Scorpio's Cavalcade Of Horrors With Hempy, Genetics, Perpetual & Much Much More

So last try on some kilamanjaro beans


They all look pretty good, so Hope is high

Soaking in Vans h202/water

Then half will go into Black tea to soak, half in RO water

Cross yer fingers

Better to have strong ones anyways. I think I am going to start switching to germination directly in soil as I start pheno hunting my strains. Supposedly takes a bit longer but by most accounts tends to ween out the weaker genes and promotes stronger plants. I don't know if its true, but I figure with a few thousand seeds to start looking through, I can spare a few.

The run im currently working i experimented germinating half my seeds right from the cup of water into rapid rooters and the other half straight into solo cups of coco. In the end they both did fine but the beans in the rapid rooters had a much better root structure and eventually bigger stalks. That does seem like a good idea for weeding out weak phenos though, especially if youve got the seeds to burn.

Root development directly correlates to the plant size vigor and yield.... when you are breeding and pheno hunting, environment is just about the most important factor. Breeding in a stressful environment passes on undesirable genes like tendency to hermie.

As far as your germination question, I would reccomend being consistent. And go with the method that stresses the plant as minimally as possible.... so long as your methods are sound and similar it shouldn't be hard to identify the quality cuts. But be mindful males typically grow bigger and after in veg.
 
It could be as simple as the purchased and my kilamanjaro seeds are just a bit under developed

I'm Gunna let my plants go for awhile now, plus to see if better buds develope

Pure kelp lands today, so I'll try that too
 
Well...got side tracked yesterday with my updates... So here we go

Carnival is showing her stuff

So is the ACDC triplets

The Cannatonic is almost ready. Letting the seeds develope more but the seedless bud looks fantastic

Nice seed development

Now for some comparison time. The ATF and Elephant Candy kiddos
The silver tape is veg tent under t5 lights, green is the 12/12 from seed under the GROWant lights

You can see the veg ones are much more developed, there could be 1 day difference in pop days but not enough to make a difference in growth

All are at day 17 today, two are ready to top, I'm usually topping at day 15, so pretty on point

I may pull the 12/12 plants into veg cuz seems they will develop faster.
Maybe veg them for 4 weeks then 12/12 them, Gunna decide today. If I do I may move Carnival to that room and see how she does under the LED


The solo cup kids don't look much different, young and small

My 1st joint I made in years, some Candida

And a few pills

I am interested in making some pills. What recipe did you follow? I was thinking I would try coconut oil and lechtin.

I've done a couple different ways.

Easy way is to use say 1c of oil And 8-12g of dried bud. No need to decarb

Place in Mason jar, I put lid on.
Set oven to lowest setting, mine is 170deg. Place jar on cooking sheet, some oil can seep out

Leave for 36hrs, be sure it dosent shut off over night. I'll re set it before I go to bed, seems mine will stay on for about 8hrs

Shake the jar every hr for 1st 12hrs, then as often as you remember

After 36hr add the lecithin while it's hot
I usually don't strain mine, but you can
 
I just popped 2 more GDP seeds in water

They will fit into my BIG Strain creating project, plus I LOVE PURPLE!!!!

Also all the seedlings are in the veg tent, the 12/12 from seed experience is over...lol
 
So what did you learn from your 12/12 experiment?

Too slow...lol

Think a 3-4 week veg then 12/12 is better, I've done that with better results
 
Thats kind of what I figured. I am torn between trying 18/6 and 16/8. I was thinking about trying it on one grow.

I do 20/4.....pretty much always have
 
Yeah I don't know whats best LOL. Last two grows I did 18/6 and 12/12. I like giving them time to sleep.....just not sure if 4,6, or 8 hours will give the best result.

Im not sure....
I know they need dark, but is 2hr much different, but I think a 16/8 may be too much dark.

Thanks I assume the oil is good for other applications such as cooking? Mrs2mac is really interested in making baked edibles.

I love the oil

Capsules, brownies, coffee, lotions, it works great for all

I like the slower effects of oil vs smoking. I smoke the Candida 20/1 CBD/THC mostly, except some evening to sleep
Oil works better for pain and such for me
