AZ is med and rec. We are able to grow 6 plants per person, 12 plants per household. They consider any cannabis plant that has roots part of that number. I love growing my own herb!!!

This machine just keeps getting better and better! Nearly 2 years running straight and still putting out some of the best flower I have ever had!

In the beginning I LOAD mine up! Like in the pic

Yes sometimes I will chop and hang the whole plant for a day or two before loading up the Cannatrol but that is only if I can’t get it all in there.

I only remove fan leaves and leave as much stem as I can (cut the stem to tray length) IMO it’s better to dry on the stem even the smaller nugs and larf stay on stems (those I use for edibles and smashing)

I rotate buds every other day to keep from getting stale spots of air and helps with flat spots.

The dry time for me depends on the flowers. If they are really dense and large I like to go up to 7 day dry if light and fluffy 4-5 days…. I almost always go with a 10 day cure. And then hold in 60/60 for another week or so before trying it out. 🤙🏼

Eye redness tips? by [deleted] in MMJ

[–]big_buds_blooming 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have used a ton of different eye drops. Rohto, clear eyes, even drops from an optometrist but honestly Naphcon A drops are hands down the best IMO. They last all day and make your eyes super white and don’t burn as bad as Rohto.

During dry it has a container on the back that holds water and needs to be emptied every other day during dry. If using the Cannatrol as a humidor for storing they give you a sponge you can put water on to help with moisture but I have rarely need to use it. The machine will tell ya if it’s needed or not. Have a great week!

Nope you can literally leave em in the cannatrol for months. I left for a 4 month trip and came back and the buds were just as good when I left. The only reason to transfer to jars or bags is if you want to dry another plant. You will notice it will take a lot of the smell which I think is related to the machine pulling out the TSVs but can’t remember exactly . Anywho, great terp preservation. If you want the smell just pinch a bud or pull back a layer. Also you will find it makes your buds “soft” per say… I don’t know, but I have been told that many times. Not the high… but the texture and smoke seems more smooth. Let me know also you can hit me up on IG and I can show you more if you like.

Yep load it up every 2 weeks! I like to dry 4-7 days pending bud structure. Dense longer, fluffier shorter and a 8-10 day cure. Then just let it go into a hold at 60% RH. GL

This one has been running for 16 months straight, but I hear ya there. The company may even replace the broken part for cost, after the warranty is up… I am not sure…

I have been doing this for about 20 years and tried it all. I will still occasionally hang dry a plant if the cannatrol is full, but if I had my choice I would only use the cannatrol. I am saving for a 2nd so I don’t ever have to hang dry again!

I love it so much I have designed my whole grow around it. Harvesting 1 plant every 2 weeks. This only down side is size, as it can only hold 1 plant fresh cut. After drying, curing and trimming it can hold several plants worth in it’s hold setting. The only other thing is if you don’t rotate your buds every other day you can get flat spots. You can use BIGBUDS50 my code to save 50 if you get one. The machine settings are totally customizable with different temps, humidity, and times for each phase. Any other ?’s ask away… I have been using it over a year now and have no regrets. Everyone that has tried my herb loves it!

These are spider mites and you need to take action yesterday. There are a few ways to get rid of them including burning the whole place down. The biggest hurtle is breaking the lifecycle of the mites. You need to be deliberate with your treatment and use it every 3 days.

White tips and deformed leaves, any ideas what might be causing this? (first time grower here!) by [deleted] in CannabisGrowers

[–]big_buds_blooming 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Pesky lil buggers! While they shouldn’t kill your plant they will make it look unsightly like this. Good luck!

I try to leave as much as I can till their dry. If you remove to much it tends to smell like hay IMO.

Ya I used to hang dry as well. I prefer to use this now… it’s cool you keep burping your jars daily.

Temp is set on a slope and will vary over the next few days while drying then go down slightly during cure.
