Well i finally stopped in at my buddies and grab some samples and wow im impressed by bodhi seeds.
Those apollo 13 snow lotus nugs taste like smoking a skunky cheesy. Deep giddy body buzz i cant recommend bodhi enough.
The chemdog from ghs is meh maybe high mid grade.
Doesnt have the same kick at all.

I chopped my cab and have it currently in hanging drying baskets lol took about 10 mins to do a total trim lol i threw more in the trim pile than kept.
Should dry out to maybe 30grams and about 150 seeds.

I also had about a 90% germ rate on my next patch and have about 25 seedlings under cfls for now.
Ive also officially given up on soil. Too much of a pain in the ass. Going to use a dwc clone tote and either use a bunch of large totes to flower or buckets.

Ya once these seedlings i have now are big enough i will put them under the 12:1 veg shedule for a couple weeks to bush out and then they will be flowered out in my buddies room. I may keep 1or 2 for myself.
They will be flowered 6/18 regardless where i do em.

The 150 new seeds will be saved til i move away hopefully sooner than later

Yours are lookin good man

Curiousity pushed me to trying ten of the seeds produced in this experiment so far 6/10 popped and are in jiffy pots.
These lil seedlings are going into 12:1 veg tomorrow.
I topped most already and hopefully they get bushy quick.
Theres alot of different strains so i will have a good variety to pick my favorite 2-3

Almost all seedlings are at least 8" tall. Topped or fim'd all of em atleast once.
The c99 and wappa are growing the fastest.
Because i had a few various seedlings die ive replaced them with my own seeds so i will have alot of plants to choose from to pick the best 2-3.
Think i will let these veg 2 weeks more than switch them to 6/18 and we will try it again.
I will try to get some pics up tonight or tomorrow.

So I'm totally new to this thread. I read all of page one, then skipped to page 19, and it was really awesome to go from the beginning of the story where you were only 1 week in, and still had 7 weeks to go. Now you've already harvested. I think I skipped to the end of this book lol :). Great job though!

Or harvested some. I dont know what I'm talking about.

Ok i switched the cab to the 12:1 veg lighting schedule under a 400w mh.
Im going to add a second exhaust fan tomorrow to help cool the cab down a bit more. After i add the fan and move some stuff i will take a bunch of pics of the different strains.

I didnt have enough net pots so i had to throw a few plabts in soil and to my surprise they are starting to take off.
I may switch the light this week.
Sex them and then make some decisions.
So far c99 and jillybean look the nicest but its early and the goji is slowly comin around.
Cross your fingers for mostly females. I dont want any seeds this time.

Against what i said earlier in the thread i did stick a few jiffy pots in soil and lo and behold the soil plants are twice the size of the dwc plants again. Looks like i know which ones im keeping already lol.
I dont know what the problem is but i dont ever get that maximum stretch and branching using dwc.
Maybe they need to be moved into a bigger tote or individual buckets.

Well the dwc plants are finally catching up to the soil ones.
All these babies are at least 10"-14"
Switched the light last night so i have an easy date to remember.
I will give these a week or two.
Cull the males pick my 2-3 and the rest are going to flower in my buddies room.
Next batch of seeds i put to germ had 100% germ rate and are now in jiffy pots aswell.
My perpetual setup seems to be moving ok now.
Hopefully this round gives me some nice bud this time minus the seed
