Prof's Lab: Diary Of A Bedroom Farmer

12. 12 reviews. Just like last year and now it's a frickin' tradition!
Hey Shed! Am I not too late for that already? When do the 12 days actually start?
I know right. This strain had better be awesome.
They went there.

For some reason I can't respond to messages with only emojis in them but yes and yes. That plant is a beaut and I promise to not kill as many plants next year.

Speaking of plants....
 
Anyone up for a couple more unknown Afghan landrace's? If so then I have something for you. Instead of calling these unknown #1 and #2 I have taken to calling them the Purple Professor and the Pink Professor lol. Here is why.

First we have the Purple Professor. This one isn't doing well. I think there may be some root issues but she is still growing and has some nice features. Firstly she has a true purple colouration and not just shades brought on with temps. The second thing about this one is the amazing smell. We have a landrace which is purple and has a purple grape scent. It must be a Mazari but we will never know for sure....

The second is the Pink Professor. This one may have pink pistils but I'm not certain. Some look like they are turning pink and others look a little orange. Not a wiff from this one yet but she is a bushy and vigorous little plant....

I’ve always liked Exotic Genetix
I certainly do now. So far everything I have tried from them has beaten whatever else I was growing at the time. They've won 3 in a row now. I was a bit disappointed when the Double D's didn't re-veg as it was some of the nicest smoke I have ever had. The Hoe Down was almost as good and the same with the Chocolatina. The flavours just seem so much richer than what I normally grow.

Here's a Chocolatina nug....

I still have a couple of old Cube crosses
Everytime you mention anything from your stash I feel a little smidge of envy lol. I bet you have some Starfighter as well.
December 25th.

I'm going with Salmon Professor, and they look really cool!

Looks like a mini aloe plant on top ('alo Vera as my wife would say in her dad's accent)!
Plenty of time to make up some excuses then.

Salmon Professor sounds a little....fishy. Perhaps if I cross it with Tuna Kush.

Coronation Street humour in LA! Who woulda thunk.
Chocolatina should be on my grow list, it’s a great smoke and that is one pretty bud.

There!! It’s on my grow list now.
Do it! I think they have a whole load of new strains which you may be able to get where you are. I've seen the line up but it is not available in the UK yet. It is called the Red Pop line up. There is a load of Runtz crosses as well which I think are limited release.
 
Only Star Fighter will be the Cube crosses. The Cube is Starfighter bx3
I like the sound of the Kimbo Kush and the Pizookies. I just went and had a look at the Cube and it is almost £400! I'm lucky as it's not in stock lol.
 
The Cube would only be available from private breeders. Mike only released a small number of packs for close to $600. He never made any more.
I saw it on Attitude as out of stock. Does that mean they never actually had it?
 
I was under the impression that EG sold the available Cube seeds directly. I’ve seen them for sale by a few growers but not very often. What I have is Spirit in the Sky x The Cube.
 
Hello Prof, all. :ciao: :passitleft: I just ain't got the bread man. But I love hearing about these strains. Had a ? about the Afghani. Mine always has a strong piney smell and taste....and I grew a late season purple tinted, foxtailed as shit Afghani that is pine pine pine. I've just never had those other phenos. I grew a strange Afghani this year as well that wasn't real frosty and had a very faint pine scent.
And, because of the timing, I crossed it with Bubba Kush on one branch and Purple Punch on another. I got about a dozen seeds all told.
 
I thought I'd best show everyone what the next round of plants will be. Here is what we have in the veg tent currently.

First up we have Bubba's Breath from Katsu Bluebird. Short and a little slow growing but looks pretty good. This one is for me....

Next is Big Bomb from Bomb Seeds who are a sponsor here at 420. This one is what I selected for the family. So far it is the fastest and the biggest so hopefully I made the right choice....

Next we have 3 Chocolatina X Wedding Cake. These are regs and I only need one. I like the look of these already....

Also I still have the Highland Laos landrace which is still to reveal it's gender. I'm keeping this one for the warmer months....

That was the new HL from a recent clone. I trimmed up the mother/father and threw it in the flowering tent so I could see how it grew and to confirm the sex. It is still growing and hasn't shown any signs of flowering yet. It has more quadrupled in size though....

Hey Fred. I do like a bit of pine but I have non of that in any of the 3 I've just finished and the current 2 are fruity. These Afghans are traditional landrace's from various regions within the north of the country. They are all different from the last and it has changed my view of what it means to call a strain an Afghani. It seems far too vague as a term. The effects, the flavours and the growth as been incredibly varied. It has been quite educational growing them.

Sounds like you could have made some nice crosses there.

Hope you are all good bud.
You may be waiting awhile on the HL. Lol
That's what I'm thinking. I just want see a pistil, then I'll be happy lol
