I love it bro. My little 5 pack of NoGoo containers came today too. I think Pros posted them up a few days ago. I love the mats.

This is a mix of Iced Grapefruit, and Menage a Trois like I said i was gonna do. I can't wait to get to try this out. The flavor potential here is quite exciting, and the potential of the potency is limitless. This is all just trim, so my thoughts on blasting flowers for the best oil has been shattered with this run. I was always getting this unwanted chlorophyll in my oil, but have figured out how to keep it out this time I think. The color is alot better this run than the last couple with trim. It's a pretty amber again like the last flowers I did, and the smell is already out of this world. Sweet fruity pebbles, and a hint of spearmint or menthol. Just killer!! I can already tell this will be just stupid tasty, and potent. On a lighter note I think both my Bay11 regs went female for me. I'll take some pics later, and confirm, but I'm pretty sure they're a couple of ladies. That's kind of funny actually, I popped em in the hopes of finding a killer dude. Then the one had the leaf mutation, and I said to myself "I don't want that one to turn male" then the other one looks so nice so that would have made a good male with it's structure, and everything, but it turned female too I think. I really wasn't planning on having this many ladies, and am contemplating turning my veg closet into a flower closet to run them all, and kind of start over so to speak. I just hate the thought of flowering all those ladies under T5ho's, and not hid's. I've seen decent enough grows with T5's and all, but I'm gonna try, and get them all in the tent if I can. I also have the option of running what I have in the tent to end, and then just doing a massive super scrog with the other ladies when it clears. I don't like the idea of running so many different strains like that though. It can make your life hard when trying to harvest. I have options, and will have to go through them all soon. I could always gift a couple before they're monsters too. There's always clone now, grow later as well, so there won't be any waste of life people. Take it easy everyone, enjoy your day. Peace out.

Nice oil man. I love the smells too. The way you described the process with the warm vapors was perfect. My oil tastes and smells like warm orange rinds with hints of cinnamon. You have created a monster.

WOW. The Iced Grapefruit looks DELICIOUS! I know you guys are really amped on the oil, but man oh man that bud is gorgeous! Looks like the perfect density, frosty as hell, but what I like most is it looks, well, kinda elegant is the only word I can think of.
That makes me feel like a FATTY. So let me skin one up then :) I need to get insanely high after seeing that lol.

Myco, you are an ARTIST.

Lemon peel and cinnamon... Gandalf that also sounds like some BOMB oil bro!!! I am going to dream some really dank dreams tonight. That sounds MAGNIFICENT.

Whoops orange not lemon lol... In my home language an orange is a 'lemoen' so I make that mistake very often :)

I'm lovin the flowers Hamish, but I've always had access to flowers, not so much the concentrates though. Orange, and cinnamon sounds like a pretty bomb combo there Gandalf. The flowers on those plants would have been amazing I bet. I can't seem to make this Blue O.G. happy folks. I look at Prosperian's, and she looks happy, and beautiful, mine not so much I think. It had a bunch of problems in veg with slowing down, and not taking the topping so well at times. Then she was angry about her nutes, showing signs of Mg def, and maybe Cal too. Now the thing is bleaching at the top of a cola when the damn thing hasn't gotten any closer to the light, and her watering has been right on as well. It's been a constant temp in the tent, and everyone else is completely happy with the situation in there. That dang B.O.G. is a fussy bitch I tell ya. I'm sure it's my pheno, and all, but it's not making me want to grow her again in the future unless the potency blows me away or something, IDK. I received one fem seed of her as a freebie, and that's the one I'm growing now. I also picked up a 5 pack of seeds, but one was cracked when I got them so I still have 4 left to mess around with. The Sour Blueberry is a strain I would like to get a hold of more seeds for future grows. I have some Sour Diesel#2, and Lemon Thai Kush from Humboldt Seed Organization as well, I think they'll be nice to grow too. I've seen a grow of the Lemon Thai Kush, and it was really amazing the way she frosted up. I got those and the Lemon Kush from Female Seeds to get some lemonene in my garden. I've decided to gift one of my Bay11's to a family member now that I'm pretty sure it's a she. I popped too many seeds at once, and gummed up the works for now. The stupid thing is I need to start a couple of seeds soon to keep everything going smoothly. I was talking about maybe cloning, and then getting rid of, but I would rather see someone else enjoy the girl if I can't. She's still only 2 feet tall or something with the planter so I'll just pop her in a box for em, and send her on her way. This will open up space for my seedlings, and also make the others happy I think. I'll probably gift another to a friend as well, and then I'll be back on track again. That will take me down to 5 ladies, and then just the four when I pop one in the flower tent before the weekend I think. Then I'll start 2 more seeds that are fem or 2 regs per wanted plant at a time. I know with regs sometimes you get 50/50 male female, and then sometimes you get two males or two females, like I just did with the Bay11's. It keeps you on your toes that's for sure, but it's alot of fun as well. I like trying to guess what the sex is by structure, and then being surprised by the results is always fun too. I'm still gonna be looking for that killer male to pass on it's traits to a lucky girl. I really want to stay away from just chucking some pollen around, and spend some time looking for the ONE guy who will actually be worth spending time on, you know. It's easy as hell to make a new strain, it's hard as hell to make a new strain worth growing. If I spend my entire life making one good genetic match it will be worth it, I completely mean that whole heartedly. I refuse to pair something together out of desperation to just make something new. I want this to be worth someones time they spend growing it out. I know that's a tall order for your first cross, but I think if I aim high I could possibly pull something out the first time worth while. One other thing is I don't want to just take 2 popular strains, and simply mix them either. If i do that I would want to put a third in at some point to make it more original. I know sometimes you can get something really incredible by mixing the best, but that's too easy, you know. Alot of the time it's a couple of strains you've never heard of that make the best combos in the end. I do know I'm gonna pop the rest of my Menage a Trois regs, and see what comes out of them pretty soon I think. I figure if I even get one to pop again, and it comes out male I can cross it with something to see what kind of traits it passes on, and go from there with it. I would hate to lose this strain altogether. I know that sounds like what I was just saying I didn't want to do, but this one is just for me. Other ones I want to make will be for other peoples meds in the future(maybe). The cross with the MaT is something I want to play with for fun, and who knows maybe something will come of it. Have a great day everyone. Peace and love.

