@jaguarlax - The father for CG, "Hyper Alien", is Grape Alien Haze x Hyper Glue. Grape Alien Haze is Grape Ape x White Alien Haze and Hyper Glue is GG4 x (Afternoon Delight x C99) As you know, F1 has a wide array of expressions across the spectrum. So depending upon which pheno representation you pulled out of the pool, you could have an average - longer finisher. I would expect most to take 65+ days, but there certainly are shorter finishers in the gene pool as well. Also, nice work. They're looking great!
I took the 3 I had around 67 days so lines right up. Agreed looking great @jaguarlax!

How far along is she? And no, I couldn’t call it for you. It just depends on what you prefer for finish and which way your particular pheno has a heavier influence. If I recall, I took mine to 70 days and it probably could have went longer. The Mom is Ghost Train Haze, and the Dad has some GG4 but also another Haze in it as well. I’ll provide some more info in the morning when I have some time. I just popped in for a second while my meat is cooking in the smoker.
Thats all I was really looking for thank you... Were right around day 57, so I think imma give the one with the most pistils another 10-14 days, and Ill take the other a bit earlier out of sheer impatience masked as a preference for racier cannabis... lol :alien::partyparrot::yoshieating:

Thank you for the detail... This just makes me even more excited to try her medicine...

I dropped these because of the Ghost Train Haze lineage, I was totally unaware there was haze influence from the father as well...

You guys know I love my haze... Im now thinking this could be a great candidate to bring that ON Haze ive been working on into the respectable yield department... :1up:

Some quick updates:

Flower room: Is at day 57. Almost everyone should be ready in another week.

1. BCK is again proving to be just as dominant as she always has. Most phenotypes crossed with BCK appear to have a heavy BCK influence. However, Pandemic was able to break this barrier regarding aroma as I hoped it would.
2. BCK and Pandemic crosses are visually the heaviest yielders.
3. BCK x Pandemic appears to be visually the biggest yielders consistently across the board.
4. Surprisingly, BCK x Pandemic also look to be the longest finishers. Almost all of them look like they'll be heading past 70 days. At day 57, one phenotype in particular still has 98% white pistils. (head scratching this) The only thing I can gather from these findings are that the particular Pandemic male chosen ended up being a heavy sativa leaning phenotype whereas I consider Pandemic to be Indica dom.
5. The GOW male used appears to be producing some fine offspring with the different cultivars.
6. I've got a few of the Terp flower structured phenotypes I was hoping for. Hard, dense, window breaker nugs, but longer internodal spacing. I expect the density to make up weight from lack of stacking just as the mom did. Eventually, I'm hoping to shorten the internodal spacing and improve the yields even more.
7. Moon Dragon has afforded some nice specimens to decide upon. One in particular is my favorite but not ideal for most. She's extremely short, single cola, with minimal vigor. She's an extremely slow grower but she is gorgeous. I just love the orange hue of her pistils. While they're darkening a bit, they almost appeared neon orange throughout most of flower.
8. Frost - Heavier trichome coverage can be found in at least one phenotype across the cultivars. But some may take more hunting if that was the only thing someone was looking for. BCK x Pandemic I would say is consistently the "least frosty" when compared to the rest.
9. Terp and GOW crosses appear to produce the higher percentage of potential "keepers" from this small sample sized test run.
10. HD x GOW is very unique from just about every angle. This one is going to take a lot more time and effort, but it's looking to be very promising a worth further evaluation when time permits.

BCK x Pandemic - Very large yielder and longer flowering. Terps seem solid as I hoped they would, but it would still be ranked last in the group if I'd revisit it or decide to work it further. (mainly due to space and planned projects.)
BCK x GOW - Some damn fine specimens, but I needed to thin the herd for space. These side projects can only move forward when space and time allow. So these had to be look only and I didn't find a worthy male. (Definitely worth further work, but space and time won't allow it for now.)
Terp x Pan - Same as BCK x GOW

I found exceptional males from these three, so they'll be kept for further work when space and time allow.
Terp x GOW
Moon Dragon
HD x GOW

The males are still in veg waiting for the utility tent to open up so pollen can be collected. Then the ladies will proceed to F2. Currently they've been reset. While the clones are rooting, they've been placed into the other half of the flower room under an HPS. A branch of the Moon Dragon will be BX'd back to Moontang Mystery since I still have pollen in the freezer while they wait to be F2'd on the next run.

