Yeah I wont sugar coat it, its an expensive hobby to get into and its very time consuming but if you like me and dont go out partying or anything like that and love working with animals theres seriously nothing that will give you the experience of having that wild bird come back to you for the first time its fuckin magic hahaha
well it kinda depends, its just like any other form of hunting except theres an added variable of unpredictability in the bird vs. a gun but you can basically rack up as many kills as the bird is willing to work for and availability of quarry allows, they arent like humans that kill for fun tho so as soon as they are full theyll start acting like assholes and not hunting lol I should be able to get 3-6 birds per outing if I have his weight dialed in right.Dude I had forgotten about the Falconary! That my friend is bad ass!!! Beautiful bird. How manys kills on a good outing? Oh and the ladies are lovely...
Heres a video of me and my first redtail Magua looking for bunnies, didnt find any so he started gnoshing on a rotting coon skull hahaha still a fun outing.
Heres a vid of me working with the new guy, hes very fiesty! probably the most aggressive bird Ive ever had lol
HE DREW FIRST BLOOD!!!

@AutoNorCal Yup! All 4 of my *select Pinkies are starting to show ballsacks!
Will update with pics soon, Life is really kickin my ass right now lol View attachment 679559 but everything is still going smoothly!
Group 1
Finally started seeing balls on my CS treated plants!!!! The MH bulb is really not doing as well in flower as I had hoped but its not horrendous, just not what I would like to see, will definitely go 100% HPS next run.
Group 2
Some of these girls are already shaping up to be very special plants and have even outpaced some of the low yielders from group 1, everybody is extremely colorful... so much so I can barely tell which mom (light purple) they came from, if not for labeling, looks like dad passed on a lot of his traits (dark purple)
Starting to get annoyed with the fungus gnats and whiteflies, considering a little organic pesticide application just to keep the populations in check till I finish out this run but I really hate using anything, Id rather just finish up and start fresh if I can

Group 2 UPDATE!!!! Day 40
@Seedlin suggested I make a video so I snapped a quick 1 minute run through of the group 2 gals while my lights were off.
Stable traits
-Frost
-Purple/Pink buds
-Green leaves (easier to diagnose illness)
Gets me really excited going into the F8!!!!
UPDATE Group 1 Day 73
Male parts forming on all 4 plants that I have been treating with the Tmist, still spraying once a day until I start collecting pollen. I will probably use all 4 reversed females pollen on seperate plants and pollinate all plants to properly smoke test and then select for next generation. I will more than likely run some more F6 Aline to get more of the pink vs dark purple bud but overall the project is coming along very well and I am extremely satisfied with the results!!!
After lots and lots and lots ( I really really mean it) of searching I think I have finally decided on the pperfect line of autos to make my first official Pinkie Pie cross with... its another pink budded, sativa dom, highly inbred, frosty as shit, pink pistiled auto!!!! More updates to come! stay tuned!

I always love the look when the leaves start curling over, thick with trichs and you can catch glimpses of that striking purple peeking out from under, very pretty IMO.
Heres My selection for the dark Mamma, shes extremely resinous and produces some very nice buds, unfortunately all the plants I grew out under the MH have a looser bud structure than I care for but im positive had she been grown under an HPS shed be a monster. Aromas: Pronounced Berry, light Cheese, very light menthol on the finish.
Shes got the smell, color, size, vigor, and bud structure im after so shes passing on her genes!
Here she is around day 70 (pollinated and CS'd Branch)
Here is my selection for Pink Mamma
This girl really is the full package Ultra resinous, Fantastic aromas, beautiful bud structure, Pink buds shes an all around winner in my book! will use her on a couple of nice Group 2 females to test progeny and see how they come out.
Aroma:Citrus, Berry, Cheese
Day 70ish
See the pips towards the bottom of the pic?

Heres a nice Group 2 female at day 40 starting to form up
Some lower nugs off of a random F7 group 2
another random gal forming up
And my Jameson bottle girl in her last days of development.
Notice on all my plants how even when the flowers are near black, the leaves will always be green, this is because colored leafs make it too hard to diagnose pest and disease issues so I have selected towards green leaves over the prettier autumn colors.

So I clipped the reversed branches off of 3 of 4 of my treated females, scrapped darkstars (not a big yielder) and kept the ideal one going since its just starting to form male parts. These 2 gals on the other hand are already starting to open up and will begin dropping pollen soon. Placed both in a cup of water under a cfl bulb with a white piece of paper beneath, now to wait
notice how 1 is pink and the other is purple? did that for a reason

Group 2 update
Cleaned up the lower crap that was just dying and creating space/attracting bugs (normally I do it a bit earlier but Ive been swamped :/ still no excuse tho) took all the girls out and did individual pics to document and reorganized them under the light after I raised it a bit. I also removed all the bud sites up to 6 inches above the soil (I use my thumb and pinkie, outstreched as a makeshift ruler) so I dont get a bunch of scraggly useless popcorn buds later on and the plants can divert energy to the main cola and fat side nugs.
I also transplanted the 3 cup girls I had into 1 gallons to grow to there max potential (fuck anybody who says not to transplant autos!!!
)

Okay guys as promised, I finished the layouts of each plant at day 40 (20/4 the past few weeks)
and I wanted to share them with yall so without further ado, here they are. lemme know what your guys opinions are or which plants you might have selected for breeding, aromas havent fully developed just yet so I want to save the smell test for a few more weeks but Ill do fresh layout of them at day 60, 70, 80 and maybe 90. There are a few that have lost there name tags and the 3 cup transplants too but none of them were anything special so i said meh and skipped them lol.
oh and btw for me its lookin like #5 and #11 are pulling ahead of the pack
sorry about the picture quality my camera sucks

Hey guys! so ive been thinking a lot lately and I want to make a more efficient system for growing big autos with minimal space wasted, one of the big setbacks is the transplanting issue and I feel like I may have finally figured out a way around it. I am also trying to find the most efficient way to grow single cola "lollipop autos" to grow in between vegging photos and a more efficient system for my tote grows.
SAFETY FIRST!!!!
I know burning plastic is a 1 way ticket to cancerville so I covered my mouth and nose with a baklava with a rag underneath before I got to work.
This took me quite a bit of time but I made holes in 50 recycled cups (from old grows) and found a stack of cups that they fit into so now I have planted my 24 hour soaked F6 beans that I will be selecting from into the cups and we wait
the Citrus dominant line was first to show taproots and already has 1 plant above ground today. Cheese doms a bit slower to get goin.
