Hey guys, i just never got around to cooking last years trim/leaf into oil. Its stayed in a big plastic bag with ventilation on top under my bed for the last 12 months. Would it be OK to cool this into oil at this point? I usually get water to simmering, melt in the butter, then add in the grinded trim mix, stir it/let it sit for about 6 hours whilst very lightly simmering, then strain, add water, repeat (will need less the second time), then combine water, let it sit in fridge overnight and all the butter will raise to the top of the water, you pull it off with your fingers, clean off the bottom of the butter that was touching the water and your done. I just want to …

First time grower got couple of plants both 1.5 months old. Have noticed some (what I assume is) pre flower little caps. Please see attached photos and if you know either way pls let me know. From my little knowledge I would guess that plant 1 is female but plant 2 male.

Ok guys/gals , I know there is a heap of info regarding hermies etc all over the net but I can't seems to find an answer for a few questions I have. I'm currently starting week five of flower and unfortunately around week 3 I had my best female (of three) go hermie also unfortunately I didn't notice until shim dropped pollen and impregnated my two other girls. As soon as I noticed I removed the hermie outside and sprayed down the two other girls with water. The hermie I cut the balls off and left it outside to grow and hopefully it lasts long enough to make into hash (no other male parts have formed). Now two weeks later I can see numerous seeds in the remaining two plant…

Hi people, I've been looking at the above website and wondering if it's worth a punt. I'm guessing people here will say not to risk it. If I were to risk it, what are the chances it would get through customs? Cheers, GoodStuff

Hi everyone, I'm looking at buying some White Widow seeds online for growing indoors. I want to be able to produce 500 grams - yes, I know, ambitious. It's for Rick Simpson Oil. This website talks about yield in terms of light wattage: http://www.theweedblog.com/how-much-marijuana-does-a-marijuana-plant-yield/ But how many seeds do I need? Is a pack of 4 seeds enough? Here is the stuff I want to buy: http://www.herbiesheadshop.com/female-white-widow-x-big-bud-feminised-seeds-2376 Thanks, GoodStuff

I got a job in the city and need it so will have to pack up my grow closets and put it all away for another day. Unfortunately I was just getting to the stage after 8 months where I would start to get a regular supply so I don't have anything saved for the future besides my small stash and what I have in flower. I would hope my next place will allow me to grow a couple of discreet plants but I would have to wait sometime to make sure it's all OK. Until then I will have to decide what to do here with my plants. I'm glad I did get a little seed collection together in the last 8 months or so I have been going. So I can keep the strains from the 3 females and 1 male seed I …

Hey guys first time major post, just got a few questions and was hoping for any tips my current room setup is 4x600w hps in 100% perlite with (4)50L pots on top of a squat pot with oxygen to the roots, and a 200L res. On a timer that feeds every 3 Hours for 15 minutes. at the moment im vegging 4 girls each 1 under a 600W on 20/4. the space i am working with is around 2.6 long by 2.3. so my current goal was to get a minimum of 3.5 pound from the room along with a pre raise veg tent 1.5mx1.5m in my other room with 4 girls under a 400w MH in the same setup ready to go in once my others are done, although im not there yet. so my questions are, is my goal obtainable? i curr…

Hey guys got a bit of an issue, currently growing 3 THC Bomb Autoflowers however one of them has sprouted in the very worst place. While I was planting the germinated seeds, I dropped a seed and couldn't see it in the hole I dug or anywhere for that matter. After giving up I placed a thin layer of dirt over the entire pot incase it didn't make it into the hole. Well sure enough it sprouted and with my luck it happened to be on the very edge of the pot- I tried to sprinkle some dirt around it and have a little bit of dirt between the stem and the pot. I've done a couple outdoor grows but this is my first indoor with hps and also my first autoflower and have never stuffed …

This came up in my Facebook news feed. I thought it might be relevant to cannabis growing: http://tenplay.com.au/channel-ten/the-project/top-stories/tomatoes-take-to-aspirin I also noticed that there's a very old thread on this site about this very topic. It's interesting to see that this represents additional evidence to support the idea of using aspirin for plant health. https://cannabis.community.forums.ozstoners.com/topic/11308-using-aspirin-as-resistance-to-diseases-and-pests/ Just thought people might get some use from this. I don't know if it's worth trying myself, as I grow in a little cupboard which is very clean and I don't seem to have any problem with …

I mentioned in my Diary that my plant was yellowing from the bottom after its move(better sun position) and release of the LST but is otherwise healthy and has been in flower about 2 weeks. One poster suggested upping the feeding frequency, another poster suggested in could be root bound. It could be root bound when you consider the following This a Diesel Auto planted 145 days ago into a 410mm pot and did not begin to flower until about 135 days. Since this has been in the pot for so long (150 days) I would have thought by now it may just need to be re-potted because if it wasn't root bound now she can't be far away from it... With that in mind I have managed to score …

I purchased about 5 seeds last year, one I screwed up so I was left with 4 seedlings. One was a male which was great and it was a really nice looking aromatic male too, So the male has been kept as a breeder and I now have a slowly growing stash of seeds. I crossed the make with the 3 females. One of the females is an ugly plant but it has one heck of a kick when I smoke it. The branches are bare with few nodes and it would be the type of plant you would weed out but as it has such a nice smoke. It also gets what looks like nutrient burn really easy and many of the leaves get brown and crisp but I give the same nutrients to the other plants and they love them. it's a…
