Good evening pHenohunters...

I've been waiting for an opportune moment to start a grow journal here. When I joined I felt like most things were ending. But when one story ends, another begins ...

This journal is open for comments and critiques by the way. I've been growing for a long time but I'm inconsistent to say the least. Always trying new things. Always a lot going on. Sometimes my grows suffer for it. But things always work out well enough.

So the real impetus to begin this journal is I'm finally launching into an adventure that I've been planning for a long time ... breeding.

Tonight I dropped the following seeds that I've accumulated over the last year or so:

4 each:
AKBB Romulan BX4
3Thirteen Sin City Juice
Bohdi Aluna (Colombian Red x 88G13HP)

3 each:
AKBB Dope Beard Durban
Coastal Swazi x Burmese
Bad Dawg Motor City Fighters

1 each:
Useful Blackened Oranges
Eso's Big N Tasty
Eso's Dyno Berry Bites

The hope is to find a good Romulan male for some breeding. The plan would then be to make a bunch of crosses with my favorites from this other stuff. I don't have room to finish all of it but finding homes for free plants has never been a problem. I'm probably overdoing it, but that's kind of my way.

Oh, and I plant to fem the Romulan too. It took so long to find a well recommended one that if it's as good as I hope, I intend to keep it around a while, in various forms. Plus I have a whole list of people asking for seeds now haha.

Is that all, you say?

Of course not.

Here's my Useful Orange Cookies x Chocolate Diesel on the left, 3thirteen Monkey Juice on the right.

The little guys ...er gals .... are a Katsu Key Lime Pie and a Useful Chem D x Chocolate Diesel. The bigger gals are a Mephisto 4 Assed Monkey (center) and a WickedPissah Black Cherry Pebbles (far right). Last autos I'll be running for a while I think. I like them for outdoors but otherwise I prefer my photos.

And speaking of outdoors, I currently have a Ketama from World of Seeds and a Mephisto Forum Stomper x Forgotten Cookies outdoors. I'll grab some up to date pictures tomorrow when they are joined by a Mephisto Northern Cheese Haze.

Nice spot you got here @Gentlemancorpse
I've seen some fire grows from those Useful Choc Diesel crosses.

Thanks for stopping in Red!

I got to smoke some of the Orange Cookies a while back. Combined with all the other Useful grows I've seen on some other forum, I was sold. I'm really excited to see what I find in there.

While your visiting, any tips on what I should keep an eye out for with the SCJ?

Mephisto Forum Stomper x Forgotten Cookies (letting her go wild, no training at all. Kind fun to just see a 3' tall single stem plant, not something I have room for indoors)

Mephisto Northern Cheese Haze. I saw a dude on Reddit growing monsters in one of these milk crates lined with a burlap sack and was like ... I have all that shit! Trying it...

I havent seen too much variance plant structure wise between the phenos of SCJ. They are all seemingly very "OG" structured and tall. Out of 10 girls I grew, they were all almost exacting in appearance but 2 had a tropical/orange mango smell that stood out to me and those are the 2 that I wound up breeding with. Potent stone with both as well even when seeded.
Hope you find what you are looking for in the other strains. You cant go wrong with a good Durban!

Awesome! Thanks for the tips. I'll be sure to share my results too as they grow.

Like the seed selection you got going on
Just picked up some AK BeanBrains myself Durban F4 and some PHK/NL1 hope to get the Romulan/Grape pie freebie. Only heard good things about AK so color me interested.


Good choices! That would be a great freebie too. His freebies are always awesome, I'm dying to get some in rotation but I didn't have the space this cycle. I've got his ISS/NL1 x MTF and Qrazy Train x TKNL5 Haze.

So we meet again...:notsurefry:

Not sure if y'all can see it in this pic but I found mold in the main cola of the Florida OG, the same plant that dropped the bean.

As soon as I went to check on it today I knew what I would find. The bud had that airy falling of the stem feeling. Doesn't look like botrytis to me, it's more like the mold you see on bread, but I played it safe and tossed the whole plant. Sucks, but I have almost a pound drying or jarred right now so I don't really need it.

I'm mostly just annoyed because my humidity was only 40-55% throughout flowering. Also the weed smells like spicy molasses and I was looking forward to smoking it.

Oh well. Here's hoping it didn't get any of the others. I checked them and they look good so far.

I had to constantly stab the soil, to prevent run off. 7 gallon ? I would sleeve the top 1/2 if and when I hit that again.
I am running a similar version right now , half the size.

You sir are a pioneer. A leader of men. A shining beacon of hope in the darkness ....

That's a picture to put a smile on my face too. I'm a New England man, born and raised, only thing I love more than fall foliage is gorgeous cannabis plants
