STRAIN HUNTERS SWAZILAND - DAY 1 Less than six months have passed since our last expedition in Jamaica, and here we are ready to go again. It's the most exciting feeling, the one that doesn't let me sleep at night for the anticipation. This time we head to Africa; Swaziland, to be precise. The mission: to retrieve the original genetics of the legendary Swazi landrace. The crew arrived in Amsterdam on the previous days from different locations, and we spent the whole day on wednesday checking the equipment and testing the cameras and the hard disks. I didn't sleep much last night, and woke up early this morning to finish packing my last things. It is very challenging to organize the equipment and personal effects in an efficient and effective way for such an expedition. We try to keep our personal items to a minimum in order to spare weight for the heavy equipment (hard disks, radios, batteries, GoPro cameras and accessories, tripods, microphones and sound equipment). My backpack weighs 14 kilograms when I am done packing. Arjan picks me up with a Taxi early morning, and we head to the airport. There we meet the rest of the crew, excluding Simon who is already waiting for us in Swaziland. Cristian, Alessio e Andrea form the film-crew for this expedition. Cristian worked with us during the past 3 expeditions, Alessio and Andrea are new to Strain Hunters but they work with Cristian for many years and the three of them form a very tight crew. All of them have several experiences shooting documentaries in rough parts of Africa. We will see how they will fit in our mission. MrX is the official photographer, he was already with us during the last two expeditions and proved to be a great photographer and a really funny character to travel with. I am glad he's with us again for this trip. After checking in our luggage we smoke some weed outside the terminal building and we crack some jokes and take some nice pictures. We try to get our spirits ready for the long flight to Johannesburg, because it's not a short one. We clear passport control, then we enjoy some breakfast and do some shopping before heading to the gate for the security check. Surprisingly we have to pass through a full body-scan before boarding, a procedure normally reserved for flights to the USA but now randomly applied to all intercontinental flights departing from Schiphol airport. Our flight is almost 11 hours long, and all during the daytime. Long story... I managed to reserve seats with very good legroom, so at least we are not too uncomfortable. Take off is sharp on time, and soon the seatbelt sign is turned off and the entertainment system is turned on. I spend the entire flight watching movies, reading, and planning for the mission ahead. Airplane food sucks, but I am hungry and I eat everything they serve me. After several drinks the time starts flowing faster. After 8 hours in the plane I start to seriously need a smoke. I manage to get a little bit of "semi-sleep", also known as "airplane-coma". Finally we land in Johannesburg, at around 22:30 local time. We collect our luggage and we clear customs, then we head outside to look for the shuttle bus that will take us to our hotel. A bunch of local hasslers and luggage-porters surrounds us, and I immediately realize this is a great chance to score some quick bud. After all we really need it, because we have nothing to smoke with us and we have to spend a night here in Johannesburg before heading off to Swaziland tomorrow morning. I quickly ask some of the hasslers and they run off on a mission to score some weed for me. It takes about 5 minutes to reach the shuttle bus and to load all our staff, then we start driving. At this point I am alost thinking it's not going to happen, when I see the two hasslers running towards the shuttle bus, screaming and waving their arms. I beg the driver to stop, I jump out and run towards the guys. They scored some weed for me! It's incredible, it all happened in a few minutes, right outside the airport! I pay them 200 Rands (around 20 Euros) for around 5 grams of decent outdoor from the Transkei, then I jump back in the shuttle bus and get a funny look from the driver. The crew is happy, now we have something to smoke to relax from the long fight before going to sleep! The drive to the Hotel is quick. We check in, drop our bags in the rooms and go down to the bar for a few beers. We smoke some weed just outside the lobby, on the terrace of a closed pub. The quality of the bud is mediocre, but right now it's really a saver. I enjoy the harsh taste, and I get really high; I feel the length of day now; I need some good sleep. Tomorrow we head to Swaziland. The hunt is on...

Here we go guys.... finally, and out of the blue, a new LIVE THREAD begins. Arjan, Olaf and myself arrived in Canada with a KLM flight 12 hours ago. We met on the early hours of wednesday at Schiphol Airport, got some breakfast and boarded the plane. The almost 8 hours daytime flight went smooth, with no delays. But by the time we landed I was craving a smoke. Real bad. Lucky for us clearing customs was fast and easy, and in no time we were in a taxi direction downtown Toronto. The sky deep blue, full sun, and a mild temperature around 24 degrees made our adjusting to the jetlag a lot easier. After checking in and leaving our stuff in our rooms we went for a triple-A Alberta beef burger, really tasty, and then we grabbed a cab to go to the recently opened but already famous Vape On The Lake, the first official Vapor-Lounge in Canada. Our friend Marco Renda, organizer of the Treating Yourself Expo, welcomed us in the Vapor-Lounge with plenty of drinks and of course plenty of local high-grade strains brought by licensed medical growers. Canada is known for the quality of its bud, but here we are talking prime-time weed. Top of the game. In no-time we are stoned, and the airplane ride seems really far away already. Things get hazy from there on. It's now past 11pm local time, and past 5am tomorrow morning for my biological-stoned clock, so I figure I'll upload some pics and pass out. I am loving Canada. Every minute of it, and every toke. Tomorrow it's time to build the stand for the expo. PS: sorry for the poor quality of the pics. I am NOT MrX. It's clear, I should stick to the plants. LOL PPSS: all pics made with iPhone

Os podemos garantizar que esta genética no os dejará indiferentes . ____________________________________________________ Con esta presentación queda poco que decir y mucho por querer descubrir. No os parece? Pero la primera pregunta o duda que me viene a la cabeza es su tamaño, ¿cuanto es capaz de crecer una kush? Sabemos que florece en 8 o 9 semanas en interior. ¿Pero se cumpliran estos rangos en exterior?. Todas estas dudas y las que vosotros tengais se iran despejando segun vallan creciendo ¿verdad?. Bueno veamos a las protagonistas de este viaje al futuro, variedad de la "vieja escuela", pero de vieja no tiene nada salieron las tres niñas. Se colocaron las tres semillas en agua durante 12 h en agua embotellada, seguidamente se colocaron en pañuelos de papel, y cuando germinaron las pase a unos yogures que hicieron el papel de los jiffis. Las trasplante a los pocos dias pues tenia miedo de que sufrieran algun calenton al estar directas al sol. Se germinaron el dia 23 asi que hoy tienen 13 dias pero estas fotos son de antes de ayer. Bueno pues de momento esto es todo chicos sean felices juntos veremos como crecen estas money saludos.

hey everybody, i am a medical user who is very interested in and enjoy's rescearching the specific uses a strains for certain illness's. It is sort of a hobby of mine, so when i came across this medical forum that has written out a list of medical strains in alphabetical order and for each strain they list out specific medical uses for each particular strain. its really an impressive body of work i coulden't imagen gathering all that infobut i came across two different lists with lloads of strains added so i figured would open a thread on the strain hunters website to spark the conversation of specific medical use's for strains and kick it off by posting both list's for everyone to go through and enjoy.

