Smiles speed run

Got a good bit of seed stock at the moment and since im all about veriety im going to see how many i can run though before next summers hit hits. The plan is to plant 2 seeds every 10-20days let them veg for 2-3weeks then put the one with more vigorus growth into flower and discard the other. Most of my stock come to me though @MtRainDog cant remeber the breeder on all of them but most are csi humbolt.

First up is big bad wolf (chemd x chem91) only one of the 2 sprouted(wendsday) and she needed a bit of help removing her helmet.

She will get a little extra time to veg and probably a bit of a head start on the rest of this project. Im waiting for an auto to come down and going to dry her it what will be my bloom tent when she dose, as got another few weeks before i can be sure the worst of the summer heat is past.

I planted a SLH X LVTK (super lemon haze X lost valley triangle kush?) yesterday.

For the most part i am going to try and load strains with longer bloom times to the front and back of the rotation.
I will be operating as if my plant limit is 9

So just a little about my set up and how I hope this rotation will work come late fall/winter. Once every thing is in full swing i will veg in my 2x4x5 under a sunco 40w t5/8 style blurple bloom in my 3x4x6 under a HLG Rspec 320 and dry in my 3x3x6. In the mean time i got some summer projects to finish. My 3x4 is filled with 2 massive bluedreams i let veg all summer about 10days into their bloom cycles. My 3x3 has a 73 and a 35 day old. I also sowed a fog dog og auto same time as the slhxlvtk. Both sprouted this weekend. My 2x4 is empty but still needs to be cleaned out from last cycle and will be used to dry the oldest. After the auto is dry bbw and hxk will start their bloom cycle in the 2x4 under a mars hydro tsl2000(300w). With 9 differnt genetics in 9 different phases of life the risk of human error is to high for me to salt feed so this will be simple soil feed only run. The rest will sprout in 1gal bags of happy frog and transplaned into 5s 2/3 full of ocean forest top fed once at the end of the streach and as needed for one looking like a long bloom cycle.

The LVTK is most likely Las Vegas Triangle Kush which is a skunk/tk cross. There's also a Long Valley Royal Kush that gets mixed up as LVTK occasionally as well. Both are killer plants. I'm going to grab a clone of the Las Vegas Triangle Kush from Cannaventure Seeds this fall once temps are better for shipping. Sounds like a great plan you have for this year, hope you have some great varieties to sample.

Fog dog sprout
big bad wolf opening up

Managed to get the 2x4 emptied vacumed and bleached. Give it a few days to dry out and hopefuly I'll cut down the first of my autos sunday or monday and the bbw will go into bloom as soon as she is dry. Im pretty sure i gave these 2 youngins some light burn considering the conditions, but the roots were massive, exp the slh X lvtk. Next i planted 2 Kristy's dream( bluedream x kristys kush) donated by @Tracker niether of them sprouted during the first dry back, 3 days after second watering i still had to scratch back the soil to see that they had sprouted. 1 i dont think will make it no biggie thats why i plant 2 in the first place

Happy growing with your ladies!

First auto came down last night and as i expected one of the kristy kush did not make it, sprouted but fail to produce a tap. With 2 openings in my numbers the next strain i want to sprout is girl scout cookies. Only one bean in my GSC gusse ill drop a bubblehead bean with it. The older girls look much happier now that i dropped them away from the bloom light, the haze kush cross absolutly exploded post transplant. BBW looks like she will be needing some calmag treatment

The haze kush cross has blown up. Thick stalk massive fan leafs long flower nods.BBW is petiet but im loving the tight spacing of the branchesbubble head sprouted last night had to remove the seed case. Happened on most seeds this run not normaly that common for me. Had to scrach back the soil to see that the GSC had sprouted, tap root was inverted and had to be repositioned, no stalk had started yet hopefully she comes up in the next few days. Kristys dreams has opened up a bot and will be ready to uppot as soon as i have the other tent reaady

I need my 3rd tent open asap. Stems still bend not brake much less snap. Thinking 5ish more days. The slhXlvtk needs to be flipped before her strech takes up the whole tent. The BBW i think is about perfect size to flip for the number of plants i want to run under my space constraints. Kristi's dream desperatly needs to be up potted has roots coming out the bottom of starter container. Bubble head had a bad strech needed her stalk wound down and buried. Girl scout cookies is a slow kid. She sprouted seedcase on sideways, uprooted herself, she stil refuses to open her leafs 4 days after the seed case was removed. Im hoping if i giver her time and space she catch on and start progessing normally but she might just be to dumb to preform all nessicary life functions.

