Best weed strain you’ve ever smoked?

Never knew the strain but I've been forever trying to find something that I smoked about the same era that had a lavender terp. Lovely stuff, got it …

Best weed strain you’ve ever smoked?

Hey biggies, what’s the best strain you’ve ever smoked? I’d have to say mine is either some Apple Haze I smoked back in Amsterdam or Blue Zushi from cali 🤔

+11

BF488

I’d have to say Cheese, between 2000/2005.

tescrow 9.7/10

Reminds me of my school days when we used to chip in £1/2 to get a £5 draws haha

Incubus420

These were the days 3 pound each and trying to pursuade a dealer to give us a tens

Lee5

4 ways on a teenth was not uncommon in NW2 in 1998.
Some lame hash with dog hairs in it from the local hippie-🤣🤣.

Those WERE the days ay.

Incubus420

Definitely and Luton blues

Ginget

For me it has to be some Bruce Banner #3 from 1e hulp in the dam all the way back in 2017. I've never been able to recapture that one. It was a skunky, kind of gassy & fruity type all rolled into one with such a unique flavour profile to finish. The high was second to none. Wiped me right out. Left me looking at the world with my eyes so bulged they were basically closed. They say you'll never recapture that first high, this one took me above and beyond.

Toking

Bruce Banner great strain very powerful

Ginget

For sure! It flew under the radar quite a bit and I think it's unique musk and it's face melting is why.

Blazin_Esx

I don’t know if it’s the best, but my favourite strain is Sour Diesel. I’ve been a fan since I tried the East Coast cut that Grey Area used to sell in Amsterdam. Some of the best tasting weed I’ve ever had.

Jayboy

Yes I remember that sour diesel from the grey area 👍😂😉also the New York city Diesel from Abraxsas.that was a nice smoke.i drove to Amsterdam that year 2006 if i recall world cup time..I smuggled 6 grams of that back 🥴.and made it through ha ha 🤣.those were the days 😉

tescrow 9.7/10

It’s for sure a classic

Chris1986

Yellow Zushi for me.

Toking

Chocalope!

Hashaholic

classic Stardawg, u can never go wrong

Weedhead

I had the best stardawg from SDL recently classic old school gassy dawg

Burny

I couldn’t agree more

Lee5

I’m not ashamed to agree.
Gets you boxed too. Can’t deny that.

tescrow 9.7/10

Quality Stardog is done off the best bud

AsianAndy

A Rare Cherry Pheno AK 47 from SIlk road in 2010.

tescrow 9.7/10

I see we got a dark web veteran here

Lee5

Ooh that sounds interesting.
Cherry AK.

I wonder what strain is it that brings this cherry terpene to the plate?

Kanon166

ESB - extra special bud , Old times #2 and S4 - Skunk 4 ways. S4 by far was the best I have ever had even to this day sadly it was a special made breed so will never have the oppurtunity to try it again :(

Stusleeper20vt

If you grow both those strains are available mate.
They're both OLDTIMER1 strains who sadly is no longer with us but some good fellows have taken up the mantle of his strains...people like buddelaire from fleur de mal seeds

Zigbull!

Still got a couple of Oldtimes seeds in the fridge I think, probably no good after all these years?

Lee5

You would be surprised.
People have germinated seeds found in Egyptian tombs thousands of years old.

cibulius

Super Lemon Haze from the original Greenhouse Coffeeshop in Amsterdam :)
Also Arjans Strawberry Haze is right there with it, properly grown in soil for pure taste, can't beat the sweet berry on the exhale!

tescrow 9.7/10

Ooo I forgot about strawberry haze, that was a great flavour esp the ones that genuinely tasted of strawberries!

GenHub2.0 9/10

8 month break with the family and dam is it good to be back with you Biggaz.

My favourite strain ever was back in 2004 and called MMG “Martian Mean Green” from DNA, I managed to get a few beautiful phenos from a pack of reg seeds

It was the ultimate strain and I’ve never seen or smelt anything like it since then ❤️

0rion

Absolutely loved that strain. I remember queuing for a long time as I was there for the cannabis cup (2006). Grey Area’s queue was ridiculous on a normal day!

