Okay... not a lot of pics here I'm afraid but there is a lot of stuff going on here...

Measuring in at 3.5 oz dry and have had about a half ounce already, so 4 oz from one plant is fuckin awesome! :D and still another to go!
Fruit punch I'll give another few days just to make sure she's cooked but she looks ready now. I reckon another 4 Oz from the FP too, but I'll have to see, it's very hard to gauge as she grows different to the other strains.

Smokes real nice now too. Swells up when it's crushed just like I like it to.Very fruity smell and a very hashishy taste. The buzz is cerebral and hard and comes on very slowly. The 'tamed' smoker would easily have a whitey on this stuff lol
Bag appeal is okay. Largish nugs, not too resiny but quite fluffy on the outside, dense on the inside. I've moved the smaller stragglier buds to the side as with the rotten bits, they together weigh 14g so I guess that's my bit haha the rotted bits look awful and brown. Just super lucky I pulled her out before it spread further...

Doesn't look like 3.5, but I guess it's cos of the larger colas at the back. It's really dry right now but I'm leaving it to go proper crispy before jarring it. I've made the mistake of jarring far too early in past grows and getting a right damp stinky smell to the weed that don't go away.
Also this time I'm gonna put it in sandwich bags inside the jar. I hate the smell of reused weed jars... yuk smells rotten!

Anyway, I'll try and get better pics of Fruit Punch in a few days. Enjoy peeps!
What strain am I looking at here? How fruity are we talking here?

Just pulled down the Cheese after a day of hanging, at 28g spot on LoL and a noice dollop of finger hash from the pruning which I'm already high on lol
Will get some pics of it for final weigh in, in a few days. I reckon she's still got another 10g's to drop :(

So yeah, I popped a few Herbie freebie seeds in the propo (now DWC), Sleestack x Skunk #1 is the cross and they're regs too.
My Caramelo cuts haven't tapped out yet but they are definitely growing, so I'm guessing DWC must be doing something right, I'll get some pics up of that too once the seeds have popped proper.

Another option...
I found a Budziller seed in my crusher! Somehow it escaped the crushing unscathed.
Should I, or shouldn't I...
Would it be reg, or fem? It's self polinated so I don't even know lol it's also a tad light in colour so it may not even germ. I may end up flowering a mutant if I go ahead and germ it!
Perhaps it would even be considered rude, to not germ it... The last remnant of a crop that's served me well for 6 months... I rather think I should!

Budziller. k gonna add that to the list. =)
Good call mate! :)
I really found it quite dull a smoke to begin with, because I been smoking some heavy shit and I kinda like a different buzz. But I gave a bit to me mate (also a heavy smoker) and he couldn't give it enough praise, as with my buyers and he actually wanted to buy it from me haha.
So ultimately, although I'm not keen on it myself, everyone seems to love it. So it's deffo a commercially viable strain with lots of bag appeal and a heavy buzz that locks you down ;)

Those Fruit Punch pictures look great. The name sounds delicious too.

I dunno, maybe it's because I'm a girl but I tend to zone in on the strains with the fruity names.
Me too!
Especially if the name has cheese in it too lol


Even MORE so if there is cake involved! hahaha
(((Strawberry Cheesecake)))

scrog is just the job mate .. id throw a second plant under it myself ..... fill it up quicker ;-) ...thats because i dont like waiting... i'd go for a simular length flower period and throw it to the HPS... your right about strain dependent it wouldn't matter if you grew it 10ft square... if the strain limit it 6oz then 6oz is all you'll get, thats providing its got ideal conditions.

recent harvest looks fair my friend, you know you onions from your cumbers fella :-)

BZ seed is planted :) fingers crossed...
Sleestack seeds are popping nicely.
Clones are still growing but no show for tap roots yet.
Caramelo appears to be pushing through nicely.

Now I have an empty box I wonder if I should put the Caramelo in under the HPS for a few weeks on veg as it'd be better than under the CFL 250. But I worry about the leccy bill lol
It's actually nice to have the bulb off for a little while so I can relax and not feel pressured to go outside every evening to chk on things. Opinions?