Myco, I often have to pass girls along to somebody. Me and a mate have a very nice 'buddy system' he just took my Sinmint Cookies off me, but I can go fetch a clone any time I need to. So he'll not only hold onto them but grow out and find the different phenos before I go choose, and in return he can always have any cut out of my garden. Between us we managed to hang onto our favourite NYCD pheno for 7 years, a serious mis-communication means we are now still trying to buy a cut back from another guy that we traded some out to. He went commercial with it and it's fetching ridiculous prices so he's not in the mood for sharing, sigh.

So I think you made a good move. You can get a cut back any time, right?

That Lemon Thai Kush gets MASSIVE. I can't wait to see the heavy, oily stinky colas you'll get from her. Incredibly potent weed. The one I saw and toked from tasted like pina colada kinda. Surprising and dry, unusual flavour but in a very good way. I've been eyeing it for a long time now.

You want the whole Lemon Pledge thing going down eh? I LOVE LEMON PLEDGE yum yum yum. Wish I could just pop over and drop you a Tahoe clone. Pure lemon pledge skunk funk of note.

Exciting times for you, new genes entering the garden :) AMPED to see how this rolls!!!!

PS: Guys... these teas can sure stink it up wow LOL...

I bet the Blue OG is a phenotype thing. My BOG is in the 3rd week or so of flowering so I will be watching her very closely my friend. Perhaps yours is so Sat dom she doesn't like to eat a bunch. I hope she gets happy bro. I think G13 is a solid company. Hang on to the beans and vault them. You'll find her balance. I have to remember that not every plant is a champion. We do the best with what the genetics give us.

I wanted to say that some of your pictures are so amazing bro. All are great, but a few are truly the best pictures I have seen of gardens. I really mean that. You are the man Myco. Talk to you all soon.

Hamish...the teas do smell. My wife gets so pissed at me. I do them all in our bathroom in the shiny white hot tub.

