Almost all the new strains I try will flower in the summer, as my longest day is 14 hours 7 minutes. I hope they will get used to it here and wait a little longer. Our rain is more in the summer time. Most years it drys up in the fall.Interesting breeding is way over my head but love your
Wow I always admired people who breed shit and play with crossing, I always grab some seeds and clone them or I've tried like 5 autos
Especially with mold issues, I like tried and tested strains.... indoor is different.
This year outside I tried
Peyote cookies
LSD
for mold resistance
Black Dog
Candy kush
Pineapple Express
Pineapple chunk
For quick finish time...we sometimes frost hard in September and weather before that is perfect for mold growth. So anything more than 8 weeks is a huge gamble.
I also threw in some Deisel MOB from Maine honest herb company just to try it hope it finishes in on time?
I've harvested monster buds and had to cut them into baby buds just to stop the mold from taking all my shit, some years lost lbs to mold, or harvest early due to weather even on early strains. Here is to a warm dry fall
The first year I didn't cut them up and the mold spread in the buds while it was drying.Almost all the new strains I try will flower in the summer, as my longest day is 14 hours 7 minutes.

I've had to break down my big buds too. I try to wash everything in a H2O2 bath, rinse well, then sling them dry in a salad spinner. 24 hours spread out in an air conditioned space, and they ready for brown bags. Works pretty good.
Wow girls are looking great ganga gurl!!! Starting to see crowning yet?Since my gf has the next 3 days off I'm hoping to get the rest of the cages put up.
In any case they are all humming right along and I'm more then excited for what is to come.View attachment 4162593View attachment 4162594View attachment 4162598

Wow .....we are 80 days from October 1 when do you harvestThey won't flower for another 3 weeks..and thank you
I cut out all the rot and mold I can see. This is for what is left. But I try to wash everything. Even the "clean" pot will turn the wash water dirty. When it's whole limbs, I just swish them around in a bucket of H2O2 water, then a bucket of rinse water. Hang them with a fan blowing by them, but not right on them for a couple three hours. Then dry as you normally would.The first year I didn't cut them up and the mold spread in the buds while it was drying.
U wash and sling dry your nugs? No way dude I've heard of people doing that,but I couldn't! Does it help the mold stop spreading after you hang them?
Besides it would take forever I'm already so stressed for harvest it takes over my life for a month and my house. Paper bag are great but I dry it enough with a dehumidifier while hanging and put in totes, tried paper bags and it was crazy keeping track of a hundred bags so the totes help me keep strains separate. I've learned to work around the mold an lose as little of the plant as possible but hope some of these strains are more resistance because watching the mold eat your harvest sucks!!! It feels more like a battle than excitement for so much good weed[/QUOTE

This is the water from washing about half an ounce of Ass Cheese.