GSC had a celulose thin membrian left from the seed casing holding the caledons closed, KK got uppotted and can keep the little ones on top of her pot for a few days til transplant shock wears off. Might have to run the dehu to speed up drying or might have to put the 3 youngest out in the open to veg, really hopping to flip the first 2 sometime this week

Got the veg light up in the 2x4. Kristi is showing her appreciation for the bigger pot and the bubble head is ready for one too. The GSC is still acting like she is to retarted to preform basic life functions, she has until the next auto comes down(2ish weeks) to straighten up and fly right or she gets pulled for the next been drop.

Giggity giggity here we go. The BBW & SLV x LVTK got their first 12hr dark cycle 3am-3pm. And will get up potted tonight or tomorrow
After running a few simple soil only runs, I have decided the extened flower time, lower yield and level of early die off i have gotten are not worth the simplicity and i will hydro feed.

So after the first auto dried i found mold only in the top cola while trimming, this was last thursday. I put the rest of the buds back on the net and flash dried them with the dehu for a few hours then ripped them appart and found no farther growth. That was last thursday, saturday i found mold in a few colas of the second plant(she only need another 10-15days) i cut off the molded buds and cut her down, flash dried to 35%rh in a separate room and jared untrimmed. Fall girls got pulled out and washed with a mild dawn solution and tent+equipment got wiped with disinfectent. I fail to accout for the reduced moisture and all the girls took some damage, the big bad wolf and bubble head got wilted at points over the weekend but bounced back fine once they got to drink. Not to concerned about the bubble head she can take time to recover in veg, but such a stress even so early in flower has me worried about the BBW growing balls, ive been warned that she is not the most stable of breeds.
Tuesday the bubblehead and BBW both got uppotted and simi lolied. Great root ball on the bubble out the cup. Got interuped before i could get the SLH X LVTK uppotted will probably get it done tonight.
Loosing faith in the GSC, i gove her fresh soil tuesday and she had 3 long main roots (4in?) But no secondaries. I'm giving her one more week then pulling her and planting the next strain, black diesle by 1212seedco
BD will be sown in the bloom tent as per breeder recomendations.

Lookin good brother! I just popped the remaining 3 big bad wolf seeds I had. Only 1 made it.

Develemently challenged GSC
Bubble headi found her absolutly wilted mondaymornin

SLV X LVTK,

Big Bad Wolf
Fog dog auto

GSC is finally looking like she might get her act together
Kristi is tall, she probably needs to go in the bloom tent, but i dont like her wide spacing, im tempted to take a big top off her so she bushes out and i can wait for the 4x3 to be clear(2ishweeks)
Bubble head looks like she on track to bloom when the big tent clears (also should probably top)
Fogdog is show flowers
BBW and haze x kush haven't budded yet, had to raise the the light tonight but the strech feels manageable, i could fit kristi in the 3x3 with them but it would be tight if she had to finish her strech in there.
I drop a sinmint cookie tonight

Big strech while i was out of town for the weekend, top of the hazeXkush got burnt. Both her and the wolf got their buds popping now

Im gonna have to brake some necks of these girls dont stop with the reaching.

Fog dog is getting plump

Final made the choice to take a big top of kristi, hollow stems already while still in veg is a good sign of a healthy plant. Same with the bubble head

Got the big tent emptied and cleaned yesterday, the big girls got spreyed sinced the last girls in there had mites then moved in under the money light, kristi dream will join them tomorrow. All the bullshit from my office got moved back out and the whole lung room got vac and wiped. Set lights 2pm-2am, today was the last day of my busy season at work so i can do my work beforw the wife and kids come home so im not ignoring my wife and staying up late to to love on them

Young Forest Gump Voice: "Momma, why's Kristi start out so thin, but midway she gets extra beig?"




lol , I've never seen leaves like that growmie! Also those images above - the leaves have awful down claw, but has that fan in the 2nd pic been blowing on them for a while? I have a little foot tall oscillating tower heater/fan. It has a 120mm(like 3.5"x3.5") computer case fan lol, but even that blowing 12-16" away from leaves, left me with some clawing. Just something to consider. I'm a new grower BTW so lots of reading and little experience talking lol

My basement offices flooded durining a freak storm a while ago, and i had mold in another grow so i had been blasting a dehuie and failed to adjust my watering habits leaving everyone wilted a time or 2, also been battling mites. Found a few on her tonight but the effected leaves got removed and she got spreyed. The blue dream stock that shared a mother with kristi was very finicky and slow growing in veg then put on so many flower nodes during her strech. She has the best color in her leafs of all the plants i got right now, so i doubt the clawing is N toxicity. I'll live with a little wind stress as fan training real helps strenghten up stalks, but i should have been rotating her and the bubblehead post to the fan more regularly
