    Tell me why Sativas are different than Indicas

    ^^^This is something I've thought about a lot. When I was smoking back in the 70's we never differentiated the type of high we got. It was that you smoked pot and you got high (or stoned or bjamboed....whatever you want to call it), lol! All the terms were interchangeable back then....they all...

    Nah. A vaporizer only "peels off" certain components in the organic material according to the temperature that's used. To a smoker, like me, it's not a full-spectrum flavor. Don't get me wrong....vapes are cool. I have tried several...preferring the Da Buddha, but, again, it's not the same as...

    The Old school Oaxacan

    I just got back from the rec store and bought a gram of Sour Cookies rosin. I dabbed it and it tasted delicious. It reminded me of an old strain of weed that we used to buy on occasion back in the 70's in the midwest. We called it "Oaxacan" (sounds like WAH HAwK AN). It was bright green and the...

    Any idea what strain this is / how long left

    It's likely a Sativa dominant hybrid from the shape of the thin leaf blades. You have to check the trichomes on both upper and lower buds and wait for them to average a milky-white color (with a few amber ones mixed in). Don't get impatient and harvest them when the trichomes are still clear...

    Tell me why Sativas are different than Indicas

    It could be that since Sativas take much longer to complete flowering and ripening, they get harvested too early when the trichomes are clear....and people don't get as high so they feel like they are energized -because they aren't High-high. Indicas ripen relatively early and are much more...

    Tell me why Sativas are different than Indicas

    Yes you might be right. Or, maybe it's just something that someone started saying when Indicas first started to appear on the scene. Up until that point, pretty much everything was Sativa coming from South of the border. But, as I recall, it was during the Vietnam war that GIs started bringing...

    Tell me why Sativas are different than Indicas

    I already know that people SAY that a Sativa imparts a different effect than does an Indica....The whole spiel about Indicas are more couch lock and stoney where a Sativa is more of an energetic and uplifted kind of high....yeah yeah...heard it a million times. Sativa have more THC and less...

    Freeze Drying rosin....Can it be done?

    My wife and I do a lot of pickling/freezing our garden crops each year and I'm thinking about investing in a freeze dryer ($$$$) to extend our ability to store our harvest through the winter. I'm wondering if anyone has had any experience with freeze dryers and also wondering about the concept...

    Yes, it makes it hard to compete against the current market with the trend towards high THC strains, but I've found that, over the years, the only competition that I'm in is the one with my own taste buds. I tend to be more of a flavor seeker when it comes to smoking straight flower. If I want...

    Sorry. I didn't want to hijack the intent of this thread. Yes, technology is superior now compared to what it used to be. However, because of selective hybridization, many of the unique and magical qualities found in the old landrace strains have been weakened or altogether obliterated in favor...

    I couldn't disagree more with you @ Viceman666. Genetics trumps everything else. Modern strains have been developed for yield, pest and disease resistance... and to not stink. Old landrace strains were often so acclimated to their specific growing areas they didn't always translate well into...

    A lot of times, the tools used in growing, e.g., lights, controllers, CO2, dehumidifiers, humidifiers, heaters, coolers, etc. can almost overtake the entire focus of the grow room -instead of the actual plants that are produced with them. I have sampled some of the best tasting and...

    Remo is a great grower and a really smart businessman from the looks of it. As a small-time, personal-use grower, I can't really relate to a lot of the equipment he rocks, because it's set up to accommodate a commercial style of growing. He has alliances with many companies and I'm sure he gets...

    Nextlight Mini 150w grow

    Yup! I bought one, took it out of the box, plugged it in, went blind, put it back in the box and I'm in a holding pattern until several months from now until I will be able to get it into real action. But it's a no-brainer the thing puts out a lot of light for a low-wattage fixture. Can't wait...
