Strain of the month – CHOCOLOPE!…

March 24, 2017August 5, 2017 / Scott

We try to add new strains on a regular basis so that we’ll have the largest possible variety of medicine and clones for the good people here in Maine and one strain that we’ve added (and harvested for the first time) is Chocolope from DNA Genetics.

Usually when we add a new strain we’re happy because we got what we expected, but in the case of Chocolope we got sooooo much more!

When we harvest any new strain for the first time we provide it to our human “testers” first (because there’s more than THC to test), to make sure we have something worth while before we make it “public” and here is what our testers had to say:

Pete – “That Chocolope might be the best I’ve ever had. Very smooth and extremely potent. Absolutely loved it, thanks!”

Meg – “Chocolope has now one of my two favorite strains. The sativa properties really shine, I was energetic with a slight euphoria. It’s clear-headed high is the perfect cannabis experience that will let you get stuff done.”

Tyler – “sorry, I would have texted you sooner but I was enjoying the high, REALLY good stuff!” (gotta love Tyler)

There you have it, the experts have spoken.

All of these images are our own and as you can see Chocolope is covered in crystals, it will be a regular in our grow rooms and in jars moving forward because it’s a very good producer in both quality, quantity* and as you read, a real people pleaser too.

While in flower, if you touch this bad girl you’ll find some sticky resin on your hand and it will take mechanics soap to get off! (I’m not complaining!)

It just doesn’t get any better than that.

Here’s some under the hood information:

Genetics : O.G Chocolate Thai x Cannalopehaze
Flowering Time : 70-84 Days
Type : 100% Sativa
Area : Indoor and Outdoor
Height: Medium to Tall

So head over to DNA Genetics and check out Chocolope for yourself.

Using a Root Pouch in Hydroponics…

March 22, 2017August 5, 2017 / Scott

As you know we are big fans of the Root Pouch, we use them for all our marijuana plants (clones, teenagers and moms) and folks will often ask us about using them in hydroponics and of course our response is “yes you can and yes we do!” Then we explain how we pick the clones we are going to flower right off the same shelf that their clones come from.

So today will be a real quick post on how we do it (because there isn’t much to it).

The above picture is of one of the grows that we just put in a few days ago and as you can see we do ebb and flow hydroponics (also know as fill and drain or slap and tickle) with extruded clay pellets/pebbles.

We put enough pellets in the bottom of basket so that it sits high enough that the top of the pouch will be above the water line/level (when the bucket is full) so the dirt will not be washed out. That’s it, no tricks, no smoke, no mirrors. And no problems, including zero problems with pH because of the dirt.

The reason we do it this way is because if you pull your clones out of the bag (regardless what they are being planted in) you are disturbing the roots, no matter how careful, no matter how gentle you try to be, you are disturbing the roots. There’s just no getting around it.

By disturbing the roots not much good will come of it. Best case scenario is that you plant will lag for 7-14 days as it recovers from the shock of what you just did it. Middle of the road scenario is that you end up with a less than vigorous plant which will mean a low yield at harvest time. Worse case scenario, your plant dies.

So we tell every single person who gets their clones from us to LEAVE THEM IN THE POUCH regardless if they are going in dirt, water or fairy dust.

The next question we’re asked is “will the roots pass through the bag?” and again our answer is “yes!“, check out the picture below of a clone that was planted in a second pouch and then put into flower (in hydro) and as you can see the roots had absolutely no problem passing through both pouches, the pellets and into the bottom of the bucket.

We have been doing it this way for years with great success and would encourage those considering this as an option to take the plunge, the water is fine!

Just in case you missed our YouTube video on Root Pouches here it is again:
