Fall climate is moderate, sep is hot, it can get a little rainy in oct/nov, but doesn't usually freeze until late december/january (NorCal sierra foothills)...luckily my sativa cross has dutch passion durban poison in it...it's one of the first to finish. Not sure what the dutch bred into it, but it's def not pure sativa...despite it's streeeetch.
Here is one pheno of my F1 (suuuper frosty, medium sized nugs, wonderful effect/smell). This was September 9th. I think I harvested first 1-2 weeks of Oct. Plant was small because I sprouted late to do some pheno hunting in a small space. Some cupping from 100+ highs in early sep.
Here are some trichs after 6 month cure...seriously, if anybody is in NorCal, I'd love to have some real connoisseurs test this out.
Good lookin out, I think I'm going back to the paper towel method. I had plenty success with the water in a cup, but I think its too prone to anaerobic spoilage. Almost all seeds popped in 24-48h, but I smelled some funk by 72h on a few seeds i let go. I might revisit the water in a cup with some aeration though...
Growing in LA County. Something knocked a branch off of my Tahoe plant a couple nights ago. Might have been the wind. But this particular plant was kind of the runt of the litter. I got it as a clone and it was always kind of stunted compared to the others I planted.
Yeah, wind has been crazy up north last week or so...when did you plant those OGs? Are those flowers from sexing? Hope those reveg quick...
oh, ok, are you in southern hemisphere or doing dep? I'm trying to prevent mine from even thinking about flowering right now.
I think your days are shorter than mine right now? I don’t think I’d be able to get much of anything doing that up here, my buddy fucked up and put out several different strains throughout March and April and they all began to flower, but stunted and then revegged. Maybe it’s diff in SoCal...
I give my seeds a half hour soak in H202, then right into the soil. Works pretty good.
Nice, that's a great recommendation. Ive done that with seeds (H2O2 soak, rinse, dry) from a mother that got some mildew...seeds ended up with excellent viability...untreated seeds rotted.
I've had some rot issues myself. I swish everything in a H2O2 wash at harvest time.
Nice, reminds me of the germ bomb, give the seed everything it’s SUPPOSED to have, but might need if it’s old or resource limited.
