  1. Long time no see! Hope all's been well brother! Looking forward to reconnecting with a new perspective from inside the industry here in California! Be blessed

  2. CAN NOT BELIEVE I REMEMBERED MY PASSWORD WHAT!!!! What's up world?! It's been a while, but we are now FULLY entrenched in the California cannabis industry! Took almost 5 years and a move across the US but we're here now! Can't wait to touch bases with you guys again, hope alls been well and that this message finds you guys in good spirits!

      I've been stripped of my Bud of the Month! I used to look on here every now and then to make sure I still had it haha! I was so proud!

       

  3. Aspirin In The Garden? In looking for new ways to make simple improvements in the garden, I’ve come across quite a bit information on using Aspirin in the garden to trick the plant into thinking it’s under pathogenic attacks, therefore forcing it to take action making itself more hardier. I haven’t come across many cannabis related reads regarding this info, but I’ve come across quite a few tomato related, and other plant reads citing that aspirin is a great tool in the garden. After some consideration, I’ve decided that I’ll be giving this a try just to see how my plants like it, and I will be sharing the results that follow. Below I’ve compiled a list of links that I’ve found useful pertaining to this matter. If anyone has had any first hand experience here, please do share as I had a hard time finding info on this matter pertaining to cannabis. Most of the stuff is pertaining to tomatoes but I figure the gap between the two isn’t that drastic, so I’ve shared it all. I’ll be giving it a run here in the next few days at the rate of 243mg(3 weak aspirin tablets) per gallon, and then using that solution as a foliar just one time! Around all of the various forums, you can find lots of great info indeed, but even more bad info I feel like, so I’d really only like a response if any of you guys have any experience with aspirin in water, rather than just what you may have heard or read somewhere else on the internet. It’s a shame that everything on the internet isn’t exactly fact lol. Would make things SOOO much easier! I’ve been looking for info regarding using Aspirin in the garden for a couple days tho now, and decided I’d go ahead and post about it, in hopes that someone has tested this already! Like I said though, If no one has, I still will and will share my results!

