Last week we had five days of rainy damp weather, and even though I’ve been spraying my two plants with organic fungicides, I noticed telltale signs of Botrytis Blight, or Brown Rot. Yes ugh! It’s about fourteen weeks since I planted three seeds, a Painkiller XL and two Sweet Afghani...

TS I wish you luck. I'm a beginner at all this, especially with cannabis. Sure I dabbled a little in the seventies, but really didn't smoke much. More of an opportunist, if friends were smoking, I'd try some. But I probably smoked more in high school than college. The last time I smoked...

I went through each stem before hanging them and instill missed a few infected sections. My stems were hung in my attic room where, due to the weather, it was in the 90s temp range. I had a fan on low to circulate air slowly, and my dehumidifier set to 40. Doing that allowed it to dry in 48...

Oh, that's funny. Skunks are beginning their Fall migration in my area. Spotted the first roadkill of the season less than 2 miles from my home. I only grew two plants this year. It's my first time and I was trying for a more medical grow. Both plants were of the strain Sweet Afghani...

I'll take some photos. But those buds, far enough from the rot appear to be okay. The actual buds, were pale green shading to tan. I couldn't find any signs of mold or fungus on them. And under a UV light they appear fine. I did look at buds I placed in the jars under a black/UV light. I...

It showed up fast on one of my SAD plants. I cut out the infected parts and immediately harvested. Used a hot dry room to dry the buds quickly. After drying I inspected each and every stem and bud. Many more were infected that showed no obvious signs. Green on the outside and brown/white...

I'm only growing (two plants) because medical marijuana is not covered by my health plan. So any that I buy must be paid for out of pocket. And since I'm disabled, and on a fix income, this will save me money. Now in my State, I will have to buy some product from the dispensaries, to keep my...

According to Maryland's Medical Marijuana laws, we're not allowed to grow any plants. We medical marijuana patients can possess it, but we can't grow it. May I ask if you're in a city areas or rural? I'm in a rural area, and this year I tried growing for the first time. I wasn't greedy, I...

Monthly drug tests? How do they know, how can they tell if you're using ther products or not? I didn't think tests for marijuana were that sensitive or accurate to determine what strain your using. What gets me is this is medical marijuana, and because of federal laws health insurance...

Final thoughts - 1. To fight red spider mites, buy some chive plants and put them at the base of your plants. This really helped to prevent them after I found an early infestation. 2. Use Organic Fungicides, Miticides, and Insecticides. They really work. The ones I used were mostly made...

Okay, you all know I had to travel for two and a half weeks, leaving one plant unharvested. (It just wasn't ready). The day I left I sprayed the entire plant with organic fungicides and insecticides. Then i covered it with a fine netting to prevent caterpillers. I arrived home this past...

I'm going to wait. I checked the Colas this morning. Mostly all the pistils are white. Trichomes do show some milk, but not one amber in sight. We leave Wednesday for our trip (New England and Canada Maritimes cruise from Cape Liberty (Bayonne, NJ) to Quebec city (two nights), then we take...

I tied both of mine over. The first plant when it was about a month old and the second plant at two months. I also nipped the terminal bud on the first plant. The difference? First plant stayed about three feet in height and was bushy. Second plant was tied at two months when it hit six...

Hey guys, thanks for responding. Here are two photos of colas. This is a Sweet Afghani Delicious, Fast Version. Supposedly ready to harvest in early September. But it's not where I want it to be. Hardly any pistils have turned brown. If it's like the other plant, it...
