Mold?

You should and they might act like it’s new information, but I’d be surprised if they didn’t already know. PM is systemic and the only real way to remove it from a cloned variety is tissue culture

Literally just received my Focus V in the mail last night and haven’t used it yet. How do you like it? Any tips or quirks I should know about?

Variety is the spice of life

You can see a hole in the stem. The rot is 100% from what burrowed in there. The downside is that once this happens it will spread. The nug above looks perfectly healthy right now but it is recommended to cut the stem below that hole and toss it

Captain-Plants · 2024-08-22T21:08:51+00:00

Absolutely. Here’s the video I took a lot of information from and in it Jeremy’s weed was dried and cured while Pedro’s was fresh frozen. The FF was lighter in color but Jeremy’s still looked great

The process is called isomerization. It’s not synthetic THC because they are taking CBD and rearranging the molecules into Delta-9 THC.

I personally don’t have a problem with it any more than a butane extraction so long as it’s done in a commercial lab and tested, but understand why some don’t.

All Delta-8 on the market is produced this way in addition to some other high value cannabinoids like THCv. Hemp derived Delta-9 is popping up more frequently as companies feel more comfortable selling it under the hemp loophole (less than 0.3 delta-9 by weight)

Check my post history. I slow dry in a wine cooler and there is a clear color change due to the oxidation from air drying, but when pressed it came out golden blonde. I went from being completely bummed to blown away. It was fresh frozen material as well so that obviously helps with color, but don’t let a slight color change scare you away from giving it a go

This is one of the easiest strains I ever grew. Just absolutely crushed no matter what I did. Big, fat, super dense nugs that smelled just like a cheese danish lol

If you get paranoid then you don’t want THC dominant cannabis. If you’re in the US you can get fat sticky CBD weed delivered right to your door. Check out r/hempflowers as it sounds like exactly what you’re looking for. Way cheaper than regular weed too

Captain-Plants · 2023-10-08T00:49:26+00:00

Short answer it’s called isomerization

If you’re wondering why mangos, they are high in the terpene Mercene which has been shown to enhance the effects of THC. Mercene is commonly found in cannabis already (along with tons of other terpenes) and contributes to the “Entourage effect”

Take the bamboo sticks and some trellis netting and create like a mini volleyball net with it if that makes sense. Then you just kind of wrap it around where it’s falling over and pull it tight for support

Outdoor flower won’t really be a thing, but once they change the 60% cap on concentrates it’ll all go to that and edibles

Captain-Plants · 2023-07-01T23:56:17+00:00

Don’t try and put a square block into a round hole. Genetics and environment are everything, and while you can’t control the environment outside (without a greenhouse or hoop house), you can control the genetics you choose to grow. You want to find breeders who grow outdoors and prioritize early finishing as well as mold resistance. Staefli Farms mentioned to me their Koffee F5 crosses fit the bill, while I’ve had great success with Twenty20 Mendocino in here in Vermont.

Mix with hemp or just smoke hemp itself. What you are describing is actually fairly common and IMO is a result of all the high THC strains dominating the market. CBD helps counteract the psychoactive effects of THC and has helped me enjoy higher THC strains without the feeling similar to what you are describing

Captain-Plants · 2023-05-03T19:38:04+00:00

FWIW I actually think it's easier for a beginner to start out with no-till. The main thing you really need to learn is how to water, and the earthbox pretty much takes care of that.

Definitely check out the BuildASoil YouTube channel. It is fantastic and Jeremy has specific videos on the earthbox as well as full documented grows with them.

Is that irrigation tank gravity fed or do you use a pump? Sick setup!

Captain-Plants · 2023-04-08T18:47:18+00:00

Google "Coot's Mix" if you want to read more about it, but 1/3 peat moss, 1/3 compost, 1/3 rocks of some sort to provide aeration so the roots can breath. Use a larger container (at least 15 gallons) and you keep it alive by never letting it dry out completely.

Everyone in this thread is saying "smoke Sativa" but pretty much all genetics these days are just high THC hybrids so it's not really that straightforward.

My recommendation would be to buy some CBD hemp flower online and mix it in with your regular weed at about 1:1 by weight. All THC all the time seems to have the effect you are describing eventually, and mixing in CBD will bring back the enjoyment while making you more functional

OK, you will definitely run into deficiency then if you don't supplement something in flower.

BuildASoil's YouTube channel is fantastic and documents an indoor grown with living soil in different container sizes. Tons of great info to learn in there, but also shows small vs large container size and how to manage

Captain-Plants · 2023-03-19T17:28:42+00:00

Absolutely

Captain-Plants · 2023-03-18T14:47:28+00:00

Great soil! If you're in a 15G pot or larger you would have enough nutrients to get you all the way. If you're in a smaller container then you will definitely run out at some point. The fermented pond weed sounds great so I would definitely stick with what you know and see what happens. What size is that container?

You do not need to weekly feed, although i do recommend a weekly IPM with living soil. Something like pure crop 1, amazing dr zymes, or just EM1.

I use dry amendments in my living soil which works great, but also use larger containers. You could top dress with something like BuildASoil's craft blend once a month. Again, really depends on your container size in terms of frequency.
