Tead's Indoor-ish, Winter, Hempy, OGK, SOG

See? In my world that girl would have come down yesterday. :laughtwo:

Those pictures are excellent. I believe I'll look at those macro lenses for the iPhone. It gets a little dicey sometimes with my little 10x loupe. :laughtwo:

I've been meaning to ask, what chemovar do you reach for most frequently? Do you have morning vs evening preferences? In truth, I've only been smoking good cannabis for three years. I don't consider anything prior to my coming to 420 Magazine worth comparing. I'm just now beginning to distinguish the subtleties of the strains and now that I've grown a wider selection I'm beginning to notice distinct preferences. This is still all so new to me. I've spent the past three years just enjoying the ability to smoke at will, so getting high and staying there were the overriding concerns.

Now the daughter's meds are pretty much set, and my own preferences are as well. I have all these other bits and pieces of harvests that I'll incorporate into medicine, but I'm fascinated by what we reach for most of the time, when we have the freedom to do so. For me that's Carnival, the standard I judge all others against. I don't think it's possible for me to grow enough Carnival. :laughtwo:

It makes it challenging to get variety into the grow when I already have 5 plants that stay in continual rotation with only 5 spaces to drop them into for flowering. Yes I know..... the solution is to increase yields. Working on that as we speak. :cheesygrinsmiley:
 
dam tead nice triche shots u got there i wish i was able to get shots like that the best i got is using my loup and my cell phone camera lol it takes me 8million pics just to get one or two worth keeping and they still arent close to as gud as those shots u got there nice and crisp lookn pics and even better triches good job man
 
Yikes pollen,,,,,,,, run away........................... It's something in the air... My GSC has afew seed from I don't know where.. Nice macro shots there Tead.

Hey Tead, question my friend

On your taller 6" pots, how do you keep them growing fast....
meaning do u water more often so roots get nutes?
Multiple holes to bring resevour higher up for roots?

I'm doing some DDAs and am debating on creating a Frankenstein bucket. Taller so she can really grow before she Autos out

Thanks my friend
 
So I decided to really go and look him over and I found the culprit all the way at the bottom was a cluster of opened nanners and pollen everywhere but it was hidden in the frost of my plants without really lookn i missed it plus he was putting out fairly nice sized buds at first till the rest started over growing him i thought he was a she lol so yea i kept him in my garden flower room bathroom so the rest of the beans could finish developing and maybe even get some bud i can make hash out of so a win win in my case since he didn't pollinate any of my other plants and only himself and if he did get any of my others it can't be alot since the buds are all bulking up on them so I won't mind a few seeds but yea i cudnt believe none of the others got hit by it

So.... I've been pretty nonchalant about the pollen spewing male. I suspect there will be many genetic surprises in my near future, but I do love the idea of crossing the squat plants with the tall Malawi. UD and OGK are the 2 obvious combos... but Tead welcomes the unknown opportunities afoot in his world.

The female of the Malawi strain seems about 1/2 - 2/3 the height of the male, and I have enough room in my world for one or two of those, so I'll self cross the strain as well.
I don't tend to collect too many seeds as I can only really use them for less than 1/2 the year. Clones work year round except slow way down in winter. Of course, I like to share with my buddies... so creating some seeds of my own is attractive none the less. One wonders what would happen if I were to drop like thousands of seeds over some large area... utter chaos... I like the idea. Perhaps a chopper ride with Tead on the skid tossing beans as I laugh like the happiest idiot in the world.

Dreams r fun!

It's a good rule of thumb to cross two totally different genotypes. You can come up with the most vibrant prodigy that way. Hmm usually you cross indica males with sativa female, but even more importantly you should have at least one more or less stabilised variety if you wanna pin your traits in F1 easier. This may be an exciting cross with Malawi x UD Boom as parents. I've been thinking about it too, but more with UD as a father... but you never know :) :passitleft:

A touch of amber... maybe 5%. Plenty of cloudy ones... some still clear. Gonna wait more.

Those are looking great Tead. I'm waiting on my last 2 stilton specials to finish, then I might be tempted to throw some SSDC into the mix before my season ends. I'm getting nightly lows around 60deg in the 4x4 which should give some nice color. Now to try and hang the hps and raptor hood in it as well. :biglaugh:
 
Good gawd... you folks are full 'o words!

Never enough room... never enough lights... never enough AC.... colors that paint the background of a grower's world ehh?
Pull her you say.... OK. I need the room.
I use a little USB microscope thingy hooked to the USB port on my PC. There are ones that connect to phones too. They run about $20.
I tend towards whatever's coming out of the machine mostly, but I feed it dark, evil plant genetics on the input side and hope for the same coming out. I'm shooting for different targets than you... I want to sink deeply into the couch. The UD has been making me a touch too sleepy lately, but many other's are in the works.

Thanks! Yup... drop 20 big ones on a usb microscope... they work really well.

