Hey Shed! The harvest looks absolutely stunning!(and worth all that trim time!) ...been hectic lately but finally got a chance to catch up some...that durban poison looks amazing my friend; camera always loves purple weed! I hope they smell and taste as good as they look...and here is wishing your next grow the best, looking forward to it. Cheers mate!
Thanks AH, and I'm glad you had time to catch up because I just dropped five seeds! Details below ↓↓↓
Here is the Wednesday update...the one where seeds get dropped for the spring grow.
Let me start with the harvest weight for the Colombian Gold that was at 62% RH this morning:
That's 211g (7.44 ounces), which at 141 days above ground gets me to 1.5g/day. I guess that's okay for a cold-weather grow!
Now back to last night around 11pm, when I remembered that I hadn't done the seed drop yet! I pull the bag out of the fridge and spread them out on the breakfast bar:
I discover that I only have
one Candida seed left (hope this works!), and that I can't find the GG4 x ATF cross
at all.
So now I need a replacement, and I see that I have three Golden Goat x Tahoe OG regs. Golden Goat is described like this:
...
a marvelous example of accidental success. This strain was created in Topeka, Kansas when pollination occurred between Island sweet Skunk and Hawaiian Romulan male. The plant is light green in color and has a pinkish hue. The red hairs adorn the loaded trichomes and give the plant an attractive look. The sativa dominant plant thrives in warm and sunny weather and gives big yields making it very popular among most cannabis growers.
The effects of this strain are relaxing and it induces a potent high. In first time users, the effects may be too strong to handle and can at times induces anxiety and paranoia. The plant has a smell of sour, spicy and sweet all mixed together. The fruity taste lingers in your mouth for a long time after the smoke. This Kansas Sativa is an ideal choice for a night smoke with friends or socializing parties. This strain is popular among patients who suffer from depression, migraines and chronic stress.
And Tahoe OG Kush
originated from OG Kush and SFV OG Kush. Though the lineage is quite significant, this marijuana doesn’t need to hide behind its names as it is also a legend in the world of cannabis. Pure Lemon kerosene skunk funk to the max. 70 days flower and watch out, yields will be solid with good training.
At least I
think they're regs. And since I only have three it seems silly to drop two and leave one possible male behind, so I drop all three to increase the odds of getting a female.
So into the bowls of distilled water go the seeds, after a 15 minute soak in water/H2O2:
I keep my seeds, peat pucks, and clones cuttings around 80ºF on a heat mat with a thermostat, and I monitor seeds and puck with a temperature sensor tucked into the
Shoebox of Light®:
This morning I tapped them all with a pencil eraser and got them to drop, so tonight they go into peat pucks.
And just because folks like bud shots, here is a partially dry Durban Poison flower:
That wraps up this dime tour, so I hope you got your money's worth!
