Turn Bad Weed Into Good Weed
Can you turn bad weed into good weed? Surprisingly enough, the
answer to this oft-asked inquiry is, yes! Like most other things in
life, the amount of good you are going to do relates directly to how
much effort you are going to put into it.
1. Take a quantity of grass and dampen it, place in a baggie or
another socially acceptable container, and store it in a dark,
dampish place for a couple of weeks (burying it also seems to work).
The grass will develop a mold which tastes a bit harsh, a and burns
a tiny bit funny, but does increase the potency.
2. Expose the grass to the high intensity light of a sunlamp for a
full day or so. Personally, I don't feel that this is worth the
effort, but if you just spent $400 of your friend's money for this
brick of super-Colombian, right-from-the-President's-personal-stash,
and it turns out to be Missouri weed, and you're packing your bags
to leave town before the people arrive for their shares, well, you
might at least try it. Can't hurt.
3. Take the undesirable portions of our stash (stems, seeds, weak
weed, worms, etc.) and place them in a covered pot, with enough
rubbing alcohol to cover everything.
Now CAREFULLY boil the mixture on an ELECTRIC stove or lab burner.
DO NOT USE GAS - the alcohol is too flammable. After 45 minutes of
heat, remove the pot and strain the solids out, SAVING THE ALCOHOL.
Now, repeat the process with the same residuals, but fresh alcohol.
When the second boil is over, remove the solids again, combine the
two quantities of alcohol and re-boil until you have a syrupy
mixture.
Now, this syrupy mixture will contain much of the THC formerly
hidden in the stems and such. One simply takes this syrup the
thoroughly combines it with the grass that one wishes to improve
upon.
Growing Marijuana Indoors
Grow marijuana
indoors and there are many advantages. Besides the apparent fact that
it is much harder to have your crop found, you can control the
ambient conditions just exactly as you want them and get a
guaranteed good plant.
Plants grown indoors will not appear the same as their outdoor
cousins. They will be scrawnier appearing with a weak stems and may
even require you to tie them to a growing post to remain upright,
BUT THEY WILL HAVE AS MUCH OR MORE RESIN!
If growing in a room, you should put tar paper on the floors and
then buy sterilized bags of soil form a nursery. You will need about
one cubic foot of soil for each plant.
The plants will need fresh air, so the room must be ventilated.
(however, the fresh air should contain NO TOBACCO smoke.)
At least eight hours of light a day must be provided. As you
increase the light, the plants grow faster and show more
females/less males. Sixteen hours of light per day seems to be the
best combination, beyond this makes little or no appreciable
difference in the plant quality. Another idea is to interrupt the
night cycle with about one hour of light. This gives you more
females.
The walls of your growing room should be painted white or covered
with aluminum foil to reflect the light.
The lights themselves can be either bulbs of fluorescent. Figure
about 75 watts per plant or one plant per two feet of fluorescent
tube. The fluorescents are the best, but do not use cool white
types. The light sources should be an average of twenty inches from
the plant and NEVER closer than 14 inches. They may be mounted on a
rack and moved every few days as the plants grow.
The very best light sources are those made by Sylvan and others
especially for growing plants (such as the go lug types).
How the Sunlight Effects Plant Growth
200 - 280 nm UVC ultraviolet range which is extremely harmful to plants because it is highly toxic.
280 - 315 nm Includes harmful UVB ultraviolet light which causes plants colors to fade.
315 - 380 nm Range of UVA ultraviolet light which is neither harmful nor beneficial to plant growth.
380 - 400 nm Start of visible light spectrum. Process of chlorophyll absorption begins. UV protected plastics ideally block out any light below this range.
400 - 520 nm This range includes violet, blue, and green bands. Peak absorption by chlorophyll occurs, and a strong influence on photosynthesis. (promotes vegetative growth)
520 - 610 nm This range includes the green, yellow, and orange bands and has less absorption by pigments.
610 - 720 nm This is the red band. Large amount of absorption by chlorophyll occurs, and most significant influence on photosynthesis. (promotes flowering and budding)
720 - 1000 nm There is little absorption by chlorophyll here. Flowering and germination is influenced. At the high end of the band is infrared, which is heat.
1000+ nm
