    A statement to all you dissing cfl's!!

    CFLs are fine for the most part. HPS can get you more in terms of yeild, but it is also aided by you having to upgrade your grow space for ventilation and exhaust etc just to accomodate using that light medium. I've been growing the past 18 months or so using CFL and I've been impressed by what...

    12 weeks flowering (hawaiian skunk)

    Nice looking plants, it'd be a shame for you to chop them early, as they could go at least another 2 weeks from the next monday you plan to chop on. Still, it looks tasty and will get your high either way. Kudos

    Taking weed from Amsterdam to Ireland

    It's a tough call. I've gone through customs in the past with no problems, but I did have to throw what I had this one time as I spotted a dog. It can happen, but it's not like you're going to Bulgiara or anywhere shady like that where they lock you away for 10 years. So as always, it's at your...

    Curing Snow White

    The colour merely represents what stage of the flowers' lifecycle it's at when you chop it. As the plant it self has so many flowers on it, some will have matured quicker than others. I harvested some Lemon Skunk recently where the main cola had a lighter tint to its colour compared to the...

    EXPECTED YEILD / 600w HPS?

    They'll grow as big as you want them to. You'll get maybe 3oz per plant dry if you want it done quick, maybe nearer 5oz per plant if you vegged a little longer. It's all down to time, as you have good conditions for growing large plants.

    eAsiest way to cure 10lbs??

    Charity shops, or bulk buying jars. I'm sure there are places online where you can bulk buy jars at cost.

    Should I harvest tonight??

    You have to get them in before the first frost, otherwise they'll be dead before morning. If they look ready to the point where you feel the climate will only affect the quality, you might want to harvest. It's hard to tell without pictures.

    Smell Change during/after harvest

    The smell is never fantastic by the end of drying, cure it for a week or so and see if the smell has changed. Did the stems snap cleanly before you put the buds in jars? that can make a difference.

    First Harvest has begun!

    Some interesting reading there, along with what look to be very nice plants. I can now understand why so many English decide to move to Spain. Nice going man +rep

    Are we alone?

    As a species, and as a civilisation by our own definition, we're not alone, but certainly lonely. There is no doubt in my mind that there are other intelligent lifeforms out there, but in terms of accessability we may as well be alone.

    white widow/top 44 52days flowering how much longer?

    Very nice. Have you got some sort of magnification you can make use of? White Widow can be lethal if you let it grow to it's absolute best.

    Landlord Has My Energy Bill

    As long as you pay the bill, who gives a crap what the extra 40 or so a month goes toward. Any landlord that would ask such questions is not worth sticking with, that's just prying too far in to one's own business.

    sativa 12 weeks

    I'm at 14 on a sativa of my own, and they've been 100% cloudy for like 2 weeks, i predict there being 2 more and it'll be chop time. I upped it to 13hours of dark just to push it along though.

    increased yeild with photoperiod

    When I was first learning how to grow, I used to bring the light period down to 8 hours for the last 3 weeks or so of flowering. Though I've yet to find anything conclusive that would point in the direction of it improving the yield over a 12 hour light period. If anything it maybe brought the...

    Purple Kush Ready????

    It looks like you could push that for another few weeks. Kush crossed with a Haze sounds like a late bloomer. Outdoor crops aren't something I know a great deal about, but I'm sure you could find some excellent pest control advice on the forum somewhere, as I think chopping early can sometimes...

    Does weed bring u closer to god?

    It can enhance your God complex, if that counts. Otherwise it's a case of whether you believe in that stuff or not. I'm sure pothead Physicists etc muse on the compliexities of fundemental therum and the like, their own interpretation of 'God'. It's important to utilise your brainpower either...

    A lot of yellow leaves

    Some leaves turning yellow during flowering is not always of the greatest concern. As the larger fan leaves are only really vital for vegatitve growth. If you have some flowering nutrients it should correct any underlying defficiencies, otherwise it's looking alright for you. I never realised...

    How much longer: your opinions please!

    I'd be inclined to say a month also. There's a lot of new growth, it will fill out a lot more during the latter stages of the flowering cycle.

    How much longer ak47

    Don't trust the seed packet, it is just a guideline. That bud looks like it needs another 3-4 weeks before it'll be ready to chop. Ak-47 is famed for being a very stinky plant while in flowering, so you'll know it's closer when the grow space becomes more pungent.

    Nicely done. You should reap a nice late autumn harvest on those.