Compact, easy to grow, and potent, it is exactly what you�d expect out of a landrace Afghani. Lots of resin production and a hashy, earthy taste and its couchlock indica high are great, though they don�t often measure up to today�s fancy hybrids. Recommended for: chronic pain, muscle spasms, anti-nausea, anti-emetic, and appetite stimulant AK-47 Lineage: Colombian, Mexican, Thai and Afghani Breeder: Serious Seeds Flowering period: 53 - 63 days Yield: Good to great Strong smell, compact buds, great yield, and easy to grow. Compact stature. Look for the cherry smelling pheno. High is cerebral but not overpowering. Recommended for: chronic pain Apollo 11 Lineage: C'99 x Genius (Jack Herer) / [shivaskunk x JH f2] x shivaskunk Breeder: Brothers Grimm Flowering period: 45-55 days Yield: Average to good This is a great sativa for those who don�t have the time for a plant like Haze. It tends to be very branchy, but it�s very forgiving to grow, and has a remarkably short flowering period for such a sativa plant. It has an up, creative high and a lemony taste. Recommended for: epilepsy, multiple sclerosis, and other seizure-related illnesses Big Bud Lineage: Skunk #1 x Afghani Breeder: Sensi Seeds Flowering period: 50-65 days Yield: Outrageous If you�re looking to get the highest yield per plant possible, Big Bud is where it�s at. Unfortunately, its other characteristics don�t match its yield. It has a skunky but not powerful smell, and the high is typically indica. Between its low potency and the low ceiling of the high, it doesn�t make the best medical marijuana. Mr. Nice�s Critical Mass is a rebreed of Big Bud that fixes some of the potency issues. Big Bud is also very susceptible to bud rot and other kinds of mold. Recommended for: anti-nausea, anti-emetic, and appetite stimulant Blueberry Lineage: Juicy Fruit(highland) Thai x Afghani male x Chocolate Thai x Highland Oaxacan Gold Breeder: DJ Short Flowering period: 45-55 days Yield: Average Blueberry is very unique marijuana. It tends to turn from partially purple to full on blue, and if grown properly smells and tastes like blueberry muffins. The high is euphoric, uplifting, and comfortable. Blueberry can be difficult to grow, and is very sensitive to nutrients. Be sure not to overfeed. Recommended for: chronic pain, muscle spasms, anti-nausea, anti-emetic, and appetite stimulant Bubblegum Lineage: Big Skunk with some Northern Lights Breeder: Serious Seeds Flowering period: 56-63 days Yield: Good to great Bubblegum tastes and smells exactly like what the name suggests. It has a powerful, euphoric, narcotic, indica stone and is very easy to grow. It is of medium to tall stature, and generally not very branchy. Recommended for: muscle spasms, anti-nausea, anti-emetic, and appetite stimulant California Orange Lineage: Thai x [Afghani x Acapulco Gold] Breeder: Nirvana Seeds Flowering Period: 56-70 days Yield: Good California orange, when grown well, has a sweet orange taste, but the potency is definitely lacking. The high is fairly typically indica, though not overwhelmingly so. It�s a pretty forgiving plant to grow, but it fails to excel in any one aspect. Chronic Lineage: NL x Afghan x NL / NL x Big Bud x Afghan Breeder: Serious Seeds Flowering Period: 53-63 days Yield: Good to great Chronic was bred to be a good commercial variety. It isn�t a branchy plant, and it doesn�t respond well to topping, but it grows giant buds, which makes it well suited for SOG. Its mild, sweet smell and typical indica stone are nothing special but pleasant nonetheless. Recommended for: muscle spasms, anti-nausea, anti-emetic, and appetite stimulant Cinderella 99 Lineage: ShivaSkunk x [sensi Jack Herer x Jack Herer] Breeder: Brothers Grimm, several knockoffs Flowering period: 60 days Yield: Good If you want a sativa high but don�t have the room or the time to do it, C99 is for you. The high is all sativa�heady and racy. But it flowers very quickly, and though it�s stretchy, it�s nothing like growing a full sativa. The taste and smell are a combination of citrus and floral, very refreshing. Recommended for: epilepsy, multiple sclerosis, and other seizure-related illnesses F-13 Lineage: Juicy Fruit(highland) Thai x Afghani male x Chocolate Thai x Highland Oaxacan Gold Breeder: DJ Short Flowering period: 49-63 days Yield: Average to good The most outstanding characteristic of F-13 is its amazing, powerful, and clear high. The second is that the plant turns purple, sometimes fully so but usually only partially. It grows like a stretchy sativa, but it�s nowhere near as bad as a landrace and its short flower time keep its stature in check. The smell and taste are a combination of earthy and vanilla-y. Recommended for: epilepsy, multiple sclerosis, and other seizure-related illnesses Haze Lineage: Thai x Columbian x Mexican x Vietnamese Breeder: The Flying Dutchman Flowering Period: 12-16 weeks Yield: Low to Average Haze is an interesting plant in that it actually makes a better breeder than it does a grower. It passes on its best characteristics, but alone, it's hard to grow and not worth the trouble. It has a sweet, sandalwood, spicy taste, and a very up, sativa, energetic high. It takes forever to flower, needs a ton of headroom, and is very sensitive to nutrients, so it�s not recommended for beginners. Recommended for: Crohn�s Disease, epilepsy, multiple sclerosis, and other seizure-related illnesses Hindu Kush Lineage: Landrace Breeder: Sensi Seeds Flowering Period: 45-50 days Yield: Average to Good Hindu Kush is a short, single-cola dominant indica that produces fat, sweet buds with a heavy stone. It is remarkably easy to grow, and has a very short flowering period. Pefect for SOG. Recommended for: chronic pain, muscle spasms, anti-nausea, anti-emetic, and appetite stimulant HOG Lineage: Kush x Afghani Breeder: T.H. Seeds Flowering Period: 56-63 days Yield: Good Strong, skunky smell and a knockout indica high combined with being easy to grow and a good yielder make this both a grower�s and a smoker�s favorite. Its short stature and big, fat, greasy colas make it perfectly suited to a SOG. Recommended for: chronic pain, muscle spasms, anti-nausea, anti-emetic, and appetite stimulant Jack Herer Lineage: Skunk #1 x Northern Lights #5 x Haze Breeder: Sensi Seeds Flowering Period: 50-70 days Yield: Average to Great Jack Herer�s sativa phenotypes are average-yielding and Haze-dominant, while the indica dominant phenos look more like NL#5 and yield excellently. Both phenos have an up, energetic, sativa high, and are completely covered in trichomes. Jack Herer tends to be a stretchy plant, so be sure you have enough headroom, especially if you have the sativa phenotype. Recommended for (sativa phenos): epilepsy, multiple sclerosis, and other seizure-related illnesses Recommended for (indica phenos): chronic pain, anti-nausea, anti-emetic, and appetite stimulant Kali Mist Lineage: Haze x Skunk hybrid / Cambodian sativa x Silver Haze Breeder: Serious Seeds Flowering Period: 70-90 days Yield: Average to good Kali Mist is a nearly pure sativa with a potent, up, energetic high and a hazy, pine taste. It stretches dramatically, so make sure you have room to grow it. It�s very mold resistant. Great headstash but not for beginners. Recommended for: Crohn�s Disease, epilepsy, multiple sclerosis, and other seizure-related illnesses Lavender Lineage: Super Skunk x Big Skunk Korean x Afghani-Hawaiian Breeder: SOMA Seeds Flowering Period: 56-63 days Yield: Average to good Lavender turns a very pretty purple color, and has a sweet, herbal, spicy candy taste. It has a classic, heavy indica stone�not daytime medicine. It�s fairly easy to grow, and can be a very good yielder if given the right care. Recommended for: chronic pain, anti-nausea, anti-emetic, and appetite stimulant Legends Ultimate Indica Lineage: Ortega x Sweet Tooth #2 Breeder: Legends Seed Co. Flowering Period: 49-63 days Yield: Great LUI is a great indoor plant�potent, good yielding, and easy to grow. It tastes like candy, and certain specimens can even change colors. Tight, compact buds and a heavy indica stone, as the name suggests. Short, compact stature. Recommended for: chronic pain, muscle spasms, anti-nausea, anti-emetic, and appetite stimulant Mazar Lineage: Afghani x Skunk #1 Breeder: Dutch Passion Flowering Period: 56-63 days Yield: Good Mazar has a nicely balanced indica/sativa high and is an exceptionally easy, forgiving plant to grow. It is compact in stature and there is little phenotypic variation. Recommended for: anti-nausea, anti-emetic, and appetite stimulant Maple Leaf Indica Lineage: Afghani Breeder: Sensi Seeds Flowering Period: 45-50 days Yield: Good Maple Leaf Indica is a knockout indica from Sensi�s vintage Afghanica stock. Abundant resin production makes it great for hash making. The taste is syrupy sweet