Veg Tent:
Clearing out the cloned females listed above afforded the space needed for the current parental hunt. They're still about 3-4 weeks out from being able to move into flower. I'm still waiting for them to get big enough to clone. Once cloned, up-potted, and recovered, they'll be moving into flower for the next phase.

Your missing pack is "Orange", Phylex.
Narrowed it down.

Last go with Paladin was shamefull. The light leak provided ample illumination for the mites to feast 24/7 :poop:
Took care of that. Ready for action.

I got faith in those last two. I have never heard songs of praise for the Paladin. It is tricky to rock a round. I will take her her home and bust her out , and I wont be leaving early.

Breathe with me!

Do you know which Terpenado Mystery cross it is?

It certainly isn’t going to win the prettiest run award, but this run definitely has some silver linings. First and foremost it was getting things dialed back in after a short hiatus. Second, I was able to test out some personal side projects. And third, I was forced to change up my nutrients. So I was afforded this grow to dial in this new 2 part Mega Crop I was unfamiliar with. Thankfully, I believe it’s all dialed in and ready for the parental run coming up next,

After the early veg snafu, and two separate issues after taking two vacations, we’re still closing in on the finish line.

Here’s the BCK x Pan mentioned previously. This is day 57 and mostly all white pistils.

This is my favorite Terp x Gow pheno. The one with long internodal spacing, but window breaking nugs.
49626B29-306A-40BE-86A5-D118713F63AF.jpeg

This is one of the HD x GOW’s. (Purple Pheno.) I’m keeping her for color as the male I chose is a purple pheno as well. But she’s actually not my favorite of the two. I have one that I’m pretty excited to share if I can get her to do what I want her to.
F1AEAB30-20EC-4BAE-8A8A-641DE40BEFBE.jpeg

This is a BCK x GOW. It was hard to let her go, but I didn’t have the space and I didn’t find a good enough male to keep. I may revisit this cross in the future if time permits and hunt through it again. I’m just not sure what the future holds. So for now, her remaining seeds will remain in cold storage.

I learned something today.

Also learned I am not 20 years old anymore. Into my third hour of shoveling snow,,, all my shoulders can think about is that last chunk of @OldG hash, waiting for me, in the shack.

"Green Label is Terpnado Mystery x Pandemic

I suspect you're going to find someone in here you really like. I found these very intriguing and I'm waiting to test their effect.

Orange Label is Bck Phylex Cut xPandemic

I'm really curious to see how long these go and what effects come through after such a long flowering period. You're going to have some options with these. If you're tight on space, let them be. They'll most likely grow single cola and take up little room. However, they should be stacked from top to bottom making one, forearm size cola. They will produce weight. If you want some branching, top them. They responded exceptionally well to topping. I'm also expecting some really heavy, sweet and fruity terps once cured.

Pink is your Charastar....

Jewels, the Charastar pioneer. I haven't seen these yet, but I have some really high hopes for them. That Nepali Mazar is very intriguing.

Is that coco and perlite you're using with the 2-part Mega Crop?

No, no coco. I'm a straight soil guy. I tried F&D totes for one run, but soil is more my thing. It's just some standard FFOF.

Interesting. What strength's of the 2-part did you end up with in the end?

Early veg 1.3 ec.
Late veg/early flower 1.7 ec
Late flower 1.7 ec

The EC remains the same for late veg/early flower, and flower, but the mix/nutrients are completely different.

Actually, I was going to end it there since I’m on my phone and tending to the garden, but I’ll just type it out right quick.

Early Veg
Silica 12.5 ml
MCB 8 grams
MCA 4.5 grams
PH down 15 drops

Late Veg/Early Flower
Silica 12.5 ml
MCB 10 grams
MCA 10 grams

Rest of Flower
Silica 5ml
MCA 12.5 grams
BE 5 grams
SC 5 grams
PH down 5 drops

Hey there Phy! Great log and work you're doing for sure! I noticed a handful of people growing the Blunt Force Trauma...sounded interesting, so I started my own investigating and realized you were a member here. Just got caught up on everything and me likey what I'm seeing!! Love the way you document things. GOW, Ground Pounder, and several/multiple others look and sound like absolute winners! Keep doing your thang bro!
