oh ok, yeah i dont deal i grow outside and smoke that over the year. im on a mac. do they have paint? haha im so dumb with this shit!
 
Nah a Mac would have some sort of equivalent, but for that image I think it's fine as the size it is (definitely doesn't stretch my screen, might for people with lower screen resolution but). Awesome yield! Do you keep the leaves and stems for hash or anything? :)
 
Looks very nice Raveone :) Quite jealous! at the moment the bud i am smoking is just fantastic, no negative effects! :)
 
Not with those plants lowHP but with my last crop i made some iso hash that turned out full melt, smokes real nice.

Yeah the reason i grow my outdoor i because i wit out on the un flushed hydro shit that gets around. I grow organic know what im putting in and smoking so i just smoke what ever i get over the year.
 
^ I get annoyed at the amount of hydro my dealer goes through, sometimes some batches are obviously pulled to early and taste like ass or some are near perfect like the stuff at the moment. I honestly prefer bush over hydro any day but it's hard to find as hydro can be done anywhere anytime.
 
Has anybody else picked up really small, rock hard nugs around Sydney recently? This shit is fucked. Weighs up fine, but chops up to shit. Hairy as fuck as well, really orange. Doesn't smoke up to good either, well not as good to what I usually get anyway. Wouldn't be surprised if it were slightly mouldy as well. I've gotten this a herb couple of times past couple of months, just a heads up. Such a rip off, don't even bother if you're offered it. :p

Sounds like the usual commercial Orange Bud/Red Devil that has too much bud hardener added. Get to know some connoisseur growers and you won't have to put up with that anymore.

That type of bud was up here in Brisbane 3 weeks ago, i agree with you as it being quite solid and chops up crap. Luckily now that's all gone and decent bud is around.
 
I got a REALLY nice indica over the weekend which I am currently smoking, smells great, tastes great, looks great and puts me on my arse for hours. The past couple times I have scored I have been getting hybrids that I would guess are slightly sativa dominant and at times weren't the most useful for sleep, which is one of my main motivations for smoking, so it is really nice to get onto such stoney, sleepy weed. It seems to give me a touch of the giggles most times I smoke it too! :) SO happy this is what I am smoking for the next couple weeks. My only real criticism is it could be a tiny bit drier, still though, it is by no means wet. I am not that easily impressed by smoke these days but this shit is fantastic, and the fact I have been craving strong indica for weeks makes it all the more sweet.

One thing kinda weird is the buds are really green, but a lot of the stems are purple. I have never seen this before, on the very limited occasions I have had purple bud in the past it was always the buds and especially leaves around the buds that would be purple. This stuff is well manicured but the leaves I can find on it are all green too. Does anyone know what could cause this? I am thinking it must be something to do with the genetics, because you would think if it was caused by the cold then the outside of the bud would go purple before the centre of the bud/stem. It isn't really that important but if any knowledgable growers out there could offer some insight I would be very interested to hear it. :)
 
not as much sunlight in the winter months = less chorophyll = more dominant dark purple colours rather than the greens you'll see from summer buds that get plenty of sunlight. it may just be the genetics of the strain as well.
 
^On the money there re. clorophyll and leaf yellowing, starting with the oldest leaves. Some known late-maturing outdoor varieties do display 'autumn-leaf ' huws in response to cold. In my experience these tend to be indicas and begin with the stem colouring first then fanning out from the leaf base. I've seen golds, the deepest maroons and purple-black colours in subtending leaf - examples abound in Lawrence Cherniak's pot-porn if you can still find his books.

^^ As a side-project I tried to find the happy medium between stunned indica and stoned sativa effects via cross-pollination and hybridisation and a few seasons later gave-up. Time and space restrictions limited the scale of things I could realistically manage, along with the attending risks. As a personal choice I prefer the latter and have managed to keep some authentic sativas ticking over. The ongoing project is chop a few months off maturation without compromising the spacey highs. Sounds worthy of some effort.
 
well, hopefully what i have in the ground is an dominantly indica, indeed :D it's much harder to tell this time of year in outdoor conditions. it went from the yellowey leaves to extreme dark green/purple stem and leaves with distinctively purple "hairs" on the tips of dark buds - forgetting the correct term there and not to be mixed up with the purple skunk strain which is dominantly a sativa. notably this happened after more direct sunlight for the plant and more downfall of water; the darker and more condense budding has me believing it's more an indica. only time will tell. i'll be lucky to get an ounce from it this time of year and the method used.

i'm rather inexperienced in growing but everything seems to be going right thus far. even the truss tomatoes i have are coming to a decent size :)
 
I didn't realise you could even grow outdoors in winter? I guess up in QLD may be a slightly different story than down here in South East Victoria though. I am guessing in winter that the plants wouldn't grow very large at all before they started to bud making the risk/reward factor unworthwhile for most people?
 
^ Does the top girl have a pedigree? Just curious about whether you knew it would take-on the characteristics it did and end-up as-per the photo before you started-out (... clone/cutting perhaps), or was it a chancer? Don't mean to pry btw, just interested in the growing.
 
it was a chancer; looked much better than it turned out to smoke. admittedly did pick some of it early around half way through what ended as a 16 week cycle which would have stunted it considerably- do have some seeds somewhere to sprinkle to give a proper workout when the time comes.

the winter breed there was something which just popped up out the door which makes it all the more interesting. it was guarded by grass through most of the first 2 stages and has really budded up since being opened up to the light. it's definitely doable but you reap nowhere near the rewards you sow in summer.

have got what is supposedly and turned to be purple skunk, some breed called cabbage (sa breed), white rhino and another sa breed. the rest is just a collection from bags over a matter of time, not really differing too far from 3-4 types. one gives off a beautiful red hair on these pretty little buds (sativa dominant) and another is a pungent smelling smack you on your ass kind of indica hit :D

Effect of Long-term Cannabis Use on Axonal Fibre Connectivity

Abstract

Cannabis use typically begins during adolescence and early adulthood, a period when cannabinoid receptors are still abundant in white matter pathways across the brain. However, few studies to date have explored the impact of regular cannabis use on white matter structure, with no previous studies examining its impact on axonal connectivity. The aim of this study was to examine axonal fibre pathways across the brain for evidence of microstructural alterations associated with long-term cannabis use and to test whether age of regular cannabis use is associated with severity of any microstructural change. To this end, diffusion-weighted magnetic resonance imaging and brain connectivity mapping techniques were performed in 59 cannabis users with longstanding histories of heavy use and 33 matched controls. Axonal connectivity was found to be impaired in the right fimbria of the hippocampus (fornix), splenium of the corpus callosum and commissural fibres. Radial and axial diffusivity in these pathways were associated with the age at which regular cannabis use commenced. Our findings indicate long-term cannabis use is hazardous to the white matter of the developing brain. Delaying the age at which regular use begins may minimize the severity of microstructural impairment.

Nothing groundbreaking there.. basically any psychoactive drug is dangerous to adolescents.
 
Victorias growning laws

Hi,
So I hear over the table at the pub that in Victoria when they put the bong laws in they also like legalised growing 2 plants in your back yard for personal use.. it was all ready decriminalised for that amount? And now it's legal?.Do not knowq of this is true or not
 
Not true, don't talk about illegal drugs in a pub unless you like the sound of jail.
