Day 29. Going into pre flower. Expecting a big stretch like my last run with Twisted Trees. Alien Moonrocks by them is the best weed I've ever grown.

Week 27 - 4 weeks into the new flower cycle and bud development is a lot more advanced, much earlier post-transition too. It’d be great if these finished out early as we’ve got some extra cuts on the white widow that may need a home in a few weeks. Couldn’t resist - it’s such a vigorous plant that we’re gonna keep it for the next pollen chuck if the schedule aligns. Chopped out a massive amount of larf from the undercarriage and we were ruthless here due to super high humidity and ideal conditions for botrytis. Still hoping on some useable seed and/or bud but this whole thing has been touch and go since the partial reveg. Alls good for now. Thanks for take’n a look. As for the outdoor… meh. Like everyone around here we’ve fallen victim to far too much sustained rain recently and the WPM on the strawberry has really set in. The harvest window has cracked open slightly with about 2 weeks to peak. Still waiting on chop day though so it’s 50/50 if there’ll be anything usable on this plant. In a last ditch effort to get er to the end we’re gonna strip most of her fan leaves now. That’ll alleviate the WPM somewhat (in combo with a daily peroxide spray). We’ll likely chop early too. The bud wash should greatly assist with and offset any lingering small amounts but she’s gotta get there first and this strain is not known for mold resistance. Time will tell. The Lost Coast OG - an absolute champ. Lush and green, came through the rains just fine and should be a great smoke when it’s all said and done. Not long for either now - should be better part of 2 weeks for the strawberry and then whenever the og says fini👍. Background/Repetitive Nonsense These plants will be the two mothers this growing season that will be utilized for stage 2 of the pollen chucking project. We’ll be taking clones and stressing the genetics for some fem. pollen using colloidal silver. Instead of trying to reinvent the wheel with landrace genetics, we’re effectively skipping initial hybrid crossing and stabilization, going straight to the polyhybrid mix. I call it the shotgun approach to selective, unvetted and amateur breeding on a micro scale😉. These 2 parent strains will form the basis for 8-10 different F1 polyhybrid combinations and a further S1 back cross of each of the mothers. Not only should we be able to preserve the genetics for both mothers in feminized form but we’ll also be running an entire family of new hybrids after seeding out clones from each on the initial lineup of this summers photoperiods. Method is pretty simple here; once we’ve got our pollen off the two mothers we’ll be clipp’n clones on 4 select strains that have proven results from various respected breeders. We’ll be using those for pollination purposes in what is expected to be a 10 plant recirculating Dutch bucket hydro system. ***Update*** The feminization process didn’t take at all with the strawberry or the Skywalker so it’ll be reg. Seed crosses with only Skywalker and some other 707 Headband that we have in the vault. ********* Strain details: Parent strains for self pollination - Skywalker Kush by Reserva Privada Classic kush effects and earthy aroma. The strong kush element of this cultivar will compliment any cross. - Spliffs Strawberry by Spliff Seeds Incredible mix of flavourful terpenes and hard hitting high THC. She’s got some Herer as well as some Diesel in ‘er so an obvious choice for any cross as well. ***UPDATE*** The strawberry had to come out of this breeding run to wait for a better mother that hasn’t been attacked by aphids. It’s been a tough battle this season and we’ve had to make a couple of heartbreaking sacrifices already. Parent Strains for cross pollination ***UPDATE*** We added another 2 strains to the mix just in case we need to spot swap for some more variety. - Ghost Train by AMS Seeds A cross of Alien OG x Ghost Train Haze. Never tried the strain but I’ve heard only good things. This one might be worth mixing with the Strawberry so we’ll see how it goes. ***UPDATE*** Sadly - the ghost train turned out to be an auto so cloning her out as part of the breeding project is a no-go. Really disappointed about this but at least we still have a ready backup strain on the lost coast og to take her place. - Boogie Nights by AMS Seeds A cross of Kalijah, aka afghani/skunk/diesel/blue heaven X Juanita, aka NYC Diesel/Reina Madre). No idea here so naturally I’m interested😉. ************** - Lost Coast OG by Emerald Triangle Pakistani Kush x Lemon Thai x Chemdawg #4. Essentially a classic, west coast combo of landrace kush genetics that Cali is famous for, mixed with hard hitting Chemdawg #4. ***UPDATE*** The Lost Coast is a winner of a plant. Still outdoors and in veg. Looks like it’s recovered from the aphid attack. Might consider trying to take another cut of this and just rooting it in a pot for pollination. At this point, what the hell and if we could salvage anything it would be a positive. *****update: got lazy and taking a cut never happened… so dumb - this plant is amazingly resilient and thicka than a snicka!****** - Spliffs Blueberry by Spliff Seeds (Chocolate Thai x Afghani #1 x Highland Oaxaca) x Northern Lighhts Special. Only 1 bean of this left and the whole purpose is to blend the best of Spliffs Berry strains as a tribute. Awesome breeder and they’ve been very kind to us over the years. - Northern Light by Royal Queen Seeds NL means nuff said. A combo of 11 unknown strains believed to originate from the west coast of North America. This cultivar is a great take on these classic genetics and a perfect compliment to just about any cross. A biased fave of ours.👍 - White Widow by Seedsman Brazilian Sativa x South Indian Indica. This classic strain has been unluckily elusive for us the last couple years. We know the quality of seedsmans version of this cultivar having grown it in the past. Sadly, a very strong performer that never made it to harvest due to an uncontrollable aphid infestation. And we’re only at step 1.... still gonna need an assist with pheno hunting all of the crosses so if anyone’s interested in running the testers (when we finally get to that point) just let me know👍😎. *****Update - plagues by issue after issue and having this project go an extra 6 weeks at least has been frustrating as fuck. Still on the way to chop as I write and really unlikely we’ll be pulling seed off this run. Big time bummer but it is what it is. Lessons learned, move on👍.**** Gonna be a Dope ass summer project and can’t wait to see it in full swing🤟. Thanks for stopp’n in y’all👊

