And here is number 3 pushing more on the sativa side and definitely the stand out plant for me... Very pretty!

Hey! I believe from our dispatch team that those freebies should be autos either way, it's only a matter of whether it's the one auto or the other

Seed drop in aisle 4....

Happy days. Happy days. Got a free seed! Little confused about it though lol. Seems to be either an Amnesia Haze Auto or an AK77V. So either an auto or not an auto [emoji848] that could produce a small challenge trying to decide how to grow it [emoji23][emoji23] Both strains look mad though, keen either way [emoji1786][emoji1786] Sent from my SM-N960F using Tapatalk

Very nice @Stinger96, do u know what strain they are, virginia or burley? @Totemic is spot on with the conditions they need. When tobacco is cured it can also be slightly roasted, or soaked in Rum, then dried and roasted slightly. First time i just used the dried leaves until somebody gave me some pointers about roasting leaves slightly. Soaked in some Alchohol and its possible to make homemade blunt wraps, trick is to let em dry out a bit but not all the way after soaking.

Leaves are harvested bottom up as they become chlorotic. As in when they go yellow. I dry my leaves in the garage, hanging. After they are dry, they need a curing process just like our favorite flower.

My mate puts a blanket in his tent, wets it down and puts his pots on crates on top of the blanket. He swears by it.

The Mighty 12 are potted

Ain't noting wrong with tap water.

That's what they say.. I do the same... tap water all the way..

Maybe ask @Biltong and Budz bru or just keep giving her 18 hours of light and see if she flowers?

That's interesting.. Will have to research this more..

Number 2 came down a few days ago. These 2 are more Indica leaning... both are curing... 1st BBG indica leaning = 53g 2nd BBG indica leaning = 67g

Nicely pregnant.

Yeah, get them in the ground. Full sun. Very little to no nutrients. Water often, daily or every second day depending. Basically keep soil moist. If you want seeds then let the flowers grow until the seed stalks dry out. But if it's for the leaf, then you need to pluck off the developing flower stalks on the sides and top. Removing flowers will give you massive leaves. Leaving the flowers to develop the leaves are way smaller.

Good day growmies.. I was gifted a tobaco plant and was wondering if any body on here might have grown some and maybe have some pointers for me..

I have a lot of loose seeds from over the few years plus a handful of seeds that I recently purchased off BnB. I am going to germinate all 15 of them and take the 12 best looking ones [or at least the 12 that survive] and pop them into 20L fabric pots with Gold Label 70/30 Coco/Perlite that I just recently discovered. The strains going into the gauntlet are: Zkittlez x Purple Punch - Ripper Seeds x3 Criminal+ - Ripper Seeds x3 Royal Gorilla - Royal Queen Seeds x1 Aurora Indica - Nirvana Seeds x4 Jock Horror - Nirvana Seeds x2 Grand Daddy Purple - Green Smoke Room Seeds x2 Seed drop 2 October 2020 Light cycle flip 17 November 2020 Harvest dates: 1x Criminal +: 14 January 2021 1 x Grand Daddy Purple: 14 January 2021 Everything else: 17-18 January 2021 Flowering times will not be a concern as I have a spare tent that will be used just as a drying tent. I also don't plan on cloning anything yet. When I am done with this bunch I want to decide on a regular seed strain, find a mother and really dedicate to that strain for a while, whatever it may be. So far we got some live ones popping up, the first 12 at least.. I'll update again when I've chosen and potted the Mighty 12.

Hello all my name is Madgiant I'm going to be journaling my first grow. I'd love to have community input and share my growing experience. I've ordered 5 autoflower seeds from @Biltong and Budz and will be germinating 4, I'm using FF 10L pots with FF Premium soil. Planning on feeding bio fish during veg and bloom during flower. Genetics I'm planning on growing: Gelato - Fastbuds Flowering Time: 56 Days Wild Dwarf- Bulk Seeds Bank Harvest: 70 Days (This one is for fun) OG Kush- Victory Seeds Flowering Time: 70-77 Days Stardawg-Fastbuds Flowering Time: 70-77 Days Looking forward to share my journey!

That's awesome!!!, someone's gonna be rolling blunts soon

This is going to be epic...

Great to hear good news... and not Canna bits....

Great news. Have a feeling traffic to that site just went up a little lol. Keen for my first purchase. What a kiff store!

Yo, so I recently started my first indoor grow. I never had humidity problems when I was testing on bag seeds but since I started my first proper indoor grow(exact same setup as the test) my humidity had been between 35 and 40. What can I do to increase humidity without buying a Humidifier?

Awesome! Have visited their store many times and have never been dissapointed.

I have been experiencing the opposite issue. If the grow space is fairly small you can try putting a wet small towel in the grow space, that helped me increase humidity on a previous grow. I am sure some other members will have more sophisticated methods of achieving this [emoji14] Sent from my SM-N950F using Tapatalk

Funnily enough I've recently switched to tap water. (I leave the bottle open for 24hrs, apparently it helps evaporate excess chlorine, then again, maybe it does nothing)

Thanks man! waiting another 2 weeks at least till the smoke test lol... but I have fun during the burping

Looking super healthy..

Day 44

Hey Bud's, hope you all had a good weekend. Bit on the lazy side here but any update on the ACDC 50w plus spot lights. Anyone have current prices as I'm looking at setting up a dedicated area in the garage for veg. Area will be open as such but mouse proofed ish'ish, no poison. Resident owls have preference on the reservation. Saying that, so does the mole tearing up my small lawn patch. Sent from my DRA-LX5 using Tapatalk

Galato is doing awesome, it has 3 spots on the leaves but other growth is looking healthy, other plants looking banger too added 60W worth of smb LED 6000k Sent from my SM-G950F using Tapatalk

Watching with keen interest.

Those are two 75W 6500K CFLs about 10cm away (just far enough so my hand doesn't feel any heat) Sent from my SM-G950F using Tapatalk

4/5 have sprouted and I've got seedlings Gelato is on Day 4 and is our forerunner! I'm still waiting on Kalis Mistery. Sent from my SM-G950F using Tapatalk

Day 28

Thanks for the comment bro! Sent from my SM-G950F using Tapatalk

Haha so I'm guessing 75% fish poop & 25% molassas haha! Seems right Sent from my SM-G950F using Tapatalk

Thanks for the chart and support man! Do appreciate it! Sent from my SM-G950F using Tapatalk

Unfortunately I got the update that it is out of stock however I did get a nice Gelato in it's place. Thanks for the comment man! Sent from my SM-G950F using Tapatalk

Heya! Only the sun for now, I ordered a Cheap PH meter and if think I've got a PPM meter laying around is that the same thing as EC meter? Thank you for the comment! Sent from my SM-G950F using Tapatalk

Yes! Got it backwards

Fish mix during veg. Pre you bring Grow in.. but best is to swap grow and fish with each feeding further on. If you get yellow tips, stick to grow. Grow is 75% Fish Mix and 25% molasses.

isn't it fishmix in veg and grow + bloom during flower? I've heard that grow is just fishmix and molasses so could just mix his own.

Welcome ☺, I'm especially interested in how the cream cookies auto will turn out. All the best on your grow.

What's uuuuuup!! What light are you using? Or are you growing outdoors for now? Do you have any meters to measure pH and EC? Those sound like some yummy genetics man! Best of luck and ask all the questions you need bro

Welcome to the fam @madgiant enjoy the grow

Welcome to the family bro and good luck on your upcoming grow.
