So after lurking on this forum for a while, I finally decided to pick up some TGA gear. After looking into it a bit I decided to go with Kaboom just purely out of preference to sativa.
I popped 4 seeds and got all 4 in under 36 hours. I did have one anomaly with one seed, I ended up getting a double sprout.
Here are the 4 at ~2 weeks after sprout
After reading up on nugbuckets AoS grow and showing the way to mainline I decided to try that. Here they are @ 3 weeks from sprout topped and set up for four.
I decided to leave one not mainlined just because I thought it looked so pretty the way that it was, I didn't want to mess with it. they were vegged for couple more weeks and then transplanted into 7 gallon fabric pots and topped for 8 as described in the mainlining thread.
roughly 4 weeks into veg
so the non mainlined plant in the background of that shot is about 15 inches tall. I have height constraints to work with and I needed to know how much this strain is going to stretch. the TGAgenetics website says to expect about a 3x stretch off of this plant, and being that it is mostly sativa I figured I would throw it into flower sooner than the others, and sooner than I would normally flower so that I can gauge the stretch that will occur with the other plants. And that brings us today the beginning of week six of veg for the mainlined plants and day 4 of flower for the non mainlined plant.
First the "test" flowerer she's at roughly 3 days into flowering already throwing a couple pistils and gained 4 inches of height in her 3 days in the flowering tent.
She now stands at 19 inches, I'm hoping that she gets to at least 45" not sure if she will really stretch her 3x but that's why she's in there now, so I can guestimate what the others will do.
and that brings me to my three mainlined plants still vegging now at the beginning of week 6 and about 1.5 weeks from being topped and trained for 8 tops. They stand 10 inches tall and are just awesome. My kaboom #3(the front right) is without a doubt the most uniform grower. the other two are just not quite as symmetrical, but this is my first time with this technique and I hope to do better with it next time.
So, there they are. Hopefully I don't fuck shit up from this point on, because I love the look of these plants and I hope to find a worthwhile plant in one of these 4.
