All is well and good bruvs. All seedlings are above ground Ive moved them into the tent under a 250w MH. Soil seedlings were watered Monday night and the hydro seedlings get a low dosage feed today Sent from my SM-G950F using Tapatalk

Looking happy and healthy Hochy

So if I'm understanding you right you're saying that in theory, if you were to extract every single cannabinoid from the entire plant, including the stem, leaves and roots you would end up with 50% THC and 50% CBD? But say for instance we're just extracting from the resin(trichomes), the ratio would differ, more towards the ratio of what the breeder suggests the strain contains? Gotta admit this is an odd revelation to me. Can you point me to a write up on this?

Educate me so you're saying every strain of cannabis contains equal amounts of THC and CBD?

Here's a pic of that cap that comes with the prize

Indeed buddy. Entries close next Thursday the 26th

Where'd you guys get the tents from?

They are quite flimsy yes but the major issue I have with mine is the overall quality. First it seems they measured things wrong on this one cos the corners of the tent would sit so tight around the frame corners that the majority of the corners tore. In hindsight I should've asked for a replacement... Luckily my wife has sewn them up though. The zips have also been a fuckup with most breaking and the main zip came off which means I have to Macgyver every time I zip up the tent. Zips may have failed cos of the unnecessary extra tension though. My 80x80 tent which seems to come from the exact same factory has none of those issues so I think its a factory fuckup... Im sure the PVC will do a good deal to make the tent more sturdy. I haven't put my tents roof to a proper test though with cooled hoods etc but I can imagine what it may be like.

It's tough to say here... how long has it been flowering for? Judging just by the hairs isn't a good measure anymore, it's best to check out the trichs. To do so you need a portable microscope

Howzit guys It’s been bloody ages since my last grow so I couldn't be happier to finally be going again! I’m gonna be doing a mixed medium run this time i.e both organic and hydro. Doing a side by side comparison so that should be rather interesting. I'm still a noob when it comes to organic growing, this being my 2nd proper attempt at it, but I learn't a lot the last time round so hopefully I can work off that. Here are the specifics of the grow: Organic For older plants I'll be using my own living soil mix. This is my 2nd grow with this recipe. A lot of my amendments were sourced from Organics Matter. Highly recommend them. For seedlings, clones and young plants I'll be using my basic seedling mix. Feeding regime Once again I plan to opt for as little bottled nute as possible. Coconut water - worked wonders for me last time. Kelp tea Compost Tea Fulvic & Humic If I run into issues I'll be getting some Biobizz Hydro Medium: Coco/Perlite 60/40 Nutrients: Nutriplex Trio Supplements: Gthydro Calmag, Hortishop Silica. The Genetics Thanks to the incredible efficiency of our local post office I have been waiting for a seed order from the UK since the end of May. According to tracking, it's been sitting at our customs since the 30th of June. I can't get an update from them either as I've sat waiting 40 minutes on the phone for an operator, twice, with no luck. My impatience couldn't hold any longer so I went ahead and made some local orders. Currently I'll be running: 3 x Purple Orange CBD seeds by Dinafem - to make high CBD oil (will be referred to as P.O in this thread) 1 x Blue Kush by Dinafem ( will be referred to as B.K in this thread) 1 x Amherst Sour Diesel by Humboldt Seed Organisation (will be referred to as A.S.D in this thread) Once the other seeds arrive(hopefully), I'll be getting those going. The Environment Veg 150x150cm tent for 1st round of veg. 80x80cm tent thereafter Flower 150x150cm tent Current Situation All seeds successfully germinated in under 48 hours. The Purple Orange seeds all germinated in just a shade over 24 hours. 2 Purple Orange seeds went into the organic seedling mix. The other purple orange, the Blue Kush and the Sour Diesel went into a coco/perlite mix. I will be cloning later on, placing into the different mediums, so that the accurate comparisons can be made. The pots are currently in a cabinet under a LED for the germination stage, these will go in the tent soon so I can expose them to some air movement as soon as possible. They'll be starting under a 250w MH. Below is a shot of the pots this morning. As you can see the two P.O organic seedlings are starting to emerge. Those seeds were placed in their medium quite a while before the others as the seeds germinated sooner. I'll try keep this thread updated by the week, or as often as possible. Have a good weekend! P.O Organic Seedlings Emerging

Plants looking good Pat! Especially dem short ladies How much longer you gotta flower those girls for?

They definitely help to keep the temps down but don't offer as much spread as bird wings or cooled hoods. Cooled hoods are the better option but are more pricey

Welcome thanks for joining!

Thanks Hochy Quite a few people have said now that they are legit and that they send the product in the original breeders packaging. I'm not really after Dinafem but it seems they have a decent CBD range and with our limited range of trusted seedbanks, they seem like the way to go

Morning all I'm gonna get growing again after a VERY long time and I'm looking to add a high CBD medical strain to my crop. I'm currently waiting on an order from Attitude which was ordered at the end of May so I'm left with resorting to our local seed banks to at least get going. With a high CBD strain in mind I've been looking at www.cannabisseeds.co.za as they do have a few CBD strains... I don't hear much being said about this seed bank so can anyone vouch for them?

Nice King. Where did you get that sticky trap from? I've basically accepted the fact that they aren't found in this country...

Pat999[/member] I'm doing a bit of housework on the forum here... you mind if I move this thread under the Grow Diaries board?

Awesome Longee[/member]. Share some pics of your flies if you want What species do you fish for? Recently got myself a float tube. A couple pre-rolled joints and a float tube... heaven

Hey guys sorry for the delay! Didn't have a chance to get to my pc last night but the winner has been decided.............. The winner is Hochymama[/member] :-clap Here's the winning pic Congrats buddy!

Poll has closed. Winner to be announced this evening

Bongfucius[/member] I sorted that out for you. The reason that happened is because you copied the image link when you should have copied the direct link. Another way is to just copy the BBcode as that you can just paste straight into the editor and you're sorted, but will only show up once you've posted.
