Well I'm home and everything looks great! The ones I tossed into flower weren't as big as I expected but looked great and will be cloned tomorrow or Monday I think. I still gotta do some work tonight but I was very pleased when I opened the room.

Always good to see everything survived :) I'm leaving town for almost a week on Wednesday, I'm starting to saturate in the leadup.

Here's the flower chamber. This past weekend was the night of long knives. I've now got enough information on the various phenos to do a serious cull in my plants. For starters, all the LSD are now gone except for the one in the lower left corner, which will be harvested next weekend. I've also eliminated one of the Pineapple Express phenos, and two of the Blackberry phenos. Both the Fire OG and Headband 707 are going to be done as well once I've harvested the ones in flower -- it's simply too sativa-esque for my grow style. My caregiver is going to keep it going, so I will at least be able to trade some finished product with him if I get a hankering for it.

Bay watcher that looks awesome man glad your pheno selection is finally comeing to an end. It sure can take awhile to fill a room and work through phenos.

I still need to try the 6 inch square fabric pots. The ones I got to try we're really too big. They were easy to clean though, just toss em in a washer. I would like to see if the right sized ones would perform better/different than my plastic pots.

Yeah, I became pretty ruthless in the past few weeks about what I am allowing to live. When I get back from vacation, I'm going to introduce a couple of new strains 1-2 seeds at a time instead of pheno hunting an entire pack at once.

I'm sold on the geopots. I've got to take a big plastic bag full of dirty two-gallon ones to a laundromat so they don't destroy my washer :)

Well guys I've been really busy and been running around like crazy! Plants in flower are looking nice. I found a few males but that was to be expected. I'm gonna keep a power nap male which was actually the strongest grower right from the beginning. I've also got an extrema male I am gonna keep and collect pollen off both of them. I took clones off all the sins OG tonight, the CJ, a couple SDG, the female power nap, and a few of the platinum delights. Gonna have all kinds of new flavored soon! In the next week or two I'm also gonna be popping beans again! Few more days and ill have Internet so ill be able to give you it's a nice update! Catch ya tomorrow........

peace. TC

Ya I've been slacking a bit on posting on my thread. I got internet finally, and have been catching up on your threads :), but just been busy.

Things are good, and moving at about normal speed now. Just havn't had a chance to do a photo update yet, and havn't done anything special. My parents came into town a couple days ago, and we had spent the several days leading up to that really trying to get the house finished up as much as possible. We went and bought a dinning room table and finished all the important unpacking. The only stuff left in boxes is random stuff we don't really need for life, but don't have any place to put until we get some shelves, and storage. We lost a bedroom in this house and some closet space but its all worth it from how much happier we are here :). My parents are getting ready to stop by and say good bye on their way back out of town. Then we have to drive back to our old town for a few things. Sooo I'm hoping either tonight or tomorrow once all this is finally over I'll have a goo chance to find the camera and get you guys some thing to see!!

I'm really excited about these Sin's OGs I've got in flower. Both of them are keeping really nice tight nodes, and starting to flower well now. I'm guessing they are leaning towards some of their Indica heritage the leaves a fatter then any of my other plants, and are a very deep glossy green. It honestly looks like I sprayed them with something they are so shiny. The powernap is also looking great, along with the Sweet Deep Grapefruit, both are forming nice flowers. The extrema that is in flower I think may be leaning towards the chemdog side(which I'm all for), it definitely stretched more then all the other new plants. I'm sure it will be some dank smoke though :), its got those dark glossy leaves like the OGs too. I'll be putting another round of clones into the tray in another few days to a week, and the next round of seeds will be going in now that I'm done with the visitors and trips and all that.

So I'll catch you guys later on. They should be here soon and its time for breakfast :)!

Not just yet, I was mostly waiting to get through this visit with the parents, and now that they just left....

The original 3 sinmints I popped did not germ. Sadly everyone on this forum that has tried the Sinmints so far has had the same results. I got my new seed order the day before I moved, and now have 15 reg Sinmints (the others were fems) beans to play with and try to change that!! I'm prolly gonna put in 5 to start, along with a hand full of other strains :). I'm counting on one of the Sin's OGs as a keeper, and hoping one of the platinum delights will be too. I've got the CJ, and the Cindy I am keeping for sure, and I am pretty confident I'm keeping this SDG unless the smoke is crap or it starts giving me issues out of left field (its grown 100% perfectly so far). With all those hanging around, I really only expect to keep one or 2 more strains around, but I figured I'll grow 3-4 and maybe 2 will be worth it. I'm hoping/expecting those 2 to be the Sinmint Cookies, and the Electric Lemon G, but who knows.............

Well I'm hitting the road, I'll catch you tonight.

Peace TC
