Cannabis Indica was the main medical species until the 1930's in the States,when medical use was banned. Mexican and Jamaican cannabis which had dominated the underground market up until that time,became essentially the dominant strains by default,post- MJ prohibition. However,Jamaican ganja of...

Having been to Nigeria,the weed around the Niger Delta is incredibly potent and quite psychedelic. As for the Malawian and South African weed,I've smoked those only in second generations grown in the States,but they're quite good. Most weed grown in Brazil,Venezula,and Colombia,originated in...

A lot of todays strains have polyploids in the family tree,it's just not mentioned or possibly known by seed houses,as colchicine's heyday was from the mid 70's to the mid 80's. I'd speculate that any pure Sativa that's hyped as having "large,dense,buds" has polyploid genetics.

Sifted/sieved hash is easy to make diy,Growing. I've been using the jar method I posted above for nearly 40 years. The first couple of years I did it I used sliced up panty hose as my final sieve. I use mesh from nylon bags used to hold potpourri these days. You can buy the bags at any craft...

There's a "strip" method that was used too,but I was never quite able to master it. You use a small knife to strip about an inch of the outer bark all the way around the main stalk. At spots directly above and below one another you peel back the bark the same width vertically for about inch on...

I'll tackle girdling because I've used it on and off for years. No it doesn't increase potency,but it does influence color and taste. Take a potato peeler or a knife,and girdle the plant in it's last 10 days/2 weeks of growth. However you don't want to completely girdle it,you want to leave a...

That's a kick ass diy light fixture. The design is easy to expand or scale down,depending on the size of the area you've got. Gutter is dirt cheap,as are cleated sockets if you shop around. You could even go with peg board instead of plywood above the reflectors to allow air flow to your...

Go with the humidor. You'll use it for years and it will keep your smoke at 60-70% rH which is ideal for smoking. I've used a humidor for years. The key is keeping the weed away from humidfying device,if it presses against the device,you can get mold. Do a web search for online cigar...

That's why we twist the ends of joints,so we don't get weed in our mouth,you guys haven't figured that one out yet? We're He-Man Tokers who pay no attention to how those Dutchie latecomers do things. We were been smokin' and growin' weed long before the wooden shoe boys knew what it was...

I use a method I modified from talking w/ my Lebanese relatives. Over there they build a hash box. It's a simple box with fine screens inside,and slit to insert bundles of kindling dry bud laden branches into the box. The top screen is rigid and fine. They stick the bud laden branches through...
