weed smoothies
shit that actually sounds good
here's a few methods tahoe recommended
Put water in a blender. Add a large handful of leaves, stems, seeds and weak weed. Put it in 3 or 4 ice cubes and blend it for 3-4 minutes or so. Just make sure everything is chopped very finely. Second, you will need a gold reusable coffee filter (or 90-line silk screen). Get a large mouth quart mason jar, and strain your Slurpee mixture through it. Once you have strained all the liquid through, run some more water through the leaf material to wash any extra trichomes through.
After a few minutes you will notice a white collection at the bottom of the jar, this is the trichomes. Let the trichomes settle at the bottom for about 20-30 minutes. Next, pour off the top 2/3's of the filtered green water, leaving the settled trichomes at the bottom. Add more ice water to get the green stuff out, and let the trichomes settle at the bottom for about 20 minutes again. Repeat this step one more time. Pour off as much water as you can without pouring off trichomes, filter the resulting trichome/water mix through a paper coffee filter. The trichomes will not go through the paper, but the water will. When all the water has gone through, slightly wet, cold, mass of trichomes will be left. They will be easy to handle and to press.

The Alcohol Method
Take your stash (stems, seeds, weak weed) and place them in a covered pot, with enough alcohol to cover everything. Isopropyl alcohol is commonly available at pharmacies. Look for alcohol that is 99% pure. Denatured alcohol also works well. Sometimes isopropyl alcohol is called rubbing alcohol. Now carefully boil the mixture on an electric stove. Be careful: the alcohol is very flammable! After 45 minutes of heating you can strain the solids out, saving the alcohol. Now, repeat the process with the same residuals, but with fresh alcohol. When the second boil is over, remove the solids again, combine the two quantities of alcohol and boil again until you have a syrupy mixture. This syrupy mixture will contain much of the THC formerly hidden in the stash.

Making Cannabutter
Bring a pot of water to a rolling boil, then put a small amount of butter in the water. The butter melts, and mixes in with the water. Then put the grass or stash in
and boil it. Now all the grass will be riling around with the water and the butter. The THC dissolves into the butter. Stir the stuff regularly. After half an hour of cooking the grass, strain out the grass and stash and squeeze all the juice out of it, and put the liquid in the fridge.
A few hours later, the mixture is cold enough so that the cannabutter has solidified to the surface. It will look kind of scummy, but it's just enchanted butter. Scoop it out and retain it in a bowl or a jar. The cannabutter can be used just like butter, in brownies or cake.

well i started school again so been real busy

bud shots smart phone sux
root stimulator i used for rooting bonsai clones
not the price of this big bottle compared too the stuff in the hydro store
i think everything in the hydro stores are overpriced
a future clone
in solution
into the humidity dome under ott lights and cfl

heres some info about cfls
vanity strip for bathroom mirror for $14 and $2 12 foot extension from lowe's hardware
cut the female end off
opened up the vanity strip to reveal the wiring
took the ground wire
wrapped it around a metal part in the the fixtures case
connected the the wires together
in this case polarity doesnt matter
just attach any wire to wire
securely taped with electrical tape
got this from the pet store
added for uvb and uva light to stimulate trich production
plug it in

alot has happened
Here are the clones now
Instead of flushing i just switched out new res' with better bubble wands
glued down with aquarium silicone and let dry fo 48hrs
The wands from the beginning of the grow

DIY pump thingy to minimize lifting
I cleaned up that day btw
Hygrozyme to protect from root rot after killing males
Bud shots
Me drying a premature little grasshopper

i have a problem
I notice that some of the cola leaves on 1 of my plants started to shrivel and it looks like its maturing prematurely
the shrivled leave then started to dry on one plant then on the other next to it
the hairs on one plant are turning red though
i used ph down and got them to 6.4 for good nute uptake but no change
any suggestions?

I have the same problem I thought it was radiant heat and was told it could be salt buildup because of using dwc. I used the same exact system as you but when I harvested I didn't see any salt buildup in the bucket at all. So I added more fans to the room and the same thing happened again! Idk what it is but Im curious to hear replies back since I have the same issue.

Im now thinking it could be from the room not being ventilated regularly or from tds jumping around.
I have a cap temp/hum controller that turns on the vent fan when the temp gets too high. but if the temp isn't high enough it doesnt kick on, also at night the temp never gets high enough to kick on the fan. when the light is on it does vent frequently though. just not at night.
For TDS I have been raising it 200 ppm every week until the 5th week(1250ppm) then I start decreasing 200ppm every week until harvest.
IF this method sounds like it could cause a problem let me know!!!
Also what are your methods?
