How in the hell did I miss this thread? Nice work! Some nice looking plants, buddy! Damn!
@Meesh you and me we do the best we can right
and above all we love doing it !
Indeed! Loving the look of that slippery rails! Iām gonna have to grow one out next year! The leaves and bud structure is gorgeous!
and I can say that the caterpillars never touched my Slippery Rails - didnāt see one on her - everything else but not her
Maybe start feminizing a few of those kick ass seeds for your friend Meesh over here so I can get them in the ground early and really blow shit up!
Caterpillars donāt like my ufs, but that was the only one this time
Looks like I need to check the breeders lab more often! I missed 500 posts!
Iām facing trim apocalypse. Iāve been pre trimming everything so when ready I cut and hang them. I thought this was my week but things are still holding at cloudy but as much or more clear. Itās really warm again except nights but my large plants seem to need more time.
I am finding a tad of PM on a couple so I have to act fast. Iām getting as much leaf off now and I may just dip those plants in a bucket with Green Cure rather that trying to spray. One plant is just too big and too many buds.I think the only way is to submerge them. I donāt think itāll hurt them. I may do a second wash two days later.
My Slippery rails x Cake Crasher is chugging along. I wish I had gotten her larger first but that killer heat came in right as I was trying to veg the new bunch. I should have just put them under lights but it is what it is. Spectral Tangerine and Spitting Cobra are all looking great. Iām looking forward to them. Iāll get some pics as they get larger.
It wonāt hurt them. The green cure is only potsssium bicarbonate. Pretty close to washing them in baking soda
What does bx mean? Back crossed?
Yes indeed
Thank you! So another uneducated questionā¦ what does that mean exactly? Like bred back to the original plant?
Yup thatās it
You are correct. When you cross a generation back with one of the parents. Itās most often done to reinforce one of the parental traits. Like GG4xOH (Gorilla Glue #4 x Original Haze) as a loving couple giving 50/50 parentage. But if you then cross one of their sweet little babies back to the OH you end up with 75% OH and 25% GG4. Youāll notice this sometimes when you are looking online for seeds. Youād see it expressed as [(GG4xOH)xOH] That would be one I would do because I love Haze.
Ive been growing a while but until recently I was focused on growing well then learning the botany. The botany is almost as much fun because you can really start to tailor your grow to what works best for you. In my case, my wife and I both smoke but for completely different reasons so her optimal weed is different than mine. Itās so cool to start mapping out the journey/experiment.
Once you find what you are looking for there, what are you planning to cross with that Blueberry you got cooking? Or is that secret special āfor me to know and you to find outā stuff?
Is this one of your creations? It sounds very interesting.
@Meesh - right at the moment the crosses I most want to do with the Blueberry are these
Blueberry BX f2s
Dosido x Blueberry BX
Double Cookies x Blueberry BX
Fire Alien Kush x Blueberry BX
Face Off OG x Blueberry BX
Slippery Rails x Blueberry BX
MAC 1 x Blueberry BX
think thatās a good start
yep - been growing those outside this summer
Oh man those sound tasty! So besides DJ Short and JOTI, who has a decent strain of BB? I thought I read the JOTI strain was the original but could be wrong.
I checked a while back but didnāt see it on your site.
