Hey Canucks, This summmer was good for us in central ON. Not nearly the rot issues with last years weather this time. I really don’t have many pics (i’ll post some o the post harvest) but we pulled 5 lbs. dry of four plants One in the ground and 3 in 25 gal pots. Quality was great. Would like to see how we all did with the LEGAL 4, and as we know, if you don’t sell openly etc. There is NO LEGAL limit for possession of dried plant matter in your residence. Gonna have to convert a bedroom to a humidor next year. Kinda cool vegging a plant for 6-7 months before blooming, and planting a giant in June. with a huge screen makes me smile with anticipationl. Google maps view is starting to look like humboldt county up here.
Wow nice haul. So you vegged them all 6-7 months? Did the ones in the pot yield differently from the ones in the ground?
Yes, very nice haul! Way to go making the most out of 4 plants.
My attempt was pretty pitiful. I put 4 Lebanese seedlings in the ground in mid-may. 2 turned out to be males (I collected some pollen). The 2 females grew well enough and didn’t seem bothered by the very dry climate we have here, so that was a win. Ended up with a few ounces of really nice mild smoke (the way I like it).
Next season I am going to veg a bunch well beforehand to get them nice and big, and select females (or grow fems) and probably grow in containers rather than in the ground.
Sweet! I usually start veg a few months early so they get to a decent size. Nowhere near as big as your giants.
BC’s mountains presents a challenge to plants wanting to live past September.
Sheltered from the cold, finished indoors but still with natural light.
Took advantage of a dark space for over Summer flowering. Moved a couple plants in and out daily until mid August.
Had a few beasts.
Vegged cpl months inside firstsrc="/uploads/default/original/3X/4/2/42a889452761fa7e5e1295eeb31a4b0f5d4f5e88.jpeg" width=“374” height=“500”>
I start them around christmas inside. The potted plants are together under a double scrog screen setup and they get topped every week until mid July. One that I put in the ground doesn’t get as much pinching and is let to grow wild. The inground does produce about 25% heavier but is a wild monster bush lol. I’m scaling up to 50 or 100 gal fabric pots next year with the only issue being. that they are too large to move inside if the weather goes wonky in the fall, Hard to predict as last year the large cola plants got rot. Multiple smaller buds are the best for damp whether. so this year I didn’t stop topping till 2 weeks before Aug (usually budset time). Species vary a bit with frost tolerance, most o my clones are used to our weather, but I ran a Greenpoint Lucky 7’s this year and gave a clone away. It handled frost better than any plant I’ve run outdoors went 2 weeks after I pulled the pots indoors to ffinish. No rot no mould went to the end of October thru 3-4 hard frosts. Totally surprised us.
Great setup there, similar to what I do. I also like keeping the rain off the buds while keeping airlow hi. I usually defoliate anything under the canopy as it grows. popcorn buds get outta hand outdoors, way too much trimming.I usually shoot for more than 30 tops per plant
Beautiful structure there. nice work, what strain is that one?
Always success to grow on, I can’t learn without fails or problems, Overcoming problems is the real way to get better. I find that while it is hard to achieve same strength in vs. outdoor, Sungrown herb is superior medical quality for my daughters migraine issues (something about the sun I believe) and we also noted dffierent expression of terpenes when clones were exposed mainly to morning sun as opposed to afternoon sun Its only 4 plants but over the years, we notice a trend?
Awesome show gang!!! Super jealous of anyone who can take advantage of our summer months and pull a harvest. I live to close to a school to do anything outdoor (at my residence …hehe). …and that old fuhk Brian Pallister needs to piss off already. Everyones talking about harvests and all this, and I’m over here emailing MB provincial leaders about motivating the youth to vote in provincial elections by legalizing homegrown in MB…every pothead of legal voting age would be at the booths. FML
Sorry to rant. Let’s see those harvest pics!!!
Baker Street by Tweed.
Cannabis Tax Paid stamp and all.
They describe it as a land race Kush.
Seed grown in a planter, Dawn to near Sunset light is the reason for the symmetry and compact stature.
Never wanted for perfect conditions.
Killing frost with snow forecast in late September, been a window Queen finishing up the flowering.
How’s the smoke?
One thing I’ve been curious about… Technically bakerstreet and argyle are all that we can legally grow… But what legally would happen if they happened to outcross against something else?
It doesn’t seem to be mentioned anywhere in the regulations that i can find…
If you’re really concerned with the legality just purchase a pack of legit seeds and keep the receipt. Even if you never grow them.
On closer inspection that seed stock is all feminized? Anyone confirm this? Perhaps this is an anti-breeding strategy?
Smooth and free burning. Slow build up, but gets you real stoned.
The Cannabis Act does refer to licit sourced Cannabis.
I take that to mean f2 and all subsequent generations inherit the legitimate status.
Either way, got the tax paid stamp, lived to see the day.
Lol, so now we need some nice male pollen collection to cross against these and freely share.
I’m finding it interesting how legislation is so undefined on this topic. You’d think breeding would be front of mind in canada but…
Yes, Feminized seed only.
There is nothing to prevent me breeding my female plants. Cannabis pollen is wind borne, any seeds that come packaged inside a Baker Street bud are legal too.
This plant is currently in regeneration, bit of luck, I will be doing another flowering in April.-May.
Edit: Baker Street has not responded to long days. It may have been too far gone in flowering.
Positive note, the Apollo 11 has successfully regenerated, round 4.
“It was out on the balcony, no idea what polenated it! But whatever it was it was good!”
That reminds me i found a couple seeds in my blue dreams this week…
