God's Poison June 29. On June 28 the Pacific Northwest was, if I'm not mistaken, the hottest place in earth. She loved it, spoiled AF tho. :weed:
I'll post an update of where she's at in the next day or so.
Would love to see an update on this one. Got God's Poison as a freebie and haven't been able to find much info on this one.

Plants were all transplanted to 2 Gallons end of June. Sexed, deleted males, and cloned fems yesterday (46 days from seed to soil ; day 5 of 12/12).
Summary:
afghan 6 fems from one pack
Gelato 6 fems from one pack
pink 7 fems from one pack
strawberry 1 fem from one pack! ( I kept two more but quite sure they are males)
wedding cake 6 fems from one pack
** I lost two of the Strawberry seeds so was working with 9 seeds that popped out of 10 seeds. Unfortunately of the 9 remaining, I have only 1 female, and two suspect males (killed 6 males already). All other strains were consistent.

For comparison sake... (these stats are BEFORE deleting males, and many of the tallest were males). I will give both the min-max and average height, as well as the range of weights (given the same food schedule).

afghan - 14"-20" (average 17") ; weight 1,600 - 2,300g
gelato - 18"-24" (average 21") ; weight 1,700 - 2,200g
pink - 18"-22" (average 20") ; weight 1,600 - 2,300g
strawberry - 15"-21" (average 18") ; weight 1,400 - 2,100g
wedding - 17"-25" (average 20) ; weight 1,800 - 2,500g

Family Photo - Flower Day 17. I selected the most typical example from each strain. Left to Right - Afghani, Gelato, Pink, Strawberry, Wedding Cake. No topping was done as I wanted to see how all the different types grow naturally. No training other than a bit of LST to help bend branches down to spread out. Only significant pruning is that a) I stripped the bottom few branches closest to media for cloning and space and b) for each plant I took out a total of 4 branches (two opposing pairs) to allow airflow and light penetration.

The Afghani plants are all squat and have been slower to feed, but are otherwise healthy. I only have one strawberry which is a bummer.

Last year I built an aerocloner which has been bomber for me. Took one cut from each plant on Day 5, and was 100% success rate planting them yesterday when they looked like this... (14 days from cutting and with no interventions... same cloner water from day 1).

A number of them show some pink pistils! I understand/assume this comes from the God Bud that is in the BlueGod male. The pink pistils are most prominent on the Afghani but show a bit elsewhere.

Thanks for sharing, those look great. Are those pistils or leaves? Idk if you saw the skunkberry photo I posted about a page back, but I was pleasantly surprised that as advertised, one of the phenos produced pink pistils. Not too try to steal attention or anything, just figured you might find it interesting.

beautiful plants, what kind of soil mix/feeding regiment are you using?
Thank you, the compliment is appreciated. They are in 65 gal fabric pots of organic soil, the base of which is as follows:
Roughly
1/3 Promix HP
1/3 Perlite/vermiculite/clay pellets
1/3 sea soil compost(bagged)/manure/worm castings (from home and store)
Gaia Green power bloom
+ a bunch of other goodies like home made crab meal and oyster flour, alfalfa, azomite glacial rock dust, forest soil, bokashi bran, etc. Basically anything I could get my hands on. A couple handfuls of worms from the bin in each pot.
They also get home made liquid nutes and I foliar spray aloe on occasion.
 
Currently growing Black Candyland and Black Funk Dawg
1 fem Black Candyland
2 fem Black Funk Dawg
With all the fucken power shortages here, I was glad I even got some females so I know these gals are solid ones. Looking into buying some of the Blue lines since those are already tested. What sativa strain can you guys recommend?
 
my oh my, what impressive plants you all have !! (I've been following this thread for awhile now)

Back in Dec 2020, feeling rich with discount codes, I ordered Double Black Cookies + Black G.D.P Haze + Jordan's Mix (figuring that would be a fun way to get a wide mystery variety!) shipped several weeks later with a freebie of Black Cotton + several extra seeds per bag.

So I decided to try Black Cotton (cotton candy x blackberry kush) labeled as a 65-75 day sativa.
planted 4 seeds, all 4 germinated. I decided to try mainlining, cut the tops and put in water to sex them. 2 Male, 2 Female. Perfect.
flowered in 2 x 5 gallon fabric pots with coco, AN nutes, in a tight DIY 2' x 3' x 5'5 box, wire SCROG. Upgraded LED to SF2000 a couple weeks into flower and they stretched way higher than I anticipated, with lots of side-branching. . . leaving a couple buds near 10" from the light. (perhaps why the plant on the left is foxtailing?)
I think I'm near week 10, but I lost count. May chop tomorrow, as trichomes look mostly cloudy with maybe 5% amber.
It's been smelling delicious for the past month, candy-berry type aromas.

looks like something I would normally pay top dollar for - so I'm thinking it's pretty much done !!

Devastated. Finding nanners in ALL the ladies. The worst part is I can’t understand why??

what could possibly explain a room with 5 strains all throwing nanners at the same time

i’m sure there are no light leaks as I checked when room set up and again this morning (there was a new green led for the last week but it’s relatively dim and I feel confident based on comments of others it should be an issue)

for example even if ph was off, or whatever like it doesn’t make sense that every single plant would throw nanners??? I’ve been feeding them at 5.8 600-900ppm nothing crazy and I let 20% runoff. You can see from previous photos that they look mostly health. The nugs are stacking!!

so what the fuck. I could live with it if I at least knew what to fix.

maybe heat and light stress as I have a lot of light in there but mostly they’ve looked happy and again how would they all herm??

this is how the room was looking. Yes a few plants (close foreground on left) have some issues zooming in but overall the majority look happy no?

That's brutal.
I'm thinking you have a timer malfunction or light leak, clearly something environmental if 5 different strains all went hermie at once

Is there any chance there was some colloidal silver or similar accidentally introduced into your flower space?

I agree something mass environmental (and prolonged?? so get almost every plant affected) is probable.
But I've been very careful about light leaks before a plant when in and checking since. I have max min thermometers that rule out any mass heat event. I use EC/PH meters which I actually maintain. I'm going over everything and it just doesn't add up. The plants are mostly stacking save for maybe 4 of the bunch that have visible issues.

I've grown all sorts of crappy weed without a Hermie. I'd be looking at your timer as H G Griffin mentioned. Or a light leak, but you say there isn't, so timer is next.
