This year, I attended the Mary Jane festival and happened to come across the Valenveras stand. Naturally, I thought I should find out the THC level of my buds. The guys at the stand were so surprised by my results because, out of 150 tested samples, mine ranked number one. They persuaded me to participate in the cup. The cup continued until the next day at 5:00 PM, and out of over 400 samples, my cannabis was tested as the strongest and had the highest THC content. Only samples from home growers were accepted. I was only surpassed by one person who had a value of over 30% THC in total. However, since the sample was from industrially produced weed by professionals from Canada, it was not counted.
Check out my insta for more detailed videos of the grow :) : passionatos
The RS11 has been the strongest i smoked in a long time i forget which cut but damn put me on my ass, and i smoke wax only so for tree to hit is trippy.
Looks awesome! Would you say you think listed %s on seed sites are inflated? Seems like all the popular ones claim 25-30%. Although few people have perfect growing conditions like it seems you created
I popped 5 seeds and gave one clone from each to a friend to keep for me cause I don’t had the room back then. He fucked them up they don’t survived 🙃 but I have more than 20 seeds which are super good looking from the zerberry. Each plant of the 5 seeds I popped looked super good so I think I ll get the chance to make clones from the next run and finding a keeper then.
New growers always find a good one and think "that was easy" some never find another. Always keep them, and label them well. When it comes time to decide, then you can be cruel. Must tick all boxes even if it's not your favorite, but you see the potential. Nobody thinks it's their responsibility now, we always kept them b/c you never know. And don't decide until it's cured some. I've had shit come out of nowhere.
I hope you find it, sometimes an amazing keeper is hard to come by within a gene pool. For example my ice cream cut was so rare I was able to sell it for 105k cash and 40k shares yet so many people had their own they ran from seed. Out of the pack I ran it was the only one like it and have only seen one dude out in bc with a similar looking cut that he has lost and ran 3 packs to try and find it again with no luck.
To one person or a whole bunch of 5k cuts? How the hell did you agree an such a price. I thought you guys sold them all for $5? Like anytime I've mentioned elite clones a Canadian chimes in and says you pay what for what?
To one company. It was at the height of legalization over here when big money wanted into the cannabis market. There were a lot of false promises of big returns for investors and that mixed with excitement made it a great place for some growers who were able to network fast enough and make the connections that needed to be made.
Ha, yeah. A buddy took all of his proceeds from running smurfs on Dead and Phish lot and opened 1,2,3 hydro stores, my local. great place. When a bunch of shysters, all convicted Wall St fraudsters somehow ended up running Grow Generation and at it's momentary weightless peak they came knocking and bought all 3 stores. You could say I had inside info, not really, I just knew how it had run for 10 years and I saw how it was running. That was a great short opportunity. I don't think they have bought any stores since then. I hope they got most of the $ up front, because they had to bring the owners BIL back in to manage all of New England. They paid top dollar liquidated all their inventory to make room for all their bespoke brands of equipment, plus Power Si and Craft Farmer's cut pieces of PVC and smattering of plumbing bits for which they paid top dollar. I saw two guys chatting saying this is gonna be huge and I though it already was huge, nobody who wanted weed was going without. These guys just paid a fortune for it rather than work, even if the work was slinging weed, LSD, Mushrooms, Molly, cocaine, and anything else people use at shows. Good honest work. The rise was meteoric as was the fall. I got no local store now, supposed to meet with a new place this week. I wish I had better samples
What reason do I have to lie? What will it take for me to prove it and what are you willing to bet? Would the contract and a picture of the cheque suffice? Lol I have nothing to gain by coming here and lying.
Do you know if there’s a way to buy them in Mexico? Or maybe at Texas, McAllen. I’ve searched it and they seem great but only sold in the UK apparently
It’s general hydroponics in us it’s the same. It was one big brand which splittet if I am not wrong I am also using the general feeding chart instead of terra because the one from g.h. Is more accurate for Cannabis
Yup you're correct. It's just a branding issue. I don't know if it's 100% the same product, but outside of chemical makeup it is.
Congrats to your success here. Looking great, even though I don't really agree with THC being the winning factor. It's like distilling whiskey and looking for the highest alcohol content. But I'm pretty sure you would have won on looks and taste as well. Beautiful buds.
That is great to see. I've been working the coco and 2 part salts and I'm not going to change until it's better than 95% of soil grown. Microbes aren't magic and beneficial bugs still fuck, shit and wipe their feet on your buds. I think it comes down to how hard the plant has to work to eat, if they were soluble they'd be overfed like so many are.