Thank you so much Gandalf, and you too Hamish. You both are genuinely kind, and loving people, and am so glad you come in here and share like you do. It's a real blessing to be able to share my garden with people who appreciate it as much as I do. I love to go through all your pics as well, and get great ideas, and just peruse through all the eye candy. I have to agree Hamish those teas if you do them right smell like crap bro. You just can't replicate those results with any other product or mix of however many. They are THE best thing for your plants I think hands down. Matter of fact I think I should start brewing a nice bloom tea today as the last watering was just cal/mag water. I think it could only help the Blue O.G., and boost the Sour Blueberry into the stratosphere with frosty yumminess. It really is a super nice plant I.M.O. and if the finished product is any good I'll be filing this strain under the super bad @$$ category like the Skunk#1. Now I understand the Skunk#1 doesn't have crazy potency like alot of more modern strains, but when you can throw a seed in soil, and have a plant almost grow itself, and come out like it does, that's a killer strain folks. If the Sour Blueberry is pretty much the same way, and the Potency is better, and maybe even the taste well I'll keep that around, you know. The more strains I grow out in the future I'll even find more of these type, and they'll hopefully keep getting better for me as well. The Cindy99 in the veg closet is alot like this maybe a little more trouble just as far as training her, and all. I only say that because after she grows in a certain shape she almost impossible to re-train somehow as she's like a friggin tree, and quite solid. I think I'll either be bringing her up next or maybe the BubbleGummer. Either one won't be real large, but she'll stretch, and fill in fine for some quick meds. I really want to work the Iced Grapefruit into a beast of a bush before I flip her so she's out of the question right now. I would like to put something in that would be finishing about the same time as the Green Poison, but that's a pretty fast strain, or so I'm told by the breeder, IDK. I do know that the Cindy99 is a really fast finisher so that's a strong possibility to go in next. I really like all the possibilities you get to throw around with keeping girls in veg like this though. Whenever I give a lady away I can always go pick up a cut if I want too, that's never a problem. I like to gift plants anyways when I can, it makes me happy to see them provide someone with some nice meds. I know first hand it can be really hard to diversify your garden at times, so a little gift to pay forward some smiles is always worth it. This medicine should not be kept from anyone, that's not why it's on every dang continent except Antarctica, nobody is suppose to be there anyways. This is suppose to be for everyone, non-addictive, healthy depending on how you consume, and has never killed anybody, EVER! Anyways, the garden is coming right along, and everyone seems happy for the most part. I've heard about the lemony Tahoe O.G. i was just looking for a slightly bigger plant, but hopefully the same tight og flower structure. I know that's asking alot, but we can all dream right. I think i'll definitely be vaulting the Blue O.G. for now. I'm not so hasty as to give away the remaining seeds yet. I definitely think there's potential in there, but just got a not so satisfactory pheno this time is all. I have high hopes the next one will be that much better. I have alot of gardening to do today to get the ladies ready for flower so I'll be on, and off the net most of the day. I always have the mobile app to keep current though, I really do love that thing. Take it easy folks. Peace and love.

I've been trying to collect the lemon flavours for a while now they're not that easy to find really so I will be watching REALLY closely :) Have you ever grown out anything by OG Rascal? I am very interested in their Fire Alien Master, and FAK x Master Kush. Looks so yummy!

https://www.cannabis-seeds-bank.co.uk/og-raskal-seeds-fire-alien-master/prod_3579.html

I've now learned to not go asking about breeders as a new thread... It WILL end up being 80 percent blah blah blah of the negative order. I am now only asking people I trust, really the best way. Hope you guys won't mind if you see my garden eventually filling up with stuff you've grown!

I think that's actually how it goes, you see someone grow a strain out, and it blows your mind, next thing you know you're growing it. You never know how a strain is until you see someone you trust grow it, and give you some honest info on it. I had an auto once that was crazy lemony. I think it was a Mig-19 from Auto Seeds, but that's what really got me interested in the whole lemonene terpene. It was a great pain killer for an auto, but the yield sucked like usual with them. i decided to go after some real lemon strains after that though. I have always been a big fan of Lemons, and Grapefruit as breakfast food, and love citrus. I thought the tastes would be killer to find in cannabis. I really like fruit in general, and sometimes find myself eating almost just that in a day until dinner. I also have low blood sugar so I'm always eating some sugar, or sweet fruity stuff. I eat dried fruit like it's going to be gone forever the next day. I think it would be pretty cool to find a papaya pheno of something, that would be something to write home about I think. I haven't have the pleasure yet to grow any O.G. Raskal gear, but have heard most of it's fire though. I have so many seeds now to keep me busy, I find it difficult to find ambition to look at new strains. I like to keep current don't get me wrong, it's just that I like to keep track of what I have pretty closely so I know what I'll need to keep me stocked with a little of everything as far as indicas, and sativas, and cannabanoid profiles. I'm really trying to keep a more broad spectrum of meds on hand as I know this is very helpful to me. Mono-cropping really isn't the best option for me or I would just do giant scrogs, and stock up on meds. I've found that having different cannabanoid profiles around, even if not really strong or intense, helps to alleviate the different symptoms I have from all the crap I ended up with. People think global warming is the worst thing we've done to our planet, and I'm telling you now that is the magician holding your attention while the real stuff is happening in the other hand. Our atmosphere, and soil, and all is so messed up we're all getting cancer at very alarming rates folks. I think Canadians are up to 1 in 2 now, that's 50% of all canadians getting cancer, WTF.(they live above America no wonder) Seriously though our planet is in some trouble, and so are we as a people for what has been done to it. All in the name of profit might I add. So the rich are off on an island somewhere or dead by now, and we have to live with their CRAP they left behind so they could line their pockets, and send their heirs to harvard. We just get the cancer and suffer, and get backed into a corner to buy their friends expensive chemical drugs because it's the only thing legal you can get for it. Then you make that @$$hole rich, suffer, and then die. Yeah, I don't think so! Sorry about all that. Anyways, I'm gonna go farm for a while and calm down some with a phat joint I think. Take er easy guys. Peace out.

