The AltarNational Garden

CJxGM's:











C99's:





Diesel:

The frost! Wow. So yummy. :0)

That last one is insane....

YES! The reason I am keeping Diesel around (and the reason I revegged that very plant!) is because it TRICHS OUT LIKE CRAZY. I couldn't BELIEVE how blingy it came in when I did that first clone... heh.

Thanks for the good words JD

Yeah, thats a keeper!

Transplanted C99's, a few diesels, and some clones that are supposedly blueberry haze if he guessed right. Also one CBH, supposedly. Again, not sure if labeled correctly. Those are all under T5's in 2 gal's now in the veg chamber. I had to set up the CFL bulbs again for the rest of the clones because there's no room left under the T5, heh. But they only have to suffer like that until I chop the C99's next week, then I will pull the other T5 for now and probably get some more transplanting done.

Yeah I got some clones going too to hold onto her... I am thinking it would be a good idea to do a straight-diesel run soon! But then again that blueberry haze my buddy gave me to sample was pretty awesome. Haha. I am addicted to VARIETY more than anything. That's why I like the idea of setting up multiple scrogs under different lights and such. Also considering just getting the HID lighting and getting going on the next round... haha... this is what I get for taking all those clones, lol.

My count was a little off, day 50 was actually today. They're in the dark until tomorrow, then they'll chill in relatively low light for the day until I am ready to cut. Gotta figure out where I'm hanging everything still. Ordered some 62% boveda packs to work as insurance on the curing this time.

C99, 50 days:

Za-za-za-ZING.

Now to figure out where to hang for the dry...

Used that same clothes storage tent thing again... this time I took out like 4 levels of it, hung chains, and bars across the chains to hang more hangers. Got one of those little "entreeair" doorway-corner-fans at the bottom pushing air in... a tapestry tacked across the front, leaving a 3-4" gap at the top to let the air back out. Holding steady at 55%, and I can feel the air moving out the top.

Got 5 exceedingly full hangers off the C99 side.

Looking so perfect! Best indoor I have seen in a long time!

How does it smell?

Thanks a lot Mo, appreciate the good words! That is some high praise!

I am still always blown away by the results a longer veg will produce tho... as much as I love quality, I'm also a sucker for yield, lol. It just gets my motor runnin' when I pull a huge crop of quality... it's like insurance, haha. (Wait, did I just say insurance gets my motor runnin'? haha.) One can only get so much off a plant that size... which is why there's 4 of course... hahaha. Looking forward to playing with it on the next round... same slot, 6 plants, 2 gal's, and gonna let the veg go until they reach the second 4 bulbs and then flip prolly... not going to top either, these things branch enough as it is.

Not to say I don't think this will be a good yield. It's just hard not to compare my self to the big dogs... my buds are great quality but I wanna see a plant full of beer cans, heh.

The smell is great... a little muted to my stuffy nose, but this pheno is grapefruit leaning for sure. I've heard they are sometimes more pineapple, sometimes more grapefruit.. this one is for sure grapefruit side... it is a really nice scent, hard to describe... sharp, but sweet. It smells ominous in a way, like you can almost smell the sativa high coming through in an "undead" kind of way, lol. Like it smells sweet and yet also... god, it's hard to describe... sort of reminds me of the taste of salvia... not the chlorophyll part of the taste obviously... but the part that makes you feel like you gon' trip balls, lol.

...that's my best attempt to describe it, lol. It's been a little while since I finished the last batch off so I have to rely on memory and my very stuffy nose, haha.

Actually, you know, someone posted in a thread on another forum something about there being a pheno that has both the pineapple and grapefruit smells and is more like mango as a result. I'd say that sounds pretty close to what I've got. Definitely a little "sickly sweet" like mango comes off to me.

After the success (and the impress!) we've both had with my clones, my buddy is interested in ordering himself some FMS C99 seeds too, so we'll hopefully start seeing some new phenos kicking around soon. I barely rescued this strain so I only have the one pheno now. I think I saw 2-3 different phenos in my first grow with multiple from seed. Wish I'd been more diligent about cloning then!

AMAZING CRYSTAL STRUCTURES!!

What a post. I am winded. LAMO! (ha ha)

Those antlers filled in so well.

Thanks for sharing bro!

JD

Thank you JD! Antlers, haha, I did not think of that... definitely antler-like with the way I curled everything toward the front, haha.

The saddest thing about this rig was that I had to cut up them antlers to get them out of the screen. Next time I am putting the plants on the light-side of the screen and just going to use twist ties or similar to attach to the screen as I go, rather than weaving through... that way I can take 'em down whole more easily. Weaving in a vscrog is not like weaving in a regular scrog at all! If you fuck up it's pretty damn hard to move a branch once it's grown up through. Completely different ballgame. Should have seen that comin! But I think the fastening method will solve it.

BTW... the smell on that CJxGM is really nice. I can't describe it yet... need to spend more time with it... but it's REALLY nice... i have a good feeling that the high will be really nice as well.

Yes the mango comes from the grapefruit side, it' leans more towards that pheno. I've had it as well, but the pineapple is the one you should be looking for

Yeah, that's what I was reading earlier, the pineapple is the stronger. I will definitely be seeking it if my buddy gets those seeds. But I get a pretty nice high off this pheno... I almost can't imagine how strong the pineapple would be, heh.

Gigs have you gotten all three in your efforts? Which pheno stretched more?

Decided to update the ole avatar with another A-shaped plant pic.
