Gud I love those two cuts more than any other I've ever had. Everything about the way they grow.. how they explode in Veg, root fast, and don't stretch much is great. The yields are fantastic too of course or they wouldm't both be considered A+ strains to me but even more than that, the aroma and smell of both finished product is fantastic.
The SpaceDawg doesn't really show you how special she really is tho until its about 60 days in and it's finally ready. The aroma changes that last week and she starts to show you how she really smells. It goes from sweet and fruity to citrus zing funk. Those calyx's get so swollen they look like they're ready to burst at 60 days. The speedy uppy energetic high I get from her is amazing. A favorite, similar to Apollo actually but better potency and longer lasting. I never want to lose this girl.
Space Princess, once disturbed or moved around in the room will leave this heavy candy essence that dwells for long periods. To me it was best compared to Stride berrymint gum. It's like a minty blue candy that makes you want to just stick your head in the jar after the chop. Yields just as good if not better than my Spacedawg. I think I might like her more. She requires a little more TLC and likes her Nitrogen and Magnesium in flower, she is still pretty easy to grow but requires a little more effort than the Spacedawg but it's well worth it. She swells up nice and fat. She gives a soaring high as well. But leaves me a little numb after I smoke a couple bowls. I think it's unfortuante the breeder only had 10 or so packs ever released. It may be what I consider to be the best strain I've ever grown. Sometimes I wonder why I even do seed runs and don't just grow a ton of Space Princess and Space Dawg. I love both so much.

The only strain that comes close to being as good is Chernobyl. That strain is wicked fucking dank. I am trying to get her back. Have a couple going now, but a pack on the way. It's like a lime sledgehammer hitting you over the head its so good. Wrecks me but no paranoia like I get with Jack the Ripper. The Chernobyl I had wasn't a great yielder and I hope to find a winner. That was my only complaint. I did however grow it once time and topped it multiple times managing yo pull 3ozs off one plant that previously only yielded an ounce. I picked up some Timewreck beans too. The similar father makes me wonder if the TimeWreck will carry on the same attributes as Chernobyl but have better yield thanks to the Vortex mom. I will grow them both together soon. I just have this feeling, that no matter what I do if I grow them both together, there's going to be some killer keepers to be had.

that's funny what you say about vortex.
like a typical TGA computer problem in my lab, shit made only susan b anthony nugz on popsicle sticks.

however, im inclined to think 95% of these dudes who passed me cuts (not no mo' though , only pro people) couldnt pheno hunt an elite clone clone given to them by a friend.

i know you know i know... we have some garden skill cause SP she drinks N in flower ! every week bitch demands it.

as for SP in SOG, the way i roll, its like wasted space when a plant doesnt stretch.
i need to fill up the space between the light and tray with only .6 square meter.
flat gardening (horizontal) , lights hung aircooled like normal, but vert principals.
my average as calculated today is 1.1g per watt. not bad. & work yet to do.

i got a SP clone for veg ;-) she aint gone.
not yet anyway. she on the toss list.
SD stays.

aroma dont play here, broken noses make it all smell good.

i cut down my PM problem mother. & in my game cutting down a known performer... wow sad.
too much plant material vs. PM = eventually comes back. got cuts so i'll start over reboot.

i tell you what : i dip every cut twice... i cut from a mom into a dip bucket... i root & dip again before 12/12.
working good so far. i found more PM today. its on the run but holding on to existence.
its a battle but not for my nugz ;-) shit cant even get past a leaf tip ;-)

mid 40s humidity bro! also a very powerful tool. i need a backup dehuey as my last equip score.
soon.

also, i experimented today with a quart of water & 10ml neem & 5ml fungicide & one drop soap. idiot savant action? only this week will tell. lol.

& i bought a pro (ebay, 1000mg hour) ionizer today cause i think it twarts (tiny bit, i want to think more but i cant prove it yet) PM too. the one i use now is old school for your room type shit. not good enough.

thank jebus for spacedawg , you guys be seening her bunches.
she my new bottom bitch ! along with alphadawg.
my clients gonna jizz themselves yes they will.

Eagle 20 application part fuckin two commenced on 4/25.. bumped it up to 5ml per gal. Not a trace of PM for weeks now. Hells fuckin yea.
Today was Neem bath day. Before I gave the good ol 2tsp Einstein Oil/per quart of warm water power shower I scrubbed the floors with a solution of bleach, pinesol, and water. Got everything nice and sopping disinfectant wet.. kill those spores.... then I gave the Neem ritual. I also pulled out the ozone generator, removed the timer, and placed the aim of the O3 output towards the main grow area. Yanked my 50pint dehumidifier out towards the center of the room and turned the fan on high. Now I'm gonna let everything sit for a few hours, plants all pulled aside out of the light.. but lights still on. Killin it tho.

The garden has never looked better. Everything's green and lush. I've seen some exponential growth in the past couple weeks. My strain list is bomb and I'm very satisfied with this run so far. I have been experimenting with the Lucas method using General Hydroponics Flora series at 60% since transplanting in my Ocean Forest soil mix and the gals are loving it.

