Icemud's aka Muddy Genes Beans Test Grows: Seed Genetics Trials

Congrats on the success with the week away. :headbanger:

They look great! It's amazing how you can play around with them in veg. I've come to the point where I let 'em get too big, whack 'em back, neglect 'em ... then finally maybe trim one up and flip it when I get the space. :cheesygrinsmiley:

They end up smoking the same. :bongrip:

Hey Graytail! Thanks!

Yea I kind of have been doing that for a while too... When I was running the 2 tents (veg/flower) I never could get the timing right so I always ended up having the veg tent getting too large and having to top them multiple times to stall them out until flowering was done... lol. Always worked just fine topping them pretty aggressively.

I'm really excited about this grow. Something is telling me these will smoke fantastic :) hopefully I am pleased :)

Have a wonderful new year 2024 Graytail!

Best regards,
 
So the girls were looking a bit limpy and dry last night so I stuck to my "natural" feedings and gave them some H2O, seaweed/kelp fish fertz, some zyme, some microbes, some superthrive and also added some bigbloom and potassium sulfate to start ramping up the nutrients for flowering in which I will be flipping probably by the end of this weekend.

I don't want them getting too big so I figure now or never :)
 
Happy New Years Eve everyone!

What are your New Years resolutions... well.. not mess up my plants by overwatering them.. LOL.. losing weight and getting in better health.. hopefully some promotions and developing new income streams... thats some of my goals in general... not really into new years resolutions though...

Well I made the decision and on the night of the 28th... I changed the light schedule to 12/12. Therefore Day 1 flowering is Dec 29th after a full 12 hours of darkness.

I raised the lights up to about 24" above the tallest plants and on 2 of the lights I turned on both switches. I customized my old budmaster 4 panel lights by combining 2 COB and 2 of the SMD LED (god panel) modules so each light has 2 of each. This way I can have the best of both worlds, extremely bright red/blues with intensity as well as the nice warm white light from the COBS. I've thought about upgrading to the newest tech since its come a long way even since these panels were new, but they seem to work well. Typically each quad mod panel is about 180-200w each, in veg I run only the 300w COBs and flowering I'm running 600w with all mods on.

I gave the girls another small volume drink, more of a soil wetting today and they really seem to have liked the last feeding as the look lush and happy.

The one Classified OG looks almost jurassic or something with the large jagged leaves. So far I really am digging how that one looks. Also the deep chunk leaning GDPxDeep Chunk x Alien Antifreeze looks really interesting too. Nice tight indica type stacking.

Not much else really to report right now. I have a cold and my sinus's are FUBAR so smelling the girls/stem rubs I can't really do, however when I opened the tent, I definitely smelled them so I know they are knocking! lol..


Here is the full tent view on day 1 (29th)



Classified and Classified OG= [Ogiesel (clone) x Apollo 13 F4 (mendelxmotarebel)]





Un-named = [(GDP (clone) x Deep Chunk (Hazemans Monkey Balls F2)] x Alien Antifreeze (Mycotek)




Unnamed= (Cannorado Birthday Cake S1 x Obsoul33t Genetics Orange Fruity Pebbles OG)


Unnamed = [(Black Diamond OG (clone) x Black Cherry (reversed clone)] x Gods Gift F2


Unnamed = Ogiesel x Sour Grapes (Hazeman)
 
Hey everyone!

Quick update... Well some very disappointing news... out of the 9 plants I had in the tent.... Only 1 is a female, the Classified OG... All of the others were males and were culled.

1 of the GDP x Deep Chunk X Alien Antifreeze is showing flowers but also has what appear to be balls too. I'm letting it go a bit just to see if the balls continue to develop or if its just a couple that I can pick off and at least let the plant flower, so right now its still growing.

So therefore out of 9 plants, only 1 maybe 2 might be continuing the journey. I was thinking about takiung clones of of the clasified, rooting them and then putting them into the tent so I at least could have a few more plants. After deliberation of it for a while I decided against it as this is a test grow, and aftewords I will just do another new test grow, no need to enlongate the wait :)

I will get some pics up this weekend of the progress. Kind of disappointed I got so many males so maybe on test 2, I will do less strains, more plants of each to hopefully improve my ratios.
 
