yalla sog!
i'm almost done with my crop here too
i'll show pics,i think my last plant has stopped swelling and starting adding more flowers again...
sounds weird and looks a bit weird but maybe i'm reading the whole thing wrong
anyways i'll add pics of the last lady
the kandy kush will probably be this crops number one,heaviest plant i took down there and probably the only one that didn't lose to the spider mites
the royal haze also did pretty good compared to the rest of the strains
i'm guessing haze and kush strains are alot more resistant to insects than the rest
probably good for outdoor growings too
anyways man good luck and keep it up! i'm sure your drooling on those packed buds
it's an amazing site in the pictures so i'm guessing it's wwwwwwwwwwway better in real
hope for better years where we can all share our final product with each other without fear of blue bitches!
woohoo i love harvest time
forgot to reply bud+ - when i made bubble hash the procedure let's you break down the microns into diffrent sizes,i also have an ice-o-lator bag that does the same thing only with one bag and it doesn't break down the diffrent microns
to be honest the high from the mixed ice-o-lator always looks better,tastes better and the high is pretty good,you feel it real good
when you smoke the seperate microns you lose alot when it comes to how you feel the high
no matter which micron you smoke,they all lose some kind of body to the taste and high
it's cleaner but it takes a whole lot more to make you feel it like with reguler ice-o-lator bags
i guess in general i'm agreeing with everybody here
you can never tell potancy by eyes but like i said before,i love tasty eye candy,something about it works better for me than anything really strong in potancy
i'm guessing it depends on the hour of the day
at night i'm sure i want a sleeper,at day i rather have something help my add , and if possible help the creative side a bit
i travelled to jamaica when i was younger
stayed there for 9 nights
i hooked up on weed about 5 minutes after i arrived to the country,literly,i arrived,i arranged for a fair to the hotel i was staying in,the guy that was supposed to take me asked me if i wanted to hook up and i did
he told me not to look at the weed outside but to wait until i get to the hotel,of course i was very curious,the drive was about an hour
it was horrible... the whole way i could smell the stuff in my pocket... every bump and the odur would come out...
when i got to the hotel i finally had the chance to look at the weed,it looked like shit
it smelled great but it had no bag appeal like the amsterdam stuff i was used to from travel
so i made a small hit(broke my freakin lighter before i could light the thing and it was 2 oclock at night!!) don't remember how i fixed that problem
anyways the weed looked dark green.couldn't really notice crystals or anything,but after smoking it i figured it was so dark because it was covered with (saraf) it moisture is incredible in jamaica so the plants cover themselves with alot of saraf and it makes them alot darker...
anyways that shit was so harsh to smoke it was incredible,and the high was just too much,very harsh.
so i ended up hooking up on a small saraf ball not jaras(it was black and very hard and sweet as hell) the high was very mellow and uplifting,i would wake and bake very morning with that sweet ball
and i ended up making joints with the lethal mj to my friend which for some reason didn't even feel the shit... he took it and stayed in bed in a coma the whole time... while i smoked the lighter stuff
heh hope you guys like the story
and sometimes if the shit is too potant it just aint fun...
not to rain on your parade, it sound like you guys smoked some highly degraded THC
this reminds me of a story of my own
it happens over 20 years ago with my first full outdoor grow
single plant similar to NYPD1 with only 4 main colas
chopped it down mid September not knowing much of anything
i wanted to smoke i so bad; i figured the fastest way to try will be under direct sun
had a friend over we each had a hit; it was 3pm, the next thing i remember
is waking up laying on my sofa not knowing where i was
my fried was on the other sofa still knocked out; it was 6:30pm
i eventually developed resistance to it,
but anyone who smoked it for the first few times;
got knocked out and went to sleep like a baby,
much later i realized why, light degradation!
Cannabis is unique in many ways. Of all plants, it is the only genus known to produce chemical substances known as herbal cannabinoids. These cannabinoids are the psychoactive ingredients of marijuana; they are what get you high, buzzed, or stoned.
Most of the cannabinoids appear in very small amounts (less than .01 percent of total cannabinoids) and are not considered psychoactive, or else not important to the high.
Tetrahydrocannabinol - THC
Delta 9-trans-tetrahydrocannabinol - delta-9 THC is the main psychotomimetic (mindbending) ingredient of marijuana. Estimates state that 70 to 100 percent of the marijuana high results from the delta-9 THC present. It occurs in almost all cannabis in concentrations that vary from traces to about 95 percent of all the cannabinoids in the sample.