The seeds, I'm so far convinced, I'm gonna flower them as soon as they show some jaggers. I may keep one or two for vegging out for the next cycle, just in case something happens with the new seeds.

options are ..... keep vegging under cfl ... or hps, ... is more space in the veg cabinet a must? or could you cope with bringing the seedlings on beside the scrog until space becomes an issue then throw the scrog into flower/final veg-flower ... that way you not only save on the power bill .. you keep your heat signiture down keeping you safe from the nosey ****'s with the helicopters for a few weeks

but on the other hand put it in the flower room with a brand new MH bulb on 18/6 and watch that plant invade every inch of screen rapid!

its mostly relative, as its all a count down to 12/12.... it just depends on how quick you want to get there?

Wel my situation now, sister in law is coming to stay for a week.
so propo's gone outside, hidden in the veg box. Im gonna leave caramelo in there at least this week and hopefully longer. Temps seem pretty good in there right now and seeds are growing so alls good :) still no joy from BZ but its still early dayz

This week of spending lees time in the shed will probably do me good anyways - watching them less might make them grow faster lol

i tried the only look when i water trick ... i was getting 4 days between feeds, and it really does work ... you can see a visable change by doing so, the problem i found was i thought i watered them one monday .... and it turned out it must have been a day or two before .... when i opened the cabinet i found three plants that had wilted so bad they looked like snot!, i bought them back with a loss of quite a few leaves, they yeilded well but i knew that little bit of neglect would have set them back and they could have been a little bit better.

hope the visit goes well for you all mate, seeya on the flip side i guess :-)

Order made! :)

Soon to be on the menu;
Strawberry Cheesecake - wooo!
Blueberry Cheese
Bubble Cheese
Exodus Cheese
Liberty Haze

Gone Cheese mad? lmao!
I'm either gonna ditch the ones I have in place for newer fresher cheesier seedlings, or carry them on in tiny pots... not sure it's worth it as the yield will be pretty shitty and I'll need the Cheese space...

Freebies look kinda nice too, Royal Queens Critical and Some other fruity fem thing plus a bunch more Sleestack regs. Looking forward to seeing what other fem freebies they're gonna chuck me for my discrepancies last time :)

{Troutie} Want some babies?

Caramelo is doing vey nice, filling out the screen nicely. Been a bit lazy with the pics, cos lets face it, a vegging scrog never really looks that different until it starts flowering...
But I'll get one or two up soon. Deffo when I pot her up in a week or so. I think when I do that, I'm gonna throw her in the box and veg her out with the HPS for two-ish weeks before switching - this crop I wanna see some BEEF cola's!

watch out for too much!! size killed me this last grow...no room in the freezer for food...no room in my pantry due to canning jar's overflowing!!DID NOT WANT THAT MUCH AT ONCE!!!had kidney stoner over to see the 2.3lb's of cola's but he was impressed with the 1.2lb's of popcorn bud's!! so sent him home with a nice sack of herb to keeep him going till his harvest of my purple haze and the lsd plant's i gave him then his will come in a week later!Warning I lost 14 large cola's due to brown mold due to densisty of bud's..will water hash this and sugar leaves...I will never do this much at once!!It took two of us 4 1/2 hour's just to cut and trim 5 plant's!!started getting sloppy and a lot of big bud's ended up in the hash pile!! You don't care with a table overflowing with cola's..was overwhelming and not enjoyable at all! We filled the 22 shoe boxe's I havd and only had finished 3 plant's!! was way more than planned...planned 8-9 oz's per plant not 16-22 which is the dryed weight of the largest...2 cooking tin's 14" dia and 12 two quart canning jar's..ran out of everything and had to use small trash can's for a few day's just to hold over as my drying rack which was 8X8X8 was way too small to hang the bud's..almost dry now still 67% RH but most is in the freezer now. watch out for the beef!!!!jack quit manacuring after six hour's will trim the other's after cured..

Your suppose to use Metal Halide for vegetation stage, then use High Pressure Sodium for flowering stage. You should also set you mesh to the height you wish. And when the plant reaches it, thats when you start Scrogging.

Thanks Jazza. I kinda know how it supposed to be done, my only options are cfl or hps and im gonna need that cfl soon for baby vegging.
so its either gonna get flowered straight (its bi g enough) or the hps is gonna veg it for two weeks before switch to fill the creen a little more.
(is already the height i want, jaza)
