Definitely a good idea, especially for larger pots. Organic mixes can get heavy! What a cool idea to recycle the bin of the vacuum

A wheeled pot?

There really isn't an "easiest" method, or medium to growing. Everybody has to find what works for them. Coco/perlite (soiless) is pretty straight forward, but you are going to need a ph and ec pen for fertilizing. Same applies to hydro. Organic promix might be your best start if you don't want the added expense. Although even these need amendment of sorts. You will still need some lekker organic nutrients to feed. Full on living organics is even simpler. All you do is mix your soil, and then wait. 2 months minimum, but the longer you leave it to age the "sweeter" the soil becomes. This can also be a relatively expensive route, but there is little that beats a bud grown in a good living soil. For a quick solution, have a look what the various online stores have available. Jamiesgardenshop.co.za is a place to visit. He has an organic living soil named Orgasoilux. Hope this helps.

I germinate my seeds by soaking them for 24 hours in plain tap water that has stood for 24h or so. I only soak the seeds for 24hrs. Anymore and you actually risk drowning the embryo. From there they get planted straight into their medium at a depth of at least 10mm. After 2-4 days those that have germinated will surface.

Love the venting. This should become our "I can vent shit here" thread.

Hectic. I couldn't imagine myself not getting stuck into that scissor hash, and never mind a month into curing... :-hilarious

If your friend harvested at full amber, that is already an indication of a Sativa. Many of the landrace sativa's have that overpowering citrus phenotype. Will be interesting to see how it unfolds.

I would prepare for a long flower. That looks terribly Sativa to me.

Yes, this is a Sensi Jack. And she really is amazing. Sadly, this specific grow I had to close done, but Jack is something I always have not too far away.

those large bark particles are only messing with your medium pH, and they are a nice home to start harboring root pests. I would remove them.

Thanks 420. This year I am running with Comfrey tea/concentrates on my grows. A year ago I decided to plant some comfrey in an area of my garden, and they are now at a point where I harvest fresh leaves as necessary. I will post up more detail on this wonderful fertilizer in a new thread. These were planted a year ago, and below is what I planted this year.

Any pics?

I have sampled bud from this cross over the last 2 years working with the line. The buds are rock hard and dense, smothered in crystals. The overall terpene profile I've been selecting for is blueberry dominant and is apparent with all females. This is a very relaxing strain, and great to end off a hard day's work with. Harvesting a bit later brings overwhelming relaxation, and will plant you to a couch, but not knock you out. A Bud from the last grow.

She'll be 4 weeks from seed in soil tomorrow. Still no confirmation it's a female although she looks and smells female. Very few of the males with this cross smell so terribly of blueberry. This grow will finish outdoors.

Mad Scientist ( Male ) is from Breeders Choice. Sannie is the breeder, and it's lineage is White Widow x Herijuana. Jackberry F4 ( Female ) also one of Sannies creations, and is a cross of Blueberry Indica F1 x Sannies Jack

What a mission it has been to get myself going this year. But never the less, here is the start of this log. So, i popped some beans New Years day, and lost 9 to birds. I have this Robin that keeps coming back to breed in my garden every year, and their chicks are worse than an adult chicken I tell you. I have dropped another 12 seeds, and they are starting to break the surface now. Here is the sole survivor of round 1. Will post pics of the seedlings in a day or 2.

Seriously though...If you follow the money, and by that I mean have a look at the USD in it's entirety. It is collapsing, and it is the East that is choking it. Everywhere where the US currently have military looks to me like a Military General is positioning battalions in such a way that resembles WW2 tactics. ( Just looking at geographical spread. ) The US are really not the world super power any more. China holds the economy, with India close behind. As far as believing all the conspiracies...Where there is smoke there has to be a fire. Obviously a lot has been completely ripped out of perspective to create media sensation, but I'm sure that in all those conspiracies there is some form of truth being put out there.

Those, and I personally think NASA never went to the moon!

Ahh.... Flat Earth vs. Round Earth. There is no real proof in my mind that either one is more plausible than the other.

If you don't know anyone that can supply you clones, your best bet would be planting seeds, and taking clones yourself from there.

That all depends on how long you veg. I count veg from a seedlings 2 week mark. 5 weeks veg with some training will already yield more in most cases than an auto. So you are at 49 days, add 8 weeks of flower and you are at 105 days. Clones you can definitely hit the 90 day mark.

You could grow out any 7-8 week Indica strain with 4-6 weeks of veg, and the rest flower.

Auto's are great, but they are also not. IMO you really need to hit a flawless grow from the moment you germinate the seed. Auto's will flower after x amount of days regardless of light cycle, and if you only manage to get your seedling 10cm tall because you stunted it, you could very well only harvest a couple of grams if that. I'm personally not interested in this genetic trait, and actually breed away from that marker as far as possible.

My thoughts? As one of the site sponsors, I prefer to stay out of the competitions to give the other members a chance. This forum is still young, and has almost 300 members, but why are so many so quiet? I think a better question to ask is; What do the site users want out of the site? What would you like to see more of? What would engage you enough to join our conversation? A forum is its users, and I would like to engage with more like minded people. You don't even have to be growing to take part. So, lets assume for a moment that there are no limits to what can be placed on here; What would you like to see on the forum?