A very special strain which I haven’t seen since unfortunately.
Would love to see someone give that a go and bring it back.

ShaunyBoy

Purple Haze back in 2008. Smelt and tasted like lavender. Haven’t had anything quite like it since then.

Man I used to get some banging street weed back around those times. Northern Lights, White Widow and good ole Cheese were the norm.

maxixe

got an oz like that in the late 90's, had the potent lavender smell and taste. think it was a bit on the indica pheno side. very dark purple and when you snapped the buds in half the core was almost black. amazing bag appeal. really strong and tasty stuff too

Thetechie2023

Gelonade I had a lovely batch a few years ago off the dw never tasted gelonade like it since and can’t even remember who the seller was called

incheyeg

recently went to albania, fuck knows what it was but it was something mint related.... they albanians know how to grow haha

tescrow 9.7/10

Best growers in the world hands down haha

gypsum_fantastic

Some sweet tooth from Barney's in Dam. Some of the "Ice" a local strain I smoked in Jamaica.
Barry Bonds from ULC on here

tescrow 9.7/10

Now that is some serious variety 👌

gypsum_fantastic

I get around like the Beach Boys!

Honourable mentions to the Hawaiian Haze at Katsu in Dam too.

Had serious difficulties negotiating everyday tasks after that.

Whiz420 10/10

Probably the timeless Afghan Kush for me

ShaunyBoy

EasyMe33

Oreoz from super Hans back in lockdown. Most expensive bud I've bought but it literally tasted of chocolate biscuits. It was heaven.

dazey

Special Olympics, a sativa strain from a Canadian MOM, Zippy about 16 years ago. One that will never be forgotten.

Wicked

Blue Cheese for me. One best tasting and strong high, wish it would come back.

Lee5

I recently had a ZOAP that was grown in Thailand that I honestly fell in love with.
I would like to get a top top shelf version to get down with.
Imagine the hash you’d get from that aswell🤯💯❤️❤️

ODIN'S 10/10

For me it's got to be cinderella99, I grew myself with seeds off gipsy nirvana from nirvana seeds, mental it was loved it.

Lairukaj

Had a few, NY Diesel and Fruity Pebbles from Gray Area in Amsterdam back in 2016/17ish.

But about a year ago managed to get hold of Plum Mochi by Ted Budz, which ended up with me tripping over with a drink in my hand, laughing at myself uncontrollably. It was beautiful. I haven't been able to get my hands on it again since and it breaks my heart.

hoqwer

1995 Northern Lights
2023 FBC (from Druids Magic)

The two best strains/grows I’ve ever smoked. By far.

jbholmes22

Strawberry Jerry strain from Skookum Cannabis, BC, Canada hands down the best quality

PinkLeafFarmacy 9.8/10

Best joint I ever had was a Hawaiian Haze I had 10 years ago.
Since then, I had Doja Permanent Marker which I thought was substantial last year.
My staples are Z, Cheese and I’m a sucker for an Orangey terp.

RDon21

Flowerbomb kush from the greenhouse Amsterdam in the late 2000’s I think it was Green crack x OG kush

blackdragon00

Mine is probably some jungle cake, Mac or boss og, all of them I got from here. Such great strains. Even chemdawg and uk cheese are up there too.

thatguyforbud 8.5/10

2018 Cali X Zkittlez, nothing else has ever came near and I wish I kept more for myself

Aristophanes

Biggest hit I ever had was with hash - nepalese temple ball in around 1979.

I'd love to meet that again, might have been laced with opium.

Sorry its not weed.

Dmicatmttl

The best strain I've ever smoked was Skywalker OG about 5 years ago. It was my first time smoking a strain I knew the name of and it was every bit as good as I thought it would be. I wish I could go back and get Zs off them

Shananda

It's a toss up between bubba kush and amnesia haze for me. Had some bubba for the first time a few months back and it was a gorgeous body high. Delicious body rushes from it. Bought some again recently but doesn't have the same quality of effects unfortunately. Maybe because of different phenotypes 🤷🏻‍♂️.
Amnesia haze almost always gets me to a place of euphoria that's unmatched by other strains. Would love to find a strain that's more euphoric but out of the roughly 20 strains I've tried so far nothing has been more uplifting than ami.