  4. When To Begin Flowering Indoor Cannabis Plants Rambo December 30, 2012 20 Timing is everything, and knowing when to start flowering marijuana plants can make or break an indoor harvest. This may seem remedial for many experienced growers, then again, I’ve seen plenty of “pro growers” with burnt plants growing into their lights. First, let me say that there is no easy answer regarding when to start flowering indoor plants. There are a lot of variables including the strain, your grow room setup and your growing style. That being said, there is a lot I can share on the topic that will better equip you to evaluate your situation and help you decide when to begin flowering. I should point out that the question of when to flower is usually measured by two metrics time and/or height. Let me explain. Weeks of Veg = Worthless Cannabis plants are often measured by their time in vegetative growth. For indoor growing this usually refers to the number of days or weeks that a plant has spent under 18 or 24 hours of light. You will often hear growers refer to plants as being in their 1st, 2nd or 3rd week of veg. This of course is a bit too vague to be of actual use, at least without further information. Clones A plant grown from a clone (cutting) is generally regarded as beginning its 1st week of vegetative growth when it has established roots and been transplanted into the growing medium. Most often this takes place when the clone is between 2 and 6 inches tall. While this seems pretty cut and dry, clones of the same strain can develop at drastically different speeds depending on root development. Differences in growth can become even more pronounced depending on the light, nutrients, co2, temperature and a myriad of other factors. After only a few weeks, two previously identical looking clones may look nothing alike. Seeds Plants grown from seeds make the measure of age in vegetative weeks a lot more confusing. Some growers refer to a plants 1st week of veg as when it emerges from the soil, some say it is when it produces its first set of true leaves. Still other growers will refer to week 1 as beginning when the seedling is transplanted, which in itself tells us very little. As if this did not confuse the matter, plants grown from seed often grow vertically much slower than clones, at least at first. Later plants from seed often outpace clones once their root systems have become established. It should be obvious why telling someone to flower plants after some arbitrary number of week of vegetative growth is worthless. Yet, I constantly hear experienced growers coaching others to change the light cycle and begin flowering after 2 or 3 weeks of veg. A three week old seed start may be as little as 4 inches tall, while a clone with 3 weeks of veg could stand over two feet tall. Plant Height The second common way to know when a cannabis plant is ready to begin the flowering cycle is the actual height of the plant. This measure has significantly more relevance because the height of a plant is objective and universally understood. Combined with other known quantities like the strain and the size of the grow room, height is a good indicator of when it’s time to flower. A plants height can be measured by stretching a measuring tape from the top of the growing medium to the highest point on the plant. It’s likely that there will be some variation from plant to plant, more on this later. While plant height is useful information, the key is knowing how much room you actually have to work with. Grow Rooms Size Restricts Maximum Plant Height The size and style of your grow room will ultimately determine the tallest possible plant height. From this you can deduce the tallest height to begin flowering. Most rooms in a residential home have 8 foot ceilings but many growers use attics, basements, outbuildings, grow tents and I’ve even seen grow rooms built into filing cabinets. What’s important is the distance from the top of the growing medium to the bottom of the lights reflective hood. Many grow rooms are set up so the height of the grow light is adjustable. In this case measure from the lights highest possible setting. Once you know the distance from the growing medium to the light you need to take into consideration your lighting setup. High Pressure Sodium (HPS) and Metal Halide (MH) grow lights get very hot and can damage the vegetation and even start fires if the plant grows to close to the bulb. It’s important to keep the plants some distance from the light so they don’t burn, but not so far from the light that the lumens are severely diminished. For further explanation on this, read Grow Light Intensity Principles. Light movers and ventilated ducting on your lights can reduce the heat and allow the plants to grow closer to the lights. As a general rule, plants should not be allowed to grow closer than about 12 inches from the bottom of the HID lights reflective hood. For those using fluorescent lighting which produces much less heat, the tops of the plants can grow as close as 4 inches from the bulbs. For more ideas on managing the heat from grow lights read Heat Management in Grow Rooms. Assuming that you are using one or more 600 or 1000 watt HPS or MH lights, take the distance from the growing medium to the bottom of the reflective hood and subtract 1 foot. This will give you the absolute maximum height of your tallest plant at the end of flowering. This does not necessarily mean you want your plants to reach this maximum, but it does give you a concrete parameter to work within. Strains The strains your are growing plays a huge part in how tall to grow your plants before switching to the 12/12 flowering light cycle. Find out as much about the genetics and typical growth characteristics of your strains as possible. Indica and sativa dominant strains often display very different growth patterns and behave differently after the light cycle is switched to flowering. Indica Strains Most pure indica strains slow their vertical growth very quickly once switched to a 12/12 light cycle. It’s not uncommon for an indica strain to add only 25% to 50% to its total height after switching to a 12 hour light cycle. Most of this additional growth will take place in the first week or two of flowering. If an indica plant is switched to flowering when it is 12 inches tall it can be expected to finish flowering at about 18 inches, give or take. That math is pretty consistent, so a 2 foot tall indica will likely finish flowering around 3 feet tall. Here is the equation for indica strains. The vegged plant height (V) multiplied by 1.5 equals the plant height at harvest (H) or 1.5V = H Sativa Strains Pure sativa strains are much more difficult to grow indoors and are becoming increasingly rare in general. I don’t recommend them for novice indoor growers for several reasons. What is important for this topic is that their growth after being switched to a 12/12 light cycle is unpredictable. Pure sativas often continue to produce significant vertical vegetative growth many weeks into the flowering cycle. Sativas often double in size while flowering, and in some cases, will finish at three times the height they were at when the light cycle was switched. A 12 inch