with some citrus. Expect little stretch and dense nuggets. Recommended for: chronic pain, muscle spasms, anti-nausea, anti-emetic, and appetite stimulant Mr. Nice Lineage: G-13 x Hash Plant Breeder: Sensi Seeds Flowering Period: 60 days Yield: Good Mr. Nice is a knock-down, drag-out indica to rival any. It has a hashy, earthy taste, and its resin production is out of this world�great for making hash or other extracts. Its high is extremely munchie-inducing and put-you-to-bed potent, and it�s fairly forgiving to grow. Recommended for: chronic pain, muscle spasms, anti-nausea, anti-emetic, and appetite stimulant Neville's Haze Lineage: Thai x Colombian with a 1/4 NL#5 Breeder: Greenhouse Seed Co, Mr. Nice Flowering Period: 12-14 weeks Yield: Good Neville�s Haze is an almost pure haze with some Northern Lights bred into it to tame it somewhat for indoor growing. However, it is still not a plant for the novice or impatient. It will wrap itself around the lights very quickly, and it takes forever to flower. But if you�re looking for the classic haze high and taste, look no further. Recommended for: Crohn�s Disease, epilepsy, multiple sclerosis, and other seizure-related illnesses New York City Diesel Lineage: Mexican Sativa x Afghani Breeder: SOMA Seeds Flowering Period: 70 days Yield: Good NYC Diesel is best known for its citrus-grapefruit-lemon-fuel stench. It�s not quite as potent as Sour Diesel, but it packs quite a punch. The high is powerful and sometimes overwhelming, with both sativa and indica effects. Be sure you have enough odor control when growing this. Recommended for: anti-nausea, anti-emetic, and appetite stimulant Northern Lights #5 Lineage: Afghani x Skunk #1 x Haze Breeder: Varied Flowering Period: 45-55 days Yield: Great One of the first successful hybrids of sativa and indica, Northern Lights changed the world of indoor growing. It combined a short flower period, a very high yield, good potency, a short, bushy profile, and ease of growing�a perfect indoor plant. The high is a classic indica couchlock, and the taste is hashy and earthy. It�s more of a grower�s plant than a smoker�s plant, but it�s always a safe bet. Recommended for: chronic pain, muscle spasms, anti-nausea, anti-emetic, and appetite stimulant Romulan Lineage: California X [White Rhino X White Rhino] Breeder: Federation Seed Co Flowering Period: 55-60 days Yield: Average Romulan is a very strong mostly indica that tastes and smells like rotten fruit and black pepper. It is a striking dark green mottled with dark purple. Short plants and dense buds make this a good choice for a SOG setup. Recommended for: chronic pain, anti-nausea, anti-emetic, and appetite stimulant Shiva Skunk Lineage: NL #5 x Skunk #1 [male] Breeder: Sensi Seeds Flowering Period: 45-55 days Yield: Good Shiva Skunk has a musky, skunky smell and a heavy smoke with mixed sativa and indica effects. It grows with indica dominant traits, and is remarkably hardy. Silver Haze Lineage: NL x Haze Breeder: Sensi Seeds Flowering Period: 65-75 days Yield: Average to good Though the haze is brought under control somewhat by the NL influence, this is still very much a sativa dominant plant. It stretches dramatically, the buds are airy and elongated, and the high is pure psychedelic sativa. Outrageous resin production makes this great for making kief or hash. Recommended for: epilepsy, multiple sclerosis, and other seizure-related illnesses Skunk #1 Lineage: 25% afghani, 25% Acapulco Gold, 50% Colombian Gold Breeder: Sensi Seeds Flowering Period: 45-50 days Yield: Good Skunk #1 is the classic from back in the �90s. Remember the stuff that made you think you�d just hit a skunk when you opened the bag? This is it. Easy to grow with consistently good yields, but if you smoke too much the high can get uncomfortably racy. Recommended for: appetite stimulant Sour Diesel Lineage: [(SensiNL X MassSuperSkunk) X Dawg/Chem] X DNL Breeder: Reservoir Seeds Flowering Period: 75 days Yield: Good Sour Diesel has a stench like no other: citrus sour with ammonia, diesel fuel and skunk. It punches you in the face with an extremely powerful high and doesn�t let go. Sour Diesel is very sensitive to light leaks, but if treated well it will give you some of the best smoke you�ve ever tasted. Expect significant stretch. Recommended for: chronic pain, anti-nausea, anti-emetic, and appetite stimulant Strawberry Cough Lineage: Strawberry Fields x Haze Breeder: Dutch Passion Flowering Period: 63 days Yield: Average A sweet, strawberry smell and taste and a comfortable, dreamy, euphoric high make this a nice smoke, but it is a relatively low yielder and produces leafy, airy buds that are hard to trim. Don�t expect every example to smell like strawberries, either�it may take a little imagination with some. Recommended for: Recommended for: anti-nausea, anti-emetic, and appetite stimulant Super Silver Haze Lineage: [NL x Nevilles Haze] x [skunk x Nevilles Haze] Breeder: Mr. Nice Flowering Period: 56-70 days Yield: Average to great Super Silver Haze is one of the most revered strains in cannabis lore. It won the 1997, 1998 and 1999 Cannabis Cups in a row, and for good reason�its soaring, euphoric high and floral, sweet taste and smell are truly unique. The more indica phenotypes have the potential to be monster yielders, but the sativa phenotypes are generally more potent. Recommended for (sativa phenos): epilepsy, multiple sclerosis, and other seizure-related illnesses Recommended for (indica phenos): chronic pain, anti-nausea, anti-emetic, and appetite stimulant Super Skunk Lineage: Afghani x Skunk #1 Breeder: Sensi Seeds Flowering Period: 45-50 days Yield: Good Super Skunk is a great first plant to grow. It�s hearty and hard to kill, it yields well, and its smell harkens back to the skunky, pungent stench that pot smelled like before all of the berry and diesel strains took over. Though its sativa parentage means it stretches more than your average indica, it makes a great indoor plant that will reward hard work with giant colas. Sweet Tooth #3 Lineage: Sweetpink Grapefruit x Blueberry x Grapefruit f1 Breeder: Spice of Life Flowering Period: 56 days Yield: Great Sweet Tooth is a favorite of commercial growers in Canada. Hearty, easy to grow and a great yielder combine with a heavy, sedative stone and an almost cloyingly sweet taste to make this a prizewinner several times over. Recommended for: chronic pain, anti-nausea, anti-emetic, and appetite stimulant Trainwreck Lineage: Afghani x [Lowland Thai x Mexican/columbian] Breeder: Clone only, Greenhouse Seed Co has a ripoff Flowering Period: 60-70 days Yield: Average Trainwreck is a mostly sativa plant from Humboldt County, California that is famous for its pepper/lemon/catpiss smell and its powerful, up high. Ultimate Afghan Kush Lineage: (Pure Afghani x Unknown Kush, F4) x Legends Ultimate Indica Breeder: Private Flowering Period: 55-60 days, some variation Yield: Good Expect big, fat colas with a pungent pine-lemon-sweet aroma. Hearty plants with good mold resistance make this a good choice for beginners. Some stretch, but minimal. The high is on the psychedelic side of indica, but less so in the phenotypes that lean toward LUI. Recommended for: chronic pain, muscle spasms, anti-nausea, anti-emetic, and appetite stimulant White Rhino Lineage: White widow x Afghani Breeder: Greenhouse, Nirvana Flowering Period: 56-63 days Yield: Good A spicy strong smell, killer resin production, and a knockout high combine to make this super-potent indica a famous one. The high can actually be too intense for some, so beware. White Rhino�s particularly forgiving to grow, though it can be susceptible to mold. Recommended for: chronic pain, anti-nausea, anti-emetic, and appetite stimulant White Russian Lineage: AK-47 x White Widow Breeder: Serious Seeds Flowering Period: 53-63 days Yield: Good This is an F1 cross that results in stable, medium height plants with dense, resin-covered tops. The potency is in line with what you would expect from a cross between two legends such as these. White Widow Lineage: Brazilian x Indian Breeder: Sensi Seeds Flowering Period: 50-65 days Yield: Average White Widow can be too potent of a smoke for some, but those who can handle the intensity of the high get to enjoy one of the most legendary plants of the 1990s. A combination of high resin production and a pale shade of green makes the buds appear �white�, hence the name. Recommended for: epilepsy, multiple sclerosis, and other seizure-related illnesses. please feel free to exsamine the list as i did not write this lists just sharing something interesting i found online. also feel free to add strains and your medical uses for them... credits: the first list came from treatyourself forums and was posted by a guy named smoking moose http://www.treatingy...ead.php?t=37970

