No not I …
Okay have acquired some beans but they are regular seeds…am allowed to grow 4 plants…have seen outside examples of all three, the best being the Cowichan and the the D3NALI which smells like a diesel pickup did a burnout at a gas station … Buddy grew one of each strain this summer and they were all females 3 for 3 !! They were all around 5 ft. tall and the D3NALI is still going (probably 3 more weeks if weather holds, while the Cowichan is done this week and the EVERE5T next week.
It would ne a bummer to get 4 males, but think that with regular seeds
would be more possible to get a winner.

and
the D3NALI and EVER5T strains
Am liking what I see @ agseedco and great lakes. Also like World of Seeds and have looked at Dr. Greenthumb as he is close.
Have also thought about the immunity issue and thought back and think that it isn’t that.
Over 35 years I think I can tell if the smoke is decent or not.
I have purchased some really decent flowers from the provincial store the past year and it was kick ass…One to two hitter type. One was Black and I believe Tweed grew it.
Only problem is no way of telling until you try and you have to kiss a lot a frogs first. Also if it is fire it is sold out quick and is $$$.

Your good I couldn’t remember didn’t know if it was you or not
Ok so here we are 5 months later…
Ever5st turned out male @ 5 weeks and had 3 other plants on the go so with holidays and all trashed it.
The Cowichan Kush has had issues and of course showed up 1/2 way through flower and has turned into an experiment that J Crowe will love
but more on that later…
Finally the D3nali which is a sativa, I have include pics…had aphid problems early on and I sprayed it with a Safer Soap treatment and burned the hell out of it around week 5, it recovered but hurt yield. It has been curing for 3 weeks and smells like a box of vanilla cream cookies. Its a great daytime get stuff done focus smoke.

I don’t know… sometimes I feel like the higher cbd ratio makes it where “no ur right u don’t get higher”… but it lasts longer … am I right? Idk just seems that way sometimes… also … uvb is definitely proven to increase trichome production and if done with intervals of 15 mins on and 45 mins off during lights on during flowering increases thc and cbd… vs just thc… just thought I’d add that in… I know for a fact weed has degraded a bit as far as genetic quality… I remember it being way stronger and yes we smoke stronger stuff now… but I still say the stuff from before was even stronger and lasted way way way longer… anyone else agree?? The entourage effect is true or food wouldn’t matter in how it appears it would taste the same even if it was disgusting looking as things that were in picture perfect form… that’s been proven… so I wouldnt think that it’s untrue in the marjuana side of things as far as our minds and how we perceive things…

I’m gonna have to get a reference for that one, cuz last I read, the actual research labs testing UVA and UVB exposure to cannabis hadn’t found any promising results at all because the whole thing was based off one faulty study from the 1987 (Lydon et al). This is the reference to that study that is NOT relevant because it was poorly designed methodology:
Lydon J, Teramura AH, Coffman CB: UV-B radiation effects on photosynthesis, growth and cannabinoid production of two Cannabis sativa chemotypes. Photochem Photobiology, 1987;46:201–206.
Here’s a NASA funded professor at Utah State who has a USDA & FDA approved cannabis grow lab clearly saying that UVA and UVB have NOT shown increased cannabinoid or terp production in their 18+ months of lab testing. Another research lab also hasn’t found benefits:
That video actually busts a bunch of weed myths. Good listen and great bookmark.

Cool! I just grew the Magic Melon Auto from Humboldt too! It was the last plant I finished before shutting my grow space down for the holidays last year.
It went for 120 days, it was like the neverending autoflower. Given how long it flowered, I hoped for a nice heavy stone, but I totally agree with you - disappointing as hell. 
Did yours run super long too?
Here’s a nug of mine after about a month or so curing:

When I was young weed was stronger.
Bacon tasted better.
Colors were brighter.
I could actually read ingredients and cooking instructions without binoculars.
I swear it rained less too.
Must be a conspiracy

Okay then what’s he talking about here at 6 minute mark? https://youtu.be/amjeaUDWWwM
He’s talking about theoretical effects and known effects in non-cannabis plants, and that’s over a year old so we gotta keep up with the latest info. At the time that video came out, he was only beginning to test theories. Now he’s tested them, and others have, and they found NO EFFECTS.
In the interview I posted, he said unequivocally that UV doesn’t do anything for cannabis terps or cannabinoids. That’s from last month, after he’s been getting research data from his lab tests for the last 18mo and crunching the numbers. He said directly they expected results, but cannot get them.
Now that there’s independent verification of what he says from another research lab, I think the bar for proof that UV has positive beneficial effects is going to be MUCH higher.

Did you read the article? They said there is no proof. It’s a purely speculative article with no actual proof, just a profit motive written by a LED manufacturer who wants to upsell fixtures with new gizmos and whizbangs, aka value added features.

Does it include doohickeys and thingamabobs?

I was referring to the other benefits that they were talking about … like colors etc… Bruce bugbee also stated it makes stronger plants
Well it damn well better hahaha
Lmao whizbangs… hilarious… so ok I apparently totally misunderstood the trichome production benefits then… or they were full of shit… I must have been very high when I watched this video before… I remember watching it… kinda… damn I hate to mislead… now I’m aggravated … glad I didn’t buy uvb uva… I was getting there in a week or so… so thank you for clarification on this bro!!
