SHiNi

Thanks for the info guys I appreciate it

Sorry to jack the thread but is this TA Organics really fully organic like BioBizz?

Decided on the BBM and SC for this season next season tart pops and OKC

Thanks guys appreciate it  

What that GSC like ? And I'm looking more towards the cookies/Gelato terps then the fruity citrus type.

So it's between Blueberry Muffin and Tart Pops. And yeah true they really make it hard to decide.

Any other votes ?

that doesn't look like too much brother, I've had way leafier strains, those buds look good from what I can see through the jars. hope you at least enjoying the smoke?

did you put them in jars untrimmed? I've seen lots of people doing that lately, but if you think about it, the resin carries the terpenes and all the other fun stuff and the resin is only in the trichomes, so putting any leaf you wouldn't smoke in a jar with a bud that smell will affect your bud. I personally just avoid it, cause I collect my sugar leaf for pressing and if you smell the bag of just sugar leaf already doesn't smell as good as the jars of bud. so I don't want the "not as good smell" drag the "very good smell" down at all. 

I don't bring anything that doesn't have trichomes on it close to my jars  

 

Lol I just trimmed most of the big leaves of but left those between the buds and some R1 size leaves got tired of trimming lol and since I took them off no more hay smell after 24hrs just clean green . Haven't smoked some yet gonna give it another week for a smoke test thanks for the tip bro appreciate it you like a walking Wikipedia you always learn something if you just read.peace

My vote is for Blueberry Muffin or Orange Kush Cake

Thanks bro appreciate it I read up on them and blueberry muffin sounds delicious and like the effects of the OKC so far I'm leaning with BBM unless some of the growmies can send something more delicious suggestions my way. Thanks again

Didn't take a pic of buds outside of the jar but both were 3/4 full but this is what I'm left with

Hammer on the head

the other side is if you got poop genetics doesn't matter what you do condition wise, it's gona come out poop. but you literally get all different creeds of "weed". I've grown incredibly frosty plants that taste horrible, grow the same cut a few times cause I think maybe I fucked it up, but then it comes out like that everytime. I've grown airy buds that have more resin than some dense buds I've grown. I've had super terpy and frosty nugs not make me high at all and I've had buds that don't look too frosty and got no smell got me more goofed than most generic strains... but then I don't enjoy the smoke so it's not like one or the other, it's more like there's a million different ways it can go, you on a tight rope and gotta find that balance by making sure you do many things right. for example, get the right seeds + do what ever you can to improve grow conditions + learn to speak plant so you don't have to wait to already see damage then fix it rather try avoiding damage at all costs, and a few other things. 

It's a pleasure typing them I can yap about plants and plant people all day. We love to present ourselves with this ethereal positivite force always in a good mood, always spreading postivity always affirming everything and there's no right or wrong way nature works in balance, that's the whole point. we have good and bad, right and wrong and even more than that we have a spectrum of how right and how wrong.

here is a photo I came across on the internet, some of my friends will have their jars filled with buds like these 

and that's perfectly fine for them, their priorities lies elsewhere, again not saying it to be mean, it just is what it is. people who get offended by the truth needs to accept and conform to the truth so they can be in a better mental state. People smoke leaf with no resin on. fuck knows why, I think it comes from a time being short of weed and now wanting to smoke as much as possible. and as they say, "beauty lies in the eye of the beholder" and some dudes just don't mind a woman with extra baggage  

to answer your question, I would say 1st thing to worry about is genetics for sure, almost just as important is light, stuff like a light leak may make you think you got herm genetics, but it's just a condition flaw. Weak light, insufficient light, wrong colour spectrum will all have you produce poooo. Like on a colour spectrum wheel, you have opposite ends, you can put the very best grow light on one end and on the other end you put a 10w CFL bulb, it's quite obvious that the cfl grow will produce the airiest fluffiest shittiest non smokable twig and leaf looking nonsense bud, where the grow with the decent light will already put you way ahead of the other grow. but then you can have the best genetics, best light, but you run your humidity too high you can suffocate and stunt growth on the plants, may get a few nice buds. but again you gona think the genetics is kak if you don't get a good expression, cause of conditions. so yeah, a fine line of many different things you have to balance, not one or the other

Lol so after reading this thread and looking at yout gorgeous bud porn and reading up on hay smell while drying my conditions was not optimal since it was a winter grow and was drying in the room was hot harvested 2 weeks ago. I opened the jars and started trimming away the leaves as best I could. I saw that I had more leaves in there then bud lmao thanks guys for the encouragement and looking forward to my next harvest.

