I have some recommendations for inline fans and filters for smaller/hobby sized tents if you want AKA.  I'm really blown away by how the price has come down on quality grow equipment.



Thanks China!  :datass:

Good, I hope you stay that way!  That hunger and drive is the best!

The wedding cakes I have grown out all tend to lean OG, but I want to run an OG cut inside at some point.

Right now I'd be happy to get my hands on some ATF or AK.  Those two are sativa leaning hybrids that just do it for me.

I never use Fox Farms anything if I can help it.  I had five bags of happy frog in a row that were 10% thumbnail sized gravel and ph'd between 5.0-4.3, all plants placed in the soil died.  Fox farms denied that it could be their soil when I contacted them, dead end there.

So fuck em.  I use roots soil now and it's much better.  Their Lush Mix is incredible, but it's super rich.  I wouldn't put a young auto in it.

But I'd sure as fuck mix a few bags of it with some worm poo, lava rock, sea compost, dolomite, oyster shell, azomite, alfalfa, eb stone organic mix, Rainbow mix bloom, and some DTE Fish Mix. 

Sprinkle some crumbled up mosquito dunks to pre-empt gnats.

Pour it all in a 65 gallon smart pot, plunk in a MOB, and away we go!

I've found spent monotub coir makes an excellent base for a soil mix.

I used it as the base due to all the coir in it.  It worked great after composting and adding perlite and amendments. 

Isn't it lovely when an experiment (or just fucking around) works out?

Maybe I got lucky?

I've since seen other members do the same thing and get good results, yesterday I saw a post that was an entire raised bed of spent monotub coir.

I should mention I composted it for about eight months before use, really gave it time to break down.  I think that was when i was still using vermiculite in my tubs as well, so that was in there.

yah i didnt do that and it attracted bugs. lots of bugs:uhoh:





Praise satan, the fungas gnats came for me too.  At the time I was living in a PNW rain forest and fungus gnats were basically our town bird.  I set the tubs of soil mix outside for a few months in the winter to kill off the gnats and mixed BT into the soil mix.  Then I brought them inside before it got warm again.  Seemed to do the trick.

I had to tape up the edges and any gaps on my monotubs with micropore tape just to keep the little fuckers out.


In current news the MOB I transplanted from the three gallon to the 65 gallon didn't even skip a beat, just kept right on growing.  I love a well timed transplant :cool:

I just use rooting gel and jam them in some jiffy mix or a puck.  Works like a charm.

Yuuup.  If I were running something larger than my 2x2 fuck-around-and-find-out tent I would absolutely be picking y'alls brain about a misting cloner, but right now just chucking some pucks in a yogurt container with a couple of holes in the lid works a treat.

So, I had a weird and questionable experience at Archive in Portland.  They are the "breeders" of a lot of the clones going around Oregon right now (more like pollen chucking and selecting clones, but I digress).  I asked if the blueberry clone they had was DJ Short lineage, and they said no... but that it was a pre-98 blueberry.  Pre-98 is a reference to when DJ Short changed the genetic makeup of the blueberry parents in 1998, so in order for it to be pre-98 it has to be a DJ short cut.  So which is it?  That really made me hesitate buying from them, and ultimately I just walked out with a few pre-rolls instead of a clone or two.

I'm going to sound old, but there's nothing but pollen chuckers anymore.  If all you're putting out is F1 crosses that have not been stabilized, you're a large scale pollen chucker and not a breeder.  I miss a lot of the old true breeding strains that seem to be disappearing.  None of this modern noise can match up to a good S.S. AK cut, or some ATF.

This is all a big roundabout ramble that is me trying to avoid dropping $100 on five-ten seeds like in the old days :lol:  I feel like I could make a killing producing clones of the classics for sale in dispensaries.

There are a list of ways to help them learn more towards female. I forget what, but I know who sent it so I'll get a list of things and post it.





