Fast Buds 2nd grow: Rhino Ryder and LSD-25
- Thread starter Herbisaur
- Start date
@Fuggzy no offense taken about the panko pastries! I had already melted my coconut oil and mixed in sugar and baking powder so I was committed! I ate one last night again and experienced the same catatonic euphoria I had the last time I ate one. I may have to start eating half at a time because a whole one completely immobilizes me. This morning I was still stoned! I will say that my favorite part about making the large patch of oil is that I know it remains potent for at least 3 weeks now. I often have tried to search how long the oil will keep for, but could never find a legitimate answer. I know that coconut oil is extremely stable and lasts years without refrigeration, but I didn't know about the THC potency. There has been no decrease in potency yet, so I'm pleased to know I can store batches if I need to. Usually I just make enough oil for one sheet pan of goodies and I'm done.
As for your pain. I am a strong believer in nurture over nature. I know many people are predisposed to certain conditions, but I believe with proper intervention most of these problems can be alleviated. I have a scoliosis and with different manual therapy, spinal elongation techniques, yoga, and non compressive weight training, I have decreased my curve by 25%! Doctors can't even understand how much I have helped myself. I refused a brace when I was younger because my sister's husband told me it would ultimately cause muscular atrophy in the very places I need stability! I have practiced different types of alternative medicine and had great results, which is one of the reasons I am pro-marijuana. An organic medicine that has so many possibilities for treating different conditions. Plus I like the psychoactive effects haha! Interesting enough I am pro-sugar, pro-caffeine, pro-carbs! Nutritionally I follow a lot of ideas proposed by Ray Peat. I have experimented with many different dietary lifestyles and his is so scientifically sound and has worked the best for me. Most of it is based on optimizing thyroid function and the rest kind of falls into place. If you get a chance you should read some of his stuff. He is a big proponent of coconut oil : )
@tripaholic88 16' away from your plants? you are a brave man! All the grows I have read they usually are about 24" away. Might as well push the limits I suppose. If the girls are loving it then you may change the way things are done around here! Throughout history there is usually some unconventional rogue person that rewrites the books! I like your style and your plants are looking beautiful!
@Fuggzy I'm about to look into that PM thing again...I thought I had turned on something that said receive conversations, but I'll see what's going on.
Also man I didn't know that about the air pump. I have a super shitty airstone and pump right now lol. I'm going to have to invest in a new one!

well im not that rouge haha these were the quotes that mars gave me for the light so im only like 1.5-2 inches below the limit but i did notice that once i lowered it to 16.5 inches away the leaves really perked up you will see it in my log where @Fuggzy and myself were discussing it.. but i do like to push the limits more often than not in life haha ;-)
during seedling: 24~30 inches
During veg: 18~24 inches
During flower: 12~18 inches above the plants.

Okay from what I understand the cannabinoids should be stable in the oil for years. The 2 things that will "dilute" the potency will be exposure to light, and O2. Obviously the oxidizing part wont be hard to over come in oils, so light shout be the main problem. Just keeping it in the fridge with a solid colored container should keep you in the safe zone for a long time. Thats all based on what I have been reading, but I have yet to test it myself. It kinda follows the same basis on drying/curing herbs in the grow tent. The over exposure to light can degrade the thc content.
So I am tired/drunkish/and had a few doses of the dragon.... are you talking about mind over matter? I personally believe in that. I believe we can allow something to affect use, but have the choice to overcome it , if that makes sense. I would not go as far as saying cancer patient can just will it away. but in something like my position, I feel that I could believe in myself more, and sustain a happy life w/o Rx drugs. I actually got in to an argument with my best friend tonight in regards to my choices compared to "western meds." Hes not a smoker of any kind, and does not understand "why the fuck I'd rather be in pain VS taking something Rx to ease it"......
I do too, but it formed from my osteoarthritis. So far it has not cause me any major problems, but at some time it will. To be honest I need to educate myself on it more.
Lol shit me too. I don't plan on cutting them out, just taking my usage down. I have a pretty heavy coffee habit. My wife LOVES carbs, so it influences my diet too. I am the cook here, but over time my diet conformed to fit around hers. Cooking 5-6 sides for 3 people sucks ass....I choose the main dishes, and try to limit the sides to 1 major carb, but it doesn't always work out like that.
I have a wide range of pumps from a single pump, diaphram style fish pump, up to the big 1 I linked, and about 12 in between. Until you get a larger unit, the smaller pump WILL help, it will NOT sustain, but help.
Alright time to give @tripaholic88 some shit as soon as I figure out why, lol. Have a good night, maybe tomorrow I'll be more coherent for this lol.... See ya then!
Day 20 girls are bushy I haven't really been touching them too much. So after talking to @tripaholic88 about pony tailing, decided I would pony tail this morning. As I was pulling up LSD's leaves I noticed several pistils! I went to my rhinos and they all have pistils as well. So I have 4 girls on my hands : )
I'm still not posting pictures until tomorrow, but I thought I would share the news! I told myself that when I saw pistils I would start my fish fert which is 2-3-1 with my buddha grow just to start introducing the girls to higher P, but I think one more grow feed then next feed I'll start fish fert. Then I will probably taper the grow down and taper fish up until grow is out and fish is solo by week 5 then start bloom and taper bloom up and fish down until fish is out by week 8. Everything is going really well right now. It scares me that they start throwing out pistils so early, make me think it's going to be such tiny plants, but I know from last time they do a lot of growing in the coming weeks!
Also I will reveal my little surprise hopefully by tomorrow
