FlowaMasta's Methodology @ How to Grow Monster pound plants!!! ( Jack H X Skunk )

[Scroga]

Sweet tooth?

Renamed......Aussie Gold! Har de har..

I likitalot.

....Funny stuff!

I will say that it has a skunk look to the leaf structure in a way, but built like a skyscraper too... maybe a northern lights type cross?? Its definitely an older strain if its true Acapulco Gold, so some type of original landrace cross I presume....someone help me here Im reaching... all I know is if there is a list I need to be on to get some genetics like that let me know what I have to do to get on it...-S0uP

Lol!! i dunno man! i kinda feel like i picked up someone's winning lotto ticket but then again, maybe that person didn't deserve it and luck came my way... for once
glad i have seeds of her, and making babies soon some little clones!! I'm getting this out to a few close mates see if they can break her in She was a bit of fart to hold up straight with those 250 gram colas but the oven twine held in top the end...... BUT i won't be using that again lol, a screen this time for sure.

lukin good mon.
im otay mon.
finally got my set up ready to go.

Awesome to hear Dr Trich

I'll respond with some more memories of my porn.

and this one for shits and giggles.

I really wouldn't know for sure, if i was gonna guess i'm thinking skunk background BUT not.... if you know what i mean!? its got that strong familiar smell like skunk, but its different, yet still identifiable. I've also found mixed results confirming both sativa/indica varieties , so it was certainly crossed a long way down the line and has a very unique structure about her probably due to personal preference from many breeders....

If i was to compare to different strains with Amster it would be near impossible. It has soft mellow smoke like northern lights and a citrus twist like white widow, then it has this unusual hash like after taste that sinks into your gums and you literally taste for the next few inhalations of breath! She doesn't taste like she smells, but she does look like she bites thats not to say she smells bad though! no sir, i just can't put my finger on it! its buttery...... no literally buttery smell, but a hint of muskiness if you can sniff past the first violent fumes and aromas..... LOL.

I will say she surprised the FUCK outta me.... excuse the language for the broadminded and is sure to please again!

I definitely think you're right with the skunk background, its the other indica side thats got me stumped. The only info i could find was that it was originally bred by sensi back in the 80's and then they stopped selling it and dutch passion started selling it as Amstel Gold, it then had to be renamed as Amstel brewery didnt want their bame attached to weed and DP name it Passion #1. Apparently its a skunk x californian indica hybrid. God knows what the hybrid is though you got yourself a heirloom strain bro, keep it locked up tight

You and that camera make one happy couple!!! Cheers for the info in Soup's thread mate! I was going to change things around next grow, but after the success of this one I am not going to change to much any more. My two plants went crazy this run and it has taken two weekend's to pick. Here is a pic of Moby Dick's roots. Grown in 50 Litre pots with a grate in the bottom.

I have never seen root growth like this on any of my plants before. All i can say is I LOVE the hempy method, and bloody glad I found your thread ages ago I am heading for a new personal best

Cheers Chipper Pig

Flowa's method wins by as country mile. Get into it Mohican!!

 

[Scroga]

still trying to figure it all out myself..

 

[flowamasta]

Got day 21 Veg comin at ya!!! BTW I haven't tipped, snipped or touched this plant with a single blade yet, just bent her over like a good girl

 

[Scroga]

So bent over as a clone? And then released later? ......got couple tied to see what happens...

Hey Flowamasta, I accidently found this grow journal doing a google search for something and just spent all my spare time over the last three days reading this grow from pg 1.
So thankful that you decided to experiment and share your results with like minded people.
Suffice to say I'll be changing my system after a current coco/perlite Acapulco Gold grow is finished over to yours.
To me it just makes sense and the proof is in the pudding.
I'm going to upscale it a bit and use a 115lt bucket in bucket system and see what happens.
btw I'm an aussie on the east side somewhere just north of Sydney ... maybe we're close?
Keep up the good work and enjoy the fruits of your inquiring mind.
PS Love your bud porn mate and your wife's boobs (great shot) ... mmmm boobies ... what's not to like

actually she's still tied down, she's probably no taller than 1 foot. But maybe 3 foot wide +. Tying down helps the lower branches see more available light so they produce more growing hormones, and equalizes the growth pattern a bit. Very much similar to Lordjin's method = less stress, while still creating more tops without hurting the plant. Stress would be minimal at best. Cloning happens tonight she should bush out after this bigtime!!!

WOW!! on a google search!? lol that is amusing!

Thanx for the awesome compliments and great input!
Did i read right? you grew Acapulco Gold? I have read somewhere that my current strain is a cousin or family line of Acapulco....
I understand your wanting to upgrade your bucket size, i myself have thought alot about this, and for my needs i dont need much bigger if anything at all, BUT saying that, i still manage to fill the pot entirely with roots including the lower section in the bottom pot! There is no reason why you couldn't use 115litre bucket, but prepare for more nutrient usage, perhaps a little less efficient, but ok if you got the money! I'm thinking somewhere in the middle between the 2 sizes and maybe a change of shape could be beneficial... 115 is alot of medium! thats 1 of those big 5 foot long bags of perlite You going for 4 plants or something in the 1 pot with less veg time? that could be ideal. You could be onto something, except for the 4 plants being more than 'perso' in the boys of blue eyes. As to why i only grow 1 monster. Or try to only grow 1 hehe.
I'm alot further down south than sydney, but the world is starting to look alot smaller! so we're not really that far apart Aussie
LOL glad you like my ladies lady lumps I have 3 girlfriends, and there's 2

approx how tall was she when you tied her? Mine are prob inch or two, ben reveging for fortnight (clone taken in flower)
They seem to be branching..

mine had roots by the stage i tied her the first time, bu she was maybe 1/2 foot tall then, so she was thin and scragly under the tiny 11 watt globe so she bent over kind of easily then, just bit by bit each day! So now the tallest section of the plant ( well the tip of the actual plant anyway! ) is on the side, and alot lower than most of the plant, she will be the biggest main clone which i will do magic on

Maybe let the clone take off a little then bend her over, let her soak up some energy and build an immunity system.

yeah, i checked that out, definitely different.
I'm not sure what's going on with Eastys thread, might be some sort of code error happening with my mac or something!?

You animal
Oh the leaves 'look' gold, just the iso setting being so low, its sort of squeezing an image out of 3 different spectrums all output at different frequencies so i get about 3 different coloured shots even using the same setting depending on angle or light directed at, and colour spectrum setting on the camera very handy, and very awesome but it took me a long time to work out how to get the right settings to allow the detail to soak through aswell.... They're all green DARK green, don't worry about that Dr. She licks her plate clean!

Day 24 veg. After a mass topping and birth to 6 baby Amsters
