I've got a good clone guy I can pass you on if you'd like, he's not cheap but it's guaranteed top quality snips and all his gear is tried and tested! Seeds are always a gamble, but if you get lucky there's nothing better is there, ugorg have some good gear and a few new lines out too check them out pal

I've got a run going at the moment once my cuttings root and I find space for them somehwrre I can flick into flower ... I have 5 female gmo zkittlz to whittle down to a keeper and 4 fem seeds to grow out and maybe find a good one out of the four diff strains but after that I might take you up on the offer ... I don't mind paying for quality and that's the best way for his genetics to stay out of the public is by people paying for them less likely to give anything out if it costs a pretty penny :weed:

I didn’t run that one myself.
Ended up getting a load of the church crosses.
Haven’t had a bad plant from any of his packs over the years though.
my cut of purple cheddar is still doing the rounds here and it’s coming on 8years old.
Purple cheddar sounds good tho never looked at many cheese crosses , they're has to be loads out there

You read my mind mate lol.

Yesterday i thought to myself should the occasion arise I'd rather smoke that trim than make hash make from it which I'd only smoke reluctantly, on the other hand I'd happily smoke dry sift anytime it's a cut above bubble hash.
100% agree bubbles ok but not hash the way i like it good dry sifts the only way to go i think barring the rare great hand rubbed import ive tried years ago all the best hash ive tried has been dry sift regardless of country of origin i just miss all the good import stuff we used to get tbh to me its the next best thing making your own once you get it down

Hey all. 1st time grower in UK here.
I've decided I want my final smoke to be a pure one so I'm growing a single plant for my final smoke at Xmas. I'm using NOTHING except sunshine and rainwater. No chemicals or nutrients have ever been added.
Just wanted a more experienced opinion on how my baby is doing. She is on her last day of week 5 flowering.

Advice welcome. I'm looking at harvesting around the 9th Oct. Was gonna do Sept 30th but advised to wait until 9th Oct. Plant image from 4 days ago but trichomes are yesterday's pic.

Also how long is curing time on average? See220908_141935.jpg20220905_155712.jpg

Welcome to the forum.
Looks nice bro but has a bit to go, as @conor c says there's a lot of white pistols still.

The best help i can give is don't look at trichs as a gauge of a plants maturity.

Look for no white pistols being thrown, the pistols themselves receding back into the calyxes, the calyxes will swell during this period and there's a lot of weight getting put on...

It's not unusual for the branches to collapse under they're own weight...it's about now I'd check the trichs.

Thank you for the advice. I'll keep check on the pistils then as well as the trichomes for the potency. Are you able to gauge how much bigger I can expect the buds to grow in comparison to how they are now. 2x/3x bigger??

Also what's the average yield for outdoor plat like mine?

I've never grown anything successfully outside its not something I know anything about.

How much more weight
I'm not sure tbh, I'd guess around 20/30%
From one day to the next they can put on enough weight to fall over.

That could just be the straw that broke the camels back idk but it's not unusual for lower branches to start folding in the last days.
