    How do you properly clean and maintain a bong for the best flavor and smoking experience?

    I let mine go until there’s a thick sludge instead of water, think La Brea tar pits. Then you can scrape out the resin and smoke it in a chamber pipe to resinate the nice fresh bud inside, it makes it much more potent. Reminds me of high school days. JK, I use iso and salt, shake it up...

    I’ve been busy this last couple weeks, hopefully things will slow down soon. Here’s a few plant pics for hump day though. The Malawi getting bushy and big. The Golden Tiger is just tall and lanky, but the buds are forming up nicely finally. And the Puck is getting closer, a couple weeks...

    Thermoelectric wine cooler drying and curing - DIY

    What @by2 said. You are looking at doing a lotus cure if using a compressor fridge. You definitely don’t need a dehumidifier in a compressor fridge, it will dry your buds to fall apart crispy in days if you don’t protect them in a pizza box or paper bags, etc. lots of info if you search for...

    Can i move to the next step?

    If it were me testing out the difference I’d take one cola now and dry/ cure, one the next week, and look at where the plant is after that.

    Can i move to the next step?

    IMO a more euphoric high is not from when you harvest but genetics. Sativas are well known to have a more energetic and happy high. Most of todays hybrids do not, and harvesting early does not change that. If you are looking for a euphoric high I would start with checking out different...

    I keep the temp at 55f myself. The Koolatron will go lower, but that seems to me to be the sweet spot. It also means even with temp swings it never really goes above 60.

    The built in TEC will cycle to maintain temp, and if the room gets too hot it may have difficulty keeping up, but that would be around 90f and higher from what I’ve seen. That is when I have my target temp at 12C, or about 55F. Some people run at 20c which is what the Cannatrol default is, so...

    I used to use Boveda packs but don’t now, I have grove bags I put them in after drying and curing until I need the space in the cooler again. The smell and taste is great, you will see soon enough, I get compliments all the time.

    Thermoelectric wine cooler drying and curing - DIY

    I have done both hang drying first and just putting them in directly after harvest, I don’t hang dry first anymore. I have been setting my temp at 12C and lowering rh by .5 to 1% a day, starting at .5 and going quicker if I want after the first few days. Watch the water drip tray the first few...

    Looks like it’s working exactly as it should. The starting rh will be determined by how wet the bud is going in, mid to high 70’s is normal.

    Is this bud rot

    It’s ok to water daily when they need it, I’ve seen plants outside need watering 3 times a day. If you can see they are dry and/or feel the weight of the pot, by all means give them water.

    Is this bud rot

    That’s generally a sign of bud rot, check them well and get rid of any mold as it can spread quickly. Sometimes it’s hard to see if inside the bud itself. best of luck, it’s very discouraging but keep with it, we’ve all had it happen.

    It’s been 7 weeks since flipping to 12/12. The puck is still putting on weight, I think she may finish around 10 weeks. She’s getting some nice frost and is super sticky with a burnt rubber skunk smell with fruity undertones. I top dressed with a couple handfuls of tomato tone and top watered...

    Once you go SIP, you’ll never go back to drip!

    Seed Germination strategy 2024

    I soak seeds in a glass for 12 hours or so, then put in a small pot with soil and water. I have used H2O2 and not, it doesn’t hurt to use the peroxide I’m sure, can’t say I’ve seen a bid difference in germ rates, they usually sprout either way. One thing I’ve noticed, when you start soaking...

    Have I gone too far

    IMO you have about 3 weeks left, they look fantastic, it would be a shame to chop them now. Lots of white hairs, and the buds will fatten up. Unless you have a mold problem I’d wait.

    Well, I didn’t get as much work done as I wanted, but it’s a beautiful night and I’m done working. Time for a bowl and a glass of wine, got some hot sauce ready to bottle so might do that later.

    I really like it, esp the CO2, temp and rh all in one place. It’s the Inkbird IAQM-128w, and is wireless so I can check the numbers from anywhere. I’m

    SIP’n with Hook Daddy

    It’s 6 weeks from flip now, and the plants are all doing well, the GT has finally slowed down the stretch, I still have to keep pulling branches lower but less and less often. The Malawi is starting to bulk up a bit, and the Puck is just cruising along, getting frosty and sticky and smelling...
