BigMike55’s Ongoing Cannabis Log (Part 2)

Hopefully not a dud. But I’m sure there are some in there. Just it is what it is.
You’re the first to run her from seed though. Keep me posted or better yet tag me into your thread.

I tried my best to do a squeeze test on those beans. If they were mostly dark and didn’t squash I figgered they were good. I did a germination test and I thought a good turnout. 60%popped in 48 hrs.

Problem I find with fresh seeds is I might squish too hard, lol. Many seeds that don’t pass the squish test for me do have a squished embryo squirt out of them. That makes me wonder if I am just squishing a fresh seed too hard and wasting what could very well be a good seed.

I know because that one seed from the thousands you make could be the holy grail :stuck_out_tongue_winking_eye: just pulling your leg.

Nifty job on the DIY cloner, I love me some projects but find I have little patience anymore when something doesn’t go right

This is the type I have and I was just lucky enough that the dude who sold me my first grow equipment threw it in. It works extremely well!

Nice build on that!

Looking at the calendar. That Sheelavathi has 14 weeks today under 12/12 lighting.
It’s getting borderline ridiculous waiting on this slow bee-otch. I’m still not seeing trichomes. No smell to speak of. If she’s going to do ANYTHING, she better hurry up.
I’m beginning to think @Oldjoints has played some kind of twisted joke on ol’ BigMike.

Hey I’ve got my own problems,
Today, I asked my phone “[Siri] why am I still single?” and it activated the front camera.

For a true equatorial 12 & 12 is pretty much a normal day . Cut lights-on back to 11 / 13 or 10.5 / 13.5 . Hell maybe stick a male in there . Like teasing a mare with a jackass…

Just jerking your chain, man.
But holy hell! I have 20+ weeks in this thing. Since I got the clone. That’s almost half a year. I could’ve had two ‘regular’ harvests in that time. Almost. I’d be deep into my second harvest, anyways.
This shit is going to take me to the stars. I hope.

More dark is a consideration. Good call.

I doubt it is as strong as a lot of the strains out there. But being the most popular strain in India has to say something for it.

IIRC they got a pretty good fix on where seeds are from . Easy enough to check how long an avg day is at what time of year . Many who do equatorials indoors suggest 2 wk veg & flip . Many go with 11/13 to speed things along . Kinda moot 'cause they’ll be 4-5 nodes & 2ft high before even hinting . Topping , bondage , pot size all ways to tame ‘em . Add to it that some will switch-hit at the drop of a hat if they don’t like somethin’ or just decide out the blue it’s breed or die . Somethin’s keeping her from triggering & I just got a feeling it’s photo period related . I’m watching with interest before giving the Sheelavathi a go .

I was wondering about that. I read a lot of different articles from news. It seems that in India, not necessarily Sheelavathi, most cannabis available is cut with something to make it more potent. I don’t know what it is they cut it with, but that’s the story I got. That would be from black market dealers. I guess you could get uncut from a grower. But street stuff is cut, what I read.

So, after sending out what I wanted to send out, (those who have not received yet, should be Monday or Tuesday.
I have three small sacks of ISS Feminized pollen left. Each sack has quite a bit of pollen and it has not be cut the junk in it is Greg’s from the flowers my pollen shaker has too large of screen
If anyone wants to try a cross I’m willing to send the pollen. But please don’t ask for it if you don’t intend to use it pretty quick. Let someone who can use it, get it.
Anybody want some?

Also have a couple ten packs of beans up for grabs.
