Hey Sting Sorry to hear about the infestation, any idea what type of bug it was? Really glad to see the setup up and running. Did you manage to bring the Temps down further?

Help! Newbie preparing for Spring grow - advice required
zairek replied to PapaSpliff's topic in Starting Your Own Grow
Avoid a black bucket or paint it white, black plastic gets incredibly hot. Plant growth will be stunted. I personally will go fabric, but with twice the capacity of a bucket >40l. -
High dank Inspired by the cobbing community, a few strains with high acclaim: Panama x Honduras Golden tiger (malawi x Thai) Carnival Mulanje Kilimanjaro Zamaldelica

Entries closed 21 June. Would have entered but am in the midst of a grow. Hopefully future cups are announced at least 9 months before closing date...

Lesotho Heights cob after 11 days of fermenting at around 40C. Opened the vac vag twice to air dry the cob. Now it's been dehusked, dried for 24h and revac sealed to be reopened in a few weeks or months. Smoked a gram or so mixed with some dry flower and definitely a smooth smoke, leading to deeper puffs and heavier effects. Definitely knocks and drops tolerance levels, had to, for a long time actually limit consumption. Waiting to see how things pan out during the cure

Unwrapped, dried and revac sealed the cob sand husks. Intense smell of molasses, definitely more intense than the 3 day ferment. Busy air drying a gram.

Below my test of Hybrid strains using @oldsandalsmethod without cob husks and the other some skunky sweet cheese strain. The test without the cob is @TotemicChocolope haze, a dank compaction of sticky stinky gooeyness
-
Vacuum sealer is critical for eliminating O2 exposure, I'm new to this but I assume the process is similar to avoiding turning wine into vinegar. Vac sealer also compresses the cob, compensating for the natural loosening of the cob due to compaction of the bud. Hence the need to tighten windings after 3 days of vacuum compressed cob bud.

After 3 days of almost anaerobic sweating and fermenting, I open the bag and get the dank smell of fermenting sugar cane and gherkins or capres. Overpowering yet sweet in nature. Left cobs to surface dry before revac-sealing. Will leave to cure vacsealed inside cob for 1 more week before first sample and final vacuum seal for at least a month. More schlep compared to air / jar cure, however, if this method results in a viable edible product, then I'm sold, and may reduce my ingestion by smoking.

Probably true bro, I was a newbie at the time, and still learning about this dear herb...

Delicious biltong vibe- Tangwena legendary, seems like a dinkum fellow though. Eating that stuff will bring a whole new meaning to edibles old bro sandals
-
Have you decided on a strain yet? I plan to make 2 more, a hybrid strain and another with Indica..
-
Washed buds once, was desperate and impatient. Bud loses bag appeal though, definitely smokable and effective

Kinda feels like I just mummified my stash

Vacuum sealed and sweating atop the 250W hps

Dope Friends Anyone tried curing there buds this way? Took 30g of a sticky Sativa strain I grew from Lesotho Heights bagseed. Very sweet perfumy aroma. Some say this technique increases potency and trippiness. Let's see. After the wrapping the cobs I vacuum sealed them and placed on my Hid lamp ~43C
-
Not bad service considering the time travel required.
-
If all entrants submit 12g, methinks that's quite a bit of indoor weed to be smoked.

' You will need to register your entry by Sunday, 21 June, 2020. To enter, you will need to pay an entry fee of R500. This will get you a complimentary 3 pack of the President Seeds feminized seeds or a 6 pack of Garden Route Genetics regular seeds of your choice which are to be grown for your entry, rolling papers, and stickers, as well as a digital kit of elements to use on your social media. If you already have one of these breeders seeds or have already started growing them you can enter at no charge. @PromNo autos unfortunately

Classic ghetto skill bro

Looking tasty, how's her smell?

Do you water/feed until run off?

From Prom's light link "TS 3000 QB Design Led Plant Grow Light for 4'x4', Sunlike Spectrum with IR, Replace 800~1000w HPS - Mars Hydro" The reasonable yield standard has always been around 1g/W for Hid. Mars claim of equivalence to 1000W seems credible and if so, so does Prom's ~1kg yield. I've got a 250W Hid grow on the go, I'd be really happy with 250g, ecstatic with 300g.
-
Any recommendations from Cannabist's offering?
-
Wow, means that your light is roughly equivalent to 1000W Hid at 1g/Watt Well done mate.
