Damn! Sorry I forgot to visit my own thread for so long, but that's about to change. Why? Because having nothing growing other than Grandpa's Moonshine clones I don't need isn't working for me, and since I'm not going to make it to NY this winter (again) I decided to get a couple of beans going.
What kind of beans? Autos!
That's right, autos. I thought I'd use the tent and the oil-filled heater from the shed and see how I can do with some quality auto beans (mostly) indoors this winter. I had given away all of my auto seeds to a member-in-need a couple of years ago, but as luck would have it the Pacific Northwest Seed Fairy happened to be driving by and dropped off some of his autoflower genetics.
I had choices to make, so I went with one that no one here has grown out yet and one because I liked the name.
One is
Queen G auto, which is a cross between Dr Wookies x Triangle Kush x Mephisto Pink Livers (Dr Wookies is a cross of Wookies x Cannabiogen Destroyer for those keeping score at home).
The other is
Ruby Tuesday auto, which is a cross of Cannabiogen Destroyer x Triangle Kush.
I scuff all my seeds in a mini Altoids tin lined with sandpaper:
After a few minutes of shaking, they go into bowls with one third 3% H2O2 and two thirds distilled water, where they sit with paper towels on top to keep them wet all around:
Labeled!
After about 15 minutes of that I dump out most of the mix and replace it with just distilled water, slide the bowls into a box, and put it on the heat mat at 80ºF:
No tails this morning but it was only 12 hours.
I'll run these at either 20/4 or 18/6 in the tent under the Mars Hydro SP 250, and maybe get them out in the sun for some days once they're in flower. It doesn't get very warm in my house during the winter (never above 70ºF) but I'll do lights off in the afternoon when it will probably be the warmest in that room.
Wish me luck!
Quotes:
Thanks Scottay!
Thanks double H, and I completely forgot.
I doubt anyone will do a rip-off though since barely anyone makes salve!
It's going to be interesting to see those numbers, and if you grew more than one and have an extra $10 around, it would be interesting to see if they're the same!
What Azi said 100%. Grow indivual THC and CBD varieties and blend to the correct effect when used.
I still have CBG flower around so I'm going to see how that works mixed in with the THC flower.
Energy! Relax! Take me home!
Always glad to give you a needed kick in the tush.
I just made another 70 capsules this weekend!
I
this!
