The short season here is the main challenge. That and having to water daily unless your containers are over 30 gallons.

Here at elevation it's a "start em indoors" when you decide how big you want em to be @ finish. You CAN grow big bushes here but you'll be running 3 months indoors before you can set them out June 1...if yer lucky/it is warm enough. We have yet to see a killing frost here this year and that is VERY rare. El Nino rare. It is 34F out there right now though....so the morning cold is creeping in and it's been so DRY here we may see a freeze before we see a frost. Too much info...LOL... "coffee".

IF I were facing such humid conditions/rot I'd be growing autos that finished mid-Summer...or I'd have a designated room set up like yours...with a light and a dehuey...and I'd just bring em in an 12/12 'em to finish rather than risking the rot.

Best of luck!

I grow in the fog here, budrot is a big problem

The best resistance to rot I've ever found was Girl Scout Cookies (forum cut) x Zkittlez. Something about the nugs made it have zero rot while the rest of my garden got rampaged.

Damn that looks great. What was your yield on it?

The Valley Ice main colas have a nice foxtailing. A mold resistant phenotype im stabilizing in this strain. All of the ladies are on track to finish around mid November, possibly sooner.

The seeds are all looking grey and mature. I will be collecting hundreds f4 seeds at the end of the month. Testing dozens of seeds indoors over the winter.

Something has changed since I grew VEB outdoor back in 2018ish. Mine were all very similar, very indica single cola dom plants. Strong fresh outta the garden carrot terps. They didn't look anything like the pics you posted this year. Plenty of stickiness. I did run into some rot due to the flower density, but nothing that took all of a plant and they did yield extremely well.

Kinda sounds like Vashon added something else to the mix or recreated it with different parents.

Not sure what i grew I got 2 pacs thur JBC out of those 30 seeds i got 4 plants 2 females Reached out to Vashon an they replaced the 2 pacs But its plain to me not the same strain that JBC sent me. Its not even making the hash bin straight to compost full of rot. An I thought vashon did all their breeding in BC the seeds they sent me came out of Colorado just a shity deal for me wasted the whole season.
