The primary difference between watering and flushing would be volume. For watering, under ideal circumstances, you want to saturate soil while allowing for minimal amounts of run-off. This is why the use of drip irrigation systems is so common in agriculture. Run-off water contaminated with...
Definitely looks like a Calcium deficiency, and/or an issue with ph. What is the Ph of your soil? A Ph that is too low and that cannot be explained otherwise can be a sign of calcium deficiency as Calcium is one of the main elements responsible for alkalizing soil. Don't adjust Ph with lime...
"Flushing", although a common practice amongst Cannabis growers, is one with a limited amount of information. Although most growers cannot explain the science behind the flushing process, many swear by it from experience, claiming it leads to buds that burn "cleaner" and with better flavor...
The primary purpose of flushing is to eliminate excess nitrates and phosphates which can alter the flavor. Unless your growing in a hydroponic medium, there's no way you’re going to flush every last nutrient, and even still the plant itself holds reserves. Properly done, flushing isnt exactly...
I was going to post a study that suggests that the presence of Cannabinoids inside glandular trichome heads, which are closed cellulose based structures that contain up to 10% terpenes is what prevents the widespread oxidative decarboxylation of Cannabinoid Acids such as THCA. This is likely due...
I should probably specify, I get my plants as clones from a regular source - they are always already pretty well established. What his setup is, I couldn't tell you.
“Calling something as you see it” without having all the details is the definition of arrogance, my friend. Keep in mind that doesn't mean I'm saying you don't know your stuff, you simply don't know me. Yes, I am the one who joined a website and went straight to the advanced cultivation section...
The process is referred to as Oxidative Decarboxylation. The effect isn't as pronounced as decarboxylation that occurs under high temperatures but it certainly does take place and there are many examples of it even outside of the world of Cannabis & Cannabinoids.
Your temperature seems fine in terms of keeping humidity low and preventing mold growth. Ideally, you want drying to occur as quickly as possible without the use of high temperatures that can burst glandular trichome heads and drive off some of the more volatile oils. You want the curing process...
Looking at your thousands of posts, it looks to me like you're the one who sits on this site all day regurgitating internet myths. For example, the myth that the Wynn governmen is going to impose a height limit on plants. Wrong. The federal Task Force on Cannabis Legalization and Regulation...
Hint: The term "Inc" means "Incorporation" and just because an entity is incorporated does not mean it sells a product. Plenty of corporations operate in a manner that does not involve the sale of any product or service. You should probably educate yourself a bit further instead of assuming that...
A few bits and pieces are copied and pasted, yes, mostly in regard to the final two paragraphs referencing particular studies, but the vast majority of this article is original content – and i challenge you to prove otherwise. The “Cannabis community” is filled with high & mighty arrogance like...
The presence (or lack thereof) of certain nutrients during the flowering period can not only have an effect on yield, but also an effect on glandular trichome production, Terpene synthesis, alkaloid synthesis and the synthesis of phenolic compounds. Due to the economic importance of many of...
The Importance Of The Ripening Process: How To Grow Properly “Matured” Cannabis & Increase Potency
By Cannetix
The ripening process of Cannabis, although often overlooked by novice growers, is one of the most important factors in the finished quality of the bud. The active constituents in...
