A couple of projects i worked on the last couple years
Purple project: i hv a nostalgia for purple weed and remember growing up in the south people would be amazed when you had purple buds back then. And for me some purple/myrcene dom plants have helped wt muscle spasm/nerve pain.
I ran 2 mixes of males throughout a year. I keep picking at males to test and to delay pollen dropping.
1st mix ended up with 2 hawaiian king (cannaexotic), 1 blacklight fantasy (bodhi) 1 cactus flower (vashon)
2nd mix was 2 purple unicorn (bodhi), 1 hawaiian king, 1 purple dosi
I Made abunch of crosses that year, going through these the most nowadays
Purple congolese: i ran some congolese from real seed co. It was a crazy experience. I had one plant that went a year or so. It grew tall and had a ton of tiny branches with pencil eraser size flowers on the tips. It smelled like pencil eraser shavings kinda too?
It had red stems and would drop seeds in a weird way. The seeds would form in pairs inches down,away from the flowers. They were the easiest seeds to get to and just kept coming while the little buds up top never finished. A seed making machine of a plant.
I believe it could have caught both of those pollen mixes? It really went that long with almost reveg like growth. I still wonder if possible.
I just finished some of these seed's first try. i flowered outside when they were real small still. So far The plants finished quicker, had bigger buds than before by a good margain and have a cherry and leather terp profile. Its not super "loud" but the smell lingers on you for awhile. Really cool bc all of it was an experiment, now i really want to hunt through it.
Female seed project: a few years back i reversed some clones from plants i had around. I made fem seeds for friends that were new growers. Then they all stopped growing ? they all live in unfriendly states..
The female pollen donors were cookie crunch (dosi x stardawg gps) and twinkle tarts (esos). I forget all the moms but i do remember timing got all funky. I didn't get to all original target plants. I still managed to get many crosses made and found some fun stuff to revisit in those. I meant for twinkle tarts to only hit auto fems but i think it bled over to the photo fems too bc i find a common trait of a taffy like;, almost muted bubblegum terp in many of the crosses. Otherwise i cant explain where or how it got there.
If you are reading all this thanks for joining
I hope it makes some sense. i like to talk story but it hurts to try and type it out correctly. ?
I got other stuff going on. These were in my head. Hopefully document some stuff drop some pics soon
Dug up a pic of the congolese. I think its just getting started here!
