Gee's First Grow - Supersoil Fully Organic LED 2017

[Gee64]

The seeded clones would be fairly small in 2.5 gallon pots but thats ok. As long as I get a bunch of seeds

 

[Gee64]

My other option is to just do 2 regular plants from 1 strain, likely the Purple Kush first and cut 2 clones from each for 12 plants then expect 3 to be males so that gets me down to 9 plants then colloidal 1 and pollinate 1 and grow 7 for yield. Then do 1 strain feminized every grow. It would take longer to feminize all my strains but would be easier to manage doing only 1 regular strain per grow

yes once the male pollen sacs start to appear I was thinking move those out to a spare t5 I have. It doesnt need to be super bright just 12/12 then get some pollen and stick it to the clones in full flower

Yeah a T5 should be plenty of light. In my experience though, you don't necessarily want to mis-treat the CS reversal plants or else they don't really produce much pollen. Like I had the idea of, "Oh well, if it stressed it out, it will just throw more flowers," because people think that's how hermies form, but it didn't really follow suit in that fashion. I just ended up with a plant that didn't produce much pollen.

The best way I've seen it done is some breeder that put a male plant in with a bunch of females into a sealed breeding room and when its sacs started openening, they lifted it up on a pulley system and let it drop and you could literally see pollen burst off of it and permeate through the room. But the male was large,just as large as the females around it.

Today is aproximately half way thru budding. Have a great evening Everyone!

 

[Gee64]

Not much going on today but heres a shot of the canopy. Its levelled out really nicely. Heavy plain water day tomorrow so I will grab some good pics then.

 

[Pennywise]

Looking spot on Gee

 

[Gee64]

Thanks Penny. Theres not much to do these days but wait til its done. In about 3 weeks I have to start the seeds for my next grow so I guess I have to make some decisions there. Im doing some feminized Waikiki Queen and some feminized Chronic for sure but after that Im really not sure what regs I will run. Im leaning towards more Hemmy Black and some Purple Kush. Its driving me batty lol.

 

[Pennywise]

Either one sounds like a good choice

 

[Gee64]

Wow the dslr in the dark with a flash is so much better

 

[Pennywise]

Sweet flowers Gee

 

[Gee64]

Thanks PW. They are progressing nicely. Starting to get stinky

 

[Pennywise]

Yep they'll only get better too.

I was just in leaf tucking and man o man the Durban Sativas has pushed alot of lower tops up as branches into the canopy. The OG Kush had already done it as its a stockier bushy plant and the Green crack really doesnt branch at all its just main colas but the Durban, lwhich I thought would be a bit of a light weight as a producer is going crazy now. It will need a couple extra weeks as its a loger bloomer and I now see why. I cant get any pics for you giys as its too crowded but if I have to pull a Durban out I will get some. It would be a great ScrOGger.

 

[Gee64]

And my spelling sucks today as well

 

[Pennywise]

And the Durbans are from CKS?

 

[Gee64]

And the Durbans are from CKS?

Yes. I started 3 and got 2 phenos. All are fairly lanky but 1 is shorter than the other 2 with colas similar to a kush. The other 2 are lankier with alot of space between bud sites but all of a sudden 1 of them has started a secondary stretch pushing lower bud sites up to the top as branches. I havent paid close attention but last week I had the plant out on the work bench and it wasnt like that. A couple of the lowest buds have stretched 6 to 8 inches up into the canopy but held the buds at the tip. Its like buds on a stick and up in full light they should get quite large. They will need to be tied for sure

 

[Gee64]

Heres a cola of the stockier pheno.

Heres a lankier pheno

Heres an 8" branch that just popped up with my hand holding a 6" one out of the way

Heres the 6" with the 8" beside it.
Im excited. There are others and hopefully the other lanky pheno will do it too.

 

[Gee64]

you can see a 3" one towards the main stalk starting too. What a great surprise at the end of week 5! Thanks Ganja Gods

 

[Pennywise]

Interesting to see how they smoke

 

[Gee64]

Lol would I sound like Im fulla BS if I said "Oh no, I just grow them cuz they are pretty"?
