Talking about the FGxJS last night reminded me that I wanted to try pollinating it with the FG male pollen that i have in my fridge. Its almost a year old so who knows if it will take, but I hit a small branch last night to make FG x (FG x JS), which i assume should be even more like the original male? I also hit a GSC with the pollen as well.
Heres the FGxJS out of the box (day 21), just a really great and beefy structure to this plant
I tried something a bit different for these cuttings. Rather than using my usual solo cups I used plastic shotglasses full of coco. They’re clear so I covered up other shotglasses with electrical tape that they can nest into.
I want to use these cuttings for a SOG style grow in smaller pots, so if i used solo cups I would have found myself waiting for them to root well before i could transplant (or trying to pull them out). I’m thinking they’ll fill these with roots quickly to make a little ‘plug’ that I can then transplant into whatever. They sure are cute either way lol
Here they are in the dome with the few remaining BBBs and OGs that haven’t rooted yet…they should be showing tomorrow. I also put one g99 in an oasis cube for a comparison.
Blackberry Breaths and Orange Gojis are now in the second flowering room for sexing. A couple slow rooters are still hanging out in the dome. I didn’t have the heart to put them under the big light so i tossed a SIL LED fixture in there.
I’ll be culling the males and letting the females finish to try and pheno hunt. The G99 clones will be going in here shortly after rooting and then I’ll bump the light up to the 400W
Its in hard pellet form, i think its made for lawns and gardens. I emailed them just to confirm that this stuff is suitable for food/weed crops. When I soak the pellets in water they mostly dissolve but they leave a cloudy, powdery residue behind. I think I’ll presoak a bunch and strain off the solids then use it like that…I’m not sure how I’ll figure out dosing yet
@Heliosphear I’ve noticed in the past that almost every grow has a milk crate involved somewhere, it’s looking like paint cans are pretty ubiquitous too haha
And here are the originals from seed. The one with the white tie is 6A the ‘dominant’ one, the runt is 6B. I’ve been training them to keep it a bit fair and now the runt has overtaken its sibling lol
I’m really happy they’re both viable and I get to see them bud side by side
My budding plants are at day 32 now. Looking great so far, I think my new nute blend is working well for them.
FGxJS - i think this one is going to yield really well. Cool wild looking growth pattern and its very frosty already. The smell is very boring though lol
GSC2 - this will probably be my keeper. I just love the smell its very fruity, almost like Hawaiian punch. I think it takes after its durban parent alot more than the others
And lastly my two Mephisto autos. One is a 24 Karat, and one beary white x 3 bears OG. Your guess as to which I mixed up the seeds. They’re at day 61 from sprouting, and I’ve just given each one a good flush. I’ll probably harv them in like a week
This first one is a chonker for sure…just one fat rocket ship cola. It has a more mild sweet smell.
