You have a ton of talent my friend. Keep up the great work. +Rep
Thank you bigv! I'm still very new. This is my third grow and first with the 250. I've documented this grow (in my personal journal) extensively and learned tons. However, without a proper veg area, I'm merely documenting genotypes and phenotypes. At some point I'll find something I love and have the space to properly mother and clone. That's the goal: anti-terrorism and never pay for shitty pot again. okay, damn... the bagseed has me rambling like a dennis miller.

peace.

[FONT=&quot]NARRATIVE[/FONT]
[FONT=&quot]This particular report is on the spicy phenotype of Grapefruit by Female Seeds.[/FONT][FONT=&quot] Grapefruit has fantastic bag appeal and very sticky buds. Grinding is not recommended as this will most likely only gum up your grinder. Squeezing the buds produces a very bright grapefruit/citrus scent like someone is peeling a grapefruit.[/FONT]

[FONT=&quot]Upon first inhale, this grapefruit is very peppery and spicy, a bit of grapefruit and citrus in the nose. The smoke is very sweet and lingers on the tongue of sweet, ripe fruit. The flavors mature very nicely with a longer cure and the grapefruit smell really begins to come out. This is one of the most pleasurable tasting smokes I have ever had - very sweet and has you coming back for more.

[FONT=&quot]The high is mostly in the head and doesn’t make its way past the shoulders. It’s uplifting and motivating, but may cause a little anxiety, and will make you very social. It can be slightly visual and psychedelic as space seems to warp. Smoking too much will definitely make you feel very relaxed and even a little sleepy. Munchies were there but not overly so. A great wake and bake, party starter, get up and go kinda smoke great for daytime and times where you want to be creative. Mild mental floss.

[FONT=&quot]GROW NOTES[/FONT][FONT=&quot]
Overall, some of the finest weed I’ve grown and smoked though I would hope to encounter the other phenotypes that don’t have the spicy/hashy taste. IMO, not a mother-candidate although she grew very easily in SCROG with little attention. Growing from seed is a bit tricky because she stretches like hell in weeks 3 and 4 of flower and this one went 11 weeks (supposed 8 week strain). 12/12 from seed is advisable but you will lose some yield. This particular pheno was a light eater.[/FONT]

[FONT=&quot]The bubble hash is very racy and will get your heart pumping; even a bit speedy. 73 micron was the largest yielder.

[FONT=&quot]Yield: 2 ounces dry per plant, 250 watt MH/HPS, 3 week veg.[/FONT]

A few things have changed
DIY 4 gallon DWC buckets with 6" net pot lid (was using 3.5 gal & 10" net pot)
Replaced Phat filter with standard filter

Currently growing:
Tangerine dream x2 & Connie Chung x1 - she'll go 12/12 from seed (freebie)

Nutrients:
AN Sensi grow/bloom
B-52, Big Bud, Overdrive, Final Phase.

I'm taking Bud Candy out of the mix this time around and possibly adding voo-doo juice which would be the complete Hobbyist line from Advanced Nutrients. I don't really like taste bud candy gives, kind of artificial.

Both Tangerine Dream have been vegging for just about 5 weeks, and were topped at week 4. they are behind because of a bacteria problem that caused a few large fan leaves to become necrotic. All the new growth is green and lush.

Connie Chung sprouted and was placed into rockwool this morning. She'll go into a 3.5 gal & the 10" to keep her short.
