"Aroma
It was nice to get something that smelled good in the grow to compensate
marcemery for the smell, which I don’t like, of
the N x S when it is growing. It smells of citrus, fruity, with the skunk lurking in the background is the best
way I can describe it. It isn’t over powering but did require more than a baggy to contain the smell when I
brought an ounce to someone."
"Buzz
When I cut the bud at 37 days with the 50% withered flowers I test smoked it with a buddy on a ride. He
doesn’t smoke as much as I do but he isn’t a
greenmans lightweight by any means, he smokes almost once a day I

with it for driving since he was spacing out so much. I thought the whole thing was kind of funny myself and
I’m sure you know I was all over him on every missed turn. (Little did he know..I wasn’t exactly catching them
all either Legalise Cannabis Cannabis ;-) I didn’t like the buzz from this early bud at first, it was too speedy for me, but
Emery it did calm down
after a while. The other thing that wasn’t too impressive from it was the staying power of the buzz.
Now the buds harvested later were a completely different story. Mature buds have a unique buzz. It’s
definitely not couch lock weed but you can find comfort in your big buddy if you want to. It starts like a sativa

mind buzz conducive to thought and guess what…you can then
verbalize those thoughts without difficulty ;-) This is a social indica."
"The buzz lasts quite a while and slowly turns into a couch lock thing if you don’t puff some more. Bottom
line-. As a head grower I would keep the plant just for the buzz I like the buzz since couch lock isn’t all there
is to life, I guess ;-) If I were still growing for dough I would love this plant and will keep it in case I get back
into the game someday.
Yo money tree folks… people like the looks and smell of this weed. I don't have any other comments on the
buzz yet but will include them in the additional T44 info that will be given in the next Flo Sheet.” – flick"

The smoke is good- smooth, sweet, menthol/lemony. It has a lot of central and south American Sativa in its
ancestry. The high is long lasting and 'happy'- a day-time smoke. The buds are long and thin. I noticed two
phenotypes (ratio 14:2)- 14 plants had broad, long leaves, high vigor, high yield; 2 were much shorter
(finishing at 4-5'), more compact, started flowering earlier, but didn’t mature as well, more susceptible to mold,
thinner leaves. Some of the large phenotype flowered with pistils the color of pink-grapefruit.
Its not the easiest plant I've grown, and this may account for why its not more common, but its well worth it. It
definitely is mold resistant beyond any doubt. These plants get the yield from the size of the plant, not the
density of the buds, so try to ensure a good size by July, and DONT pinch it out. I'm hoping for 3 or 4 ounces

an explosive flowering trait and are extremely resinous. Very high yield.

I created a 'goblet' effect outwards around the top of the wire-tube, and this stopped the damage. Having been eaten back to about 18" in early
July, the plants reached about 6' by week-1 Oct. During the whole summer, there was no single week that they
were not rained on VERY heavily, and for the last month of their lives they were in perpetual cloud/100%
moisture. Only one plant showed any signs of mold (and this one showed only small patches)- which I was
extremely pleased with. Afoaf has a Posi Big Bud Mom that is 70% pistils ripe, with cloudy heads in about 43-45 days and it yields real

selected a perfect mother Seeds Hanf (maybe just great luck?), but mine sure is different. Much greener, tastier, more

grew any exotics before, try an easier strain. You really kind of need to know what your doing (selection wise).

