  • And obviously going on a limb to say it’s understood that this is a hybrid version of authentic landrace Thai as idk if the original even exists today. But half the fun is the search.

    No clue. I grow what looks tasty in the pictures and it's usually Indica.
    I’ve just started ten beans and all ten are up and awake now. I’ve always been a fan of the old school authentic Thai and have been in search of since. I came across this auto flower stain and decided to try it. First time ever doing autos and I’m also going outdoors. Any tips or advice on this practice would be welcomed.
    Am I doing something wrong for my Posts/comments to say unapproved?

    HA! No. Siriusfourside will get on them.
    The forum people are working on a new something-or-other to keep the spam people away.
    I've been here for a few years but was getting unapproved left and right. One word that was tripping the green screen was 'town.'
    They're working on it.
    Absolutely! Would you like a couple of Tutankhamen?

    Thank you, no. The only reason I'm doling them out to you people is because I've had these for a yearish and I've been miracled with our endemic Scarlet family seeds. I'm set for a few more grows.
    Plus, I'm an Indica beard.
    Might be a few weeks before the dole. I need to see how my current seeds come up.
    My friend how are you? Recently I pulled the trigger and ordered myself a rosin press. I think I have a pretty good grasp of how to make the rosin but I am completely bewildered about what a decent dab rig would be for a greenhorn like myself. I have seen here on GWE that you are a bit of an aficionado when it comes to the art of dabbing and I was hoping you could point me in the right direction for choosing a rig for myself? Thanks - CB

    Howdy!
    What makes a piece of glass a dab rig is a crystal banger or a nail. You can turn your weed bong into a dab rig with one of those two pieces.
    What makes a purpose made dab rig a dab rig is a percolator inside the water chamber. The rig I have cost $40. It is a simple, straight piece. No frills. If you have money, and like frills, you can frill your head off.
    My preference in any weed related piece is a banger/bowl that is away from my face. I don't like having to cross my eyes to see what I'm doing and I do not care to set my facial hair on fire.
    You will need a torch of some sort. Lots of folks use hand-held butane torches. They burn through a lot of butane, real fast. I like a proper Bernz-o-matic torch mounted on a can of Coleman propane.
    I also have a laser thermometer I use to check my dab temperatures. Temperature is important and judging yours takes some experience, without a laser.
    Buy the simplest piece you can. If it took the glass blower more than five minutes to make it, it took too long.
    Avoid anything battery or electric powered.

    All good info. Thanks for the enlightenment. The press is supposed to be delivered today so I'm excited to get started.
    Hello
    I have searched with the info description looking for help on getting buds more compact cannot seem to see it although i am sure it is here somewhere any help locating one or more of those posts would be greatly appreciated
    thanks
    Hi Gingerbeard,
    I see from your signature that you have started a coco grow on 1-20. I'm new to coco and will be starting my first grow at the end of next month. Are you planning to post about it? If so, I thought I'd follow along and see how the GDP does. I'm assuming that is GrandDaddyPurple. I am not far away from harvest for my first auto run. One of the plants being GDP. But I digress. I'm curious about the process from germination to first pot up and the amount of nutrients to provide the seedling. I saw an article that said start the seeds in rapid rooters or some such, and at the appropriate time put the whole thing in its final home. That sounds easy enough but I'm wondering if there are other options. Seems logical there should be other options but so far I'm not finding them. I must not be asking google the right question.

    Hey-ya GE. The links below are self explanatory: This grow and the last.
    I sprout in towel and go to coco. 1/4 dose nutes to get the seedlings started. 1/2 dose until the first set of leaves come out. Then full strength. I oxygenate my water just before watering.
    I've never tried rapid rooters. Too many people come back with issues. Some don't but enough do that I do my towel to seed thing. The number one issue is people put the seeds in upside-down. Some water too much or not enough. A seed planted directly to soil or coco upside down, it will right itself, eventually. Sprouting first lets you see if there are any duds and makes sure you know which end is down.
    The GDP did great in my last grow. Until... well... skip to the end. I'll keep posting at least once a week.

    Hi, sorry to tag you last night. Jay had a TBI, he gets frustrated easily. He was communicating with me through the phone, texting pics and questions, very respectful and appreciative. I have physical disabilities from injuries but my brain works so I was trying to help him. Since he got the septoria everything went south with his plant. I know nothing about that, been struggling with daily headaches since July and trying to keep my own plants healthy but I hated to see him give up. He told me that a new seed he started was doing the same thing so I suggested a thorough sanitizing, new pots, soil and to try a photo strain from the list Nebula suggests for beginners. Everybody wants to auto for faster turnaround but I told him that sometimes it's only 4-6 weeks difference and you get a lot more yield for a little more time with more forgiving plants. And I suggested he use a soil that's more common here so that more people would know about it, and have experiences or suggestions. So to babble, I didn't want to 'talk about him' in the forums. Peace.

