    @Silky_smooth RIU Solo Cup Challenge**

    I had never heard of the strain Neville’s Haze until @Silky_smooth sent me the seeds. Here’s the description from leafly.com Neville's Haze was named after Nevil Schoemakers, founder of the Seed Bank of Holland. A tall sativa with almost pure Haze lineage. It's known for being a tall plant...

    Thanks for casting the first vote! I’m guessing you’re in UK or Ireland. My dad used words like wee and banging. He was Irish. Banana sherbet sure sounds fruity doesn’t it?!

    OK bae, I will for you! And I ask our friends following here to vote your choice from among my seeds list below. @Silky_smooth bred these seeds. I’m listing only the autos for this grow, but she sent me photos also. After people chime in, I’ll grow what the people want me to grow! Blue...

    @Silky_smooth RIU Solo Cup Challenge**

    My dear friend,@Silky_smooth, A single grass sprout has appeared. This is the first time ever for me that seeds that showed a root tip failed to produce a seedling. I have failed you, and I’m deeply apologetic. Or perhaps I’ve been had by US Customs and their infernal X-ray of international...

    @Silky_smooth RIU Solo Cup Challenge**

    There is further disappointment this morning, as neither has popped her head out to greet the world. I believe I heard one whisper to me that not only was she tired from the long journey from Europe, but wished she could be in Silky’s garden, where love and skill would nourish her. Instead, and...

    Still underground, here in 63oF/17oC Not much I can do about it today without cooking the grow room. My heat mat has failed. Point Silky

    Vegging is god!

    If you wash your car while your friends stand around, there’s always one jerk who points and says “You missed a spot”. Cannabis pretty much grows itself. It had for thousands of years before man noticed its medicinal effects, and thought to cultivate it. It still grows itself. We assist. We...

    Damn you, Silky Smooth! Always so fast out of the blocks! Maybe you should name her Genie!

    @Silky_smooth RIU Solo Cup Challenge**

    Growing against you will never be fair, as your talent, knowledge, and work ethic far exceed my own. But whether the game is golf, sailing, or growing cannabis, if one wishes to become better accomplished, hang out with better skilled people than yourself. You haven’t offended me by choosing...

    @Silky_smooth RIU Solo Cup Challenge**

    Fair enough by me, mate, and if Silky agrees, toss a bean in a cup and show her off here. But the ground leveler for me and Silky is we are using nearly identical genetics. We might better serve our RIU friends with a separate solo cup grow. It really is a fun way to hone your growing skills...

    @Silky_smooth RIU Solo Cup Challenge**

    The double asterisk denotes a twist - I challenge you, @Silky_smooth, to a grow off using seeds that YOU bred! That’s right, everyone, my dear friend Silky has sent to me from her undisclosed location in Western Europe, an exotic assortment of very special seeds! Among them is her own OG Kush x...

    Strains without branches, how do you grow them

    What a great thread. Thanks OP for starting what got a little off track, but it’s highly entertaining. Monsanto is an evil firm. Up there with Disney. And @Roger A. Shrubber also has a point about the genetics corruption, but it’s not as terminal as described, I believe. When cannabis seeds...

    Should i supercrop during flowering

    Columbo is here friends. The use of ‘aving’ indicates dictation by an Aussie or Kiwi. Could be UK. Anyway you cut it, we have a lazy mouthed stoner who gives all cannabis users a bad name. This is why I don’t care for stupid strain names. Not one bit! Makes us all look bad. Compose your...

    Should i supercrop during flowering

    I’m pretty good at cracking the code of today’s modern stoner who is either dictating, or suffering autocorrect, but I am stumped by ‘uscreduce’. Nevertheless, thank you for an entertaining and educational post.

    Pobrecita! She is so innocent still. She’ll be shackled to a pot and made to perform like a circus monkey very soon.

    Can i top again ? Is the lst done right ? Need some assistance pls

    You’ve learned a lot, clearly. I agree with @Horselover fat re topping and LST. I just hug and bend them spread out and down. Supercropping is great for when she just wants to climb into the light. And I alternate lights positioned at 12 noon: the standard - with lights at 10a or 2p position...

    Butter potency?

    Tho not scientific, I have a formula that’s useful for me. Let’s say your seven grams flower are 20% THC. 7x.2=1.4. Therefore we’ll guesstimate that 7 grams contains 1400 mg “pure” THC. Smoking is wasteful. 1400mg of decarbed edible would flatten you for a few days. Say your trim is only...