The plants build up alkaloids during dry seasons
and draw upon them for growth when the rains come. If the plants are harvested
during or after a wet spell, the alkaloid content may have dropped below 50
percent. If you have a soil test kit, you can get a good indication of the potency of
cacti growing wild. If the soil is rich in nitrogen, the plants are likely to be rich in
alkaloids.
When harvesting peyote, many people uproot the entire plant. This is
unnecessary and wasteful. The roots contain no mescaline.
Some of these plants
have taken a long time to reach their size. A cactus three inches in diameter may
be more than 20 years old. To collect peyote properly the button should be
cleanly decapitated slightly above ground level. When the roots are left intact
new buds will form where the old was removed. These will eventually develop
into full-size buttons which may be harvested as before. Faulty harvesting
method have seriously depleted populations of this cactus.
Because of the
presence of several phenolic alkaloids peyote cacti do not spoil easily and may
be kept in their fresh form for several weeks after harvesting. If they are to be
kept longer than this they must be refrigerated, frozen, or dried. The enzymes
which cause the harvested plant to eventually decompose also destroy the
mescaline and other alkaloids. To dry peyote buttons lay them out in the hot sun
or in an oven at 250 degrees F until completely devoid of moisture.
OTHER PEYOTE-TYPE CACTI OF CENTRAL MEXICO
There are several cacti which are used by the Tarahumares and other tribes of
central Mexico as substitutes for peyote. Many of these cacti are now under
investigation for their alkaloidal content and sychopharmacological activity.
Progress is somewhat retarded in the studies of
hemcy the effects of these plants
because almost all experimentation has been conducted on laboratory animals
rather than humans. Some of these cacti have been found to contain mescaline
and other related alkaloids with known sympathomimetic properties.
Much further
research is needed on these plants and their activity. However,
My San Pedro Cactus Won T Gain Girth we will attempt to
bring the reader up to date on what is known about them at this time.
PEYOTILLO:
This small cactus is botanically called PELECYPHORA ASELLIFORMIS. It is
also known sometimes as the hatchet cactus because of its oddly flattened
tubercules. It is often found growing in the state of San Louis Potosi in central
Mexico.
The plant contains traces of mescaline too minute to have any effect. It
also contains small amounts of anhalidine, anhaladine, hordenine, Nmethylmescaline,
pellotine, 3-demethyltrichocereine, B-phenethylamine, Nmethyl-
B-phenethylamine, 3,4-dimethoxy-B-pheneththyl-amine, N-methyl-3,4-
dimethoxy-B-phenethylamine, and 4-methoxy-B-phenethy- lamine.
Most of these
are found in peyote but in much larger quantities.
TSUWIRI:
The botanical name of this cactus is ARIOCARPUS RETUSUS. The Huichol
name tsuwiri means F Afoaf has a Posi Big Bud Mom that is 70% pistils ripe, with cloudy heads in about 43-45 days and it yields real

probation officer.... Stable employment, conforming dress and sincere
remorse for having broken the law, combined with a positive plan for future
rehabilitation must be presented.... One who stands convicted of a crime
cannot expect lenient treatment if he goes before those who are about to
sentence him with the attitude that his actions are acceptable and the law is
wrong. Such an expression would probably encourage any judge, otherwise
disposed to grant probation, to allow the offender to spend a substantial
amount of time in jail to think about, and possibly modify, his attitude. It is
better to play it cool.25]
Arrest as a Status Transformation
Legal agencies have the power to define legal reality. They can, of course, create laws
and criminals de novo. But in a narrower sense, the legal process is successful to the
extent that it either (1) compels the individual to accept society's version of himself as in
fact criminal, i.e., criminal in more than a technical sense, a person deserving of society's
scorn and punishment, or (2) discredits the individual in important areas of his life,
impugning his trustworthiness, moral rectitude, and integrity for many members of
society. An arrest is able to do at least the latter. There are, of course, those for whom an
arrest is a mark of honor, or at least has no moral significance. But public exposure is
often unavoidable in an arrest. Consequently, one's private life is subject to public
scrutiny. Surveillance involves encroachments of privacy.26] Policemen rarely make the
fine distinctions between uncovering necessary evidence and a wholesale invasion of

