Stanks Switch It Up In 2019

Did a lot of work in the garden today and actually took some time to take a few pics of some stuff in veg. Its been a while since I have really done much with the indoor girls in regards to updates so these are long over due. I will try to get better going forward, especially in the winter months.

Last night I did a few up pots which will be covered in the update today, but I snapped a couple shots of the roots. I know roots don't get the same love that the rest of the plant does but I am really big on roots if you haven't figured that out yet.

I found a few seeds in some buds that a buddy sent me and I really liked the smoke so I popped 4 of them and all 4 sprouted. I have 4 different phenos of it out of the 4 seeds. Three are growing normal to fast while one is kind of a slow poke. I didn't up pot the slow poke (or take pics of her yet). I tried pulling her out of the pot last night but the roots where ready so I will give her another week or two. Here are a couple of the roots of the ones I did up pot.



This strain is a cross of Jellium and Wifi which was pollinated by a mystery plant, so we'll just call them Jelly WiFi +

Of the three that we up potted, I went from half gallon pots into 2 gallon pots on two of them, and on the other one I went from the half gallon into a 5 gallon. I will flip the 5 gallon in 2-3 weeks. The two gallon ones will get a month or so in the two gallon and then go into their final home most likely. Of course I might also decide to flip one in the small pot if I have openings in the flower tents. I always try to have multiple plans in place depending on how the plants grow.

Jelly WiFi + #1 - Veg Day 50

This one is the shorter tighter node pheno. She needs a trim, which I'll get to in the next day or two along with a sulfur burn.





Jelly WiFi + #2 - Veg Day 50

Number 2 is a taller pheno, with similar nodal space to #1. She needs a trip to the salon as well!





Jelly WiFi + #3 - Veg Day 50

Number 3 is another tall pheno but with longer nodal spacing than #2. Thought I took more pics of her but apparently I didn't LOL, oopps.


 
Continuing with the veg tent line up, the next lady is one that should be familiar to most of you. I've been running Black Cherry Punch since 2018 and this is that same cut. She's still a favorite among my crowd so I'll keep her around for another year LOL!!

Black Cherry Punch (Neiko Cut) - In-House Genetics - Veg Day Unknown

I know I used to be pretty detailed with veg dates, but with a back log of clones that were kept small on purpose I just didn't bother tracking it. She grows fast though and will be getting up potted to a 5 gallon pot here this weekend and flipped a couple weeks after that. I have a MOB in flower that will be getting chopped in about 3 weeks and this girl is slated to go into her spot.





Super Lemon Haze (Clone) - Greenhouse Seeds - Veg Day Unknown

Same story on the unknown veg date with this girl. She's currently in a 1 gallon pot where I'll try to keep her for another couple weeks. She's got a sister that was put into a 3 gallon pot and flipped this week. This one will end up going into a 5 gallon pot when I'm ready to move her into flowering.





Killer A5 Haze (Clone) - ACE Seeds - Veg Day Unknown

Here is another familiar one to those that have been with us for a while. She's currently in a 2 gallon pot (been there since September 9th) and is more than ready for her forever home. I just gave her a top dressing with her watering today so she will be good for another 10+ days before she needs to be up potted. I'm likely going to go into a 5 gallon pot with her. She is never pretty in veg, but man does she shine when you set her on fire!! She's also a bit more droopy than normal due to just getting watered.

Alright, last update for the night. These two are from seeds and are new to this journal so lets give them a bit of an intoduction

Gelato (Fem) - Black Skull Seeds - Flip Day 2

This is a cross of Sunset Sherbert and Thin Mint Girl Scout Cookies. Says the flowering times are 8-9 weeks so that means 65+ days to me.

She was up potted to current 5 gallon pot on Oct 25 and has really taken off. She was vegged for a total of 75 days before getting flipped.






Triple OG (Reg) - Exotic Genetix - Flip Day 2

Triple OG is a three way cross of Triangle OG, Constantine, and Master Yoda and is listed as an 80% Indica/20% Sativa for what that is worth LOL. I've had these seeds for a while and figured I would drop one and see if I got lucky with a girl since they are regular seeds. Ms Stank confirmed that it's a she and thats when she got up potted to her 5 gallon pot back on October 25th. I'm really digging the structure on this girl (as well as the Gelato).




 
Highya VS,

Wow! What a lot you have going on!! Keeps it interesting I would imagine! I agree with PW, looking great! Happy Smokin'
 
Everything looking nice and healthy Van!
Thanks brother! Hows things in your tents?

Hey Bode, yeah lots of variety. Keeps things interesting for sure!! Tough when its time to choose the evening smoke though. I find I stand and look at the jars unable to pick lol. Growers troubles!
Sweet update Van! I'm with you on the triple og. She's especially beautiful!