Lee5

As far as dominant sativa’s goes,I’ve always had a smile when bopping home with a bit of Amnesia in my sky.

Onkey

buyed some weed in the dam in 2009 ish that made me space out totally, was strongest stone ever. i felt like i was on a different planet. was fun but a bit scary. cant remember the name but was sooooo strong i just walked around in circles for hours
bulldogs gorilla zkitles also strong but not quite as heavy as the dam stuff. down to my last gram or two wish i had more.

Johnnyh2

Republic_Of_Bud 9.9/10

Cali Yellow Zushi 🤤

Amsterdamned

I'd go with either MAC by citizen stash or wedding crasher by BLKMRT both outstanding. I also had a bit of alien sin mint cookies by BLKT, I kid you not the bud was bluish instead of purple, all these strains were from a couple years ago when I was living in Canada.

MrChuff

Gotta be some LA Confidental I got from Dam, Grey Area back in 2010 now 😫 and Chocolope when I saw it.
as of recently Sassy (LB) with Eleven Roses that was nice.
I think a lot of these newer strains get abit lost/too mixed

quiet guy

Liberty Haze for the effects
Sour Diesel for the taste

Smoking weed in a flat

As others have said. Best solution is what growers do and suck the air through a carbon filter. Rhino make great filters. You’ll need a fan and filt…

Smoking weed in a flat

Ok I’ll try and cut a long story short. I’ve been living in a semi detached house for about 6 years. I’m a daily smoker, I’m disabled and I have been using weed to manage my pain for about the past ten years. I have never had an issue with any neighbours complaining or anything like that. Recently my landlord sold my house and I was served an eviction notice and due to my disability the council agreed to house me and got me a flat in my local area. I have never lived in a flat before and I’m quite worried about the neighbours complaining about me smoking weed. ( they are mostly elderly and disabled people) my local housing authority that has housed me has a zero tolerance policy about any drug use and I really don’t want any complaints against me. I have switched to vapes for the time being to reduce the smell. but I really prefer joints and it doesn’t feel the same to me. I usually smoke just pure flower joints. Does anyone have any recommendations or suggestions? Am I just being paranoid? Any advice is welcome thank you biggas ❤️

oblong89

I had the same problem mate. I tried a prescription but the costs were ridiculous and i cancelled after a couple of months

that being said it did provide documentation stating i was legally permitted to use cannabis.

I sent the details to tower hamlets housing, and actually just told my neighbours i had a prescription, and just never told them when i cancelled it.

If you’re proactive about it there’s little they can do.

I still smoke a bong in the flat from time to time, but mostly use a dry herb vape with the window open and there are no issues with smell.

Best of luck! Remember the system is wrong, not you!

The Great Vape Company 9.8/10

Hello there,

If it hasn't been mentioned already, try to get a script. There are plenty of places about that would help you, generally for a £50 or so consultation fee. They will assess your need, these weed places have their own doctors so it will probs be a video call. If you get accepted, buy some weed off them so you get a bag with a prescription stuck to it... Then I guess you refil the bag with whatever you want. One place that springs to mind is curaleaf

PabloEscrowbar 9.7/10

Get a filter that sucks up all the air in the room and an outlet pipe which connects or hangs off your window so the air that gets sucked from the inside get pulls straight out the gaff!

Your welcome

Chasin'Orange

Hi, apologies if this is an old post. I'm in a similar situation.

A few months back I bought a purifier listed on Amazon as 'PureMate Smart Air Purifier with Ioniser mode, Air Quality Monitor, Display Off, Air Filter', cost about £120 with extra filters being £25ish, I think. That made a big difference though it's already not as good as it was when I first had it - it maybe just needs a new filter (or the old one hoovering!) There are smaller, cheaper versions but I can't comment on how good they are. I got one after seeing a similar post from bigga BBDoom. You probably don't need one with the ioniser or UV light, etc, they don't seem to make much difference? It makes a big difference to have it running while smoking but it's definitely not as 'quiet' as advertised - it also helps (to a lesser extent) if you just run it for a couple of hours after you've gone to bed.