I'm running the freebie BOG too. Thanks for the compliments and believe me when I say, it's the plant and not the grower. I see your work and can confidently state that as fact. It reminds me of what I share with my sales force about dealing with new prospects and rejection... Some will, some won't, so what, next.

This Blue OG of yours just doesn't want to cooperate. Focus on the plants that are responding to your attention. I also agree with not writing off the entire strain because of a bad pheno. Might see a whole different plant with the next seed. I have to say this BOG has been my best specimen out of the bunch and I will be looking forward to seeing how she smokes.

Thanks bro, all that really does make me feel alot better for some reason. I love the simple yet completely holding to truth wisdom that is "Some will, some won't, so what, next!" You can't make something work the way you want, no matter how bad you want it too, or try at it. Sometimes it's better to let it go, and just move your attention elsewhere. I won't neglect the poor thing, but I don't think I'll spend tons of time trying to do much with her anymore. I was already planning on buying a bigger extractor tube for my oil endeavors, and am now thinking I'm just going to harvest the top 6-8 inches of all the colas, so I'll have some decent flower meds, and blast the rest for oil. That way i can stock up on some really nice oil, and not be wasting what you could call nicer flowers for it. It's kind of a win win, you know. I don't waste actual good medicinal flowers, and I get to stock up on good strong meds for when I'll need them in the future. Plus that has the added bonus of being able to keep futute trim for some nice dry ice hash to have on hand as well. I was thinking about picking up a small machine to make bubble hash, but found buying an oil extractor tube to be alot cheaper, and my dry ice hash always comes out better anyways, at least as far as taste is concerned. I was even watching a video on how these guys put there hash in a seal-a-meal bag, and put it on the top of boiling water, and de-carbolyzed it I think to get out any remaining Co2. The small bag inflated, and they popped it with a needle to let out the gasses. I'm sure that would help alot, and there are alot of ways to do that really. So next time I'll hook up the extra procedure to my dry ice hash, and let everyone know how it helps, if it does, who knows. Until then I think I'll be shopping for a bigger tube, and this time I'm sure I'll be going glass. I think I would like to watch any reaction that's going on anyways, I've missed out on that up till now. Other than a bigger tube though I have the rest. I do still need some better tools for dabbing though. It's embarrassing to admit but I'm using a stainless steel pick from a nut cracking set right now. I need to get some wax carving tools to work with, and dental tools are killer too if you can get a hand on a couple.(I don't mean steal either) They help alot when you're working with the oil, before it all turns to crystals on you that is. When the stuff is gooey though you really don't want it sticking into every nook and cranny of your fingerprints. Oh, and BTW it does nothing for a cut, OUCH this S#*t burns! is pretty much what you'll be screaming. And no I was not testing it's medicinal qualities as a disinfectant or anything, complete mistake I assure you. It's hard to dance around like an idiot for too long though when you have precious oil on a griddle going to go bad if you don't attend it. Small sacrifice for the greater good in the long run, LOL. I'll definitely be keeping the Blue O.G. around for the future as I truly do think she has something special to show me still. I look at your grow Prosperian, and think to myself "If she can do that with absolutely no nutes besides what's in some bagged soil, I know I can grow this thing out,". Yours really looks nice bro, I so mean that. Healthy, beautiful color, great structure, not one sign of ever having any environmental, or nutritional stress. I guess my soil was a little "Warm" for her or something, LOL, IDK. I still have the 4 seeds like I said cause the cracked one in the five, so I'll have a couple more shots at her, and probably get like you said, a completely different plant. It'll be fun to run that much oil anyways, and maybe make myself sick of it for a while, who knows. Thanks for the kind words brother, it's amazing how another point of view can open your eyes like that, you know. Have a great day everyone. Peace and Love.

