Hi All, I actually have two questions for this post. The first being... In the next few weeks I'll be getting ready to hang up my HSO Purple Trainwreck. The buds on this thing are very, very dense. Which lead me to wonder about how best to dry her out. If time permitted I would just hang it till its dry at the stems - but in this case I want a good dry with out stuffing the taste or how good the smoke is\could be but in a fairly short time. I had read that drying @ 27c and no higher is a good start and perhaps could have it dry \ smoke able in about 3-4 days. But I thought I would ask for advise on this first. Due to them being so dense it will be easy to th…

i have to plants growing and i was told when they are ready to harvest i should cut the plant just above the soil and then sit it in a pot of boiling sugar(and water), this will supposedly push the resin from the rest of the plant into the buds.Any you guys ever heard of this? is it accurate?

In another thread a grower was concerned that a camera flash might up set 'flowering'. I thought I'd post this here. There are two kinds of plants, long day and short day were, the length of the dark peroid is critical, If these plant experience a FLASH of RED during the dark cycle then they will flower or not flower depending on their make up. Cannabis is a short day plant for flowering, that is if the day is long the plant wont flower. The pix below show how this works; with a VERY exciting true to come out of this. Its all about the hormones. If you take the branch of one of the plants inside a tent; extend that outside the tent into the rest of a DARKEND room then t…

Well with a little help from my friends I was able to get this camera going. The provided sofware allows both stills and video capture. NOW I can see the trichs develop and 200X is way better than the other 400x Veho microscope that I have. The depth of feild is too shallow on the 400x and getting an idea of the Trichrome count is too hard. Most seem to aim for a 3-5% Amber ration for a head high and 10-50% ratio of amber to cloudy Trich for a body stone.

Hey everyone, I'm new to the forum. This is my first serious outdoor grow and I want to get the harvesting time right. Looking at photo's online it seems like the difference between clear and cloudy trichs can be hard to tell depending on the light. Some parts of my plant have a fair few amber ones. It's a silver haze plant and has been flowering since early Feb, so just over 2 months. Sorry about the blurriness of some of the photo's, it was hard to keep the plant still while taking them. Thanks in advance for the feedback

I never thought I'd say that but I have way too much bud atm I had one plant in the back yard and it gave me approx. 21oz of weed. Now 21oz is a helluva lot of stuff to keep around and under normal conditions would last me well over a year but can I keep it that long? I've read about vaccupacking and keeping it in the freezer for up to a year without degradation but wouldn't it have to be 100% dry before it can get anywhere near a freezer? A little moisture will cause it to actually freeze and the cells of the plant material to break down and it would all get yucky mush when taken out and defrosted again. At this point I keep it all in mason jars and large ZipLock ba…

Hi everyone, I have a rather good problem - way too many buds and not enough glass to cure them all in and still 4 more plants to harvest! So, as I only need so much for smoking and giving to friends and family, I was wondering whether it's actually necessary to cure cannabis if smoking is not the desired use of the end product. I'm pretty sure that I've read that you can freeze wet buds and use to make bubble hash. But you need dry, though not necessarily cured, for tumbled hash. What about for making BHO or iso extractions? I'm contemplating having a go at some of these in the near future. Cheers for any input.

Hi Everyone, This is Serious Seeds' Bubblegum grown from regular seed in the ground. Mid-January I split the main trunk in 1/2 trying to LST her way too late. I pulled the 4 main limbs together as best I could and duct taped it up. I applied Seasol and the plant continued to grow like a monster. This is how the repair job looks now. Around the end of January she started yellowing significantly but every time I tried to feed her she curled her leaves together and didn't seem to like it. I did also do some Googling and determined that this is a very nutrient sensitive strain. So I have made no further attempts to fertilise although have given Seasol and BS…

Okay, so I have a problem. I will be going away early April for 4 weeks, this will be harvest time for my outdoor ladies. I plan to leave 2 of my plants to dry for the 4 weeks. ( I know this may be too long but I have no choice.) My question is can I just pull my other 2 give them a minimal trim & chuck in the freezer for 4 weeks without compromising them. I want to use these to for oil & hash & the other 2 for BHO.

Hey everyone I'm wondering how long I could store weed for ? My idea was mason jars in a cool dark spot and burp them every so often. I've got smoke now that's nearly a year old and is still good.