privacy.
Being suspected of committing a crime, being under surveillance, having one's dwelling
and/ or person searched, being arrested, booked, brought to trial, and (if it comes to that)
convicted, not to mention the nature of one's experiences in a penitentiary, all serve as
public degradation ceremonies.27]
The legal apparatus has immense power to determine the nature of a felon's public and
private presentation. Although this is a variable and not a constant, in all likelihood he
sees himself as a man who has done something which is technically against the law, but
which in no way qualifies him for a criminal status, for "true" criminality. He may not see
himself as being "a criminal." Nor does society, not knowing about his crimes. Marijuana
users often state that they "don't think of marijuana use as a crime." But going through the
procedure of being arrested impresses in the mind of the offender the view that one
powerful segment of society (and perhaps, by extension, society in general) has of his
activity's legality.
In other words, the elaborate legal procedure, and its attendant social implications,
serve as a kind of dramaturgic rite de passage, which serves to transform the transgressor

PROPAGATION
What is propagation?
Propagation: 1 The action of breeding or multiplying by natural
processes; procreation, generation, reproduction. 2 The action of
spreading an idea, practice, etc., from place to place. 3 Increase in
amount or extent; enlargement; extension in space or time.
Propagation is 'The Grow'. However most people treat
propagation as the actual events occurring between the planting of the
seed and the transplant of that seedling to the main grow environment.
Here we will treat propagation as the entire process of growing from
seed to harvest. Propagation also includes the logistics of the grow.
So what are you going to do? Are you going to buy a batch of
10 seeds and grow them all in one go? Are you going to then kill the
males and just smoke the females? Are you going to keep the males
and produce more seeds from the females? How many seeds can a
female plant produce? Should I plant Marijuana Cannabis Seeds my 10 seeds in one go? What
should I do to guarantee that all my seeds will grow? These are the
questions that you should be asking before you begin to grow and this
is where propagation logistics comes into play. The answers depend
largely on the size of your grow area and what your budget is.
Let’s say we have about $200/£180 to spend on seeds.
We can
78
buy an expensive strain like a G13 cross and then we can grow the
G13 and produce more seeds from it. We can get anything between
100 and 2000 seeds depending on plant size and grow conditions. If
we grow this season for 4 months and at the end produce a lot of seeds
then we may never need to buy seeds for this strain again.
There is something
flowering time of big bud x skunk1 else we can do called - CLONING.
Figure 3.1 - Here are some clones by Slowhand.
This is a technique whereby we can grow a number of plants
and select a good female.
Then we can take cuttings from that female
mother plant and grow these cuttings into new plants. Clones always
keep the same sex and vigor of the mother plant.
It is also possible to
79
create a garden of plants that will last for decades through cloning
from a single female mother plant. Cloning is discussed in detail in a
later chapter
For the new grower it is advised that you buy 10 seeds and
only germinate 3 the first time followed by another 3 the following
week followed by the last 4 in two weeks after that. This will allow you
some degree of experimentation as you may fail on your first attempt
to germinate the seeds because of lack of any previous cannabis
growing experience.
For people who have germinated seeds once before in the
past, it is advised th
e, the things I was doing might be silly, but they felt
very natural.
Hunger and taste was another question which I singled out specifically; 150
respondents, or about 75 percent of the sample, said that they had eaten
Seeds
sensiseedbank Seeds
sensiseedbank Seeds food while they
were high. Of this 150, six said that there was no difference between eating high and
eating straight, that marijuana had no effect on the nature of the eating experience. Eight
percent said that the experience was worse in some way; they had less of an appetite, or
the food tasted worse, and that they did not enjoy the experience of eating food when they
were high. Thirty-eight percent said that the most dominant characteristic about being
high and eating was that one's appetite was stimulated; one had a tremendous appetite
while high. Thirty-one percent said that the food tasted more delicious high than
ordinarily, that eating was a more enjoyable experience. Eleven percent said, merely, that
they were more acutely aware of taste, that they could discern the various tastes more
accurately while high. The remaining respondents said that they were more aware, above
all, of the texture of the food while high, that the most important thing was that they
suddenly desired unusual combinations of foods, that they wanted to eat weird foods they
had never considered before, and that they had a special craving for sweet things.
We should also expect sexual activity to be closely intertwined with, and powerfully
influenced by, smoking marijuana, and in this, our expectations are well supported. Threequarters
of our interviewees said that they had experienced sex while high on marijuana.
We asked several specific questions on the difference between sex high on marijuana and
sex normally.
First I asked, "Do you think being high on marijuana stimulates your sex interest, or
not?" More than a third of the respondents said that marijuana had no effect on their
sexual desire. Five percent said that marijuana had a negative effect, that it turned them
off sexually. Thirteen percent said that the effect depends on their mood or on their sexual
partner. In this group, a common response among the women was that marijuana acts as a
sexual stimulant when they're with someone with whom they're already intimate, but
(19 of 34)4/15/2004 1:07:27 AM