LOL... Oh hell yeah it burns! You should try eating some, my GODS. Of all the things I expected, a spicy burn was not one of them oh no. Report back on how the cut HEALS, though. I've never used it on a fresh wound, only in the 'regenerative' phase. I'd love to know if what I observed was the good ol 'placebo' a few times. Did do a helluva job on melanoma, though, saw that with my own eyes. But I really am very, very interested in the healing process after.

You know when you hurt yourself next to the sea, it also burns like a beeeatch... But heals SO fast!

My father in law just had a cancerous growth cut from his leg. We only found out yesterday that it IS indeed cancerous, right on his wife's birthday, so the medical benefits are once again what interest me most deeply. My humble apologies for making science out of your accident Myco, but I figured observation doesn't hurt, at least I didn't ask you to put it on there. Muahahahaha.

But seriously, you don't want to eat it.

Forgot to add, if I do use it medicinally it is usually dissolved into alcohol before even getting all the gas out of it. Not for smoking nor internal use, and much easier to apply... I think on it's own it's going to be a feeling akin to pouring whisky on a cut... You know it's working, but DAMN.

I have to say for all the stinging, and burning the thing never really even bled. It was a super clean cut with a razor blade, but it just bled a little bit, stung like all get out, and that's about it. I put a band aid on cause I was making hash, but when I took it off later to clean up what I thought would be a nasty cut, there wasn't even blood in the band aid really. Just a tiny bit from when I had smashed my finger later, and if it didn't bleed from that I would be thinking it was a miracle from above. Even then it seemed to have healed back up almost instantly. It's funny that you mention this cause i was just in the veg tent messing with my ladies, and noticed I had a small pain in my finger when I was moving a pot. I then remembered I had cut it, and noticed I couldn't tell where almost. The pain was just arthritis, but I have a tendency to look at my hands sometimes when they hurt to make sure they're not swelling on me or I put my gloves on for some compression. Otherwise i would have never thought about it again I think, but the thing has healed quick speedily to be honest. They have this stuff called liquid bandage, and it's basically super glue, but it doesn't heal like the oil, only seals, and disinfects. This could be a band aid boon, LOL. I'm really sorry to hear about your wifes dad, I know first hand that cancer can be quite a destructive beast within a family. I hope him all the best, and know you'll hook him up with "The Cure" if he asks. It's fortunate that he has your know how to rely on, if he so chooses to put it to use. I've been taking a little each day, and putting it in gel capsules, and swallowing them like vitamins. I can tell you right now my anxiety has been alot better, and I'm also sleeping better at night. It's not much either, I think I may be putting about 1/5 of a gram to 1/4 in each one everyday. It's enough to have fun with during the day, or sleep alot better at night, and not be anxious either. Not a hard decision really. I know it won't be a magic pill for everyone, but it's working for me pretty good so far. I haven't got any heart burn or indigestion from it either, so I'm pretty sure it's cool to be ingesting it like this. I don't think it could be any worse than inhaling it into your lungs after putting fire to it. I've been working on a few things today, and will reveal them later or maybe in the morning depending on how timing works out. I have pretty much made my mind up about the Blue O.G. being a 3/4% oil sacrifice. So that leaves me with some room in the tent. I'm not taking the B.O.G. out or anything, she'll have the time she needs to finish. I'm just gonna inch her out of the way a little sooner than usual from the better light, and make room for fresh blood is all. That being said I need to go back to work folks. Peace and Love.

Oh I deserve a smack upside the head... Gel Caps. My stars I never made that mental leap myself. I sometimes dissolve it into green tea or coffee, but a simple gel cap is sooo obvious. I even have some around that I used for ground shrooms a while ago.

I'm going to start doing the same, eat some oil in the morning and try cut back on the actual amount of smoking I do in the day. Knowing plants, the effective medical dose should be waaaay under the effective narcotic dose, so I will try find a measurement to keep it at JUST noticeable.

I have a strong feeling the oil might offer an easier balance for sick people that want the benefits but can't handle the high, as does happen quite often. It really might end up being bit of a breakthrough as far as medicinal cannabis goes!

Thanks again for your reply, in this way our common knowledge base grows, and that is the best thing I could dream of :) Isn't unity awesome?!

myco, does your wife smoke? Mine has tried it a couple times a year ago by vape and didn't have a good experience. Said her head was spinning, nausea, and went to sleep. I was thinking about making her some edibles like cookies or chocolate. That woman loves chocolate.
