I have my STS made. Should I plan to hit the Blood orange haze with it? Its a tiny sprout right now, planted seed 4 days ago. Or should I plan to start another seed with the group in a few days?

@LoveDaAutos and @GCBudz are we doing this together?

I think you two are running together? I’ll be on my own with the Chemdog reversal… i’ll be behind you guys on the schedule.

I’m at least a week from germinating any auto seeds. You could always practice on the Blood Orange Haze.

Ok, let me know when you are starting something and I will start another at that point. It might work out perfectly because this little baby tent has room for 4 pots and it’s now full, but I think Strawberry Crinkle will be done soon. I found a couple of the first amber trichomes on the Strawberry Crinkle this morning.

Make sure you’re checking the trichromes on the bud itself and not on the sugar leaves. The trichromes will turn amber earlier on the leaves then on the buds themselves I’ve found.

Time for an update…

The Strawberry Crinkle is about to get chopped today or tomorrow. It has been 89 days since the seed hit soil. I have seen people on reddit chopping this plant at 60 days or less! I don’t know what I am doing wrong or maybe they chopped hella early.

The White Creme is doing well and so far I am very happy I decided to do some light training because the plant is really opened up and more developed than the crinkle was at this time. On day 39 since the seed hit the soil. Top leaves are almost always praying. I have even tied down some of the fan leaves after tucking way in and they pop back out. Strong lil girl.

The Double Grape is progressing at normal pace but at 8 days it’s still only the first set of leaves and not much to look at so no photos today.

The Blood Orange Haze is way behind. After popping its first set of leaves it just stopped progressing all together. I was afraid the root died or something but I left it alone. It’s still way smaller than the double grape but I will let it do its thing. I will likely try my STS on it when it’s older. Also nothing to look at so no photos this update.

I will have a spot freed up in the auto tent when I chop this Strawberry Crinkle. Thinking about running another blood orange haze since this one is a shrimp so far. Any one vote for a different mephisto I have on hand? See first post. I will wait to drop it when @LoveDaAutos drops one to spray with STS.

If I’m picking one from your list to reverse to make more seeds it would be the White Creme. And if I had room I would run one of the Girl Scout Monkeys together with it to make promising cross seeds. Walter White X CDLC X Forum Stomper X 4 Assed Monkey has got to be good.

I’m cleaning out and sanitizing my tent today and lowering my light. Tomorrow I’ll up-pot my four Cap Junky clones and move them into that tent which will free up some room for me to run at least 2 autos.

Whenever I do a seed run whether auto or photo strain I run at least one other plant to pollinate with the pollen from the reversed plant. I’ll gladly trade you for some of your White Creme S1 seeds and a cross of that with the GSM.

I’ve grown a bunch of Mephisto strains and always took them at least 75-90 days from seed, never had one close to ready in 60d. I suspect the reports of 55d harvest are from people really excited about growing some marijuanas :grinning:

DO IT!

It’s my plan at least after the next 3 seed runs are done!

Well, I spent over an hour cutting down the Strawberry Crinkle. Just chilling, smoking, taking photos, etc. I took so many photos it was hard to narrow it down. Still too many photos but I can’t resist. The colors are beautiful and the nugs are dense and huge, smells so good. I see why people get hooked on these. I am already wondering when I might order more from mephisto.

And then I cut off a bunch of leaves and took more photos under this crazy light I have on my utility table. It takes almost all the colors out and I guess I cut off all the purple leaves. Looks like a totally different plant.

@Rhino_buddy I am gona need some expensive auto seeds from ya… i know you got em haha. Would love to trade some mephisto for some night owl. I will make you night owl seeds if I am successful with mephisto. I am mostly tagging you cause I want you to see this pretty plant above. It’s been too long buddy, we miss you guys.

We need to hang out more. Our calendar is so packed, unless you wanna do an impromptu evening or maybe when an Rx burn gets cancelled, I could reach out. I know you’re schedule isn’t that loose. But let’s plan something. Kaw valley seed fair is this coming Saturday and they’re going to have a cannabis section at the trading tables this year. I don’t have anything bulk to share, but I’m excited to see what shows up. And maybe observe who drops them off. :wink:

Man that crinkle is looking amazing. I need to come see your setup since you were only in 2 tents before. Also I’ve hopefully have some cuts to share when I get back from Wisconsin. Hopefully they’re all doing well while I’m gone for another week.

And I’d love to share beans with you. I actually offered some of my stash of meph, night owl and twisted trees to @Oldtimerunderground just last night. I’ve got plenty I’ve saved ones and twos of to make more seeds with, so if that’s the goal, I’d give you anything I’ve got. I’m just too busy to focus on my plants more than just keeping them alive. :yum:

This non profit we’re starting is really keeping us maxed, on top of the normal business we’re running. And Courtneys mom being in the hospital for months…

I want to get you a cut of this orange cheesecake, blueberry, and pine tar kush I wanna hang on to. As long as they’re still alive when I get home. :face_with_spiral_eyes:

I’ll shoot you a text when I get back and share my calendar so we can find some time to catch up. We miss you guys too.

I am going to go with your suggestion of a White Creme and a Girl Scout Monkeys so I can get more White Creme seeds and a cross of the the GSM to share with ya. One issue I have to figure out is that my auto tent is small and only has one slot now. So i need to rearrange a lot of tents and reconfigure… or just plan on selfing the white creme and saving some pollen to then apply to a GSM in the very near future. Open to thoughts and suggestions. I have saved some Blueberry Muffin Pollen once, its still in my freezer and I haven’t tried to use it yet so don’t know if i did a good job drying and storing it.

The white creme is really growing nicely! I saw some posts on reddit of a guys GSM about ready to chop and it has like 25 huge colas, i couldn’t believe the size. Kind of excited to try that one now.
