I never did weight it. But I would say between 10 an 12 oz
Very nice harvest! I just bought 3 440s a couple months back and I am loving the veg results so far. I have Ace of Spades,Plushberry,Mango Kush x Silver Squirrel(my strain),The Flav(Grape soda pheno) x Silver Squirrel and My Straight Silver Squirrel. I am flowering out 2 Ace of Spades Males ATM with the 440(Black Cherry Soda Pheno) for some future crosses! :) I like the Buds the Solarstorm 440 grew for ya they are very nice indeed! I even got a super rare occurrence with one of my plushberry seedlings that the first true set of leaves came out pink..LOL Following your channel.

thanks for the kind words silver squirrel. sounds like ya got some nice genetics running. gotta love throwin pollen around. I was really happy with the quality of bud I have gotten from all crops off the 440. pink seedling wow dude thats super cool never seen that. if ya like I can throw some pics of current run, just switched to flower yesterday. runnin the gth clone again, cookie wreck, montuc kush, old school Nigerian Kandahar that is older than I am, and a bagseed clone we call Campbell river. and I have a pack of fire cookies from relentless going under a 220 veg model, and a alcapulco gold clone and another plant we call grape gum that is almost as old as me too under fluro. feeling spoiled.

That is awesome man! Sure always love pics! Yeah that pink seedling really tripped me out when i took it out in the sunlight to take that picture.I thought it was the light at first..LOL This is my first venture into LED growing as I have always used MH and HPS before. I am really liking how little heat they produce and how squat and healthy the plants are looking in veg. The ace of spades and plushberry have leaves that are bigger tip to stem tip that are longer than the plants are tall..lol some are 9-12" tall and have like 8-12 nodes..lol I turned the red bloom spectrum on to try to encourage a little vertical growth.If all goes to plan I am going to clone them and put them in the budroom 3'x9.5' by July 4th. Right now they are in a gorilla 4x4.I'll take a pic to show ya. :)

the green bud pic with the marlboro pack next to it is one branch of 16 that I pulled off my last Silver Squirrel that yeilded a pound in a 10 gallon smart pot. The pink buds are the plushberry pink pheno i ran last.the others are all in veg now photos today.I hope you enjoy them.

awesome squirrel, looks deadly. I'm a convert to led as well, reduced heat was my main factor too. I really dig the tight node spacing and the terpene profile on the plants seems to be awesome with the led's. nice to see someone else diggin the fabric pots, only thing I use for finishing pots nowadays. very respectable buds, I see where you get your name. nice colour on the plushberry. I had a white rhino from seed one time that had dark purple flowers, all the leaves would be pure green still and the flowers were almost black they were so dark, too bad it didn't compare hi wise cause it was quite the looker.

Thank You. LOL yeah that is where my name comes from. I have been building this strain for 20+ years now.Not continuously but since 93.I can't wait to try the beans I am gonna make with my Ace males..lol I have had to defoliate heavily in veg to open up the canopies to get light down to the smaller tops. That rhino sounds awesome except the potency. I had a purple do that to me before too.Yeah I can't wait to see what the terpene profile will be like under the LEDs and the UVB. :)

PLEASE EXPLAIN: ...'Seeds were scratched then soaked in vacuum pressure for 12 hrs'.

I can understand the scarifying bit but pressurizing the seed embryo..

and not expecting the kernel to drown, ....is a bit far?

Thanks

Good point about the uvb too, i think it helps the terpene and trichrome production
Mad respect for working a line like that. Takes alot of patience to do. Wish more people would have done the same with some of the old school genetics.
Thanks yeah it is comprised of mostly old school 80's and 90's strains(the Squirrel) . I still have a bunch of Afghani#1 (Sensi Seeds) and some Silver Pearl I made seeds from ones that I got at the 1994 Cannabis Cup. Unfortunately being 22 years old they are quite difficult to pop. :( I wish they would they are very fast 6-7 weeks to flower.

low pressure just helps the moisture penetrate the seed.

didn't seem to hurt anything, 100% germination and 50/50 male female ratio.
I feel like there is little chance drowning a seedling this way.

Thanks squirrel. They are doing alright. The montuc looks like it wants less N and the gth looks like it want more, but oh well for the most part i mix the soil and let em rip. Ill get a nice tea goin and all should be well

yeah it would be difficult to do individual perfect soil mixes..lol I am sure a nice tea will get them all happy again! :)
