Ok Are you a Sativa, an Indica or both ??

Hi SirSmksAlot I ordered my Ace beans either from Seedsman or from Coffee Shop Seeds, I've ordered some Thai Chi from Ace under Coffee Shop Seeds on Dec 14. , now in transit to Canada. I expected to be here on Monday or on Tuesday. Their shipment so far is faster than Seedsman.

Great question !! One of my favorite discussions is strains. I read an article about this https://www.wired.com/story/whats-in-a-cannabis-strain-name/ that throws the sativa vs indica in a questionable area. Different smokes for different folks. Time of harvest is certainly important as well as drying and curing. But the seed is where it starts. I've had some seeds that produce less than desirable results for me but others swear by them . Aurora Indica comes immediately to mind. I grew 5 of those things . Huge buds glistening with tric's. No High there for me. The one that works for each grower is what you go with. Another discussion I would like to see is dispensary smokes as compared to home grown. We've only had them around me for about a year. Before that I always wondered how good what I was growing really would stack up. Shoot the worst I ever grew beat 5 out of the 6 strains I tried. My bud quality as for rolling a joint was way out of their class. Oh well , rambling again. Good smoke does that. Good growing to all !!
 
Eliot Pryor Ya know i'm wondering if in our case we aren't getting a tad bit spoiled ( me & hubby ) buy the extremely good dispensary smoke I've been purchasing. Trying to supplement for sub par homegrown outdoor. Timing harvest is of upmost importance with the strains and type of evening relaxation we like. Interesting about the Aurora Indica I would of thought that's a good one for us but for you blaa blaa.

I don't know never really paid much attention until I started growing indoor 3yrs now, and we got rec. legal but these new strains with stated THC@23% with 1%CBD are doing wonderful but boy it's costly. We don't buy but a couple grams last us with the bong 3-4 nights. Just got this one called MK Ultra outstanding. The smell, taste and burn is like a magic carpet ride. So many new growers try to archive this type of goal with limited knowledge and supplies become frustrated thinking their grow should be like dispensary flower?

I don't set my expectations real high but just do the best with my grow supplies, good genetics from good breeders. I've grown very good weed for our family just need to relearn and sharpen my indoor skills. And maybe I just need to slow down maybe?
 
No doubt I've spoiled myself. (*lovin' it) The one strain out of the 6 that I tried that was up to my best was Gorilla Glue. But I smoke all day every day. I can't afford that much pot. And even with the GG the buds just weren't as nice. They weren't nice and sticky. I started growing 6 years ago out of necessity (my long time source went to jail). I had to be kind of stealthy about it till last January then the law changed. I managed with some pretty limited equipment and the knowledge gain from Sirius and Nebula to grow enough. Now that I see what mine is like compared to dispensary stuff, yep snobbish. Have a great grow !! Spread the peace and love !!
 
Technically I'm retired. I have zero time now. However I have my hobby grows at home and then we have the cbd farm, the tree farm, and the catfish farm. Other than that I have nothing to do. Lol retirement is busier than having a job.
 
Oh yes from a statement above about being a weed snob. That is me and my family. I have more strains than most if not all dispensaries. I like to jump around the strains. My wife likes basically 2; Original Glue and Baked alaska. She likes either of those mixed 50/50 with six shooter. Most of the family likes Nitro Lemon Haze the most. Me I dont care as long as it tastes great and is strong. Girl scout cookies is one that everyone likes but for different reasons. In our house we use it when we have stomach issues. It will completely eliminate most stomach ailments. However everyone else loves it for the high.

My point is that yes we are snobs. I told the wife I was gonna quit and she laughed at me and said "yeah right and smoke someone else's shit weed?" And she just laughed at me.
 
I totally agree that time of harvest is much more important than Sat. vs Ind. (or NLD [Narrow Leaf Drug] vs. BLD [Broad Leaf Drug]). THC is, after all, THC. So yeah, I've read that in various places. Cannabis harvested in the milky a little amber amber window is what I like: after it's been cured, it's always both cerebral and relaxing. And cerebral.
 
My personal experience based on my personal experience (so this isn't my opinion): my high, no matter what the genotype is, is always good if I'm in a good place, and can be a little racey, no matter what I'm vaping, if I'm stressed or anxious. I have concluded that while my highs share key elements in common, no two highs are ever exactly alike.

I like to harvest when I see lots of milky mushroom heads bending over, a very few amber and still some clear because I don't want too much amber. I don't want my THC converted to CBN--not at all. I've never experienced couch lock and I don't think I'd care for it.
 
@ alltatup here's my version of "couch lock " I'm a whimpy smoker so is hubby. My weed needs more amber more CBN that's what we've been talking to medical folks who know about our smoking. I've never ever not been able to function being oriented to time and place is of much importance. I just want the feeling of warmth, soothing feeling like a few glasses of wine gives. What i'm searching for is CBN.
 
SoOrbudgal "To each her own." ;-} I'm usually feeling that way by the time I go to bed. I've just gone through the intense cerebral or mentally active part of the high prior to getting to the sedated part.

When I take my tincture early in the morning, I have a nice feeling of sedation 4 hours later for my work day, which suits me perfect. But I love the super-intense, cerebral, euphoric, insight-giving high I get for 2 hours before that.
 
OlderNOTwiser Yes you reading it right I have been blessed to be able to enjoy retirement pretty much as I dreamed it. I did it the old fashion way. *I earned it*. I play golf, I grow pot and manage my account. What can I say ? Jesus loves me !!
 
JDU it's all great i'm so pleased to have met Dingus and sometime perhaps you. For shits sake nothing to be sorry about. I'm playing with germinating autos right now pissing me off failed 2 sweet tooth. Got 1 Gran daddy purp auto going, 1 Durban poison auto (waiting on sec.) and 1 berry ryder auto. There under t-5 with dome heads moved setup to living room for warmth closer to woodstove. My lone clone photo is sitting low and going slow because I want the tent for auto for a month then add photo. Geeze I hope this works LOL