Trucos de Franco sobre control de plagas y enfermedades en interior. La mayor causa de fallo en operaciones de cultivos de interior, pequeños o grandes, probablemente sean las plagas. Trabajar en un ambiente limpio y aplicar estrictas y lógicas reglas son las únicas formas de prevenir que pestes y enfermedades dañen tu cosecha. Pero a veces inclusive con muchas precauciones se hace necesario luchar con el problema. Prevención y cura son dos expresiones de la misma filosofía: monitorear cuidadosamente tu cultivo para prevenir problemas, o hacer frente a los existentes lo suficientemente rápido y de forma efectiva. La prevención comienza con la esterilización del cuarto de cultivo antes de poner ninguna planta dentro. La mejor forma de esterilizar un cuarto de cultivo es usar peróxido de hidrógeno (H2O2-35%) diluido 1/10 en agua. Con esta mezcla es posible pulverizar todo el cuarto con las lámparas apagadas, incluido todo el equipamiento dentro (contenedores, mesas, baldes, controladores, ventiladores, redes, varas de bambú…). Cuando pulverices, usa la necesaria protección (máscara, gafas, traje con protección para la cabeza) y luego de pulverizar, espera hasta que este todo perfectamente seco antes de prender cualquier aparato eléctrico. Las luces y la ventilación deben ser prendidas por 12 horas antes de poner las plantas dentro. El cuarto esterilizado es sólo un buen comienzo. Luego de eso viene el plan de prevención. Trata de utilizar sustratos esterilizados (o pasteurizados) ya que el compost puramente orgánico puede contener muchos bichos y es más indicado para cultivar en exterior, pero una pesadilla para trabajar en interior. La ventilación debería tomar aire de una toma con filtro (la mayoría de los ácaros y otros bichos entran a los cuartos a través de la entrada de la ventilación). Cuando traemos plantas adentro, lo mejor es asegurarse de que las plantas que son introducidas en el cuarto no portan ninguna enfermedad ya (si comenzamos con esquejes) o que están libres de patógenos (si comenzamos con semillas). Desafortunadamente esto es raramente posible ya que la fuente de la cual provienen las plantas o semillas no provee de ninguna certificación. Así que es común el caso de que las plantas en si mismo traigan algún problema ya. Como un paso preventivo, todas las plantas jóvenes del cuarto deben ser tratadas con 3 sesiones de Vertimec (o equivalente) spray, (producido por Bayer o Syngenta en Europa) a la mitad de la dosificación normal (1ml.por cada 5 lts. de agua). Vertimec puede ser pulverizado cada 5 días así que en 10 días es posible tratar las plantas 3 veces y asegurarnos de que todo huevo de araña roja u otros bichos son eliminados en el lugar. Es eficaz con la mayoría de todos los bichos y ataca los huevos también. Los componentes activos en Vermitec se rompen con la exposición a la luz y desaparecen totalmente luego de 15-20 días del último tratamiento. Por esta razón, Vermitec solo debería ser usado durante el crecimiento vegetativo y evitado en plantas que están floreciendo, especialmente después de que los cogollos forman resina. Los peligros más comunes para las plantas son los bichos y los hongos. Una vez que las plantas han terminado su crecimiento vegetativo y se tornan en floración, son más atractivas para los bichos. Además el sustrato se está poniendo viejo y menos aire llega a las raíces. En este estadio, monitorear las plantas frecuentemente, es la única forma de prevenir problemas. Los cultivadores experimentados, rotan sus plantas dentro del cuarto de cultivo periódicamente, para tener la posibilidad de controlar cada planta individualmente y evitar el dejar plantas abandonadas y sin controlar en un rincón. Si las plantas son cultivadas en sustratos fijos (slabs, cubos de lana de roca, aquafarms o similares),son imposibles de mover, pero esto no debería ser una excusa para no controlar regularmente. Cuando miramos por problemas, lo mejor es empezar por el medio y el sistema radicular. Las raíces deben estar blancas y peludas, si se tornan amarillas y amarronadas estén posiblemente pudriéndose o tengan una infección fúngica. Esto muy posiblemente se deba a un exceso de riego o por falta de aire en el sistema radicular. El sustrato nunca debería oler a podrido (al menos que se use un fertilizante orgánico especial) y debe estar libre de bichos. Las moscas del mantillo son comunes sobre la superficie del sustrato incluso en ambientes saludables, pero si están presentes en grandes números, puede ser que la superficie del sustrato esté formando una costra (esto debe ser evitado, de otra forma la transpiración será principalmente afectada. Luego de controlar el sistema radicular es bueno echar una mirada a la parte baja del tallo, asegurándonos de que esté libre de pequeñas ramas y hojas que estén tocando el suelo. Cuando esto pasa, las hojas tienden a quebrarse y pudrirse, creando un camino de entrada para hongos y enfermedades. Cuando controlemos por la presencia de bichos y pestes, es bueno mirar el envés de las hojas más viejas de la planta y en los tallos. Mira por los bichos más comunes: hormiga, mosca blanca, pulgones, cochinillas, ácaros. Y por las enfermedades mas comunes: Algae, Oidio ,Botrytis y enfermedad de hojas moteadas. Para el Algae lo mejor que hay es privarlos de la luz (cubrir la superficie del sustrato), mientras que el Oidio puede ser tratado orgánicamente con vinagre o aceite de canela. Para la Botrytis es necesario usar un funguicida, o producto especifico, pero una vez que aparece es prácticamente imposible deshacerse de el, así que realmente es un asunto de prevención (controlar la humedad del cuarto y los riegos es el primer paso). Cada una de estas enfermedades o plagas tienen un modo apropiado de ser tratadas, pero el factor más importantes es detectar el problema a tiempo, tomar acción inmediata, monitorear el éxito del proceso, y evaluar las consecuencias para no tener ninguna mala sorpresa. Por toda la Internet hoy en día es posible encontrar exacta información sobre plagas y enfermedades, así que solo se trata de aplicar el sentido común y vigilar. Y estos principios van bien con cualquier aspecto de cultivar cannabis. Franco. Green House Seed Co.

