Sorry to hear that buddy.

Got my 3 seeds down. I decided to throw a 3rd seed into the mix as I was worried after 48hours that neither the Thai or haze seed had popped so I threw a jet 47 into the mix. Another 48 hours and the jet has popped, so has the Thai express. The haze seed popped but only a very small tail. I've planted all 3 into there homes this morning and an hoping for the best with the haze.

I'm going to use 3 different techniques for each plant and see how each turns out.


From left to right.

All dirt is the same. Combination of coco, worm casting, perlite, kelp, Bone meal and small trace of high P bat guano.

At the base of each cut in have about 1/2 of 50/50 coco:bat guano which i am hoping for a nice boost as i move into preflower at week 2 and as the roots saturate the base of each cup.

Cup 1; fare left
Thai fantasie, auto, regular. If it turns out male I will harvest the pollin for later use and break off from the group.
This cup has small 1/4 fine river stone at the base for maximum drainin. 1/2 inch of high p bat Guano coco mix and topped with my regular mix.

Cup 2: middle
Jet 47 auto, regular, same goes here. If male I'll harvest the pollen and use for later.
This has no stone at the base, 1/2 of high P bat guano topped with a regular mix WITH watering crystals in te remainder of the mix for water retention.

Cup 3: fare right
Haze auto, fem.
For This plant i will be using a wicking system. The mix is the same with 1/2 of coco/ bat guano mix. And remainder regular mix. For the wicking water, I'll be using a very light kelp/worm casting tea for the first 2 weeks then moving to a High P guano tea as we move into flower

Let's hope all these beauties break ground. The only one worries me is the haze. I tossed another haze to germ in Case but it will be lagging a few days behind the group.

I am calling this Day 1 of grow!

Stay green people.

Seeing all these pics are.fucking me up... Empty jar til harvest

Nice be fun to see the difference. Mine is at day 1 still in "shell". Got a hydroton bottom with full perlite and will be adding waterballs on top when it is ready.

Have you had any experience with the devil before? I had 3 going in dwc. 1 special pheno made a mad bush with a hidden giant bud inside. Ah that grow made autos special for me. Hope its okay i share a bit photos. I expect nothing less from my cup

Of the 3 larger auto spyder's I showed yesterday. the one odd ball (alternate nodes) is a male!!! now I know what to look for. Should have dawned on me that males flower faster so node change would happen sooner too lol. I'll be able to pick a fem from the solo's


We need to chose 1 for the contest starting next moday right aknight????

CBD widow is up and went under the big led running 12/12 ...still waiting for the thai freebie.

And then the Mig-29 that was in a solo cup and has been drying for some ? days

Here's my spyders. bottom big one is a male

Those spyders look good might have to give em a try. Let me know if the male passes the auto trait.

Some real good competition here...

Yes FULLY stabilized since the F6 generation. I believe these are F8 or F9. But has been 100% auto since F5. Males are Purple pheno like the female.



Edit: Canned Abyss is the creator. he's on RIU just not often. Here's his Breeding thread for Spyder on IC https://www.icmag.com/ic/showthread.php?t=112296

Cool been looking into creating some auto beans. Weather will permit me to work with em down here pretty much all year. Ever tried crossing an auto male to a photo female??

Glad I seen your post. Wanted to ask, have you grew the CJ out b4 this run ?: I had ran it in my previous grow, and 2 be honest, it just didn't do like I had hoped for. It has much more leaf ratio then bud. Good strain to run if looking to make hash, or cannabutter. I have a ton of beans still left from this strain. Believe if I ever do run it again, I'm just goin place the outdoors. Hopefully they will do better outside.. hope yours turns out better then the 1 I ran..

No, I haven't grown it out before. It was a freebie from breeders boutique. I have smoked a bunch and really enjoyed the smoke so I'm going to give it a run. I've seen some from the same place over on the 600 and they looked good. I can pop up a pic if nobody minds from time to time if that will help you make up your mind. I am a noob at indoors though.

Seeing your post about Fl makes me home sick. I was born in Orlandyo. Now I live in the woods in the north east. It's freezing in the winters but I love the serenity of it. I watched my road I lived on go from a 2 laner to a 8 laner while I was going to school in the 80-90s

Going to be doing that next grow. Crossings i will be doing with Male Auto pollen are, Spyder x Blue Dream, Spyder x Cocoa Puffs, Spyder x Cotton Candy.

Also thanks to TEK's advise i am going to look into colloidal silver and Sierra's Mist for fem pollen. With that i will cross : Blue Dream x Cocoa Puffs, Blue Dream x Blue Thai, Blue Dream x Cotton Candy, and Blue Dream x Original Blueberry(1 of my strains on the way).

I want to see what comes out of that before i try to create or stabilize anything. I will eventually stabilize some of the auto crosses to become auto 100% but that's a lot of plants, time, and it'll take a huge chunk out of my personal smoke if i'm not growing for buds.

I lived in a town right on Lake Champlain for 5 years(city of Plattsburgh, My uncle was the mayor at the time. First openly GAY mayor in NY state. look that shit up hahaha... My uncle has his own Wikipedia site hahaha http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Daniel_Stewart_(politician)).


I know all about the negative temps and i know how early outdoor harvest is up there. 2nd-3rd frost is already coming on end of September most years. lol

But all in all it's still fuckin beautiful!!! to be able to walk a half mile to your neighbors house. not 4 steps BAM another building!
