    Where Do You Go When You Die?

    I don't really see the difference between the Islam version of living happily every after in never never land and the Christian version. It's the same shit in a slightly different form. Where someone goes when they die depends on the person and where they live. Most go to the morgue and then...

    Is this nute burn too?

    legitimacy of strains in breeder crosses

    I forgot about Kannapedia. I couldn't find a single genotype that was added to the database after 2016. As much as I'd like to see genotype databases be successful, I can't see it happening any more. Breeders are reluctant to make the genotypes of their acquired cuttings public because the...

    Pottasium def. or Nutrient burn?

    K is mobile, so deficiency starts at the bottom and moves up the plant. Burn happens at the top and affects the leaf margins.

    legitimacy of strains in breeder crosses

    Lumpy's business is growing flowers so most likely either a greenhouse worker took a cutting or it's a rename of something else. Or both! Some breeders might have the real leaked cutting while others have fakes!!

    legitimacy of strains in breeder crosses

    You forgot the fourth way, someone takes an old cut and passes it along as the Cut of the Month. It just has to pass through a few hands before coming to the breeder via someone they "trust 100%" and it ends up being chucked. Breeders are under intense pressure to make chucks with parents...

    Should I defoliate more???

    If you say defoliation works then prove it. It doesn't work both ways. There is a whole Wikipedia page about this. Especially pay attention to the part about shifting the burden of proof. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Burden_of_proof_(philosophy) The truth is, you have no idea if...

    Should I defoliate more???

    A lot of growers claim that removing leaves somehow makes your buds bigger or better or something but they have no reliable evidence to demonstrate that. We just have to take their word for it. Well, that is bro-science bullshit. Just like burying crystals in your soil, and days of darkness...

    Should I defoliate more???

    Defoliation is an unproven technique like flushing, boiling your roots, putting a rusty nail through the stem, etc...

    Telling Sex By Smell

    Sometimes there is a kernel of truth to the myth. Perhaps decades of chuckers selecting males by rubbing stems instead of comparing progeny has resulted in males with good smelling stem rubs! That's why I switched to fems, both parents are selected for having dank female flower phenotype...

    Should I defoliate more???

    You should defoliate more if you want to reduce the amount of food available to your buds.

    Making female seeds (breeders help)

    If you have grown this genotype before as a female then you're probably right. However, could be a real male from random pollen in the air. I have no idea what the relative odds are but I suspect contamination is more likely. There is no way to know without sending it in for a genetic sex...

    Ron Jeremy: US adult film star indicted on 34 sex crime charges

    He's big but is he really huge? For huge he's lacking in both length and girth.

    Scale insects

    I haven't had them infest my Cannabis but I have had them on other houseplants. They grew slowly enough that I could just wipe them off with alcohol soaked paper towels. They start in the soil and crawl up the stem before fixing themselves up on the plant, so some Tanglefoot or other sticky...

    Looking for opinions on how to fight Botrytis: Immunox, Captan, Regalia, Liquid Copper etc.

    Don't get me wrong, I'm hugely jealous of legal outdoor growers and your trees, but if your climate isn't suited to growing Cannabis and you must resort to stepping on it then maybe you should consider climate control. It doesn't take a lot of space to grow enough for your head if you're not...

    Should you cut off fan leaves during flower( a simple poll just yea or no please)

    That's a cool story bro, but what about the evidence? Still not seeing any evidence beyond "my bro defoliates and he grows fire."

    Should you cut off fan leaves during flower( a simple poll just yea or no please)

    Is it harming the big buds you're leaving on the plant? How do you know? What good evidence is there that "lollipopping" has any effect? The null hypothesis is these techniques are not helpful, that a healthy plant with all of its leaves is best. It takes evidence to reject the null...
