Right after I clear my own out.
It's cold here. Could be from that.Too Funny , Alright now VGs plant has purple veins , Are you feeding grape juice ? Thats a nasty looking BUG up close , Damn good thing they don't get human size
There is a report of some sort of purple strain in the mix too so it could also be genetic.
I'm of the opinion that spiders get big enough already.

Nice intro. I've been in and out for a few months with only infrequent updates to my own journal. I'm following along here... nice to see this new(?) thing being tested...Greetings fellow growers!
I hope y'all can join us while we grow and learn together.
A few months back I was perusing the @Weed Seeds Express online catalogue when a very special strain caught my eye. Doug's Varin.
It's one that I have wanted for a few years but couldn't find anywhere, until now.
I first heard of it's existence a few years ago through a post here at 420 Mag. It is a strain that was well sought for but trying to obtain it was next to impossible.
I mentioned the possibility of a future grow focusing on this special strain and it high THCV content. This instantly piqued the interest of many growers, most notably,my good friend @InTheShed . He just happened to be looking for a special strain at the time. One to address some specific health and wellness aspects of his family members. This strain was a good fit for what he was looking for.
The timing was perfect.
Speaking with Shed about the possible benefits of this strain quickly morphed into doing a joint grow. We've both been working with the folks @Weed Seeds Express for over a year now. Both of us are very pleased with their genetics and customer service.
Thank you again @Weed Seeds Express !!

Doug's Varin is reported to contain very high levels of of the cannabinoid THCV.
THCV is said to have various beneficial effects such as..
Appetite suppression, improving bone density, blood sugar regulation among others.
Unfortunately, there isn't a lot of information about THCV and all that we can offer you is what we've been able to glean between various online articles. Many were anecdotal, contradictory, vague or outright confusing.
With this in mind we will do our best to bring forth the most accurate information possible.
We hope to give you a clearer picture once we've harvested and tried it.
Shed and I dropped our seeds last Thursday and they both came up yesterday.
My Varin sprout yesterday.
And here she is today.
I went ahead and grabbed Shed's too.
These are pics are both day #1 before and after planting.
So grab a seat and let's have a chat!
A special thank you to @InTheShed for growing along with me. Thank you for being a fantastic mentor and friend.

Thanks for checking out our grow,Schnookie.
I haven't seen too many folks grow this one yet. It's going to be fun to share our findings.

Wow. She's big.Helllloooooooooooooooo....
My little twerp is picking up her pace under her Nextlight. She is now at 8" tall from crown to tip.
And every leaf is perfect! Remember, this is only an exhibition, not a competition. Please...no wagering.

Oh heavens no.And every leaf is perfect! Remember, this is only an exhibition, not a competition. Please...no wagering.
Not a competition at all.
It is quite a bit of fun to see the difference between our two plants.
Just out of curiosity.
How tall is your gal?
A shade under 17".

When are you topping?
When are you topping?
Above the 9th when there's room for the double H stump. It's on the 8th + stump now. You?

I think I'll wait until you do yours.
I was going to do it in a day or two.
Yours should be close by then.
Not a biggie for me to wait a day or two if I have to.
These are both growing along very sweetly
Highya VG, ITS, guys,
I'm loving this comparison grow. Doug's Varin is a nice looking form it seems. And you both are doing very well with the growth! I like ITS' lady because of her form and willingness to grow so well. VG, yours is such a pretty shade of green and that Nexlight will have her caught up in no time! Very fun comparison!! Happy Smokin'

Thanks you two! It's nice to have you along for the ride with comments like those.
Aw shucksThanks you two! It's nice to have you along for the ride with comments like those.
All rainy on the western front, so indoor pics today on day 43. There's been 1" of growth since transplant on Saturday, and it's almost ready for topping:
Since the 9th node is in, I will top it as soon as I have enough growth above that, to leave the double H stump. Could be as early as tomorrow:
Hang tight VG, the scissors is getting sharpened!
