Thanks warisnottheanswer, just getting over a cold here, but I have some updated pics.

The reds are really showing on the unknown indica, most likely do to low temps, and nitrogen deprivation

I'll post some group shots in the next thread, but this one looks like it's about done. I'm just waiting for the trichs to turn, which could take a week or 2.

I was down with a cold, but managed to enjoy Thanks Giving, and feeling better this week. Hope you all enjoyed the holiday.

The 3 that went in early should be ready for harvest in a week or 2. The others could go another 5 weeks, I think.

I found a couple more LSTed branches with male flowers popping, so I plucked them with tweezers, and saved them. Maybe I'll get some pollen out of them once they're dry.

The the other BMS clone, is pushing roots - gotta get that one into some soil soon.

The sativa mother I tried to save finally went belly up. But its a good excuse to search-out another - more potent - sativa strain.

I got most these pics after lights out, so excuse the flash.

Red leaves look pretty

Bud shot - unknown indica

Same strain

BMS - fat bud

BMS purple pheno

BMS purple pheno

Top view - same plant

Here's the one that was topped twice - the super-cropped branches off to the left were the 2 that popped the male flowers

BMS #3 pheno

Same plant in front

Check out the difference between the indica and the BMS in this group shot

This BMS clone - from the cutting kept in the fridge for 6 weeks - is tolerating very cold night time temps very well

All comments welcome

that's some nice looking U.I

Crazy different looking than the grow under CMH lights. I suppose most of that has to do with the lack of UV in the HPS spectrum, but I've been able to get the night time temps way down too.

The buds do look more dense so I can't complain lol
Thanks for stopping by

hey green cross everthing is looking nice and tasty! did you ever put any more pics of that one stem you were re-veging?

Thanks Fishin'

That stem I was trying to reveg finally died (turned brown)

Aw sad day i kinda wanted to see if that worked out...have you ever re-veged one from a stem before you tried this one?

No, but I've seen people do it, and it only seems to work about 50% of the time. I guess if I were going to try it again, I'd leave a few leaves on her, but the old (flowering) growth always dies off any how.

Not much changes in the past week. Started flushing the rest of them now, and the trichs on the indica seem to be turning... I'll be sure to post some pics before the chop.

K-train seeds are also ready to go, but I'll wait until the end of the week, just to be safe. I don't want them to end up stunted in 16 oz beer cups, before they have room to grow.

I'm looking forward to doing a new grow from seed.

speaking of seed. I've was leaning towards Soma seeds NYCD, but after doing a little research I find it's not the original NYCD.

Now I'm leaning towards Kings Kush - one warisnottheanswer is familiar with.

Another possibility is kushberry, as it Jack Herer.

And for the sativa I'll be ordering greenhouse's mixed pack containing 4 different haze, + hawaiian snow.

I'm open to other suggestions if you guys have any. So many strains, so little space LOL

personall, i hate gh seeds and practices... but my first grow was the sativ pack... and i wish i cloned that grow... i still miss my arjans haze..

 

[TrynaGroSumShyt]

Hey gc. did your gigabud take 5-6 weeks as advertised.

 

[Green Cross]

No, this was a first, but I doubt leaving foliage on the plant would've made any difference.

Glad to hear the positive review on arjan's have. I'm thinking SSH or one of the other hazes will be a good replacement for the lemon pepper (tasting) sativa I lost.

Hey gc. did your gigabud take 5-6 weeks as advertised.

Gigabud took as long as the BMS around 13 weeks. I'll never use G-13 labs again.

The indica is almost ready, seeing more amber now.

I gave one of them the final flush yesterday, and was surprised the water ran so orange... so I flushed 3 gals of warm water through the soil.

I had been using plain water for a couple weeks already. It's all organic so I'm not too concerned, but I plan to start flushing more thoroughly, and earlier on, in the future.

the man greencross is still doing his thing. plus rep to you sir just because im in a good mood.

my gigabud took 11 weeks. and i dont even want to speak on g13 power skunk.

i had ssh in that mix pack, and ssh has a peppery taste to it too. but it was great.. but the arjans.. whew!
and honorable mention to nevilles haze from gh, it was nice too.

 

[warisnottheanswer]

ive been out the loop for a sec but i see u havent lost a step! great job my dude!

 

[Green Cross]

Thanks for all the great comments, and encouragement! the next week should be busy.

1. Indica is ready for harvest - just waiting for the pots to dry out first.

2. Germination of the K-train seeds.

Looks like we're going to get a heat wave this weekend... above freezing!

So many strains so little time. Haze seems to be the standard for a nice head high, and I'm not looking for anything too psychedelic.

Thanks for the complement warisnottheanswer! Stick around because the K-train is now boarding

Late Saturday night: The (GH) K-train seeds were soaked in distilled water - in a shot glass, and kept in a warm place until they sank.

Once they sank to the bottom of the shot glass, they were moved to a soaked napkin, until they sprouted.

By late last night 5 had sprouted, and as of this morning 7 of the 10 have been planted into 12 oz red beer cups, and watered with a very dilute (1/4 strength) mixture of fish emulsion, and earth grow bloom nutes.

I put plastic baggies on the cups so they have good moisture when they break through the soil. This also helps them shed their shells.

Now they're sitting on a makeshift warming tray, in the cloning cab, set up next to the BMS #3 pheno (mother). I'll have pictures as soon as they break the soil.

I was a little worried, because these seeds were already several months old, and were exposed to 100+ degree temps - over a couple days - due to an A/C failure, during the summer, but it looks like they're 100% viable.

I'll provide a link to the K-train grow, once this journal is wrapped up.

The 2 indica are ready for harvest, but I'm waiting for 50% - 70% amber trichs, for a more stoned effect

1 BMS should be ready in a week or so, and the rest will hopefully ripen up quickly with the extra light.

It's all about timing now: I figure the K-train can stay in their beer cups for 4 weeks if necessary - about the time the BMS is ready.

 

[Green Cross]

I hope you all are having a good Holiday Season!

Ripening seems to be taking forever. I'm not sure how many weeks it's been (13?), but I expected them all to be finished by now.

The 2 unknown Indica look ready, so maybe they'll come out this week, but I'm still not seeing as much amber on the trichomes, as I would like.

After these pics were taken I added a bunch more reflective material, so maybe that will help ripening, without raising the temps too much.

I think it was 2 weeks ago I watered the GHS K-train seed. 7 out of the 10 look good. 1 is a mutant runt, and the other 2 didn't sprout, but 7 is good! I'll flower the BMS mother, on the next run, for a total of 8 under 800w.

Here are the Babies

Working on the 3rd set of leaves.

The unknown indica that received the EG Catalyst, is ready for harvest. She'll probably get the ax tomorrow morning since the soil is already dry.

The humidity is so low, drying will take place in a closed cardboard box.

Here's what ripe looks like:

yes sir,that is ripe,can not wait to here about the smoke+rep,some more
