no need to burn them. As soon as you see they are males, chop them, cut it up a little. Preheat oven to 250, when it hits that turn it off, and put a tray with your males on it. 15 min or so they should be dry, grind up in a blender or something, funnel into a tube, cap, butane :) Your males...

mel frank in several of his books talks about testing samples, and he found that at points later in flowering samples taken after 8 hours of dark tested up to 10% higher in THC. Notice the up to, and how it depended on when in flowering (I know it's in the insiders guide, one of his books)...

I would hire a consultant from one of the med friendly states, hand them the checkbook, and let someone else deal with the building :) really though, there are too many ways to go... could do a 1k per plant, grow some giant trees... or a 30 plant sog under 1-2 1k's... Either way it sounds...

I make oil out of trim. last batch I got 1.3 grams using 13.5 oz of butane (totaling around $6) and 2oz of mostly leaves and stems (cut up male). I usually get a little more from bud trim. That's worth it to me...

urine is primarily ammonia, salt, and other trace elements. Ammonia is a poison, and should be converted to more soluble forms of nitrogen before used on plants (this is accomplished by organic bacterias, and can take some time). Also salt buildup can cause all sorts of problems for you. Then...

If I'm remembering my biology, flowers proceed fruit. So for instance, on a fruit tree, you will see a bloom (flowers). Those flowers become pollinated, and out of them grows a fruit. You want to keep in mind that the fruit isn't separate from seeds, it is part of the seed, think of it as...

buds are flowers. Buds are made up of bracts which contain an ovule. This is a flower. Buds have lots of them.

So I apologize for the lack of updates. Things just don't move fast in this hobby... Since I last updated we have harvested all the small 'placeholder' plants and replaced them with proper, mature, genetics (didn't bother updating, but they were each around 5 grams, not really even worth...

thing is hash and oil just don't really look all that different. You get a little variation in color with hash, but in general it's just not the candy that budshots are :) I'd never even think to take pictures of my oil... It basically looks just like PappaBear's, only difference is I use a...

yep, 60 f is toward the low end of what you want at night for prolonged periods. If it's 60 in their day it's too cold. Not to say that is the only factor leading to slow growth, but it is certainly the most obvious.

Most things aren't this one sided unfortunately. I can guarantee you I'm not over-watering, but it's also likely that you live in a completely different environment than the OP or myself, or others. There are also other factors that can cause it, completely unrelated to a grow. For someone it...

o_O so many things can be at work and you don't give much info so it's really hard to say. Time release nutes can be dangerous because you never really know how much are being released. With nutes over doing it can cause some serious issues, whereas going too little will lead to slow growth...

Why you feel you have to dupe people into reading your thread is beyond me. Didn't even bother reading your question. I'll save my time for the plethora of people who can properly form a thread title.

think of genetics as the potential of the plant. How close you come to hitting that potential is environmental. In short, you won't produce top grade weed from inferior genetics. However, top grade genetics won't guarantee top grade weed.

along with all of the above, I find it a lot easier to keep the moisture level properly in smaller pots.

If in soil you could cover the top of the soil with decorative potting sand. Fungus gnats only live in the top 1/4-1/2" of exposed soil. The sand dries out too fast, and the new eggs that are laid will desiccate long before they can hatch. I'm sure all the chemicals and stuff work as well, I...

other than heating alcohol on a stove which is unsafe, the oil itself is safe. There's nothing in everclear or bud that will leave a toxic residue. Alcohol isn't the greatest non-polar solvent though, so it picks up a lot of impurities like chlorophyll, sugars, and carbon. The longer it soaks...

curing can increase potency by allowing more time for cannabinoids to be converted/activated, but it's not going to be a huge difference, it's not going to turn mid-grade into super kind. It sounds to me like you just have low potency weed. could be genetics, could be environment, could be...

assuming the pollen came from a genetically female plant (hermie). This is likely in an indoor grow, but neigboring plants, pollen on clothing, or even pollen that might be in a bag you buy, can all pollinate. Not guaranteed to be female, but odds are it's from female hermie pollen and female...

24-48 hours dark is common before chopping. Going much longer than that and you will start to have a negative effect on the plant. I'd think you could closet it in the day and light it at night if it's not ready for a dark period.
