    Shrooms from cow pastures

    I have not. It’s wonderful that mushrooms are ubiquitous globally regardless of conditions. Those resemble Panaeolus cyanescens which grew wild here in Wash DC area for years but mysteriously failed to grow in 2019 and 2020. Mushroom covid maybe. I find it laughably ironic that to grow...

    HELP!! Week 3 is it to soon to top or LST

    “HELP!! Is it too soon to top or LST?” and later, “u think I should top her or fim?” Where to start with you? I’m certain you’ll detest me and I’ll be a pariah here for months but REALLY?!?!!! 1) your title is misleading. It’s not week 3. It’s a clone. But for those of you who are seeking a...

    from redcup to final pot transplanting?

    It works either way. Pro farmers usually go from tiny pots straight into the ground. If she’s photo and you go from solo to 5 gal, she’ll appear to grow slowly both because she’ll look small in the pot, and she’s growing roots to fill available space. I’ve tried everything up to 15g and 5 is my...

    Please help find why my plants were small - organic coco grow

    Fabric pots require the making of a circular ditch around the roots. When it’s watered it briefly resembles a moat around a castle. This prevents water running out and down without penetrating the soil

    Yucatán is loaded with great fishing. And kite surfing. And hot European women visitors wearing only thongs. And astonishingly, one of the best pizzas I ever ate (I’m a native NYCer) was is downtown Cancun. Not the tourist area. But they fish for boquinete, which is like a red snapper who has...

    Visit on instagram @grow.sisters They’re a kooky bunch of fun ladies who know their shit in Humboldt County California. Scroll thru their stuff and you’ll see how they’ve constructed hoop houses using pvc. They include a short vertical section at the base that gives plants room to grow even at...

    My mouth watered! What a triumvirate of flavors. Yea when ya hit a school of dolphin, they strike hard don’t they? Once bottom fishing for grouper, a 20kg sailfish appeared at the gunwale and teased us with a surface slapping show of his sail. The mate reached with a gaff but he was just a bit...

    Who asked about a cheap green house? Sorry but I couldn’t find the post to ID you properly. There’s no need to buy a kit that consists of conduit and sheet plastic. A system of long, flexible sections of tubing that connect to ground supports via T fittings can be created using aluminum conduit...

    That is the macdaddy of all dolphin! Never seen one that big and battered looking They are considered the smallest of the sail game fish, but I bet he weighs more than a small marlin How’d you cook it? Sashimi? How’d it taste? Thanks for the pic. I miss deep sea fishing

    Flux training

    She’s beautiful @Silky_smooth. I’ll post pics of my minis later today. I’ve given up hope for a big harvest on this cold temp grow. But I’ll have a busy Spring and be back in action soon. Still have 2019’s outdoor harvest to smoke. I found a 2oz bag in my sock drawer yesterday!! I had put away...

    First time grow. Low budget

    I live trim, meaning while roots are still in dirt. Usually in stages over a period of days near harvest so I don’t work myself to exhaustion. I do this because fan and sugar leaves wrap around the flowers as they dry, making trimming more tedious. This method delivers dispensary ready nugs...

    And maybe pay less per kilowatt!

    Banked pollen

    I can’t speak to the science of this claim about extended shelf life, but it rings true, as my difficulty has always been excess moisture carried into storage. When pollinating female flowers, I have sometimes shaken an entire male, but more frequently use a Qtip to surgically pollinate...

    Banked pollen

    I’ve successfully pollinated girls with freshly collected dust from males, but every attempt to store and use it later has failed to be viable. I think I may have been putting it up too moist.

    Ready for harvest?

    @fragileassassin , I agree completely. I barely know what I’m doing as a grower, and my flower delivers a flavor and stone unmatched by lab grown/store bought. And it’s not my imagination- I burned one with a young coworker last Saturday. After, we went our separate ways. Today I asked what he...

    Is this curling indicative anything?

    Precisely that. The trichs are much heavier on one leaf edge, thus restricting the leaflet to grow out evenly. So, yes, it’s indicative that your weed is gonna be dank!

    Please help-first time grower

    I love your story! Drop, neglect, harvest. We shouldn’t do that to our beloved crop, but we do sometimes. I do a lot. It proves what I admire most about cannabis: her resilience in the face of difficult conditions. You’ve got a sticky, amber thumb, friend. Keep at it!

    First grow 3rd week of flower... any and all suggestions welcome

    Haha! Search only gets you so far. It’s a personal preference like any other. Some folk like their steaks rare, but most prefer it more medium, and some eat well charred, dry meat, and love it. Better yet, it’s like chocolate and vanilla. Sometimes you prefer one over the other, but you’ll enjoy...
