    my outdoor grow in india (12 latitude)

    understand on wanting to keep her whole until the end, i don't snip little buds myself but others do drying it is a bit of a bugger, low heat in an oven will do it, bud will not taste too good though 1 week of air drying is better, but by that time your plant has moved on and the point of the...

    new york outdoor how do they look?

    sounds like another gut wrenching NY outdoor season i knew some bad shit was going down when that one nasty storm front went across the whole state! but this is why the thrill of outdoor growing here is so high, the odds are stacked against you, when a great plant happens it's a rush of its own

    the myth of hermie trait dominance?

    fair point, i've left out the posts/threads with other growers that grow out hermie seeds on occasion the balance of 'studies' tend to favor some good value in what many consider crappy hermie seeds treat the herms as males, enjoy the bounty of the free femmes myth was a strong word, guilty of...

    my outdoor grow in india (12 latitude)

    pistils turning means going from the white color to something else, usually brown they dry up as the bud goes into maturity, i do see brown pistils on your plant you can cut a small side bud, dry, and test it out

    my outdoor grow in india (12 latitude)

    it will be tough to make a harvest call from pics, you watch and take your best shot the lower fans starting to 'rust' is very normal, plant is beginning to draw nutrients from the fans to the buds, that is a good thing my guess is a couple more weeks, my gut reaction is a plant that looks this...

    the myth of hermie trait dominance?

    so far, and this is admittedly a small sample, stress has not been a factor some genetics have the stress response, others not so much i have a 3rd plant in progress, but it may be a cross, not an S1, but still the same hermie mother no trace of hermie though there were some hot spells in the...

    Thwarting Dogs

    i have a healthy respect for dogs and their abilities, but there comes a point where they are not the main risk digging leaves its own trail, and LEO is good at finding buried stuff if they suspect there is buried stuff

    my outdoor grow in india (12 latitude)

    how long has the papaya been in flower? certainly don't want to cut before 8 weeks(or very rarely) plants look pretty green, often color will drain from the big fans as maturity progresses pistils have turned, but they can mislead, have you checked the trichomes yet?

    Thwarting Dogs

    i know dogs are good, but airtight containers buried in the ground should be pretty safe depends a lot on how large a stash and how determined the search is

    Thwarting Dogs

    i suppose that is true to a point, but even molecular hydrogen, which is about the most permeable molecule there is, does not make much progress through glass hydrogen does penetrate steel more easily, though easy is comparative complicated topic to be sure

    Thwarting Dogs

    i find the thread reasonable, and this is interesting, enough molecules can through steel to be dog detectable? on the other hand, glass jars should be impervious to molecular transport, at least for the glass part i had seen a method where the jars are immersed in a solution of bleach, all...

    ? about hermi seeds growing hermies

    all hermies? maybe, maybe not, depends on the genetic stew inside, which can be tough to predict i had the same deal, hermie plant with a bunch of S1 seeds, grown out 2 one was beautiful, no hermie trace at all, the other was a full on hermie just like mom

    Mold during flowering (basement grow)

    i don't know about products that you spray on buds, i'm very wary of 'stuff' on the buds, might be OK if you can reduce the humidity, that's probably better, not sure how practical it's going to be in a basement, basements are damp and changing that may not be practical there are strains that...

    super croping help!!!!!!!!!!!!

    it can be done, i just did supercropping for the 1st time in my current grow was well into flower if the stem is too stiff, that you don't want to bend, it will break but as some others told me, they bend their females as they need to, they can take quite a bit of punishment(usually, there are...

    A Fool and a Hermie Seed

    7 1/2 weeks of flower, weight is packing on and pistils turning but the biggest plus is no trace of hermie blossoms, that's the hold your breath part little smell unless touched, kind of a weedy-spicey-onion odor hoping i can get something like older mexican weeds, but likely that's just hope...

    Busted - Personal grow in Raleigh, NC, USA - Ask me anything (AMA :)

    very good thread, we all need to be informed and threads like these put out critical info very sorry for OP's bad time, i wonder what even the Barney Fife's think they're accomplishing with this kind of wasted effort moral of story, grow shops/stores just aren't needed, i know they have cool...

    Busted!!!!!

    the police can put on a convincing job that they're fair, will deal with you straight, and so on it don't work that way, they're only interested in building a good case, which means your ass in a sling if they work it that way they threaten to get what they want however, if the OP's case as it...