Hola Compañeros ¿que tal estáis? Espero todo valla bien. Vengo a mostraros unas fotos de hoy para que juntos veamos como van avanzando. Pero dejemos de chacharas y veamos a las money unos dias despues del trasplante. Esta la he nombrado A1 es de las tres la que mas sativa parece, hojas serradas, estrechas comparadas con sus hermanas. Esta es la A2 un poco mas indica que A1 pero también con algún rasgo sativo. Y por ultimo la A3 es la mas indica de las tres las hojas apenas serradas, con una circuferencia clara en las hojas. Esto que os comento es lo que a mi me parece veremos si más adelante he acertado. Bueno sean felices pronto veremos más y ya en exterior saludos.

Bueno aqui les dejo las ultimas fotitos que he sacado: El cogollo de la copa de la Ese T. Bilbo Y la planta Y la Cheese (la pegada a la pared) y la Great White Shark

Gracias Mr-x sigo tu consejo de no rallarme gracias por que tu respuesta hizo que me calmara por que temia que no fuese lo suficientemente bueno pero veo que os gusta y si os sirbe asi el proximo año sera mejor. Vengo a traeros fotos del avance, se realizo la sujetción de los tallos con clavos de tienda de campaña con cuerdas de nailon blancas, se colocaron tres tensores , uno en la parte baja de las plantas para ir forzando el tallo otro en la mitad del tallo para mejorar la curvatura y otro casi en la punta para direcionar de este modo conseguimos una tansion uniforme y no hay peligro de romper el tallo o la punta de la planta. Las plantas ya casi no crecen en altura al doblar el tallo lo que se consigue es un mayor crecimiento de ramas. Aqui ya es tiempo de verano con temperaturas de 30 grados y por las noches no menores de 15 grados. Pero veamos a las nenas white lemon. White lemon Marron una explosion de ramas que la hacen bella. White lemon fresa se tuvo que direcionar al sur por que sus vecinas son grandes y no hay otra solucion. white lemon melocoton white lemon cereza esta semana se terminara su doblaje. y por ultimo la bonita white lemon pera. sigo con dos riegos con podwer feeding indica de 10 litros y 10gramos de fertilizante. bueno por el momento siguen bien les deseo buen verano y mucha cosecha.

Trucos de Franco sobre floración en interior. La floración es una de las fases más satisfactorias de cualquier cultivo porque el progreso hacia la cosecha puede ser visto, tocado, olido. Las plantas están ahora desarrollando racimos florales y hay varios factores que pueden garantizar éxito en calidad y cantidad. Dentro y fuera, el objetivo es que as plantas se sientan bien sobre las condiciones, el ambiente y el cultivador. Cuando trabajamos dentro es importante notar que cada uno de los factores dependen del cultivador, no debería haber nada librado al azar. Las condiciones de clima ideal para florecer con las lámparas prendidas son a una temperaturas de 25 a 30 grados, y una humedad relativa entre 40% y 55%. Cuando las lámparas se apagan es normal que la temperatura baje a 20-22 grados, mientras que la humedad relativa trepe alrededor del 60%. Si la diferencia de temperatura es mayor a 8-10 grados entre el día y la noche, existe el riesgo de que el metabolismo de las plantas se ralentice. La humedad relativa debe estar por debajo del 70% para evitar la aparición de hongos en el cultivo. Una buena forma de hacer frente a las temperaturas diurnas es prender las lámparas de forma opuesta a la luz del día. De esta forma la máxima del cuarto se mantendrá más baja, pero la desventaja de este sistema es que la diferencia entre las temperaturas del día y la noche serán reducidas a un mínimo, y esto a veces puede traer problemas por que las plantas realmente se benefician de la diferencia de 8-10 grados entre la temperatura del día y la de la noche. Sin embargo, es mejor sacrificar la diferencia de temperatura día-noche, que terminar con temperaturas sobre los 35 grados durante el día. El aire acondicionado es una opción muy cara y muy poco amigable con el medio ambiente, pero a veces es la única para cultivadores en países cálidos. Los beneficios son aire fresco y efecto secante al mismo tiempo, ideal durante la floración. Vale notar que a las plantas no les gusta el aire acondicionado directamente soplando sobre ellas, es mucho mejor direccionar el flujo del aire hacia el techo, de donde se precipitará, dejando al aire más calido que trepe. De esta forma la difusión de aire fresco y seco, es uniforme en el cuarto y no directo a las plantas. Una vez que el clima está perfectamente bajo control, vale la pena dedicar algo de energía en optimizar la toma de fertilizante. Durante la floración las plantas usan mayormente P, K y micronutrientes para la producción de cogollos y resina. La toma de N, es todavía importante durante las primeras semanas de la floración, pero más tarde debe decrecer, o los cogollos se llenaran de hojas y la relación cáliz-hoja disminuirá dramáticamente, creando problemas también para manicurar. Solo con sativas de floración extremadamente larga, la toma de N puede ser mantenida un poco más, para evitar el amarillamiento prematuro de las hojas. Para permitir a las plantas lentamente tomar menos N y más P, K y micros, el pH de la solución nutriente debe estar sobre 6.0 luego del comienzo de la floración, idealmente subiendo lentamente entre 6.2 y 6.6 en tierra y subiendo lentamente entre 5.9 y 6.3 en hidroponía, dependiendo de la variedad y el estadio de la floración. La regla del sentido común aquí es, que cuanto más larga floración tenga una variedad, más alto el pH debe ser al final del proceso de floración; con sativas de 12 semanas, el pH trepará a 6.9 o 7.0 al final de la floración. Los micronutrientes más importantes (Mg, Ca, Zn, Fe) son también asimilados mejor si el pH esta por encima de 6.0 y estos son realmente importantes para la formación de terpenos, cannabinoides y resina. La mejor forma de asegurarse que las plantas toman los nutrientes es si las plantas están hambrientas y sedientas. Lo mejor es crear un ciclo seco-húmedo del sustrato, donde el seco permita suficiente acceso de aire a las raíces y el húmedo suficiente solución de riego para ser absorbida. La cosa menos les gusta a las plantas de cannabis en floración es un sustrato constantemente húmedo. Aparte del ciclo normal de regado, es importante también limpiar el sustrato regularmente para eliminar el exceso de sales. Esto puede ser realizado con una solución ligera con pH de 5.5 y EC de 1.0, para que las sales puedan pegarse al bajo contenido de minerales en la solución y disolverse. El limpiado debería estar integrado en el ciclo de regado y luego de la limpieza debe permitírsele al sustrato secarse apropiadamente antes de fertilizar nuevamente. Una vez que la fertilización ha sido optimizada, es bueno encargarse de los otros factores que afectan un cultivo exitoso. Entre ellos, apuntalar las flores y optimizar la pre-cosecha y la cosecha. Tras 4 semanas de floración las plantas usualmente han desarrollado suficientes cogollos para empezar a ponerse pesadas, así que es recomendable apuntalar las ramas con algún sistema (varas de bambú, bandas elásticas, yoyos, o cualquier sistema que prevenga a las ramas de colapsar bajo el peso de los racimos florales). Dependiendo de la variedad, el soporte puede ser un problema de importancia o marginal. Las grandes sativas usualmente necesitan de un mayor soporte. La pre-cosecha, consiste en remover la mayoría de las grandes hojas de la planta en los últimos días del ciclo de floración, antes de cortarlas para manicurarlas y secarlas. La pre-cosecha ayuda a reducir la cantidad de material verde (agua y clorofila) en la cosecha. Una vez que las hojas grandes (las que no tienen resina) han sido removidas, las plantas reducen la fotosíntesis y producen menos almidón. Esto da pie a hierba más dulce y que arde mejor y hace todo el proceso de cosechado más fácil y rápido. En conclusión, está en el cultivador el identificar los puntos más débiles del cultivo y mejorar desde ahí. La curiosidad y el deseo de mejorar son los factores clave para un “dedo verde”. Durante la floración, mucho puede ser realizado para asegurar una gran cosecha; y todo vale la pena. Franco. Green House Seed Co.

