Starting my first journal here on overgrow as I start a new grow going for a perpetual grow dropping 5 reg seeds every few weeks to a month the goal is to eventually be adding 5 plants while also pulling a couple out to harvest depending on how many females I get out of each batch of 5 never tried it before but a few people said I should be able to do it
At the same time I will be taking clones of each culling any that I don’t think are exceptional as I’m looking for my first plants to make a cross with I want a couple different males and females maybe even some of the same strain if I really like it or someone ask me to even plan to do a entire male grow as I only know what I’ve read and seen in pictures never seen grew one intentionally before
I’m also in the process of reading a few books have the growing bible, breeding bible and marijuana grower handbook from Ed rosenthal and one other I believe
always interested in learning more so if you have and suggestions
The strains I’ll be working with:
These are from sick selections won them from him on Instagram
One pack of chocolate marshmallow from exotic genetics
And lastly when they show up from @HaRdRoC and a couple others (sorry still new here names are difficult) auction again thank you for the invite was highly appreciated sincerely hope it helped
Looks great, man. Excited to follow along. My favorite cultivation book is Marijuana Botany, by Clarke. Here’s a scan if you want to take a look:
The Blueberry Butcher looks great. I’ve heard breeders mention that breeding with Jack Herer, within a few generations, increasingly Jack-dominant traits show up among gene frequencies; it all turns back to Jack.
Working with three Jack Herer crosses right now, all F2s and F3s, seeing almost all Jack structure and majority Jack terpenes.
But don’t be discouraged to breed with it. It can be a valuable tool; you can create F1s that don’t F2 or F3 well at all. It is a way of providing great vigor complex poly F1s, without reproductions of the seed stock being similar; they’ll drift Jack if others try to breed them forward.
Hope you come out with a delicious Blueberry expression. Have fun finding your gems =)
Thank you very much will definitely give the book a read and thank you for the info definitely hoping for a keeper from the blueberry butcher but also really want one from the Jack the Ripper #2 on the grow from your heart podcast the breeder of it does a strain review and says that Jack the Ripper is supposed to be super potent but a slight challenge to grow as well
Quick update on the little ones all but the back left doing well except the back left probably going to pull the one also heat is getting out of control time to buy a small ac for the bedroom probably going to run to Walmart and do that tonight
When your battling the summer temps this is always awesome to see got the ac in last night and it’s already making the difference plus my lights are off from 10 am to 4 pm the flowering tent will probably run 8 to 8 being off during the day
Will do also going to try and video it and put on Instagram as well I’ll post a link have a few things to try never pressed before so going to be a fun learning experience
I use to have a piece of glass for this but I broke it while using it last time parchment paper worked out alright going to put both in the freezer for a little have them on a frozen plate but want them nice and cold plus smoke break
