This run will be for creating some new crosses and testing out some new clones for the first time. I'll be running Motorbreath 15, Purple Punch, Bubblegum, GMO x Granny Skunk and Useful Seeds Genius Thai Extreme x Chocolate Trip. They all will have a few branches pollinated for seeds with BOG's Blue Moon Rocks pollen I won from @Doug Dawson in a contest.
They're growing in a 5x5 Spider Farmer tent with a SF7000 quantum board LED from @Spiderfarmerled I won in a contest last year here on Rollitup. Pots are basic nursery plastic pots filled with Roots Organic original soil. Nutes will be Jack's classic formula using 3.6g for part A, 2.4g part B, and 1.2g Epsom salt for full strength. I've been feeding at 1/2 strength for the plants in the flower tent and 1/4 strength for the clones. This works out to roughly 1-1.4 EC.
I've done a lot of supercropping and topping for several strains that got too big in veg and hopefully I can keep em away from the light. All comments and questions are welcome.
Here are some pics of the plants.

Pics are from this week which is week one from flip to 12/12. Lights are running at 450 watts and LUX is between 30K-45K at top of the canopy in the center. I'll be dialing up the light as flower gets rolling.
Thanks for anyone that got through all that and they'll be shorter going forward I promise. Hope you're plants are healthy and trouble free.

Picking black berries with him hanging around makes for some quick picking. I have no need to see his claws any closer up than 5' outside my living room window.

Plants are looking good and the biggest issue I can see is the size of the MB15 and maybe the purple punch if it doesn't stop stretching. Buds have set on all plants and hopefully I'll give them the first pollination in 7 days. Here's a couple plant pics and hope y'all had a great weekend.IMG_20230716_172005233_HDR.jpg

Looking killer. Quite the structure on everything and I can see quite the yield on the way ! Great job and keep it up they’re loving the life. I love how that mb15 shape structure looks.. real bold and dark green.

Thanks, the MB15 is one of my wife's favorite strains. This is the biggest I've grown it so far and it yielded 7 ounces last run with a smaller plant. Hope I can keep it out of the light so it stays healthy.

That mb15 cross is the one I have my eye on. Where can I score a pack when complete
As long as I get enough seeds I'll be happy to send some to you. I'm still getting through the last pollination with the Blue Kush but the seed count on that has been small so far. I kept this batch of pollen in the fridge and am going to hit them all twice to try and up the seed count.

Stretch is keeping me busy in the garden this week. Trying to manage light levels with so many different strains and plant structures can be a full time job. Planning on first pollination on Sunday and then a second shot the following Sunday.
I'm really in love with the Useful Seeds Genius Thai Extreme x Chocolate Trip as far as the open structure on it and quick flower set after flip. Plus, it's from Useful who really created some great strains.IMG_20230718_184912624_HDR~3.jpg

I was planning on applying pollen today but the buds just don't look ready enough to my inexperienced eye. I'm going to give it 7 more days and then really hit the branches I've selected hard for maximum seed production.
The girls are looking nice and other than a third round of supercropping have been stress free.

Today was 28 days from flip so I decided to go ahead with the pollination. I hit Bubblegum, Purple Punch and Motorbreath 15 with pollen from BOG Seeds Blue Moon Rocks I got from a forum member on a different forum. I was way too careless this time as it's hot as hell in the grow and I just couldn't stay under the light for too long. I'm sure everything got hit but it's fine as I grew up smoking seeded buds and never really cared. I just wanted to make sure I get a decent amount of seeds this run. Here's a few pics and I'll update when I see some good signs it took. Hope everyone had a great weekend.
