Just driving by.. You are running outta room,,, but kind of looks like she's done and starting to 'head' up?? I got one of the 16"x36"x5' tents,, has to be the most used tent I ever own.. She's starting to show it,, after 15 years?
You know that's one of the most overlooked parts of a breeding program, is you really need to grow a run of males to find the best father''''''' because he does partake half of the genetic mix. And like his counterpart,, he has different phenos,
but I do understand,, most people don't have that luxury of a nice sectional greenhouse out back.. Hense what I said,, the most overlooked.. Mainly by necessity.
Looks sharp MisterK. GL with them taller ones.. You going to need every inch.......

You are correct! I am running (or, maybe ran?) out of room!
I do think she's about finished with the stretch and I've been LST'ing the taller colas, but she's still really too close to the lights so I'm expecting to see some light burn on the tallest buds. It should be good for the canopy penetration, though! 
I agree 420% on the males AND the issues with lack of space. Compound that with the fact that I'm breeding in that small cabinet and, well...
That being said, I'm going to treat the males like the females in that, I'll keep popping the reg seeds and keep cloning & keeping the "keepers" so I can use them for breeding.
Very proud of you Krip! 
they're making it pretty hard! 
...must. be. strong....

APRICOT JELLY #1 LOOKS LIKE ANOTHER MALE! 
It's very early on this one, but I do see signs of balls!
79XB's #1 & #2 both appear to be female and it's really too early to tell on the others, yet; but, if I had to guess, I'd say the Black Cherry Jelly and Apricot Jelly #2 are both female.
Happy Harvests!

TALK ABOUT A "FRANKENSTRAIN"!
When I topped the Black Cherry Jelly a couple of weeks ago, there were enough nodes that I split it into two cuttings. I was just checking the top and noticed it was already putting out 11-fingered leaves:
I was pretty impressed since, even the mom (which is now in the breeding cabinet being sexed) is pretty young to be putting out 11-fingered leaves.
So, I started doing some research on it's lineage and was pretty surprised by what I found....
First, Black Cherry Jelly is a cross between Black Cherry Punch and Jelly Breath BX1. Sounds pretty simple, right?
OK...let's start with the Black Cherry Punch side....
The lineage I have for BCP is:
((Black Cherry Punch x 501st OG) x Cherry Pie) x Black Cherry Soda
So, first thing is how the hell do you have Black Cherry Punch in the lineage of Black Cherry Punch?
I understand back-crossing, but the way it's expressed in the formula doesn't look like a back-cross.
OK...so let's just move on...
Cherry Pie is: Granddaddy Purple x Durban Poison
Granddaddy Purple is: Purple Urkle and Big Bud
Purple Urkle is believed to be a select phenotype of Mendocino Purps
Big Bud is: Afghani x Northern Lights x Skunk #1
501st OG is: Skywalker OG x Rare Dankness #1
Rare Dankness #1 is: Ghost OG x Chemdawg
Then, I started working the Jelly Breath BX1 (mother) side of the Black Cherry Jelly lineage....
Jelly Breath BX1 is: Mendo Breath x Goliath
Mendo Breath is: OGKB x Mendo Montage
Mendo Montage is: Mendo Purps x Crystal Locomotive
Crystal Locomotive is: Trainwreck x '98 Aloha White Widow
Goliath is: Power Plant x Lowryder
That's where I stopped!
I'm thinking it's probably safe to use the Snake Oil on this one!
Happy Harvests!

Most of these strain of the month are like that though. They wonder why these plants produce so many different phenotypes!
Holy schnikes that's some cross! I need some Landrace strains in my life,ha!
I just saw in house post that BCP is back in stock and the cross is, Black Cherry Pie X Purple Punch

Hmmm... on that "leafy" sight IHG's Black Cherry Punch is listed as Blackberry Kush x Black Cherry Pie. I trust IHG more, but it appears different sites list it with different lineages and ALL specify IHG as the breeder! - Thread starter

If I had to guess, I'd say my first guess was wrong!
It's kinda disappointing because I was gonna run the AJ's & BCJ's together in the next run in the main tent but I have no females and I'm not about to start popping any more seeds, at this point!
One of the two Zephyrus looks female, so I may run that with the Platinum Cake in the main tent and then do a couple of the 79XB's in the small tent.
As with everything else, all plans are subject to change, but those appear to be the current stock of females that have yet to be run.
That site is typically wrong when they list lineages. In House is typically straight forward about their crosses. It does get hard though because they just mash poly hybrids together hoping for the best. They do produce some frost monsters which is nice but stability is not always top notch and who knows how many phenos you can expect to find.
Kind of why I feel there are only 3 kinds of weed bad, good, and better. Nobrains-noheadaches.
Too many names out there.............. And I got tired of the headaches.... Sure I like to look at the lineage of my herbs.. But what's bad is they all start from a 'probable' parent. If that one probably is wrong,, the whole line is wrong.......... But then we will never know will we? But least in the last 20 years or so,, peoples been keeping up on what they throw into the genetic soup..

Good morning 'Woody'....i agree with that word you just used..."SOUP". That's about the size of it eh! Oh check out this new strain...it's @!#$% X @#$%^, X #$%^&! 25 possible pheno's...BAHHH!
A great non example of this would be the 'Maple Leaf Indica ' i grew out a few years ago from Sensi Seeds Dropped four reg. seeds...got 4 females and they all looked IDENTICAL. This is refered to as being 'homongenous'....wat all breeders should be trying to accomplish with their breeding the 'soup' programs....Cheers bud, and have a great day and Easter would ya!
