Skunk mag is the shit.

I've got 2 Bog sourbubble females in my garden, I can't wait for the smoke, but I will probably not run the sourbubble again, too small and too long of a veg for me to even get a decent yield. Although I do have 2 pheno's of the sour bubble and one is lanky and one looks like the one that everybody is looking for, prehistoric looking, and squat. So we will see I guess, I did pick up Querkle and Chernobyl, but my package still looks to be in jamaica, ny still

if you want to collect pollen, just collect it in multiple paper envelopes and put them in the freezer. once you defrost pollen though, you can't re-freeze it.

i wonder what'll happen to my joey weed C99 pollen. i'll have to defrost it when i move & it's discontinued.

i tell you, i really miss my cervantes grow guide. it covered almost everything and i bet a lot has been added to it since the mid 80s. i'm sure that's the one that i got that info from. the other 2 guides i used to have maybe covered a dozen tips not in indoor marijuana horticulture between them.

Buy a cooler and fill it with ice, insert pollen envelope into said cooler.
Transport cooler to new living arrangement, remove pollen envelope and place in your new freezer.
Problem solved.

eh... sounds like too much trouble. i hopefully have at least a few viable back crosses to work with as i've only tried to pop the "schwag" from my "early mix" bag and have later harvested beans that look mature separated by mother to work with as well as 8 JW cinderella crosses with apollo 11 i'm eager to test. the only reason i liked the C99 was that it had a grape pheno instead of the "common" pineapple & floral ones from the original descriptions and wanted to marry it to short stuff's super cali haze which i've already done once and got a dozen beans out of. i wanted to use it to speed super cali up without wrecking it's delicious grape flavor or total lack of couchlock. i still have 2 C99 x blueberry beans too.

buying a cooler i'd only use once for pollen i was really only keeping because i could is a bit of a waste. besides, i expect to like cindy apollo better for being trippier & mellower.

i won't really have the space to do a bunch of breeding either anyways as i didn't find any better apartments than the little 2 bedroom i'll be putting a deposit on tomorrow and i already have 3 breeding sessions planned...
C99 x A11 spraying gear from my current stock
8 miles high spraying what will be left of my stock along with new stuff like jack's cleaner 2
&
C99 x super cali haze (or C99 x LSD plan B or maybe a TGA grape) spraying a bunch of fruity strains next fall and probably jacks cleaner 2 spraying everything next winter if it lives up to it's rep with a lot of testing under just a pair of 400 watters.

none of my breeding will be serious. i never tested my C99 males, i just picked the best looking short pheno one & used that & won't be doing any serious mother selection in the future, just tinkering for fun & i like making my gals happy as well as giving anyone i gift the chance to grow their own as i like seeded better than sinse.

that's how you undermine greed... make it free!

i collect about a tablespoon of pollen blueJ. i have little plastics jars, a sheet of black paper and tweezers...i put the black paper under the plant and pluck the pollen sacs with the tweezers...then i use the screen in my grinder to get all the pollen out. then i let it dry for a couple days and into the freezer it goes.

I hear very little about Seedsman seeds. Looking at them now and their WW is 33 bucks for 10 beans. Very reasonable and they have a large selection. Anyone have any Seedsman grows?

Since I am new to grow I have noticed some of my plants smell diff at diff times of the grow. Right now I have two fem Reserve Pravada RSK (really killer skunk) I am 4 weeks into flower and one smells just like Grape bubblegum. Is that normal for a skunk? It is also beefing up real well, tight nodes, looking real good.

Seedsman's Nemasis is far better than his widow. much alike GHS Himalayan gold

One to go with from seedsman @ the moment is. The Resinator, Sleestack X Skunk#1

The Narkush, is pretty crap to

 

[gudkarma]

my cut of houston shoreline... which is a classic road kill skunk ...smells far & away from nasty rotting flesh.

it smells like heaven coated candy.

i've personally seen a seedman northern lights grow & even pruned the plants.

surely, i have germ'd my share of indicas ...those seedsman NLs produced just a few fat leaved indica children to the majority which were very very sativa leaning.

plants were stretchy. & stacked okay. i saw them from germ to about week 3-4 (ish) of flower.

