Germination
I’ve been pretty quiet lately, just interested in handling my own business and keeping my finger on the pulse of grower community through forums and the people I know. I want to speak on something that’s bugging the hell out of me (which is usually the only time I speak).
Vegetation
Marijuana seeds are a huge and important commodity to the grower community. As a grower and connoisseur, I know that marijuana is not all the same. Ask any grower, medical user, or connoisseur. A typical person, using or not, wouldn’t understand the nuances of marijuana to appreciate the different effects.
Once you get to the point where you’re looking for specific traits, that’s when you start paying attention to the names and how they differentiate from one another. You can tell by the leaf structure that a plant is either sativa or indica or which side is most prominent in a hybrid. You can smoke marijuana and relate to it beyond the typical comment, “This is good shit!”
Flower
As a grower and connoisseur, I am extremely pissed off at BCSeeds.com for attempting to take advantage of marijuana growers. They claim their marijuana is the “world’s strongest” alluding to its high percentage of THC. Take a look at some of their seed stock… [link]
- Pickle Bud @ $2,995 CND ($2850 USD)
- Oracle Bud @ $1,995CND ($1898 USD)
- Labrynth @ $1,495 CND ($1,422 USD)
- Euphora Express @ $1,495 CND ($1,422 USD)
If you’ve already looked into purchasing seeds, you know these prices are upwards of 10 (ten) times higher than normal pricing for the more popular strains of marijuana…
- Sensi Seeds Jack Herer @ $150 EUR ($223 USD)
- Soma Seeds NYC Diesel @ $130 EUR ($193USD)
- Green House Seeds Trainwreck @ $45 EUR ($66 USD)
While I want to say that BCSeeds’s claims are total bullshit, I will give them a chance to prove it. I want to see diaries/journals of their marijuana plants from seed to harvest with pictures. I want to see video of the THC testing by an independent party.
In other words, I want justification for these ridiculous claims and outrageous prices.
Also, I want to point out that these strains – Jack Herer, NYC Diesel, and Trainwreck – are popular due to their numerous awards. In other words, the men behind these strains of marijuana had the guts to compete against other breeders. Where are BCSeeds’s awards that may at least help justify these outrageous prices?
Harvest
If you have $2,850 to purchase “pickle bud” seeds, I suggest you go to Canada and pick them up personally. It’s not to insure that you receive your product. It’s to make sure that you have a face and concrete location to associate this nonsense WHEN you want your money back.
Cure/Smoke
Don’t buy from BCSeeds until they do a better job of proving their claims. Don’t get ripped off by these people. Stick with the award winners. They’ve won awards for a reason.
You know I don’t smoke, but I hate what the judicial system does to people, especially minorities, who do.
That being said, I’m really glad you’re okay!
LOL@ those prices. I’d rather take chances with bagseed…
Guys I discovered this posted at my site recently, what are your thoughts on a subject? Can you thing me too some much better guides on a subject?
Its all regarding [url=http://multiboxing10.typepad.com/blog/2010/07/how-to-grow-marijuana.html]how to grow marijuana indoors[/url]. The site linked also has some information that is quite useful.
[quote]Marijuana is really a fantastic herb that grows naturally all more than the planet. Unfortunately it’s still illegal to grow marijuana in several countries. Please check your local laws previous to growing marijuana. With that said, letâ??s get growing!
Itâ??s a general consensus that growing herb is finest done using a beneficial hydro system. Hydroponics is the system of growing a plant without having soil. You’ll find a couple of numerous ways to grow with hydro, but regardless you have to pick up some supplies. First and foremost you would like a light source to grow your herb. There are lots of technologies out there and I will break down the benefits and disadvantages of every for you.
The cheapest and most inefficient light source is compact fluorescent lighting (CFL). You can find a couple of a variety of styles of CFL lighting. Some individuals grow marijuana with CFL light bulbs. It is possible to pick these up at the grocery store including a splitter at your local hardware store. Itâ??s a excellent thought to strive for at least the 100 watt bulbs mainly because one thing much less just isn’t giving off adequate light. Retain in mind that these are not in particular efficient so you’ll need as several as 8 or much more to grow and flower Three plants. Another kind of CFL lighting may be the shop light style. These have a metal bracket utilized as a reflector and also the bulbs themselves are extended and cylindrical. This type of lighting is often a tiny a lot more efficient than the CFL bulb but even now not ideal for growing marijuana. Whichever variety of CFL bulb you choose, strive for your bluest temperature for vegetative growth and the warmest color light for flowering.
The next lighting type is Metal Halide (MH). You see metal halide lights anytime you leave your home out night, as thatâ??s what most street lights use. Metal halide lighting works by converting power with a ballast after which delivering it to an HID bulb. This lighting type is very great for vegetative growth but not so a lot for flowering. These systems use incredibly many electricity and give off substantial heat so you ought to always use MH in conjunction with great ventilation.[/quote]
