Hauser's Hangout

[Amarok]

Not much of a journal-er, but I wanted a place to share what's in my garden.
After having a perpetual grow for years, I'm currently slowed right down. The flowering tents are just about clear.
This SSxC99 is just about to finish up and I'll be shutting this 3x3 off until September. This is day 64 since the time change.

And a closeup.

I've got some sprouts going as well, a JOTI OG Kush and a few of my crosses. I'll take some photos in the veg tent when they're a bit further along.

Have a great weekend and be safe, phellow hunters.

Looks mighty good! Reminds me of the old Jack Herer I ran from willyjack, back more than a few yrs ago.
You shutting down because of the heat?
That is always a struggle for me in summer.
Have a great weekend yourself, be safe and enjoy.

Thank you. She has a really tropical, fruity smell and the tester was powerful.

Heat and freedom. Stash is full, and after juggling 4-8 tents and cabs I'm ready to get back to enjoying growing rather than feeling like it's a chore. It's already working.

She's been chopped and is hanging. Looks like a nice sized harvest.

She looks great! Judging by overall, you think she leans more toward the Cindy?

 

[Amarok]

Thanks, @HydroRed .

Both the smell and the little foxtail-looking buds coming out of the main flowers are very reminiscent of the Cindy parent. The structure represents both. That said, I am far more familiar with the C99 side than the Sweet Skunk side, so I could well be missing signs of those genes.

This is the final plant I have in flower right now, Kush x Northern Lights, after 49 days. It was flipped very early and in a small pot so there won't be a lot to harvest, but what there is looks and smells pretty nice.

 

[Amarok]

Here's the kids in the veg tent right now. Pretty happy that most of these are my own seeds.
Front center and rear center are C99xBlueberry, middle five are White Widow x Northern Lights. The little runty thing on the far left is a (SSxBB)xBB backcross that I thought died numerous times. Should probably cull it but I have room so it lives...for now (cue ominous music in background).

The last two are the only seeds that weren't made in my garden. Second from left is the final Seedsman White Widow fem from a five year old pack, and on the far right is a JOTI OG Kush that is not at all happy about being recently topped.

 

[Amarok]

KNL again, just after lights off. It's uncommon for me to take flash photos in the dark and I like how they turned out, so they get immortalized .

 

[Amarok]

Here's the veg tent 5 days later. The Romulan popped and then fizzled out but everything else is progressing.

Here's the C99xBB. The roots just hit the reservoir and growth is accelerating.

White widow on left, C99xBB on right.

Here's the 5 WWxNL. The one on the far left, which is the runt, got tossed in a mini-dwc because I was bored. The stunted (SSxBB)xBB is starting to grow but is still tiny. You can see the Romulan seed that pushed out of the coco before dying. Giving it another day or so in case it's only mostly dead (a suggestion from my friend Miracle Max ).

 

[Amarok]

One last one of the whole bunch, mainly because I missed the OG Kush in the previous post. It's the center-most plant in this pic.
(Thanks for the rep, Jaguarlax)

 

[Amarok]

One last photo of the KNL, just after chop, 58F. I love the subtle differences over the last week to ten days.
It feels weird, but for the first time in years I don't have a single plant in flower.

 

[Amarok]

I've been experimenting with mixing Maxibloom powder and Megacrop(v2) in veg this run and am seeing fantastic growth. Other than a couple genetic runts, most of what's in the tent looks older than the calendar tells me they are. I'm only going to post veg pics weekly (or even less frequntly, depending on my level of lazy) , so there's a few days to go, but the next photos should show pretty big advances from the last ones.
My WWxNL crosses especially are making me very happy with their progress.

 

[Amarok]

Here's a pic of some of the weird leaf growth of one of my C99 x BB crosses. BB is such a genetic mess.

 

[Amarok]

Are you guys seeing a big, stretched out image? I am, and there have been a few pics I've posted in this thread that look this way.

When I first put it up, post #4 looked all stretched out, but it looks ok now, however both #12 and #14 look distorted to me.

I have numerous addons and blockers installed, so it could well be on my end, which is why I'm curious if others have the same issue.

Your garden looks great . Nice healthy looking plants . I am sure @spyralout could answer your question on the photo's.

Thank you. I'll update the veg tent tomorrow, as things are starting to take off a little bit. I'm already running out of floor space in the 2x4. Hoping for mostly girls as I've got a good pollen collection right now.

I'm just asking if the photos in the listed posts look normal to you, or if they look strange, nothing technical.
It's a new-to-me forum, I'm using a new hosting service, and my browser is customized, so I'm just trying to figure out where to start looking for the source of the (minor) issue.

Well they look great to me but i am not the best to ask about it. I know Spy has changed the resolution playing around with it a couple of times. I have always been surprised at how fast they download.

I noticed #12 and #14 look like they are stretched width wise or shortened in height while cropping/resizing.
I have not experienced this myself in posting pics here.
Your young plants look fantastic, so squat and dense. Was the WW topped? Actually several look topped and appear to be loving it.
What type and how much light are you using for veg? Whatever it is, those plants dig it. Good stuff


Did the Romulan make it? I havent seen anyone else post pure Romulan. I hope it takes off for you.
"It's only mostly dead" lmao I might have to borrow that line

Ok, so it isn't just me. That's weird. I'm hosting on pixelfed, an open source deal, so I'm willing to accept the odd quirk. Hopefully it straightens itself out.

Thank you very much. I'm planning on taking some progress pics tomorrow so I'll add more detail at that time. I've been topping , transplanting, defoliating, training...all the fucking around that makes the vegetation stage so fun.

They are under a DIY 4 socket by 4 socket fixture that holds screw-in LED "bulbs". It's designed to fill half a 2x4 or fully fill a 2x2 tent. Currently each socket has a ~10watt 5000k LED, so about 160 watts.

I started with Amazon lights, mostly Roleadro, but they all gather dust now. I use an HLG-65, but all my other lights are DIY using screw-in LEDs.

Naw, it's toast. I'll keep trying with the rest of the pack.

Feel free to borrow the line, I did. It's from one of the best novels and movies ever, The Princess Bride.
