Hey lsrbrn, too many people getting too anal about a couple of seeds imo. if it smokes well then what's the issue. Anyways, these soil ones look frosty, and I will pop over to check out your new journal. you closing this journal?

Peace, DST
I agree, I've never really gotten to anal about seeds.

I'm not closing this journal by any means. I feel like that last batch was cut short and the hermie ruined everything. This grow has gone 100% smoothly and the plants are happy as can be. I feel like I'm finally delivering what I promised you guys...

I'm somewhere near 4 weeks into flower, so I'd say this journal is really just getting started.

I picked it up @ RDC. Those are the ones that had the powdery mildew on them. I gave them a very, very light spray with some fungicide and I've got the humidity down to about 18%. I know veggin' plants like it a little higher, but I'm trying to stop that shit in it's tracks before it becomes a battle all grow long.

If these cuts are legit then I should be happy with these. The only strain I've ever really been unhappy with is that Fucking Incredible, it was SO easy in soil and such a pain in the ass in hydro. It had 3 hermie's out of the lot of 12 (and 1 completed retarded hermie mutant plant). They weren't feminized seeds and I just feel like this strain REALISTICALLY is junk. But if you took the time and found a strong female of the purple/dark pheno, it would be a fantastic grow. There's one pheno in there that is truly something special, and unfortunately I only have one of those plants left, the other is the one that I just found to be a hermie.

I've always loved Sour D (although it's not as highly regarded around here anymore) and if Madman is good we'll be in business.

Ah damnit....then there were 4.

I went in tonight for an "inspection and watering and found another hermie. Checked the "marking", it was another freakin FI #1. The good news is there wasn't a different sneaky plant, bad news is that now I'm down to 4 plants. I'm debating switching to a 400w light at this point.

Day 41 of flower.... I am starting to see seeds and I found another nanner today. This time in a top bud. I have NEVER had a hermie in the past and this strain has just got me so mad right now.

I'm going to finish it out and try to to freakin' daily checks for nanners. What an obnoxious problem to have. Hopefully it won't be too seeded. The previous batch is actually REALLY good. The smoke makes me really relaxed and tired. Everyone else said they got a "buzz" off of it and it gave them a real headie high, but that's not what I've found at all.

Smoke this shit, get high for a while and get really relaxed and tired. Time for a nap baby. I actually like it alot. I was smoking DP White Widow for the past 6-8 months and that stuff was a real serious high. I mean WAY up there high and never made at all sleepy.

This is a very clear high, not like a CBD type of high, just a real clear, calming, relaxing high.

Those plants look really nice, just make sure you pluck any bananas that show up.
For the most part I'm killin the nanners when I see them. Obviously some early ones got through because I have seeds in some places. I don't really care anymore, the last batch isn't as bad as I thought. Granted I have thrown alot of it into brownies and hash, but that's what's keeping me going on these ones. I'm only going to grow them out until my new beans get here and I get them germinated.

Hopefully they will show up here sometime this week and they will be sprouts by sometime next week so I'm hoping that in 7-10 days I'll have new little sprouts and I'll chop down these 4 plants to make room. That would give them about 57 days and thats plenty good enough for where these are going. I need to get going on something more productive. I have 4 plants sitting in a 4x8 tent with 1200w of light and about 300w of fans. I'm only running 600w of light, but the inefficiency is obvious. I've considered just leaving them in the dark for the next week and just seein' how they turn out.

It will be cool to see how you do with these serious white russian and chronic i've sent you.

I'm definitely looking forward to it. You notice I picked a more tried and true strain. I've NEVER had a hermie before these FI beans and my buddy who took clones from before we ever saw hermies got'em too.

I was actually torn between the Chronic and the White Russian when ordering so I'm glad to know that I'll be trying them both!

Thanks for being there man, with the cost of equipment and electricity I can't afford to take any more chances right now on questionable genetics.

you will love growing Chronic. I'm 8 weeks from seed and my plants in flood and drain are robust nutrient hogs which is too bad for the A-train I have in there too; so it's not a strain to grow together with anything that's very sensitive cause you are going to want to feed the Chronic as much as it wants.

How are those FI plants doing I been looking at VISC for a while and want to see how there stuff really is. FI was a 2008 High Times Top 10 Strains and i want to see it grown before buying some seeds

Fuck this strain is all I have to say....I was having a great year until this strain came into my life. I have plenty of seeds if you want them, I mean shit tons of fuckin seeds. I'm not really offering you seeds, but making a point. Those hermie son's of bitches, this is the least stable strain I've seen with my own two eyes. Out of 12 seeds I got the worst batch of shit I've ever seen. There was one good phenotype, but it was a fuckin' hermie.

I hade straight up hermies...two of them. The grew balls and hairs from the very beginning of flowering, not nanners, balls like a dude...

I had mutants...two of them also. They grew fucked up deformed leaves and were stunted hunks of shit

I had "nanner" hermies throughout 2 grows (why the fuck did I grow these twice?) and during the second grow through careful inspection I found that all but 2 plants had nanners on them. Out of 12 there were 2 viable plants and they weren't anything to write home to mom about. No 2 plants loooked even similar, all different phenotypes...I'm actually curious if this was the fault of the strain "Fucking Incredible" or the seedbank kindseed.com. They delivered the seeds promptly, but this was seriously a pack of genetic shit and was more like growing random bagseeds.

I look forward to my White Russian seeds that are hopefully on their way to me now. I need some good strong genetics again. My White Widow runs were fun and productive and this FI muck has had me in a funk about the whole hobby for awhile now. I'm actually tearing down my grow tents this week, I've been cleaning and sanitizing the last couple of days.

Bummer on the hermie issues Laser. The journal has been great though!

Here's my question, what are the odds you ever let us RIU members pick another strain for you?

:lol:

Haha, that's a good question. It'll be a little while. I need to go with something solid next to get some more solid bud. I'm glad I could grow it out, it was interesting, but worthless IMO. I'll grow out White Russian for my next grow, grow some nice donkey dicks and then I'll go back to something more exotic again and I'll let RIU choose again. I just have to get some more productive stuff going now to make up for the loss on FI. I have bud from it, so it's not the end of the world, and it's really a good stone. Very different from WW although at LEAST as strong. This bud is one hitter quitter stuff. It makes you "buckethead" all day if ya know what I mean. It's a clear high, but you walk around like a jackass just all day long.

You feel really relaxed, almost tired, but not sleepy and you can mosie through the day pretty good after smoking it. So all in all, even though mine is seeded and these plants where a headache, I would give the BUD a smoke report rating of about a 7.4 out of 10. I wouldn't be dissapointed if I bought it but the seeds would piss me off. There are a lot of 7.5+ strains I would choose before this one, but it's not a worthless smoke I guess is what I'm getting at. Pass if you're thinking about growing it though. A LOT better genetics out there for cheaper.

good report laser!!! i would fuckin hate the hermies too, always hate pluckin bananas
white russian is number one on my order list so your grow is going to determine if i order it or not (so make it good for me?? :P:P)....no pressure or anything :P:P hahah

In your opinion how successful would you say "plucking bananas" are at preventing the rest of the crop from getting seeded? I'm concerned I've got a hermie and I'd rather it didn't seed everything else you know?
