mr.king to be honest with you I've never finished/harvested a grow of my own only guided my brother in growing for us , because of the high prices of purchasing your meds to smoke or 3ml oils and also seeds not as easy to come by as I'd like so I've narrowed down my list to 3 strains that I want to concentrate on. Also we are not going a full harvest as to purchase is a 4 hr round trip and expensive per gram indoor or outdoor and gas for the car.....
I've been following
@SweetSue dark devil auto thread and that is no.1 on my list, number 2 is a strain that I haven't seen mentioned on this forum is the GG Allin strain by Southern Star seeds and it's quoted to be a 100% indica and a total knockout which will do well for my meds and my sister in law who has Crohn's disease.
The third and final 1 is gorilla glue auto by gorilla glue I'll get the info in a bit but it's medical properties are powerful and Crohn's is one of the ailments listed under medical properties.
The infamous ATF is another strain but is out of reach at the moment, cbd wise I want the candida as I get it here without much hassle...
And until recently in an agreed unanimous decision by my smoking circle ( my brother, his missus and myself ) this granny's balls I've been talking about that my friends grows his " strain " is really amazing...
It's only known parent was Road Kill Skunk according to the grower and it's was grown indoors, it ended up having a seed or 5 from a random pollen fairy... Ever since then he's grown out the female and crossed with whatever was in proximity whether it was a calculated pollination or random.
My brothers been speaking about ang finally we have got our hands on some " granny's balls " grown outdoors in a shaded tunnel set up... I'm holding on too 25 seeds for a project cause that same purchase we purchased 5 grams of indoor grown Sour Power OG. We have grown 1 OGK by dinafem full term but it was mediocre and cause we didn't unsterstand the whole trichs story it was average smoke........
So driving home and I rolled a phat sour power my brother admitted the next day he didn't remember the 2 hour drive home the night before, well we were impressed let me tell you....
So that's another interesting project I want to work towards is a cross between sour power and granny's using CS or silver thilosulfate and if all fails I will naturally wait for her to stress ....
We don't have access here in South Africa to even a quarter of the products that most of you guys have available to you within a week or even 24hrs if needs be, but that's our lot and we work with what we have available to us do a LOS soil using certain products like Neem/Karanga cake and crustacean meal but the help I've been given and ingredients that I can obtain and work with im my attempt at my first LOS soil attempt in the next month, I've seen the proof that this soil mix without those ingredients using what we have available here in South Africa. I could easily point all of you in the right direction to the proof I mention I've seen from these members that you use this platform as well from South Africa but I want prove myself among my peers that I look up to on this forum and I'd like to also show any fellow country man that we can also do a good proven organic soil is possible without having to resort to often costly imports for certain products.
I'm not having a whinge by any means at all, I just feel very strongly about implementing what I've learnt from all of you using ingredients that are available to me.
I can honestly say I can't recall actually saying on my journal at any time " hey feel sorry me " I'm a cripple with a really bad back........ hell NO I just want to learn and grow, you guys have guided me and I hope I gained the respect of those of you that I physically make an effort to follow your journals no matter how long they are but it's cause I respect you guys and value your input.
I also realize how busy all of you are juggling work/growing your meds and dealing with the world wide events regarding cannabis it's amazing and I get to share it with....
My apologies as I'm not sure whose journal I'm on or if it's my own and I can't be bothered to check right now but I like you guys and want you to share in my triumphs as I have shared in yours.....
There's a cpl bid fish that I'm still getting round to getting a bit more comfortable with as you are all vey unique each in their your own way, you know where my garden is if you've ever come across it , messy yard eva.......
So please come join and share the next big step in my adventure
@TorturedSoul I was very wary of you but thanks to sweetsue among others I've come to understand you and feel confident to tag you, so that just goes to show you that this interest we all share overcomes all forms of of obstacles....
And others whose quirky views on life I've come to appreciate as it helps me grow and broaden my horizons and reevaluate my outlook on life going forward and I'm almost sure this phrase you all use " no pics, no proof or you haven't done it " is an awsome resolution to work towards for me or you guys doesn't matter what the objective is, it's about sharing,caring and learning.......
You've all been there at that point in your life somewhere in your journal where you've reached this point I've I've reached today...
So thanks for your ongoing friendship and advice and I can't wait to start paying it forward which is I something I learnt from my time living in America.....
Good day Smeegs! Hope things are beautiful in your part of the world.
I want to visit someday
