My 8hr flowering experiment

[Oregon Gardener]

There's an interesting discussion going on in the 315W LEC lamp thread about photomorphic responses when changing spectra from veg to bloom.

In other words, it's not just the light in your bloomroom that affects the stretch, it's also the light in veg and how different it is.

Thanks, I'll check it out.

I used cfl and a t5 for 3-4weks on 12:1 than a week of 12:1 with the 400mh then went straight to 8/16.
Mine seemed to stretch most during the week of mh 12:1.
If I had have left them another week they wouldn't fit in my cabinet.
I found that transplanting them and switching the light the next day gave them a good kick start. And they seem happy in the 2 gal pots now.
This time around tho I think it's easier to see that they will finish early. @skunkwreck weren't yours like 15 days ahead when I flipped?

10 days I believe...I'd have to scroll through my thread to be exact.

Thanks man
I'm super excited to smoke this.
Fattest buds I've gotten out of this cabinet yet and still plenty of time to fill out.
Not sure if it's because these were bred using a reduced cycle but they seem pretty happy in their environment.

I put a whack of beans to germ last night.
Hopefully I get a good group to pick n choose from and the next round after these shouldn't be to far behind.
I figure I got at least 3 weeks left so within a month the beans should be ready

I was gonna throw this pic up in the bodhi thread but it's only 3/4 bodhi.
Still love to get some feed back on it compared to its bodhi lineage.
Looks a lot different than the original ap13xsnowlotus mother.

I'm subbed now. Looks great.

Save you some pollen and back cross some of them plants. I would think that after a few generations they would acclimate and grow better.

1 kings blood
20 space phantoms going in solo cups tonight.
Finished setting up a small bx cabinet yesturday just for crosses and creating f2's.

 

[torontoke]

Kingsblood from immortal flowers just wouldn't germ.
Scuffed em soaked em paper towel...nothing.

4 grampas breath
3 honeybee
18 space phantoms in solos.

 

[skunkwreck]

Sounds like a nice variety... gonna seed it up ?

 

[torontoke]

Only the space phantoms.
They are going into a separate area.
I will only keep the best 2-3 females.
And the best male.
Not the hugest quantity to pick from but hopefully there's a gem or two.

Day 46

 

[torontoke]

day 50 today

 

[torontoke]

Smoked up a friend I haven't seen in a long time and he loved the space phantom. I was having a hard time describing the scent and taste and three pulls in he says holy Fuk does that taste like grapefruit.
So I go to the grocery store and buy a grapefruit cus I've never tried one before and he is 100% right.
I'm super curious if that is the taste that comes through on all of them.
How's yours going @skunkwreck ?

 

[skunkwreck]

They are coming along , probably got two more weeks left to finish... can't wait to try some .