FAR cry from the NL i know & love & i never got in to see the last weeks of flower.

i hear his NL goes 9 to 10 to sometimes 11 weeks. <--- all laughable

what i saw looked to have another 6 weeks easy... so 9 to 10 week NL? nope. not possible.

7 to 8 and done.

seedsman has something out there that's bomb, people just need to run the gear & report.

i like cheap beans for sure, i have everything out there under $30, BUT im not a huge fan of his beans.

for the $, delicious has provided me with a keeper NLB & i have sweet seeds "double white" that is simply SICK, nasty, and fu*king incredible for SOG. you just need to be able to work with only 3 seeds & opt for fems.

i'd rather get 3 seeds of anything to 10 of seedsman's best.

for the $ too, breeder's choice (sannie) has mad fat shit.

 

[boneheadbob]

Thanks GK, Im still looking and learning. I have three Cr, three ko kush and two Choco mix going with Anestishia? and killing fields still unopened. I could stay with Sannies and be happy, ms universe, caramel candy, eskos new stuff coming, etc.

But Im getting that itch, the one that makes you buy more beans then you will ever pop. Hemp Depot has some new stuff, good prices on some, not so good on others.

They sell Lepruchans lolypop. It sounds exquisite,mmmm,mmmmm

CZ has better prices for Lep but no Lolypop

5 fem seeds for 46.00 sounds great and this strain comes highly recomended

Heres the other one http://www.cannabis-seeds-bank.co.uk/sweet-seeds-double-white-feminized/prod_1594.html

Sweet seeds has a few interesting strains. Never noticed them before

 

[gudkarma]

^ i got mine cheaper as i grabbed 3 packs (3 seed in vial). NLB is a good strain. i have three distinct phenos and its seems too wierd to be in one vial. nl leaning, bb leaning, & a 50/50 mix. i kept the first two & ditched the last. of the 1st two i'd opt for the NL leaning as it finishes fast, SOGs perfectly, with fair stretch, good node spacing, very tastey, very dank, and clones WAY easy by the dozens the other bb leaning im keeping too as it is easily AA on my F to AAA+ scale. stretchy & slower finish though offset by : very dank, super nice taste, nice spear head cola, plenty side nugs, & im getting about 18 to 20g (dry product) per plant in sog.

& sweet seeds gets some bomb reviews & wins awards broham.

carmello (i have) is a lab tested strain in the low 20% thc range... like 21.6 i think.

SAD and green poision are also highly rated (i have both). they breed a type of plant & make selections that just always seem to have SOG potential. and i run that graden style for the flip & for me... so "cheap" beans doesn't mean "cheap" herbs... or gud would "trash" it with super sonic quickness.

and double white (which is like a back cross of great white shark to white widow) speaks to me tons.

my advantage is i like spainish & grow forums too http://www.cannabiscafe.net/foros/forum.php

you can easily go to canna cafe & try the search engine for strains.

BlackJack (Sweet Seeds) Flower Day #61
before harvest here!!. Bud so frosty and done to perfection with ALL trichomes whole amber and after a 2 week cure this Bud/strain is a real knockout punch, had me drifting in & out of reality and I'm a pretty high tolerence smoker too!! Here's a few pic's I found from last year when I ran it...

For the price of 3 fem seeds it was a good buy imo.

From Tcvg at CZ

well... I just made sure I had a whole new batch of freebies to go out with my Shit...

I've been packaging up the 2010 Shit so it's ready to be sent in... and while I was sorting things out, I decided to mix the 3 phenos of the '78 Shitty Skunk beans together in order to hand them out as freebies...

...stupid me, I grabbed the wrong pack of 500+ beans I had of the Annie pheno of the '78 Skunk x Gorilla Grape... and dumped most of the beans into the pile of pure '78 Skunk

ooops

so I now have probably about 1K beans altogether of pure '78 Skunk mixed with some '78 Skunk {Annie - AG dom pheno} x GG... lots'a freebies again....

 

[hellraizer30]

Cant wait for all that to drop

 

[boneheadbob]

Sounds like it will drop anyday and he wont be breeding or growing anymore.
