Make sure you run a fan!!

You dont need powerful lights to stop flowering.

How can I keep my cannabis plants from flowering? — Ed Rosenthal

“How can I keep my cannabis plants from flowering?” I am referring to young plants germinated from seeds or clones that are hearty enough to bring outdoors. Now I want them to grow larger, but if they go by the natural light cycle there are over 10 hours of darkness which will trigger flowering.

I planted middle Oct and she grew until middle/end of Jan. To get a flat top, I pinched and breaked the tops daily towards the end, even into the flowering stage. All of the top buds are from horizontal branches.
 
Heads up, for those looking for CBD strains.. I see Mustafa got Charlotte's Web on limited stock

That’s was good looking plant you got there, that structure is amazing !
 
Random question for all you that have been in the online stash buying game for a while.
How did you guys find out about online retailers ? events ?
I’m asking because I’m rather new to this but I see 420M has been around for a while. Don’t know about KK and all the other places

For me this thread mostly. Would be screwed otherwise, don't want to risk garage zol, but in my almost 20 years in Benoni, have no clue where to find 'a guy'
 
HI everyone, was told to post here rather -

Just want to know if anyone knows what this is exactly and what causes it? It seems to spread all over the leaves and I'm doubting it is the crystals. Probably a sort of mold/fungus ect, though I really would like to know why this happens.

White powder mildew. You can use milk and water mixer, 50/50, and spray it on the plants daily for a week. This will leave a white residue on the plants but its fine, just do a bicarb wash when you harvest.

That plant is also seeded.

This seems like a common issue with friends who have grown

Wouldn’t recommend most local dealers anyways.

My mate buys from some guys in northmead but it’s really hit and miss. Also I know of a local dispensary in lakefield if you keen but, they kinda kak.

Thanks for the info! I don't grow these at all so I don't know much about the process or what can effect itbut asking for someone who doesn't use the interwebs.

On a side note - if you don't treat it with anything, harvest but then only use it for baking into dough, would that be safe to consume? I presume any fungus/mould is dangerous for smoking. I have read it isn't very harmful to humans except those with allergic reaction so I presume once baked it would be safe.

Furthermore does eating weed have any negative effects on the body long term, besides the cookie dough itself and its sugars? I've often tried to look this question up but there doesn't seem to be much research on the topic. I have only ever eaten it and never smoke it so I've been wondering this for quite a long time now. :unsure:

Even though there are very few long term studies about the effects of cannabis on the body and brain, they mostly agree that the effect of cannabis is only really "impairing" (negative, if you will) whilst intoxicated, and among frequent users there are some cognitive effects that persist beyond that.

That said however, most seem to agree that when a (frequent) user stops using cannabis, they return to normal cognitive levels soon after, with no detectable negative effects in the long term.

The only really negative sides I've seen around cannabis use is in behavioural changes, the damage from smoking (which edibles obviously don't have), and the most damning, the effect on non-adult (developing) minds (which is where permanent change/damage can occur).

One documentary I watched (which was done in Jamaica, many years back) found that even when pregnant women consume cannabis via edibles (they're not allowed to smoke it apparently) it seems to have very little effect on the children after birth - this was more from an observational point of view though, so take it as such.

The bottom line is that cannabis most likely does less damage to your body than breathing in the toxic air we have in our cities - especially when only taking it in edible form and not smoking it.

Unfortunately I don't have any links to share, so take all this with a grain of salt - as a long term frequent user my memory might no be as sharp anymore :)

Edit: One thing I forgot to mention is the fact that cannabis can trigger latent psychological issues in certain people, but there isn't that much research on that yet either.
 
Here's a question.. How do you know that you are actually receiving the strain that you purchased.. Maybe you purchased Ak47 but then you actually getting a different strain. These strains look all very similar. Yes the effects from an indica would be different than a sativa but again are you getting your pineapple express or your OG kush you wanted so badly.. Maybe you getting durban poison lol.. They should make a test kit so we can know..

If you know the strain then you'll know if you got genuine stuff, many good ones have pretty well-defining characteristics. unless you're a novice in the game this is not really an issue
