Thanks for following the whole diary with me brother, I like your company. Yes, I imagine there will be 8 pots of approximately 100 liters for the next ones.

Hail Doug! dude, I think it’s good to start by saying that there is no possibility of moving such a heavy substrate, so I can’t properly sanitize some corners of my flora room and this bothers the annoying person with cleaning that I have become. I also can’t maintain the plants behind the bed well without almost breaking my back every time, you know… I think the real goal is to make things easier and cleaner, being able to move the pots at any time. I also intend to divide the lighting better and I’m going to set up a single panel with all the lighting I have, I’m having some problems in this regard. A quantum bar would be perfect, but it’s not in my moment yet.

Just a rant, I’m upset about having to get rid of it, it was with me for a long time and it grew great plants. To plant in living soil, it is always best to think about as much substrate as possible, it is incredible how easy it is to stabilize good chains of bacteria and thus cycle nutrients. The substrate and microorganisms “learn” to grow one marijuana better than the other, cycle after cycle. If you chose to use living soil and enjoyed growing in 50 liters, you can’t wait to use 100, 200, 300… The more substrate, the better. But I need to adapt to another reality and make my domestic cultivation easier. 80/100 liter pots also do a great job!

That makes perfect sense to me. Pots will at least be moveable.

Nice thread. I like those large beds. I also know they can be difficult to do anythings with them, especially in an indoor environment. Organic indoor can be difficult for sure.
Great show

Good to see you here @Zanzibar , I’m looking forward to seeing what the smoke of this blue chem will be like, man, it has a really killer chemmy smell, a resin that sticks to your finger with just a touch. She has a curious sweetness deep down but I need more time to say something. Regarding the bed, dude, I love the way she takes care of the plants but it’s a double-edged sword. I believe that with pots of up to 100 liters it is possible to manage a good diet using aerated teas and maintaining ideal humidity or close to it.

Hello OG!
I didn’t have my cell phone for a while, it fell into the water almost two weeks ago. In fact, he’s a real winner, he’s been with me for about 6 years and has been repaired countless times, he even fell from the tenth floor about 5 years ago and was rebuilt and I’m posting and taking photos with him, so forgive the lack of quality of the images, he does his best, anyway

The third blue chem is behind them all and I wasn’t able to photograph it, but it’s very small compared to the rest.

I’ll be back to update all impressions on each plant. Thank you @ix3u , @Zanzibar e @eskobar for all the energy put into this community!

So much resin, bro! Jack the Ripper, the first photo is amazing, lots of sativa characteristics in it! Waiting for the smoke report from Bluechem

Hey brother, is everything ok? Yes, this jack really has a very sativa appearance and the description of it scares me a little, I’m looking forward to testing the smoke because I normally have a high tolerance.
Oh yeah man, I’m also waiting to try bluechem, it has a killer strong scent!

Hello, OG! I’ve been away for a while, this transition phase tends to involve a good deal of extra work. I lost my cell phone during that time and the new one arrived recently, so I can go back to my diary.
Anyway, I have an update in my vegetable room, a new improvised panel made with 6,500 80w LED bars. For this vegetative phase, it will be a big deal.
This configuration will allow me to work my hunts much better, I’m happy with this progress.
I’ll do a smoke report soon but I can tell you that Blue Chem’s #1 cut is killer and I’ve never gotten as high on marijuana in my life as I did on JTR, honestly.
Here they are curing a little in the wine cellar. It’s a shame I don’t have a vacuum packaging machine yet, but I’ll have it soon.
The next cycle I will do with bluechem #1, JTR #2 and 24k with some controlled pollinations. Halfway through the cycle I will start preparing the next hunt.
I wish everyone a great start to the week!

Hi @Cannativista , thank you for the compliment and also thank you for visiting the topic! Always good to have friends around!
Hail @gambiarra.bil , its ok? So, until now I’m thinking about making the F3 with both bluechem and JTR. Also, I’m thinking about pollinating a 24k branch with JTR and maybe something else, but no big ideas so far.

