I decided to take a break from taking a break and dropped some of my personal little side projects into rapid rooters on 8/1. There appears to be a 100% germ rate from everyone. I'm still waiting for a few to break the plug over the hole and quite a few to shed their shells. I moved about half of them into their 1/2 gallon pots.

Here's the list of what I decided to test;
1. BCK x Pandemic
2. BCK x God O War
3. Hyper Dragon x God O War
4. Darshan #3
5. Hyper Dragon x Moontang Mystery a.k.a. "Moon Dragon" courtesy of @JL2G
6. Terpenado Mystery x God O War
7. Terpenado Mystery x Pandemic

I still haven't decided how deep I want to commit yet. I figured I'll just let it ride and decide as I go. It should be an interesting and fun test run.
I sure hope the GOW quit stretching. They're maxing out the little tent. Lmfao.
And I misspoke myself when I said the Moon Dragon had a good bit of stretch. They were mixed with the GOW at first til they moved to the tent with the pretty boy.
The Moon Dragon are only mid stretchers, about 90% as of now. Looking quite gorgeous too. Lol
I'll get some fresh pics of both for ya in the am.

Some quick cliff notes on the above and what I'm expecting in some form or fashion.

BCK Phylex Cut - A frosty girl with an old school, mid 90's high and tingle on the exhale
Pandemic - Colorful terp machine
God O War - My near and dear love child
Hyper Dragon - Beefy funk mutant
Darshan #3 - A glimpse into the earliest phase of my Nepalese project. THC-V meets my love child
Moontang Mystery - Dense nuggets of gooey frost with a nice, mellowing, calming high.
Terpenado Mystery - The same as Moontang Mystery
Awesome. You've really done an excellent job on GOW pairing. With over 50 specimens I can say this for a fact.

2 main pHenos of GOW if I may for the masses.

Ghost Train Haze Leaner -
- stretchy and tall. Needs topping and possibly supercrop
- bouquet is very alluring. Oldskool Freshen Up gum meets ungodly wonderful earthiness
- up high. Lasts a good while. Can get fiddly with stuff.

9 Pound Hammer Leaner -
- shorter and stockier. Fatter leaves. Some purpling
- bouquet is similar to above Freshen Up gum but more "purple" if that makes sense. Like Homer says, "purple is a flavor" (donuts lol)
- high is very comforting. Good pre-dinner smoke so you can nosh out. Won't put you in da couch. Floaty fun. Delightful.

I estimate at least 20% THC on GOW. No tests, just gut.

Pandemic is something to behold as well. The ROCK HARD nuggetry and STRONG Hawaiian Punch bouquet/flavor is like no other. It'll warp you for a bit. Like almost confusion for a sec lol. Coats your mouth and leaves you in flavor country. 1x 1g joint to the dome and you'll be lit TF UP.

That sounds about right for both parents. HD and MM both weren't very aggressive stretchers. They maintained their own lanes pretty well unlike GOW. Some GOW can really race during stretch.

GTH leaners are definitely more tolerable for me personally even though 9PH leaners are my personal favorite effect. The 9PH leaners still catch me off guard from time to time and I end up way too lit to function if I over indulge. GOW's a go-to favorite amongst even some of my snobbiest friends for smell, flavor, and high. #1, #3, #4, or #8, take your pick. #7, #9, #10, and #11 are what I gravitate to if I'm looking for something headier and don't want to worry about being incoherent for hours.

@Phylex , how are you brother! Just catching up on things and I see you have things running tight as usual. Beautiful specimens being posted. I selected ground pounder pheno 1&2 and blunt force trauma for its unique smell and medicinal qualities for my wife. These are cuttings from my first test run for you. These are in half gallon pots in a peat coco blend and been fed an all purpose organic dry amendment only. I would love to join a “grow off” of your gear as I’m sitting on some and I know what it brings. I’ll get some better pics to show where they’re at now. I’m on roughly day 40 ish of flower now. This was I can’t remember ??. Thank you for the check in by the way, means a lot.??✌? 14F9AEC3-AAAB-42CF-9D14-371F7B6828AE.jpeg D121523F-F7AB-4FCC-A1B8-2D5F81989084.jpeg

@Phylex , how are you brother!

Hey, Great to see you @Texagonian ! Thanks brother. I'm just dipping my toe in after taking a little mini break myself. I've been sick the last couple of weeks but I'm feeling much better now. I know you've been working hard and handling business. I hope you're able to get some well deserved rest and you and the rest of the family are doing well. I'm happy to hear and it warms my heart to know Blunt Force Trauma is providing some medicinal value for your wife. That alone means the world to me. Your plants look great and whenever you're in need of any more seeds, or if anything new piques your interest, don't hesitate to let me know. I got you brother. ?