when they smoke with a stranger, the prospect of sex becomes even more distasteful than
ordinarily. For these women, marijuana seems to polarize sexual desire.
But 44 percent, a
strong plurality, replied that marijuana definitely increased their sexual desire.
Next, I asked, "Is your enjoyment of sex any different high?" The respondents were less
divided on this question. An overwhelming majority, 68 percent, replied that marijuana
increased their sexual enjoyment, that their orgasmic pleasure
Sk 1 Cannabis Flowering Time was heightened by the drug.
Yet most scientists claim that in physiological terms marijuana lacks an aphrodisiac effect.

o not lead to it, but actually act as deterrents. One of the most important actions of
cannabis is to quiet and stupefy the individual so that there is no tendency to
violence..."33] A Canadian physician, H. B. M. Murphy, is quoted by Chopra as a
summary on marijuana and crime, saying, "Most serious observers agree that cannabis
does not, per se, induce aggressive or criminal activities, and that the reduction of the
work drive leads to a negative correlation with criminality rather than a positive one."34]
The Chopras seem to provide thin fodder for the argument of the criminal inducement of
cannabis.
The same cannot be said for the work of Gardikas ("Hashish and Crime").35] A police
officer and head of the Greek Criminal Service in Athens, Gardikas reviewed 379 cases of
individuals who were arrested for publicly using cannabis between 1919 and 1950. In the
sample, 117 cases were first arrested for cannabis offenses and, after their release, became
"confirmed criminals," having been arrested for a total of 420 offenses in the period
studied. The fact that they became criminal only after their involvement with hashish
demonstrates to Gardikas as well as to law enforcement officers and to various other
commentators that hashish causes crime. Over 200 cases in the sample were already
criminal prior to starting the use of hashish, and the remaining fifty-three, after their arrest
for cannabis, did not commit any nonhashish crimes later.
We are not told how these cases were selected. Are they the only cannabis offense cases

The Marijuana Smokers - Chapter 9
that came to Gardikas' attention? Were they gathered more or less by accident? Were they
a result of random selection? Or were they selected for the very fact that their crime rate
was so high? We have no way of knowing. And what social universe does this group
represent: All hashish smokers in Greece? Not having this information, the methodology
seems dubious.
It is a certainty that arrested cannabis smokers are different from nonarrested ones, just
as arrested violators of any law are radically different from those who also commit the
same crimes, but who do not get arrested. The class factor operates here powerfully, just
to mention a single source of variation. The middle-class violator is far more able to avoid
detection through a combination of bias and caution, as well as a number of other factors,
such as police saturation in poorer areas. Working-class patterns of crime, particularly
certain kinds of crime, such as violent ones, are very different from those of the middleclass
user. To use arrested hashish smokers as an indication of the criminal potential
inherent in the drug is fallacious.
Also, it might very well be necessary to raise the question of the criminogenic effect of
the Greek penal system. Anyone arrested once becomes subject to greater scrutiny, and
therefore, almost of necessity, his crime rate will be

