Darkscotia Apprentices - Passion#1 Perfect Sun COB/8COB Citizen K

My apologies for the simpleton questions . I'm really doing well with this cycle and very interested in understanding the subtle variations that you are using .

I occasionally have a crinkly fan or two , but don't have the insight to adjust anything . Don't get me wrong , the girls look absolutely phenomenal right now . I'm just digging for a deeper understanding.

Thanks again for sharing .
 
I am thinking I was on the right track. I have been doing the Brix like clock work every 7 days. I decided on Saturday (Brix day) to wait a few more days before giving it. Then I read this. I like how I was thinking.
 
Welcome back doc and girls look as beautiful as always.
Sorry to all for being absent from forums last few weeks. Life at home has got crazy. Been spending all my time working on a plan to get my store back and running amd getting everything ready for major renovations at home to start in next few weeks.. A lot of stores around me are still going with no consequences at this point.
Girls are all doing just fine except one with some pretty crispy leafs. With that said she still looking like she be killer smoke. All have very amazing smells and very strong. Will get some pictures up tonight. 3 of 4 are ready to chop when soil dries out. The crispy leaf one still looks to have a week or 2 left.
 
It's hard to pin down how it smells. One day it's like rootbeer, the next it's kinda fruity.....gonna have to wait till it's jarred to tell you for sure.

It's been a trouble free grow and for the first time growing the strain I'm very happy with the results.

Would you recommend topping this strain? As you know, I did this one natural.

Its hard to say since I haven't actually run it yet... Both parent strains loved being topped so I would assume the progeny would also exhibit that likeness to topping. I would say most likely it should respond well.

Wow... Rootbeer and Fruity.. interesting... I'm really happy to hear that its been trouble free too. Both of the parent strains (Ogiesel and Black Cherry Soda) were both 2 of my favorite strains that I have had for about 4 years or so, and both were such hearty plants. The Ogiesel grows no matter what with very little issues, deficiencies and so on.. The black cherry soda also was very hardy and is one of the fastest rooting strains I have in terms of taking clones. Generally it takes 1-2 weeks for my clones in my humidity dome to get good roots and generally the BCS is one of the first to get a good root base growing. Its slightly more tempermental than the ogiesel, but still much more forgiving that most other strains I've run.

So far I've had others run it and the smell profiles they described were "dank" and "rotted fruit and dank" and another person told me it smelled sweet and skunky with a fruityness. Sounds like there must be a lot of variation in the chemotype still which makes sense for them being F1's. You are making those genetics look phenominal Doc! So happy you are happy!

Well, I'm growing it 11/13 which on top of the High Brix soil will definitely "sativafy" the expression of the genetics, so I'm not surprised it's different.

It usually takes me 3 or 4 runs to dial a strain in, so I have hopes for even more goodness in the next few months. I'll be chopping one tomorrow and the other a few days later.

Sativafing it will definitely be a plus.. That ogiesel is my go to sleep aid.. literally 1 or 2 hits and 10 minutes and I'm asleep, whether I want to or not... LOL... The black Cherry Soda starts out more of a sativa type energy high but then slowly the couch lock creeps in. Definitely could use some Sativafying for sure :)

Thank you again for not only doing a phenominal job in growing it with perfection but also thank you for documenting it for not only me but also all of us to watch. I really really appreciate it :) Thank you Doc!

Here are some of the last photos while it's still growing......


 
Some long overdue pictures. 3of 4 will come in next few days as soon as soil dries up and last passions will come down probably another week. So another water then another GE. She just got 2 ge back to back thinking it was about her time but no she wants to be stubborn.

Sorry for shitty pictures. Darn camera and next to no supplemental lighting











 
So as of Tuesday I think I’ll be chopping 3 of 4 girls. Both of the bluecheese and one passsions. The other slow roasted looking passions will need another week or so.
The smell from all girls is truly amazing but the bluecheese is amazing. Just want to pick buds off and eat hole lol. Some have a cheese smell then touch somewhere else and get the most amazing blueberry smell. These things are so freaking sticky when picking the odd dead leaf off my arm will breify brush against a bud and then my arm feels like I dip it into honey it so sticky. Will get some more crappy pictures up tonight. Then when I pull them Tuesday I hopefully get some better pictures under some decent light before I harvest them.
 
Hey Dark! Looks like your gonna have a very nice haul of top,shelf produce! Why not use the flash? Do you have a headlamp or other flashlight you could use to light the subject to focus then shut off so flash will go off?

Yup very excited for this one. Those pictures I took is using flash just a dark or tent and next to no other supplement light. Grabbed one of my t5s out of storage to use it as 2nd light for pictures

:passitleft:
Good luck on the harvest. The 1 and only blue cheese I grew was a ten on the smell scale too. Is yours from Barney's Farm? I will grow that again it was a big hit.

Yes sir that exactly where there from. First time growing them and won’t be last probably. Harvest pending of course
 
Icemud! If you're watching, I just harvested the first plant. Every nug was very, very dense, from the lowest to the highest, so this plant is going to yield very well. The smells were like a rootbeer scented candle in a bakery. The bakery smell really came out the last week with the GE drenches and Brix foliar. Brix was at 16 at harvest, which is excellent in my garden.

This strain made it to round 2. It was green a shiney right up to harvest, while it's sister is showing a nice fade with shiney green on the sugar leaves.

Stay tuned for smoke and yield reports.....this strain is promising in HB soil. I have no idea what it's going to be like, but the scissor hash has me typing about 100 words per minute, so your Indica genetics have been kicked to the curb due to High Brix and the 11/13 photoperiod.
