Alien Bubba #1

20160430_175256.jpg

Decided to cull AB #2 today. The pods were full blown developed already, but I made the decision that if I am going to keep a male then I wanted to take the one that was stable from the beginning. Granted AB #2 seemed to grow out of it a bit, but there were definitive mutant properties to its growth structure. Leaf rub on #2 wasn't as pungeant and skunky as AB #1 either.

AB #1 still doesn't seem to be showing signs of being male, but I'm not convinced it's female either for that matter. It's in that stage where it could go either way. Stalk is VERY hardy and it has strong side branching. Really hope its a female.

More CFDC gear and its BB gear buddies. The Sweet N Sour Cookies is looking REALLY good. I <3 the way nothing's looking full-blown sativa. I dont really have the space or the timeframe to work with em unfortunately :/ I'm a huge fan of heavy indicas and the way they grow although I've had some really nice hybrids as well that performed great if I could keep their shape/structure under control.

For sure man. The youngins have made awesome progress in the last week. Humidity here has been through the roof as well with storms and whatnot so that helps lol. Kinda weird....they're just growing like weeds I dont understand it :P

If AB#1 isn't a fem I guess I'm just gonna have to get somemore of em and try again ;) Not gonna let that slow down this train :D It's hard to not be excited when I'm really looking forward to EVERY SINGLE PLANT that I have going right now. Almost to the point where I can start to invest somemore in the OP. New veg light and another cab for males is coming soon. Super busy in this neck of the woods, but I'm doin what I can. I'll be in a WHOLE lot better place financially in another 6 wks or so as well.

5 days from flip. Starting to show their lady parts.

Snagged a quick pic of the girls in the 4x4. I'm really liking the way the CM #1 is growing. CM #2 has extremely low bud-to-leaf ratio. Light penetration all the way through her. The CC is getting bushier. Starting to have that hybrid/sativa look to her like my original Cheese cut had. I did some pruning on all of them, but I'll continue to do so over the coming weeks although most of it will be on the CC. Cheerz all

Been hella busy :/ Working at 2 different places plus a full-time garden is alot of work. Watered a bit ago. Plants were a bit droopy and I knew they'd need watered. Everything got transplanted into 3g fabric pots. I do plan on taking proper pics/update tomorrow for the full lineup. AB will be going into flower. No signs of preflower yet, but I need to find out whats up w it. Cheers all. Back to work ;)

So the girls were thirsty yesteday and I found them kinda droopy. They have all since recovered beautifully. The AB stalk is almost as big around as my pinky. Very hardy. Straight skunk leaf rubs. I havent noticed anymore growth on the "possibly balls" yet. Throwing it into flower tomorrow. Everything got transplanted into 3g Root Pouches. Long overdue I know, but this issue will never happen again as I have 13 more of them bitches laying around now lol.

So for a 3x3 I think I did pretty well. Atm I have 12 in there but i'm sure I could squeeze in 14. I absolutely love the way the 3g pots fit. Pretty sure ima be rocking those from here on out. Tried to label the plants in the pics. Sweet N Sour is looking really good. Still one of the more dominant growing strains atm. Slight nitrogen deficiency, but the 50/50 super soil/base mix that they're in oughtta kick things up a notch. Watered a bit to get everything cooking along. Super soil was a bit moist already so yea....so far so good. Now I can focus on saving to build a new COB veg light =)

@eastcoastmo The ducks finally landed amigo!! =) I'm all smiles man! Thank you very much! Package was in nice condition. No mishandling thank gawd. I know @skunkwreck had a few issues with his falling out or something. I gotta say this is a very unique and clever technique. I wasn't expecting half a dozen choices of so much FIRE! Cant wait to try them out! Ny info you can forward my way about the genetic rundown/tips/etc feel free to post away. You're now on my list to "pay-it-forward" homie. Wont forget ya ;)

So the last Alien Bubba I have is a male. I have decided to go ahead and flower it out though for my first attempt at pollen collection. The structure is spot on with what I like I grow and I have no doubts that if this one was a female she'd be a producer. Very funky skunky leaf rub. Good nodal spacing and overall it's been healthy from start to finish thusfar.

As far as CFDC gear goes I still have 2 Sweet N Sour Cookies and I have intentions on popping some Candy Diesel x 24K next round. I have to wait to cycle the tents, however once I do that'll for sure give the lowdown on at least a dozen strains I have going. Pheno hunts are always an adventure in themselves, but the time spent is irreplaceable along with the experience that comes along with it.

Keep it green all! Will continue to update with the pollen collection over the next 2-3 wks
