Flipped to flower on 20/07.

Glueberry O.G trimmed last night, I call this one, "a nug in the hand"

Don't all the boere go to Australia?? I think it reminds them of the Karoo, go visit your new friends in Australia and then you still hear Karen say, "Pappa hoe lyk daai choppies" Sent from my G3312 using Tapatalk

A fool and their money are soon parted.

I have changed my tune slightly... Good for them... Doing what they want and Winning... I wouldn't be surprised if the haze club turns into a dispensery after legalization, depending on the ruling... This could be a great way to build revenue to open up a quality dispensery.. I still do not agree with what they Are doing.. But good for them and for the peeps who have that kind of money for their meds

So I trimmed the 3 plants in front, defoliated and cleaned them up quite a bit. Another Bruce Banner plant started showing it sex (the one to the left in the picture), it was a female and a bit larger so I did some LST again as I had left it to do it's own thing for a bit and then swapped it out in my tent. The smaller (to the right in the picture) Bruce Banner will be going to another forum member as he has the space to grow it out, unlike me. I also noticed that the smaller Bruce Banner wasn't too happy with the previous feed, nutes were a bit too strong so I will ease up on the nutes for the next feed and then after that I will probably do a flush before flipping to flower. I much prefer the Plant Matter fabric pots (lighter colour) over the Grow Guru fabric pots (black). Their sizing is a bit more convenient, not as wide but a bit taller.

Day 43 Sorry for the lack of update, I have since moved 6 of the plants to the tent for flowering, I culled 3 male plants and have 3 more plants which I am waiting for their sex to show. I also did an inoculation of some trichoderma, some BioInsek (fungus which works as a pesticide) and such. I also upped the feeding to 4ml/L and plants seem to have handled it pretty well and at this stage am looking at flipping over to flower within the next 2 weeks or so. The pictures were taken yesterday, I will try take some more pics tonight and add them as well. So far all is going well! The training has really helped keep my plants short, so space is currently not an issue at all.

Hahahaha! Fuck, this one got me again!

That just happened.

Yeah, the info is a bit outdated. Black Dog LED released the first "3W" designs in 2010. Then moved on to "5W" LEDs around 2015. These days, QBs and COBs are made with 0.5W and 1W chips typically. Horticultural LEDs from Phillips, Cree, Osram, etc. are typically 3V and run at 350mA, for about 1W output., with 58%+ radiant efficiency. You can still get decent PAR with 3W/5W chips, but it's mostly because of the lenses. Pretty much only the Chinese still manufacture the 700mA and 900mA "3W" and "5W" chips, using Epiled/Epistar/Bridgelux dies, which max out around 25-30% radiant efficiency.

Gorgeous!

Morning, my 2c's We live in one of the most beautifull countries in the world and our cost of living is still cheaper than most. We have no hurricanes, no earthquakes, no volcanos, no tsunamis. If you want to go, you go. But as was mentioned above, if you decide to go, do your homework. Doing it to ''get away'' is for the wrong reasons, you should be ''going towards'' to better or improve your life. But on the other side of the coin, how can you judge ''how bad'' it is? Have you even been anywhere else to be able to make an informed comparison? You will be pleasantly surprised. Yes, there are problems in RSA....most other countries have similar problems and some are actually worse. Before you jump the fence, go have a look first.

Woah... I wanna respond... But it's too early I agree with you though... It's a go to saying for a lot of white folk... Eg. "this robots been out for 2 weeks, honestly this country is going to the dogs. As soon as I can I'm fucking off to New Zealand" Go for it boi

Evening 420SA, Slight update on our outdoor. Flowering ladies doing their thing despite the season chill. Enjoying their tea and it shows. Starting to put on a little weight - in a good way...hahaha[emoji3] Greenthumbsalltheway. Sent from my SM-G900F using Tapatalk

Btw, for those looking to avoid my missteps, from what I can gather online, this is what a plant looks like when you overwater and overheat a younger plant. A sort of blistered leaf appearance. They also feel a little plasticky.

Short story behind this strain. So, sadly, my girlfriends sister passed away in a car accident 2 years ago.. Very sad.. But in her possessions were 2 seeds labeled "BB", and since she was into her high quality weed, I decided to grow out the seeds, and call them Ayla Blueberry... I grew her indoor at first and was not entirely impressed... 12 week flowering time and very leggy... Chucked the last clone outdoor, and she grew... Fast... Beautiful...bountiful... Wow of a plant Delicious smell, buds made of candy.. Tons of buds... Went so dark purple she was almost black!! To top it off... The keif I collected from her, when crushed alil, smelled of blueberries.. I was so stoked!! So here goes her offspring... I have a few seeds that I am soaking in water, and will move to jiffies tonight Wish me luck!! Sorry about the non sequenced pics!!

Those plants look amazing, and training rules for keeping a low, flat canopy some of them tend to be reluctant to show their gender.

Amazing first grow will be following

I personally wouldn't use CFL's for more than clones / seedlings. CFL's are very inefficient for the power they consume. Even then I'd rather look at those LED tubes you get at Makro and other shops - something like this for clones / seedlings: https://lumenpower.co.za/2ft-st8v-0-6m-8w-830-warm-white-230v-em-552677.html?cat=49877 I'd look at either LED's or HID, I prefer LED's so that would be my first choice.

Joints and pipes I prefer joints but the pipe is quick and easy. I have a RooR bong and a volcano digital but only use these on special occasions I make Coconut infused oil but give most of it away

I've been feeding with every watering, using BioBizz. I am not trying go for a "super soil" where I do not need to feed at all. So whether it is superior in that sense I cannot say.

