          • My grow room is part of the garage and the air conditioners face the big car part of the garage and they keep it warm enough in there for them (the A/C’s) to keep running. It’s about 50° warmer in there than outside temperature. Even when it’s -30⁰ My air conditioners kick on. When it does get that cold I do have to add a little bit of heat… Read more

            It’s important to remember that distillation removes terps and other beneficial cannabinoids. In the commercial cannabis industry distillation is typically used to salvage thc out of crappy or contaminated starting material. This is how a lot of dispensary edibles are made, and it’s why they usualy dont hit as hard or last as long as the…

            I like to collect pollen and save it for later. Air dry a little pollen on a glass plate for a few days then store in an airtight container with a desiccant pack. Keep it cool + dry and it will last a year or more in storage. Then you can pull it out and use a paint brush to selectively pollinate a bud or two whenever you want. 🙂👍

            Dwc is not complicated at all!!! But are you in actual DWC? Or are you in a recirculating system? They both need to be ran differently. Most commercial facilities use drip systems which is basically a recirculating system from a big res. Actual DWC is by far the Fastest way to grow. Super easy to fix lock outs and deficiencies because you…

            • Cannabis plants, photoperiod or autoflower are not sexually mature for about 4 weeks. This is about the earliest any plant can produce pre-flowers (photoperiods on a flowering schedule or an autoflowers internal clock), starting the flower cycle. Anyone who says an autoflower plant can start flowering based on stress and not time is just…

            • Think he’s addressing that they don’t start flowering when roots hit bottom of the media like you were wondering, they start flowering based off time. Seeds are a lottery. Some are winners, some not so much. Interested to hear how it goes keep us posted!
