Reset my phone today before backing up my data from Grow Tracker and lost all the stats on the goji’s Going to try and go off what I wrote here.
Anyways, I think its 3 days in now to soaking? And the last 2 Goji OG F3’s still have not popped yet, not sure they’ll make it. 1 of the 4 that did pop has come up out of the root riot. I put that one in there with the tap root pointing up as it was maybe 1/8th of an inch long and it curled back down and took the seed shell off in the pod before coming up! No helmet head! Going to have to remember that.
We’re 54 days into flower on the 3 seeded girls. I picked off a small bud on the bottom-branch middle-node, of the Franco’s Lemon Cheese, in order to inspect how the seed growing is going…
2 Decent looking seeds and 1 not so much
Definitely going to give her a couple more weeks but I think I’ll have created my own seeds for the first time! However
If I only got 3 out of this bud… Maybe 100 Seeds per plant? No idea what to expect really. Only a month or so to go to start finding out… Hoping to have enough to be able to give out some to at least a few people here + testers and still have plenty left for my own hunting.
Here’s some trichome shots of that same bud from before I took the seeds out
Normally I’d give her another week and possibly chop
but I want to make sure these seeds get done right and will be viable. Thinking of calling them FLC IX 1.0 for short?
Regardless, I want to find a better male in my NL5HSS…F2’s? I feel like these were already F2’s… or 3’s, I know these seeds were from at least a second open pollination Mel Frank did so would think at least F3’s buuuut they were open pollination so… basically still like F1’s? I only saw 2 pheno’s really… but then again I only grew 4 plants My current male, #1, while he matches all the #5 girls growing patterns and more leaf blades, I think has a bud structure a little more similar to the #4 Girl and the FLC. I prefer the longer cola structure the #5 girl has. But we’ll have to grow out his progeny to see what gets passed along to find out so… fun times
The NL5HSS #4 girl is looking like 10-11 weeks from pistil/bud looks, and then trichome inspection.
The #5 is for sure at least 11 weeks, maybe a bit longer. Still a ton of white hairs on her. Didn’t even bother inspecting her trichomes.
They’ll get as long as it takes. I’m not in any real rush, though I will need to move the other #5 clone into flower in a couple weeks here before she gets too big. I need a bigger tent!