Hey everyone... I'm well overdo for an update... Here are some photos of the progress so far... This was day 5 flowering, back on Jan 4th.





 
After almost all the plants showed balls and got culled, here are the 2 remaining plants... 1x Classified OG (Ogiesel x Apollo 13 F4) and (GDP x Deep Chunk) x Alien Antifreeze.

The GDPxDCxAA showed balls at first but also then started producing white hairs so although technically a hermi, the balls stopped growing so I decided to flower it out since this grow will be just for flower anyhow. It actually has turned out to look amazing and frosty and the terps are hard to describe but very complex and a purps/grape mixed with hints of tropical fruit and deep skunk

The Classified OG is also looking really good, nice dense frosty buds are starting to form, but it had a little issue with the nutrients I gave it and freaked out a little.

This is on Day 12 flowering




 
Here is Day 19 flowering:







 
And here we are as of today.... day 25 flowering... I opened the tent this morning and OHHH MY... the terps are extremely strong.... it smelled like a skunk rolled through grapes... thankful for carbon filters!

The frost is really starting to build up.

I have been focused on mostly natural/organic nutrients with an occasional feeding of synthetics to get the best of both worlds since each type of nutrient seems to bring out different features in the terps...

Really really stinky plants... wow!

Hey Everyone, Happy Friday!!!

My apologies I haven't updated in a while... My job has had me mentally drained lately so by the time I get home I make food, and hit the bed... I have to say I love parts of my job in the aerospace industry but other parts of it are the most stressful job I've ever had.

So as for the Muddy Genes Test grow, all things have come to an end. I culled both plants on March 6th, which is day 67 of flowering from the flip to 12/12. This grow went fairly well for the most part. I didn't defoliate so some of the large fan leaves late in the grow have crumpled up and dried up so the pics dont look as pretty as they would have if I would have pruned and defloliated.

I am quite impressed with both strains that finished this grow. Both are extremely frosty, have very strong terps and are dense buds. The Classified OG (Ogiesel x Apollo 13F4) finished very quickly and could have been culled about 2 weeks ago but I was trying to harvest both of them at the same time to use my tent for a drying area to minimize smell. The (GDP x Deep Chunk) x Alien Antifreeze on day 67 probably could have been run another week or maybe even too, but i didn't want to delay the Classified too far where it degraded.

One of the changes I made this grow was I purchased plant pot risers which are waffle like plastic inserts that the pots sit on and it give them about 1" of rise to allow the draining feedings to drip into the tray and keeps the pots from sitting in the water. Definitely helped me with better watering practices.

Both plants were cut at the stem base, and hung upside down in my grow tent. I have a small vaporizer in the tent set to a humidity of 60% RH so hopefully it will keep the RH high so they dry slow, and I set the extraction fan to low to minimize them drying out quickly.

I'm going to dry the plants out over the next week or 2 weeks and then will trim them up and take some photos....

The terps on both plants are really strong but its hard to tell what exactly the smell is.

The Classified OG has a very dank skunky kush smell with hints of something else like a coolwater cologne smell.
The GDPXDeep ChunkxAlien also has a very complex terp profile, mixes of armpit bo, skunk, kush and grape

Since My last post was day 25 of flowering I will post some of the photos along the way in the following posts.

Hey Icemud! Nice to have ran across your grow. Lovely things you have going there. Can’t wait to see the harvest! How’s things looking now?
Hey DreKoola!

Glad to have you come through! Sorry I sort of neglected my updates but I will be continuing on with a new grow after this one is complete with all new genetics I made and haven't tested yet... STill deciding on what I will run next.
 
Hey Icemud, hope you all great. A shame for this grow that you rolled a bunch of males on the dice but heck, you got a lot of enviable crosses to work your way through!
Hey Stunger... yea I was a little bummed I got so many males but the 2 females that came out of this grow really seem to be quite impressive so that makes it all worth it for me :)

Hopefully next run I will have better luck with females but as long as I get a couple I'm happy :) I considered re-vegging these but since I'm testing genetcis and have so many strains I've made I decided to chalk it up and try new genetics next run so I get a better idea of what I've made and get to try it all :)

Hope all is well with you!