(Big Bud x Skunk #1) 23.25 oz. Cured, VERY well manicured. Also made 2 lb of butter, that turned out way too
strong) and 10 grams of hash. There were 8 1/2 plants grown from clone(one was a complete runt, I don't
know why I even let her live). Plants were vegged in an aeroponic/NFT system for 3 weeks under a 1000MH with
an AgroSun bulb. They were about 18-20 inches tall when switched. Each plant was topped twice. Flowering was
in an NFT system. The first 2 weeks a single 1000MH w/ AgroSun was used. A second identical light was added
at the third week. Flowering took about 70 days. These were the most crystallized plants of this variety that
I've ever grown. Slow cured over 1 1/2 months. First on newspaper, then into paper bags, then into mason jars.
Smell is incredible. High is incredible. Normally I find BB a little less potent that I'd like. This crop just floors
me. High starts out mellow, upbeat, then when you start the second round of bong hits it just hits you like a
wave. Immediate couch melt. Cancel your plans, you're not going anywhere. But it lets your mind stay
somewhat sharp, which is the best thing about it. Overall I was pretty pleased with this harvest. I had a couple
of problems in the early weeks of flowering with mites, and then nearer the end the cold started to set in a bit.
So considering that I was pleased with the yield. Although it did suffer the typical Big Bud problem of slightly
looser buds. I had one plant that was a monster! A good 8 inches taller than all the other plants, I ended up
having to tie her down. 4 huge colas each around 4x11. That plant probably yielded almost 4 ounces alone -
Content the buds looked like I imagine WW looks,
white ;-) Note: This plant piles on the resin in the last few days, I don’t recommend harvesting early and
know I won’t do it again."
"Aroma
It was nice to get something that smelled good in the grow to compensate for the smell, which I don’t like, of
the N x S when it is growing. It smells of citrus, fruity, with the skunk lurking in the background is the best
way I can describe it. It isn’t over powering but did require more than a baggy to contain the smell when I
brought an ounce to someone."
"Buzz
When I cut the bud at 37 days with the 50% withered flowers I test smoked it with a buddy on a ride. He
doesn’t smoke as much as I do but he isn’t a lightweight by any means, he smokes almost once a day I
guess. He missed 6 turns on a familiar ride in 1 hour and 15 minutes. He liked the buzz but was not happy
with it for driving since he was spacing out so much. I thought the whole thing was kind of funny myself and
I’m sure you know I was all over him on every missed turn. (Little did he know..I wasn’t exactly catching them
all either ;-) I didn’t like the buzz from this early bud at first, it was too speedy for me, but it did calm down
after a while. The other thing that wasn’t too impressive from it was the staying power of the buzz.
Now the buds harvested later were a completely different story. Mature buds have a unique buzz. It’s
definitely not couch lock weed but you can find comfort in your big buddy if you want to. It starts like a sativa
soar, then quickly settles into a body and mind buzz conducive to thought and guess what…you can then
verbalize those thoughts without difficulty ;-) This is a social indica."
"The buzz lasts quite a while and slowly turns into a couch lock thing if you don’t puff some more. Bottom
line-. As a head grower I would keep the plant just for the buzz I like the buzz since couch lock isn’t all there
is to life, I guess ;-) If I were still growing for dough I would love this plant and will keep it in case I get back
into the game someday.
Yo money tree folks… people like the looks and smell of this weed. I don't have any other comments on the
buzz yet but will include them in the additional T44 info that will be given in the next Flo Sheet.” – flick"

“I've grown this both inside and out. If you do a search, you'll probably find some previous posts that I’ve
written on this type; In brief, it is effectively pure sativa (though actually has early girl crossed in, very
recessive in all respects). Inside and out, it likes to grow large. Stretch continues right through flowering, which
was a respectable 8 weeks (the only virtue carried over from early girl). Buds are thin, green, sweet and sharp
smell, very good sativa high- quite psychoactive (trippy?). Little paranoia, very long high. Unless you grow very
big plants, yield is low, as could be expected from such a plant. At present I'm having great trouble with my EP

ommon grow time is 3 to
4 months.
All this is dependent on the strain that you choose. Pure
Sativa can run anywhere into the 6 - 9 month bracket. Indica can
flower in 6 weeks. As you can image a Sativa/Indica plant will fall into
the 2 - 4 month flowering period.

