Variety of Singles from Pick & Mix at Attitude- Pics

[Barrelhse]

A quick look at some things coming up. The white bucket in front is a Flav, but it 's looking male. Smells good, though, so I guess I'll use it for pollen. There's a JTR male in here, too, but ya can't see it. Others are Space Queen, Critical+, and Wild Rose, all fem. Some mixes I made, too- Agent Orange with Caramelo and Querkle, and Caramelo x Vortex. Looks like at least one fem of each. These are around 7 wks veg.

That querkle and PE and the x AO look super fat! Actually they all look good as usual. I actually heard tat some other breeders were having roblems with their AO crosses and had to pull the whole line. You must of had a real winner in your garden. But what an amzing group of updates, I have only missed yourr thread for a feew days and you killed it, always keeps me interested.:up:

Thank you for your input, I'm having fun with this thread, glad you're enjoying it.
The AO mixes I've done look good, it seems to beef them up and adds a lot of aroma. I think I got lucky on the father. I had 2 males, these were from the first one. The second one had a nice orange smell but I haven't started any of the seeds from that. Anyway, the PExp x AO is impressive- sticky and frosty at 5 wks, good bud production and irresistible smell. These AO crosses (one with Missing) both show really long stems with few nodes, but the buds are huge, no bananas, great smell.

Oh yeah. We haven't seen any of those yet, I had a Sweet Deep but I broke it after it germed.

 

[itslogics]

hopefully that deep grapefruit works out, I'm really curious about that one...and the violator kush. Sorry but that name just sounds awesome lol

My Sweet Deep seed took a long time to germ, like 8 or 9 days. Don't know if that's characteristic, but don'y give up on it if it's slow.

Awesome report man !

there are not enough positive adjectives in the english language to describe what i have just seen here...you should make a coffee table picture book of your plants(i would make sure i had a few copies)....everything looks like it should be in some sort of super bud collection picture magazine.WOW...i have tried for years but never gotten results like what your doing...is there a secret to your success that you could share with us..like maybe the type of soil you use or nutes or compost,teas,ect.please forgive me for going way off topic,but i am totally in awe of everything youve done.

 

[Barrelhse]

Thank you. I really have no special techniques. I use Pro-Mix and Farfard potting soil, I avoid MirGro because of fungus gnats. I fertilize with Peters and MirGro at 30% of what they say- if they call for 1 Tblespoon/gal I use 1 teaspoon. I use regular tap water that sits in 5 gal buckets for a day or so and only feed every 2-3 waterings. I use high N for veg and early 12/12, then 15-30-15 (again weak) occasionally during flower. I keep it as simple as possible, in fact my set-up is somewhat primitive. I don't do anything unless they ask, then I try respond to their needs with a measured response to avoid creating other problems.
These multi-strain grows are a challenge because what works great for some may not be adequate for others, but I spend a lot of time with my plants and keep a good eye on them. I like to pull them all out 2 or 3 times a week to take a look and water them well, at which time I can deal with any individual needs.
I think that good light, lots of moving fresh air, and keep them watered is the best advice.. If you use a soil with nutes in it you shouldn't need to feed much at all.
I've been doing this since 1985, indoor since 1999. I've tried Hempy Buckets and Bubble Hydro, but I find dirt is, in the end, the most time-efficient, cost-efficient, and most forgiving, while being the least mess, equipment, special shit, and hassle.
I meant to take pics today but it didn't happen- maybe tomorrow. I'm waiting on some harvests and have some veg. stuff raring to go into 12/12, incl. Space Queen, Critical+, Wild Rose, and some Caramelo x AO and Caramelo x Vortex. Also a Flav male and Jack the Ripper male. flav smells nice, JTR smells like burning rubber.
Next up to germ (about a week) will be :
Chocolope (DNA)
The Kali (Big Buddha)- never figured out why I bought this one
Qleaner
Chernobyl
Pandora's Box
Cheese Quake
and some homemade to be determined.

Some updates on the flower room, didn't have time for the seedlings today. I'll go one strain at a time because I never know in what order they'll upload (as usual).
This is a Critical+ from Dinafem, just put it in 12/12 four days ago. Has a nice smell when the stem is rubbed, maybe lemony but time will tell.

 

[Barrelhse]

This is the Caramelo (Lavender/Indica) at 45 days. Last clone from this, but lots of seeds. Smells like Lavender-scented dish soap, very sticky, buds are on the fluffy-sativa side and a little light but still a good yield and very nice smoke. Lavender/fuel taste and a good 50/50 buzz that lasts a while. Good wake and bake.

 

[Barrelhse]

Pakistan Valley, World of Seeds Landrace. Day 67, supposed to be 45-55. Again, the last clone from this strain. All these have taken a long time, I've been yanking them at 70 but they could go more. This one I'll leave for 11 or 12. Huge calyxes and very frosty; has a narcotic smell and taste, quite stoney, but it is not fruity-sweet as advertised. I wonder if I got the right one? Anyway, it's a tall plant with very swollen nugs but a lot of plush leaf in the bud, like hashplant.

 

[Barrelhse]

Kushberry x Skunk#1, DNA. Great plant, hearty yield, excellent smell and flavor, a little mild but that's OK because you want to smoke it all day. This was from the DNA Skunktrain freebies of Dec '09. I had 2 fem and male. One fem was a 7 week and huge yield but not as potent. This is the longer flowering strain, a little lighter in the bud weight but a bit more tasty. Anyway, this is the last of the KB, this one is at 60 days and needs about a week.

 

[Barrelhse]

Querkle x Agent Orange. Only been in 9 days, seems to have the AO stretch to the stems. Pics won't upload, I'll open a new post.

 

[Barrelhse]

Here it is, Querkle x AO.

 

[Barrelhse]

Here is a Pineapple Exp. clone, also one more of these in flower and that's all. This is at 34 days, tend to finish in 7-8 wks.

 

[Barrelhse]

Missing x Vortex. Smells fruity/candy at 32 days and lookin' good.

 

[Barrelhse]

Missing x AO at 45 days. Big round nugs, but overall not a big yield because of the distance in between nodes. Smells fruity sweet and sticky.
