Guess Who's Coming Back?

Nah it was a different one. I'd have to go look it up again. Total hack job on their web design too. Ah well.


I've hit up a few different places and none of them have all of the strains I want. The Thai is negotiable but I'm having a hard time finding places that have all the strains I want in stock. Attitude doesn't have Jorge's Diamonds #1 at the moment, which is the new one I'm most eager to try out.


I may just have to buy 3 packs from attitude and hunt down JD elsewhere...

 

Update: I found JD#1 at Attitude in one of their sampler packs. Just ordered my seeds! All are feminised. The total cost was $122 after shipping with insurance.


2x Dutch Passion Brainstorm


2x Dutch Passion Euforia


2x Dutch Passion Jorge's Diamonds #1


1x World of Seeds Landraces Wild Thailand


1x Greenhouse Seeds Great White Shark


1x Delicious Seeds Cotton Candy (freebie)


1x Delicious Seeds Blue Northern Lights (freebie)


Think I aughta be able to find 4 wildly different but highly potent moms out of that batch? 2 indica and 5 sativas by my count.

 

Nice Score! I want me a heavy indica and a trippy sativa!

 

I've grown Cotton Candy (Delicious Seeds) and GHS Great White Shark. The GWS was standout, and Cotton Candy no slouch either, though the potency of the CC I got was lackluster. The GWS was insane. It stunk like crazy, plant structure was amazing, tolerant of screw-ups.

 

Quick update relating to the growing aspect - the cab is built and the seeds are in, but I ran into a major problem in cab construction. I've only got about a 15"x14" flower space and grow bags just won't fit. I think what I'm going to have to do is basically use 1 gallon grow bags as dividers inside of a larger rubbermaid tub that fits the dimensions almost exactly. That way I can still have individual containers and won't have to be constantly reamending a single 30l pot. I'm still sketchy on the whole organics thing so I think working with single pots in the beginning will just be a lot easier.


The other result is that my veg side is smaller too. it was a huge space loss - overall cab is about a foot narrower than I'd planned on. I ended up having to only use one 42w CFL in there just because 2 bulbs wouldn't fit. I think I still have room for a small cloner, 4 moms and a single small plant though. I'll just have to trim the moms' roots more frequently.


Pretty much all I need before I can put the seeds in the dirt is my medical card. I'm making the appointment now!

 

Just went to turn and rewater my cooking soil mix and it had a mycelial mat crusting the top in places. Rather exciting. The smell is quite different from what I'm used to as a hydro grower. Feels like I'm back in my parents' vegetable patches. In case anyone is wondering, I added a myco/beni bacteria package to the soil.


EDIT: Unfortunately it'll take me a while to get my card. This is going to have to go on hiatus for a bit. I figured I wouldn't have to see a dozen specialists to be rediagnosed with a friggin permanent chronic condition, but oh well.


I'm considering not popping the thai strain after all - with the last minute design changes I just don't think the current flower cab is big enough for the thai. I'm going to have to just veg them as small as possible while I wait for the soil to cook - I hear the trick is to give it a full month before using it. We'll see.


I'll be popping the JD #1, the Euforia, and the GWS first. I have a friend that needs some good moms in a hurry. I may not even be flowering these plants out since I hear they're good stable lines, in which case I'd probably be reimbursed and would reorder them plus a few extra for the trouble. I'm hoping that pans out since I'm really looking forward to testing some new super CBD strains.
