    Cure in molasses residue?

    Was thinking of it as an experiment rather than a trick but in that case, I'd only be fooling myself and I don't mind a bit.

    Cure in molasses residue?

    I bought dried molasses for my grow; they arrived in mylar-lined packages. I'm putting my just harvested/dried bubblegum in the empty package to cure. As the curing process, as I understand, converts bad tasting chlorophyll and starches into sugars. The empty package still smells of...

    Blue lighting during last 3-7 days of flower?

    I'll try the blue spinnaker veil on the two bubble gums in later flower. Photo 1: Is closeup of purple calyx on #1 plant( Hmmmm; just read my notes: I had pollinated the lower buds only , I thought, with Pinkleberry on July 1 which might explain purple calyx? The originator of this strain...

    Effect of shade color on outdoor grown cannabis

    I was just curious. Especially about using red shade to affect the color shift as one does by turning on red lights to indoor grow for the flowering period.

    Effect of shade color on outdoor grown cannabis

    I need shade when I tend to them; I'm a California pantywaist! Was also wondering if intense sunlight would negatively affect trichomes as in cooking the resins.

    Effect of shade color on outdoor grown cannabis

    I am going to use an old blue nylon spinnaker as a shade cloth for my plants. Does anyone know if the color blue filtering through the sail have any effect on flower development. I understand that the season moves to Fall, the light color shifts to more red which is a signal to the plant to...

    Dead branch on otherwise healthy plant

    I seemed to have stopped what I have assumed was fusarium wilt (roots were red on plant I partially pulled up and put back in soil) with water and peppermint essential oil. This also worked when I was trying a kratky grow. Many essential oils can stop fungus: Antifungal activities of selected...

    Discard old weed into super-soil pile or worm bin?

    Hi I gave it to the worms who really seem to be enjoying it: they are much more "active" in that there seems to be quite a few more lately than usual. And, their festive recycling will go into next years batch of recycled soil. Thought about homeless donation: a paper bag w/papers, matches, &...

    Discard old weed into super-soil pile or worm bin?

    As one does as a grower, I've accumulated several years' worth of unsmoked weed (there are worse problems I know.) .I am wondering if throwing it all directly in my super-soil pile is a good idea or better to dump it all in the worm bin. I've never come up with a useful topical and I don't...
