Just recently realized I have no active Wildling-00/2019s for the season. So figure this is as good a time as any to get cracking on these.
This is the result of my first truly successful grow, which produced an imperial buttload of seeds, as I intended. Back in 2018, I purchased an ounce of Tardis and an ounce of Sour Banana Sherbert at my favorite dispensary. I found an opportinity seed in each one, which I grew on the 2019 grow. I called them Tardis Lite and Sour Banana Sherbert Lite, since there was no way of knowing what mutts pollinated the flowers that made the seeds. I now call unknowns, or even extremely uncertains now mutts, and offspring of a pure and anything other than its own sibling, a Lite.
So anyway, the Tardis Lite ended up being female and the Sour Banana Sherbert Lite ended up being male. We then carefully collected pollen from the SBS-Lite and hand pollinated quite a number of flowers on the Tardis Lite, which gave us the mass of seeds shown above. These, being the offspring of a pair of non-sibling Lites became what I call a Wildling, my first (and an amazing stroke of luck for my first real grow as well). So these are now known as Ravenplume Wildling-00/2019 (First Wildling...I start my numbering at 0; and generated 2019.) Had a fairly decent 2020 grow with 3 plants, and if I remember right, all three were what I call guttersnipes, which are simply plants growing wild, whether known strain or not. Those have been retroactively declared Guttersnipe:00, 01, and 02. Got a Guttersnipe:03 last year, but that is for its own journal. Only had one of these on the 2021 grow, and it was a fairly small one (Bitter Sweet Pie was my other that year). Still, the 2021 W:00/2019 made a decent amount of bud (though I don't recall how much), and a single self pollinated seed that sprouted, tried to grow, and died.
2022 was the big event for Wildling-00 though. I pollinated 2 sibling seeds together, meeting what I understood as the requirement to declare a pure strain and a name and claim. And those produced Feyleaf-Generation:00/2022, which then went on to immediately give Feyleaf Lite:2023. But that, once again, it its own journal.
The objectives will differ slightly from other journals on this one. I am only doing three seeds, and of course, the first girl gets to be the primary, which will be planted in a 5 gallon bucket and become part of my main grow to be journaled in the upcoming CNX-2024:0. Second girl will get the colloidal silver solution to self pollinate and make feminized seeds. I do believe this is another path to a name and claim, as self pollinating is the ultimate go eff yourself which is required for a pure breed; a process I prefer to call noble breeding, which is a much nicer sounding way of what it is normally called. If I get a third girl, then I guess I grow her out as normal in a 5 gallon bucket as well. Any boys will get their pollen saved to be used for future acts of mad half-assed science. So here we got our three subjects drenched on their germination towel, sharing it with a few other things. Had no idea the Moonflower seeds would be so huge. Expected them to be like morning glory seeds; but I digress...
Here are the vitals as best as I can determine on these...
Name: Wildling-00/2019
Subclass: Sativa Dominant
Mother Plant: Tardis Lite:2018
Mother Plant SC: Sativa
Father Plant: Sour Banana Sherbert Lite:2018
Father Plant SC: Indica/Sativa Hybrid - 50/50
And again, the waiting begins. Next round of Wildling-00/2019 I start will be for this year's 4/20 Challenge. Decided to continue this little personal tradition despite last year's total failure. That will commence on 4/16 or 4/17, and will be its own little journal.
