Sour blueberry breath #1 came down Monday, a little early but after spotting more mold it was time.. Thanks to @Willie I was able to salvage most of the plant after an couple applications of gff. Straight smells like sprite remix tastes lol

Thug roze came down Monday, she smells like puréed mangos or some other tropical fruit right on the verge of rotting. Or like someone threw up a mango smoothie lol


These next two are ak47xbigbud autos that are very different lol. Planted sept 10, Neither are ready however I’m only looking forward to one of them ? they have a nice earthy and sour funk

These should all be coming down in the next week or two

This squished cookies, was planted later, oct 10 straight from seed into flower. It’s got some really cool growth, it seems to keep self topping… may have to try revegging this thing

Been super busy with the new baby and work.. but life is good.

Just wanted to check in real quick and shout out @BH for helping me with my IPM..

My second son was born January 28 and it’s been pretty hectic getting used to two babies under two but I would t change anything for the world. Very grateful..

Anyhow, I germinated some seeds after having a failed attempt at @HydroRed’s testers.

I put 2 apple bottoms from 3thirteen, 2 greases pieces from 3thirteen, 1 Royal highness, 1 blueberry muffin, 1 family jewels, and 2 purple panty droppers all from Humboldt seed co. Into paper towels and after planting them I had massive amounts of gnats and thrips on my new seedlings.. I lost the 2 purple panty droppers but again, thanks to @BH. I’ve implemented botaniguard, venerate, grandevo, suffoilx and lost coast IPM and they are finally coming back to health.

I also germinated 11 love f2’s from Lit farms. All of them were successful but i accidentally dropped the dome on one and killed it… and 1 was a late bloomer but she’s up and hopefully cruising right along with @Idlewilder for the 2023 Valentine’s Day lit farms fiasco championship belt.

Thank you, I appreciate it!

The sour blueberry breath has surprised me through the cure. It’s fuckin delicious, straight sprite remix smell and blueberry sour taste. I got them from freeseedday, but just got another pack recently and I’m looking forward to running a full pack.

Went on vacation and came back to a dark tent… all plants are in flower mode before I was able to transplant. I’ll do that this weekend and put them on 12/12.

May just say fuck it and keep one of the Lit farms Love f2 males in here and make my first set of seeds.

Not quite sure how this is gonna end up but due to my being on vacation and either my timer or brother keeping the lights off for 2 days it’s the only option I have besides waiting who knows how long for reveg.

Oh well at least I got 5 clones of everything EXCEPT the love f2’s I was planning on grabbing clones of them in a week or two .. I’ll reveg the best fem after harvest.
So far looks like 3 males for sure..

Congrats on the safe arrival of your son. It's truly a blessing in life to hold a precious little baby you created. From my clan down here in Oz to your across the pond congratulations
Thank you! The older I get the more I realize that raising a family and teaching/learning is what life is all about.

Been a while since I’ve posted but it’s been a boring veg cycle until about a week ago, I flipped to 13/11 after 24 hours dark on Tuesday morning. E115F42F-2F20-4A76-BEC2-FDAFD2FC968B.jpeg
4 females of love f2 from lit farm in one half of the bed. Getting lemon lime and rubber on the stem rub.

I saved the best smelling male and attempted to collect some pollen, who knows if it’s any good lol I shook the plant onto some parchment paper n let it dry for two days.. took a clone n used that “tap water tech” ? image.jpg

The other half of the bed is a couple inches under the trellis but it’ll work out I’m sure.
This side I have
apple bottom 1 and 2
Greases pieces 1 (i pulled #2 for bein stunted, I took too small of a clone I think)
from 3thirteen @HydroRed

2 Royal highness
2 blueberry muffin
2 family jewels all from Humboldt seed co.

This is apple bottom #1. Both cuts are showing deficiency. I top dressed today
