Thank you your awesome.This is my second outdoor grow where I didn’t have to hide my plants under pine trees and hiding in ditches from helicopters that kept flying low looking for growers.I can have my plants in full sunlight now.That trick of bending them 45 degrees true north gets me so much amazing sun.was going to cage them at first but the scrog net exceeded every expectation that I had.Tomorrow the 6x6 scrog nets going up.I’ve never gotten a plants stalk to turn into a trunk that is now thicker than a sledgehammer handle.Don’t know whether it’s the ancient kush or the Turkish landrace Copa used.Plant is a heavy mass of tops now and the smell is so strong I’m surprised the neighbors haven’t said anything yet.It smells like Skunky strong weedand Jet fuel with a sticky sweetness

Harvest day today for my second BLR x GSD tester, Pheno #1 @ 75 days of 12/12, the last few days at 11/13. Grown under an HLG 550 R-Spec with high CRI Buddies string lights from LEDTeknik/GrowLightsAustralia, in seven gallon felt pots, my own recycled dirt, with some NFtG and General Organics Bio-Thrive liquid fertilizers, along with supplements like Mykos, Recharge, Fish Sh!t, AgSil16H, BAS freeze dried aloe and coconut powders, and some LABS solution. This one was the star, great budsite and nug development, a sticky, happy, thirsty plant that stretched well (about double) and stayed nice and open with minimal defoliation besides big fan leaves. It’s medium loud, with diesel/rubber smells and something lighter I can’t identify. Its one downside was a very thin and floppy stem structure, even with silica and decent fan action to keep it moving around. Worth the staking a topped bush like this needed , but probably better for SCROG. I’ll post some more photos of the trimmed buds later on today, for now here’s moments before the saw hit the trunk:

The earliest flowerer from my P25 plants, funny little short thing. Two siblings aren’t too far behind on flowering, but are easily twice as big, and then two others are just starting to show real signs of flowering, but are much much bigger. I could swear I had taken photos of the others, but I don’t see them now.

Is that a reveg throwing out single leaves or is that just the way she grows?

Not an intentional re-veg, but… it was the plant that alerted me I had kept the P25s in small nursery pots too long (by starting to flower on its own a little earlier than I was expecting). I think it’s fair to say it may have revegged itself a bit when it suddenly found itself with way more root space.
ETA a photo of one of the two other P25s that started showing signs of flowering shortly after being up-potted. Similar leaves, but of course those two plants may also have been triggered to flower by lack of rootspace, but were just far enough behind for the change in leg space to allow more vegging before they really started flowering.

So I need 5 testers to help me test a Collab
Copa’s GSD F6 x My Purple Moonshine
(Purple Gorilla’s Moonshine Daydream).
These should be popped asap and documented. Obviously at this point they are gonna have to be run indoors. But if your interested sign up below. Space is limited.
Thank you!

@Mudballs some of this thread Mel franks GDP run documents the making of the purple moonshine, towards the end give a better idea I believe. It’s GDP from the Mel frank collection ag seed co released. It’s from the first release which was S1’s. And old time moonshine from DJ short, which was gifted to me from blue star seed co privately, in which I found a juicy fruit Thai leaning male. It did not overpower the GDP side for most phenos, instead added a grease, stretch, and IMO a clarity that the GDP lacked in the head realm, this is a full body medicine, reminds me of Robitussin and some headies, at least it smells like headies and taste like that for most phenos. Some do have this all out fruit attack from the old time. But those phenos are the outliers.

reeses cut x gsdf6 testers are filling out nicely and in pre flower. of the six started i have i have 2 males 2 females and waiting on the other 2? i pulled 1 male that was true male no intersex. may collect pollen from other male if i can move it.
couple shots of the girls. love this spider guard dog. watched it scrap with and take down a bug twice its size.
the s.sunset og x p25 fems have had a nice growth spurt thanks to july’s hot and mostly dry month. they have caught up to some of the other plants that had a month head start on them. all plants in organic soil and get weekly humics, silica, top dress with malted 6row barley powder and kelp meal, watered in with recharge.
this is how they looked on july 11th. they also are in pre flower and staggering growth getting ready for flowering.

First two pics is the same p25 in slightly different light. Couldn’t get a pic that shows both the resin development and the pink hairs so I here’s both. Just shy of 5 weeks of flower by august 2 outside in MA. Pretty cool variegation too that has become much more pronounced recently.
Next is the last of the bunch to start flowering, presumably Iranian og pheno. This one smells strong on the stem rub, stretchiest of the bunch. I like this one the most despite the slower start to flower we’ll see how she does. Might need to bust open the pollen again and hit that one, already knocked up my two fast flowerers.
The whole fam below
And last is a bonus shit of a purple haired pheno of williams (wonder x 79 queen most purple Colombian ) f2 from gas, this one is sharing 15 gallon pots with my p25s. Each pot is 15 gal, 3 plants per pot.
Edit: other than 2 sprays of neem and one spray of spinosad right before flower, no IPM on these. Water only up until this morning I gave them a little epsom salt and seaweed kelp extract. Gonna top dress with some worm castings soon.

Just wanted to say thank you from the bottom of my heart Copa if you’re seeing this!! Here is my Male Reeses cut x Gsd f6 and his gaggle of frostitutes! Got 3 Vale tudo round 2(Vintage Mendo Purps x Kimbo kush x gsd f5)#2testers,(2 phenotypes), 1 purple zkittlez x gsdf5, 1 female Reeses cut ([pbb x oreoz] x gsdf6)[only female outta 6] and last a cross I made using a male vale tudo tester x icy grapes… It has been a hectic summer for me having a lot going on all around, I haven’t been able to get up to this spot in last 3 weeks… But I am going up tomorrow to topdress and make a tea and stake em. This summer has been good and bad for me not trying to say too much but it’s been tough… This spot is up in Maine at my step father’s house(my mom passed 2015) he has been watering and doing recharge once a week but hasn’t been doing any trimming back, topping ect. I don’t expect him too, It’s just been hard to find time to get up there lately. I had a good friend that I’ve known since middle school get shot in the chest and was in hospital past 3 weeks so most free time was spent going up there, he lives in NH 2 hours away in other direction… Besides that I have really bad neuropathy from liver failure and almost dying, so just doing regular activity hurts my legs so bad it’s stupid. I compare it to walking barefoot on jagged rocks all day. Growing saved my life and I really wanted to do better job this summer but did lose a few branches from wind from lack of going up there, but I’m going up tomorrow to do my thing and will take few pictures as well of everything! Cheers everyone and hope everyone here is doing great and having a awesome summer so far!