Ladys lookin good and slowly starting to flower 💚✌️

I got a double scrog setup and I'm gonna let it grow into it. This is my first grow and I'm excited. General Hydroponics nutes (Flora series). Kingbrite QB 288 v3 from alibaba. I'm just gonna let her do her thing until about week 3.

Start der 7. Blütewoche. Junge junge, die calypso sunrocks ist wirklich der Wahnsinn! War ein bonus seed von linda seeds, besten Dank nochma👌😜 Habe beide Damen vorgestern nochmal mit bio bloom von greenhouse nachgedüngt. Jetzt sollte nix mehr schiefgehen.. Bin sehr gespannt aufs letzte drittel. Bei der banana punch geht's auch in die richtige Richtung. Weniger Stretch wegen der 50/50 Genetik und der doppelten Anzahl an Haupttrieben. Aber s'läuft👌 14.02. Ende der 7. Blütewoche. Die calypso sunrocks ist schon weiter als die banana punch. Aber 2 bis 3 Wochen werden es bestommt noch sein. Ich hab Zeit, die regeln das schon😉 seid gespannt wie ich..

Sooo liebe Growfreunde, wir sind wieder zurück für einen kurzen Wochenbericht. Heute ist BT 25 am Dienstag endet somit Woche 4. Leider blüht die Gorilla Zkittlez immernoch nicht, keine Ahnung was sie hat. Aber alle anderen 5 machen sich prächtig😎💪👌🤗. Extrem viele Blütenstände. Hab nochmal richtig entlaubt, alle großen Blätter weg. Ich weis das viele von euch dass anders gemacht hätten, für mich war der Hintergrund die Lichtausbeute, deshalb so radikal. Hab fast nicht gelollipoppt weil überall Licht hinkommt. Was meint ihr dazu? Übrigens danke an alle die meinem Grow folgen,liked und kommentieren👍

Hello hope this find you well! As for now this Zkittle is growing buds. And shows some sign of lack potassium nutritions. So today give her some 1.2.4 ratios with some extra cask and molasses.