In very potent strains, carefully prepared marijuana can be 30 percent delta-9 THC by dry weight (seeds and stems removed from flowering buds).
Delta 8-trans-tetrahydrocannabinol - delta-8 THC is reported in low concentration, less than one percent of the delta-9 THC present. Its activity is slightly less than that of delta-9 THC. It may be an artefact of the extraction/analysis process. Almost everyone who uses the term THC, refers to delta-9 THC and delta-8 THC combined, as THC.
Cannabidiol - CBD
Cannabidiol - CBD also occurs in almost all strains. Concentration range from none, to about 95 percent of the total cannabinoids present. THC and CBD are the two most abundant naturally occurring cannabinoids. CBD is not psychotomimetic in the pure form, although it does have sedative, analgesic, and antibiotic properties.
In order for CBD to affect the high, THC must be present in quantities ordinarily psychoactive. CBD can contribute to the high by interacting with THC to potentiate (enhance) or antagonize (interfere or lessen) certain qualities of the high.
CBD appears to potentiate the depressant effects of THC and antagonize is excitatory effects. CBD also delays the onset of the high but can make it last considerably longer (as much as twice as long). The kind of grass that takes a while to come on but keeps coming on.
Opinions are conflicting as to whether it increases or decreases the intensity of the high, intensity and high being difficult to define. Terms such as knock-out or sleepy, dreamlike, or melancholic are often used to describe the high from grass with sizeable proportions of CBD and THC.
When only small amounts of THC are present with high proportions of CBD, the high is more of a buzz, and the mind feels dull and the body de-energized.
Cannabinol - CBN
Cannabinol - CBN is not produced by the plant per se. It is the degradation (oxidative) product of THC. Fresh samples of marijuana contain very little CBN but curing, poor storage, or processing such as when making hashish, can cause much of the THC to be oxidized to CBN. Pure forms of CBN have at most 10 percent of the psychoactivity of THC.
Like CBD, it is suspected of potentiating certain aspects of the high, although so far these effects appear to be slight. CBN seems to potentiate THC's disorienting qualities. One may feel more dizzy or drugged or generally messed up but not necessarily higher.
In fact, with a high proportion of CBN, the high may start well but feels as if it never quite reaches its peak, and when coming down one feels tired or sleepy. High CBN in homegrown grass is not desirable since it represents a loss of 90 percent of the psychoactivity of its precursor THC.
Tetrahydrocannabivarin - THCV
Tetrahydrocannabivarin - THCV or THV is the propyl homologue of THC. In the aromatic ring the usual five-carbon pentyl is replaced by a short three-carbon propyl chain. The propyl cannabinoids have so far been found in some strains originating from Southeast and Central Asia and parts of Africa.
In one study, THCV made up to 48.23 percent (Afghanistan strain) and 53.69 percent (South Africa) of the cannabinoids found. We've seen no reports on its activity in humans. From animal studies it appears to be much faster in onset and quicker to dissipate than THC. It may be the constituent of one or two toke grass, but its activity appears to be somewhat less than that of THC. Some people use the term THC to refer collectively to delta-9 THC, delta-8 THC, and THCV.
Cannabichromene - CBC
Cannabichromene - CBC is another major cannabinoid, although it is found in smaller concentrations than CBD and THC. It was previously believed that is was a minor constituent, but more exacting analysis showed that the compound often reported as CBD may actually be CBC.
Relative to THC and CBD, its concentration in the plants is low, probably not exceeding 20 percent of total cannabinoids. CBC is believed not to be psychotomimetic in humans; however, its presence in plants is purportedly very potent has led to the suspicion that it may be interacting with THC to enhance the high.
Cannabicyclol - CBL
Cannabicyclol (CBL) is a degradative product like CBN. During extraction, light converts CBC to CBL. There are no reports on its activity in humans, and it is found in small amounts, if at all, in fresh plant material.
maybe one day you'll give me an autographed bud hehehe... will be difficult to keep the signature intact though.
btw angel and bud+, there's something people term as 'cannabinoid profile', which means a specific combination of all cannabinoids and even terpenes of a particular plant; it is this unique blend that should explain how is the effect generated.
i self designed and build the NFT system

jesus man... that's a *beep* load of equipment!
that's some expensive bud there...
i'm still thinking what to do with my next setup.... the coco i get here is shit so i don't wanna use hydro shop crap coco
i don't want to go back to soil because of all the dirt
and the coco makes a mess also
anyways i'm still thinking what to do next
i'm breaking down my old closet.. it was a nice experience building it from scratch but the pests just ruined it
anyways looks cool man
