Definitely some frosty shit haha. Wonder how the rest look at the frostiest plant challenge over at icmag lol

Mate I haven't been out of my journal there for months haha. Might have to give it a whirl lol.

 

[VinDeezle]

@Goonie Goat here's my attempt at frost this run haha. Going well enough considering the $10 potting mix this run and reliance on top dressing as usual, but the 12/12 start and topping fucked me over for sure lol.

NL/Juicy Fruit X Haze chuck still stretching. Showed sex at the same time as the ladies above and is the same age.

Autos in the middle have sexed but haven't moved into stretch yet by the looks of it luckily.

Looking healthy as all fuck brother. Fingers crossed those autos get some decent stretch happening. Should have sent some green crack x your way to test

Yea you did send some. I just have multiple stashes of seeds and the newbies are at me mums so I just grabbed shit from me chuck stash haha. I'm keen to get a few going come Mid Jan as i'll be done for a few weeks come mid-late november. Gunna pump a run of satties out in the 150x80 and keep a few autos in the closet in the smaller tents so they all finish up in April/may instead of feb/march in the heat.

Tossing up between the NH/MM x Malawi/Mozambique (HGO Haze) fems, Your AB or SAWs Laos x Manga Rosa Haze regs for the satties and keen to try the GC x Mango smile auto wise.

 

[VinDeezle]

The HGO haze (Nevs Haze/MM X Malawi X Mozambique). Memorable plant. Huge yield. 80x80 tent, 7 gallon pot and some massive buds. 8, 11 and 13 weeks flower. Two weeks veg. Mango, Honey and old coins on the nose..

 

[frankreynolds]

This is not my photo. I just wanna ask how do you make the weed looking like this? I remember when I used to buy from the street before growing my own, they were pretty dense and frosty. They probably used the chemicals like Goonie said on the other thread.
But what about this one?

Kinda looks like they trimmed for aesthetics, to the point where they will be cutting into the bud. seen it over in the states.

 

[Yuser420]

Day 55 today they've been back on 18/6 for about a week now I'll try to push 62 days then chop, some are looking pretty much done, think they said 65 days tops for all of them

damn that "last week" theory really worked well huh

Black market UK grown weed

Comment from reddit.

So I actually work in the canadian cannabis industry. What's the strai? I can find out for sure if I'm able to know the strain.

Been smoking 23 years and in the industry for the last 2-3 years as a budtender. Almost every flower that looks like that and is grown here is grown with PGR's.

Types of Synthetic PGRs Used When Growing Cannabis

Is PGR Cannabis Safe to Consume?

PGR weed is cannabis grown with plant growth regulators. Some cannabis growers raise PGR (plant growth regulator) crops to enhance growth patterns and fatten up valuable marijuana buds. PGR buds are thicker and denser than those grown without plant growth regulators.

But these plant hormones are not the best way to achieve a healthy cannabis yield. The visual appeal of PGR-grown cannabis is offset by its lack of trichomes, cannabinoids, and terpenes.

There are also natural types of PGRs that can be successfully used in place of synthetic ones. For example, cannabis cultivators can use kelp or chitosan and achieve the same impressive results as synthetic plant growth regulators. Natural or organic plant growth regulators present the bonus of environmental friendliness and safety for human consumption.

The use of PGRs often occurs on the unregulated black market. Synthetic PGRs can be harmful to human health and may even cause cancer.

How to Recognize PGR Cannabis

The main difference between PGR cannabis and natural cannabis is that PGR cannabis is grown with synthetic hormones, while natural cannabis is not. Plant growth regulators in PGR cannabis also lend a different appearance to crops. Here are some ways you can distinguish between PGR cannabis and natural cannabis:

PGR cannabis has harder, denser, and heavier buds.

PGR cannabis leaves contain fewer crystals than natural cannabis leaves.

PGR cannabis may feel wet or spongey, while natural cannabis has a drier texture.

Another way to tell PGR cannabis from natural cannabis is to break off a piece. Natural cannabis is fragrant with terpenes and flavonoids, but PGR cannabis has very little scent. Likewise, the taste of PGR marijuana is inferior to the rich flavors of natural marijuana. A telltale sign of PGR cannabis is a harsh, chemical-laced flavor.

Finally, PGR cannabis may make you feel different when you consume it. This difference is due to the lower THC content of PGR weed and the PGR chemicals themselves, and PGR chemicals may quickly intoxicate you and cause a “crash” in which you feel lethargic and heavy-headed.

Types of Synthetic PGRs Used When Growing Cannabis

Different types of PGRs may be used to grow cannabis. The most common types of PGRs are chlormequat chloride, daminozide, and paclobutrazol.

Chlormequat Chloride

This chemical encourages flowering and makes plant sizes more uniform and consistent. Chlormequat chloride may not be as carcinogenic as other synthetic plant growth regulators but may cause harm to the skin and eyes if contact is made.

Daminozide

Also called Alar, the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) classified daminozide as a probable carcinogen. Once used as a spray for fruits, vegetables, and other food crops, daminozide may no longer be used for this purpose.

Paclobutrazol

Paclobutrazol may be the most toxic of these three common chemicals, especially when smoked. Smoking buds containing paclobutrazol activate a chemical change that transforms the compound into nitrosamines, and research has implicated nitrosamines in developing severe illnesses. Notably, nitrosamines are a highly carcinogenic compound in tobacco (cigarette) smoke.

Is PGR Cannabis Safe to Consume?

PGR cannabis, made with synthetic plant growth hormones, has been linked to adverse health effects, including increased cancer risk. Synthetic PGRs may be carcinogenic and therefore are not appropriate for human consumption, and cannabis made naturally or with natural PGRs does not pose the same health risks.

Besides being potentially carcinogenic, synthetic PGRs may present the following health hazards:

Skin and eye irritation

Organ damage (if large amounts are ingested)

Adverse effects on fertility

More research is needed on the potential health risks of synthetic PGRs. To be safe, know the origin of the cannabis you consume and only purchase products from reputable growers who use sustainable practices.

Pretty sure one of them PGR's listed was pulled from use in orchards due to causing cancer in the late 90's - 2000s. Can't remember what one but imagine if you combusted and inhaled instead of just eating/ingesting. Only allowed for use in ornamentals/flowers

All of them should be banned, can't believe they still sell the shit but that's how they get away with it saying it's used for bonzai/ornamental plants I suppose. Wonder how much of the supermarket fruit is tainted with pgrs, I heard they pump melons and grapes with heaps of pgr's

table grapes they sometimes use Gibberelin but other than that I'm not sure. We sometimes use GA on the citrus but gotta be recorded properly by product name and everything as the usual is when spraying

some of the cannabis shops in Thailand got exactly those kind of weeds. I was impressed and asked "I grow weed as a hobby too. But never got this kind of results. how did you do it?" and they just laugh and said "it's secret".