Another thing that might help is to get yourself a good oil diffuser and have a few drops of oil in it that'll help mask the smell - PurEssential makes an oil that helps with smoke odours, and there are similar room sprays that supposedly do the same thing. Lots of stuff online about different diffuser oils that can help to hide smoke smells, etc. In my experience, people notice how 'nice' the room smells rather than anything else 😉😂. We've come a long way from burning some stinky incense (often bad for your breathing) and thinking it does anything other than obviously highlighting that you're trying to cover up a weed smell! Ahhh, the ignorance of my teenage youth! 😂

I've also seen some good smell-proof bags recently (but can't remember what they're called), everything from pencil case to rucksack size - available from Amazon (though I'd caution about having weed-related items in your Amazon history). They'll help reduce the smell if you can be arsed to keep taking everything in and out of it.

Finally, regardless of how 'clear' you think your room smells, get a non-smoking friend in to give you their opinion! You just don't notice the smell as much in your own home if you're constantly around it.

Please let us know if you find something that works well for you. Good luck! 👍

PabloEscrowbar 9.7/10

Diffusers whilst smoking will really mess up the air quality, you will have bud smell mixed with lovely oils which will really stench up a place. Your best bet is the filter which sucks the air with the duct connected to your window as the outlet(air output)… Do this and thank me later!

Chasin'Orange

Yep, I didn't mean smoking whilst the diffuser's running - I run the purifier whilst (or after) smoking, and run the diffuser when not smoking (overnight or in the morning). Thanks for the clarification PE 👍. I'm interested in a filter ducting out the window but, when I see that, I always assume there's a grow happening, and I'd be worried that others would think the same.
If people have a similar setup for non-weed reasons, what is it actually for (ie what would you say it's for if someone asked)? I'd be very interested in this if I could see a setup that didn't look dodgy - is there anything you can link to I can have a look at? Appreciated, cheers 👍

Harryhogan

A fan and filter setup would work best. You can sit it on a table and use it without ducting if need be, on a recycle mode if you will. Any smoke/air going through will get treated. Added bonus, all smoke/air will gravitate towards the filter, so none escapes out the door.

Chasin'Orange

Thanks for replying, Harry 👍. Do you know if there's anything good that runs quietly? If you can recommend anything or link to something I'd really appreciate it. Cheers 👍

JamesM83

Look up carbon filters its just the same fan and filter you use in a grow,id suggest rhino carbon.filter there good and diff sizes,the smell sticks to the carbon and they do work mate

Chasin'Orange

Cheers James 👍 Others have recommended Rhino products too. They're a bit pricey for me atm but it looks like they're the way to go. Thanks 👍

Nesto420

Not an expert on this subject but I would suggest getting a medical prescription, not for the access to flower etc but more just as some form of protection from draconian council policies. Looks quite bad on them evicting someone who has a legitimate medical reason to use

cheeching

There are things you can try but nothing smells more than a joint unfortunately. You could try a sploofy, or get a fan and cover it with those scented dry cleaner sheets, or a combo. Better yet might be to consider using you favourite weed in some brownies. But I agree with nesto that if you have some kind of medical note/ prescription that might cover you. Otherwise pray for windy rainy nights where you can smoke it out of your window. I moved to vaping a while back, ULC and dr Terpy are good for distillate, and people who vape swear by live resin vapes, they cost a little more but the high on those is supposedly closer to a joint high, try sensi-mart for that perhaps, people love their live resin stuff. One day I will try this myself no doubt

ediblehunt

In my experience, if you're smoking inside regularly somebody is bound to complain sooner or later. You'd be better off switching to dry herb vaping, what one did you buy? I could never get into it until I bought a high-end vape, took a week or so to get used to it but since then I haven't smoked in years. Far, far stealthier.