This is all the leaves I got off the buds lol so you can imagine how bad it was

So as the title says I'm looking to get 2 strains from DaggaPharmacy one is definitely SC but can't make up my mind on the second one.Im looking for something with a nice taste something sweet since the only weed I smoked was sour or gas or burnt rubber lol the ( "Outdoor and Indoor ") of the black market always no strain name so if there is anything on the lists you would suggest I'd appreciate it.

Mostly time, mostly skill. Some strains are also just much easier to trim. 

 

Thanks Evan that's the only thing I hate about growing is trimming lol takes forever

Beautifull ladies I just have one question how do you get your ladies trimmed so nicely? No leaf in sight.

I see Digi Key has stock

Hi, if you are in Cape Town, you can try Dagga Farmacy. They have a nice cheese cut. The call it Super cheese. But what I have seen from all the cuts going around that one is the best.

Thanks bro I'm already a member on dagga pharmacy.i think it was you who previously referred me to them quite a selection they have thanks again.Waiting for outdoor season have my eyes on 5 cuts I want from them and super cheese is one of them.

Sorry I missed this one. I had both types of aircon. The portable is a waste unless its' a  "dual hose model" which is more expensive than a split unit, very inefficient.

And yes, expanding foam is very expensive...not a option

Example of a local dual hose portable

Never knew portables could be more expensive then split models.I think I'll have to invest in a split model for the structure.

Myself moving from a 2.4 x 1.2 tent in a double garage to a 60x60cm tent in a spare room it can get tricky with either one having it's own extremes.

*Humidity. My experience in CPT. Further north it's the opposite humidity and season-wise.

Sorry to hear that bro must have been a big adjustment to make going from the big space to almost one plant.

14 hours ago, TheLazyFisherman said:

You could even aircon your main house and pull that air into the structure in your yard .Depends on your pocket really

I think that would probably work out more expensive if I had to guess lol.

1 hour ago, TheLazyFisherman said:

All the above will help except the foam might not work because you will still be pulling hot air from outside or inside the structure

 

That is true yes didn't think of that so aircon it will have to be then.I understand now what you mean control the temperature in the structure and it will control the temp in the growspace except fir humidity or do I have it wrong.Thanks alot bro i appreciate it really.

Lol that shaded cloth idea is a no go lol was thinking more of integrating something into the structure.

Was even thinking of adding fillable foam in the cavities of the blocks just for the grow section lol.Airconditioners is crazy expensive or you talking about a portable one just for the grow space?

And here I thought I had to insulate against the cold lol.So would you advise I build the grow section add on, on the side that won't get direct sun? Properly insulate the roof since it will be IBR sheets only with structural timber.Or could I use Styrofoam as thick as cold storage rooms and add a panel to each wall of the grow space and one on the roof part aswell.Trying to not let the outside environment affect that grow space like have its own climate.

The m190 blocks does have a cavity.But not cavity in the sense of brick wall with a cavity.if that makes sense my knowledge of building is very limited this is a pic of the block.

Hey guys so I'm gonna be building a structure in the yard with M190 cement blocks I'm thinking of encorperating a grow space in the plans.Still deciding on the exact size what I want to know is when it comes to insulation what can I use? The space will be plastered just thinking that I will need some type of insulation.Any ideas or suggestions welcome thanks in advance.

Hey bro nice grow what's the plan with the sts?

Does he perhaps have 3 big ass greenhouses in his yard ?
