I am the lucky beneficiary of free seeds from twenty20 thanks to bdeegan. However, I don't quite understand their grow cycle. I know they are photo periods that finish quickly but how do you know when to do the flip? How long is the growing cycle? Are they really ready to harvest after 70...

I read somewhere, I think in this forum, that the dregs from vaping can be reprocessed into something useful like hash, tincture or edibles. Is this true? Has anyone here done this?

As bare ass naked as a new born baby. Miss Hot Cakes for your viewing pleasure!

Picture #1: Left is Hot Cakes, right is pound cake. Picture #2: Front L is Pound Cake, R is GG#4, Rear L is Hot Cakes, R is Sweet Gelato. Sorry, I have problems with tech.

I am growing 4 different strains and they will simply not amber up. They are at day 100 and look great. By all outward indications they are ready to harvest except for showing some amber. I mean almost none. I do not desire a lot of amber, at most 10% but they simply squat there and refuse...

I have been planning my grows around the concept that auto's do not do well in hot environments. This is (allegedly) do to the fact that the Ruderalis strain which causes auto's to flower on their own originates from Siberia, an obviously cold environment (at least for now). On the other hand...

Twenty five days from seed. Rear two are Hot Cakes (thank you GoingToFast ) front right is GG4 and left is Sweet Gelato. All are doing well with no issues. This is approximately my 21st indoor grow (I have lost count)

Today I learned a new life lesson. "Never leave deer repellent in a pressure sprayer, in a warm garage, for four weeks".

Somehow during one of my hazy shopping sprees I purchased some Liberty Haze seeds. I was reviewing my next grow and realized that Liberty Haze is a Tall Plant. My tent is only 60" tall. Has anyone ever grown this strain indoors? Just how big can it get? My likely limit is a 40" plant. I can...

Is it better to have your light suspended higher up at high brightness or lower down at a dimmer light level, assuming that the canopy coverage will be the same in each case?

Howdy Fellow Growers. Does anyone have any experience or opinions on the use of two quart jars for curing? I am considering this option as I am most happily running out of one quart jars.

May your buds be big, your yields be high and all of your plants be fine. Happy Holliday's

I have not previously posted about my grows progress. However, a number of you asked me to post my progress in my first all coco/perlite grow. This picture is 18 days from germination. As mentioned, this is my first coco/perlite grow. They are being watered as I would in soil for plants this...

Well I asked the questions and listened to the answers. I am starting my next grow using coco for the first time. Perhaps this will help my yields somewhat. Depending upon how heavy wet coco is compared to soil, I may be able to move from three to five gallon pots on subsequent grows. We'll see...

I have been growing steadily, at least three grows a year for the last five years. My quality and yields have increased with each effort. The quality is absolutely kick-ass, but I am still dissatisfied with the yield end of the equation. I have been using the GH Trio for quite a while. I was...
