Prof's Lab: Diary Of A Bedroom Farmer

[ProfessorFlora]

I take off fans when I harvest.

I normally do but that was a busy month. Never again lol

Wow you look like you’ve got your hands full P. Never short of a strain or two in here! lol Looking good mate.
I’ve never seen the polyploidy trait in my plants before, shame mine is a Male. Must be really rare to have four plants in the same grow.
Cant wait to see how the Chocolatina x Guicy Banger shapes up.

Cheers Lew. Turns out it was only 3 in the end. The Chocolatina, One of the unknown fems and the Pineapple Express all have mutations showing in a couple branches. So far it is only showing on the top of a branch on the unknown fem but the others have it going down the stem and it is especially noticeable in the PE, Here is the top of the fem....

Here is the PE....

The chocolatina has 4 bud sites in places but they are still a little small so I will grab a pic of them when they develop a little more.

While we are here this is the Chocolatina x Cheap Trick....

And this awesome little plant is the Crumbled Lime x Unknown....

Finally we have the two Chocolatina x Guicy Banger's....

All looking good so far.

Hey syenite! Super-cropping and heavy training update coming up later today.

Hope everyone is well and high AF

Cool mutation, don’t see that often.

 

[ProfessorFlora]

Happy babies look great!

Thanks HH. They look flat now. I will show you shortly

Cool mutation, don’t see that often.

I've only had it once before and that was with a Blueberry Gum from G13 Labs. It looks like there might be another one on the Chocolatina but I can't quite tell yet.

 

[Pennywise]

A type of Fasciation maybe?

 

[ProfessorFlora]

Hey 420. Yesterday I finished snapping and tying down the branches to get the already low plants even lower. Many mistakes were made with some branches snapping a bit too much. The good news is that every single one of them survived and are still growing today. I do have to strap some of them back up but for the most part it went well.
Now begins the game of keeping them all down as not all are tied as I ran out of string. I tied the strongest looking stems on some and super-cropped some others. It all looks ok today though. Here is the mess....

 

[ProfessorFlora]

A type of Fasciation maybe?

It looks that way doesnt it. It'll be fun to see develop.

Nice work Prof! I’m not sure if you’d already heard this one, but if you do your bending when they’re thirsty, they’re less likely to snap. Amy taught me that one.

[Pennywise]

I still have my eyes on the Tashkurghan.

 

[Heavenly Hybrid]

[Bionic Chronic NZ]

Looking awesome in here man.

 

[ProfessorFlora]

I still have my eyes on the Tashkurghan.

I'm revved up to see all of the Afghans in here. They all have something great about them

Love those pom poms Prof! Happy tweens ya got there

If I remember rightly, they should grow into a sort of heart shape by the end.

Looking awesome in here man.

Thanks BC and welcome to my journal.

any I should know about? Hopefully we should have another round getting ready to pop from the soil.

 

[Pennywise]

@ilikemsticky has Baluchistan going right now.

 

[syenite]

Looking fantastic, Prof!

Nice work Prof! I’m not sure if you’d already heard this one, but if you do your bending when they’re thirsty, they’re less likely to snap. Amy taught me that one.

This! Also, I highly recommend needle-nosed pliers with some duct tape wrapped around them. Necessary? No. But you can get some amazingly precise bends, and pliers seem to lessen the chances of breakage by applying straight lines and uniform pressure.
