Hi guys. My entry this month is a White Siberian that I scored as a freebie seed from Dinafem. She was my first outdoor-grown plant, and I am very pleased with how well she turned out! 100% organically grown, 6 ft tall, and STICKY. I harvested her last Saturday Sept 29th and currently have her hanging for a few more days until she goes into jars to cure. Much Love!

Its been quite a while since I have submitted plants for this contest but my Satori is a real beauty this year.

 

[Blueskybsn]

Here is my OG Kush right before I chopped her down today, 10/3. She got up to about 5.5 feet tall and probably about just about as bushy too. Put out some super sticky and awesome looking buds.

Plant of the Month - October 2012

Super Lemon Haze (f) (peach lavender pheno) x Rey Mysterio (m) (so cal acclimatized mexican sativa)

The Rey Mysterio gave the Super Lemon Haze a major boost in vigor, bud size, and pest resistance! The amazing peach/lavender from the mother came through perfectly in the cross, wow, the scent is so sweet and soft.

In this small side garden, all are sister plants grown from seeds. Only the middle plant in the rear with the smaller buds is different, our CBD champion "Harlequin". Nothing fancy, 3 and 5 gallon pots with a mixture of Berger Peat #2 and homemade worm castings. We fertilized mostly with Plantex 20-20-20 and watered from our pond.

No pesticides or fungicides needed on these flowers.

Plant of the Month - October 2012

Super Lemon Haze (f) (peach lavender pheno) X Rey Mysterio (m) (so cal acclimatized mexican sativa)

Sister plants exhibiting slight differences

If I had to choose a specimen, the one on the front left in the light is a good one. It is actually in a #3 pot little more than 2/3 full of peat/perlite/castings.

The cross itself is what I'm so excited about. I've been brushing some pollen for a couple years, with poor results as far as getting a relatively stable group of offspring which exceed both parents in quality; this is my first success in that respect.

First grow ever - Outdoor Ocean grown Sativa OG Kush.
I was pruning 4-5 weeks into flower of my first grow (mother plant). I thought , hell I want to preserve these genetics, this stuff is stinky! I dipped the woody stem with 3 little leaves on it into some Clonex Rooting gel, and put into sphagum peat moss in a humidity dome. Took 4 weeks to root. It has epic resins.

OK,

Here's my entry for Plant of the Month.

I got myself a clone from the only collective left in my area. It was a Gran Daddy Purple clone. It had decent small growth along the stem and looked to be in good shape. It was obviously pot bound in the little red cup it was in. So, I repotted it into a bigger pot with some fresh organic soil mix. I was really careful when repotting it since this was my first ever attempt at growing, I wanted to get everything just right.

To my horror, as I looked down at the table after repotting my clone. I noticed that I had knocked a new growth sprout off the side of the stalk .... down near the bottom of the stalk. I felt so bad about ravaging my precise little plant. So, I decided right there and then that this little piece of plant needed to live. The cutting was so tiny, only about a half inch long. I wasn't sure if I could save it or not. So, I put a little sprinkle of rooting hormone in some water and place it into one of my wifes little candle holders and used a toothpic to keep the plant out of the water. Just the stem touched the water. It seemed to live for about 5 days. After which, I went out and got the supplies I needed to make a small bubble cloner. I wanted to move it to the bubble cloner, but It was too small. There was no way I was going to be able to put it into a foam circle and the stem would never be able to get anywhere near the water. So, I had to make a little tinfoil sling to hold the plant at water level. After ten days, it seems to be in excellent health.

Yesterday, when I looked in on it, I noticed that it has three tiny little hairs hanging down from the stem into the water. Since I now have roots ..... as tiny as they are. I am calling this little bugger a plant. I actually have more time invested into this tiny little thing than I do the three big ones currently in my grow box. Hopefully it will make it into the next batch I run throw the big grow box.

So, here is my official entry .......... "Mini Me"