plant switched to the 12/12 light cycle could end up as tall as 36 inches, sometimes even taller. This additional vertical growth can quickly become a problem in a normal grow room. I’ve seen growers flower sativas at 2 feet tall only to end up with 6 foot plants at harvest. Most grow rooms just can’t accommodate plants this tall, not to mention some other real problems with tall marijuana plants. Here is the equation for sativa strains. The vegged plant height (V) multiplied by 2.5 equals the plant height at harvest (H) or 2.5V = H. Hybrid Strains Hybrid cannabis strains are crossbreeds of various sativa and indica plants that have been bred selectively to promote specific characteristics. Some hybrids strains grow similar to sativas, other grow more like indicas. Most of the strains sold by seed and clone vendors are some form of hybrid. Find out as much about the strain as possible so you can guess how much vertical growth to expect after the flowering cycle beings. As a general rule, leave enough room for the plants to double in size. Once you are familiar with the strain you can let them grow a bit taller if there is room. Don’t forget, at a certain point, taller is not better. Here is the equation for hybrid strains. The vegged plant height (V) multiplied by 2 equals the plant height at harvest (H) or 2V = H. These equations are meant as a general aid and are by no means exact. Actual growth patterns may vary considerably. Growing Style Your growing style is a big factor in determining when to begin flowering. You may have heard terms like Sea of Green (SOG), Screen of Green (SCROG), Lollipopping, Super Cropping etc. I will go over these very briefly to point out how growing styles affect when to begin flowering. Sea of Green (SOG) Sea of Green is an indoor growing method where the plants are flowered very small and usually produce only one large bud. The plants are packed close together and occupy about half a square foot at full maturity. The plant count higher than other methods so clones are usually preferred. Indica dominant strains work best and should be flowered when they reach between 6-12 inches tall. Screen of Green (SCROG) The Screen of Green method utilizes a screen of wire or string mesh stretched horizontally above the plants to create an even plant canopy and help support the flowering tops. When the tops are bent down under the mesh the lateral branches grow up through the net and become tops. This method requires less plants per square foot than the SOG method but still requires clones because males can’t be easily removed. Plants must stay in vegetative growth for several week longer than with the SOG method and usually are allowed to continue vegging for one week after the tops are bent down with the netting. In most cases, the screen is placed between 1 and 2 feet above the growing medium. Lollipopping With the Lollipoping method the plants are usually switched to flowering around 1.5 feet for sativas and as much as 3 feet for indicas. The lower ⅓ to ½ of the plants branches are removed before the light cycle switch to direct the plants energy to the tops closest to the light source. This produces plants that resemble lollipops with long bare lower stems and multiple bushy tops. Super Cropping The Super Cropping method requires one of the longest veg periods but is designed to produce heavy yields with a minimal number of plants. While the plant is in in the 18/6 veg cycle the main stems are bent down to retard their vertical growth and promote the growth of lower branches. This decreases the overall height and results in bushy wide plants with tons of tops. If done properly vertical height does not become a problem and vegging can continue until the plants fill your horizontal space. Plant Height Variation When growing multiple plants you will often find a sizable variation in height of your plant. To maximize light exposure and therefore yield, it is ideal to flower plants of uniform height. Several methods can be used to help create an even canopy of tops before you switch to the flowering cycle. Topping By pinching off the tops of your taller plants you will not only create twice as many flowering tops, but you can buy some time for your shorter plants to catch up. This does stress the plants to some degree and I would suggest vegging for 1 week after topping instead of immediately switching to flowering. Training A less stressful approach is to train the tops of your taller plants down. This requires more skill and patience, but allows the lower branches to catch up. Several methods including screens (SCROG), plant tie, and stakes can help achieve the even canopy you are looking for. Rotating Plants Even with light movers the plants directly under the the lights will tend to grow the tallest and most robust. Rotating your plants each week from the outside edges of the grow area to better lit areas directly under the lights will help to create an even canopy. This only works if your growing method allows you to move the plants so it doesn’t won’t work with the SCROG method. Plant Health Half dead plants rarely make a sudden turnaround just because they are switched to the flowering light cycle. The veg cycle creates robust vegetation to support the plants while they flower. Without healthy foliage the plants ability to produce flowers is limited and its resources will be diverted to heal itself and fight off disease. It is much easier to treat nutrient and environmental deficiencies as well as pest problems while the plant is still in veg. A flowering plant that is stressed by poor health is also prone to reaching maturity early. This shortened flowering period gives the plant less time to produce the large trichome rich buds and will greatly affect the yield. Remember, veg usually takes only a few weeks while flowering can take from 7 to 14 weeks. Sometimes it makes sense to cut your losses and start a fresh round of plants rather than trying to flower sickly plants or coax them back to health. Cliffsnotes The number of weeks your plants have vegged is a bad indicator of when they are ready to flower. Use the height of the plant as a gauge for determining the height they will finish at. Know your strain and how much additional growth it will produce while flowering. Know your grow rooms limit for vertical plant height and plan accordingly. Choose a growing method that works for your vertical space limitations and don’t over veg for your method. Create an even canopy by pruning, training, and rotating your plants. Flower only plants that are healthy and happy. As usual, comments and quick questions are welcome below. If your questions are more involved and require a bit of back and forth, or are not related to this article, please ask them in the forum. _____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Hoi Hunters, I came across this post above at http://www.marijuana...annabis-plants/, and wanted to know if any of you guys have had any experience with gradually decreasing the lights from 18/6 to 12/12 over a period of time? Also, if any one you have given your plants the 36 hours of darkness before setting the photoperiod for flowering? So far I've only gone straight to 12/12. Cheers

