Hello Overgrow.
I have a seed giveaway active at this link for the Durban seeds if anyone is interested:
I got an mailing from Strainly a few days before my check came. I usually delete this type of email, but I am very anxious lately because of 2 seed mailings that never reached me, despite the post office’s tracking saying one WAS delivered. When I get very anxious and have no other release for it, I spend money. In the early 90’s my (late, ex-) wife and I both did that. We had SO MUCH credit card debt!
Anxiety is the main reason I am not a big sativa fan. Yes, they give a nice clear head, but they up my anxiety level. The indica relaxes me which reduces my anxiousness.
Anyway, when I got to Strainly, I looked up indicas for giggles. They had a very nice selection. When I found one I liked, I decided to find out how they expected to get paid. Apparently many of them only accept PayPal. It seems that if you pay them as a gift to a friend, the only electronic record of it is you paying a friend $XX.00. I ordered 5 different types of seeds:
Rusty OG Kush F2 (5 reg seeds)
Tajikistani Hash Plant F3 (5 reg seeds)
Mazar-i-Shariff x Mazar-i-Shariff (5 reg seeds)
Chocolate Kush, (10 fem seeds)
Warrior Kush (Sweet Tooth x Afghani) (5 reg seeds, this is the only one of the 5 that isn’t 100% indica)
Fortunately for me, not everyone at Strainly is looking for top dollar for their beans. These were very reasonably priced, even with S&H. Now, if I can trust the USPS, the first 3 strains in the above list, which are coming from within the US and will be here tomorrow. The others are coming from Canada. I trust the USPS even less with international mail, Canada Post tracking has estimated to arrive Tuesday and Thursday.
I am going to have to squeeze one of those badasses in between gifted seed runs. I haven’t smoked 100% indica in about 15 years and am really looking forward to it. 
My ST4s are the oldest plants still growing already. They are looking great on flower day 48.
The one I removed the bulk of leaves from, 83, has flowers on the next layer down from top where the a good portion of pistils have turned. This is the time I used to harvest Purples. Their pistils turn in the late mid to late 40 days Flowering as well. These plants have a very pleasant aroma. I can’t really name it, but I’d buy a plug in room deodorizer in bulk if it smelled the same.
I snagged a bud that was about 1" around a couple of days ago and left it sit out to dry. I don’t have the patience to let it finish and get cured, I am to anxious. Gotta try out as soon as it is dry.
Here is the reversal project, plant 84:
As you can see, I cut the top off of her, right after I removed the leaves causing shade. I was right about the dense female buds making it difficult to grow male genitalia. Look at the small buds closer to the central stalk. You’ll see a bunch of banana shaped pollen sacks. The leaves were causing so much shade, the male flowers were able to overcome female flowers in these locations. There are a small number of these bananas. Unless more come in, I’ll unlikely gather pollen from this plant. As an extra plant, this was an excellent learning experience. Had I waited so long (my instructions said to wait until it had been Flowering for a week) with one I was counting on, I’d be really angry with the results.
The female buds look as though they may contain seeds. It they do, I’ll certainly collect them.
I am planning on using 84 for make concentrate. Does anyone have a reason not too. The STS soaks into the plant matter. Does it effect the gooey goodness. I’ll see…
I had taken 2 lower branches from 84 before it went into Flowering. Those became the clones 94 & 95, that will be the next harvest after the original plant after 84.
I cut off the top 4.5" of each when they’d been Flowering for 9 days.
So, while I am on the subject of the Sweet Tooth #4, here is a photo of the rooted clones from 94 and 95, they are 107 and 108.
They have not only rooted (8 days
), they are just about back to Veg mode. The center top mass was pistils. Now, those pistils are starting to look like leaves.
I expect they will show some growth in the next week.
Edit added the paragraph an photos of plants 94 & 95.
