just to let you all know......BB is way to fucking hard on himself...his not so perfect would be good enuf for 99% of the world.....i've seen his grows up close and personal since he's been legal and he does some magic......his runs of old were spectacular and his new ones are just as great.....hes had some major issues with root diseases, powdery mildew, etc etc...and has bounced back with a vengance every time....while times are trying....he always manages to put out the best i've ever seen and smoked.......he is truly one of the modest growers out there and in my opinion is one of the new age masters.........watching his progress as a grower is what inspires me to keep going.....which hopefully i can start up again real soon......cheers bud........and i know your gonna give me shit for this...lol.....but still ......you are great at what you do.....
Your far too kind my good man, and I will agree I'm hard on myself, but trust me, not up to par, gonna be nice smoke, but the plants are rather rough looking. Not the lav, but that was selective pic posting, lol. My 91 are really deficient, and they arent going to go as long as I wanted, but I have to admit, everything is finishing about a week earlier than usual, I'm kinda shocked by that, i think the titan is really good for speeding that up a bit.
Yeah BB, do think you are a bit hard on yourself for how stellar them ladies look!! Feel ya on the chem is a chem thing. Rolled by the store today and completed the Roots lineup and will give it a go since its already got some sources for mg and Ca added in the bloom formula. They also offered a nice humic acid additive. Only thing was the low N in veg, but I figure I can add some worm castings, and as you said add some dolomite if needed for the
ca/mg if needed as i got some sitting around from the super soil.
Appreciate all your help bro, I'll be a reggie around here peeping how things are goin. Keep it easy bro....
Nice, I've heard really good things about that line lately, I'd love to see someone with your skill have a run with it. My store buddy is checking it out to see if theres any available up here in the frozen north, well, its more flooded here now than frozen, but still. Do you have access to a high N guano? I use a veg guano instead of flower guano going into 12/12, having plants this big is very demanding on N supply as you can imagine, might be a really nice way to take care of that for cheap.
second that. really some special herb he produces....
Thanks man, this next run is gonna be special if it kills me to make it that way, i can promise you that.
That's exactly what I need... Some pungent dank even after the cure. Big Buddy, I was wondering what your curing process is and if you found certain strains to lose their dank odor after the process begins... :wondering
I've noticed a few that do lose the smell, but the quality of the run is the big things for smell. I've learned that just the slightest fuck up, especially during the finishing stages is the biggest issue. The better the run, I find the less the smell drops off. That being said, I've had a couple that never really went anywhere with a cure, spacequeen from sub was like that, tasted the same the day it was dry as it did after 2 months in the jar. now i love the jtr, so not ragging on him, that strain just wasnt my bag.
As for what I do to cure exactly, i let my plants dry to just the point where the stems snap, I dont like to dry my plants to the point where its actually smokable dry(that doesnt mean wont burn, I mean if you roll a bud that would normally give you like 3 js, and you get 1 puggy bitch j). I get them in the jars then, and after about 12-24 hours I open the jars for about3-4 hours to let the moisture come off the top. That first bit of time in the jar really brings out the moisture pretty fast, and you want to get that off. Then as dk mentioned, about an hour a day for a couple weeks, but it depends how dry it is, if its feeling quite dry, I'll leave the jars closed, or maybe just pop them open for some fresh air and seal em again. i dont like to smoke my herb til at least a month in the jar, though it happens of course, damn well gonna happen this time. If at the end of about 2-3 weeks, your buds break up nice and fluffy, not powerderised but still good and dry, stems snappin at all. They'll snap when yuo first put them in jars, but bend a little first if you time it right, well, the way i time it.
got dang BIG, that lavender never stops to impress me. just beautiful dizzank. cheers.
oh yeah and I am all game for this curing conversation taking place.
Thanks bro, shes the love of my life thats for sure, its killing me waiting for that batch to finish.
Wow,,, awe struck right about now!!
Haha, appreciate it man, I'll try and keep it looking good next time, lol.
