[The TD seeds sometimes according to many reports need to be scuffed before germination- seed hull is sometimes very thick... seen it more than once here



Thanks C - we actually came pretty close to a pound overall - it's just really tough to weigh some of these buds as they are very fluffy and were hard to separate some of the leaf. We're still separating some of it as it cures and finishes drying in paper bags.



So sorry to hear about the bad luck with the seeds - we have a lot to be thankful for! Oh well, some things just aren't meant to be - I'm sure you have luck with other strains.. cheers!



:bongsmilie:



Fo sho man - I just put the next 2 seeds in paper-towel this evening. I took out the old waterfarm yesterday and sprayed it all down with the garden-hose. The hydroton took a while to clean up, but it's nice to now have some 'seasoned' hydroton - my speculations are that the plant going into the used waterfarm will start-out faster than the other for that very reason - but that will be part of the expiment - we'll see!

The next journal isn't started quite yet - watch for it in the next week though... 2 waterfarms, 2x 600w Hortilux EYE Super HPS cooltube lights... about twice the size of this last grow, but more indica dom strains this time...DON"T MISS IT!! :leaf:



I didn't follow any chart for the ppms I used - I just started low through veg and slowly bumped it up into flower. Since this grow had an extra long veg AND flower period, my rez went kinda 'sour' on me and I found quite a lot of nutrient buildup afterwards... I plan to dial-back my nutes next time and increase them much slower to try and control this better. The best advise I can get as far as nute ppm though, is to just increase them slowly, and watch your plant to 'tell' you if it needs more or less - as crazy as it sounds, you'll know what I mean after a few weeks of growing this way. =)



Good luck man - you'll see them grow quite a lot at this point I would guess - you should also notice that altohough they get to be quite large, they will remain fairly fluffy..but still very frosty!





Hey there - I wish I did have some cuttings, but the ones I took didn't last too long. I wanted to see how well they rooted, and they seemed to root decently in about 10 days. This info will be helpful for the next time I grow this strain out, in case I have the option to clone it in the future...[/QUOTE]

That plant was insane lol, 1 lbs 1 plant !! congrats and + rep
Thanks for the rep! Yeah we're very fortunate and thankful for our results - I don't expect this kind of luck every time, but the TD seemed to do quite well using these methods, just made for a super-long grow.

I started growing about April 1 st
The beans were straight from attitude and 4 of 5 germinated
3 made it
My girls are just so different in size 1. 9 feet 2. 11 feet. 3. 17. Feet tall
Weird thin fern like leafs very hot house bizarre canopy shape on the giant 17ft.
Wow, 17 feet tall? You must be growing outside..? Def not a scrog..? Was it TD?

I have pics but not sure how to post pics here
Let me know if you need some help posting pics - I'd love to see!

You ever get a complete final weight of everything?
It was impossible to get a definite final weight, since about 1/4 of it was dried seperately and still had some leaf in it - totally smokable, but we're still picking through it. We already made some bubble-hash and it's real nice!

Freaking incredible grow man, never seen one plant take off like that with a scrog, i mean your whole tent was fill up to the limit.
The scrog was only half of the reason for this, if that. The waterfarm is really the secret here, together with some extreme LST work that made for an extra-long veg time - longer veg-time = bigger plant.

Hi Dayzt.
I hope your doing well. I finally got to smoke the Tangerine Dream last week in Amsterdam at Barneys coffeeshop!:lol: It was DEEEElicious. I was hoping i would get a bud with some cool foxtails on it but it was still pretty, not as pretty as yours though!:lol:
I have ordered my waterfarm and im looking forward to getting it started in the next couple weeks. check out my tangerine dream bud here....later amber:leaf:

Hahahahaha beautiful,
glad to see Amber's back and well.

Excellent gardening Dayzt, that was impressive, to say the very least.
So for overall satisfaction on that grow, I'm guessing your at around 100% eh?
Haha. Good job brother:leaf:

We have much to be thankful for - the TD was a joy to grow, but such a looong wait. We'll have plenty of medicine in our cupboard for months to come! Now, i can't wait to see what else these waterfarms can do with some of the other strains I've been wanting to try.... :leaf:

My jaw is still on the floor! I've seen lots and lots of 400watt grows but this was truly inspiring.

TD is on deck for me after my current grow. You can bet I'll be picking through your meticulous notes. Thanks for documenting this sought-after strain with such detail. :clap:

I just read this from day 1, WOW. I wish I could grow but the truth is, I can't come to terms with all the different ways to grow. It is so confusing.

Holy shit dayzt, this was on a 400w?
Damn!
You said just under a pound?
That's still over 1g/w,
I can't wait to get my 400w MH going, you just tore it up with that bulb.
:leaf:
 
Hey man!
Nice to see another grow inspired by Scotty! :) I myself have taken his ideas and upped it a fraction, hehe.
I am truly amazed that your TD seed even germed!
Most of the people who have bought them have had 0% germination and the ones that managed to germ got mutant looking plants.
Fingers crossed yours is ok!

TD
hi
im new to this but bought 2 female seeds TD 1 floped and died and the other out grew cupboard and now looking like pic of TD times 20 in a m2:weed: using NFT dual 400w sunmaster canna nuts and blackstrap malassis
