Picking My Agent Orange Pheno

Personally I would choose one with a strong sour present in the flavor. The thing I liked most about the (cloned) pheno I grew was how the citrus was orange without being lemon-lime and the sour aftertaste complimented the funky citrus inhale SOOO well.

on youtube i stumbled across some guy grafting different female strains on one female plant. i dont know about the female to male.... would that make the new graft start producing male hormones? good question dude.... random indeed

Which leads me to my next question; has anyone ever heard of grafting a marijuana plant onto another root system, either male or in the same family of plants? Maybe one with stronger roots. lol Random question I know.

I dont think grafting a female plant onto male rootstock would turn the female into a male/hermie, because when you graft one plant onto another the genetics dont change, so if a plant is genetically a female and you graft it onto a male i dont see how it could change. But im not positive. I've heard of a few successful attempts at grafting marijuana onto the rootstock of hops, a very close relative to cannabis.
If i were you, i wouldnt waste the time grafting unless you wanted to make a multi-strain bush (possibly to get around some mmj laws, have multiple strains on each of your twelve plants...). It'll take a while for it to recover from the stress, and that time could be used to simply keep the plant in veg longer to get a bigger plant.

I started with 10 seeds, 9 of which sprouted, 7 of them I'm pretty sure are female altho it has only been 5 days into flowering.
I grow under 2 1000 watt HPS. They are in "10" gallon pots that when tested only held about 7. These pots have about half supersoil in them, the only change made to the formula was the addition of 2 lbs of kelp meal. Greensand can be used instead of kelp meal. My water is filtered by a filter from Home Depot, it brings the ppm down from about 200 to 20 to 25. I put 2 inches of cedar mulch that has been baked in an oven for 20 min at 250F to kill off any pests. The cedar helps with pest control as well. I don't worry about pH at all once the water is filtered. I topped each plant 3 times and took the bottom 2 branches from them to make clones.
Will be posting photos along the way and any comments on which plant would make the best pheno would be great.

Looks great. I like the usage of cedar to keep pests down.

Some quick pics of the garden at night. It's nice when I'm not done working but the lights are all off.

Look at all these bud sites. They show up a bit better with a flash at night.

Hell yea looking great. Are you looking for a specific pheno?

Dude your AO looks great. I think you'll be quite pleased with that one.

Wow, sub, those are beautiful !!!!!
