Thanks man! It's a battle against bud worms from here on out. I think I won against the mites. At least I don't have the botrytis like I did when I was in Santa Cruz!

We’ve been getting the fog droppin in pretty low here recently in oregon. Got my fingers crossed...

How’s the smell?

It started off a little woody like an incense but it has really sweetened up over the past few weeks.

It has really cool brownish purple hues to it as our outdoor temps went from Mach 10 to liveable.

Alright! Smells good from here! The pics are gorgeous. My buddy has some nigerian sunshine I may try and pop next season, interested to see the different phenos in that one.

This blue orca haze has some real nice incense woody smells coming from her, and really looks like she’s gonna put it on. She is one stacked mama...

One of the yogi mamas. She’s very afghani, stanky and squat. Both my yogi ladies are gonna be done in the next few weeks it seems.
Here’s the other yogi. A little sweeter but still squatty and super frost bucket. Gonna def be rockin the swami gear next season.

Blue orca haze harvested at 62 days. Struggled to finish.

Swami's Vietnam Black x The One/Panama. Received this pack as a freebie.

Found a bud worm in one of my yogis...pulled it out and squished it into some rosin. Super dank plus protein. 30%yield. Hoping I don’t have to do it again...they’re too close to spray bt and too far from done to pull em. Eyes peeled and fingers crossed...

Nigerian Sunshine, Day 73, 480w QB288 Quantam Boards, Living Organic Soil.

I never saw trichs change and I figured 73 days was enough since my buddy pulled his two [very different] phenos at day 66. I am pretty sure this is the BMR BX2 pheno which is very dominant and stable in this series. IT has a very peculiar brownish-purple tinge to the calyx.

Not sure how much longer you have but I would spray BT. It is harmless unless you are in an area that is susceptible to molds and the plants don't dry out. Just spray early AM and let them dry through the daylight.

My final BT spray I just mixed in a small amount of Southern Ag Organic GF fungicide which is another bacillus strain. I only saw a single bud worm early in the year but knew better after they pounded me last year.

If it smokes as good as it looks you have a winner there. I recall Gas said the Nigerian Sunshine was a favorite of people with PTSD. I think we all have a bit of PTSD to be smoking the herb often eh?

SCJedi said:

Gas gave me his soil recipe. Ieven added more to it. I added worms, fish bone meal, and bio-live. On top of that I use a weekly tea listed here:
AACT, Bloom Tea, Veg Tea, Fungal Tea, Myco Tea, recipes from the outdoor guys.

From Gas:

Soil base mix
1 part high quality compost
1 part pumice or perlite
1 part sphagnum peat moss-no additives

Food
1 cup fertrell fish meal per cubic ft of base mix
1 cup acadian kelp meal per cu ft base mix
1 cup basalt rock dust per cu ft base mix
1 cup pacific pearl oyster shell powder

water only-no ph'ing...good for indefinite use,just add more food at recommended rates on each additional cycle

I familiar with a few of the organic teas you're running. If you will, who are the outdoors guys? most interesting it is!

Here’s one of the yogis, stinks real nice like the old afghani a buddy grew a while back. Gettin there. She really puts it on too, nice structure, sqwatty and purpling on the leaves and kinda purpley lavender on the calyxes.

Here’s the blue orca haze smellin like vanilla cream. Mmmm.And as a side note...some blackberry x cherry pie we popped this year.

BOH chopped at 67 days:

I ran Nigerian Sunshine both outdoors and indoors with the same soil and same teas.

Anymore info on Swami Seeds?

I just ordered the NL5 x Nevilles Haze. The original stuff was fire. If this is 2/3 as good as the original it will be a winner.

Best Modern Day stuff Ive ever smoked was a strain I had from 92-97....... Nevilles Haze x NL5 x Nevilles 88 G13 x Hashplant x Skunk #1. It got lost, and Ive been chasing after something as good ever since.

The Female was the NL/Haze Side, Male NL5 x F Haze and the male was 88 Hashplant/Skunk1.....Female HP x M SK1.

Ive got some Stabilized Hybrid x 88 G13 x Hashplant and am going to breed the Stabilized Hybrid x Mr Nice G13 x Haze together.

Should be an interesting F1.

Im also interested in some other strains of theirs.

if you need a test grower just let me know.

I almost have all of mine cut down. I spent the past few days hugging granite and trees in Yosemite.

I fly solo so trimming and curing up 6 outs and 17 ins that all finished simultaneously leaves me with a lot of work. wifey-poo was complaining about the smell of hanging plants when we came home and I won't mention that my MBA program begins on Friday.

I'm kicking around the idea of tissue culture to preserve both solid phenos of the Nigerian just so I have it stashed. I have also entertained learning more about synthetic seeds.

I played the "low maintenance" role with the ones running in the tent and I think that If I gave them a hug and a kiss once in a while they'd be sumfatbitches that dont wanna leave the couch. Bon Bons, red wine and Love Boat kinda bitches. I may test a shift from LOS to coco and a chemgro mix DTW just to see what they do on steroids. Its not my preference of medium but just an experiment since I don't currenty have the space to run NFT.

@Gritzman, let me know if you need a solid AACtea recipe. I posted mine in the AACT thread but am happy to do it here too.

@jimihendrix1 any chance that you picked up Hazeman's 88 G13 x Hashplant and have run it? I got the notice the other day they are back in stock and I'm low on cash. I am curious about what you have seen come out of it so far.

I'm stashing away Swami and Dominion. I wish I had loot for TNF, Coastal, and Hazeman, etc
