Hi all, it's been a while since I've been here since I'm unfortunately not growing this year, but my sativa that I jarred in December is smoking just fine. It has been since early April since I checked on it and it's in a warm environment, been over 100F here this month, so I opened it up...

Just my elementary opinion, but if it was my plant, and it's already in Miracle Gro soil, I would let it get established before putting anymore nutrients on it. I suppose the stuff to reduce transplant shock is okay, that's something I've never done. Being that you are growing a weed, too...

That's fine. I started my plants in May last year when it was 85-90F and over the summer it was 90-105F every day. They did great and I had a really good harvest.

The problem with that is somebody else knows where your plants are. No matter how much you trust them it is a huge loose end. People accidentally tell their wife or gf or cousin or other trusted best friend. One gets mad at the other or gets drunk and blabs... if you know what I'm getting at.

Bag it until you can bend a big bud to the point where you can hear the stem crack inside of it. That varies depending on moisture in the bud and in the ambient air. Sometimes days, sometimes weeks. If the stem will crack, it's dry enough for long-term storage in mason jars or whatever you...

false, I got in trouble last Saturday night, so I'm cured... for now. TPBM ate a pizza tonight.

I don't have any scales so I have no idea what the dried weight is. But I filled 11 wide-mouth quart mason jars. 8 jars are full of long buds (had to cut them to length to fit) and 3 jars brimming full of small buds. And a gallon ziplock bag of rich shake to make ISO hash with; probably...

I have opened them a few times to check. Last Tuesday, the 20th, I opened them and the buds in every jar feel very dry. I think they are okay to stay sealed for the long run now. I expect to be using this weed for more than a year, but I'm thinking there's really no reason to ever open them...

You will have to hang them to dry before you put them into brown bags. There are some great stickies you should read before harvesting. When they are hanging and begin to feel crispy, there is a lot more moisture in them than you realize. It's easy to move too fast on the drying and curing...

:yeahthat: Ditto that! All except the "going without" part.

I planted mine May 25th and harvested December 2nd, and that was early. It started flowering the second week of September. The trichomes were mostly cloudy with barely a few amber. I finally got tired of hauling it in out of the cold and heavy rain. Paranoia was working on me too. But I'm...

Yeah, I get mine from my back yard.:D Ever since we started talking about this, I've worried about my recently cured weed. I opened a couple of jars today to give it a sniff. It's dry enough though, smelled good.

Fat Freddie's cat's biggest mistake ever was to pee on FF's record player while it was plugged in. :>

Considering it's your life, why not tell him you think you smoked some moldy weed? I can't think of any reason to short change him on diagnostic information. Different molds grow on different plants. Antibiotics aren't usually effective for molds/fungi. They may treat it with something like...

Leaf, I like your avie. I haven't seen a picture of Freewheelin' Franklin since the mid '70s... my college days. Those Fabulous Furry Freak Brothers!

So, how are ya feeling, Weed?

I agree, brown bagging them until they are dry gives you a much better cure than going straight to jars. Besides it's a pain to have to open them up every day to keep them drying. Pull off the leaves before you bag them because you will cause more damage manicuring dry buds. They should be...

The pistils turn color differently on many strains, so like the others said, don't go by that. It's putting all of its energy into flowering, not vegging. If your trichomes are clear, I would wait. If they're mostly cloudy, then you can decide starting now what type of high you want. But if...

A smoldering ember is not as hot as an open flame, plus a lot of material is carried away with the smoke that hasn't even gotten that hot. Spores are tough and will survive and enter your lungs, where it is a nice warm wet habitat for mold. I nearly died with a post surgical abdominal fungal...

I grew AK48 in a pot outdoors last summer, 2007. A friend gave me a couple of clones and told me it was basically the same as AK47, but from another dealer. I planted it April 1'st, too early for my region in the Southeastern US. It flowered too soon and I got a potent mini harvest in June...