I mist the soil whenever it looks like it’s dried out at the surface. No regular waterings the 1st week. Only misting! The soil is moistened thru prior to sewing my germinated seeds But nothing interesting really happens this week.. Just scrawny seedlings trying to get their bearings! 2nd week above soil 18/6.Thoroughly water the seedlings and allow adequate runoff to ensure that soil is wet all the way thru. This week things are getting a little more interesting as you notice that your plants have really grown since just a couple week ago when they broke soil! I’m sure that I can transplant them at this point, but I’ve chosen to go against an early transplant, to allow to core of the root mass to really develop in the solo. For drainage and added oxygenation i’ve devised a 3 solo cup scheme. The bottom solo is untouched and the middle solo is cut the same as the one that the seedling sits in. I prune the roots the root growing out of the draining spaces as well, so that they don’t start circling the cups. 3rd week above soil 20/4. @ 21 days above the soil roughly, I’ll be looking to transplant from 20oz solo cups to 1gal grow bags and should be ready to top/train the plants! Last run, my most vigourous growing plant ending up being the one I kept in the solo cups the longest @ around 30 days. So I’m hoping to build off of that with a transplant a little sooner than that. The plan initally was to finish that plant in the solo just to see what I could yield, but it started showing signs of being rootbound, so I transplanted it into a 1gal bag, and then a #3 smartpot shortly after that, and that plant ended up being the top producer and most vigorous grower of the batch. Once I get them in the grow bags, I’ll proceed with the thread! _____________________________________________________________ But as far as my growing style goes, I’m an organic small container farmer. Start in 20oz solos, veg in 1gal bags, flower in 3 gal smart posts under 600w HPS. 3-4month start to finish. I’ve recycled and reamended the soil from the last group of plants I’ve harvested, so we’ll see how that goes! I’ve also just started my own compost bin with red wiggler worms, so here within a few month I’ll be able to harvest some RICH vermicompost! And my soil mix is one that’s designed to go from start to finish with water only, but I use ACTs regularly as I’ve seen tremendous results from their use.

