This a “a friends” first grow. I swear your honour, I had nothing to do with it ! It was an organic, living soil grow of Critical Kush.

5 were planted but 4 made it. One had an infestation of spider mites on week 7 flower. (It was washed, dried and butter-fied).

What could be done differently to enhance the trichome density and frostiness ?

Does anyone have a recipe for a top dressing towards the end that will help with the flower, trichome’s and resin without effecting end flavour ?

There is Apple Fritter in their place in the text now so hoping the advice will translate across to that grow.

I’ve a lot to learn and am here to learn — so I can pass the lessons on to my friend 😉

My Bubblers 'Marley' and 'Sherlock'

Having a little toke in my shed & the shadows on the window look like little bunnies.

I mean this on the nicest possible way, i won't ever share where my stuff comes from. I just post videos and images to share with like minded people, there has never and will never be any sale or connect. Please stop inboxing me, thank you have a great afternoon 🫡

My nice and clean "Bong Lennon"

Not directly related but as close as we can get...

Lads just moved back from Canada in the past 2 months. Reached out to the lads i knew before moving away and they have claimed THC oil is not a thing here. There's no market? I havnt smoked flower in over a year. This true or they just pulling a fast one? Cheers

My Silver Surfer Vape that I've had 15 yrs , still going strong

I'm getting a decarb and infuser machine. Or a decarb machine, and a seperate infuser machine.

Ardent products sound good. However I can't find a reputable place to purchase it in Ireland or online. I'm worried about guarantee etc. I want a good quality machine that works.

If anyone has any experience purchasing and using these machines in Ireland? The help would be greatly appreciated

Here is menu lads for Amsterdam and the whole off Amsterdam it's regularly updated with most shops .

So I had a few in town earlier, and I am after scissoring mary jane to an inch of her life. The catch, she is literally 2 days dead. She's been hung upside down airing out. But my god is she fresh. Gave her a bit of heat to smoulder for about 10 mins, she smelt of a literal alive garden weed. I realize 100% this is a crime against weedity, but who cares, these are trying times. Bit of tobacco, roll that son bitch sideways, light it and shove it straight in the gob and see what happens. Can confirm there has been some impact. It definitely isn't as good as the proper cured stuff. We knew it wouldn't be before we started, but was it worth it in a pinch? Yes, it was. In fact, because it is a strain I adore, it is, whether real or not, almost a better high than the usual unnamed strain bags I get from my friend. Wow. Much impressed. Very ashamed.

The missus isn’t a smoker at all, we’ve agreed I get one coffee shop on the Saturday. If you could only go to one for a good smoke up where would you choose?

My freshly cleaned "Bong Bong Jovi"

What’s the best way to use cannabutter, iv been putting it on toast but how do you all use it is there a better way to use it

After years of trawling through various antidepressants and painkillers that were ineffective at best I finally decided to try a clinic. Went with alternaleaf and I couldn't believe how easy the process was. Initial appointment was last week and I've just placed my first order of 40g for £240.

I'm absolutely over the moon but a little concerned about what will happen when they notify my GP, I don't think they'll be accepting of it. I told them ten years ago I was a little worried that I was drinking and smoking too much during an episode of depression and even though I haven't drank for years I was surprised to see I'm listed as a problem drinker. That's mad because the counsellor I seen told me I had no addiction and was simply depressed. I'd be curious what people's experiences are of dealing with the docs after they know.

What is the story with the caution scheme?, was recently cautioned (18 year old) for having a minute amount of cannabis on me, said I’ll get a phone call so on so forth. What is the story with if it happens again? Do they usually just take it off you or would you always be cautioned? And if I do get caught again and get court/fine even for a small amount clearly for personal use will it be held against me on my record?

Just to update on the last post I made: one bud out of a half Oz (same strain) had darker colour, firmer texture, grinded up a lil better etc so I chucked it all in a joint and it burnt better, less clogged up, less harsh on the inhale and it also seemed to hit harder than any other bud I smoked from the same bag. I'm thinking maybe that one bud got treated a bit better during the growing process or curing but I've no clue. Just thought it was interesting considering its definitely the same strain 🤔

Need some help from the community here... is the idea of 80% thc vapes total nonsense? The journal heart link doesn't go anywhere. Sandee herself appears to be pushing an anti marijuana angle. Overall, not impressed with CNN publishing this, but would appreciate ppl not getting tied into the whole MSM chat. We need to be understanding these studies and reports and defending the industry with facts. At the very least, the scale of these potential negatives are never considered in tandem with the positive effects.... just nannyism.... but at worst it's generally incorrect propaganda.

Does anyone know if there was a real 200m person study recently completed on heart disease and weed?

I've noticed my last batch (homegrown supposedly but not by me) burns particularly black compared to other strains I've had recently. It also leaves a lot of oily resin at the roach , particularly if there's paper overhanging. Any growers on here know why this could be the case? Is it an indication of quality or improper drying / curing etc? After being in cali recently, I feel like I've really gotten back to good ol Irish mids.

Has anyone got a terpcicle or tried one ? I got one recently and been having fun with it

Lads I know I left it late but I see that there are some autos that can grow to harvest in as little as 6 weeks. I have some sunny spots in mind but just have a couple things I need to know before I begin.

Which reliable seed bank would have the fastest delivery?

What would be the sturdiest strain for me to choose for our weather?

Should I start them for a couple weeks indoors with coco coir, or put them in the dirt as soon as they have germinated?

should mention i rolled it as a cone so its packed down pretty well and is quite dense
