looking nice. i'm glad you're breeding. i cringe when people tell me that they have purchased feminized once again. i understand space limitations etc but one male and female and you're good for years. seems like a no brainer.Almost forgot to put up the pic of the little plants that went into a tent yesterday to start 12/12. There's 8 or 9 Papaya and 8 or 9 NYPD (all reg seeds) and the two in the rear corners are a Blue Widow on the left and a Bubba Kush (both clones) on the right. I had a circulation fan fall on the Blue widow last night so now it's short one main branch that had some side branching on it
They're in 1/2 gal grow bags and are only a few weeks old. I just wanted to let them get a few nodes on them and then flower them so they stay small. Hopefully I get a nice mix of males and females to choose from out of them so I can make more seeds of these strains and a few crosses.
lol
Yeah came to the conclusion that harvesting in the morning is probably the best option, everything else seems like a waste of time to me.
I just repped ya thinking you were someone else! Lol im sure ya deserve it
Woo free rep lol.
Yes the butter will be consistent and the only way it wouldn't that I can think of would be if you use it in something that the butter doesn't thoroughly mix into like rice krispie treats. The butter doesn't really mix into the marshmallows as evenly as when cokking it into cookies and stuff and sometimes you'll end up wit a tray of treats that will have differing potency from one spot to another. The first batch of them I made was pretty inconsistent so the first treat I ate to get an idea of protions was way less potent than the next one I ate. That second one put me into orbit, lol. I had to sleep it off because I was having trouble just walking to the restroom. I try to mix them longer now and it helps but they're still not the same as cookies.
Looking at your males, if the others aren't showing they probably are females. If you look closely at a preflower, the only way I can spot a male before it's really obvious, the preflower of a male has a tiny stalk, a female preflower doesn't. Are you going to backcross the extrema male to an extrema female?
I know this is subjective but to you fatboy, what are your three best strains? I mean for your own taste? I remember reading about swiss bliss and I thought it was still available somewhere from a breeder? Being a sativa person my three favorites so far have been arjan's haze #1, sour cream and the acapulco gold I just finished. I also like the lemon skunk very much too and that is a good yielding plant.swiss bliss number 6 has given her life to the cause!
funeral pics tomorrow.
i love our hobby!
bonus! the matanuska male i used for breeding months ago has apparently left some presents in the tent. i now have a few seeds of ssh, swiss bliss and S.A.G.E. x matanuska!
Those guys are obviously in the wrong society, hope they stay where they are and don't come over here and try fucking with our happy, helpful, healthy society. They need to smoke a joint and chill, get some understanding going, not fighting.
What breeder did your AG come from, or was it one of yours from a long time ago?
Knock on wood. Twice.
i am no mite exterminator but i would say that you wont be killing them off from putting them in fridge with out treating the plants with some neem or azamax. youll definetely be able to stunt there reproduction rates and there movements will be slower from one area to another but i dont think cold will actually kill them. find yourself some diamatecuos earth for the top of the soil and give them a good spray down with some kind of mite killer and repellent. cold is also bad for your plants especially with no lights. no light they cant feed themselves and the cold will stunt them even more. good idea though of keeping them far away from your non infected plants, make sure if you look in on them that you clean yourself real well before checking in on your other plants to not bring those little fuckers into a different grow area.
man that's a tough one. off the top of my head i'd say the S.A.G.E., super silver haze and skunk #1 (which i bought back in 1995). it was real good back then. i have crossed these with other genetics but haven't tried most of the crosses yet.
You must be talking about either the Bubba Kush or the Blue Widow. They are the two on the left hand side behind the Dog Kush.that's a well laid out room. i should concentrate more on making mine easier to work in.
what genetic is that lovely indica with the big beautiful leaves! I WANT IT!