Chasin'Orange

Looking at Rhino products now. Thanks for naming a company 👍

axis_of_elvis

carbon filter and fan , you can get fans that are voltage controlled so it will be more quiet, i run a mini 6inch in my smoke room, was better with the larger one but next door is a weed farm so i can slack off

Babbstar1 9.9/10

Second this.

Lee5

Plug in ozone generator left on timer near front door is a great last line of protection. Yes,I know they aren’t great for your health,but so is being homeless.

I’m suprised how few people are aware of these bits of kit.
You can even get them for your car.
They are super effective and start at £20.

leah123456789

Hey, id reccommend getting a weed vaporiser

Redeyejedi25

I used to be in a very similar situation.

I bought an air purifyer and an activated carbon air filter, about £150 all in.

I can smoke a joint in my living room with both of these on and the smell is gone in half an hour and nobody outside knows any better

syjefroi181

Moving it stressful as balls, so we completely understand where you are coming from. In my experience, so long as you aren't a neighbour from hell, most people probably won't care. I live in a shitty flat, and you are very much at the mercy of your immediate neighbours. You might find a single-dweller (who doesn't generally disturb the peace) gets a lot of leeway.

Besides, even if they did complain, the council likely has better things to worry about. I'm not saying the risk isn't there, but moreso that the gaps between 'neighbour disapproves', 'neighbour complains', and 'you get turfed out' are bigger than they seem.

The one thing that might tick them off is if you stink out the place. So, as already said here, odor absorbers/removers could give you some peace of mind.

MightyRux

So, smell reduction. Maybe block the bottom of the external flat door, and also the door of the room you smoke in to prevent random diffusion.

Currently I'm using a Levoit Core 300S air purifier and that thing is being worked ludicrously hard. Seems to work at minimising odor along with copious sprays of Febreeze (those cans don't last long!), but there's still a residual smell that you'd have to sort out if people who didn't like that smell called over.

The company that Chasin'Orange mentioned but couldn't remember is Stashic. Also available from them, and from other retailers than the ubiquitous one. The rucksack is very roomy, but I haven't tested it in the wild for its odor dampening qualities.

Chasin'Orange

'Stashic' is the company I meant, thank you MightyRux 👍. I did also see versions without their logo on it that looked exactly the same so, with the Stashic, you might just be paying extra for their logo, I don't know. And I totally agree RE blocking the bottom of doors 👍.

Asaddd

When I used to smoke js the smoke buddy made a big difference

https://www.amazon.co.uk/Smoke-Buddy-0159-WHT-Personal-smokebuddy/dp/B00W7WRDFO/ref=mp_s_a_1_6?adgrpid=118548206140&dib=eyJ2IjoiMSJ9.WakUZljUxFx2iwK5OAi2d3nFuRkiYWZmEbVZ4a5vYzoULrubUqppg2ZXxkmMsP64sLVM7Uuf4i-fxB15d_rjKbawOECxbf4ePMQqOt90F1mpapZ0mc4WfAWYnqisGvCMUjxsnGi4s-v9jPXPGmFTBEAMiBGaCdQMcjTzxmaPwpSECi-_Uyxys73hglEtjH9nvisMA1TFAefa4xwr_ZkAcw.OCC82Zee0fQTD57ADFy5UakF8McrWK7b7qEP5aVBRGU&dib_tag=se&hvadid=593715444196&hvdev=m&hvlocphy=9045819&hvnetw=g&hvqmt=e&hvrand=2404179352707085790&hvtargid=kwd-302014556158&hydadcr=26198_2651726&keywords=smoke+buddy&qid=1711112961&sr=8-6

Good recommendation with the Smoke Buddy as a quick fix
Just be prepared for the yellow nicotine stain around your lips after a long session 😮‍💨
I’ll add, my neighbours hate me .. even more so when summer arrives ☀️ 😂 good luck🍻

Cool tube? What's is this 2001? Man said he's using a mars so that's gonna be a LED panel. If a carbon filter not working for you, you're defo doing…

on {cannabis growing}

3rd attempt Growing advice

Recommendations for cheap grow tent/compete set up ,I recently got a ts3000 450watt from Mars hydro, I’ve tried to grow a few times but It seem to end up with mold in late flower so I was thinking of some kind of air exhaust/carbon filter also too regulate the humidity?

