Aww pitty, the Bruce Banner is a very nice plant with great yields and very high potency! Regardless I feel it got the point across.

Regarding autoflowers, they will flower based on time - where the "normal" seeds / plants, more correctly called "Photoperiod" will only start to flower when they are exposed to a reduced duration of light. Indoors most people will veg their plants under 18 hours of light and 6 hours of darkness. Then when they want to flower their plants they will change to 12 hours of light and 12 hours of darkness to force the plants to flower, without the reduction to 12 hours of darkness the plants will not flower. However with autoflower plants, this is different. The plant will start to flower automatically by itself based on a its age. So for example an autoflower plant will start flowering after 3 - 6 weeks of veg normally. If you are growing photoperiods outdoors, you need to wait for the seasons to change and for the duration of light to decrease before the plants will start to flower.

Local regular seeds, reach out to @greenkush his GDP and Bruce Banner are top notch. I have just finished growing out both of those, I posted pics of them in my diary over here: Otherwise I am not a particularly big fan of local seeds, like the fire stuff from overseas and find myself growing more American breeders genetics now. The seeds Greenkush had their parents originate from overseas. Regarding the hortimix, please elaborate on why you don't feel its good for flower? Their bloom booster is MPK which works pretty well and is comparable to products such as Ripen for the most part. I have heard the Flora series isn't that great and lacks a bit and needs to be supplemented with a few things. I suspect their bloom to be very similar to the Hortimix MPK. I personally have not tried Flora series though so am not speaking from experience, just the experience of others which I have heard of. I assume you dose your nutes according to PPM or EC?

https://www.darkhorsegenetics.com Just one breeder I know of who have really good regular seeds... Although I think Worlds Strongest Strains also does regulars, I'd look into their stuff too. Otherwise you can always reverse a female with STS to get pollen from her and then breed and create feminized seeds. Regarding nutrients, BioBizz isn't terribly priced for organic, otherwise Hortimix is cheap.

So the Tropicana weighed in at 52g dry. Also some pics of the Bruce Banner #3 buds, as you can see even the smaller buds have some nice colour on them. Excuse the shitty pics, poor lighting in the room. I put them into jars tonight with Boveda packs, will wait for the RH to stabilize before I weigh them. Still waiting for the GSC to mature so I can harvest. The Chocolope is still part of the grow, albeit I have a dedicated thread for that and seems as if it will take the longest to mature.

Where you based? Unlikely you will damage it more just from opening it.

In my experience that is not really needed, as long as you use high quality carlton towel it should be fine - I only had it happen to me once when I was using lower quality towel and when I left the seed in for too long, but then I did cut around the paper towel and plant it with the seed. I use the Woolworths paper towel as it is bleach free and has a good strength and thickness to it, I have yet to have any taproot getting through the towel. I also use tweezers (angled ones actually) when removing the seed and taproot from the paper towel, makes life much easier.

If it has a warranty then see if you can't get it swapped out, but chances are you won't have a light for a few days. If no warranty, then you'll need to investigate yourself most likely. Sent from my Redmi Note 7 Pro using Tapatalk

You'd need to see how it's built. It could be that the board is divided into sections and each section has its own power supply, like the Nova led lights. Could be quite a few things though. Sent from my Redmi Note 7 Pro using Tapatalk

Why not just add a passive air intake? Like an air filter, my tent came with one and now that it is summer it makes a HUGE difference! Temps are more consistent and cooler, humidity is better controlled and the negative pressure is still there but not as bad.

If you do a grow for seeds, please drop me a PM once the seeds have been harvested

Where did you get her from or the seeds from? Sent from my Redmi Note 7 Pro using Tapatalk

That Swazi looks very sativa like. How is the potency and resin production? Got some close ups of the bud? Are you flushing her currently, thr leaves look a bit light in colour. Those strawberries look great, I need to try grow some strawberries again. Will pop them indoors in my veg area I think Sent from my Redmi Note 7 Pro using Tapatalk

Welcome! I guess the best way is to try it out and see how it works for you. The benefits will vary from person to person and strain to strain. I have recently harvested a high CBD strain with a lower THC ratio and am curious to see how well it works for pain relief. I have another CBD strain with almost no THC and an even higher CBD percentage - really curious to see how it i .

Very nice! Where about are you based and what is your game plan? Perhaps we can give further advice.

Sounds like you need to start your own grow. A Sent from my Redmi Note 7 Pro using Tapatalk

Well I'm going to be giving synthetic nutes a go now to see how it compares. Although I've got my living organic soil which I'm still using for now. I'm not worried about being 100% organic right now. I'm more curious as to how much wiggle room everyone feels is acceptable before a grow should no longer be classified as organic?

Yeah, grows the same. You wouldn't be able to tell the difference except the resin is dialed down a bit, more like my Chocolope and GSC and less like the other plants I grew. Frosty but not next level. I want to start growing some higher 30% strains, so how that is. Anesia tested their Future #1 at 37% and@greenkush has seeds on the way so hopeei can get a clone or two :D Inzane in the Membrane is 30 - 35% THC Grow out some of the hard hitters if I can call it that, some of the most potent out there.

If you look at the trichomes, there was not much Amber. It's a cbd plant so I would have liked at least 20 - 30% Amber. It was closer to 5% give or take. The Bruce Banner can reach upto 30% THC apparently, its certainly very frosty so I wouldn't put it past the strain. Its BB #3 in terms of pheno. Sent from my Redmi Note 7 Pro using Tapatalk

So just some pics of the Bruce Banner while it's drying. Excuse the poor quality pics. Cannot wait for it to be dried and cured! The GDP looks very similar. Sent from my Redmi Note 7 Pro using Tapatalk

So this is something I have been wondering about for a while, at which point does a grow stop being classified as "organic"? I think we can all agree that if growing in some living organic soil and watering with organic nutes, you are growing organically - right? Now a lot of people use chemicals as part of their grow in various ways, at which point is it no longer classified as being organic? When you start using PH up / PH down in your nute mixes? When you start using CalMag? Perhaps when you use a bloom booster which is not organic - majority are not from what I have noticed. What about if you use coco / perlite instead of soil? What if you are growing in organic, living soil but feed with synthetic / powder nutes? Perhaps you use a product like florakleen to help flush? Perhaps you use a combination of organic nutes and synthetic / powder nutes? Share your opinion at where you would draw the line.

So I did another STS spray tonight on the Charlottes Angel. I just weighed my dry bud from the Daq Lime and it comes in at 78g dry in total, not bad considering how small the plant was and that it was seeded too. Busy curing with a 58% Boveda pack now.

I believe I see one of your problems... I got some cuttings in culterra soil and even with my regular feeding they were looking SUPER pale. Transplanted them into some Organics Matter soil and within 2 / 3 days they were already far darker! I purchased a bag of the cultera soil and gave it away, did not like it at all. As long as it is not an autoflower, there is still hope. I would recommend using a different soil, perhaps this little guy is more sensitive than the others.

My larger plants in flowering, I give them 3L and they are in 20L fabric pots. They take it like a champ without any runoff. With the hot weather I need to water them again in 2 or 3 days. I give nutes with every feed, has been organic nutes though. You do not want to let your soil dry out too much, if you do let them dry up a lot you will notice the leaves of the plant looking very very sad and droopy.

Shit man, a fucking double whammy! Best to lay low for a while. Although if they stole your shit, easy for them to have stolen it from somewhere else I guess for all anyone knows. Hope all goes well. I assume you'll get your TVs back at least. Sent from my Redmi Note 7 Pro using Tapatalk
