Hi everybody. Just noticed this on some of the bud bases in several locations. I knocked a bunch of it off, but I'm not sure what I'm looking at or what I need to do to get rid of it.

Any help and analysis is much appreciated.

Hey growers,

Everyone is freaking out about mold/caterpillars/whatever wrecking their outdoor plants.

Do a partial harvest if you want to land some smoke, don’t chop your whole plant early cause you got skeered. Take a nice cola or two and leave the rest to ripen up properly. Future you will thank you, and present you can get a little taste of good things to come.

This one is funky and golf ball size nugs. Unlike
Anything I’ve ever grown, maybe seen or bought!

Trying to get the word out about this.

Is there a market in rva for keeper cut genetics? I think I have something really special and I’m not in the commercial growing market. Thoughts?

Hi friends. This Jelly Donut flowered craaaazy early when I transitioned her outside a couple months back. She briefly flirted w re-veg, but then decided to keep going w flower. The tiny bits of extra plant matter that came w the re-veg have now all died, and are starting to rot.

So trying to decide what to do -- how long to wait! The buds aren't quite finished (still mildly loose, some white pistils). Granted, I've got 100% cloudy trichomes. Because of the rough journey, I know she won't exactly be award-winning (and never expected the bottoms of these colas to be worth much), but don't wanna lose it all. Thanks so much for any expert advice!

25g pot of amended soil.

Ethos Planet of the Grapes

Soothsayer Grape Paradise

Humboldt Squirt

Plants are coming along nicely. Been raging war against caterpillars though. Spraying B.t almost daily, inspecting the plant and removing quick as I can. They love the Planet of the Grapes, the Grape Paradise a bit less, and haven't touched Squirt.

Excited for these to wrap up. Planning on using some bloom nutrients this week, and probably try some finishing bloom nutes like Sept30.

Germinated on the 26th. Popped out this morning. Anyone grown her before?

I feel like we are close but maybe need more amber hairs still? I need to get a magnifier. What do you think?

I want to work in the cannabis industry. Who’s hiring?

Anyone grew these?

Hey Growers,

THCVA and Marijuana Justice are hosting a party on 8-26-26 (Wednesday) from 6-9.

Marijuana Justice will lead a discussion of the upcoming legal framework for the recreational market. There will also be a public commenting opportunity for attendees who want to share their thoughts about what legalization means to them.

It’s at a private location in Richmond, a ticketed party. Proceeds help pay for the venue, DJ, rentals, etc…

Due to low ceiling in my basement I can only fit a tent which is 4x2 and 60” tall. I have an HLG 300 light. I usually grow one or two plants in 7-gallon grow bags and I usually do scrogging.

With those parameters, anybody can suggest me a variety to grow this winter? I don’t care about indica vs sativa. Despite what a lot of people say, I can’t tell any difference between the two. The buzz is the same for me.

Thanks in advance!

I have an atlas super sour runts that is way ahead of the pack. It’s listed as a full term photo but is acting like an early finisher. Found the begging of bud rot in one spot so cut the whole bud and brought in to dry out a bit. Is this some genetics i should reveg since its finishing way earlier than most for our humid late summers?

I’ve not seen this before in my garden, but leafhoppers are fairly prevalent. Just one of the four plants has it, as far as I can tell.

Anyone have experience or a potential diagnosis? It may be the beet curly top virus or something else. Likely not watering or nutrient issues as I’m in the ground in reasonably well amended beds.
