Bgsixx's 2x4 Grow Lab, Different Strains, Lots Of Pics

This is what i found online, and it seems to be the consensus. Think I'll just pop two more fem seeds, that way im sure of at least 2 females, based on success of germination of course. Now what to pop? And it'll have to wait until Thursday, going on vacation.


WHORLED PHYLLOTAXY (THREE-LEAF SEEDLINGS)
Whorled Phyllotaxy (Three-Leaf Seedlings)

This is a mutation that causes a seedling to grow extra internodal leaves. This is also known as vertical phyllotaxis. A normal cannabis plant grows two internodal leaves. These little monsters, however, grow three or more. This phenomenon is also sometimes referred to as whorled phyllotaxy.

The bottom line? If your plant exhibits whorled phyllotaxy, cherish it. Most growers, however, do not like this kind of variant. While it can absorb more light energy than most plants, it also tends toward hermaphroditism—so keep an eye out!

It's called a trifoliate. It will grow 3 leaves on the main lead, but that's all. That's what the male Tangiewine I'm gonna use is. But after you clone them, it's just like a normal plant. I thought it was a triploid....but that's like a genetic super hero. I think that phyolaxi, or whatever is something else. Or maybe the the technical term....but on here I was told it's a trifoliate. Like a clover. They look really pretty. Lol. I'd definitely pop some gems, just to be safe. Nothing worse then finding all males. You won't be disappointed with rasta Jeff's gear.

Yes you're right, it is trifoliate, but its the same as what i posted, just a different name. Trifoliate is what it is. What i posted is supposedly the genetic mutation that causes it. Anyway its fuckin weird. I hope she makes it. I'm gonna do a dedicated run on rasta's seeds. Just gonna ride it out, im planning for 6 females just in case.

Ok doing a update before I go on vacation for 5 days.
Day 48 flowering
Babes are swelling and looking almost done. Checked trics and they're not ready. Still got 3 weeks. But im gonna keep checking trics, to make sure i dont amber out. Filled up reservoir and poured 1/3 of a gallon over the top of each. Hopefully that'll last until Thursday. Not to worried about these or the seedlings, im worried about them autos. So gonna hookup the iv bags, on Lowest setting. But so far so good, og is look better and swelling, the gscookies are rock hard.
Day 51 nl autos/Day 5 veg
Autos are looking pretty good, watered yesterday, gonna hook up iv bags so they dont get too thirsty. The one is looking very furry!!! Her hairs are starting to turn orange. The other is about a week behind.

Good news all 6 seeds popped. Im happy about that. But that tri leafed plant has got me worried. If she doesnt look better and bigger when i get back, I'll replace it with a blueberry. I guess these 6 will veg for a month or so. Until others get done and dry.

So far im pleased with this run, except for not being able to take plants out, i think i like scrogging. Its a good tool to stretch plants out. Next time i scrog, I'll just go with 2 nice sized plants. 3 is too much for me in this tent with these sized plants. Dam i need a room. Thinking about just converting the whole room into a "growcave"!!! Is that a thing!!?lol take the tv, recliner and coffee table out, and bring in 2- 4x4's along with other 2 tents i could really pump out some trees. But thats down the line, and a dream ive been having. Heres some pics of shit!!!

Day 52 flower
Lights were out when i got back from vacation, but i still looked in on them real quick, they dont look too bad. I'll be able to tell when lights come on.
Snapped a few pics also, real quick.

Day 55 NL autos
The iv bags didnt work, so the gals arent doing to good. Might be close to death. Gave them some water. Wait and see how they react.
Day 7 or so for seedling
Back down to 5, the weird 3 leafed gal didn't make it. The rest made it ok. Looking good so far.

Autos look fine. I guess I should say, a regular plant would be fine. Lol. I dunno about them autos, but, as a plant in general, they look fine. Prolly be extra perky tomorrow with the fresh H20.

 

[bgsixxx]

Ok so i screwed the autos up a lil, hoping they can recover. Gave em a real good watering. I set the bags on the wrong setting, so it didnt drip enough. But it is time for her to start fading to, but shes dry af. And still no frost or smell, wtf!!! I cant see getting high of this shit. But maybe the love is on the inside. Gonna be interesting. Did a comparison photo. U can see the difference, no water for about 2-3 days. Not too bad, I've seen and had longer. But it still effects them. Sorry gals. Will strip all of the ugly shit off tonight. Also give other gal a haircut.

From last night when lights came on.

Snapped a few more day 52 flower pics, day 55 NL autos, day 8 seedlings. Cleaned up the autos a lil. Didn't do anything to flower tent gals, just filled reservoirs with water. Not much going on. 18 more days and will harvest everything. The autos aren't frosty at all, but they are smelling pretty good. Weird

Some chunky buds on them autos though.

Yep, nice looking too, except the frost just isn't there. On either one...nothing visible, but they smell when you touch them, very faint flowery smell.

 

[bgsixxx]

Gonna check trics, on auto tonight. Gotta see if there are any?

