Looking awesome D as always
cheers z.
Looks like quite a beast! How long has that been flowering?

I'm not expecting much from my attempt, I'll probably only be able to get back there once or twice in next few months. Would be cool if we end up with some wild cannabis growing freely in the countryside though haha.
i think about 5 weeks i have been doing the light deprivation.

This is about the age mine was robbed at last year ,they was in there 7th week,all cbd strains, that I needed for meds.This year there Going in a Friends allotment,under a Greenhouse ,to help Combat any rain we have,we have a fair bit.But so far the last few week have been great.Going with 20 Tangie Auto's CBD .A friend has been doing them for the past year or so,The odd one is High in thc ,but vast majority are 1.1.Going full out Organic too,He is a great Veg gardener,and only grows Organically,so just gonna use his soil mix ,Horse/chicken Manure Hops and mulch has been on the plot about a week or so ,bit of lime too.So I'm hoping on good Results .Rigged them to horse pipe with t's running with a feeder ring around each plant ,cut watering time down.Water is around 6.2 from the tap ,but he said use the barrels he collects rain water in,it's what he uses ,and going on his veg and Fruit it works .So two options for water.Forgot to ph that .
I have a water tank attached to my greenhouse roof. i never ph that. the water from my tap seems to fluctuate between 7.2 and 8 though...pain in the ass like.

Good day all !!
I'm new to the weed forums....over the past 4 months I'm catching on to the vernacular.....I'm not sure what BigHorn meant by the TT he's missing....likely because no grows for the last 10 yrs. A buddy had a few xtra WW's......why not...been thinking about it...legal where I am now.
Dusted off my old ballasts...400w MH & 1000w HPS. Fired up the MH and off I went.
I knew nothing about the WW personality so been reading a shitload of opinions for 4 months. I've made mistakes and keep on learning.
I felt everything just stalled...Into week 6 was real concerned....afraid to check trichs for fear of having started to cloud up because need more time !!.Plus my runt was running behind. When finally checked trichs...mostly clear !! I'm on day 53 now...still lots of clear...good news again.
Finally caylexes started to "pop" about 5 days ago and buds filling out nicely ...whew !!....thought was destined for disappointment.
Happy to find is holding true to its characteristics of a longer bloom and late weight gain. I didn't realize trichs could be this cooperative.
I'm old and smart enough to have patience...haven't even grabbed a sample bud and won't spark up till 2 weeks of curing. And this will be the 1st time at the cure. Planning on doing 6 month...it's for me...want to see how good it can be !!..... Truth is....the VCR tape I borrowed (stop laughing !!) to teach growing stated....and I take copious notes..." dry for 7-10 days then smoke ". Worked OK back then...I had the trich knowledge so always got high.

Things have greatly changed.....but I'm trying. A few pics of day 51...and thanks for listening, Peace

Thanks SOA....appreciate your kind comments. I met a guy from England....Desmond.....and took him on our "pool team"....an excellent player.. I wasn't into football at the time...but he was a die-hard Chelsea fan so I followed his interests.....he did play football when he lived over the pond. Great guy and pool player.. Haven't seen him in many years......still text on occasion. As a compliment to him....I stayed with Chelsea. They did have some great years... What I do enjoy.....because I'm from Massachusetts....I have the Celtics....Red Sox...Bruins...and the Patriots to back. Some outstanding teams !!

Dez is the guy in the middle with green shirt.....IMG_20140827_243425379.jpg.......Peace......and it is amazing how American chicks go crazy over your accent !! Gives you the edge !!!

I have been struggling to get the Real Exodus Clone only ,Seems everyone has done away with it ,for Hazes.The nearest you are gonna get in seed is some I ordered last promo ,Underground Original UGORG #1 Exodus Cheese x Exodus Cheese x Blues Livers ,but you have to look for that cheese Pheno .But it's a very nice plant in its self ,I have done there blues ,but it's not like the Barnsley blues ,but perhaps that is because I just picked ,the best looking out of the 4 I popped,killer skunk x blues livers .While I am messing around looking for these phenos ,I'm doing greenhouse seeds Exodus cheese ,that has the look of Exodus cheese but not the smell ,but nice smoke.I have loads of people I know trying to source me Exodus Cheese ,waiting game I get it .But I also want the Original Blues ,and after yesterday I know it was a Sweet tasting pungent Skunk # 1 ,so I also looking on finding that ,but did manage to get the jack Herer clone ,just needs getting made into a nice mother now.So I have a lot of work a head ,So after this one that's in everything can take a back seat till I get that Pheno of skunk # 1.
i had it back in the early 2000's but lost it to the wicked Babylon...... personally i didnt see what all the fuss was about. but , at the time i also had an amazing widow/snow white cross, coca cola, akorn, esb, the preston durban cut plus others!!!

Nice work mate. Always had CG on the hit list but never got round to it. Was going to give there triangle kush cookies ago after I read good things about it but it’s gone out of stock and never came back in. What’s the stability of their strains like?

Also, anyone on here tried anything from the plug seedbank? Got a couple of strains that look banging but I’m hesitant to pull the trigger after being tempted buy dank genetics and they never turned out good.
hello! so are dank genetics a load crap then?. have you tried the sunset crosses?

I’ve got the sticky sherbet in flower. Looking ok but the jury’s still out. Il let you know the verdict. Wasn’t impressed with the other strains I ran from them. Won’t be using them again unless this sticky sherbets turns out amazing.

Don’t mean to be a party pooper but sadly stardawg is already on the way out. Too many big commercial U.K. growers have the cut and it’s going for £150 an oz whereas other strains can easily fetch £230+ not knocking stardawg I like it but yeah it’s almost gone the way of cheese
Sorry mate i never seen that reply what strains go for 230+ on Oz ?
