For just over a month from seed that's pretty darn impressive!

@thegreenfarm let us know about your setup, how you grow, strains etc.

Thanks for joining @thegreenfarm

This thread has been cleaned up. Drifted light years away from the point of this topic. @Apollo Flux and @growopz you guys can settle your differences elsewhere. If you want to punt/promote or try to make light that your products are better than anyone else's you can do that through the advertising channels just like others have to. Otherwise let the members here decipher for themselves and report back to the forum. Education is good but when you drag your products into your arguments you can consider those posts removed. Don't even waste your time

I brought in about 8 ladybugs into my tent just over a month ago to control a spider mite issue I've been battling for a while now. Thought it was a complete fail seeing as I havent seen them since. Was surprised to see this little guy/girl pop up last night

Really disappointing. Have you tried to phone them?

Welcome to 420SA @Bospatrollie2

@Gnome benzene is carcinogenic and properly toxic. Unless you're 100% sure that your purging process leaves not a single trace of residual solvent, using benzene is seriously risky. As far as I'm aware it's almost impossible to get rid of all residual solvents using basic purging methods. Especially for people starting out, its best to stick with food grade ethanol as its safe for consumption. Not denatured, food grade. It's more expensive than the other solvents but we're trying make meds here so there shouldn't be a compromise IMO...

Are these male preflowers? Im not 100% sure

Hot temps can lead to airy bud, prolonged maturity, reduced yield and in some cases burn (mostly due to lights) A common feature of my plants is upward cupping of the leaves which is the first sign of heat stress The edges will turn upwards as too much transpiration occurs. The leaves also tend to get crispier and more brittle Definitely something you wanna avoid. Keeping the roots at a more stable temp by watering more often can help the situation a bit but yea... only a bit

I also suffer the same issue. It's my nemesis with growing in the lowveld and its one I can't fight in the summer. Like you, I can't afford to run an AC. In Nov,Dec,Jan my flower tent was hitting temps of 38 consistently. Some nights 40 because the ambient temp outside was around 32! All we can do is wait for winter. I used to hate winter... not anymore lol. If ventilation is sorted, the only way to reduce heat is an AC

It does, lets hope she is awesome. Was a freebie I also have a Rare Dankness Scotts OG regular and a Rare Dankness Starkiller reg on the go. Pretty sure the preflowers on the Starkiller are showing male though Scotts still to be confirmed. Had some real shit luck with the Scotts OG. Bought 3 regular Scott's OG seeds and only 1 of the 3 germed. That doesn't help things when you're buying regular seeds...

Have been testing Organics Matter's newly released living soil on this HSO Amherst Sour Diesel. She was transplanted into the soil just before flower. I'm genuinely impressed with this soil. Have not used a single drop of bottled nute on her. Gave her one watering with coconut water. Otherwise humic, fulvic and EM. She's 7 weeks through flower now Gonna be testing a few other strains in the same mix as well. Including a Royal Queen Seeds Chocolate Haze and a Delicious seeds Sugar Black Rose. Will keep you guys updated!

Nope. Global has no limit. Is it the same -200 error?

@Justin Hemp with Jeremy Acton from the Dagga Party

Good points on making more effort to preserve our landraces. It's a mammoth task but if we want cannabis tourism to be a big thing here we definitely need to make an effort. @Totemic perhaps a bucket list project

Nice man. Fastbuds hit the scene very hard here. Seems like they're living up to the name!

@Master_G so sorry I missed your post. This issue was addressed Tuesday night. Please could you have a go again

Gotta say the autos are definitely becoming a lot more impressive these days. A good growers helps too of course Are these Fastbuds?

@Growfo of unknown origin? Is it bagseed or a clone been doing the rounds? Looks like a great pheno
