Johnnypotseed’s 3-ring circus - with autos, photos & sex…reversals, that is! (Part 1)

Yes, always learning, it’s the best thing we can do :grin:

Most of my grows I only use a bit of molasses, compost tea, bean sprout tea, sea weed, good soil. I’m cheap but the soil is rich lol. If you learn to make compost, feed the soil, it’s the best way to put the good back in the earth. Complete the cycle. :grinning:

:heart: yes, I feel it bro. The time has come!!

I’ve been doing just that!! Have a compost on the side, mix perlite with a peat moss soil, feed it molasses, some organic egg shell which sat in vinegar, fermented roots extract etc… Still feel I’m not feeding enough though! LOL!

Ok, I did the head count to see what I’ve got left in the large group of Sour 60 from @cannabliss. After removing the 36 boys, there’s 146 left and they’re really starting to take off. I like what I see here! according to the timing schedule I have 39 days left, so I’m hoping to see some good bit of buds soon. lol I’m keeping 3-4 of the nicest males to gather pollen from, and then a couple of the remaining ladies will get isolated and pollinated, so as to make some seeds for future crops.
There are 45 of the Auto Xtreme fems from @Chronickyle, I put them into the budroom for the proper lighting schedule of 20/4.

I’m debating which to go with for some nice crosses, either Bruce Banner or GG#4. I have some regular Autos of each and would hope for a boy from either, for the pollen. Hell, I guess I’ll just do both! lol Then use the pollen from each on several girls of every strain I’ll have going to give me a bit of seeds to pass out on OG. :wink: :smile: :sunglasses: :+1:

They show signs that fast. Crazy. Good eye

Crazy to see that many of the sour 60 grown I have never been able to flower more than a dozen at most very cool to see everything looking great as usual hope you and the wife are doing good this fine rainy day

What I wrote is the online history, at least how it’s presented in most forums and articles. I don’t care very much either, I just think Neville has quite enough credit to his name already, so perhaps no big harm in giving another some, if that is how it happend.

Thanks for the info, @momo420 … I stand corrected. All I know is the Autos weren’t worth bothering with when they first came on the scene. I changed my mind only this year., and even then was only out of desperation to get caught up for the year! :sunglasses: :+1:
I still have all my photoperiod mothers and clones in vegging, waiting for their turn ‘up to bat’ again lol
Later this year…

…and will be going back to my photoperiods as soon as I can! I might keep some of the Auto crosses I plan on doing for ‘between crops’ of the photos, but… meh… I’m not in love with em like I love my regular strains/crosses :rofl: :rofl: :wink: :sunglasses: :+1:

Guess that’s just the ‘oldschool’ in me rearing it’s head! :rofl: :+1:

Ok, I’ll post pics, soon as I get back in from the barn later this morning.
But, here’s the situation as it stands now…In order to keep the perpetual going with a schedule of about every 2 weeks, I’m dropping more beans this morning. Prepped the castings tray yesterday. I’ll be dropping about 150-175 of;
GDP Blast from @cannabliss
Bruce Banner Auto reg,
Narcotic Moustache Auto reg
Killer Cookie Auto fem

The game plan is to get a couple males from the regular Autos and use those, along with the few boys I kept of the Sour60, to pollinate a couple of each strain that can pollinated in the budroom at the moment. Some are too far along to pollinate (Snowryder and Pink Panama) but all of the rest should be within the timeframe needed to make nice healthy mature seeds!
Some will be used to continue my future rotation schedule, while I’ll be getting other seeds out to the great folks here on OG.
I’m glad to see such interest from so many of you good people, I appreciate any and all comments/suggestions/tips…
Stay Tuned for further info!! :wink: :smile: :sunglasses: :+1:

Here is the pics I took just a moment ago after going out to the barn. lol I couldn’t wait until my ‘normal time’ of 5:30 to get started so went out at 5 :sunglasses: :smile:

First up is the new drop of GDP, Narcotic Moustache, Killer Cookie, and Bruce Banner, all Autos, of course. With only the Killer Cookies being fem, the rest are all regular. I’m hoping for some boys out of each of the regulars…

Next i thought I’d toss in a couple pics of my photoperiod mothers and clones just waiting patiently, and being nice…




![IMG_1263|375x500](upload://98LtvfTyooYFbd81Sdqp4s![IMG_1264|554x500]

Now, on to the budroom where everything is going smoothly. First is the Pink Panama and Snowryder, getting their ‘grow’ on


Then the Cinderevil

Now for the Xtreme & XtremeX

Onto the Sour 60, also coming along nicely


And finally, the Xtreme

I’ve already made room for the new batch coming in soon.
That’s the show for today folks!

Can I move next door to you sir? Outstanding ladies!

Any plans to save any auto pollen if ya get some boys? If ya do, I’d love some, GDP and Bruce Banner of course!

Its a little strange for me wishing for males. All my life they were killed on sight, now I’m in a different place :slight_smile: I wanna make more babies! LOL

This place does that to you it did me at least it makes you rethink your whole grow lol making beans becomes a priority of all the things I have learned on here the importance of seed making is the most important in my opinion at least and @JohnnyPotseed looking amazing sir and can’t wait to see the new beans begin there journey

I meant to say something when I saw it but forgot. Did you say the Sour 60 is legit 60 days from seed to harvest?

lol Not the ‘first’ priority …but has always definitely been up there, for me, and thanks for the kind words!

lol Slow down! I haven’t even made any pollen yet! Let alone harvested and used… I have no idea what mother nature is gonna toss at me this go round, I’m ‘hoping’ for some males, and plan on using probably most of what I do get. It remains to be seen just how much, that’s going to determine what happens, really. :smile: :sunglasses: :+1:
Remember, this IS a commercial operation here…the main goal is to produce sellable flower, second is to get enough pollen to produce enough seeds for any of my future batches and then is to be able to send seeds out into the OGniverse…

But after all is said and done, if there’s any pollen left I would probably be willing to share, yes. lol
Also, thank you for the kinds words, @Nagel420