Hola tokade muchas gracias por pasar de visita compañero se feliz y espero veamos buenas plantas. gracias. vengo con unas pocas fotos a ver que me deciis si os gusta lo que veis. Money maker A1 recordemos la mas sativa de las tres segun mi opinion. Money Maker A2 recordemos que dije que esta seria la mas indica de las tres. Yo las plantas las veo fuertes y resistentes a bajas temperaturas siempre y cuando no les de el rocio directo aguantan temperaturas de 5y 6 grados por el dia las temperaturas son templadas cerca de los 20 grados incluso superandolos. como prepare la tierra de momento no he tenido la necesidad de regar con fertilizantes creo estan para todo el crecimiento arregladitas, si les falta ya les dare de momento se veen cargaditas. saludos compañeros vean con sus buenos ojos y opinen que esto es un foro Y por ultimo veamos a Money Maker A3 la que pienso sera un poco mas indica que A1. rezo que todo valla bien para que disfrutemos de unas fantasticas fotos.

muchas gracias fran! me alegro que te gste y espero que las puedas probar en la cata! saludos y gracias por pasarte thank you very much! I'm glad you like my work and you? Thanks for spending so often! regards

Re: decarboxylated weed to smoke? Reviving this thread because I'm experimenting with decarbing before smoking these two specific strains. They were not cured at all and the high seemed to be missing something, like it was strong in some ways and non-existent in others. The overall feeling was being high but having to stop and notice it. This is much different than being completely bakedy. I tried the oven first. Indica bud in an oven bag. 105c or so for 45 mins. Changed it like crazy. Now it is much stronger and also hits me behind the eyes, which is just the head element this bud was missing. Turned it into sleepy weed. The indica/sativa hybrid bud I put in the dehydrator at 130f for a few hours. It is much stronger now too. With a more fuzzy head high. Not at all sleepy. I like this bud twice as much now. I suspect that I will end up liking the dehydrator better than the oven for this. So far so good. I just have to come down so I can try the dehydrated indica. I will also experiment with re-hydrating to proper levels with orange peel or something. I look forward to going back to properly cured bud, but that will have to wait until my next harvest and a long cure. copied and pasted from - http://forum.grassci...ed-smoke-2.html Science of smoking THC - Decaboxylation What is it about about marijuana that makes you high? Most experienced users know that it is in fact THC (Δ9-THC or Tetrahydrocannabinol), but did you know that Cannabis in it’s basic plant form contains very little THC? If you were to take a nice sized nug and swallow it whole (or chew it if you please), it really wouldn’t do much. This is due to the fact that rather than containing tetrahydrocannabinol, fresh Cannabis contains tetrahydrocannabinolic acid. Unfortunately, ingesting that isn’t going to do much. When marijuana is heated, the carboxyl group is converted into water (H2O) and carbon dioxide (CO2). This occurs at 222.8°F (106°C). At this point the Cannabis can be eaten plain and will be fully absorbed by the body. When you smoke marijuana you are essentially rapidly decarboxylating the bud (and then just burning and inhaling all of the carbon in it as well). On a side note, many people advocate decarbing your herb before using it in baked goods. Apparently there’s more THC absorption, but I’m skeptical as to how much it really makes a difference. copied and pasted from - http://420tainment.c...cience-smoking/ Review: Decarboxylation of Cannabis. permalink I've been researching this for a while now as ive been getting damp, crap weed and was looking some way to make it slightly more potent by drying it out - this is where i stumbled upon Decarboxylation. I've read on a few forums about people doing this to activate inactive THC so i thought id give it a go. (Info i used was from here: Robert A. Nelson: Hemp Husbandry ~ Cannabinoid Chemistry (Ch 6)) 1st try: Microwave. Simply droped the bud into a coffee cup and put it in the microwave at 600w for 15 seconds, took it out at 9 seconds because the stem caught fire. Picked the burnt bit off and ground it up using my Pollen-Blitz grinder, First thing i noticed was it ground to almost dust instead of the usual tiny balls of bud. The smoke; Harsher than usual, Really cottonmouthy, More of a instant headstone as i smoked than the Regular un-microwaved cannabis. Good high, Lasting slightly longer - Surprising result. 2nd try: Oven (At 180degrees) Again, dropped the bud onto a piece of tin foil into the oven for 2 minutes, took it out with no burns. The smoke: Not as harsh as the microwaved stuff, but took 12 minutes (10 mins to heat the oven) instead of 9 seconds, so personal preferance - microwave. Not as swift a come up but better then standard weed, good mellow long lasting stone. All in all - Positive results, I'm smoking a regular joint now with untouched weed and i can certainly notice the taste difference and also lesser a stoned feeling from it. My thoughts If youe weed is properly cured and has very little water in it then i wouldn't decarboxylize it. You have spent a long time getting to that lovely stage, bring out the unique flavours and tastes.By carboxylizing cured weed you will mostlikely lose the terpines by heating through evaporation.In the past i have micro waved weed that i have bout due to the fact it had not been thoroughly dried.It certain was more effective at getting me high, so i would say yes it does have an effect.When smoking weed be it in a pipe or a joint the process of burning and the hot smoke/vapor being pulled through the joint will have a caboxylating effect.When making edibles decarboxylation is much more effective way of using your weed.The tree articles/posts above as far as i can see are to the most part anecdotal (the personal expiriences of the users) so I am not able to verify the validity of there statements.I guess you could try a comparrison, break some weed into two eaqual weight pieces, carboxylat one (then re-weigh to see how much water has been lost) and then test each sample. obviously not at the same time. you should be straight (unstoned) each time you test. I hope this helps Dust Peace Lams

hola! espero llegar a tiempo, me tuve que ir de la ciudad para tener alguna inspiración jeje. Otra de Cloe...

...el que no aprenda es porque no quiere! de nuevo gracias Fran and Franco jajajaja

i would also like to add tokeage that i am with you 100% weed can be super cheap to produce when you count gram per $ invested its insane, and the black market has set the price of weed in a way that is just rediculous. when i was in high school, me and my friends all got sick of getting .7's for 10$ so we decided to make a change and we all pooled our money together and grabbed a half pound to start and sold it at 1 gram for 10$ or 2 for 15$. within a month we had the business of pretty much the whole school. then kids from other areas used to travel to our school just to grab. next thing you know everyone is selling 2 for 15$ and grams for 10$ it was pretty sweet we effected the price of weed in our hole neighourhood. pissed off alot of dealers we got set up a couple of times and took a few beat downs but in the end it was worth it. but i totally believe weed should be cheaper to the point where when i grow weed i pretty much give away more then i smoke to neighbour's and friends sick people i have people offer to buy weed from me and i just turn them down but throw them a couple joints. but to me i grow more for a hobby i like to look at the plant learn things about the strains i like to smoke and i dont really invest very much money in my grows the 4 auto bombs i just did costed me only the price of soil and a few containers to grow because i had the lights and got the seeds and nutrients for free and the energy bill is included in my rent. so i keep enough to lighten my wallet until i can have another harvest but other then that i like to share with the community , friends and sick people who are hard up like i am. thats the number 1 reason i want it legalized i dont think criminals should be allowed to exploit this plant and the people who love it any longer i think its discusting how many people profit in the way they do from something that anyone can grow with half a green thumb, an empty closet and a few bucks. seed companies i can understand because breeding is a talent and should be compensated as such. but criinal organizations that control the markets for marijuana just simply because its illegal. i think we as pot smokers need to do something about it like imagen if everyone who smoked weed grew 1 plant continually just one and then harvest and then start another one and then harvest and so on kept half and gave the other half away to other smokers who then did the same the price of weed would go right down. and in canada te penalty for growing one plant is next to a slap on the wrist. this senario isent unrealistic if you really think about it. i wanna actually try to figure out a way to promote small time hobby growing. like work with a small set and and just try to make like a formula for how to get the most bang for your $ out of a small set up, something that could be easyly replicated and make manual for how to do it like a book or video that has everything step by step day by day with all the equipment and techniques written out, i think it would be really cool there isent enough grow videos for small cost effective set ups. im a pot head have been for like 10+ years i've watched all the popular high times grow videos but for some reason i had the idea up until a few months ago that with my budget the only way i could grow was outdoors thinking that indoors costs an arm an a leg.

