Weed growers thread

Anybody planning some winter grows?

I just finished my super DIY grow tent build. Have a late outdoor plant finishing off there until I can get some new seeds to start my new indoor grow. Will post some pics when I get a chance.

I want to but mainly for experimentation. Where are you getting your seeds from?
 
@The_Mowgs - Those auto's = crap yield. The one was 30g's and the other about the same, a little less.

This is my second round of autos and the first time was much the same, low yield, not worth the money and time IMO. I'll stick to photo's thanks. Triple the yield.

Ditto. I'd really like to try growing some autos over the winter to experiment with. I've got two clones from this season's photo grow, that I'll also be taking into the winter. As for seeds – who's got experience with getting auto seeds in SA?

Trophyseeds.com

Great service and they have a wide range of seeds. If they don't have it they can get it. I know they running a daily deal of day on autos, 50% off. Check them out on FB.

I previously tried biltong and budz. They have good prices. But I think I just chose shoddy strains + first grow = failure. My Black Domina barely grew and is now a tiny flowering plant. And the Banana Kush died.

I have my eye on another site (https://www.marijuanaseeds.co.za/) to try also. Nice variety and also good prices. I am going to start with Auto's. I have some things I want to try, to see what yields I get. Also for a bit of experience. Then I will do photo's again.

I have a bunch of bag seed and past plant seed, but don't want to waste that on indoor grows and light hours. I'll save those for cheaper outdoor pots and basic soil. Unless this lockdown end up being endless and I can't get seeds sent, then I will need to go to my last plants seeds (it got partially pollinated - lots of seeds and little bud).

Thanks. I used them in this last grow, nothing wrong with them, just want to try someone else. Theres the cannabist.co.za but have not tried them.

I'll check them out also. I ended up reverting back ti Biltong and Budz for the next order for various reasons.

Will try some others on the next round maybe.
 
So! I've harvested the first of my three girls today. A squizz under the loupe revealed that she'd turned her final corner, with around 20% of the trichs amber. So off with her heads!

I've hung her up to dry for the next 10 or so days. Thereafter – 10 more days in the jars and then, finally, I'll be able to report back on my first harvest of homegrown zol!

Thoughts?

Morning Noob here. Been lurking a while and just going to jump right in with a question or 2! Busy with a very late grow. So far she has overcome all odds. Very late in the season. Found her in a heavy shaded area and planted her out in March. Survived a heavy hail storm. Oh, and she “was” a hermie! Been nipping off the pollen sacks and seems like I have changed her mind that she is a proper lady! Been giving her a worm tea feed weekly and she has exploded when flowering started. In 3 weeks she has grown from 40cm to 99cm this morning! Need some advice to see her to a proper harvest. I have some Nutrifeed that has nice high levels of P and K (low N). Do I change her nutes to this now or should I just continue with the worm tea? Or can I combine the Nutrifeed with the worm tea - or does the salt based nutes kill all the benefits of the worm tea. Sorry for the long post! Thanks. Some pics

Honestly man, and I really don't mean to be harsh, but cut your losses and move on. I doubt that plant is going to give you anything worth your while. She has hardly started to flower and we are heading into winter, already the temps are getting to low at night to sustain a healthy plant. Plus if it gets any frost then the frost melts and cause mold.

I mean see her through but you ain't going to get anything worth smoking, especially that it already hermied.
 
Thanks. Only plant so will see it through and hope for the best - if only to learn before the next season starts. Will it help to bring her inside / under cover at night?

You gotta learn somehow. I was clueless when I started.

You can bring her inside, but she needs complete darkness else it will hermie, but I guess that already happened so not the end of the world.

Do yourself a favour and get some good auto seeds, some fabric pots and some just cannabis soil. Pop the seed and leave it, the plant will grow and flower on its own, easy as pie. Just add water.
 
Loved reading the entire thread. Learnt quite a bit.

I don’t need to harvest anything but just would love to have a tree in my little area I call a garden. If anyone is throwing out a male I’d be keen to take it just to look pretty at home. nothing too big though lol

Maybe at a later stage try growing a female and harvesting... but lots to learn before I go there.

You don't want a male, well at least the neighbourhood growers don't. Males pollinate females and seed them which is not good. Get yourself some seeds from a bag of weed and plant those, if its a male kill it. Female let it grow, even if it never flowers it will grow and be a little weed plant.
 
Also one of the members in this thread gave me some good stuff recently. Something he Mentioned his dad grew, job well done and I should probably get some advice from him

my neighbors had quite a huge load of trees and removed them due to another neighbor accusing them of being drug dealers (spiteful after their dog bit her off leash dog).
Nobody else in our area grows (and I know almost everyone in our little area)
So males won’t be an issue for me especially since I’m just trying to add some aesthetic appeal to my little space.

once I know how to care for a plant I’ll spend some time on a female and attempt a harvest... not that I need/want it. Purely for the enjoyment of growing something.
