some of their results do seem a bit iffy
What I don't understand is that for months and months the bb had the record at 23... Now all of a sudden every entry isway above that. Maybe they changed their parameters or something?
Nice man! Track down that romeo cut and you're set
I believe the test results are represented as a percentage of the total active cannabinoids, not a percentage of the plant matter. But yeah I've seen some wacky results being posted that don't really jive.
No that's the percent of cannabinoids of the plant matter. At least that's what they claim. They do show the results as a percentage of total active cannabinoids and that's the last part. Where THC is pretty much always above a 9:1 ratio versus CBD.
These results are bullshit. And I'm not surprised their own people admitted the standards they used to calibrate their HPLC were not accurate.

Yo! Hollar at me. Dried bud shots are my specialty...And one last post for a few weeks...
This shot is crap! Where is someone at with a good god damn macro lens?
You can get very differing results off different buds on the same plant. Many many many factors go into this, amount of light, nutrient, etc. These numbers are merely ball park figures and to some degree benchmarks that growers can brag about, nothing more. The ratios say nothing to define the type of high. Personally, this batch of Banner came out super strong, but the high is boring. My favorite sativas and hazes with the best kind of highs almost always score well below 20% THC. These numbers have no real bearing to the experience of the high. It does provide some insight for the grower themselves if you are getting it tested batch after batch after batch, as far as dialing in your environment. I think the Banner that was submitted for the HT Cannabis Cup scored 17-18% THC, where mine was a bit more dialed, IMHO! But then again, who knows, I have no idea what I'm doing, and test results are never the same for the same strain.
They must have changed something. It seems like every sample now is coming in 20+
Well, they did get raided by the DEA last year and had all their standards taken from them and had to start over. But yea, there is no standard on these. I have noticed more and more samples of any strain come in over the 20% mark. Are they taking bribes over at FSL (or handjobs)? Who knows!?!?!

Here is more of TR's Lashkar Gah Afghani x Deep Chunk -- I grew this one from seed, it's my "#2" girl with giant middle finger leaves, not sure if she's the keeper or my #5 (uber-fat rounded, shiny jungle fans). Gotta finish 'em out in the next 2 weeks and see what's up. #2 is gonna come down within 5 days, gotta check the trichs again tonight...
Baba Ku "#2"
And here are some shots of some fuck-around DNA Genetics Sour Cream ladies that I just threw into flower in keg cups to see what I could get. They're finishing just as long as the one I ran in a 5-gal SmartPot (75+ days) and looking just as frosty -- won't get much yield, but it was cool to see how well they did with that little space. They smell WAY ESCDish, you barely nudge them and it stanks up your finger for an hour. Experiments R fun:
These are at about day 65

I didn't realize I was growing any percent of "drugs". This is a medicinal herb, and IMHO, these numbers have little bearing as to the medical potency or effect. If you were to strip this plant of everything but its THC/CBD/CBN, it wouldn't have the same effect. Its the holistic cocktail of the natural herb that produces the desired natural effect.
It definitely seems the FSL results have been gradually going up over time. I think Chem & m even just said he had 3 strains come out at over 30%. Last summer it seemed all the tests were all the low to mid 20 percentile and now it seems like everyone's tests are above 25%. You can just take the test results for what they are and hope they are keeping them relative to one another. You really have to sample a strain to see how that "holistic cocktail of the natural herb" hits your head anyways... word space -love it

Totally fake, he disappears in that gulch for 1/2 a second and could easily be replaced with a stunt dummy. Not to mention, the height of the slide going down is equal to the height of the ramp on the other end, and therefore he would only build up enough momentum to make it to the peak of the otherside. Basic ballistics....
GODDAMN!
shit.... I am just going to pack it in and go home.
ya'll muhfuggaz ain't playin.
