Growing A Legend: An Auto Tribute To Jack Herer

Helps to show that us Canadians can grow .... actually it only made me jealous lol.
 
Has anyone heard from Illizm? He's been in my thoughts quite a few times the last couple days. I hope that the increased daylight hours is working some wonders for him. If you are out there, drop us a line buddy.
 
The amazing lemony/piney smell to me was super strong but has seemed to fade a bout or noseblind. If I do that auto again and get more than one of the 5 pack to root I’m chopping it when it stands the strongest. Had an issue trying to get their White Cookies going but after some talks and frustration they’ve agreed to send me some more seeds of a diff strain to try out. I’m happy so win win. Looking forward to finishing this jack girl out, then my TGA Aces then some Jordan of the Islands breeds ;)

She's getting big. Spread her out to try and get some better light penetration but she is morphing into a jungle! I am starting to dig this girl...she is growing on me.






 
Ok so Van suggested I check out this thread cause I was asking around about the JH auto from CKS that I might like to try. I got 30+ pages into the thread and no-one has even dropped a seed yet so... screw that! :rofl: I’m just going to pop up here and ask the question ...

Hey CS! Are you one of the Canadians growing the CKS genetics? How long has she been ‘up’? How’re you finding it?

And others, are the CKS plants performing ok?

...’common’ name for comfrey is knitbone ;)
It’s a great source for natural fertiliser too - a literal green manure (I say literal because if you make a ferment out of it, it truly smells like, well, shit!).
Hi Amy, I'm growing a CKS JHa, but I don't know if I can give you a good answer. I have a couple but they are in soil that may be too highly spiked with nutes. I guess the first thing I can tell you is don't overfertilize them haha. I do have one that is coming up nice; it's been in the soil since late January but there's still no sign of pistils on it that I can see. I think some of the guys using Greenhouse seeds are starting to flower.

I don't know if I'm jumping ahead of myself by saying this, but it's probably not going to be on my list of potential strains to grow in the future. Two months waiting for an auto to bud... I'll find another one to try.
 
Oh wow, everyone's been busy while I've been sleeping.
morning guys and hiya @Amy Gardner. Some really good info this morning....
@flytier, we only get silver birch here, would that work....
@Pterostychus, thankyou kindly for sharing that as we have willows following the river course that flows through our town.
@Amy Gardner, lol I've heard it called knit bone but couldn't remember.

There are many species of comfrey. The one I have is the most common type ( S. Officinalis) unlike its cousins it doesn't spread vociferously or take over the garden and doesn't emit chemicals which repel other plants. As Amy said its a source of nitrogen and it's meds.
Good companion plant.

Enjoy your day...:thanks:
I'm not sure Smeegol, it's a fungus that grows on the white andyelloe birch out here, it's called Piptoporus betulinus, aka birch polypore. You could look it up; if you can find it it's good for a whole variety of things.

So how's your back, feeling better today?
 
Can't recall the time on these but my autos ran 84-110 days from sprout. There are quick ones out there but I don't think the JH was one.

No, I really never thought it out when I chose JHa, did I? I wanted to grow a sativa-dominant but I didn't have the patience to grow one so I figured, ok, let's try a sativa auto. Joke's on me.

Definitely not using one of them when I do my cross this summer. It's still the Dwarf Low Flyer that's going to be the mama plant for the soon-to-be world famous Flyin' Fuck® auto.

I messaged him last month. He mentioned not smoking currently... he was gonna maybe be in my area this summer. I told him we should spark one if he's toking...
 
Hey don't discount what you have Fly.....think about about the range of plants we have from the Greenhouse seeds. Mine is definitely the exception out of the bundle I got. For each one of those, we have Sheds that didn't make it....Chris's Greenhouse is smaller and slow growing. Dabbers was slow and is picking up steam. Jesse's greenhouse Jack is doing decent but not blowing anyone away.

Pop one or two more as it warms up and if you find anything great then Bonus!!! Nothing ventured, nothing gained!
 
I'll have an update today of my captain Jack. Hope your weeks are off to a wonderful start my friends

Evening everyone...

@flytier, been a really long day, had my nephew visit ( 5yrs old ) as last day of school holiday, all chicken farmers in 30km of town all got a bad batch of 1 day old chicks three weeks ago. All farmers are reporting the same symptoms and the 3 week old chicks are dying left right and centre... Some are losing hundreds a day my brothers just lost over half of his batch of 500 chicks in last 4-5 days...So very stressful stuff and kids get under your feet and when you stressed like my brother gets, it's better to disappear hence myself and my nephew spent thewhole day watching Peppa Pig....:yahoo:

My backs just getting more painful, haven't spoken to my neuro doc as he's been in surgery all day, and till 3pm tomorrow so it's just relayed messages through his secretary. My op is scheduled for Thursday afternoon most prob doing MRI in the morning not sure yet, waiting to hear..

Cheers for asking, have a lekka morning guys..
