All things considered, not bad at all.  It's got some nice fragrant icing, and it doesn't smell like homegrown or lawn clippings.  If it turns out to be harsh or lack oomph, I'll just make my first batch of Bong-man butter.  It's not as tall as it looks....it's sitting on a kitchen chair for optimal morning light.  After Noon I stick it on the back deck.  We're right about at 12/12 light in the Great White North, so I'm letting it be.  Going on my annual road trip at the end of the month, so I'm hoping to harvest in 2-3 weeks.  Just starting to get some pistil color change, and the tops are filling in nicely.  Honestly, quite an enjoyable learning experience.

It won't be ready by then. I would say another 6 weeks. Looks lovely though, A Sativa I reckon. They can take anything from 10 - 14 weeks from start of flowering. This has about 3-4 weeks .IMG_0853.JPG.5181937027198415b2b29e7731d574a6.JPG

Hmm....That's not going to work unless I get some lights.  It's in the 80's sunny and humid today, but that ain't gonna last.  Your grow looks just about the size I need for my free closet space.  All in due time.  "Money for nothin' and your weed for free"  :)

How long did that grow before you cut back to 12/12 lighting ?

5 weeks from Germination. Lights on for 20 on/4 off

Leave yours outside It will be fine. They are very hardy and can take cool nights, it will be the watering that maybe an issue if it's dry for a long period of time. Any questions my friend pm me?

Much appreciated.

and here I am starving. No sources... :(

If NZ get around to legalizing it, I swear I'm going there for a holiday....

You could always move here? But having said that I wouldn't. Don't worry man it will be coming to a state near YOU soon.

yeah, been reading about that. It is not clear what the Federal Attorney General's position is as they apparently gave a detailed opinion to Canberra's Attorney Generals office then within hours completely rescinded it and offered another opinion. But it is good news and really did come out of the blue. Hopefully Queensland will follow suit. I'd still need to somehow get hold of a couple of good seeds.

In the end, Canberra's decision doesn't help me much right now. I don't know anyone from there. I tried to get seeds for this summer - no good, never arrived. The Dark Web is an option but dodgy as fuck. Why I'm being pushed into this kind of illegal shit purely because I choose herb over alcohol to help me unwind after a hard week's work gets me proper angry. Fucked if I can see why anyone would or should give a shit if I decide to have a spliff in the privacy of my own house to relax. I can handle smoke, but I have a real problem with alcohol. So apparently it's stiff shit for me. Fucking shit Government with their useless prohibition laws....

And I'm practically out of stock now - which is really old and not very potent anyway.

Throw me a bone someone!!!

Why is it hard to get seeds? I understand the problems importing seeds but they are not illegal are they? Here we can buy and get lights and tents - legally. As soon as the seeds sprout it's illegal. Weird ridiculous laws IMO.

The way forward of course is to grow your own. As long as the basic rules are followed, No Sell, No Tell and No Smell then you can obtain your own stash for basically what you would shell out for a couple of OZ's. 

Have you looked into it?

Yeah. Overseas seed shops (EU) now refuse to ship to AU. They said customs has clamped down and most buyers report no delivery. Seeds are illegal here AFAIK. I've never heard of seeds being available legit or illegit.

My problem is I no longer know people like I did back in the day. I have no avenues to get seeds. 😫

Feel free to gift me one in a Christmas card Chilli...😉

How did your girl turn out BM?

I was quite pleased.  Ended up with 2 jars of free smoke and it has a nice mellow taste.  I noticed some mold growing around the edges inside of the pot when I threw out the dirt.  Nothing on the tops or leaves though.  As recommended, I'm going to have to drill some more air holes on the side of the pot next time for better drainage and so the roots can breathe.  Never did know what I planted, but by looking at pics I'm guessing it's some form of 'white widow'.  The harvest and trimming process was quite fun.  Really amazing the stink one plant can generate.  Come January 1st, I'm going to look for a part-time dispensary job even if it's just for the Winter.  Lots to learn here, and connections to be made.

Excellent result BM. It will only get better with the curing process. Mold is never an issue with soil and as you say no tops which is a blessing. You don't need to drill holes in the pots just make sure there are holes at the bottom and when you water make sure the water runs off. Very easy to over water plants and if you start off in a small pot and pot up when the roots appear at the bottom, follow a wet/dry cycle all will be fine.

I am surprised by this as NY would make a damn mint on the taxes. Dopes.

My friend has terminal cancer.  Gave him 2 years to live months ago, and has the medical marijuana card.  BUT, insurance does not cover the weed.  Its off the charts priced.  So of course they get it on the streets  Who wouldn't.  I had to drop Trulicity as a type two diabetes med because the fuckers at Aetna wanted a $350 deductible for me to fill it.  NO WAY>  I mean, I have the money, but I am not doing it. I went back to Victoza, the once a day shot instead.  Trulicity is better as its one shot a week.  But its a tier 4 drug.  Bastards.  A friend of mine has it and gives it to me.

The system is seriously fucked up, no one should have to go through that or pay that much for medications.

Yes and NY is the worst place.  Still non recreational weed and still the gambling was legalized if you go to the casino, 34 mile drive for me, but I cant do it online!  They sent me an add, you can open an account in NY with Draft Kings but cant bet online.  Must go to NJ or Pennsylvania to wager.   Fucking unreal

What about the great white north? My sister-in-law lives in Saratoga Springs and my mother-in-law in Montreal. When she goes to visit mum she always brings back an ounce of the green for personal use. Of course she is taking a change crossing the border but according to her no one seems to care and she has never been checked. Who knows?