I'm sorry hobbit, this is false.  Plant sex is predetermined by chromosomes.  That seed is male, female, or intersex before it pops.  Conditions can influence if an intersex trait pops out from a plant that was otherwise expressing female, but that is because the plant was already intersex.  A genetically pure female will only produce male flowers when influenced by humans with chemicals, and because that plant was female the only chromosomes produced are X chromosomes.  This is how people can reliably make female seed.  If environment influenced sex then this process would not be necessary.

that is correct, those plants are intersex.  Hermi pollen will produce more hermis, which includes y chromosomes.

A pure bred female plant will not throw nanners outside of chemical intervention.  When they are forced to produce "male" flowers through chemical intervention they will only produce X chromosomes and the offspring (seed) will be female.

While we're at it, the vast majority of strains out there are not strains.  Strains are true breeding and have been stabilized over generations by breeders selecting for traits.  Most of what is out there now is just pure pollen chucking, and most clones are from F1 crosses made for shits and giggles, or from accident.

The real blue dream is just a clone from one original plant, for example.  It was not bred to be blue dream, it was a one in a million lucky shot from a cross that someone made intentionally or by accident.  So blue dream is just an individual plant and not a strain.

Super silver haze, and DJ shorts blueberry are true breeding strains that blue dream was supposedly the offspring of.

I found something interesting:

https://www.marijuanapassion.com/threads/fight-off-bugs-and-disease-with-aspirin.41583/

hxxp://www.plantea.com/plant-aspirin.htm

I use up to ten aspirin a gallon an mature plants with no ill effect




I looked up the original site (plantea) and it's highly sus.  The whole site is geared around pushing her tiny compost tea packets, it's an elaborate advertisement.

She compares the human immune system to plants and says that's why aspirin should be used.  Considering the fact aspirin does nothing for the immune system, it's a bogus analogy from go.  She also said it's just like boosting the immune system with echinacea, which has also proven to be false.  So which is it Mrs. Product pusher, is it an immune booster or a fever reducing pain reliever?  She can't tell the difference.

Know what I use with no ill effect that's widely available?  Neem oil.  If aspirin worked everyone would be using that instead of standard pesticides, it's much cheaper after all.

Sorry if this comes off as raw, but I really really hate hippies that think whatever they say is a fact.  They're the main reason we're having so many people resisting immunization, spreading their disinfo around so we now have measles and whooping cough all over the US again, nevermind covid.

It's hard to say OM.  I also grew out a gorgeous wedding cake from a bag seed last year that turned female.  I cannot say if the pop was a sneaky male or an intersex plant.

Last year there were no males around my plants and I still had the occasional seed show up.  From those seeds that I grew out I got females and males, but no stress tested plants to see if it throws a nanner.

Nanners are just the term we use to descibe a male (staminate) cannabis flower, the ones that produce pollen.  A "female" flower (pistillate) are the ones we grow the plant for and are the ones that receive pollen from a male (staminate) flower.

An intersex plant will throw pollen from a male flower that contains chromosome sets for male, female, and intersex plants, but that intersex is always in the background somewhere waiting to spring.  The offspring can do anything.

A true breeding male and female will produce true breeding male and female offspring.

So a true breeding female plant will not produce nanners under stress.  When we spray them with colloidal silver or gibberellic acid it manipulates the plants on a hormonal level to produce male flowers.  The pollen from those forced male flowers will only contain the chromosomes present in that true female, XX.  There are no Y chromosomes hidden anywhere in the pollen.

Does that make sense?

Before this F1 is a real strain craze we found ourselves in, a lot of breeders used to stress test their strains until they found parents that didn't herm under stress.  The quality was better because everything ran on reputation and not legalized corporate bullshit that's produced as rapidly as possible.

Legalization ruined everything about the cannabis trade, but I still voted for it because I'm tired of seeing black kids go to prison for 20 years for a fucking joint.  Literally holding people hostage to legalize a plant who's proceeds go directly to the crooked cops.

We had to sue in Oregon to get them to start using cannabis proceeds for the schools like they claimed they were going to, the state was hoarding the money/giving it to cops.

Not naturally.  It can be done using chemical agents.

A hermaphrodite plant is not a feminized plant.  Hermie pollen and pollen from a chemically forced female plant are not the same thing.