    Not sure what you mean that you tagged me last night. I saw the posts. Saw different things in each.
    A little I've read about larger scale agriculture is, if you're growing tomatoes, say, plant a different crop that is not susceptible to disease. Do it for two years. I think I mentioned he should start everything from scratch.
    I tend to trail off when someone keeps asking questions that have been answered. Ask my ex. I also trail off when my opinion is overridden, but pay attention to what I missed. I had a cousin who had brain damage from bad anesthesia when she was five. 60 years old with the mind of a suspicious and angry child. I'm not sure if she could read. Funny thing is, I had no problem letting her watch my kids when they were infants. Her heavy suspicion and anger could be wiped away with gentleness and a protectiveness that I know she would give her life for my child.
    Sounds like you're giving Jay all you can. Unfortunately, it doesn't seem he's able to pick it up.
    One more quick. A buddy was taking an entry level math class. He had a hard time with the number line because he couldn't understand negative numbers. Like nothing below zero existed.
    I purchased the Monterey garden insect spray recommended by this site. So it shouldn't be poison. Should it?

    Answered best I could on your thread...
    Hey man. I wanted to apologize. I felt i was a too harsh on you. Not that it excuses it but i have been dealing with some life issues and i realize i have not been usual self. Honestly you are one of the good ones on the site. I hope you come back but i will probably take a break from the site to deal with what i need to so i dont take it out on the people on the forums. I ain't perfect but i'll try and be better.

    Gingerbeard
    Uh, okay. Forgiven although I don't know what you're talking about. I don't read every post in a thread because it gets tedious. If you said something I missed, forgiven.
    Vent here. But make sure you let people know you're venting. I vented in here when my first order of seeds got confiscated. Had I not, I would have made a complete ass of myself and had a bad day.
    Whatever you need to do to get your head right, do it, and keep on truckin'.

    Would you give me a heads-up that you got this? Your message keeps popping up as not being read.
    Hi Gingerbeard...thx for the comments on my post. I appreciate what you're saying about the molasses. I've heard it both ways. My first grow the molasses was given during the late stages of flower. I couldn't tell if it made a difference or not. The recommendation to use molasses throughout the grow was made by the local grow shop that I like. May I ask a couple of questions? How do I make that cool status list that you and others have in their posts? I can't seem to figure it out. I'm curious about your split tent for the perpetual harvest. I've thought about the perpetual harvest but was thinking of just adding another tent. But that turned out to be too expensive. I'm curious about your set up.

    Howdy rl!
    I do what I do because of GWE and other gardening and houseplant experience, and because I don't know any better. GWE is an unbiased resource of information. Get a second opinion if the first is from a sales person.
    I'm growing bagseed. When someone tells me to do something in the last week of flowering, I have no idea when that is because I can veg as long as I want and have no idea how long flowering is. Time frames are often based on autos. This time I'm going to wait until I see the first traces of milky trichs before M'ing instead of guessing how much longer flowering will be. Opting, instead, for more nute time. We'll see what happens.
    The perpetual harvest tent is great if you have zero other space to grow and need to control two environments. I've opened mine after realizing a few things. Vegging doesn't need 100% dark so I can keep young veggies growing with or without a tent. I can start a new crop when switching to flower by putting the new seedlings inside the tent when the light is on for 12 hours, and on my balcony for another sold 6 hours of sun. Darkness can happen anywhere there is a little circulation. My next grow will be auto. If I keep my training going I'll be able to fill my space with a single plant. If I were using both chambers, I would limit the size plant I can grow. With the knowledge I have now, I wouldn't get another perpetual harvest.
    I think you're talking about clicking on your user name in the upper right of your screen. Click on the 'Account'. Look for 'Conversation Detail Options' category on the left. Click on 'Edit Post and Signature'. Make yourself as cool as you want.
    This is the link to the company and tent I am using. I recommend neither because I am not a recommender. However, I am happy with both. The price is out of line. I got it for $100 after putting together a little package and talking with a sales rep.

    I know there lacking something would like to figure it out !

    Otherwise great looking plants.
    Post this in the conversation area. Make sure you add info about time, soil, auto or photoperiod. I'm not the nutrient expert. The folks in the forum could write books.
    voila mas bébé alors il ont 41 jour de végétation et 6 semaine de floraison et un 600w led mais poile sont brun rousse mais trichome son blanc laiteux ,, d'après vous sont tu prêt vue que les poile sont comme sa pour avoir le thc le plus fort MERCI
    it is some kind of micro organism [I think]that is inside the plant,I made an experiment. I put sample in white paper under microscope, I spray it with sulphur. first orange dots on sample then I waited and watched I see red dots appear on top of trichomes next I seen grey=black tiny dots appear inside red ndot until its all grey-black then they bunch in leafs, I never see them move. They just appear like measles. That what I think ,as soon as they sense danger of ndying they try to mature so they can leave their spores, Do not know.Going to try an get help from MSU BIO MEDICAL CENTER,Hope I can find solution because they are all over ,in outdoor Garden, outdoor Greenhouse,Indoor Grow room,If I can not solve my problem I am done Its been almost 3 years and spent a Bundle with no success.

    Yeah. If they're that prevalent, you sound screwed. I'm real curious how this turns out.
    I mentioned I don't know my pesticides and such. If it's something inside the plant, or something that's feeding on the plant, a systemic treatment might do the trick. However, a big however, is you'd be using it on an ingestible plant. Not a floral bouquet. It would have to be something you can 101% flush.
    What about the other side of the coin? Are there plants that don't seem susceptible to the problem? Perennial vs. annual? Flowering vs. nonflowering? Neighbors? It might be fun to ask your neighbors if they're having the same problem with their pot plants.
    I don't want to scream at you to not use sulfur. I've had a number of bad grams of concentrate that have tasted and smelled like sulfur.