Stusleeper20vt

There is no such thing as a cheap set up mate.
Buy cheap buy twice!!
There is an awfull lot more to growing than throwing a light over them in a cheap tent!
An extraction set up is manditory really,for numerous reasons...First and foremost is to make the whole grow odourless to the outside world!! Secondary is to keep the relative humidity below 50% in late flower to avoid your beloved crop turning to grey mold before your eyes.
I suggest joining a forum and posting your grow up.uk 420 maybe? Lots of experienced growers on there will help you have a successfull harvest.

Backwoods1999

Have you got any recommendations for an exhaust system for a 5x5? I’m going to check out that website after I’m home for work thanks !

Apexskunk2

What else do you have e in your grow kit?

You got a meter that measures temp and humidity. I’d hazard a guess this is the issue.

You can grow without and exhaust fan, I had several crops fine but as stated will stink without a carbon filter, mainly in flowering near end tbh.

However with a fresh air intake at bottom of tent and hot exhaust extraction at top you will get better results.

You can couple the exhaust fan to a temp controller too, I found this would help regulate at night in cold winters.

I managed to sort a whole carbon exhaust and smaller intake with fans and tubing for under 100 quid.

Make sure you got a little circulation fan in tent too, plants will love you for that addition

Backwoods1999

That’s all I kinda just winged the first 3 times but this time I got a decent light and tent so wanted to know what else to buy to make it all go perfect this time 🤷‍♂️, yeah my problem was definitely humidity and heat. Luckily for me smell isn’t really a issue I’ve found so far

Apexskunk2

Smell not an issue in terms of Random’s smelling or your skunk ain’t hit that overwhelming stench 😂

Avoid all in one deals, usually can get cheaper.

Amazon delivered most my stuff including soil lol a bit bait I know but did for years 😂

If growing in soil get ph meter you stick in, can get ones that switch between a few things including ph and wetness - 10 quid or so

Humidity meter / temp - 5 quid

Cheap tent - varies on brand and size - I’d go biggest you can first rather than neeeding to upgrade when you grow monsters lol

clip on fan for inside tent to circulate air (one that can oscillate) 10-30 quid

Key things you need to manage are:

Temps / humidity
Water
Air

Temps - can’t stress this enough!!! Dropping a couple of degrees is fine at night but big spikes will stress you babies

I believe leds ain’t as hot as I used to run hps.

The ONLY reason I had extractors was to manage temp via controller AND smell when peak flowering!!!!

You can get away with opening flaps and fan inside but I’d crack a window for some fresh oxygen.

You can go deep into more automation, nutrients and all that shit later mate.

sydbarrett

I have heard that too powerful an LED for your space can have a negative impact.

Lee5

No ones mentioned pot choice. It does matter.
I used Airpots-⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️.
But messy to water with,but because they have holes in,you can get air to those roots—-I completely by accident ended up blasting the roots with winter uk temps (jan/feb) and the results we’re spectacular.
If I remember right I got 30 oz from a single 600w bulb.!!
Ak48-will never forget.

Good luck

Keep It Green 9.8/10

Tell us more.......

Grow space size?
How many plants?
House/flat??

Too many question

start with good cuttings

Backwoods1999

Hey 5x5 tent , 3-5 auto flowers I have seeds though not cutting, I’m growing the top back of my house

leeroy79

All good advice above...

If you don't get your environment right...you will always struggle...air flow and extraction are a must imo!

Good luck!

Apexskunk2

If you’ve built a pc, try emulate a tower that has bottom / front intakes - exhaust out your top and back.

If really wanting good intakes - get smaller in-line fan and flexi trunking and seal this to window.

In winter i used to run my spent exhaust gas through the door on the room and into the house.

Saved on heating through winter 😂

Also remember air flow drops drastically with frequency of turns and harsh bends!!!

sydbarrett

PC fans are also surprisingly powerful. I used to use them in my fermentation fridge when making beer.

burr77

Environment is Number one.

Get yourself a hygrometer with min and max facility on it and you'll know what is happening in the tent when you're not around.

