This is a desired pheno of the "tangie" they claim it only surfaced in seed from one male so you can't get it in the normal tangie stock and that it's in limited supply. I never noticed it as it was always out of stock but I just got a couple as freebies so here's what I'm wanting to know-

Anybody have any information on the rate of the blood pheno compared to other phenos?
Anybody run these at all?
I haven't found much of any info

I know this was posted in May, but got a handful (x10) of these regular seeds and sprouted them all. Out of the 10 seeds I lost 3 of them and 3 of them where heavily mutated, but have since found out that Crockett Family Farms seeds are notorious for producing quite a few mutated looking plants. So this left me 4 to raise up and to determine sex and best looking female from that. I now have a very sexy Blood Orange mother, and her first crop of 24 plants growing. They are just finishing their first week of bloom, but can keep the update on this strain if people show interest.

I had what their calling the blood orange phenol.
It is nothing that special. Except for the extremely purple color.
Seems to be a little more sativa, but in the weaker side.
Not the best tangie pheno

No worries...will post some updates. So far now in 2nd week of bloom and they have gone real stretchy and exhibiting the sativa leaves. Currently I don't think photos will be all that exciting, but I will post photos once I start to get some flowers jumping out. Oh and btw I was given the full line of nutrients by The Professor's Original as a sample and thought I would have a go with them on their own this round, then running a side by side with Bloom Advanced Floriculture's (Yellow Bottle) basic schedule. I am not sure if The Professor's Original is available outside Australia, and I know that Bloom AF products are, but apparently they are over the top expensive for non-Australian consumers, but here in Australia, Bloom is actually one of the cheapest if you compare mL used per reservoir, and its ease of use and results where far better than GH in my opinion and testings, which I used in my beginning days.

At moment, like I said I am running the full line of The Professor's Orginal. Which is a 2 part (A&B), Go Roots - has a fungicide, humates, and fulvic acid, Go Green - Which from the booklet they sent is just a Cal-Mag with extra boot of Nitrogen and Iron and some Fulvic Acid (which as per their nutrient schedule they say to run this till the end of bloom, but the Nitrogen component has me second guessing this as they clearly don't say what % of this is N. So I will run this for the first 4 weeks of bloom just for the cal-mag component), Flower Boost is just an early bloom PK, then last few weeks I will stop using Flower Boost and switch to Extreme Boost (which is a late bloom PK powder for ripening, guessing its very similar to Koolbloom dry from GH). I am running my EC at the top end of their recommendations of their feed chart at 2.1 EC (they actually say 2.0 EC in the book, but I am trying to push the limits of this stuff, so that I can tell other Aussie's how far they can go with it, for those that want to jump down this path of nutrients). All this on a 600watt SoG table running 24 plants in 3 inch (75mm) rockwool cubes on top of a rockwool slabs, feeding 2 times a day for 15 minutes each feeding and maintaining a pH of 5.7-6.0 and nutrient temp of 18-20 degree Celcius (maintained by an aquarium heater in the res)

At first impression of this Nutrient line, the Base Nutrients uses ALOT to achieve their recommended 2.0 EC, so in a 60 litre res, I will have to grab a second set of Base nutes, might contact the sales rep and see if he wants to contribute to assist me to the end so I can report back with final results.
