Beautiful training, how often do you find you end up adjusting the twist ties?

@Smelly Joe It really is that simple, decarb, make butter and do some baking (pun intended).

There are manufacturers who stock these boards and local suppliers who stock boards with 660nm and 730nm. Really upto you whether you want to go this route or not. Plain 301b diodes work great too without any additional diodes. Sent from my Redmi Note 7 Pro using Tapatalk

Where the link at? Boris Brejcha has some awesome stuff!

So you're hoping to the kill larvae in the soil with the nematodes and let the adults die off naturally, to avoid spraying and killing the thrips via a spray as you're in flower? Sent from my Redmi Note 7 Pro using Tapatalk

They're growing nicely! I feel training is certainly needed on a lot of the in house strains as they get very stretchy. Yield will be affected negatively I feel without proper training to try keep the canopy flatish. Sent from my Redmi Note 7 Pro using Tapatalk

Guidelines for now, ultimately a judge would be the one to decide if it ends up in court. If you are within the guidelines, chances are it would just be thrown out (I'd imagine, could be wrong). Realistically, not everyone has space to grow or the knowledge. There should not be anything wrong with you growing as you're able to and have the space to do so, then being able to share with friends and family and enjoy some yourself. Imagine your gran trying to grow some cannabis for herself, not something every granny is going to be able to do.

Unfortunately with capitalism, pay to play is often part of the game. In House Genetics are not ridiculously expensive when compared to some other breeders out there. I suppose I have gotten use to it, the fact we split packs helps in terms of price. A lot easier to split a pack and cough up a portion of the price than to pay the full pay as a single grower. I have also said this before, just because you are paying a lot for a pack of seeds does not mean you're going to get some strain or pheno. Not all of the In House Genetics stuff is amazeballs. The nice thing is that their packs are easily available locally, unlike some other breeders who I want to try where the local stock is super limited and often the lesser known strains are what is available or not available locally at all.

@EastRandGrower Welcome and enjoy your stay! Make sure you are visiting via the webpage and not Tapatalk, then goto your name at the top right, click the down arrow, click on Account Settings and then select Signature.

Buy them some Nandos so we can get our way! We're not unreasonable. We just don't want such restrictions. We're not trying to harm anybody.

The right people need to be able to profit from it safely and conveniently... Us as the home growers are not the right people as far as the government is concerned. @The Grass Baas The limitation is still a limitation and can be very limiting depending on what exactly you want to achieve with your grows. As you stated, 8 flower plants = 16 veg plants. This is a combination, so someone keeping say 4 mothers (not a lot of variety, is it?) is then left with 6 flower plants or 12 veg plants... combination of both. This is if there are 2 adults living together, so if you're single and living alone... well fuck, even worse for you. Now you cannot share your harvests with friends and family as much due to the limit imposed. If someone wants to do some proper breeding locally, good luck doing so easily while abiding by these limitations. The frustrating part is that other substances do not have these limitations, the common ones being alcohol and cigarettes. Why can we not follow the guidelines of cigarettes? I fully understand not smoking infront of children and not giving any tobacco or cannabis to children (unless for proper, approved medical use and then it would typically be in an edible / oil form and they'd not be smoking it). Currently is there a limit to people brewing their own beers or growing tobacco plants themselves? As far as I am aware, no. The bigger issue is why is there a limit in the first place.

It wouldn't be completely sterile, at least I do not think so. It is outdoors and bacteria can live in an array of different conditions. @Smelly Joe What says you?

Not sure how much space you have, but there is a 2nd hand 2.4 x 2.4 Budbox tent up for sale in the classified at a really good price.

@donnob So you decided on a tent yet? Have you received it?

I have seen hollow stems before, but I think I typically cut once they have filled in... I dunno.

@Smelly Joe Are you not worried some other bacteria or fungus might get in that starch solution and contaminate it? I assume the BB and GSC are the original ones grown out previously?

@Naughty.Psychonaut I do not have a rosin press, yet at least. So never pressed them. Popped seeds as @greenkush said, busy narrowing down the phenos though. In House Genetics put out some serious Not the cheapest seeds, but really worth it provided you get a good strain from them (not all of their stuff is the same). Their morphology is quite low in comparison and unlike a lot of other breeders, you typically do not need to go through multiple packs to get a great pheno... Or perhaps we're just extremely lucky. I don't think we can be this lucky though considering how many packs we bought and seeds we've popped.

This is just going to boost the red a bit. It would be more beneficial if you were to get additional 660 + 730 diodes. This would boost red and photosynthesis.

UV from LED is a waste for cannabis (for now at least). IR is often classified as 730nm and not 760nm+ The 660nm + 730nm leads to the Emerson effect Not needed. Can be nice to have if you want though.

A friend got one, although the power supply packed up within a year of use and good luck getting it swapped out. Otherwise his is good - but it is just a plain Meiju board, no UV or IR on his.

Looks soo different compared to the other Tortoni's... I feel there is some strong Chocolope coming through in this pheno. Not a lot of Slurricane and I do not know the Gelato #33. Stacking very nicely though!

So I took down some plants this weekend, didn't take pictures before unfortunately. Was quite unhappy with the Black Cherry Pie and then time was not on my side so focused on getting the job done as opposed to taking pictures (sticky fingers and a phone is also not pleasant). I took down the following: Black Cherry Pie Remo Chemo Slurrijug Jelly Breath Bananium A lot of strains look quite shitty when compared to the Slurricane & Bananium. I will take pics of the bud once its dried and trimmed. Yield on the Black Cherry Pie appears to be quite poor. Keeping in mind, I got the Black Cherry Pie and Remo Chemo from a friend in small plastic pots and kept them as such - I can without a doubt see that something was up compared to my other plants in their 20L fabric pots. The root system on the plants from my friend seemed under developed in comparison Last night I managed to take some pics of some plants which should be ready to be cut in the next few weeks. They're looking good, at least I think so! After the BCP and Remo Chemo, I was a bit demotivated and seeing this brought a smile to my face Frosted Apricots Platinum Punch - dare I say, looking pretty good when compared to the Sugarcane? I have 2 more phenos of this strain to grow out and compare as well. Certainly a keeper - just need to see which phenos is the chicken dinner. The way it packs on the frost reminds me of the Bananium though. Last but not least, Sugarcane...