This is what I'm currently working with-

proven cuts
bodhiseeds - apollo 11 genius pheno (genius x grimm c99f3)
heaven scent - space princess (sputnik 1 x grimm c99)
tga subcool seeds - space dawg (snowdawg x spacequeen)
alphakronik genes - jackpot royale (lasvegas purple kush x spacequeen)
alphakronik genes - bandana (707 headband x snowdawg bx)
dankhouse - strawberry alien kush (strawberry cough x alien kush)


from seed
bodhiseeds - apollo 13 gorilla arm pheno x apollo 11 genius pheno (self explanatory)
bodhiseeds - cali yo (aeric 77 california orange x yo mama)
tga subcool seeds - chernobyl (trinity trainwreck x jack the ripper) <---DANK
alphakronik genes - eisbaer (the white x snowdawgbx)
alphakronik genes - snowdawg bx (snowdawg x spacedawg)
pisces genetics - vics high (killer queen x spacequeen)

Seeds also recently acquired and or considering for next run-
rare dankness - venom og
tga subcool seeds- qrazy train
tga subcool seeds- qush
tga subcool seeds- chernobyl
topdawg- tres stardawg
bodhiseeds- fantasy island
monk seeds- c99 bro grimm f4

Still playing with the idea of what to pop next. I always start a batch under CFLS when I am about mid flower in whatever run I'm finishing up. I'll prolly cull some of the cuts and make room for new keepers. There's gotta be some winners waiting to present themselves any time now. Finding those gems and the pheno witch hunt is what drives me to wanna pop more seeds.

Was talking to Subcool about possibly doing a TGA test in the near future. We'll see.

tsup BM and BH?yu have some sweet arsenal,never done any of those selections..impressive grows always at Headquarters...yea i used to ph water ,damn things kept dryin up on me buyin new ones,i bot a good RO system, and jus went with it,havent see nothin any diff...Say BM do u use airation pots?

I'm using Smartpots now Raiderdude for a couple of the ladies. I like them alot. Plan on using alot more in the future.
I don't use RO, just regular Tap. There's chlorine here not chloramine in our water so I just let it sit out a few days before I use it.

Those look good dude, I almost got em myself cuz I like that those ones are square. But I wanted the handles and I can drive into the city here and buy the real deal "Smartpot" brand ones for like $3 each. 3gal

Better root mass = bigger buds.
A friend of mine on another board told me years ago he uses these and will never go back. We'll see.

I've been cheating using the Lucas Method. I still will include Botanicare's Sweet and this additive I am starting to like called Cytoplus. It comes in a resealable plastic bag.

cyto-plus.png


A combination of soluble seaweed extract from Norway, HumiSolve USA and seven
micronutrients required for plant growth. Applied as a foliar spray on fruit, flowers and
vegetables just prior to bloom or bud stage, it will enhance flowering and fruit set quality,
quantity and retention. On turf it provides greater nitrogen uptake resulting in a lush, dark
green color and a healthier root system from increased photosynthesis. Cytoplus can also be
applied to plants during the growing season to quickly correct micronutrient deficiencies
and improve overall plant health. Provides a large profile of essential and rare elements; as as
well as phytostimulants in small quantities. Cytoplus is a soluble, dry powdered concentrate
that can be used in a wide variety of applications including: dry broadcast for turf and farms,
hydroponic, irrigation, and hand watered applications. Excellent for foliar applications and
used in compost tea activation.

Been doing alot of research lately on soil conditioners mainly humic acid and bloom boosters. Here's a great link- What is the difference between humic acid and fulvic acid? & other FAQ

and

Humic Acid's Role in Improving Soil Quality and Plant Growth

The Real Dirt on Humic Substances

Humate And Seaweed Extracts

and General Hydroponics statement on what is organic or isn't organic? - "what is or is not "organic" is the subject of intense debate. In the United States, there are numerous definitions of "organic", many of which differ significantly. Each state has its own regulations for labeling produce as "organic". Additionally, there are 36 non-governmental organizations, which can "certify" produce as organic. Now only crops grown from unrefined minerals are recognized as "organic". The trouble is unrefined minerals do not dissolve well for hydroponic use and some of these unrefined minerals contain quantities of impurities, some of which are toxic to plants. For that reason, FloraBloom, FloraGro, and FloraMicro are made from high quality refined minerals. This ensures high quality crop production, but prevents the crop from being considered "organic"."

I am hoping to see good results from conditioning the soil and adding aeration with these new pots. The Veg cycle this round has gone quite well so far.
This Lucas Experimentso far has gone well, I plan only to deviate with the Humic and Sweet treatments added as supplements, possibly pick up some kool bloom liquid as well. I am liking what I see so far tho.

KushSourSmoker I run both. Most of my cuts came from seeds I grew out searching for what I felt was a keeper phenotype.
I rarely accept clones from anyone unless I know the grower pretty well and trust their plant is problem free. I do not want my garden to be susceptible to other peoples problems. I have alot of friends from various communities around the US and could probably get my hands on nearly anything if I tried. But from my experience growing plants out and finding those keepers isn't very difficult if you're starting out with good genes in the first place. That and.. it's a hell of alot more fun. I live on the Eastcoast. As far from Cali as it gets.
