thanks man.
it's still early days but i can see her being in my collection for a while based on the growth and smell she is putting out.
it is very chemical smelling, like a mixture of cough syrup and sweet cheesy goodness, non of the other plants have developed strong odours yet so i'm thinking this may be a special plant.

Have a small tent set up now I just got an aero cloner today so I'm just
about ready for some real work. I'm tired of having a great pheno 1 time
and never seeing it again.
:peace:

it is a sin to let special strains go, cloning before flower with at least one decent label ( preferably 2+) is definately recommended.
but at the same time you can get caught up on something that you think is special only to realise down the road that is wasn't as special as you once thought. if i had kept my og#18 i never would have tried the dog and discovered BB.

number one for me was

slh from greenhouse - i germinated one fem seed and it was one of the best phenos you could have wished for, terp city basically. i tried multiple times to find it again but to no avail. the phenotypes are quite literally all over the shop, i had one that at 11 weeks had only started to produce buds when others where finished at 8 weeks.


but everything works its self out in the end hey. if i kept every strain i ever grew i would be knee deep in shwag lol

SLH seems to figure in a lot of our "best" memories, Lemon Skunk also.
We have all received a single seed to try and this is the catch I wish to overcome
I've had some great sample plants that I just wish I had more of, plus I want to try
SOG for a while.

sog grows are awesome, that is my goal in a garden i am setting up soon, gonna have wall to wall cheese and only veg for a couple weeks, i also have my blue pit personal plant in there with them lol.

i've had many great slh nugs from the greenhouse coffee shop but the one plant i had was just like that stuff, i assume that is the pheno that they selected themselves. it's s shame they hide them so well lol, i would never buy from that company again. about 30 seeds and only one good plant.

good luck with cloning, it's easy but you do need patience lol

swampwreck is beastly, pumping out resin all over the fan leaves too.

they should have stopped stretching now hopefully , strictly buds and resin from here on out.

it's hard to get a sense of perspective but you mentioned that the tall sw was over 5ft so i have an idea lol do you not have a white balance on that cam, or an outdoor setting it might be called, it helps eliminate the orange glow slightly so you can see more resin etc

I'll look, it's kind of outdated but the price was right.
SW tall one is over 5'8" now I hope it's done, CP is a little taller. They only had 5 wks of veg.
They definitely show some great hybrid vigor.
:peace:

I had to buy some, after 5-6 years looking at bare hps bulbs i cant even go out on a bright day now without sunglasses, hurts too much and my eyes just close and i cant open them until im somewhere darker again, optician reckons ive gone from perfect eyes all my life to severe damage over the last 5 years and is adamant it will affect me later in life