Gracias my friend. I'm crushing on her and the Gelato. Both have fantastic structures.
Girls are looking awesome van great work as usual!!
JGrow, long time no see bud. Thank you! Hope things have been well with you.
 
Going good, I have Chem D, Chem 91, Triangle Kush and Pre 98 Bubba all going plus I’ll flower out a Bandaid Haze and Simply Irresistable once I flip.
I really need to find a good cut of one of the Chem strains. The only one I ever smoked was Chemdawg 4 which was a hammer. I remember waking up on the couch after barely being able get out of the hot tub after smoking it, and having an empty package of oreos on my lap. I think Ms Stank had like 4 oreos and I ate the rest of the entire package. Definitely one of the most potent strains I ever smoked. Of course I was a total weed novice at the time so I'm curious to see how a good one would hit now.
 
Think i will always have room for at least one chem in the garden. I really liked the chem 4 i grew out its ridiculous. The Chem 91 i grew out was pretty intense too. Just popping by to see the garden. Looking healthy per Van Stank standards as usual. Hope you had a good Thanksgiving meal with the family. Cheers. Will be back around to see what you been growing out lately.
 
I know I'm a bit late....but I just wanted to take the time and say Happy Thanksgiving you all of you out there that are gracious enough to visit us here in this slice of cyberland.



We're thankful to have you here along with us on this ride, especially those that weathered multiple journals. We appreciate your time and inputs into making this a small place of sanity for us in an otherwise nutty world. I hope everyone had a wonderful day with their loved ones and enjoyed great food and whatever company you were blessed with this year!

We had a quiet day, just Ms Stank, Ms Stank's Mom, the dogs and myself. Took the dogs for a walk while the turkey cooked, watched a little football and enjoyed a great meal. We're making turkey soup right now....can't even tell you all how great it smells!! Its probably my favorite part of Thanksgiving food.......the SOUP!!:circle-of-love:
 
Now on to a bit of a garden update!!

Despite wanting to not do any plant work today, I did manage to tend to the Flower tent.



In this tent we've got a little bit of everything. From the back left we have MOB (Maine Cut) and back right is Gorilla Glue (Grandpa Tokin cut). In the middle we have the Gelato from Blackskull Seeds along with a small Super Lemon Haze (Greenhouse Seeds) on the right side that you can't really see. In the front left is Garlic Sherbert (In-House Genetics) and front right is Triple OG from Exotic Genetics.

They are being grown under the @NextLight Mega which is putting out about 660 watts from the wall, in a 5'x5' tent with a boxfan. I did snap a few shots of a couple of them.

MOB (Maine Cut Clone) - Flower Day 8

This girl is in a 7 gallon pot and is a bit bigger than she looks in the picture. I keep trimming shoots off her and cutting and cutting and cutting and she doesn't get any thinner looking. Definitely one of the leafiest plants I have ever grown.



Gorilla Glue (Grandpa Tokin Cut) - Flower Day 8

She's in a 7 gallon soft pot and is a bit of a wild and unkempt girl. I haven't done any trimming on her but really need to. Also need to put some bamboo stakes in for some of the taller shoots. This strain needs a bit of support for the buds after about halfway through flower and its easier to put the stakes in earlier than later. I'll try to get to it tomorrow along with a spraying of her.





Garlic Sherbert (In-House Genetics) - Flower Day 8

This lady had the aphids the worst at one point til I got serious and cut a bunch of foliage off and started spraying her regularly, so thats why she looks so tall and skinny. She's been looking pretty much pest free for the last week, but I gotta stay on it!! Otherwise she is a also a bit on the leafy side. She's being grown in a 7 gallon pot as well.



Gelato (Blackskull Seeds) - Flower Day 8

Probably my favorite plant in the tent currently. She's being grown in a 5 gallon pot is definitely on the large size for that size pot. I expect a good yield from her assuming I can keep her healthy. I took cuts off her incase she's a winner.



Triple OG (Exotic Genetics) - Flower Day 8

The runner up for my affection in this tent at this point is this sexy little lady. She's growing in a 5 gallon pot and is a bit smaller than the Gelato. Love her structure almost as much as the Gelato.


 
Gotta love Exotic Genetics I don’t think I’ve grown a bad plant from Mike
You know its funny, I bought about everything they had out at one point and then misplaced the shoebox that had their stock in it. We were cleaning out the bedroom closets this fall and finally found the "Exotic" shoebox. I've got a LOT of their stuff I want to run. Haven't even looked to see if they had any sales today.....no point, more than enough to run for now.
