  1. Howzit everyone

     

    I'm a pretty experienced Hort who's just looking for more plant knowledge. I'm looking forward to learning more of the Cannabis genus and hope I will have good info to share too.

     

    Very excited to be part of the South African community!

  2. Hey there my fellow Mystics,

    Thought I would share something lady-like from the younger ladies.

    So about 12 hours after their first LST session, the ladies covered their stems. The Cookies & Cream did not have a fan leaf shading her stem from the light, so this is what this young lady did...1DA-LST-01.thumb.jpg.44520976363c69b32e2e2d09d5b7be26.jpg

    She covered her own stem,

    Amazing 🤩

    I appreciated witnessing this tiny adjustment and again just marvel at the awesomeness of nature!

    Till next time. 😉

  3. My fellow Mystics,

    It's here, 🤩 the 450w Quad Board with Samsung Diodes 2 x Meanwell drivers and dimmer. (1290 PPFD) over 100 DLi.

    The ladies are loving it almost as much as I am.

    (I never in my life thought I would spend this much on a light, but hey I purchased half a sun for the ladies.😂)

    420 Love till next time mystics.

      Just be careful with it. Those LEDs with the thin metal plate as a "heatsink" can get omega hot to the point of degrading the diodes. If it gets so hot that you can't physically touch the metal plate, I would recommend having a fan blowing over the whole fixture.

  4. So, turns out the raven they used was a Weasley raven, but on the calendar cycle of the 14th day of April 2023 on Herbal Valentine's Day it finally arrived.

    GSR1.jpg.f52fb78d6fdd043d9af47529b0ff4a86.jpg

    GSR2.jpg.12140db2b1b568cfd524cd1d828c752c.jpg

    The druids of the GSR also sent another northling, 2 more golds and 10 beans of the Ethos, Lemon Diesel a strain I must know more about. 
    Do any of you mystics out there know of this Strain? A few moons after this, I received another scroll and it read.,

    "Good day, friend. Ethos Genetics is a revered cultivator of cannabis strains, using both traditional and modern methods to create unique and potent blends. 
    One of their notable creations is Lemon Diesel, a hybrid strain made by crossing California Sour and Lost Coast OG. Lemon Diesel boasts a fragrant citrus aroma and flavour and can bring about uplifting effects. With its high THC content, it has been known to alleviate symptoms of depression, anxiety, and chronic pain. Ethos Genetics has also developed their own version, which they've dubbed Citrus Sap, by breeding Gorilla Glue #4 with Tangie. May this knowledge serve you well on your journey. - Unsigned"

    So, in a mere 3 weeks, I am now up to my ankles with scrolls of information from different druids. Allow me to bring you up to speed of my journey; It was Tuesday, March 28, 2023, when a raven reached marijuanasa.co.za the raven's request read: "Two Cream of the Cookies, Two Cookies made by Girl Scout and Two Sour drops of the Diesel - none that bows to light".

    The 3rd, 4th and 5th scrolls read as follows..., 

    "I am CookiesAndCreamDruid, a druid of the Cannabis plant, and I come to you with tales of a legendary strain that has captured the hearts and minds of Cannabis enthusiasts for generations: Cookies & Cream Feminized Auto Flower. Legend has it that this strain was created in the fertile lands of the West Coast, where the gods of the plant kingdom infused their magic into the very essence of the plant.

    The effects of Cookies & Cream are said to be a divine experience, transporting the user to a realm of pure euphoria and relaxation. Its potency and popularity have made it a favourite among both new and experienced users, with its high THC content and complex terpene profile producing a potent and long-lasting high that is unmatched by any other strain.

    However, cultivating this divine plant under lights is not without its challenges. The strain is known to be sensitive to changes in temperature and humidity and requires precise care and attention to thrive. But those who master the art of cultivating Cookies & Cream are rewarded with an experience unlike any other, as the plant's rich aroma and flavour infuse the very air with its magic.

    Join me, fellow druids, as we delve deeper into the secrets of Cookies & Cream, unlocking the mysteries of this divine strain and discovering the magic that lies within. Together, we shall explore the depths of its power and potential and uncover the true essence of this Cannabis plant."