i get what your saying but i dont think you quite understand the pricing its not like they are street dealers, it is a business with overhead , employee's to pay they make all there own edibles and employe a Julliard trained chef , there is alot of money involved. they also don't employ or grow any weed. they have a network of growers they buy from so its not up to the store as to what the grower charges. and they still try to get a large amount of affordable strains. as you can see below. all the hashish is import so the price of the hash is fixed its always 15$ a gram and they always have 5 different types. then the legal fee's it is a chain and i dont think there isent one province that isent fighting an on going court case with huge legal fees that has been going on for 10 years. they have 2 store frounts in toronto alone in the city i might add that dont pay for them selfs. and probably about 40 employee's in toronto alone that dont work for free. so your not think about that side of the coin, its not like this organisation is ran through a basement. its also a non profit organization that is gone over with a fine tooth comb because the government is looking for any way to shut them down so im sure if they could afford to sell the weed even cheaper they would. i know the owner of the toronto location and he is in no way a rich man infact the owner spends alot of his time as a bud tender at the downtown store because they can't afford to hire enough tenders. this is just a quick list of some of the strains that are on the menu today that are under 10$ a gram Headband x Sage $9 Grapefruit $8 Skunk #1 $7 (subsidized) Cantaloupe $9 Juicy Fruit $8 Jean Guy $8 Mountain Tops $6 Blueberry $9 M-39 $6 Value Kush $8 Lemon Kush $9 Burmese kush$9 but i do understand where you are coming from tho there are dispensary's in the state's that supply all there own weed and still sell all of there strains at like 12$-15$ a gram and that i feel is wrong. in canada because of the way these dispensaries have to run, they can't just go and get a business lience from the city so inorder to open shop they have to be registered as a Non profit organization. they aren't allowed to grow there own medicine and technically speaking they aren't even legally allowed to sell weed. but the courts havent figured out what to do with these places yet so they allow them to stay in operation in ontario other provinces havent been as lucky . but like they have to run the organization to the letter which means keeping a detailed report of income, what they pay there employee's the overhead at the two location eg scales heat water baggies the food that goes into the edibles the owner is allowed to pay himself a modest salary which he doesent even he barely makes the same pay as a bus driver. and then there is the morgage on the two locations in toronto both locations are right in the city so we are talking million dollar locations. and even still i'd say in toronto its the cheapest thing around maybe there is strains that cost alittle more but they have so many quality cheap strains that it doesent really matter, and i for one dont mind spending a few extra dollars for something special when i have so many cheaper options. also the quality of the 6 dollar weed still beats the quality of any dealer on my street and in toronto the average gram is 10$ so thats almost half price. here is a picture of the 6$ M39

Dear Friends, Today is Flower Stage Day 4, She is smell good

hola a todos otra actualizacion del cultivo cruzado el cultivo acuaponico esta con un sodio de 150w y sin la planta de testeo que se saco x exeso de crecimiento y el cultivo organico va de puta madre cultivo acuaponico bueno x ser la primera ves nada mal jajaja esto habla de que no es tan dificil hay que animarse e ir aprendiendo autobomb crecio un poco mas apesar de las condiciones desfaborables y empeso a florecer recien tiene los primeros pistillos pero lo que de asi sea una sola calada la voy a fumar igual jeje la planta aunque pequeña se ve bien aunque si la comparamos con el cultivo organico que tiene apenas 5 dias mas no hay comparacion posible ahora todos los nutrientes de la pecera estan solo para la autobomb asi que puede ser que mejore bastante bueno vamos a algunas fotos y en esta se ven los rpimeros pistillos empeso la floracion cultivo organico que mas puedo decir que fantastica hermosa y cada ves mas grande ahora tiene 60 cm por lo que tuve que sacar las lamparas bc debido a su altura por el momento tiene una lampara de mh de 400w que por diseño del indoor esta a 70 cm de la planta tengo que arreglar un balasto y en esta semana se cambia por un sodio de 250w que se ubica a poco cm de la planta unops 30 cm (mientras no siga creciendo jaja se rega con melaza una ves por semana y con agua ph6,5 la planata ramifico mucho y muy bien dandole un aspecto muy parejo y agradable (similar a un pino) los cogollos empiesan a formarse en todas las ramas incrementando la produccion que seguro superara los 30gr bueno vamos a algunas fotos en los 3 portalamparas estaban las 3bc105w como dije 60cm asi estan las flores este es el mh de 400w que tiene por ahora otra y ese portalamparas que se ve es donde ira el sodio de 250w bueno tienen fotos para un album jejeje saludos a todos y pronto mas noticias buenos humos

The slow process cure is done under a 16-18c if I recall. The refrigerator is way lower then that + the humidity. Not good! If you have a Wine refrigerator, those are PERFECT! The perfect temps for the wine are the same for the buds! If they are drying to fast for you, after hang put them inside paper bags (half full or something close to that) and close the bags, with a few hours a day with them open and shaking a bit the bags so the buds change positions. After a couple more days move the buds to the glass jars, slightly pressing them a bit after jared and for best result keep the jars 2 thirds full and close them, opening several times a day and let them sit open 30 mins during the first week or so then one hour a day, always checking if they become some how moistier then leave it open more time. The thing is that if you find them too dry then you just have to press them in the jars to release some humidity and enclose them next so the moist spreads to all buds, after some time if already nice uniform humidity then give the jars more time opened. Grab them and squeeze the buds very lightly to see the humidity level. I have the same problem as you at this time of the year and it works! After some time is easy to see it. Im nicely stoned so I had to edit this some times to make it somehow clear. Take care and happy smoking!

Don't forget it is canadian dollars not Euros 1 In Dam you pay 12 to 15 for that quality afghani hash easily ! So if you do the math these prices are quite reasonable. As a reminder back in the late 1970ies this hash in commercial NPL pressed plates - A mixture of afghan 60% 30 % Paki & 10 % Nepal pollen costed DM 7.50 per gram - 600 per 100 gram plate and 5 DM if you bought 1 pound or art least a quarter pound every other week. Okay DM is only 50 cent but remember how much a pack of shag or cigarettes or a bread costed 35 years ago and that was when the borders where wide open and afghanistan was a Hippie mekka with many travellers - same as Kashmir.. So don't get the wrong idea besides 1 gram of that hash will give you 2 or 3 nice buzzes - more than 1 gram of weed definitely - smoking weed is A LOT more costly than smoking hash, unless you smoke big Chillums with 2 grams 5 times per day, like we used to do back then..lol

Mi gusta Sativas muy excellente. buenos macros - fumare sensimillia enamor ! Gracias !

Do not use strong tasting oils such as seseme because you will have an overpowering flavour, and you dont want that, you want to taste the flavour of the weed, otherwise its pointless. Its not just about "hey lets make weed food and get stoned" taste the weed guys its amazing!! Cooking with certain flavoursome and perfumed strains such as cheese will be of better flavour benefit, most stoners just cook with weed to get high but i recommended you flavour food with it!!

Ye man! The rule is INFUSION is sooo nice i tend to cook with Hemp oil all the time as my chefs secret ingredient. I would recommend using Hemp oil with cannabis, and hemp seeds. Making roast potatoes with canna hemp oil is heaven!! Im a professional chef and i would definatly recommend using canna butter and oil, hmmm maybe not garlic bread because the garlic just kills it, but oil and butter can be used for anything, if your careful you can fry steak with the oil but dont heat too much! Its always better to rub the oil into meat before you cook, and never ever preheat oil in the pan because the THC will just die! You can use butter for finishing vegetables without heating, or when boiling veg you can make a panache with the water by putting the butter in the water and the butter coats the veg when lifted out with a slotted spoon. Just remember the not above 50°C direct heat rule, and let your imagination run away!!

