    Popular Seeds From DC Exchange?

    My experience with the DC Exchange has been very good. That being said, finding the exact right seed to grow is not easy. It would be good to know which strains others like and what they are used for. There are hundreds of strains. Most of them seem to be new.

    Making seeds

    I do things like that all the time. It is not so much to save money on seeds. Sources of seeds are not reliable. I do it when I find a good strain so from then on I'll know what I am growing and I know it will be good. When buying seeds, I find it hard to get what I ordered. On another note...

    Harvesting Pollen Question

    I remember weed from the 60s. I admit to being old enough to remember. As far as I know there was no such thing as seedless weed. So, I would guess that a female with seeds would be at least as potent as weed in the 60s. The other thing I would think is if pollination occurs, perhaps 6 weeks...

    Harvesting Pollen Question

    That is an excellent comment because all that matters is whether it works and what the results are.

    Harvesting Pollen Question

    We all know that when a female plant is pollinated THC levels are compromised. When only one or two female flowers on a branch are pollinated, does that only effect that one branch branch or the whole plant with respect to THC levels? In general, is there a rule of thumb for just how much THC...

    Topping - law of diminishing returns

    If I didn't think it would work I wouldn't have tried it. Rather than bash cheap Chinese lights automatically, I decided to try some and and find out. I don't know how well expensive LEDs work but when I switched from T5's to the blurples my yields improved substantially. Hey, I am cheap. That...

    Topping - law of diminishing returns

    I don't grow according to professional standards so, I shouldn't be considered an authority. I have a total of 6 much despised Chinese LED blurples that say 1000 watts on each. I have no idea how many watts they actually have. I have two suspended over the plants and four suspended from the...

    Legalization?? please answer

    If a person grows at home, no one knows and it doesn't leave the house nothing is going to happen. Apartments are risky however. Some people have too many friends and that is a limitation. The more people who grow, the less risk there is for each grower. Someone who goes shoplifting with a joint...

    Topping - law of diminishing returns

    I have tried topping plants and compared results with not topping. My plants yield more when I just let them grow rather than top them. That is for just two plants at a time using side lights as well as overhead.

    FLOWERING TIPS AND TRICKS!

    What I learned early on is that in flowering, plants need much more water. Further in my experience, LEDs draw in a lot more water than CFLs. The the threat of root rot disappears in flowering especially if cloth bags or used. I have tried cropping strategies, netting and all else. My personal...

    What it is as that I know exactly what I am talking about with respect to politics and economics. I don't believe lies and that alone goes a long ways. You shouldn't try and attribute thoughts, notions and belief systems to someone who you don't know at all. Take what I said at face value and...

    Majority Backs ‘Medicare for All’ Replacing Private Plans, if Preferred Providers Stay

    Some experiences don't make sense until folks go through the experience. A lot of seniors are dying prematurely already. Many of us are using things like orthomolecular medicine remedies that regular doctors are as much as forbidden to even mention. Cannabis cures are growing by leaps and...

    Do you want to pay an extra $10,000 annually for Bernie's plan?

    I will remind everyone that insurance is not healthcare. Neither is single payer. Healthcare is what may or not occur regardless of the bureaucracy that administers it. Healthcare legislation, is always written by lobbyists and not citizens or even lawmakers. What you get from healthcare...

    Majority Backs ‘Medicare for All’ Replacing Private Plans, if Preferred Providers Stay

    Medicare for all will do for everyone what it does for seniors. Everyone will get abbreviated doctors visits. Usually a doctor won't be involved at all. Doctoring is more profitable under Medicare if the physician functions as a clerk. You will be expected to participate in every medical feeding...

    Anyone clone with peat?

    I am no expert. When I clone, all I do is put a cutling in regular growing soil, with rooting hormones of course, put it under a dome and lights. I spray the leaves constantly and keep the soil wet. There might be an angle to peat that I don't know about but peat is way too acid to grow in as...
