    Using Feminised plants for further breeding?

    IMO, and as Chuck has stated, there can be great advantages to using feminized seed stock for breeding. Of course first and foremost, IMO, would be to use only true breeding plants to begin with. How much worry is put into finding true breeding traits of male plants? Hmmm.... But take two...

    What is your preplanting process for seeds that have been stored in the refrigerator?

    I don't think any extended time is needed to bring the seed out of stasis. It will start to do that as quickly as the ambient temp changes. To me seeds always seem a bit more viable right out of the fridge than room temp seeds.Maybe see a faster germ with ones right out of the fridge than ones...

    whats in your freezer

    I think the term "seed whore" has been a bit shuffled from the original term of "seed hoard", which is a much more appropriate term. The way I see it, having a diverse seed portfolio is not whoring, or "hoarding" at all. Only those who try to corner the buy, and purchase all available packs...

    Phenotype variation in female seeds

    Charles, I would love to hear your take on the S1. That being a plant that pollinates itself or it's clones, rather than other siblings of the group. I am a genetic biology numbskull, and I am curious about how a "genetic dead end" can come about in the selfing.

    anyone heard of these strains???

    They are legit! They come from the PT Barnum school of super selections. Step right up!

    Phenotype variation in female seeds

    IMO, it is easier to select from a group of females for all traits, than it is to try to discern the traits of the male. I don't think folks do much of a selection when it comes to males, other than they have one and it looks good, so it gets used. If using a group of females, on the other...

    Ducting (pressure drop) = smaller CF? Question!

    I am not giving you style, just facts. Airflow dynamics are carved in stone, and there is no style involved. You needed both of our info to have something to work with.

    Ducting (pressure drop) = smaller CF? Question!

    A 5" intake duct has an open surface area of 19.63 square inches. If the exhaust duct opening is a 5" hole, then the intake needs to be 10% larger than the exit hole, to provide the sufficient amount of air. SO, if you cut a 6" hole, instead of a 5" for intake, you will then have 28.27 square...

    Power inverters for blackouts?

    I would suggest trying a UPS. Size it for your system, and realize that it will only keep the lights on for about 1/2 hour. The battery and inverter will work (basically what a proper UPS is) but it will get drawn down right fast with that inverter. Unless you have a bank of proper deep cell...

    Ducting (pressure drop) = smaller CF? Question!

    I agree with fabman 100%. Almost a perfect match, actually. With a 5" exhaust duct size, you would want about 10% larger opening at intake to have sufficient air to satisfy the system. However, with the filtering material, you will have restricted that flow somewhat, and there is really no...

    Air Conditioning in Sealed Room

    The part of the AC in the grow is self-sufficient and only recirculates the air in the grow. There must be a separate intake for the air supply to cool the coils in the back, and a separate exhaust for the hot air off the coils. Unless the AC has the back of it sitting outside,then nothing else...

    Hydrogen Peroxide Vs Beneficial Microbes

    h2o2 will increase the oxygen content 100 times what an air stone could possibly. The free radical oxygen molecule that is released by h202 does indeed attack bacteria, but it attacks ANAEROBIC bacterium, which is what we want to be attacked and killed. The oxygen actually feeds and...

    Chimera & Cannacopia Seeds @THC auctions

    I've been wanting DC, as well as wanting C99...the C99xDC is the answer I think! Anything either of these touches seems to turn out golden. This was one of my best snags. Fantastic value. Thanks to all involved. Lots of righteous happenin here at the farm.

    the mission....build a "grow box"

    Right away you have a pretty lofty goal for box growing. Especially if you can't afford a tent. There are going to be expenses to putting together a box that will yield a lb a month. And if you are going to do the thing commercially, a box aint gonna cut it anywho. If you had slightly less...

    Magic Mollasses

    To get the real benefits of molasses, you must use blackstrap type. All the other types have different types of sugars and very few nutes. Although many claim to see an improvement in taste, the best thing about molasses is that it's a chelating agent, and helps nutrient uptake considerably...

    has anyone grown....

    The Pure is going to give you a chance at the skunky pheno. Not many of the other dutch skunks will. The Pure should have both sweet and skunk phenos. Sure, there are better strains around...much better. But for breeding, Skunk#1 is one of the best a person can find. And The Pure is probably...

    Zoo's clone question

    Zoo, I am a bit less worried about sterility than most, and I tend to not worry about the cleanliness of things too much. Although, I have to say you should continue with the cleaning of the razor blade, especially new ones, as they often will have very slight coats of a lubricating substance on...
