N.Y.C. Topdawg grow and more to come.

Alright time for a new thread with some new genetics and why not from my hometown and current residing place on the east coast New York City. Chose to go with Topdawg been hearing a lot of good about his genetics and since I'm in Nyc and I know what's going around I figure I can see what's up with these and probably keep these around.

Started off with a pack of stardawgs but had a bad germ rate only 5 germinated but 4 grew into seedlings so hopefully I get a couple keepers and a pair to f2 with so all is not lost.

The setup-
Veg- T5 setup in a 2x 4 tent as of right now. But I have a cfl fixture that I plan on getting a big bulb for soon.(250 or 300 watt).
Plants are in 16oz party cups full of coco/perlite mix
Flower-600 watt hps +cooltube in a 4x4x7 tent
Nutrients- advanced nutrients 3 part, botanicare hydroplex,cal mag+, silica pro tek t.

I will be adding more topdawg gear to the grow as time goes on as well as some freebies and ufos that I just add to fill space. This grow will be all coco handfed/passive hydro. Here are some pics of the stardawgs now. I have to look back and find out the date on whe they started but they are looking great so far the 5 started

Then the 4 that made it

As they grow


And them now


Looking forward to popping both of these when space clears up a bit over the next couple of days.
.

Alright all thanks for looking ill update more as they progress.
 
Just put the pack of white dawg in water along with
1x og kush #18
1xbuddha tahoe og

I think I might add another fem or 2 to this lineup. Leaning towards the Socal masterkush s1's.

@ fresh thanks for joining in this is just getting sarted;)
 
Transplanted the 4 stardawgs into 1 gallon grow bags of coco. They are vegging slow but they are looking pretty. Already getting a skunky smell in veg.
.
I'm going to veg them for a couple more weeks take cuts then flower.

On the new seeds
So far what's cracked
Buddha tahoe 1/1 cracked and planted
Og kush #18 1/1 cracked and planted
Whitedawgs 3/13 so far opend up and showed tails I placed them in a paper towel and got them on top of my flouro hood for heat.

the Star Dawgs is looking super healthy and definitely looking like they're growing at a snails pace. gl on the White Dawgs to, i hope you have better germ rates with them than you had with the Star Dawgs.
 
Well they been in 1 gallons going on 6 days now and they are growing good.


So far out of the whitedawgs that did germinate 6/13 I got 3 sprouts so far. I'm sure the other 3 will come up but as for the other 7 seeds still in a paper towel I'm writing thoe off as dead!
I got sprouts out of the same seeds I'm waiting to germinate ? Yeah they are done. I'm going to let them veg out a bit and see what's what then ill be popping the tres sister.
 
damn that sucks. fuck it, i guess it's no choice but to move on.
I still got them there hoping for something but yeah its looking like that move on to the next. I was hoping after the stardawg experience I would get the whole pack to pop but nah not the case. Same as the stardawgs germ rate. Now I don't know what's up but I'm guessing these beans were not stored right or they are just aging faster than mostt seeds. Idk.

yeah, that's what i am starting to think. don't know who part it falls on but it's crazy how people are only having issues with his last restock, so you know who it truly falls on.
 
Alright so far I have 3 suspected males. I'm pretty sure they are males because I'm getting what looks like a ball on each 1 of the 3 so I'm going to place these 3 in 12/12 and take a cutting off the best male in my eyes. I still have 1 that that has not showed anything yet so I'm hoping that shows pistils. Well some shitty pics with my phone for now onces they start showing the balls ill take withe cam and post some better shots.

Stardawg#1

Stardawg#2

Stardawg#3
.

So yeah these will go into 12/12 and see for sure if they are male. After they are confirmed I'm going to pop the whole pack of tres sisters after the bad germ rate with the white dawgs I'm hoping I get something good out of another pack. With the tres sisters I'm also going to pop some beans.
 
Looking like I went 4/4 males with the stardawgs. Going to try and germinate the whole pack of tres sister tonight along with some others still undecided right now but I'm going to add something else for sure.
 
All 13 tre sisters germinated and were put in rapid rooters and dome along with the tre sis I also germinated a fem pack of 818 headband aka sour og all 6 of those shot tails as well and were put in rapid rooters as well.

Since all the stardawgs were male I'm going to flower the best male out and collect pollen from it. Store it and save it for the best females I get out of the newly planted seeds.
 
good shit, i was just looking at those tre sisters 2 nights ago. sounds like some fire!good luck! ill be lurking...:fire:
Yeah not really much on her so it will be exciting to see what comes esp since the whole pack looks to sprout. All are up except maybe 2 tre sisters and 1 sour og but I'm sure later they will be up.

Thanks for joining in and ill update with pics soon.
 
Your garden is looking great. I just harvested a Buddha Tahoe OG. Nice yielder with super dense round nugs. Probably the most dense I've ever grown. Very very sticky throughout the bud. Potent, but a little boring flavor-wise.

yeah i saw that earlier that grow was pretty Nice undsr led right. Thanks for stopping by and for the kind words.

with the 4/4 males, a year ago i woulda been pissed. now i want a few good men, lol
Yeah im going to flower em out and save pollen. Waiting to see how my boy f/m ratio come out might be able to make f2s
 
Here is a group shot of the 4 males.


1 is shooting the ball sacks quicker than the rest. I'm gonna have to start doing some evaluating to see which and how many males I will keeep pollen from. The smell is getting very skunky now but I still smell a bit of green tea lol.

The seedlings are all up 13/13 tre sis and 6/6 sour og aka 818 headband. Only 3 of the white dawgs look to be progressing but all were stunt for some reason. I'm guessing my mix was too damp. The 3 that do look better I put them in seed starter mix. Looking at the tap was brown so I'm guessing I fucked those up.