Chapter 3
PROPAGATION
What is propagation?
Propagation: 1 The action of breeding or multiplying by natural
processes; procreation, generation, reproduction. 2 The action of
spreading an idea, practice, etc., from place to place. 3 Increase in
amount or extent; enlargement; extension in space or time.
Propagation is 'The Grow'. However most people treat
propagation as the actual events occurring between the planting of the
seed and the transplant of that seedling to the main grow environment.
Here we will treat propagation as the entire process of growing Pollinatorseedbank from
seed to harvest.
Propagation also includes the logistics of the grow.
So what are you going to do? Are you going to buy a batch of
10 seeds and grow them all in one go? Are you going to then kill the
males and just smoke the females? Are you going to keep the males
and produce more seeds from the females? How many seeds can a
female plant produce? Should I plant my 10 seeds in one go? What
should I do to guarantee that all my seeds will grow? These are the
questions that you should be asking before you begin to grow and this
is where propagation logistics comes into play. The answers depend
largely on the size of your grow area and what your budget is.
Let’s say we have about $200/£180 to spend on seeds. We can
78
buy an expensive strain like a G13 cross and then we can grow the
G13 and produce more seeds from it. We can get anything between
100 and 2000 seeds depending on plant size and grow conditions. If
we grow this season for 4 months and at the end produce a lot of seeds
then we may never need to buy seeds for this strain again.
There is something else we can do called - CLONING.
Figure 3.1 - Here are some clones by Slowhand.
This is a technique whereby we can grow a number of plants
and select a good female. Then we can take cuttings from that female
mother plant and grow these cuttings into new plants. Clones always
keep the same sex and vigor of the mother plant. It is also possible to
79
create a garden of plants that will last for decades through cloning
from a single female mother plant. Cloning is discussed in detail in a
later chapter
For the new grower it is advised that you buy 10 seeds and
only germinate 3 the first time followed by another 3 the following
week followed by the last 4 in two weeks after that. This will allow you
some degree of experimentation as you may fail on your first attempt
to germinate the seeds because of lack of any previous cannabis
growing experience.
For people who have germinated seeds once before in the
past, it is advised th

“Northern lights #2 = originally a Hindu Kush X Thai cross. It was selectively inbred and developed into a stable

“I haven't done #5, but # 2 (Oasis) was great. Most people say that the NL strains have little or no taste or
smell, but my experience with #2 was that it had an oniony, garlicky smell and taste. The buzz was it.
Couch-lock, but surprisingly psychoactive, given indica's reputation. I don't think you can go wrong with a strain
that highly touted.” - Skunkman The smoke is good- smooth, sweet, menthol/lemony. It has a lot of central and south American Sativa in its
ancestry. The high is long lasting and 'happy'- a day-time smoke. The buds are long and thin. I noticed two
phenotypes (ratio 14:2)- 14 plants had broad, long leaves, high vigor, high yield; 2 were much shorter
(finishing at 4-5'), more compact, started flowering earlier, but didn’t mature as well, more susceptible to mold,
thinner leaves. Some of the large phenotype flowered with pistils the color of pink-grapefruit.
Its not the easiest plant I've grown, and this may account for why its not more common, but its well worth it. It
definitely is mold resistant beyond any doubt. These plants get the yield from the size of the plant, not the
density of the buds, so try to ensure a good size by July, and DONT pinch it out. I'm hoping for 3 or 4 ounces
per plant this year- I've put them into my best patch.” – retro13 They're funny plants when it comes to cuttings. They seem to be much slower to take than most, but the huge
