J1 - 2 x Dr Grinspoon & CS Feminising

[J189RFC]

So in my other thread I mentioned that I was waiting to put a DrG in water and get that ball rolling. I did that today. Tomorow night into paper towel, next day soil. I figured since this strain is poorly documented I will give it my best go. I'm going to run these to their second/third node and switch to 12/12,maybe 1145/1215 I hear it is way long to flower and might just not flower under 1212. Is it running with others but thats ok. There is a whole breading program in my active journal.


Strain: Dr Grinspoon
Flowering 100days Pure sative
Soil Organic
400wHPS + 90w LED


Wish me luck!

Good luck! I picked up one of these seeds from Herbie's and plan on trying it once I have a few grows behind me. I've read good things and I hope she does well for you. Subbed!

Subbed interested in the strain. This will be fun!!

Hey iluvsnow and gramfan, I'm really worried about this strain, mostly cause they cost 15$ each! (60$/5) and I'm worried that if they don't germ I wont be able to get a resend and will have wasted my chance to make a super potent cross that will end up with tons of sativa genetics and potency.

Yet I'm super excited at the same time because I get to experiment and have some fun. I hope they don't get root bound ....

Ignition, green light, it's a go

Wow this should b interesting subbed

Hey Joe! Welcome

Seeds are now out of their shells and up in the air! Updates in the next day or two.

 

[J189RFC]

So they are both up! So far so good.

 

[DrVerdethumb]

So far so good, I'll be following along since I'm about a week behind you.

So they are both up! So far so good.

Cool... but I've gotta ask. Maybe it's the angle of the shot, but to me it looks like the surface of the soil is around 4" (~100mm) from the top of the pot. why so low? more soil = bigger root system = better nutrient uptake = better yield

 

[J189RFC]

Some one noticed! I was worried about stretch during seedling phase so I thought I could mostly fill the pots, and once they get to the right size I would fill them. I don't think I will do this in the future though, mostly because of the new LED on the way.

thanks for stopping in.

Not much to update, they are looking good. Always a little slow at this stage. Second leaves are coming up now. Was hoping to flip the 11th but it might be later. I want everyone to have at least 3 full sets of leaves, and by then my LED should be here!

 

[J189RFC]

And hello to you DrVerde! Your sprouts are looking great!

 

[J189RFC]

Grinspoon is looking good. Shes a little slow to start but will more than make up for it in flower from what I hear. Almost have the LED. Looking forward to it!

 

[Graytail]

Ooooo, a Dr Grinspoon grow! I'm in!



It's on the list for my next seed buy. I'm going to enjoy watching yours - thank you!

CS? You're gonna S1 it?

 

[J189RFC]

I'm really excited and slightly worried. I think I want the wispy pheno... but I'm also sure I want at least some buds from it. Either way the next grow is going to be a home made DrG cross!

 

[joegrower619]

I would like to see something like a Dr g x big bud cross or heavy indica og or other type of kush would b cool or maybe a GDP since its a total opposite dense compact rock buds with a Lil purpose color

 

[TattooedJT]

I think that I will pull up a chair, pack a bowl and watch the show!

 

[J189RFC]

Welcome all! I am hoping to increase the yield and decrease the flowering time. But I don't want to bring it down too much. Maybe into the 80 day period would be good. As for yield, not worried. Even if it's only 1oz a plant over 100 days I'll just have to put more in the ground! My big worry is trimming. All those loose, wispy free flowing buds.... *snip,snip,snip,snip.......*

 

[J189RFC]

So I should have known better than to spray with Neem before they were old enough. Little damaged but coming back just fine!

 

[J189RFC]

Added more soil to the one thats all bent over. Will be pinching the big one tomorrow morning so I can have enough branches to pollinate! Soon begins the CS treatment. Going to slowly introduce 11.5/12.5 to make sure that the sativas are doing their thing. Also going to light proof the closet a little bit better. Just in case.