Pues perdonarme, por que se me habia pasado aqui en estre hilo la actualización. ¡hay señor que cabeza.! .. Bueno pues a ello Our British colleagues there and then you'll know if update but I miss here in Spanish for Spanish speakers. Money maker esta creciendo muy bien esta semana pasada tubieron buenas temperaturas alcanzando los 32grados como max, pero os traigo un grafico de temperatura media. Las lluvias fueron escasas esta semana solo 0,3mm por m2. Y los vientos fueron bastante molestos Pero aun asi las plantas crecieron y crecieron y estan creciendooo. . Bueno se le aplicaron dos riegos de 10litros con fertilizante feedingpodwer indica, a las dos money maker, A1 y A2. Para A1 por probar el resultado de alimentarla estando en una zona que no esta fertilizada de ninguna manera, Y A2 para que me haga una buena produccion. unos excelentes resultados con solo dos riegos, el proximo riego sera con agua solo. Pero vamos a ver a las protagonistas. Money maker A1 Con 74 cm crecio 14 centimetros esta semana pasada. El compañero tokage me pregunto si podia medir las hojas en el hilo ingles y asi lo hice y os muestro tambien a vosotros el tamaño de las hojas por si os interesa. Money maker A2. El viento como digo fue bastante fuerte aqui en el cultivo y money makes A2 se le rompio una rama, que cubri con tierra para que ponga raices. y las hojas son un poco mas pequeñas, por que las voy quitando, pero el día que cogí una para medir, así era. Bueno las imagenes son del lunes, hoy las regué de nuevo pero solo con agua, otros 10litros por planta. la proxima semana mas sean felices.

Hey HC, just looking at your plants at Day 20 in comparison to my Autobombs at Day 21, although mine are taller and bigger yours are much more compact and are sprouting at internodes better than mine, my tallest plant is about 17cms and smallest around 12cms. Interesting to see the difference as we're both using soil, 18/6 light cycle, temps and humidity almost the same so must be the lights, will you grow full cycle under same lights or change to bigger more powerful? Although might be something to do with the CO2 I have in my tent, who knows. I took a little lesson from your posts by putting some clay pebbles round the top soil to stop it drying out as quickly. I love your journal it has to be the prettiest set of pictures ever, keep up the good work my friend. Here's a couple of pics for you. Best regards. Toaor

Hola compañeros que tal estan? deseo todo les valla bien. Actualizo el test asi vemos como estan las nenas A1 y A2, pero antes quisiera hacer un resumen de crecimiento ya que estamos a punto de alcanzar el ecuador de la temporada. Money Maker esta creciendo muy bien con unos cuidados minimos (recordemos que el test es clima mediterraneo con un suelo mas calizo rondando un ph neutro 6,5 a 7. Las palntas tienen un porte muy fuerte siendo facil su mantenimiento y crecimiento. No he visto ataques aun de saltamontes ni carencias de ningun tipo por el momento y no se mide ni regula el ph y la ec. Las imagenes creo que hablan por si solas. A1 56 dias de vida, 75 cm de altura. Ha respondido bien al alimento organico con base de algas pero sera la ultima vez en la proxima con el fertilizante llegado de holanda. A2 esta muy fuerte crece rapido y con minimas atenciones previo preparo del terreno conseguimos un buen porte . A2 75 dias de vida 94cm de altura. tiene una ramificacion adecuada para exterior ni mucho ni poco. no teniendo la necesidad de hacer podas para controlar su tamaño, como me ha ocurrido con otras variedades cultivadas, a ver como termina el crecimiento y la flora y creo que teneis una cepa muy estable y fuerte poder hibrido. Bueno sean felices la proxima semana mas y mejor acepto consejos y preguntas chaou.

Hola,fantastico hilo,vas a sacar bonitas plantas!!!!!! Respecto a esas manchitas,yo no soy ningñun experto pero ami tb me salieron recientemente unas muy parecidas y creo que fue por unos dias que tuvimos aqui de vientos muy fuertes.Incluso me hicieron algun agujero en alguna hoja.

Hola, buenisimas noches a todos fumandome un flait os traigo la actualizacion de el crecimiento de Money maker. recordais que A1 estaba un poco que daba pena pero eso forma ya parte del pasado. con dos riegos y comida con un 10% de nitrato le dio el empujoncito que necesitaba, ha crecido algo mas y ha empezado a estirar las ramas. seguire cuidandola y ya usare los fertilizantes en floracion que es cuando interesa, mientras tanto los espero pacientemente. Bueno su tamaño no es importante aun le falta unos 120 0 130 dias para cosechar. pero veamosla ya direis pues eso vamos a verla. Ahora vamos a ver a la Money maker A2 es como si prima white lemon en tamaño y forma si no las conociese diria que son la misma variedad. Con ella veo grandes hojas una ramificacion correcta de forma de copa ancha de los laterales y una punta principal que espera para despegar dentro de unos dias dara un bien crecimiento se le nota. EL tamaño es de unos 105cm aproxmadamente y solo tiene casi 70 dias, sin apenas requerimientos de comida las lluvias y los riegos la mantienen con un buen crecimiento bueno de momento esto es todo sean felices y seguimos trabajando.

Hola chicos vengo a traeros fotos fresquisimas de hoy mismo y casi pasaditas por agua pero estaba intentando hacer una fumigacion para pulgon y trips, pero no la he realizado por que venia lluvia asi que solo hice fotos y nada mas. La verdad es que de mometo estan muy bien A1 esta pidiendo algo de comida pero aguantara hasta que llegue el fertilizante green house y le cambiara la vida. Money Maker A1 lugar sin preparacion de sustrato con unos 70 litros de tierra revuelta nada mas. Money maker A2 lugar preparado sustrato con turba, coco, humus y fertilizante organico. requiem Money maker A3 descansa en paz esperando terminen estos dias de lluvia y volveremos con mas fotos saludos y sean felices. no olviden mineralizarse y vitaminarse.

muchas gracias querido! espero que las puedas probar en la cata!! saludos querido muchas gracias conpi!

una pasada como siempre tus aportes!! precioso bosquecito como dice Fede! que ganas de verlas florecer

hehe yep always bin there you stoner hahaha well i didn't know what the difference would be, i went with the blocks they served my purpose and they where cheap £8 each, next time i will get some gel to test that stuff out i can imagine it would work just as well all depends on your needs really. Peace

Dont forget to stretch before attempting all that lol , we not as young as we used to be

Great work there. Here you have given perfect details about the growing of the plant and the pictures show the exact story about the plants grown.Keep such a good work going. It is very much helping.

Nice jump they make each time you give us un update! Fast girls Jimmy!

Bueno no me da muchas posibilidades la foto, si fuera un raw todavía podríamos jugar un poco, aun así la he contrastado un poco a ver que te parece y clona do algún elemento, espero que te guste

Amazing test good job

You were right Levente Thanks Here is Levente's Entry

Hola compañeros vengo a traeros unas fotos de las money maker A1 y A2. A1 esta en la zona no fertilizada y ya necesitaba alimento pues no queria que estuviera muy amarilla, En los proximos dias le dare mas alimento y la pondre como las otras de verdes y hermosas A2 esta en la zona preparada durante el invierno para mas informacion pasen por el hilo de white lemon en el inicio. Esta creciendo muy bien muy vigorosa apenas con atenciones y las lluvias hacen que yo tenga tiempo para otras cosas. tenia visita A2 de un Grillo que no sabia que lo era todo gracias a nuesttro amigo jose. gh Presenta algunas marcas en unas hojas que me parecen quemaduras del sol pero no es un problema. Bueno de momento las lluvias mantienen las plantas casi sin riegos uno a la semana. ademas de las lluvias. El sol y las temperaturas por el dia van entre los 18º y los 23ºc durante la noche las temperaturas son de entre 9 y 14ºC de momento se aprecia claramente la diferencia de crecimiento de A1 y A2 los mismos cuidados pero en distintos lugares. seguimos trabajando sean felices.

Loved it very cool, so in a certain way everytime someone cooks cannabis, in butter or anything that needs heats, decarboxylate his weed without really knowing it? ^^ So Could we say it is usefull to decarboxylate the weed before smoking it too? i know it "naturally" does when the heat and smoke passes through the joint, but having the weed already ready and active could perhaps make us win a little more high or longer perhaps? Very nice info once again thanks for sharing man