Damn.... I might have to think here. Lemme go getta bowl....

A franken-bucket might be an idea for an auto... with a few different holes at different levels. One could drill them as the plant grows even.
I use 12" tall pots as my standard. They allow the water from the bottom to wick up and keep the entire mass moist. This seems to fall off in some 24" tall pots I've been trying. If you grew with different hole levels and worked your way down as the plant roots grow, it might allow for a really big auto.
All theoretical... proof would be welcome.

I'm currently on a every 2 day watering schedule. During the humid summer months I can get to 3 days. I'm doing Osmocote+ grows instead of liquid nutrients, but I'd be feeding with every watering if I were.

Awesome info! I'm totally new to any real breeding, so every concept is newish.
I have 3 UD seedlings... perhaps I'll see a UD male.

I've been really bouncing around on my night time lows. Seen nights of 70's and some down to 50's. Lights on temps are usually in the 70's/80s. Perhaps I'll see some more. The Ox's do some purple and I have plenty of those going.... plus, I'll be putting down some more SSDC's and they're nice and red. Luvs me sum red!
 
That SSDC looks great! I've got some osmo+ and a few auto seeds to try out on the patio in a month or so, hopefully I took good enough notes from your journal. .

By ssdc are u meaning sweetsue devils carnival? Also I was wondering about that with the hole idea with drilling it as the tap root grows make the hole alil deeper. But my question is if it's an auto don't they judge how big they will get by how long the tap root goes b4 it is stoped? If so when wud u know when to put another hole?

Oh gawd... don't make me look. I knew if I showed it someone would ask. While I dreaded the moment, I'm too lazy to go digging for the correct answer and I know that the answer will be covered by friends shortly... so I'll just let that one hang. I know it's not named for Sue... but the neurons have been challenged for many years now.

Your last questions form the "You bet your life!" current question. Could it be done by time? Could one build a pot with an observation panel? If sacrificing virgins would help, I'l be happy to help disqualify the timid.
Honestly... I dunno, but my current idea is to overcome the dryness at the top with daily watering and just let the roots go as normal.

SSDC, Sweet & Sour Devil's Crack. DDA reversed for pollen to impregnate a Mephisto Sour Crack. Produced in the lab at The Roost. I've been smoking on it for the last week or so. :passitleft:

Crazy cold... setting records. Tead's pipes are frozen except for the bathroom cold.

Check out the outdoor H/L. This was outside in a very protected area.

Dam tead did the cold break ur hygrometer? That is way to cold 4 me i like barley leave my house during the winter lol but that's mostly cause I have like bad reactions to cold my hand literly sweep and stiffn up to the point I can barley close them let alone the agony im in all my joints and shit stiffn up swell and hurt like a mother when I get cold so I got it like 85 in my house lol my grandparents when they come into my part of the house are like man u have it on old man temps in here lmao im like what is old man temps haha.

Nope... humidity numbers reflect reality. Crazy, but quite common this time of year when the cold fronts move thru.
I'm still quite mobile, but the joints do remind me of past experiences when the mercury falls. Nothing a little aspirin doesn't resolve.


The wheels continue rolling... cold or hot.

A little closeup on an Ox (OGK x unknown... probably UD1). It will be the next harvest.

Omg man that looks so good and man those fox tails are the thickest chunks of pistals coming in like that that I have ever seen lol god dam I love hempy growing and 2day im starting my dwc bucket and guna try and do 2 red poison autos in a 5 gal. Bucket and hopefully I can pull some good results atleast i hope to get more then a half oz or 1 i would like 2 get 2 oz that would be ok for me then that would mean an ounce per plant and thats ok i spose for an auto lol i would like to get a couple oz per plant like i see some people pulling off autos so idk hoping for the best but willing to except well still only my best lol haha and yea i feel yea i have numerous health issues so my doctors have me on fentanyl patches and oxycodone but I feel over the years its now creating other problems so I asked to see if i could cut down and all of a sudden there whole way they acted towards me and how they would treat me changed for the worse they started calling me a liar all of a sudden and changing out the words I would say and say I said things I didn't idk it just got to be a huge problem it seemed as long as i kept taking all there pills and always excepted when my doctor wanted to up my meds ive never had to ask for my meds to be upped my doctor just made it keep getting higher doses and when I was a kid growing up i was like hell yea but now that I'm an adult and I relize all the damage it causes and im trying to get healthy that I wanted to lower and eventually get off and just use mmj but as soon i told my doc no to my script being upped they lost it lol there not doctors any more there dam drug pushers.

But yea bro those plants look so good im currently doing some ultra dog and bluedream hempy style of course so hopefully they turn out as good as urs i jus got my new sponsored light from growant yesterday and have it up and running and thats a 400w led in a mars hydro tent 2.4 foot x 2.4 foot so hopefully they turn out to be some stunners lol so far they are growing strong and healthy.
