Holy's Garden (Part 2)

Gave it a read. Looks fantastic, definitely more on the heady sour og side of things.

Interesting! My original one came from FJ a few years ago. Before he did all the HLVD testing. I didnā€™t see that 7 bladed version from him until later. IDK if or anything happened in between there or not :man_shrugging:

So far this rarebuyer version is looking pretty much the same as my original cut. See if that continues. Some minor leaf things stick out to me but could be from the obvious water/nute issues. See if the stem rub changes as she gets into flower too.

I kept mine pretty dang stress free and still got herms everywhere. The males would throw hairs out of the balls or have both balls and calyx, usually in veg. Rest made it to week 2-3 of flower before they did it.

Damn! I donā€™t mind intersex males (pls donā€™t flame) but intersex females is definitely no good

Just keep an eye out :wink:
At least a few have found some stable ones.

I believe they may both have the same cut, but neither would admit it. I havenā€™t seen a side by side grow, but there was a lot of discussion on Leetā€™s old Discord server a while back which make me think there is an actual differenceā€¦ In different grows (FJā€™s pix vs. Rarebuyers pix) the TK origins cut ā€œappearedā€ to have rounder tops vs FJā€™s clearly triangular tops. :man_shrugging: But they were grown in different environments so there was no actual validation of any true difference

Iā€™m so glad I donā€™t need to babysit these folks anymore or their customers :sweat_smile:

Are you sure you really miss it? :joy::joy:

I am glad you are free from the negative aspects of that service too. It was a positive and thriving forum for free speech, but then the overly-uninhibited ones opened up a pandoras box which contained a black hole that consumed everything :sweat_smile: :raised_hands:

Farmer joe pointed out to me it was a mistake mixing friendship and money.

I canā€™t say he was wrong, even though Iā€™ve made some amazing friends and connections thru that experience.

People just donā€™t respect each other online unless theyā€™re forced to, and there were many factors that compromised the integrity of the whole situation.

When the moderator team has strong attachments to the clone vendors, or similar scenarios, thatā€™s a recipe for failure

Well I should hopefully be getting my original one back at some point here. Iā€™m not changing anything for this run of the RB TK compared to my others so just have to see what happens I guess. Iā€™ve grown mine enough I should be able to tell a difference before then. Ive already thought so since the day I got it but it is mostly the same too. Big thing was the stem rub being off. See if more time on my feed and flower changes that or not. If it doesnā€™t start smelling like the original one Iā€™ve had, I know itā€™s different. Donā€™t need to see anything else :joy: see which one is better tho :eyes:

This is all sounding VERY much like the story when you first ran the cut that you got from me (from FJ). You waffled back and forth for a good while thinking it was and was not the legit cut. Maybe that means since youā€™re having the same feelings again about this Rarebuyer cut you got from me, that it is indeed the same cut. Just a theory! Seems pretty much the same to me so far but wonā€™t know until itā€™s flowered and smoked. Excited to have you run it before me!

Is the one you sent me the one from rarebuyer? I have another clone of Triangle I know is from Farmer joe

Yep thatā€™s from Rarebuyer.

Looks like I may be flowering them side by side, I need to verify :metal: I did think they looked different somehow, but I put the rarebuyer in rockwool and FJā€™s came in a solo cup filled with promix so I dismissed that observation.

This was what I had been observing from the Rarebuyer cut you sent me vs the FJ cutā€¦ the FJ cut (solo cuo) has always had these 3-fingered leaves at the very bottom nodes, whereas the Rarebuyer cut seems to go directly to 5-fingered leaves from the get-go with fewer and more randomly set random 3-fingered leaves here and thereā€¦ so I believe my observations might confirm Holyā€™s observation that the Rarebuyer cut ā€œappearsā€ to be a different cut than the FJ cut due to the fingering of its leaf growth.

When I got the snips from Rarebuyer they were in immaculate health. Roots in 10 days or less which I never had with the FJ cut. I canā€™t really speak to the differences though because all my cuts are growing a little different since I switched away from organics. Everything is just so much healthier during all stages now. Previously my grows were like slow starvation. Almost like different plants for me on this octopup run.
