I love the high of Chemdog so damn much, but that straight chemical terp profile tastes like smoking pcp at times.

Republicans are traitors to democracy

Yup, I prefer more stoney weed with higher levels of amber trichomes, like 25% amber and 75% cloudy. Some people say that amber is a sign of THC degrading into CBN, but I don't fully agree. The trichomes are like fruit and the clear, cloudy, and amber stages are the steps of ripening. Clear heads offer a more cerebral high, cloudy is thought to be when you reach near peak THC thresholds, and amber is when you are either at peak or on the other side of it and beginning the slide down the degrading part of the ripening curve. There is anywhere from a 3-14 day window where each strain has it's own optimal harvest time, but the parameters of that window are also dependent on each person's individual chemistry.

My wife got a microscope You can tell by the trichomes that these aren’t ready yet with little to no amber in sight. The trichs are more stalky than I’d like, but they do have a week and half to two weeks to mature and get bigger heads.

Yup, and they just increased the limit so you can get up to 8 ounces a month. I highly recommend Alt Sol as a medical brand and Capital City Care and Takoma Wellness for medical dispensaries. CCC often has the best deals and most places offer 20% off for first time buyers.

She is definitely magic and she loved what you wrote! I’ll try and record her some time, but I’ll have to do it when she doesn’t know she’s being recorded she says. She’s sharp as hell though and I’m not much for sneaking right now with my hobbly ass. You ever thought of getting a medical card? My wife and I both have one and DC has great dispensaries that accept out of state patients.

Thanks, I appreciate it! I’m lucky to have my wife as a partner in the grow. She sings to them every night and does the watering that I can’t do right now with my handicap. I wish your husband could have had a chance to grow these. I cherish the opportunity because I learn and grow so much as a person by taking care of these plants.

Got some close up shots that look kind of cool

Tress Way is hilarious. Crazy to hear that Heinecke orchestrated that 10 minute drive while needing to pee the whole time.

@mistertim nice, I’ve heard really good things about mephisto and those strains sound pretty cool. Those NL’s might get more fragrant later on into flower. One of my favorite parts of growing is watching how the flowers and smells grow and change over time. My girls are doing great and have 2 more weeks to go, although nana glue is really showing her fall fade and might be ready earlier. My royal Limez is still my favorite with her strawberry jam gas smell becoming a deeper and stronger gas that smells like diesel fuel and rose oil. Her morphology is amazing as well.

Its still early and your ladies are doing great so far and look super healthy. I’m looking forward to seeing how they end up. What do they smell like?

Thats a dude plant my dude. It’s amazing how much frost this nana glue has put on these past 2 weeks. Even the fan leaves are showing some.

Thanks and yea these are photos and I meant 5-1/2 weeks of flower. I’ll be harvesting around week 9-10 depending on when the trichomes ripen to how I want. I’m doing all organic and I mixed my own soil at first with the recipe I posted a couple pages back. However, I’ve got bad nerve damage and mixing my batches was making my seizures worse so I bought some build a soil organic mix for when I up-potted to 5 gallons and top-dressed in week 4. For that same reason I’m using a couple of things from the nectar of the gods line as a substitute for teas. They are nearly 100% organic with a couple products having very small trace amounts of a calcium based salt. However, just a caution, I don’t use their Bloom Khaos because I worry about the trace amounts of arsenic in the potash per their msds report. Flowering has been a breeze with hardly any issues at all. We’ve just been watering once a week till now, but that’s changing as they kick into gear and chunk up.

A close up shot of nana glue at 5-1/2 weeks. Pretty cool to see her leaves turning purple already.

Anyone else feel like this country is ****ed as a functional democracy after 2024? The wife and I are making plans to leave the country if the Republicans win the presidency again. The first tweet below doesn’t even factor in the rising authoritarianism of the GOP.

You can definitely use a scrog for autos if they are the kind that will stretch during growth. The trouble is knowing when they will all do so and how much stretch will occur. I didn’t put my trellis in until week 2 of flower and my main reason for doing so was to weave nana glues branches under the trellis to widen her canopy and slow her down from growing too close to the light. Depending on how the rest of the girls continue to stretch I’ll be lowering the trellis further so I can get the added benefit of the trellis supporting the thinner branches so they don’t fall over when they get heavy with big chunky buds.