Day 56 for nl autos
The one in the front is about done, must be 2 different phenos. The back one looks like it has a minute. They do have trics, just need a scope to see them. Checked trics, all cloudy with a few amber, will give her a couple more days. Maybe, just tired of lookin at her tricless ass!!!

She don't look too bad!

She don't look too bad!

i agree. guess the gsc got me lookin at shit different. i know one thing her trichomes are twice the size of all other plants. the biggest tric heads ive ever seen. cant wait to smoke some. she is a quick finisher though, shes done. another thing ive really seen in the autos ive grown, is they dont amber up much. so ill probably chop her sunday, shes 8weeks old.

Edit: the breeders recommendations for flowering times on these NL autos is 75 days. So either i got a pheno that is a faster finisher, or a whole other strain auto. All i know is that shes done. I can take her down at anytime. The other looks like it'll go the whole 75 days. Could it be the pot difference. Doubt it. My watering technique is possibly better with hard pots. But i am getting better with the fabrics. Note to self, add more soil to seedlings, was trying an experiment, by leaving pot half empty and letting plant stretch above, then backfilling. My theory being that the once exposed stem, now covered in soil will grow roots within 3-5 days and plant will grow faster and more vigorously. I was high thinking about it, so its probably wrong, but im a do it anyway!!! Had 2 seedling in pots that were full already, but 1 died!!!

I love growing!!!!

hell looking at the flowering tent and those hoes look ready too, but im stuck on 70 days. they are just not fading yet so they stay.

Theory is correct. I do it when they get a bit stretchy.

Day 56 flowering
Everything is going as planned. Was trying to let these plants go 70 days, but they are looking done to me. But im gonna stick with the plan. Im so anxious to harvest, but ive got time, veg plants are no where near ready. Timing is off this run. I guess they're fattening up, but looking everyday, its hard to see the difference. I think they're swelling though. And they are frosty. I'll start checking trics friday, just fir the hell of it!!! They will go 70 days. Might take a sample or 2, but im working on my patience in the garden. Wine making is also helping with my patience. Got 8 gallons going now. 3 apple wine, and 5 banana wine!!!

Day 59 Nl auto/day 12 for seedlings
Harvested 1st auto. She was looking done and i need weed!!!! This harvest im not gonna be so generous, gave about a quarter of my last run away!!!(4ozs) I say it every harvest, but i mean it this time. Last auto is looking so so, not impressed with these autos, they show promise in the beginning, but i either fucked them or the genetics suck. Wont run them nl autos again.
The seedlings 3spk's and 2 sfvog's. Are chugging along. Not stretching so dimmed lights a tad. Nothing special yet. Still gotta sex these plants. Think im gonna use 3 gallon pots, was thinking of 2 gallons. Also gonna pop some more seeds, not sure what yet maybe orange gasm and a blueberry. Gonna start trying to grow plants a lil shorter and wider, less leggy. Got some pics.

Day 60 flower
These babes are dripping with resin!!! Heavy dense nugs all around, not denser than the glookies, but nothing can compare to her density. They're still spittin white hairs, very few but they're still sprouting. The gsc on the right is really purpling out. She's a great looking plant, probably my best plant so far. The other gsc on left is doing great too. She's been abused and broken, but still is producing some oily greasy dense nugs. The og is coming along great too. I thought she would get swallowed up by the gscookies but she meshed right in with em. Her buds are greasy af, and fat and dense. I think the 70 day mark is gonna be perfect for these babes. Just been giving them water like every 2-3 days, trying to stress them a lil to produce more juice!!! Thinking about switching lights back to 18/6 for 8 days, then turning lights off for last 48 hrs. Also turned brightness up to 100% on 200 watter. The 150 watter stays on 100%, can't dim it. Dropped 2nd net to hold up those 2 long branches on gsc on right. Will tie anything else up to the net if they start flopping. They're leaning real hard now, but the 1st net is doing its job and hold these heavy buds up.

Day 63 flower NL auto/Day 16 seedlings
The spk is real delicate when it comes to watering, seems like she likes to dry out a lil more than the sfvog's. So they were looking a lil droopy in pics, but they look better now. Might be why they're smaller than sfvog's. The sfvog's are looking great. Gonna hit them with some fish shit, and start getting pots ready for final transplant. Decided to go with 3 gallon ac infinity fabric pots, which are more like 4 gallons. Also thinking about diying an automatic watering system with 5 gallon reservoir. Seen a couple of lil cheap kits on Amazon.
Also stopped by bro's house to check his shit out. And his 4x8 tent is full with day 33 flowering buds and looking great. He's been doing more research and learning on his own, to develop his own style for his own situation. Just what i taught him. Also told him less is more when it comes to these plants. No pics of his this time. I'll grab some next time. Here's a few pics of my babes.

 

[bgsixxx]

More day 60 pics. Also forgot the harvested auto is dried and trimmed.
Got 45g. Not bad. They do have frost, and the smoke is alright. Probably should've went another week or so. But its not bad, and my mom loves it. Probably gonna make some brownies outta it though. Just not my kinda high.