    "I am GirlScoutDruid, a druid of the Cannabis plant, and I come to you with tales of a legendary strain that has captivated the hearts and minds of Cannabis enthusiasts for years: Girl Scout Cookies Feminized Auto Flower. Legend has it that this strain was born from a unique combination of Durban Poison, OG Kush, and Cherry Kush, creating a flavour and aroma that is as irresistible as freshly baked cookies.


    The effects of Girl Scout Cookies are said to be powerful and long-lasting, with a high that starts in the head and slowly spreads throughout the body, creating a sense of euphoria and relaxation that is perfect for unwinding after a long day. Its potency and popularity have made it a favourite among both new and experienced users, with its complex flavour profile and high THC content creating a truly unique experience.


    Girl Scout Cookies has played a pivotal role in the world of genetic cultivation, as breeders have sought to capture its unique properties and create new strains that capture its essence. Its popularity among growers and users alike has made it a cornerstone of the Cannabis community, with many seeking to unlock the secrets of this legendary strain and use its power to explore the depths of the mind. Join me, fellow druids, as we venture into the heart of the Cannabis plant, unlocking the mysteries of Girl Scout Cookies and discovering the magic that lies within."

    "I am SourDieselMystic, a druid of the herb who has been exploring the mysteries of its power for many moons. I come to you with tales of a legendary strain that has captivated the hearts and minds of cultivators and users alike: Sour Diesel Feminized Auto Flower. It is said that this strain originated from the mysterious depths of the Diesel family tree, where its unique properties were carefully crafted by generations of cultivators.


    The effects of Sour Diesel are said to be out of this world, transporting the user to a state of heightened awareness and clarity where the mind is free to explore the deepest reaches of the cosmos. Its potency and popularity have made it a favourite among both new and experienced users, with its high THC content and complex terpene profile producing a potent and long-lasting high that is not soon forgotten.


    Sour Diesel has played a significant role in the world of genetic cultivation, as breeders have sought to harness its unique properties and create new strains that capture its essence. Its popularity among growers and users alike has made it a cornerstone of the Cannabis community, with many seeking to unlock the secrets of this legendary strain and use its power to expand their understanding of the universe. However, cultivating Sour Diesel can be a challenge, as it requires a specific balance of nutrients, light, and temperature to thrive. Join me, fellow mystics, as we venture into the world of Sour Diesel and unlock the secrets of its power and potential."


    2 Days later a Raven returned with these...,

  5. My journey began recently, I received a mysterious message from a fellow cultivator speaking of special strains and druids that old their secrets. 
    It wasn't long after this that I received 2 scrolls..., I read them and, intrigued, I dispatched ravens to inquire further, across the mountains to 
    retreive the 2 strains mentioned in these scrolls.

    The 1st scroll read as follows. 
    "Greetings fellow seekers of the divine plant, I am MalawiGoldDruid, a druid who has dedicated my life to unravelling the mysteries of the Cannabis strain known as Malawi Gold. Legend has it that this strain was first discovered deep in the heart of Malawi, a land steeped in ancient magic and hidden knowledge. It is said that the local shamans and healers prized this strain above all others, using it for its potent healing and spiritual properties.

    The effects of Malawi Gold are said to be otherworldly, taking the user on a journey through time and space, unlocking hidden knowledge. and ancient wisdom. The potency of this strain is legendary, with its high THC content and unique terpene profile. Its rarity only adds to its mystique, as it is believed to be a true landrace strain, grown in the wilds of Malawi for centuries, untouched by modern breeding techniques.

    Sadly, Malawi Gold is now a lost part of this land's indigenous heritage, a victim of the modern world's obsession with hybridization and genetic modification. But I believe that the spirit of this sacred strain lives on, waiting to be rediscovered by those who seek its ancient knowledge and healing properties. Join me, fellow druids, as we journey into the heart of the Cannabis plant, unlocking the secrets of Malawi Gold and reawakening its magic for a new generation.

    Also take heart, experts debate ORIGIN of Malawi's TRUE gold.
    The region where the Nyika Plateau and the Viphya Mountains are located VS.
    The region where the Zomba Plateau and the Mulanje Massif are located.
    ...and even among the experts the mystery continues..."