Hello, OG.
Well, they grew a lot in a short time and honestly I wish I had a few more days, but ok. Tomorrow I need to remove the cuts from bc #1, jtr #2 and 24k. My health goal is to drink water like this male from BC, the one with fallen leaves up there on the left.
This time I’m going to make some clones with peat, perlite and vermiculite. The rockwool I’ve been using has been giving me a headache lately.
I’m finishing work on the new panel, I should finish it this weekend, plus I need to apply a coating to the inside of the room and then I’m ready for next season.
Stay safe, OGers.

Hello, Og.
Yesterday was the day to take some cuts and put all the plants to flower outside. Here in Brazil it is possible to flower outdoors almost every year.
My goal with this is to perpetuate JTR and bluechem, as well as wanting to pollinate the 24k with some JTR pollen. I will have pollen from both saved to use in any situation in the future.
Here is the 24k mother, she has some cuts to give me today when the lights come on again.
At the same time as I manage the plants, I am preparing everything for the next cycle. Now I need to cover the room with flowers and then I’ll be ready for the next one.
Have a great week everyone!

Bluechem #1; This plant caught my attention from the sprout, it and the male I chose to propagate. Very stinky when rubbed and a good pile on the buds in the pre-flora. She has a berry at the bottom but her chemical is very strong! I had never tried anything from this line but I was always very curious about the whole chem, sour, skunk, etc. line, even before I became interested in the world of genetics, and I must say that this terpene profile really pleased me. The touch of the trichomes sometimes reminded me of school rubber, sometimes of a freshly unpacked plastic product… A really strong and predominant smell. The effect I would say is that it brings a really cool concentration/focus, good for reading, researching and studying, maybe even some physical activity. I’m going to repeat it in the next cycle and improve the parameters that weren’t so good in the last one, and then decide whether it continues or not, but I’m still very happy to find something along these lines.
Bluechem 2 and 3 are really nothing special, so they will be discarded
Jack the ripper #1; JTR didn’t catch my attention in anything other than its radical and wild growth during the vegetation phase and mid-flowering, in fact, its trichomes were strange at the beginning, as if it had no content inside. You run your finger through it and you don’t notice the smell or the glue, but after halfway through flowering things changed a little. The trichomes swelled to the point that they were thrown onto the fingers when touched, a resin that literally feels like sand, in fact, when I finished making the trim, the table was shining with so much trichome that I collected it and did a good sift at the end, very clean. This plant is the most terpened of the 3 but it is still nothing fantastic in my opinion, a light taste of citrus mango, a not very ripe mango I would say with a citrus that is very present and this terp profile will be repeated in all 3 hays but all less powerful than #1. The effect is literally devastating, I’ve never smoked anything like it before. At the end of the trimma I had a ball of about 1 gram of hashish and I made a joint to celebrate as usual, with my brother and another friend. At the end of the joint I wasn’t able to concentrate on anything else, a lot of thoughts in a row, a really crazy confusion, restless body and even a slight tachycardia. I think I have good resistance, but today I know that I can’t overdo it and I consider it cowardly to give it to a beginner to use, definitely.
JTR #2; It’s the biggest of the 3 and as I said, it has the same terp profile as the others but it’s softer than 1 and stronger than 3, but the terp profile really isn’t something I’d want to inherit in a cross with it. , it was chosen for its vigor and ramification. It also showed a nice fade and the highest resin production of the 3, large sandy trichomes. The effects of all 3 are equally strong and I would say it could be fun to use her pollen in something.

Dude, the BC and JR smoke report is really good. I was excited by the chemical description of the blue chem and the profile that I like. You did a great job with these two genetics, brother. Hats off to you 
.
I still have some blue chem here and I intend to germinate them. I used the male I got here and used it in some of my cuttings. I germinated them.

Brother, I am very grateful for your willingness to donate these seeds to me, it has always been a dream to cultivate chemdog, sourd, skunk and such things. I can’t describe my gratitude, just say that whatever you need and is within my power, I will do for you. This community is incredible, I also thank @eskobar @Zanzibar @ix3u for contributing your time/money/love to this incredible work.
We’re going to another cycle soon with these incredible genetics, just waiting for the cuttings to take root, but this time only females in the room, sorry boys.
