Hey guys, new to this forum and i REALLY love the overall content, and generally overall positive vibe this place has! Thanks for having me.

I wanted to start a journal since, well, quite frankly I'm starting all over from scratch (sorta).

This was Nov 10, a few days after returning from vacation. Honestly I don't evwn remember WTF is in this pic, lol! I had a rough start, damping off seedlings & killed a few cuttings.

Ultimately though, i got my sh-t together and ended up with 6 really nice female plants.

These are two phenos of Humboldt Seed Co's Collie Man Kush. I cant wait to see what that weird one does in flower. Hoping it leans Asphalt Plant.

Here we have FAB MC, short for "Fuji Apple Blueberry Muffin Cookie" ??. (Fuji Apple Cookie x Blueberry Muffin) chucked by my buddy PwnytailJoe. VERY excited to see what this one does!

This is a ILGM Durban Poison. I dispute the realness of the Durban genes but whatever, still hoping for some piney earthy dank.

Most recently, my dad gave me a couple fems. OG Kush from i49 Seeds, and Grape Stomper from Native Sun Genetics.

Oh hell yeah. You got it going on. I'm hooked up and will enjoy the ride?

Trying my hand at "open-faced" cloning (as in, not using any kind of dome). Since these plants are so small, I'm able to have the exhaust off in this tent & it gets nice and humid in there, probably in the 70-80s. Also low to mid 80° temp, so we'll see how it goes. Hoping the Grape Stomper grows out of its variegation, can they do that? Grow out of that?

Some day I'll tell you about my contempt of domes in general but specifically small, single cuts. mmm hmmm
Looking good! ??

The weird Collie Man Kush has like oddly rubbery branches compared to the other plants. Not gonna keep a cut (there's not much to keep, i threw it into flower so early) but if it turns out to be extraordinary in flower, I might try to reveg it after harvest. I need to quit keeping low-yield phenos, since I only flower 2 to 4 plants at a time.

Keeping a "fridge cut", a method I learned from Budderton @ Overgrow. Put a clean, dry cut into a baggie, and this will stay in the fridge for about 8+ weeks, at which point I'll cut a fresh edge off the stem, and refresh it in a cup of water, then stab it into a cup of coco or a root plug. This seems to be a GREAT way to hold cuts for extended periods, especially for people like me with plant count limits.

You know I have to say that I've only done clones on my own once (This year) and I didn't use a dome for any of it. I grabbed red Solo cups, some dirt, and root riot moss plugs, and after everything was labeled and in their cup, I stuck them in a tent with no fan or light for 2 or 3 days, then, I grabbed them, and stuck them in that small tent I used for my seeds to start and turned the light down lower, and watered them again. A week to two weeks depending on strain and they were good and went straight outside, or to friends of course.

That Blueberry Muffin cross has some major potential; I've got Blueberry Muffin X Blue Cheese and it was wonderful :)

Jesus H Christ, these damn things took 20 DAYS of 11/13 lighting to start flowering!! I blame the low lights-on temp, it was peaking at like 71°f, but with the added small light it's now peaking at 77°f and leveling off at 74°. Plants are showing positive response to it. VPD is in the zone now.

Dropped a BOB BITCHEN Chernobyl, this will replace my stunted variegated Grape Stomper that I'm almost sure is gona be a dud in flower, & I don't wana waste time on it.

The 2x2 veg tent is POPPIN, the i49 OG Kush (top right) and Collie Man Kush (the weird looking one) are gona be fucking BEASTS when it's their turn for flower (March 2023). The seedling is the @BobBitchen Chernobyl.

FAB MC tester looking FABulous, also seems like it's gonna lean Blueberry Muffin in its flowering time & might be an early finisher, we'll see. I only say that because the flowers seem to be progressing quicker than the other plants.
