The Q was my holy grail for awhile, along with og#18, and then came ace and plush. they grow as if they're listening, and the electricity they give up is very special. Seems the subcool team has connected with me, as welll as several patients on many levels.

my aos is performing early on so did the querkle & the qrazy train as well all phenos were good & stable to the end & the finished product was very good to excellent so after a couple of not the best grows [some of the blame is mine & some i feel is not] im back with subcools stuff & the nutes & medium ive had the most experience with i think this strain is what ive been looking for & so are some of the others as well

@pharmacoping - What can I say, I love what I do. I saw the picture of your pink pheno too, It's beautiful. How is Plush in comparison to AOS? I wanted to try OG 18, but Sub knows whats up so i figured I'd trust him.


@Herk - I had to re-post them. I know you wont be able to miss that pheno, but I thought a reference might be nice. those pics are at wk5 (even the nug)... ill throw up some more pics today of some cutting/dring.


The comment i made before that i'll say again is: My temps never dropped below 72 at night and for most of the day was 81.... so none of the color on this pheno are from fading. its truly an awesome phenotype that turns completely purple (calyxes only) by week 3 :mrgreen:

not sure how to compare, plush rocks, aos rocks. plush buds are denser/heavier, but who cares, they both rock

Well, they are both supposed to be a cross of the "infamous" black cherry soda (BCS) cut. Figured they would have some similarities.

Picture 021.jpgPicture 019.jpgPicture 020.jpgthe roots are into the slabs now i suspect this plant might turn color on me not because of the stem color i think thats nutrient related but the new growth has some color in the center of the new leaves next week ill kick up the nutes a bit & see what happens this could get interesting my next order i think will be plushberry

Looking healthy:clap:, I think with all the transplanting it might have stressed her to blush a little.

@herk - How many beans did you pop? Unlike the fast growing med-height pheno, the pink pheno stays short through veg (untopped)

i started with 10 i broke a tap-root off 1 while germing them & 1 broke at the stem leaving me with 8 i had a dinafem blue widow freebie that i threw in for a space filler querkle gave me 3 females from a 5-pack & out of 3 qrazy train seeds 2 were female its the transition from t-5s to hid lighting thats got them all trippin with r/w slabs i just sit the block on the exposed slab & in usualy 24 hrs the roots go into the slabs today is 48 hrs & i tries to move the blocks & theyre now attatched to the slabs lately ive been growing in coco but i have the most experience in rockwool so for this grow im going for what i know best i do plan on going back to coco in the future:weed:

Does anyone know how resistant to high temps aos is? My friend was housesitting and he shut my ac off. 2 week old plants were at 92 for 8hrs for 2 days.
Should I chuck them and start over or are they salvageable from hermies and shit yields?

Just as in nature, I think hot days can be inevitable. I personally think, if they where hot for a while, the worst outcome would be stressing them out a little. It might stunt their growth for a week but it will get back on track has long as you handle with kid gloves from here on out. Depending on the AOS phenotype, slow veg growth might be a trait. plus the youngins' like a little heat from my experience.

Anytime you have fluctuations in temperatures, the plant is stressed. Manipulating/fucking up temperatures can increase or decrease yield and potency. Try this experiment (not during flowering). In the mornings experiment with effects that simulate dew. For the first hour of sunlight, mist your plants and lower the temps by 6-10 degrees. This simulates morning dew and increases a growers ability to reach maximum potency. So again, will this increase potency in a given strain. No. This allows a grower to reach a strains full potential in regards to predetermined potency dictated by genetics.
If you are still with me after that, do some reading up on temperature differentials and the DIF. In general, most every grower can benefit from reading up on potency and how it relates to all flowering/fruiting plants. Hope this wasn't TMI or pretentious sounding. Stay crunchy. Crunch* Crunch*

BTW- In regards to your heat stressed plants...Throw that crap away. lol

hermies? shit yields? is this your first run? I can dial my temps 24 hrs from 50-100, at will, and none of these temps ever adversely affect my garden to any notice of mine, except some extra color in the cold, and explosive aggressive growth in the hot. no hermies, or shit yields here.

If they're two weeks old, assuming you started from seed, and female seeds are not available, where would the hermie come from?
if they are dead, chuck em, if they are not, they will recover.

This is my second grow. I already screwed up some seeds. I think the plants will recover after reading some more about it. I read an article that said environmental factors don't affect sex until weeks 3 or 4 of veg. After I got serious with my first grow I got about 2.5 oz but the