Yea, she’s been super easy to grow so far. I haven’t grown out pure Zkittlez but she definitely has added something nice to both of the crosses I’m working here and those have both been sexually stable, PM resistant, and vigorous. My nana glue has been stupid vigorous but one of the lower branches showed some intersex traits. That could be from the bbc side of things though. It’s not too big of a deal of you catch it, but it’s something to watch out for. I’ve got some skywalker crosses I’ve heard great things about. I’ll be growing those out next year so I’ll be interested to see how you like those if you give them a run.

Thanks! The first two pics are of Lemon Zkittlez (Lemon Party x Zkittlez) and it smells like bright lemon and yellow starburst. The third pic is Royal Limez (Zkittlez/Black Lime Reserve x Royal Kush) and actually smells like strawberry jam and gasoline. The 4th and 5th pics are Nana Glue (GG4 x Banana Butter Cups) and has a dank and subtle chocolate aroma. The 6th and 7th pics are MendoPurple 3.5 (Mendo Purple x Purple Urkle) and it’s got a candy grape aroma. If you look close you can see the beginning of purple bud starting to grow in the flower. The other two pics are shots of Lemon and Mendo. My two favorite so far are the Royal Limez and Lemon Zkittlez.

I saw a strain on IG today test out at 41% thc. It’s called Han Solo Burger (GMO x Lemon Larry OG). Here are some pics of my girls at Day 27 of flower. Still got 6 more weeks to go, so still plenty of time to chunk up and get even frostier.

What a useless fear mongering study, it doesn’t actually have to do with marijuana causing any breakthrough cases, that higher risk “is largely due to their higher prevalence of comorbidities and adverse socioeconomic determinants of health”.

Do you wake up and snort lines of negativity or do you just put the straw straight into the bag?

Regulating potency by thc % is so ignorant. More often than not the best and most heavy hitting strains are in the low 20’s and it’s the entourage effect of everything blending together with personal chemistry that gets you stuck. Plus, thc % varies from cola to cola on the same damn plant, let alone from one phenotype to the next of the same strain. Anyways, my girls are finally starting their first day of flower. It’s a freaking jungle in the grow tent right now. My nana glue is already 3 feet tall and if it doubles in height these first two weeks she’s gonna end up pressing against the light. All my plants were already showing their terp characteristics in Veg so it’s gonna get super fragrant soon and my nana glue is going to be extremely resinous. When I do a stem rub on her my fingers stick together and come out smelling like gassy chocolate and dank chlorophyll.

I’m switching from my citrus rainmaker and watermelon starburst to my OG #18. I gotta pre-sedate my nerves so I’m chill before the game starts. But, if **** gets out of hand by the half I’m breaking out the Petro-Chem and blasting off into my couch and a bowl of nachos.

One thing I think about for perspective and humility is how long and how much energy it took for earth to form and generate atmosphere and life in growing thresholds of complexity. “Around 4.53 Billion years ago and around 40 million years after the solar system formed, a large body collided with the proto-Earth, causing the formation of the Moon and vaporizing magma on both bodies. After the collision, Earth cooled rapidly. Two million years later, it had an atmosphere of rock vapor and water vapor. Forty million to 600 million years after the solar system formed, Earth had water and a crust, and was ready for life. We know this because geologists have found rocks that are 4.3 billion years old and include minerals that required abundant water to form.” Life is patient as **** and way more hard working than humans can fathom. For all the collective ****iness we currently show, if we fail as a species our physical elements will reconstitute over untold years and try again. Our elements are billions of years old and have taken on so many shapes. Once you can feel your core that goes beyond identity and story and is just pure life there is a small bit of solace in the prospect of bridging the unknown divide and forming enough of a threshold in life complexity to once again experience a similar level of consciousness. Ive faced death quite a few times from guns in my face to car wrecks to drugs to prison and I’ve been crippled and wished for death many times because of torturous pain. I don’t plan on dying any time soon and I still have a physical fear of the actual moment, but I feel good as hell about everything after because of all the spiritual experiences I’ve had and keep having. After going through my fears of the abyss and finding an unending love on the other side that actually accepts me all the way down to my soul, I feel so deeply at peace with my devotion to infinitely pushing life and love forward across an ever changing landscape of consciousness.
