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

12/12 from seed is pointless IMO because the plant isn’t mature enough to transition until about three to three and half weeks. So you should always plant to veg for three weeks before flip so as to not sell yourself short on your yield.

I was reading on another thread where Doc Bud said he doesn't flip until the plant is showing alternating nodes. I don't know if that is a sign of sexual maturity or now, but I will start paying attention. Though generally it doesn't matter since I tend to veg my plants for around 8 weeks or longer.

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

So why is the lecithin added after I always add mine before per sues old instructuoins but I noticed she now adds after also???

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.

I think it is opinion and every strain favors differing environments. So not truly one correct or incorrect answer? Some where between 4 and 6 hours of darkness would be ideal for dark cycle and root development.

For flower I know arctic I going 11 13 tontrt and shorten up on the flower times. Doc bud also claims more resin development with less than 12 hours light in bloom.

Just dosent seem necessary to cook the lecithin fir 36 hrs

I think letting it sit in hot oil for a few hrs as it cools is plenty....

Ya I do a 11/13 flower too, seems good , but makes sense that it helps buds like Doc says

I had been adding it before the "cook" but I am not seeing any of the signs of it "making it hit faster". So I am going to try afterwards the next time I make more oil.

Does that help with buds revegging? Seems to be a problem for me using HPS, I cut down down from 650 to 450w output and it usually rights itself after a day but think I might be losing out on potency and/or yield

Not sure it will help with that Joe, are you referring to Fox tailing??? If they re-veg, make sure and check for light leaking

No, it's not foxtailing. Towards the end of flowering more sugar leaves start to sprout, usually on plants that have bigger singular colas after failed FIMs.

I drop down from 650w to 450w for the last two days before 'darkness falls' before harvest. Seems to do the trick but thought I might be missing out on something.

Thank you for your time anyway buddy. Garden is looking good

Good info, thanks my friend

Soaking in Vans h202/water
f4a0a329822790babdb4a71dc227fb57.jpg


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

Cross yer fingers

Hopes are high today Bud Heads

I had 9 kilamanjaro seeds in water
4 in black tea
5 in RO water

I scruffed them pretty good, held em and rubbed the edge on sandpaper as best I could

Been in the water about 30+ hrs, not really sure, may be closer to 40

2 in black tea have cracked
At least 2 in RO water have cracked
All in paper towels, in ziplock, on heating pad

So we shall see, there may be hope after all

Ya...I'll have a zillion plants soon....lol
 
So Scorpioenstiens Genetically Engineered Strains will be doing a revamp of our processes

Seems I'm a little to free with my pollen......lol
Noticed the other GDP is pregnant.
I know it from collection if pollen and stuck on my shirt or pants

My processes will be as tight as a nuclear lab moving forward


Fun fun fun
 
Watching football and thinking

ACDC girls will be ready to pollinate in about a week
ACDC pollen will probably start tomorrow
GDP is too far along to hit with ACDC this run, but two seeds are germing now

I have 3 very strong ACDC girls. Will save one for smoking, and probably use the other two for seeds.
So I'll be crossing ACDC with the following pollen very soon.

ACDC, creating more seeds
GDP
ATF
Kilimanjaro

Should be some fun strains and hopefully HIGH CBD and 15% or more THC

Cannatonic will come down soon, she is sitting letting her seeds from ATF and kilamanjaro develope more.
Then it's waiting game, kilamanjaro to finish, the seedlings to take off, Star Pupil will land Tuesday and she will go right into germination

Gunna be a busy few months

Don't feel bad. My Kilimanjaro failed also. Good will come soon enough I have 9 more I could try to pop.

I have two Elephant Candy going now, bout 18 days old, kilamanjaro x Candida....it popped real easy....go figure...lol
 
Good morning Bud Heads

We have ACDC spunk.....few flowers popped this AM

He is a very strong boy, think he will breed some sweet babies

Kilamanjaro seeds are next to check in the paper towels.

The GDP girls are showing a bit of burnt tips. Gunna try and flush em both good today or tomorrow, think today is water day so probably today

The solo kids are REALLLLLLL slow but the dirt girl is doing better so far

Pics later.... coffee time now