With LED's you want about 27c lights on, and no lower than 22 with the lights off. While they are still Vegging, humidity should be around 70% but when in flower you should be aiming for 50%. Probably a tenner from amazon.

You need an extractor fan, probably about a 150mm for a small tent, but this needs to be wired into a fan controller such as an SMS, which will regulate the fan speed depending on what temp is in your tent. When it gets hot, the fan speeds up, and when the desired temp ir reached, it turns itself back down to the minimum. One end of the fan should have a carbon filter on it to hide the smell as best it can and the other end should be vented out of the tent. Not only does this control temps but it also draws in fresh CO2 which is essential to growth.

Next you need a heater of some kind for when the light is off or its particularly cold. Oil filled rads work best. Again, you need a controller for the heater to turn itself off and on as required. G.A.S make a pretty good heater controller for about 50 quid.

These are the most important steps. You could have the best cuttings or seeds in the world, but if your environment is not right, they'll still come out shit.

Search google for Growell or greens horticulture. They do all the bits youll need

Eddys Hashbar 9.8/10

PM me dude might have what you need 😉

Lee5

If mild is your main issue then you’re not moving enough air out.
This is paramount to keeping the moisture under the required amount.
Get a built in sensor that you can monitor with.
Maybe don’t water til run off when plants get bigger? Just add a bit at a time?

You need a good exhaust system (air out) and your game will change,I’m sure of it.

You won’t have to spend more than £70 for a brilliant extraction unit. And don’t forget about the ‘last line of defence’——the inline ozone attached to that exhaust. ABSOLUTE zero smell leaving your gaff. This is the most important purchase my friend.

Definitely join the forums,
So much advise there.
🫡

Zoran

Number one piece of advice before seeds, tents, lights, extractors, nutes:

Get a decent air intake ie. cool, fresh air being drawn in from outside. You'll need to drill / bore a hole. Drill 2 holes, side by side and extract your air from the other. The cool air intake should preferably lay close to the floor so that it circulates around and then upwards. Invest in an adjustable fan - that way you can keep temps within the ideal range, even with hot lamps.

sydbarrett

Listen to The Breeder’s Syndicate podcast.

Literally. And I mean literally. Everything you’ll ever need to know about growing. And a load of stuff you probably don’t need to know, and will be glad you did. Direct from both pros and amateurs. OGs and new growers alike.

Some fascinating stuff about hash and rosin making too.

I don’t grow. Still love listening to experts who do, talking about it. It’s fascinating learning all about all the original phenos direct from the people who grew them, year in, year out.

I’ve only grown once, as much to see if I could do it as anything else (cost/effort wise, it’s debatable how much benefit you ultimately get with a small grow, but I enjoyed it). As others have said, air flow and temperature were key things for me. And you also mentioned the smell not being an issue. This is interesting, because—done right—it’s going to smell *really* strong. So that filter is a must. I used a Black Orchid (100 mm) extractor fan and a 4inch filter made by a company called Ram. And make sure you’re taking care of them when they’re getting started (I read up on topping and pruning, and it really helped to establish sturdy/healthy plants). Good luck!

I would say also research different strains. Some are more resistant to mold than others.
I used to grow auto flowers and found the ones with a short flowering time like the F1 were far more susceptible to mold.

You can try with a carbon filter but I wouldn't bother, never found one that works. But yes you do need suck all that hot air out of the tent - not push - put the exhaust fan at the exit point within the tent and the other end attach to your light fitting - get a cool tube. And get the most powerful fan you can because you want a powerful suck so that the walls of the tent get sucked inwards, like the opposite of a bouncy castle - this creates the perfect grow environment as well as a few side effects such as killing bugs, they can't live in a negative pressure which is what inside your tent will be if you have the walls going inwards and you shouldn't get any mould. BUT... you still need to move the air around inside the tent and have good air flow over your crop - this will help strengthen the branches and also eliminate mould, end of. To do this get 2 oscillating desk fans and 2 bits of 50cm long bit of timber - turn the fans upside down and unscrew the bottom, screw that to the bit of timber then screw the bottom with the timber attached back on to the fan. Then screw a hole at each end of the timber and get some wire - each fan will be in opposite corners upside down with the wire tied to the top poles of the tent, get them right back in the corner and on oscillate - now buy a timer and plug them both in, put the timer on random times eg 1 hour on, 15mins off, 30mins on, 45mins off, 15 mins on etc for the full 24 hours. This will give you max yields for all the reasons I have mentioned and more. Best of luck.

