A Cannabinerd's Journey

Where are you located AP? Maybe we could do a exchange

I'm up towards butte co. area, what about you bro?

 

[papapayne]

Eugene/Springfield area. I know there are ways to mail clones as well

 

[AlphaPhase]

For sure! We can figure out something sometime in the near future

I just picked up some "super soil" at the home depot, I did not know super soil came in a bag? Has anyone used this stuff by any chance? It was only 5 bucks and I'm starting a little window sill herb garden soon, but I was thinking since the Headbangers are not fem, I would use the extra soil to plant them in just incase one is male (it's hard to put males in my flood table since the roots become intertwined).

 

[papapayne]

I haven't had much luck buying soil from big chain stores...seems every time they come bugs included.

For sure though, I should be up and running to make clones in a few weeks

 

[AlphaPhase]

I've had similar experiences with Chain store soils, I'm hoping to get lucky, it's an all organic mix and isn't a miracle grow type soil, I got thrips a while back from a bag ssoil so I have spinosad on hand in case, I'll keep it out of the grow room and see how it is on the herb garden and I'll inspect for bugs.

And hell yeah bro! I just chopped down so many potential clones but I'll have a ton soon as well, just wish I had a place for the branches I chopped today, the plants in the veg table have so much secondary growth it's insane. Check these limbs out , I can't even imagine the size the Buds would be if I flowered this table, mind boggling, I need to upgrade to a farm so I can grow everything and have no space issues lol

 

[papapayne]

damn! yea those are some branches! Sucks to lose them, but I understand. The node structure on those looks great man!

Man i am stopping in on alpha on the way too. I just hope i make it past CO. Have a guy wants to show me around some and can have a trimming gig if i stay there, but i really want too go to Eugene. I love art and that looks to be a great place for artist

 

[papapayne]

Oregon is beautiful man, but CO is to. I imagine CO has a higher cost of living compared to oregon

 

[AlphaPhase]

Thanks payne, I couldn't believe the structure on them, much different from the last time I vegged them. Only difference is I'm using an extremely low ppm level, 350 including my 120ppm tap water. I guess less really is more in this case.

That sounds great Dr d! I have friends in Co, you'll love it there, even if it's just for a visit.

The headbanger and blue lemon thai sprouts are doing good, the shells have been shed. Also, was contacted by the owner of a smell proof bag company and I'll be getting to do some testing for them, super stoked about it I love new initiative companies. They had a booth at last year's Colorado cannabis cup

Ya I seem to have crossed into overwatering/to high of ppms. Gonna be cutting back the nutes, see how they do.

I am looking at coco, but will do the amended coco like Hyroot.

 

[papapayne]

I think, from what I have seen anyway, I feel like I should have added in some perlite, mycos mixed in, and maybe something at the bottom of the final pot size for drainage. Would have made daily waterings better if I could use less nute solution and gotten run off.

' It’s like everybody got they hand out
Actin' like they you owe 'em something
They expect you to throw em something
When they really need you to show 'em something
One month, you're broke again
Actin' like you ain’t throw em none
Ungrateful ass niggas, they only love you when you giving
And the day you say you ain’t got it, they forget the days that you did it
You forgot me when I was losin', so forget me when I’m winnin'
Where the dark day was frenzing me 'til the day they befriended me
One day we broke friends, next day we rich enemies
It’s hard being a real nigga, when these niggas got bitch tendencies
Female emotions, I can’t waste my energy
For them I got that remedy, kill 'em with success
Royalty is my pedigree, too fresh to be stressed
But thank god for memories, god willin I’m blessed
My comeback’s they penalty, these haters gon' be upset
And I done lost a couple friends on the way
Fuck 'em they wasn’t really with me all the way - I’ll be okay '

Two week cure and these smell ridiculous!!! The tangilope doesn't smell like soup anymore, smells like fruit snacks. #winning

And that is the perfect example of why i dont cull females and give them at lest one go. Looks great man!

Thanks brotha! I really hated the structure so that's why I hit her with some pollen and just put a new bean into germination chemalope (Chem x tangilope) I just couldn't let her slip away completely without getting something good from her, I really hope the new beans will clear up her mutations and now I know she will smell much better after cure, her smell in flower was so nasty lol

 

[papapayne]

sweet deal man! Here's hoping for a great pheno

My f3 fireballs test bean i ran smelled like a skunk whipped his butt on my nose. Then after a little cure it smelled like a male cat sprayed it. Not very nice at all, but a bud by its self smells great. Smoked great too.

 

[AlphaPhase]

Thanks papapayne, I hope so too, I only got about 6 seeds left of it (one didn't sprout that I tried germing when they were fresh) and some pollen got around to some other plants so I got a few other Chem x beans as well, I'm really hoping I can get one to pop, it's my first actual pollination and I only had a pinky nail amount of pollen, it made about 30 seeds total, there has to be something good to come from it if I can get them to pop (fingers crossed!!)

Lol @ doc its crazy the smells some plants get bro, and even crazier how the smell can change so much after dry /cure, the tangilope tastes and smells like fruit snacks now, more so of a cantaloupe, I'm really happy how the Buds turned out but I just hope a bean pops so I can try for a better growing plant