I do not feel you need at least 300W of LED lighting for a decent grow, also keep in mind that you generally do not run LED's at their max capacity. Also you do not need lenses, it does not always point to a higher quality product. It is also not uncommon to see passively cooled LED lights, generally going for an active cooling setup is cheaper as heatsinks can be costly and fans are cheap. My 2c

By the time you get your bud its ready to be blazed. The first grow takes the longest because of germination etc.. every grow thereafter will takes 8 weeks because germination would start before your first batch is cured and shipped. So expect to pay for at least 3 months. You also may cancel your membership immediately after receiving your first batch, if you so desire, with no penalty to you, this was one of my questions. Your bud gets shipped to your address of choice

I wonder if it's linked to Green Thumb Hydro or not, common name so very likely it's not. Now the wait starts, sounds as if they dry and trim the bud for you too? So how long do you expect to wait until you receive your first harvest and do they ship it to you or do you collect it?

@YourStonedBuddy I got some Freedom Farms soil and some Organics Matter and I personally prefer the Organics Matter soil over the Freedom Farms. The plants seem a bit happier and when I messed up the plants in the OM soil didn't seem to be affected as greatly. So I ended up purchasing quite a lot more of the Organics Matter soil. I still feed nutes though , BioBizz. One thing I did notice was the difference in colour between the FF & OM soil and the fact that the OM soil seemed to have a bit more perlite in it.

Green Thumb is the botanist THC uses for the growing. I'll post updates about the grow as and when I receive them.. I am quite excited

Where does "The Green Thumb" come from? Curious to see how your experience is @NoStringsOnMe please keep us posted!

I'm actually halfway through week 5 already so yeah stoked, I'll be spraying 2L of that probably on Sunday morning at like 2AM[emoji1787] Sent from my G3312 using Tapatalk

Nice dude! Yea I also found a few spots... Mostly because they were hidden below the canopy surface... So I took all remaining PM leaves off in a mini defoliation

Currently looking at either Canada, Holland and the UK - UK being the easiest as I can get an ancestral visa. Reason? Because I don't like this country, never have. Apart from the useless government, crime, just general failing economy, the grass will most definitely be greener on the other side, even if its just one shade.

Bit of stretch... But not falling over yet Mind the salt crusted res lid

Unlikely there would be subscribers on this forum as most members here would plan on growing themselves - the people who do not want to or cannot grow themselves will be more the target audience for The Haze Club.

It is not just white folks that are immigrating. It is all your highly educated people. It is the easiest for them to go. Both my brothers are gone. My sister is also looking into it. I'm sticking around not going anywhere. I have always been the black sheep. Sent from my VTR-L09 using Tapatalk

I get what you're saying, I think most people think along the lines of that if the shit hits the fan you already need to have an "escape plan" or already be elsewhere. Majority of people do not have the luxury to literally pack up and move overseas overnight, immigration is a long process. You also get people who just complain and say they want to do something and move, although they never follow through or bother to look into it. A lot of people are not able to immigrate even if they wanted to, soo.

Did my first nutrient feed last week, toned it down since then by half. 0.5ml Micro / 1ml Bloom per 1.875L (half gallon)

Looking good, I'd have liked to see pics of the over watered plants too. May help some newer growers identify what that may look like

This is the start we have been waiting for. Social clubs will pop up next and they will need growers. Sent from my VTR-L09 using Tapatalk

Schindlers as well as The Haze Club both use the premise of privacy to argue the case of personal, private use of cannabis, Schindlers within the Constitutional Court, and The Haze Club within the capitalist environment. If you do not need a license to grow for yourself at home, then you don't need a license to pay someone to grow "your" weed. Also, because of how a lease agreement works in South Africa, when you lease a space, you are in all legal respects the owner of that space for the duration of that lease agreement. This is probably why they limit the number of plants to two, most likely on the advise of Schindlers, which could hint towards what we can expect for the legislation to state when it is eventually passed.

Life ain't fair homie. Haha. I don't think they will have any legal issues. If those attorneys are backing them, then they're sorted. Obviously they don't have an address due to safety reasons. If thieves find out the address they can go and rob who knows how many grams of weed and/ or plants. They probably also don't want every Tom, Dick and Harry showing up there.

Thanks to everyone who has a view on this venture - some interesting questions. I'm indirectly involved in the business, but probably the wrong person to answer detailed technical questions. We have a botanist (Greenthumb) who is responsible for the growing ops, so I will ask him to provide the info. Fundamentally though, The Haze Club was set up as a service to grow for people who either can't or don't want to grow their own. IF you have the knowledge, interest and time to do it yourself, this would be the way to go (why pay anyone else to do what you can do yourself?). But most people don't.

Now we're talking!! Let's watch them grow

Holla guys! So I am finally off the mark with this run, Ayla Blueberry #1 has sprouted and is out of the jiffy, just waiting for number 2 now

Bruce Banner?

After 5 pages of reading QB vs COB I still know nothing more about differences and which ones I should go for

This is my first cannabis grow but I have been growing organic vegetables commercially for a while now. Based on my first impression I definitively prefer the OM soil. It’s more of a SOIL than FF, there’s actually a bit of structure to the soil straight out of the bag, which is rare in bagged soils. I plan on going full tilt no-till and I think the OM soil will make an excellent base for that. Also busy cooking Greenleaf Organics’ supersoil, which I would probably use predominantly, but I think the OM soil is very similar to what that will be.

Light setup

bro, i stopped reading your ramblings when you started with your insults and your laughable and condescending buntu education line, im just here for entertainment value. this isn't a commercial forum, even if there were commercial growers here they sure as fuck wouldn't tell you, so your claims to fame mean jack.
