  1. Nice man, I also have the same seedsman northern lights auto into late flower now, mine is like a quater of your size as mine started its life outdoors, the weather has not been the greatest so far this year, I put it into my grow box on preflower, mine has a very lemon, citrus terp profile, not bad trichome production under scope.
  2. personally I would say more amber, at least 15-20% for nice balance
  3. Nice buds there, really liking super silver haze looks killa!
  4. Sup Man, That is quite a large area you plan on lighting, not gonna be cheap if you want full light coverage, I think you should be looking in the region of 400 real watts and up, locally the cheapest are from grow opz, check their range, if you gonna cheap Chinese type LED box with average components you gonna need like 3 or 4 of those "1000 watt " ebay lights to get some better results. I went the china grow box Diy route, Built in a 75cm x75cmx150cm thick wood, with extraction fan and air intake and diamond Mylar( +/_ 3.5K) set up in my garage , can comfortably grow 3 medium sized autos in there, they busy preflowering at the moment, enjoying the spectacle :)
  5. Haha lol, my wife thinks I'm smoking crack, she does not care about my growing, never wants to see things to do with my plants but, when harvest comes she asks where her jars ? I can spend hours just staring , she says I look like a serial killer , it is by far one of my favorite hobby I have partaken in , the reward with a successful harvest, knowing that you can nurture and nourish a plant of this earth to its full potential is amazing, this lockdown in my grow room is going better, only thing keeping me sane lol.
  6. Nah I don't buy this craft cannabis thing, just the name craft will add another r100 bucks to the price, let me guess ( R250-300....? ), its either proper indoor, greenhouse, outdoor or jutt, these businesses have stupid grading systems to put a fat mark up on their prices...... you would be very surprised the result's you can get from a basic set up doing it your self, best of luck to you
  7. Feedback, no communication, ordered yesterday delivered 10am today , impressed

Any feedback would be appreciated. Best regrads
  11. hehe I remember as teenagers we would always challenge each other to see who has the highest tolerance lol, then once passed the point of no return you would get greenies or yellow fever as we called it, we had some friend who thought they could smoke , a nice indoor cheese in a fat bong took many guys out, first cold sweats, face color changing like a chameleon, cant stand eventually,puke and be crippled for the next few hours, I have even seen someone have like a seizure / low bloods pass out and wake up like nothing happened. Much older now 30's, tolerance is very high, I remember smoking a moon rock in a bong a while back, that was like taking a hit of crack lol, I have never done crack, my eyes will spinning like a slot machine was really strong but, after a while tolerance builds ups, I found I was always chasing a stronger high that I could never go back to, I decided no more moon rocks or dabs as it was going to another level. I just hit Js and odd bong now. Funny story the other day we went for a Boys day fishing at the vaal, our one buddy who is not a stoner or smoker who always take a puff or 2 of our joints(indoor) while fishing with us would not really ever get stoned we made sure he was inhaling it properly but the effects never really seemed to get to him ( fitness freak) we tried many times over the years. Soo long story short, we were on the road at 3 am, me and my buddy surprised him with some edibles (first time) I bought some gummies 100 mg and my buddy brought a brownie, gave him half the gums ( 50mg) and he had half of the brownie, once we reached the vaal, we had to drive on a dirt farm road for 40ish KM to get to our fishing spot, he was sitting in the backseat of the double cab, we noticed he was really quite we looked back to see him with a smile from ear to ear, he was on a space rocket ride lol and was laughing his head off the whole time, enjoying every second of being proper goofed for the first time, this put me and my bud in such a great vibe, we were super amped to get fishing, got to our sopt around half 5 in the morning, fresh cold air, water looking like glass, set up gear and ready to cast, awesome ! Our buddy mumbled to us that he don't think he can cast his bait properly, he casted like 20 meters we giggled at him and he sat down on his chair...... and that was the end of him, he never got up again KO........ eventually he was not looking too good we bucketed him over the head with cold water, kind of woke him up a little bit, forced him to try and eat something, had a few bites out KO again lol only woke up when we got to the wimpy, a cheese burger and coffee shake fixed him up , he said he should of just stayed at home cause he never got to fish lol, me and my buddy caught loads of fish. Turns out my buddies brownie was like 500MG so we did the maths, 50MG+250MG is what raped his soul, he had the gummies first so I think that why he was enjoying it soo much until the 250MG kicked him in his P.....s lol We tease him every time we see him, and I always send him pics of new edibles acquired and tell him to come get his breakfast lol, we all laugh together like small children :) Cant wait for our next fishing trip and a lower dose for him.
