My seeds did not pop so I bought six clones today . Two each of Vanilla Frosting / Banana Mango and two Blue Dream Clones . They all look a little sad but plenty of time to doctor up before planting . They sell out fast and I wanted to get started before I get all of last seasons trimmed lol . It seems never ending to keep fresh smoke on hand . Happy Growing

Iā€™m really jealous of your weather, Iā€™m from Canada. Is the bling still alive? I wonder if it would be possible to grow a plant for 2 seasons where you are.

No she finally froze to death they keep the mother plants going in the green houses . Iā€™m not sure how long they will keep growing I never tried it . I start out fresh each season with seed or clones . Iā€™m at two thousand feet elevation light snow a couple days ago then it froze 40 degrees this morning might make high 60s today . Then rain and low snow tonight nothing outside until at least may 1st . I repotted the clones and placed in the tent under LEDs .

Just had a great read though of your amazing journal, would have given you more likes, but I ran out :grin::grin:
Was great to see those monsters progress.
Sorry to hear about your problems your neighbors caused youā€¦the drug enforcement seem to have a stick up their ass about pot in them parts eh?
Thanks again for sharing your wonderful grow.
Canā€™t wait to see this years, cheers :beers:

I grew out the Banana Mango last year, nice yielder. It doesnt have much bag appeal, but it definitely had a nose, I got strong terpinolene aroma.

The stick up their ass was caused by a couple of idiots shooting and killing a Deputy on an illegal grow now we all suffer .

Oh wow, well that will definitely bring some heat aroundā€¦I hate how a couple bad apples can spoil it for everyone aroundā€¦this is the exact reason that I 'm more a fan of animals than people :roll_eyes::roll_eyes::grin::grin::grin::grin::v::v:

Nostalgia.
That Blue Dream cut looks like the original that was going around back in 2010ā€¦??(Arcata,Ca)
Never got to finish the BD, (mites from the grow shop did them in) Bummed me out.
Looking forward to see these finish!!
We grew out a patch of GDP(SanFran cut) a few seasons there. I do miss the fresh air up in the hills.
Anyway, got some fond memories from looking at your garden. Thanks

Keep on Truckinā€™ Brother!

Did you grow out the Blue Dream last year? I need to find some good seeds or cuts of that one. Shouldnā€™t be hard in Colorado. Only tie I have to it is a bagseed Ghost Dream that I grew out. I think it gave me a hidden seed or two. Most definitely Ghost dom, and real good.

Is there a legit good seed source for it anymore or is it a cut now? Best vibes on the new season. Iā€™ve been taking my plants outside any day itā€™s not cloudy and below 40-45Āŗ. Itā€™s about to get spring here. And, we have a lot more moisture going in to this year. time will tell. peace and best vibes.

Look for long leaves with unusually deep creases in the veinsā€¦ Just like what you see in grampsā€™ pictures like iggypuffs said. Iā€™ve only seen that trait carry through in a hybrid once, so if it has that trait it is probably legitimate.

And the bud should smell very mild and sweet, kind of like sugar cookies. Itā€™s not a strong smelling plant but the high is great.

@iggypuffs I really miss those cuts too, I havenā€™t been able to get them since I left the bay area.

I havenā€™t grown Blue dream for a few years years . I hope these cuts are good the last clones I grew were monsters . This seasons are from Dark Heart Nurseries also .

Cool. I may break down and try DH someday. Iā€™ll have to get someone to ship it for me. We have a place in Denver that sells Dark Heart cuts, I think. I was trying to order from DH a couple of years ago and somehow the Denver place came up on their Certified growers. Itā€™s 3 hours drive north though and they werenā€™t shipping then. Maybe they are now. I have so many seeds now that I really havenā€™t thought about buying any. I would for the right one, fo sure.

So, the BD is cut only now??? I suppose so. Itā€™s pretty old by now. peace

I think Its Humboldt Seed working with Dark Heart ? one has seed banks and the other supplies a great selection of clones . I have had great results with both companyā€™s . I checked my weed cabinet and found a jar of Blue Dream not sure how old but it still works lol .
