may 2018 report card -
coco/perlite compared to coco/perlite/compost grows -
positives of coco/perlite over coco/perlite/compost
+ buds appear 20-30% denser & larger
+ buds are approx 20-30% more weightier per volume
+ terpines & resin production appears stronger & more denser
+ the coco/perlite mix are more resistant to fungal disease present in grow area

a few pollen chucks in progress...
Exotic Genetix Candy Apple Kush pollinated via Hazeman's Mikado, nice solid plant allround, approx 2' high, should be about 2-3wks before seeds are ripe
3 x Paradise Seeds Sensi Star regs, 2 of which pollinated via GGG Bright Moments & 1 x Goji OG male, wish i could explain terpines like some other more learned folk here but damn its awesome smelling gear already! approx 18"-2' high, these & the lone 'Blasphemy' were planted later(approx 3wks) than other chucks in progress
BOG Sour Bubble pollinated via Bodhi Goji OG, approx 14" high, nice chunky frosty plant, 2 other SB both pollinated by Bright Moments & Mikado males respectively not pictured because of sameness of type

these seeds just plucked from a living plant, new pollen chuck GDP x C99(female) x Hazeman Mikado(male) are nearly ready, will leave plant growing for another 2-3wks to ensure full ripeness

below a classic example of compatible & incompatible genetic combinations when crossing strain types...both types are same age
darker smaller seeds on left are from Greenpointseeds Orange Blossom Special(f) x Bodhi Goji OG(m) extracted from a small lower bud on the plant that is still maturing those beans, happy with the result & its looking good for at least 1k of these beans being reaped.
larger paler seeds on right are Hazeman Mikado(f) x Bodho Goji OG(m) same male used on OBS, yet that is the total amount of viable seeds from the entire 3' plant, there are thousands of non-viable seed husks, have found this event happens in about 5% of chucks, genes do not combine well & non-viable husks are the result
OBS x Goji OG
Mikado x Goji OG

thanks bob, yeah i hate running out of seeds, yrs ago used to have a pollen chuck every 3-5yrs...now since ive joined RIU its every yr lol, cos i didnt know of a lot of good breeders till i got here and learnt, so hows your stuff going lately? weather still ok for a few outdoors?
Y
Got some strawberry glue x skullcap and strawberry glue x strawberry glue full of fem seeds in them. Auto made about 2 or 300 hundred fem seeds.
Got seeds on the way
Biker kush v2.0
Gth1
Uplift
Joystick
Josh dog og
Sour power of and time bandit. Will proberly only get a chance to cross biker kush with joystick before summer. You have a shitload of strains enjoy seeing your pics.
Yeah weathers still good here .put out a few greenhouses .

all good, nice array there, especially keen to see how the Josh D OG comes along, havnt seen anyone else growing it out, been tossing up between that & True Canna Genetics -The Truth, both supposed to be real deal TK OG origins! both around the same price
Yeah there so many different breeders to choose from now. This season I'm mainly going to do
Karma genetics
Rare dankness and bodhi. Going for more potency this season .

Paradise Seeds Sensi Star pollinated by GGG Bright Moments, exuding a nice powerful syrupy terpine which could be the Turpentine pheno? maybe because its been so long since having smelt Turpentine have forgot what its like?
Exotic Genetix Candy Apple Kush(f) x Hazemans Mikado - seeds swelling nicely in calyx...few more wks & they're done

outdoors, im allways outdoors & use greenhouse frame to pull blackout covers over when i need to extend light hours(dont want neighbors seeing lights blaring till 3am!) & also to shorten light hours(mid summer) to have budding cycle in full heat
There looking great. You thought about breeding autos ?

thanks bob, never really thought about autos, bought so many packs this last 2 yrs its really enough to keep me pollen chucking like a maniac for the next 10yrs ha, to the point if i dont there will be some that become non viable through age...and thats a CRIME in my book lol!

thanks thumper, i do try to get a decent yield most of the time, this recent pollen chuck was aimed as a 'short term heavy yielding' breeding session, yet im not sure what will pan out of that? not being a commercial grower i grow for my family and relatives that inhabit the surrounding areas & some of them can chuff through a fair bit when they want, a lot of the previous chucks were/are light to medium yielders & this last few yrs have been struggling to keep it up to them, hows your frame setup going now?
