    DESPERATE FOR HELP!!! bad tasting weed

    If what you are saying is true, this may be a big factor. I have always been a little rushed with chopping them, been doing it at 8 weeks every time. I bet the imperfect growing conditions and my screw ups probably slow the maturation process even more. I will be like more patient next time...

    That was my first thought too but I went over those babies for a good chunk of time with a high powered, lighted scope and didn't see any.

    DESPERATE FOR HELP!!! bad tasting weed

    Yeah I hate to give up on soil because like Little Tommy said, it's gotta be possible if I just do it right. However, I am getting tired of dealing with the soil, and the basement is pretty inconvienient because I have to go out of the house to get there. I am really considering investing in...

    You have an excellent point about imperfect buds drying faster. I will take your's and Mr. Garcia's advice and put them in jars sooner next time.

    DESPERATE FOR HELP!!! bad tasting weed

    Thanks everyone so much for the input, it's really great. I'm sure I'll get this figured out with all your guys' help. This a legit point, but I try not to let them dry too much. And actually, the stems are never dry enough to snap before I put them in jars. The basement stays very cool...

    DESPERATE FOR HELP!!! bad tasting weed

    Thanks for giving some input friend. However I would be surprised if that was it. Humidity is pretty high because they are in a basement. They take almost 2 weeks to be even dry enough to snap. It's not necessarily awful tasting, but I have smoked some very smooth, pleasant tasting weed and...

    DESPERATE FOR HELP!!! bad tasting weed

    Hello all. I am really struggling with this and I am dying for some soft smoke so any tips would be appreciated. This is my 4th harvest this year and while the plants look pretty good (not perfect yet but getting close), I never seem to get a decent taste. I use fox farm 6 part nutes in...

    Weird spotting on some of my leaves!!! Please help

    Thanks for taking a look. Yeah they are pretty far along, this strain doesn't need much nutes. I was thinking nitrogen deficiency would give it a more pale green color starting lower on the plant...at least that my novice understanding of it. Its not killing my plants, whatever it is. But it...

    Weird spotting on some of my leaves!!! Please help

    So this is my second grow with this strain rocklock. All of these plants were grown from clones in ocean forest soil. I have been feeding every third watering according to Lady Z's feeding schedule over on planet skunk using botanicare products (pbp grow, bloom, liquid karma, and cal mag). PH...

    Is Flood and drain system my best bet?

    Hello everyone. I plan on growing again after a 3 year layoff. I am thinking hydro this time. I will be working with a 4' wide 8'tall 2' deep grow box with a 600 w air cooled fan and proper ventilation of course. I am thinking of making the top 2/3 of the box the flowering chamber and the...

    Deciding on a Sativa...opinions appreciated :)

    Hello all! I am about to start my second grow, but I can't decide on a strain. I really want to try a sativa, or mostly sativa hybrid. I really enjoy a sweet, fruity smoke and I value taste more than potency (although a strong smoke is nice too ;-) ) Flowering time isn't a big deal unless...

    Trichome question

    Howdy everyone. I have an AK47 51 days into flowering. When I was observing the trichomes today there were a few amber trichomes, several clear and a few milky. There were also a lot of trichome stocks without heads that look like little clear spikes. Are these little under developed trichs...

    How much light can I use?

    Hmmm so two for the 1000 watter and 1 for the 600. Thanks for the input everyone, I do have an aircooled hood and yes joe your right about having 4 plants. I cannot afford CO2 right now unfortunately. I won't be expanding anytime soon. So I guess I am still a bit undecided but leaning towards...

    How much light can I use?

    Howdy everyone. I currently grow with a 400 watt hps but I am thinking about upgrading to get the most out of my harvest. From what I have read, 1000 watts would be way to hot for my area (3x3). However, I run the ballast outside the tent and I can easily keep the temperatures at or below 70...
