if you interested mo, i have a sative strain(3 years in the works, i dont know what F it is on, beyond F3 not to mention i probably started form a pure strain.) started with bag seed came out straight sat. and worked from there but it some fire now, a real big bitch, planned on having my hand at a few outdoors this year. but its ape style and i doubt ill get a damn thing for all the hard work i know im gonna put in.I have been working that clay soil for a few years supplementing it with organic soil. Then before I started I mixed in a bunch of bone and blood meal and put down a dusting of Sevin powder to kill off any earwigs or other soil bugs. Watered with the hose mostly and supplemented with FloraNovaBloom in a 5 gallon bucket of pH 6.7 hose water that had sat out for a day. Sprayed with neem and BT for bugs monthly (probably could have done it more like every two weeks).
The plant was a seed I started indoors on Feb 4th and sprouted on Feb 10th. I proceeded to snap the seedling's stem and miraculously got it to regrow. Topped the indoor plant on April 15th and grew the big top in a cloner dome until April 30th. Then I started putting the clone outside for a little bit each day and on May 1st I planted the "Big Clone" in a 30 gallon trash can full of organic veggie soil. I also took a tiny clipping and grew it in a shot glass on a window sill until it had a bunch or roots. I planted this "Micro Clone" on May 5th in the ground and it grew to be the biggest plant.
They are 100% Sativa so I think they could have been even bigger under better conditions.
Cheers,
Mo
in relation to the above pic i would have to say "domesticated" means selective breeding therefore a larger healthier fruit that is different genetically makes sense, according to that pic that is what im seeing going on. i have pollinated same plant(clones) with the same pollen outdoor and indoor when i harvest the outdoor here in a couple weeks ill know whether this is true or is soil has a bearing on seeds shape and size ect.
