Weekly Update: Clone Cuttings and Veg Shelf - Saturday, December 9, 2017
It's nice and quiet over here these days. I've been starting more seeds lately and holding off on cuttings. I'll be taking a cutting from CBD CC 2.7 tomorrow.
My cup 'o cuttings is starting to show the beginnings of rooting.
I haven't done anything other than replenish the water and leave them alone.
Devil's Carnival 1.3 has yet to show roots. I refreshed the CO2 and sealed her up again.
We gained a little more space when CBD CC 2.7 moved into the slot vacated by her mother. All day long I considered putting the Jamaican in there instead, but I developed alternate plans for her.
Chem Dawg (Day 40, 22 of them in this pot). Today was her final drink of the medium range of veg nutrients, taking 10 ml of A & B with 4 ml of Energy per gallon of water, with the 2 tsp of CaliMagic that gets added to every gallon of water used for the hempies. HB soil girls don't need the CaliMagic. The soil community takes care of all the plant's needs.
This is an extraordinary plant. I'll only need to grow one a year, so I may hit either J or Hash Hound up for a clone when it's time to replenish the stores. Ill enjoy watching her perform her dance under the lights while I have her around.
CBD Critical Cure 3 (Day 6) Still a very little one, busy growing those roots that'll support all the buds.
She has had nothing since being planted.
There's something exciting about the start of a new genetic line. I've been cloning so consistently for the past year that it's a thrill to have seedlings again.
Alaskan Thunderfuck (Day 0) No sign of movement yet.
Carnival 4.6 (Day 27, 8 of them in soil) She's taking her time getting started. I don't know what she has planned.
I've grown enough Carnival to know she'll snap out of this and get big and gorgeous like her mom.
She's had nothing since the drink of plain water on the 1st.
She's on the verge of something big, can't you see it? Lol!
Malawi 1.2 (Day 40, 22 in the pot) Like Chem Dawg, she's getting 10 ml of A & B with 4 ml of Energy per gallon of water. She's starting to get aggressive. I'll be transplanting her this week into something either deeper or wider. I haven't decided which pot to offer her.
This pot isn't going to give her the best run, I'm afraid. Before long she'd be seriously cramped.
Jamaican 1.1 (Day 51, 44 in soil) I'm having a difficult time not trying to contain her.
I promised myself I'd let her go a little wild, so I could see what she wants to do. Then we can come to agreement on what'll work in my spaces.
I was considering poles around the perimeter like I did with Malawi, but her branches are as strong as a deciduous tree.
There's no bending these branches the way you might some other chemovar.
That open space in the center makes me nervous.
I'll find some way to make her fill it all in. I'll be clipping the growing tips off the leaders until the center is full enough to suit me. I have enough on hand to take a little more time, if necessary.
The Jamaican has turned out to be the chemovar that lights up all the daughter's circuits. She came over today with eyes bright in anticipation for another taste. Yesterday she had brownie already in the system and didn't feel like she got a decent feel for what the Jamaican was offering, although she knew she liked it. Today she held off on her brownie dose to start the day with Jamaican.
She sat down, fired up the vaporizer, took the first draw and noticable relaxed with a "F**k yeah!" I watched with a smile as she proceeded to enjoy three more draws in a way I'd never seen her react. I've grown a lot of cannabis hoping to get this reaction from her, and it took a trip to Jamaica and bringing back a seed I'd never be able to purchase. You tell me the universe isn't in my corner.
I'd speculated that it might not be a sativa, given the effect she displayed yesterday, but she tells me that's not the case. This chemovar hits her simultaneously with both sativa vibration, clarity, and focus, and the relaxation she'd come to expect from indicas. The indicas relieved her anxiety, but they were turning her into a lazy stoner. She'd get high enough to relieve the anxiety but then lacked focus to get anything done. With the Jamaican she has absolute relaxation and crystal-clear focus. Now she can get back to her artwork.
She assures me I could still try it out, because it might be mine after all, but I think I'll be happy with Carnival and all the DC I have on hand and leave it for her. We search and search for a plant that'll do exactly what I've been watching happen with her, that perfect balance with the personal system. It makes me a little envious that even Carnival doesn't hit me that synergistically.
That girl sure is lucky to have SweetSue for a mom.
On to the flowering beauties.
I think she’s looking to sue you SweetSue!!
thanks
At 75 mg of THC per that's suggestive of an ECS asking for a short break. I have so much in my system already it'll be three days before I wouldn't feel it. Lol! Luckily, the protocol only calls for two days of abstinence. 
In her words, "Before cannabis sleep was to be avoided. Uh uh, no way, don't want to even see the bed until I have to. After cannabis it's like "Ohhhhh.... It's bedtime! Yeah!"
