Just moved to Oregon and got some plants started. A bit behind the curve but should turn out all right. I should get a grow journal going on it.
nice move to Oregon, its all legal there now isnt it? yes its good to have a journal to note your progress over the years, also without a journal its hard to find old posts you made on different threads which contain nice pics and info

That's one hell of a lineup. Subbed up for this one.

I have 11 G13 Skunk that got wet tonight, will soak them until I see one crack then pop them in coco. Going to run them outdoors for a late fall harvest.

Hope all goes well for you.

thanks joe, really looking forward to this season cos i think have got the coco nutes dialed in ok now after the transition from soil, had a lot of mishaps the last few yrs, be interesting to see those G13 Skunks, mine were planted today too, first time for Mr Nice gear for me, looking to pollen chuck with some in another grow later if they pan out, your season there will be coming to a close outdoors soon?

I've run the G13 Skunk before, and I really liked how they grew. Compact plants, very little stretch in flower and chunky colas. Might be one to keep an eye on if your area gets humid towards the end of flower...I could see that strain being a rot magnet. If I recall correctly, mine were all pine funk as smell goes...I don't know about you, but I quite like that.

My plants are all in flower, some further along than others. So yeah, the main season is rapidly coming to an end, about another 6 weeks on my more indica leaning hybrids and probably another 8-10 for the sativa leaners. We have very mild winters where I'm at, so I should be able to squeeze a late fall/early winter crop in and have it finished by early December at the latest, if all goes according to plan.

the G13 Skunk sounds nice, im pretty good for bud rot here with a similar climate where i am to Arizona, but ive read the Critical Mass is more of a rot magnet too & wont try that one for that reason, are you doing a journal on your stuff?

Ok, that sounds similar to my area too, I'm right on the edge of the desert just a few hours away from Arizona.

I hadn't really thought about a journal...I might think about starting one, I'll let you know if I do.

i like the dryer desert type areas to grow in, can grow those fatties the coastal areas cannot because of the previous mentioned mold issues...but i miss the coast

Your going to end up with some nice plants matey.
thanks bob, hope so, though at the end of the day even if only a few make the grade its ok, cos that's how it goes with pollen chucks, sometimes those genes match well and other times not so, hows that Josh D going now?

It took forever to Starr flowering with this warm weather so I took it to a mates house and he's revegging it ready for putting out clones early October. The 3 ghost train haze 1 is only a couple of weeks away from seed harvest. The other 2 look like there revegging . 1 skylotus has showed a hair so if she keeps on flowering I'll put something over her. The 2 joystick and 2 uplift are about up to 2 foot tall 12/12 from seed outdoors and are showing no signs of sex. Got a lot of small critical +2.0 and crumbled lime FEMS I made outdoors. Hopefully they will start flowering in 3 weeks. I've got some autos out bush starting to flower so I'll cross my skylotus male over a few branches of each strain
Auto white widow xxl
Auto mazar
Auto ultimate
Auto gsc
Auto gorilla bomb.
They seeds from this auto ,photo cross will start flowering about November long before any photo strain. There only good for 1 generation than they flower late like a photo the next season. But they do grow a lot bigger than normal autos. I love experimenting with different strains.
Waiting until 20th September before planting the rest of my seed stash
Dream lotus
Sky lotus
Head trip
Dark star
Biker kush
Skullcap
Uplift
Joystick
Dank sinatra
Rugburn of
Starkiller
Walker kush
More cowbell

bummer about the Josh D being slow, nice lineup there for the oncoming season, great variety, like to see that Starkiller & TNR kicking along...i remember many yrs ago KC Brains writing about how he had a serious motorbike accident cos he was wasted on the TNR, he went through a bit of a rebirth somehow & was going to leave the game?...but here we are & the lad is still pumping out those beans ha, but yeah really need some rain here too, i use dams for water, and when they get low like now they get putrid with bad bacteria cos all sorts of animals shit into it while they are drinking

I grew tnr a few seasons ago. Big fluffy buds pure Thai smell. And it loves the rain.

so it must have good mold resistance, last KC stuff i grew out was in 2008, Cyber Chrystal, was only a small plant with main central cola, but had a weird burnt electrical plastic smell though tasted ok and had good potency