Yes moulding in flower is too much humidity/bad air flow.

Couldn’t agree more with everyone! They need to be taken care of like babies ;) Fresh air is difficult especially in winter and humidity when we use heating and all the rain has definitely made us seen a difference and we had to exercise more control. There’s some really top dehumidifiers out there bud but as everyone said spend the money and you won’t regret it as the yield will pay it all off in no time

Backwoods1999

Have you you got any equipment you could recommend ? This all sound like so much effort but I really need to I spend over 1k a month on weed 😂 just wish I lived somewhere I could just plant and leave it to grow 🥲🥲

What’s your area size?

2nd hand Grow equipment goes for buttons on eBay compared with RRP.

Don’t use a 2nd hand filter, buy a good one, mountainair and carabo are very good.
Don’t use a box fan, use a cylinder style one - iso max, cannQ etc

Cheers!

decsman

Its been a few years since i have been but the best shops last time were MrK&co and family first and also I had a great time in Reefer - they had some fire dutch and import. for me its more about the atmosphere - I am a chilled stoner and cant stand the ultra busy and loud shops.

TheWeedologist

The Grey Area

Cley1

Rookies, Get down to it and het ballonnetje are always firm favourites when I’m in town.

Blazin_Esx

Het Ballonnetje is a great shout, underrated coffeeshop.

Blazin_Esx

Katsu, Mr K, Family First, Bagheera, Bluebird. That's probably my current top 5. I was last there in December.

Ploop

Never tried any of them before, thanks mate!

BF488

Coffeeshop Solo, Dampkring and Katsu.

Blazin_Esx

Solo is great, cheapest Sunset Sherbet in Amsterdam on my last trip, great quality too.

BF488

Probably my favourite Coffeeshop if I had to choose one. You can always rely on Solo’s quality, especially their hash.

mattcho

I love 1eHulp, for quality of product and a nice place too, a bit of a walk out of the centre but worth it

HarryWarry

1eHulp ('First Aid') is a great choice, and not the only good reason for walking out of the centre, it's in a cool part of town. All the best bits of the Dam lie beyond the Prinsengracht. Flower Power round the corner on the Rozengracht is my fave, I discovered Manala Cream in there. Yum!

qwerty44

Haven’t been for a while but bush doctor used to have great products and a nice outdoor space.

Gunitbiggy 10/10

Bush doctor was always my goto. Early 2000s tried nyc sour diesel there for the first time. Great coffee shop

Gunitbiggy 10/10

Bush doctor was family firsts dad I believe. See family first on fsotd podcast mention it

Toking

The plug.

Thedroog

Ah used to love the Future and Fancy Free but alas they are both gone, Prix D'Ami purely for the fact you can score a smoke and then shoot some pool

Jimmy Boco

Loved Prix D’Ami, pitch black other than pool table lights and the occasional glow of a toke.

Pukoman

It's been a least 12 years since I've been, homegrown fantasy was always a favourite,abraxas,grey area and Barney's,la cana pool hall was always a good shout.

Mgreatwhite

I always used to love the Bluebird but haven't been for 30 years. Nice to see it's still going.

blazer0402

been twice this year, babas coffee shop was my personal favourite, good price dutch, great seating and a ball vape ready for you to use if you would like at no extra cost. It’s not in central (15 min bus from station) but i also absolutely love basjoes if you’re lucky enough to sit in the booth.

MrChuff

I like to buy my stuff in the popular ones (Terps army, Family first,grey area ect) then sit in the less popular/places & you can get food in some. Like hillstreetbooze. Bulldog lounge, La grotte. This is a great method tried and tested there’s a few others but I can’t remember the names ect.

Johnydosco
