Indeed. The Afghan #1 is turning out interesting though. It has a musky and almost creamy, banana scent and the flowers are super dense.
Same here. Problem is, they prefere quantity over quality and although they like the look and taste of my buds, they always complain about the yields. I have tried to explain that 8oz is good for 200w of lighting but they are from the 1000w HPS days lol. I have competition in the form of my brother in law. He uses a 600w HPS and gets around 9oz per plant which my family thinks is amazing. I pull 10oz with 300W of LED and everyone moans lol. The reason why is that we have to split it so everyone would only ends up with a few oz each. It is my fault really as I promised that I would find them a good heavy yielder and run clones for them. Critical or Big bud is what they want.
That's interesting news! The only hermies I had were both African landrace crossed with AK-47. I grew two and they were both hermies. I have the original landrace seeds as well but haven't sprouted them yet. Not sure I want to after reading this along with my experience with them!
I never took you for a ladybug...
I was thinking something like Dinafems Critical 2.0 as it has humidity resistance and I have grown it before so it is familiar.
The take down has begun! Last night I found some mould on 2 of the plants so they were removed and processed. The Tashkurghan and the Sativa Dream both lost their largest 2 flowers which is a bitch but it could have been much worse. Both had massive flowers with the Tashkurghan surprising me. They are quite spongy but they are probably as large as any of the hybrids. Tonight I will tackle the rest and get them all down and washed.Congrats on the pending take down Professor! Sorry to hear about the seeds, and I hope that pollen stayed put and you aren't pulling seeds from the rest in there as well.
Thanks syenite! Hopefully we will have finished the harvest by the weekend now. More of those difficulties lolHey Prof! Happy harvesting this weekend!
For all the difficulties you've faced, those are some beautiful flowers and colours.
Will be following your breeding projects with great interest.
4 down now and I'm knackered. I will finish the final 3 tomorrow. So far we have had the 3 Afghans and the Sativa Dream and I must say that if some one offered me to pick between them then it wouldn't be the Sativa Dream hybrid. The Afghans are just so cool. Whether or not I will still have the same opinion after they hit the jar is a yet to be seen. The Afghan #1 landrace has all the hallmarks of high quality and smells evil. It is rank lol. Right up your street! Here are some trimmed up Tashkurghan flower pics. They are like little boxing gloves lol...
Thanks DD. All is good and there is thankfully no more to report on. To be honest I have been expecting it with how high the humidity has been. We're still around 85% which is 14% better than normal lol.
It seems cruel that plants fade and are most susceptible to rot at around the same time. I spotted it a couple days before I realised what it was. Then I panicked thinking that they all had it like with that disastrous Barney's grow last year. We were lucky as it was right on the stems, deep inside the flower. All is good though.
I hope so. I just had a bit of scissor hash from last night and it tasted like marzipan. It was too small to gauge any effects plus I'm already stoned.