  6. Going dark for little while! Be back in a bit! Bless

  7. Hey brother, after you mix it up, you water it down with plain water(or pref. an ACT) then let it sit for a month 30 days and you'll be good! At first the soil will smell like a little bit of everything that you mixed into it, rather than smelling like truely earthy thriving soil, but after about 30 days, you soil will start to smell like fresh soil from deep out in the woods That's when you know it's ready! Bless Ps, there are so many different organic amendments you can use to get the same result! The problem is just making sure you don't add to much to your soil mix, bcuz you will toxify it. Generally, 3-5 cups of nutritonal amendments per cu ft of soil is what you want!
  8. Bout to have a little smoke down and watch a little football!

  9. It's gonna improve between every grow until it's right where it needs to be I'm close with this recipe tho! Very close! Bless
  10. Very nice brother! My mutant GHS Bubba Kush was exquisite smoke Very nice high, not too strong, but very buzzy Nice Kush aroma with earthy, sweet taste Here's that Chem D I said I get you a photo of! It's slowly changing aromas as it cures Getting more and more diesel by the day! Everything looking good man! Good luck with the finish Bless
  11. http://www.strainhunters.com/forums/topic/7060-summer-2013-100-organic-indoor-garden/ Peep the very first post bro to get an idea. You don't have to go ALL OUT like I did, but if you can, do it! Any questions from there just hmu! Bless
  12. Hey Pete, just saw you had a Q for me a WHILE BACK, that I never saw! But I'm not sure what you did brother I do know that chemical and organics DO NO MIX tho. Not even a little! So mixing the two should produce a VERY unstable result! But she's finishind beautifully brother, so whatever remedy you chose to go with, you nailed it! Bless my brother
  13. Whats up brother?! And all is good boss. I understand that life happens lol! But very nice you got the lasses rolling Everything doing fine?! And yeahh man, def. gotta keep shit on the DL for future reference. That's the reason I had to empty my house and halt this thread....Didn't feel 100% safe for a bit so I had to account for that.. Also, one of the best growers(in my opinion) on this site just got hemmed up man! A snitch it had to be.....The facking bastids. But I'm just getting ready for my big move now brother! Empty grow room and enough personal to get me thru until the move, so I'm good! Now I'm just a flush away from having nothing in here haha, so I feel much better! But then next run brother, I'm stepping it ALL THE WAY UP! Gotta keep getting better right?! Good luck and bless!
  14. Very nice! About to order some Damnesia here in the next couple weeks! Never had the AMS but when I lived in Holland and wanted to get FACKED, I would pick up some Amensia Haze or Black Widow! Bless
  15. And yes sir! I was talking about farbic pots or smart pots which are a little bit different then air pots. Both are great for use outdoor tho! Farbic pots might be a TAD cheaper than the air pots tho Air pots are the plastic pots with physical holes in them, while smart pots or fabric pots are fabric! And for outdoor, I'd go with a compost based medium bcuz it will go the distance for sure But on this forum, I'm about the only one that grows the way that I do lol, so I'm sure you'll get some different opinions about that if you ask around lol. If you have to feed tho, maybe you should go soiless? Mostly perlite and coir?
  16. Amazon or eBay you can find a 5 set of bags for $40 or less! I bought my 5 set from Amazon.com for $32 w/ free shipping!
  17. Karma.Karma.Karma. KKK.

      Thanks Stinky Pete :) I hope you live in a place that is more relaxed about cannabis than I :) Someday we will all be able to do this without any fuss hopefully, but until then I will go somewhere that is already in that place i.e. Holland or Spain :)

  22. Nice lol! And I'm hoping either on of them will share some of their marvelous pics lol, and whoever else wants to, I just know they've got nice buds on stash as I've been following them lol! I've still got thing curing, so I'll have to wait a minute! But speaking of, I do have some pics from the last run! Let me toss them up!
  23. Please help! See the link below that I've provided so that we can vote for Norml to have an ad air during the super bowl! http://blog.norml.org/2013/09/16/help-put-the-message-of-marijuana-legalization-before-millions-with-a-norml-super-bowl-ad/ Sure most of your are foreign and may not understand the significance of the super bowl here in America, but I can say with confidence that it is by far one of the most watched events in the world, if not the most watched event in the world! In the US, nothing comes close to it...Not the Emmys or the Grammys or the Music awards or Familiy Guy or the NBA Title or World Series or anything else.. With that said, we can have an impact just by simply giving 10 seconds of time to vote at this link that I've shared. Maybe not the largest impact as we're not actually voting for legaliztion here, but trust and believe that it will be HUGE for the world to premiere a cannabis specific ad during the superbowl! Also should add the ppl pay TENS OF MILLIONS od dollars for 10-30secs of ad time during the superbowl and that people DO NOT turn the channel away form the superbol the entire time... It's one of the few time the we actually look forward to commercials... But how about us giving ourselve something to look forward too! We don't realize the power or organizing until you see the outcome... I'll bump this post as many times as I can to see if I can get as many votes as possible We've got until February before the superbowl, so we've got the opportunity to get off to a running start... We're talking about a cannabis specific ad to be air before the world during the superbowl here! Let's work guys! Bless
  24. Bless brother! About to get my vote in for the day

About us

Strain Hunters is a series of documentaries aimed at informing the general public about the quest for the preservation of the cannabis plant in the form of particularly vulnerable landraces originating in the poorest areas of the planet.

Cannabis, one of the most ancient plants known to man, used in every civilisation all over the world for medicinal and recreational purposes, is facing a very real threat of extinction. One day these plants could be helpful in developing better medications for the sick and the suffering. We feel it is our duty to preserve as many cannabis landraces in our genetic database, and by breeding them into other well-studied medicinal strains for the sole purpose of scientific research.