49eme jour de fruits se passe bien.

Week2 Day 1- 08/19/2023 Weekly Maintenance- Non-Water change week Added .5mil/gal of TPS SILICA Gold = 39 gallons X .5 = 19.5mil = 20mil add She really does look great today. More roots are finding their way out of the basket and into the water, looks like I might be able to give her, her first top soon. Humidity is still running just a little low, I am making sure I keep a close eye on the humidifiers and added more water as needed. Week2 Day 2- 08/20/2023 She is definitely a mutant, I was having a hard time deciding if I could Top her and if I did, where, since she is so closed up still. Found one side node that looked promising to let it spread out and not compact in harder from the cut. Hopefully the topping will help induce a rapid growth like her sister and spread her out a little bit more. She got her first hair cut today. Week2 Day 3 - 08/21/2023 She is absolutely growing but with the mutations not outwardly exploding, the root ball is starting to form very nicely. She overall looks really happy to me. I will just continue to observe and do what feels right in regard to methodologies as she grows. Week2 Day 4 - 8/22/2023 she is looking great.. From me thinking she wouldn't make it to me having to support the stem and hand drip water.. I didn't think this little Mutant would make it but she is doing great, lets see what we can do with her over this grow. Week2 Day 5 - 08/23/2023 What more can you say then I am proud of my little mutant.. she is taking to the system well, still not much I can do with her. Small tops in awkward spots. Week2 Day 6 - 08/24/2023 Not much to report today, her growth is going great. Looks nice and comfortable, Saturday Water Change day. Tomorrow I will get all of her end of week measurements for height and all. Week2 Day 7 - 08/25/2023 Week 2 is officially in the bag, my little mutant is now at 6 and just right at a 1/2 inch tall. The Rate of growth is showing she might need the full additional 6 weeks of Veg, but depending on continued growth of her sister, she might not be able to get the time and need to go to flower a little on the small side in 4-5 weeks. We will see how it goes but she is looking great and the root structure is looking great! Humidity is still a little low I added water to the Humidifiers and adjusted the input air flow down slightly. I also turned on the 4th fan to increase circulation in the tent.

the girls are struggling a little bit. One is yellowing because its about to flower, but one is just not growing much and the other is very lanky.

I think 2 a 3 weeks more before harvest

At this point the special queen and kush were sprouting, the ak-47 with 3 weeks and the critical with 1 week

SECOND HARVEST OF MY LIFE!! ALWAYS TRYING TO IMPROVE. THANK YOU ALL GUYS.

Such a beautiful plant , buds are deliciously skunky and sweet . Getting thick and sticky . Still a few weeks to go till I get to smoke it all . I’ll keep up the defol and bring her home strong .

This week I didn’t make any structural changes and just let the plant develop naturally. I’ve now introduced Green Sensation and removed Power Buds from the feeding schedule. Also, I forgot to mention that last week I set the LED to 100%, and it’s currently running at around 800 PPFD. Everything is progressing well so far, now it’s just about maintaining stability and letting the plant focus on flower development 🌸💪

You can really start to see the buds forming. I was still on preflower nutrients on cruise control until the buds get more dense still no smell

started LST Sat, 11/4{ did my best my 1st time}.,Tues.11/7 ,Fed nutrients 4ml.sensi grow A-B, 2ml. Bud Candy, 2ml. Bud Ignitor, 4ml. Cal-Mag. Thurs. 11/9 did some defoliation and to me it looks o.k. but IDK this is my 1sr time growing dont know what to look for to trouble shoot. Wed..11/8 look like pistols started to show up on my girls, So it must be time to start the bloom nutrients, girls are 29 days old.

OMG!! Holy Smoke strains are just next level beast's. The amount of stretching I've had to deal with in just the 1st 2 weeks of Flower is fucking unreal. Haven't seen it with any other strains from other seedbanks..... So far only HOLY SMOKE 👍🏾🍓😎
