well decided to change back to 18/6.....still only got first sets of leaves....but was thinking that is would be better for when i cloneso i can just throw the cuttings into 18/6 to root and not have to have another veg box....but fuck stressin the clones with the lights....but i guess clones are suppose to be way more stable than a seedplant and since my RD nutted late into flower im hopeing the clones i took will stay girls....but should be gettin the camera soon G13 looks bomb...ho yea also figured out that im growing G13 Thai Super Skunk not Power Skunk...got the seeds mixd up i guess, but it is obvious cause just sprouted another G13 Power Skunk and it looks way more indika than the plant in flower so yea:peace::joint:

and since my RD nutted late into flower im hopeing the clones i took will stay girls....
A couple of generations of cutting still were shitty with bananas on my Red Diesel...just got rid of a zip to the ex-wife AKA "La Chiminea"...I would give up on the RD...not worth the trouble.

I have Headband and K-train which have both been susceptible to some late bananas...started doing more LST so the plants finish shorter, further from the indoor star...and @ 7 weeks on the k-train...not one yet...knock on wood!

So it is either lower light intensity, or the trait is disappearing...hopefully the latter.

I think Barney's fuck up on the RD cuz although it is vigorous...they are known for stronger buds...18% THC my ass!

its actually supposed to be 23% thc on the RD. I have them as well...4 going right now....no signs of sex yet.

My Dinafem California Hash showed female within 1 week of 12/12 :)

One of my RD girls showed in 3 days...Ak-48 showed at 9 nodes under 18/6

Well looks like we were both wrong...it is 19%...none of the 3 phenos I had will do this (even grown by folks who know what there doin'!) they DO yeild large and grow vigorous...all 3 pheno's hermied for me...the smoke is not bad...just not great for potency and for mood elevation:neutral:

decided to throw the clone i took from the last standing RDclone and threw it into flower too...im figuring if anything goes wrong ill notice it on the big clone first and just pull em both....but if they both dont sack up i have a cutting of it rooting right now....and i cut the lower 4 branches on my tieSSkunk to kind of try to get the main cola to grow in faster...from what i smoked it was alright it got me pretty high but tasted like shit cause off all the nutes i think.

you didn't flush??? your still using that 1000W right? are you going to try to max out the potential of your light?
yea bro im, back to the 1000w....the 400w only dropd the temp about 2-3 degree so i figured i might as well just use the 1000 since growth is so much better , been thinking baout buying a vortex when i get the cash, i want to wait for them to make a 6" V-series tho so.....and yea im a 2 patient grow so i can flower 6...so far 4 G13tieskunk and 2 RD:peace:

i have the same ones, and i never did any of that, and they rooted fine with no ph stress or anything.
yea i havent had any problems with the jiffy pots....alltho i will say the gro|dan RWcubes help produce thicker whiter roots(atleast for me) seems that RW is the way to grow:peace:

I tried the jiffy pucks for 5 seeds...they absolutely suck! The netting on the outside IMO is too tough for the roots. I cut them out of the fish net and put them in a leftover 6-pack pot from the nursery.

Rockwool is the way to go for cutting especially. they hold lots of air and water and can be planted in any media or not.

Good luck on the RD Bubonicdude!...but I think we both know where they are going:neutral:

i know man i was thinking the same....not saying it wont or hasent happend....but i did clip a little off the other day and it had no seeds at all, not even undeveloped ones(like ALL my RD have had)and didnt smell like grounded seed, so i dunno imma keep it going, i would like to get a steady female of this strain...i mean NYCDeisel and California Indica....that just sound so fucking sexy to me....+ isnt barnesy a way good breeder? they win all kinds of awards n shit right, i have a hard time believeing they would put a dud out like this...so i guess well see in a couple weeks how it turnes out fingers crossed

Yeah, I do not know what happened with Barney's on this one. I have thought, cuz of the awards and stuff, that they kick ass. My grow "acquaintance" grew morning glory and said it was everything they said it was, so he went for the night shade...not sure how that went but...I was thinking the other day, as when I ordered last it was difficult to get non-femmed seeds for many strains, and as the process produces (I have heard, for what that is worth...and genetically it makes sense) that the first generation following the gib. acid produces hermie trait seeds (and I assume other issues, cuz unless the fem trait [with no hermie trait] is double homozygous dom or recessive [and I doubt it is that simple as it is a DNA f'up]the traits remain, though unexpressed). And I think that is what we got...could be other damage was done to other genes...like POTENCY!

The ex wanted a zip of RD instead of Headband, and as we had already smoked the HB, was stoked with the RD as it looks and smells killer...but it don't do the job...she was bummed...I tried to tell her and even brought the half of HB and waved it in her face, but she is a crack head.:roll:

I gave the RD 3 chances and she sux IMO. The genetics sound good, since I got 3 phenos...maybe there is a good one out there, and I hope you have it. No wonder 4 zips only made like 3.5 grams of hash with 3 runs:evil:
