Welcome All My Friends To The Show That Never Ends - Canna M & Nismo12 Team Up!

[Heirloom]

Oh yes, it worked well.

Did you get pentahydrate or anhydrous Sodium Thio?

Mix part A and part B and keep them in separate glass jars in the fridge. Bagged and labeled. Mix small quantities of the two as needed. Mixed solution seems to be good for a month at least. Separate A and B solutions.....? Indefinite maybe?

I've added a drop or two of a surfactant too, with no noted ill effects on efficacy.

For my 12" indica we used about 20-25ml of solution each spray. Drench the area totally. So you can see you really don't need to mix a lot, especially diluted at least 5:1. I used 1 gram silver n the first time, and I'm still using that first mix. 1 DDA, 1 BD and 1 FP reversed, and still have lots left.

I bought enough materials for a life time, maybe more.

**Auto Update Time**

Its been a few days since I've updated about them. I'm really proud of how they big they are getting! I'll start off with Dutch Passion Durban Poison.

Up next is Heavyweight Wipeout Express Auto. She is such a cute little baby!

This is our newborn. She is Fast Buds Fast Berry. She's so tiny. Shhh Baby is sleeping.

The next girl is Dinafem Critical + Auto. We have let her stretch and I think she will start bulking up quickly.

Here is the stunning Green Crack Auto Shante. She is packing some dense buds on for us.

Up next is the tall lanky Dark Devil Auto. We wanted to see what a non topped plant would look like all grown up. She sure is a tall Drink of water! I added a little foot porn for you Duggan. Lol!

Here is the Heavyweight Fast and Vast Auto. We had higher hopes for her, maybe she will bulk up and give us a zip or two. One can dream, cant they? Lol!

**Twinning**

And last but not least is the CKS Purple Kush Photo Reveg. I get to train her as I wish and post pics of her. I really like how tall she is getting, and how her center is filling out.

This is all I have for now. Nis will be around in a bit to post some nugs that are glistening with those resinous tri's.



Have a great afternoon friends!

 

[dirt mcgert]

nice auto work. Reveg is looking great.

 

[Duggan]

Hey you guys...just back from a BBQ. Checking in....didn'
t know you were growing DP's Durban Poison. Nice ...very nice tasting , 100% Sativa from South Africa. She's a good choice...you guys grown her before? She's a strain everyone likes the taste of...especially me.... Not a very high THC strain...quite low actually but the special combo of the high CBD's , the rush from the 100% Sat. and the great taste make it a fav. of mine. Cheers ....gonna watch her a lil now!
Goota move on a bit....later .

In the veg room I topped the Dark Angel at day 12 and it was the 4th set of true leaves.

Then here are the climate conditions over the last 24 hours

Then making good time 4 days from start of germination to popping out of the soil our Pineapple Express Auto. Here we go!

That's what we have going on tonight. We have to head down and change the water in the reservoir for the DWC and hand out 3 feedings in flower. Hope everyone has a wonderful night and ill make sure we get our rounds in tonight. See everyone here in a bit! Stay classy.

Shes our first Durban Poison. I think she will give us a good yeild too! So glad to hear the taste is good. What does she taste like?

 

[SweetSue]

I see you noticed my Marilyn Tat. We knew you would be the one to notice it, then sue. Lol!!! Thanks for stopping by mon!

Yes, I did notice. Sweet work.

Dutch Passion's Durban Poison is definitely a sativa-dominant strain - but it is not 100% sativa. Some seedbanks might state otherwise, but Dutch Passion (who certainly should know) will tell you different if you inquire. Even their product description page for Durban Poison states "During the breeding process some unknown indica genetics have been crossed with Durban."

I would not expect to see high CBD percentages with a 100% sativa. Or a relatively short flowering time (around nine weeks?), either, for that matter.

I'm not knocking the strain, BtW. I just wanted to mention that it does have some percentage of indica genes in it.

I thought Durban poison was one of the original landrace strains. I know it's an auto so it has been crossed before and I don't doubt that somewhere and indica made an appearance.

Durban Poison was created by Mr Ed Rosenthal himself. He collected a bunch of seeds on a trip to South Africa. He didn't cultivate it until returning to his home in the U.S. That is where Durban Poison was born and named in honour of port Durban in SA. There were rumours that initially he named it Pinetown Poison for a town near the coast but he chose Durban for whatever reason. They're a stones throw from each other. Most certainly Sativa dominant. It isn't a landrace strain though. At least not to my knowledge. I wasn't familiar that an Auto variety Of Durban Poison existed but I imagine it would have been crossed to a Ruderalis not an Indica.. maybe a Ruderalis/Indica cross?

Speaking of DP I love how you are both doing so far. Your plants look stellar!

I know I've probably asked you before, nismo, and I apologize, I'm a bit of a stoner. What breeder is your OG Kush from? Dinafem?

 

[TorturedSoul]

I thought Durban poison was one of the original landrace strains.

It was originally a South African landrace... decades ago (late '1970s, IIRC). Now I suppose it is what one would call a "worked line." It has been years since I read about its history, but IF I am recalling correctly, it goes something like this: Back in the '70s, Ed Rosenthal was in South Africa looking for new (to him) genetics. He found an early-finishing variety (and by that, I mean "early" for an equatorial sativa, lol) and took a bunch of seeds back to the states. When he started growing them out, he saw a wide variation in characteristics. He (in)bred them in order to choose/fix the traits that he favored. At some point, he gave a bunch of seeds from the plants that he was growing (not the original seeds, but the seeds of the offspring of the offspring of...) to Mel Frank. Mel did basically the same thing, choosing for shorter flowering times and trichome production. He ended up with two main phenotypes, IIRC. At some point, Mel gave a bunch of seeds from one of those phenotypes (the one that wasn't his favorite ) to that @sshole Sam the Skunkman.

Now this must have been at about the time when Sam got busted in 1982, turned narc and rolled on the Haze Brothers (RiP, Sacred Seeds :sad: ) so he could quickly make bail (faster than anyone else... hours instead of days, hmm?), go back to the grow site and retrieve his seeds / plants / equipment, and do a runner to Europe, because he ended up in Amsterdam and he ended up working the line some more - again focusing on shortening the flowering time and trying to come up with something that would flourish outdoors in the Dutch climate. IIRC, those seeds were being sold at the time by the seedbank that would later become Sensi Seeds (one of our sponsors *EDIT:* BtW, they still sell a version of this strain... which, oddly enough, happens to be cheaper than Dutch Passion's version - and, in terms of Sensi Seeds' strains, quite the bargain at less than half the cost of some of their strains; those seeds are non-feminized, though (which some would consider to be a good thing) ). I think everyone that had/sold Durban seeds around that era and later worked the line just a little bit more. I have no doubt that there was some breeding with an indica "or two" here and there, because it seems like everyone was attempting to introduce typical indica characteristics (shorter flowering times, visible resin production, et cetera). But it also appears that most everyone did attempt to retain many of the characteristics that made it a fine, sativa strain. Personally, I feel that - if you wish to find such fine sativa characteristics, you're ahead to just get a large space, add approximately ten bazillion watts' worth of strong light, and learn to live with 16-20+ week flowering times and less (IOW, non-indica) yields, lol... You can cross a rocket with a jet airplane and blast into the stratosphere - but me, I'd rather fly to the stars :lol: . Still, if you demand indica flowering times, Dutch Passion's Durban Poison is probably one of the better strains that you could choose.

I know it's an auto so it has been crossed before and I don't doubt that somewhere and indica made an appearance.

Oh. OOPS, lol. I wasn't aware that you two were discussing an auto-flowering version of Durban Poison. I was not even aware that such a strain existed (although, in retrospect, it doesn't surprise me, since that seems to be the trend these days). I fear that I have zero knowledge in that regard. All of the information I typed above is in reference to the "original" (so to speak) non-automatic strain. Apologies.

Did you get any of my famous BBQ sauce Canna has the recipe...warning label needed it is spicy!!

You are correct.

I have the recipe, but still need to round up some of the ingredients. Lol! I'll make it soon. Thanks again for your recipe!!

Thanks for the history on that strain! It's really cool how you tracked it to way back when. What would you suggest a good couch lock auto would be?
