Total Noob using teas and I am a believer

[GandalfdaGreen]

Speaking of TGA ... up late trimming some Cheesequake. This was kind of a water-only run, and despite a bit of an early fade it turned out quite nice. This plant got a couple ACT's in veg and early flower, but aside from that it was just H2O. I'm curious to smoke this and compare it to the coconut water/aloe/Ful-Power/Pro-tekt regiment plants. It looks comparable. I'm thinking that if your soil is properly amended and inoculated, not much else *needs* to be done .... but tinkering with shit is always fun.

Looks really sticky. i bet if you touch that your fingers stick together like crazy. Nice work. Tinkering is fun. It keeps things fresh. The buds I posted above are very much TGA's DP x Q dominant buds. Casey Jones mom and DPQ dad. Grapey.

My pollination of the Sun Maiden by the Daybreaker has been a success. I see beans growing only where I brushed. I think there are some serious genetics in this cross. Lots of Chemdawg with Grape Stomper and Joseph OG too. I haven't heard of any testers of this. I would expect something to show up that tastes like sour grapes. Only this time the Grape is Gage's version.

Next up is OB Ripper, Sun Maiden, LA Haze crosses. I am going to cross my best Kali Mist female with all of those. I am going to be worse than Willy Jack.

Yes. This is awesome to read bro! What a day for you mate, some bad news and some good. I am very excited for you about your breeding project!!!! Where do I sign up as your first tester?

Pics of my girls coming up to 1 month of flower

For lack of better name and organization this is #2


and secondly #1 (maybe lazy and unorganized)


and last but not least, but not doing too great... #3 (got that one in order!)

Some dying leaves on #3

Check the ph of the feeding mixture. I know it said not to. How often are you watering?

 

[Illegal Wonder]

Every 4 days, the camping trip kinda messed me up, but watering is back on sched

I ph'd to 6.5 last watering and feeding

 

[GandalfdaGreen]

Let's see what people think. Hang in there. It's N and P involved. I suggest upping your N and P. I know the water has always been pure. ph 7. I know your mix is Pro Mix with ewc added. I would like to see what happens when you up things some more. Didn't st0w do this when he used the G.O. line?

I'm not sure who it was but I remember reading someones post about using over the recommended dose on the Go Box

Get in line! (j/k)

Yes, IW. I used the GO lineup and had similar necrosis/fade on some leaves during my first couple runs. On the subsequent runs using GO I upped my biothrive bloom from the recommended 10 ml per gallon, to 15 ml per gallon and I used the biothrive grow through week 4 of flower at 5 ml per gallon. I also introduced some foliar feeding with pro-tekt and aloe juice (you have to apply immediately as the aloe coagulates a bit with the Pro-tekt). This seemed to do the trick. I wish I would have changed one variable at a time though so I could tell you specifically what helped the most, but I can't help myself from messing with several things at once.

edit: This was with happy frog soil BTW

The buds look nice. I love those long white pistils. No matter what the leaves end up looking like you will be getting some really nice smoke. How are the Heri clones doing?

Smoke report on the first of the Engineers' Dream. I smoked the sample when it was just dry enough. Tastes like grape fuel. Sweet. The high is top shelf. I lost 5 hours. The high was strong. I endorse this strain. I am keeping this for as long as she will have me. Pure dank. Thank you DST and Mr. West for such a great strain.

Were those popcorn buds a couple pages back what you're talking about here? Looks frosty!

 

[GandalfdaGreen]

Yeah. It is as nice as it gets. It is very clear. Up for a purple strain. Post #558.

Nice! Those sure are pretty buds!

Out of curiosity, what kind of camera are you using to take those pics? You get some amazing shots. I need to get off my wallet and buy a good camera. The iphone just doesn't compare.

 

[GandalfdaGreen]

Sorry to post that it was Hemlock. It was really Mr. West. I think the strain is still on sale at Breeders Boutique.

I gotta go back further and further everyday cause I miss ALOT if I don't obviously!

I took a couple pics of my dried, and curing Blue O.G. flowers. I have to say I'm loving her scents more, and more as she dries. A very lovely lady, and I received a less than desirable pheno I think. The other 5 seeds I'll be taking careful note of, and selecting a mother for keeping around for a couple runs.


The last pic is of something I wouldn't even spend time trimming, but the person who trimmed this thought otherwise i guess. I just included it to show you guys how frosty this plant was everywhere. the breeding project you've been working on seems to be coming to fruition. I think there is so much potential there man, there is gonna be a couple keepers in there so keep the ever vigil eye out for super dankness. Everybody has so much going on as of late, good to hear of all the success. Have a blessed day everyone. Peace and Love.

It is a cannon eos 7d. I have so much to learn with it. I also use a samsung 16.1 mp point and shoot that kicks ass.

Myco...those are some dank pictures bro. I love the frost on them. I think it's a pretty nice pheno to toss that frost around. I like the high too. I really like the looks of those buds. I can't wait to see an oil run with these. I am really interested to see what 5 beans would show.

Fall is in the air here. I have heard it will be snowing tomorrow morning in Northern Quebec. Thank the lord.

You're probably not too far from there, eh? If you ever get a chance to go to Quebec City it's a great place to take the wife. Very Parisian feel to it with outdoor cafes and cobblestone streets. I met a hot lil french poodle up there during the NHL draft and she taught young, naive st0w a thing or two.
