Quest for mold-resistant strains, Hawaii outdoor greenhouse grow

[cbdhemp808]

Planted last night in Triforce SIP #2...

Cherry Blossom CBD #9 pheno, N-generation clone.

This SIP grow is now on DAY 17... time to fertigate as I learned from the comparison grow. CBD #9 is now taller than the HI-BISCUS in the SIP, which is on DAY 32.

I'll top-fertigate the CBD #9 with high-N liquid fert, solution grade Langbeinite (aka KMAG... K, Mg, S), and a little solution grade calcium. I would top dress with kelp for iron, or include kelp tea, but unfortunately I'm all out at the moment. (I don't use molasses due to its heavy metals content.)

[EDITED]
This plant is a heavy feeder and drinker. I top-fertigated today. There was no immediate runoff after 1 gal, so I added a full 2 gal, and then got lots of runoff.

Cherry Blossom CBD #9 clone, DAY 17 in a Triforce SIP. Just over 33" tall.

I just performed a search function on the thread that's a way to navigate otherwise I'm lost but purplegunrack mentioned Frisian Dew from Dutch Passion.
That's the outdoor classic in the Netherlands, I've grown it as well, It's late October and it's still going strong in gardens around here. And I just looked up the profile and it's dominant Mycrene but with Pinene & Terpinolene as the main others.

Thanks for the tip on Frisian Dew. I did some searching... very popular strain. According to seedfinder.eu, it has 5 known phenos... some sativa, some indica, some purple, some green. It's a balanced 50/50 hybrid, and effects will vary depending on the pheno. According to Dutch Passion's own terp profile, beta-caryophyllene and alpha-pinene are dominant, and terpinolene isn't prominent. But there's evidence that one or more phenos contain significant terpinolene. Leafly says myrcene dominant, with pinene and terpinolene. I read a report of a grow if Frisian Dew that produced 3 phenos from feminized seed. One of the 3 phenos had some "mould" on the buds.

So in general, I classify this as a 50/50, with some pheno hunting involved to find what you're looking for.

It reminds me some of Grand Daddy Purple, another strain with Afghan and Purple lineage, and high in terpinolene.

As you know, I already have a 50/50 w/ sativa effects that I'm working with, HI-BISCUS, which is 100% bud rot resistant.

At this point, I'm more interested in sativa-dominant and indica-dominant, rather than 50/50. I keep saying this like a broken record, but... there's lots of options for a fast-flowering sativa-dominant strain/pheno with terpinolene dominant or at least high terpinolene; and, my focus now for an indica-dominant strain/pheno is Northern Lights #5.

ah oké, it's just that one is really common around here as it's one of the few that makes it to harvest.. the flavour is also special as yes she grows purple bud, vaped there's a lot of sweet lavender coming through mixed with incense like floral pine flavours. Very delicious, smoked she's a bit strange though.
And it comes from up North in Holland where they speak a very heavy and old dialect that's has a lot of similarities with early English and it's very wet and cold there. But yeah that's kinda an outdoor goto around here.

Dutch Passion's Shaman strain is similar... Skunk and Purple. It's sativa-dominant and Leafly reports pinene dominant, with terpinolene and ocimene. Alas, it's got an 8-9 week flowering time. I'm looking for faster flowering.

8-9 wks is fairly short for a sativa dominant. i've run 17 - 20 wks in flower on some.

Gotcha. Humboldt Seed Co. has five sativa-dominant that are under 8 weeks, incl. 2 that are under 7 weeks. It remains to be seen if any of them are highly bud rot resistant. I'm guessing at least a couple are.

I harvested Humboldt Dream today... got a couple tubs, one large buds, one popcorn. Not bad for a plant that I almost didn't flower because she was too long in veg and root bound in 10 gal. Zero bud rot. I would say trichomes were mostly milky, but not amber except for some on the sugar leaves. Another day and it may have been a lost harvest.

Good looking flowers.