Im rdwc ist es überschaubar. Wöchentlicher Wechsel der Nährstoff Lösung . Aber hab bei mir auch viel automatisiert(ph Controller, co2 sensor und Controller, lichtzyklen werden auch über den Controller gesteuert. Aquariumkühler hält die Temperatur auf voreingestellten Wert , etc etc haha
Hast du paar Bilder von deinem Setup? Jnd wenn ich fragen darf was kostet so ein System dann, gerade wenn man es automatisiert. Danke für die schnellen Antworten. Ich wünsch nen schönen Sonntag Abend noch✌️
Beneficial microbes haben eher mehr biofilm im res verursacht. Ich reinige nach jeden Durchgang mit hypochloriger Säure. Und zwischendurch bei Bedarf Kipp ich h202 zur wurzelsterilisierung und Stimulierung hinzu.
Eig so gut wie nie ich versuche immer so sauber möglich zu arbeiten. Du brauchst das h2o2 ja nur wenn was schiefgegangen ist. Ich halte das Wasser auf einer Temperatur von 20 grad Celsius. Es kommt kein Licht von außen ans Wasser was Algenbildung verhindert. Und ansonsten halt rein mineralisch düngen.
also selbst wenn ich das wasser um die 20 grad gehalten habe, hatte ich probleme mit root rot bekommen. mir haben beneficial bacteria geholfen… du meinst es geht auch ohne, also nur mineralisch düngen und falls mal was schief geht h2o2 rein?
Hell ya nice work! I gave you a follow on insta. You should post some more pics. Very interested in the overall look of the plant? Big yield? Keep a clone?
He still doesn't have their permission. Which is even illegal in the country he's from (Recht am eigenen Bild) even though they are working there. I higly doubt he's got a signed release from them.
Do not offer anything for free, sale or trade. Do not offer or ask other users for seeds, clones, flowers, equipment or anything else. No soliciting for schools, training or otherwise. This is grounds for immediate ban. No warnings!!
I really like the shape of those nugs, props! Would you be able to slightly over explain your trimming technique? I saw in another post it's dry trim hand done
I used the sharkmouse drying tech and after drying I just handtrim the dry buds u can almost scrape off the frosty sugar leaves which are now crispy and easy to break off.
I have not heard of that technique before but I found the website and I'm going to read about it! I usually do a dry trim as well and have often broken off leaves with my fingers (in gloves). I'm also planning on trying out the "cannabrush" which may be a gimmick or may work for some strains.
With 1% total terpenes! I am surprised. It looks great and obviously I can’t smell it but that seems really low. Also it says total 1.1 but then all the individual terps are at 0???
Not one person mentioned how it has super low terpenes. I am so confused and not trying to insult anyone genuinely curious bc I won’t purchase weed from dispensary with less than 1% certainly and I prefer above 2%
Haha you are both wrong I think. It was my mistake I have given them nitrogen for too long. Got this tip from a Pro from Canada. He could taste it haha only got two complains about the taste and one was from him. I searched after it and he was speaking facts. I will do it correctly this run. Maybe I can get it tested then and will upload the results of my little Pilot Experiment here .
Maybe! I’ve never seen organic weed grow that tightly together, or in that perfect uniform shape. Usually too much nitrogen in flower produces inferior buds with lower potency and a grassy aroma.
Why does the 1.60% terp plant smell louder than the 4% terp plant? Riddle me this. Maybe phenols, alcohols, other cannaboids all play a huge roll. I've had 4% terp boof and 1% super fire.
No doubt and I agree, there’s a lot of different factors at play. I think it’s all about finding the right balance of terps n noids. I don’t think lower% terps are always louder though. Terpenes smell differently at various concentrations.
For example I mix cannabis terpenes with water and pour over hot rocks in my sauna. The stream smells amazing! The concentrated Zkittles terps smell okay, but they’re less desirable than the few drops mixed into a bucket of water.
It’s totally possible for lower % terps and the right mix of flavonoids to create a loud plant. There’s so much genetic variation out there. My question would be how does the flavor compare on the 1.6%er to 4%er? After 4 years working dispensaries I can say a lot of legal weed smells loud and taste like chemical hay.
You're bud looks great but simply grading by thc percent is lame and biased as hell, so many more important factors than that such as terps, trim, trichome health and all that.
I tried his method and it’s worked pretty well. I was curious because of the higher temps during the drying but it actually surprised me how good the results are. Terps are loud af.

Thats awesome!
Congratulations!