Thank you for the warm welcome back and I’m glad to see all the familiar names as well. All the folks I haven’t mingled with yet, how y’all doing! I’m glad you’re over being sick and feeling better. It’s been one hell of a year and things have been weighing heavy on me. I’m doing well and am getting my head back in the game. It’s been fairly warm here which has been giving me less than desirable conditions. I appreciate your offer and will always make a spot for any of your work. This garden will be done and gone in a few weeks to make space for some new bean popping Phenohunting fun ????✌?

All of the babies are up and shed their shells. I only lost one for getting a little too handsy when I pulled on it's shell and snapped its tap root. It's not a big loss as I'm hoping to really thin this herd once they start revealing sex.

Here's the new boys and girls being tested. They were dropped into rapid rooters on 8/1.

IMG_4936.jpeg

I decided to quit putting it off and I started the seeds before cleaning out the room. I still need to clean out the tray, reservoir, and Flora Flex flex system. Procrastination is a MF'er but I still have a little bit of time before it becomes an issue. I'm hoping to get everything cleaned up some time this week.

I decided to veg in my flower room, so I'm using my flower lights. I only have the HLG-600 powered on at this point. I have it dimmed down to about 50% power. I started off with the lights raised quite high to see how the seedlings would react. I typically just veg with T-5's. Needless to say they're reaching a little higher than I like so I just lowered the lights quite a bit this morning.

Most of the seedlings are working on their second sets.

1. BCK x Pandemic (6/6)

2. BCK x God O War (6/6)

3. Hyper Dragon x God O War (4/4) - Pollination didn't take well and I only ended up with about 12 seeds. So I only started four since I'm not currently planning to take clones this run. Everyone else was a full stock of seeds.

4. Darshan #3 (God O War #3 x Nepal Highland IBL) - (2/2) I only started two because I had two extra slots to fill from the HD x GOW row. The official Nepalese test runs will be conducted on a future grow.

5. Hyper Dragon x Moontang Mystery a.k.a. "Moon Dragon" courtesy of @JL2G (5/6) I killed one getting a little too handsy and snapped its tap root.

6. Terpenado Mystery x God O War (6/6)

7. Terpenado Mystery x Pandemic (6/6)

Those sound interesting! I’m gonna keep up on the grow for sure. Glad to be back @Phylex ✌?

BCK Phylex Cut

Not the gooey trichome coverage, but rather the hard, beach sand type. It'll feel gritty.

She has a higher leaf to calyx ratio so she may not be for everyone. But this girl is special for those that want something more nostalgic. The flavor and high was like a time machine that instantly brought me back to the mid 90's. She's a very old soul that leaves a wasabi like tingle when exhaled through the nose. She's incredibly easy to grow and has responded exceptionally well to any sort of training I threw at her. I'm really interested to see what she brings with some of these new pairings.

Did you look at your dogs butt all day, or just for the pic?
I'm an ass, I know.
Gimme slack, I been drinking. Lol.
Love me a great day with the doggo's.
Blue would be so fun to see at the beach.
Oh she'd make a spectacle of herself.

Lmao. That was my girls view. She took the pic. I’m off to the right holding the leash and for good reason. Only one potential dog fight. Someone’s dog got away from them and came running over. I was laying down and Onyx jumped up, trampled me, and went after the dog that came up behind us. Thankfully I still had a good hold on him and the guy put some hustle into it when he saw my dogs reaction. Other than that, it truly was a great day. Onyx had a blast running into the ocean and through the water. I had to keep him on leash so I was running through the water with him so he could enjoy it. It was awesome. He even had a “WTF was that Dad” moment when a wave engulfed him. He hadn’t experienced that before and it caught him off guard. It was pretty funny. I really wish we had a private beach where I could let him off leash. He would absolutely love it. Unfortunately he doesn’t get along with other animals or humans. He’s a look but can’t touch kinda guy when it comes to other people.

Blue is the opposite, she loves to say hi to everyone and everything. Lol.
Whether they want a hi or not. Lmfao.

Tester Throwbacks: 9lb. Blueberry by GK Genetics

Lineage: Hyper Blueberry Blast x 9lb. Hammer by GK Genetics
1. Hyper Blueberry Blast by Reno Genetics (Blueberry Blast x Hyper Glue)
i. Blueberry Blast by Snowhigh (Blue Dream x Johnny Blaze)
2. Hyper Glue by Reno Genetics [GG4 x (Afternoon Delight x C99)]
i. Afternoon Delight {Ghost OG x Skunk Haze} x Shrom x Tangie
3. 9lb. Hammer by Jinxproof Genetics (Goo Berry x Jesus OG)
i. Goo Berry (Afgoo x Blueberry)
ii. Jesus OG (Hells Angel OG x Jack The Ripper)

Aroma: Sharp lemon floor cleaner

Status: Strong aroma and high. It showed a lot of potential. However due to the frequency of intersex issues during testing, the project was shelved. It'll probably take extensive work and testing to stabilize, so there isn't any timeline on when I might circle back to working with it and attempt to correct its issues.