  12. Yup agreed the yield is average most of the times , the cheap prices and varieties you get now days is mind blowing, you do find 1 special seed every now and then like the lottery , it has taught me loads about plants, I will prob eventually progress to indoor, jealous of buddies having mega dank harvests, I think is relatively low cost and less maintenance compared to indoor, I got some fem Grand daddy Purps Fem just waiting for me get some decent lights lol cant wait for the whole 9 yards Lst, topping, and netting, I know more or less just what to do I think, must just figure out PH parts
  13. I personally love Autos, I know from seed to harvest (outdoor), it will take me about 3ish months to get there, it is mostly fool proof. Key growing points for me is get it into its final pot as soon as possible, apply LST as soon as you can, having proper feeding schedule with the right nutrient's and light defoliation if needed. I had some nice results already, harvested 3 white cheeses already, not monster plants but filled up a few jars , nothing can beat homegrown and properly cured bud, it really woke me up after all these years of buying from guys, this outdoor has the same if not more trichomes than the R150 a gram " Local indoor" that is sold around and the taste was not far off, I could roast this everyday. My personal fav Auto seeds is from dinafem, every seed I ever planted sprouted, I don't even presoak the seed, just make a 1 or 2 cm hole with your finger, drop the seed in and cover with your chosen medium, a shot glass of Tap water everyday until it pops. Dinafem genetics is stable from what I have grown and seen others grow(indoor), slight differences in Phenos traits, good resistance to mold and bugs, generally foolproof if you follow instructions; my Fav is so far is def white cheese and Gorilla. I need to order more seed asap! I have started my next run of Autos already I got 2 seedsman NL and 3 Advanced seeds pineapple glue grown with Bio Leaf coco mix ,outdoors in 8 lt Pots cant wait already :) Nice thing about autos is that they do not get too big, I can freely move them around depending where the best sunlight is and can also move them out of harms way ( hail, rain, pets..... It is ideal for beginners and in expert hands can get some very surprising results in min time. Best Regards
  14. Yup in jozi, can be done now, my seedlings about 2 weeks old, should be done before june, need to squeeze last harvest before cold sets in
  15. If Autoflowers, you must checkout cannucks grow on youtube, gets some crazy closet harvests done quickly edit; I think one of his highest yielding Autos was Dinafem's "Moby Dick"
  16. Haha some matchbox Jutt will treat the insomnia no problems lol
  17. Arie Guys, Grew up in Joburg, Bruma area near the old flea market, it was zol capital of joburg lol. Interesting to see how weed has changed, we all started on good old majat in match boxes ( Smelt like arm Pits) , lol progressed to bank bags depending on quality from R50-R70 a full bankie, light green pollenhash R20 a gram, siff chocolate hash we used to carry around golf balls. there was a few occasions we got real Malawi gold and Rooibaard 15 years ago, I have never seen rooibaart again, I remember a ruler sized head that was almost completely red/orange hairs, I took it on a camping trip, all my buddies remember hahah around the fire, this couple nearby our spot came over to enquire about the delicious smells, so we offered ,they each had a few pulls and choked on it, that couple were in a coma the next day haha, the guy came to thank us later the next day, he said it was some of the best he ever smoked. Most of the good stuff for us was from Swaziland, till this day I have not seem any of the good swazi we used to get, it was def better than the majority of outdoors we get, light green luminous heads that stink of chronic, or the coffee aroma of Malawi gold when grinded up, man I miss those days...... :( , sad one day those landraces will all be wiped out with all these new genetics available, the higher up in Swaziland the better the bud. Indoor was easily acquirable since I was a teen, back in the day it was white widow, Chronic and northern lights, could get a bankie 8-10 grams for R400, we would put all our money together to buy at least once a month. Have bought parcels in Rural KZN wrapped in news paper, heads size of rulers no seeds, about R300 for like half a KG, not the strongest but nice beautiful bud. Lived in en route for a few years, got to know cheese very quickly, had many rasta friends n Judah Square Kynsna ( Rasta village in heart of township). always struggled to get half decent outdoor there, most stuff from port st johns was close to jut, some of the strongest indoors I have smoked is from the cape. Fast forward many years back in Joburg, I feel price of zol is plain ridiculous now, R150 -R200 a gram of indoor which is not even stronger that the stuff back in the day, get half decent hybridized swazi still. With the decriminalization , I planted a few bag seeds got awesome results last year did 3 harvests, learnt a lot. Now I got 3 dinafem whitecheese (outdoor) prob a month away from harvest :) , time to get more seeds haha. Best regards to all!
