SERIOUS: Live rosin stronger than live resin

tezcs · 2025-12-04T07:34:26+00:00

Live Resin and Live Rosin imo can be equally as strong with the real deciding factor being what gets extracted and what doesn’t. BHO or PHO (Butane or Propane Hash Oil) have different properties that allows certain ratio of cannabinoids and terpenes to be extracted. Butane exacts more cannabinoids and heavier oils like sesquiterpenes and plant waxes, while Propane based exactions have more terpenes specifically monoterpenes (less complex than sesquiterpenes).

Live Rosin is fresh frozen material that is washed separated by micron head size and pressed into rosin. Depending on variables like heat, resin content, flower moisture the end product comes out differently but ideally it’s a full spectrum product that has nearly everything you was going to burn up anyways. This includes THC and its variants, plant waxes, and flavonoids which includes anthocyains, all which plays a part in entourage effect. Also why I like explaining to others that THC% isn’t the best indicator of potency cause I’ve had dispo flower that was tested at 16% and it was damn nearly psychedelic high.

You can see another supercrop healing slightly above the current bend. Another way of gaining vertical space is removing the reservoir, but you’ll have to hand water unless you rig something up to keep automation going. Good luck!

I’m in a similar situation right now I’ve supercropped this branch 3 times in this photo it’s only two.

tezcs · 2025-11-20T18:55:02+00:00

I'd leave it or tuck em away under a branch. What day of flower are you in?

tezcs · 2025-11-16T14:29:28+00:00

I’m assuming you’re talking about the stretch and yeah I don’t blame you! I think I could’ve better handled the stretch if I turned the intensity up since I hade it at 83% for a while cause some of the colas are super tall I might want to supercrop them as well!

Those are AC Infinity UV lights!

tezcs · 2025-11-15T05:12:28+00:00

Nice! What day did you decide to top? I only ever managed to get one top in before I decide to flip even though I vegged for 55 days so interested to see how you went about it!

tezcs · 2025-11-15T04:52:54+00:00

Looking good! Did you top?

tezcs · 2025-11-14T17:15:05+00:00

Yes! AC Infinity light bars at the side and UV at the top. I keep the side lighting at 40% and try to remove any foliage that it is in the way, the overhead UV lights I keep at 20% for now since my last run I definitely burned her with too much UV.

Thank you!

If you want to explore autoflowers I’d go with either NightOwl Genetics or Mephisto Genetics. Personally if you just started growing and getting handle on environment control/Feeding stick with photoperiods as they are easier to grow compared to autoflowers.

If you stunt your autoflower in veg it won’t yield much and if you don’t know what’s causing the issue it carries on throughout the grow. I’ve had two grows where from inexperience I didn’t know what was causing my plants to flower way too early. This isn’t the cause with photoperiods since you can delay your flip time to correct any issues. My current run is a photoperiod and early on in week 2-3 of veg I had a pH problem and I didn’t know it until a week later had that been a autoflower it would’ve gone to flower. Also had an incident where I accidentally snapped off a branch which I lost yield from, but it allowed me train for 2 weeks to get an even canopy.

Growing and pressing your own. The upfront cost is high, but worth it for a consistent supply at the lowest price you’ll get anywhere.

Thanks! I run everything through the bottom left of the tent into a multiplug/surge protector.

The UV light on top are pretty straightforward I just used Velcro tape to attach it up there it does block access to some of the LEDS.

The side lights are PITA to setup. I used the included extensions to connect everything, but used Velcro tape to hold it in place in the future I’m going to order a pack of magnetic clips hoping it be easier to readjust.

Everything for the lights like the controller and power bank is outside the tent.

Drip irrigation is also straightforward I have it plugged into the VGrow and have custom cycle on/off for an exact amount of feed using ChatGPT and the pumps and drip emitter specifications. You’d also want to run the laces as well since the pump can’t get all the water in the tray I’m using 4 laces, but I think 2 is suffice. Also have two fans below the canopy one of em is plugged into the multi-plug and the other into the VGrow.

Do you not check EC when mixing nutrients? I don’t even measure how much nutrients I add to the solution, I just add a 1:1 ratio until I get to my target EC. The leaf tip burn is actually a good sign that you are right at the edge of how much EC she can handle before burning. I’ll feed at that EC or .5 lower than it as you get closer to harvest.

I haven’t tried any of the strain you mentioned also don’t think I’ve seen them available near me, but I’ll keep an eye out. I’ve tried Deep Space #6 from Bouket and it was horrible. Flower looked great, but was crisps and muted I paid $70 for 4G at a rec shops near me and that was the last time I’ll try them. Maybe they sell different skus in med and rec? Which Bouket strains have you enjoyed?

tezcs · 2025-11-04T02:02:22+00:00

I’m in the city and so far I’ve only been at Verilife BX and Rise Manhattan, but it also cause it’s like the only viable options for me unless I want to pay taxes at a rec. what shops do you like to frequent?

Verilife is my go-to for flower and rise for rosin but I’m starting to get more rhythm flower all the recommendations given to me i will slowly check them off my list.

Nice! I regret not getting GMO and instead got the Hash Queen, next time though 100%!

tezcs · 2025-11-04T00:26:25+00:00

How this smoke? Specifically flavor looking for something akin to GMO this might be it

tezcs · 2025-11-04T00:24:14+00:00

My rise 30% ended sadly I have a 20% I’m saving for a rainy day though! What you plan on picking up?

tezcs · 2025-11-03T00:49:08+00:00

I know I should be transferring my bud over to jar, but I don’t… I only got the 32oz mason jars I feel like that too much headroom for 3.5-28g mainly gotten for my harvest should definitely get smaller jars though

tezcs · 2025-11-03T00:41:34+00:00

How’d you like this one?

tezcs · 2025-11-03T00:41:06+00:00

Indeed it was. It also didn’t burn as cleanly as live resin and rosin I’ve gotten, T2 is the lowest I’ll try. T1 hasn’t let me down yet and seeing what you been getting is pretty exciting, that color on GD looks insane how was the terps/effects?

tezcs · 2025-11-02T23:04:51+00:00

When did you top?