    The MalawiGoldDruid


    The 2nd scroll read as follows.
    "Greetings, fellow seekers of the divine herb! I am NorthernLightsDruid, a druid of the Cannabis plant, and I come to you with tales of a legendary strain that has captivated the hearts and minds of Cannabis enthusiasts for generations: Northern Lights Feminized Auto Flower. Legend has it that this strain originated in the heart of the Aurora Borealis, where the spirits of the Cannabis plant dance among the Northern Lights and weave their magic into the very fabric of the universe.

    The effects of Northern Lights are said to be otherworldly, transporting the user to a realm beyond space and time where the mind is free to explore the deepest mysteries of the universe. Its potency and popularity have made it a favourite among both new and experienced users, with its high THC content and complex terpene profile producing a potent and long-lasting high that is not soon forgotten.

    Northern Lights has played a pivotal role in the world of genetic cultivation, as breeders have sought to harness its unique properties and create new strains that capture its essence. Its popularity among growers and users alike has made it a cornerstone of the Cannabis community, with many seeking to unlock the secrets of this legendary strain and use its power to expand their understanding of the universe. Join me, fellow druids, as we venture into the heart of the Cannabis plant, unlocking the mysteries of Northern Lights and discovering the magic that lies within."

    The NorthernLightsDruid

    It was Sunday, March 26, 2023, when a raven reached greensmokeroomseeds.com the raven's request read: 
    "Three Nights of the Northlings that does not bow to light and five ancient Golds of Malawi."

    But Alas! it seemed that the raven carrying the response was lost. Undeterred, I continued to search for any information on this elusive order, consulting with fellow druids and growers alike. While the trail seems to have gone cold for now, I remain hopeful that soon I will uncover what happened to the ravens. And so, a short time would pass, and a raven would return with a note...
    ...to be continued...

      Unfortunate about the raven. 

      Are you only specifically seeking the Northern Lights and Malawi Gold at this time? I'll have a look around and see what's cutting, maybe get some of the crew involved and see.

  6. Greetings fellow cultivators, I am a newbie indoor grower who has just embarked on my attempt at growing the mystic herb. However, do not be fooled by my newbie status, for I am a veteran connoisseur who has been exploring the magical properties of this plant for many moons. I have spent countless hours perfecting my craft, studying the art of cultivation, and unlocking the secrets of the divine plant.

    My journey into the world of indoor growing has been a solitary one, shrouded in secrecy and mystery. But I have recently decided to venture into the online community in search of like-minded individuals who share my passion for this sacred herb. My first six indoor grows have been an adventure thus far, filled with ups and downs, quests for lights, recipes for magical nutrition, ancient ways of training and observation, but I have learned much and have come to appreciate the beauty and complexity of this plant even more.

    As I write this, my current crop of six seedlings, which I got as seeds from MarijuanaSA, 3 of which are 7 days old (Sour Diesel, Girl Scout Cookies and Cookies & Cream) and 3 of which are 14 days old (Same mystical strains), each one a unique expression of the plant's divine essence. I have carefully tended to their every need, nourishing them with the finest nutrients and basking them in the glow of my LED grow lights. I am excited to see what the future holds for these young plants and for my journey as an indoor grower.

    Join me, and together we shall unlock the mysteries of this sacred plant and explore the depths of its power and potential.

  15. Latest update!  (Bubbleberry GLUE)

    Flower time is upon me, looking bare... but I think the worst of it is done. Been such a joy getting thus far. Will be sticking to a progressive regiment with regard to feeding organically. But mostly taking it as it comes. @StickyD420 notice anything diff bro 😎 applied some of the notes I got, and now we streamline. Also covering a bit more volume after amending. Keeping an eye out for a good flowering spot. Trying to mitigate loadingshedding troubles. Or possibly thinking a rechargeable LED box light, plugs in the wall and switches on when lights go off? Or maybe small UPS route... but working out costing, and not even sure what it cost. Not to mention this cold, growth could be faster... heaters doing it’s best I guess... but no rush right🙌🏻

    But none the less This stanky bunch has made me quite proud ☝🏻😬

    What’s growing on?!
