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

Well, do remember, that IS an auto, and my first two were 80-82 days seed to harvest, so it does have a decent growth rate. I soaked him/her at 4 nodes. Current 4 ladies are on track for being cut 2nd week of october at the current rate (germed 7/26). They have really stretched. There is a northern lights auto from seedsman, and a pair of blueberry herer autos from @Rabeats2093 that were germed the same time and they havent even begun to stretch yet.

I must say, having grown bagseed in the past. I definitely can see differences in plants apart from the really obvious leaf shape or color. The black creams seem to have opposing branches at each node up to the 4th node. After that, they start alternating sides (more like how a clone would branch). There appears to be two general structures, one with lots of branches, and more smaller buds, and the other being more donkey dick like and less branches. Might even be that the branches just stay super tight to the main stem, vs some literally grow 6-8" out, then 45 degree angle up. Stark contrast to the northern lights auto which is more dense, and has opposing branches all the way up so far (7 or 8 nodes now). The blueberry herer stays shorter, but is fatter, but hasn’t stretched yet. Neat for me since bagseed was always just random, and you never had any sort of identifieable traits that were repeatable.

I can only imagine what you are able to see being able to run so many of a given type, and the various types over the years. Nuances within strains, etc…

lol. my male (1 so far LOL) is relegated to the 2x2 love shack. You got a whole room for them. Spoiled boys! ROFLMAO

Is that stuff suggested to spray before flowering? I’ve got the Pennywise and will be buying some of that stuff this week in case I don’t get a male. I passed the fourth node quite awhile ago at this point :laughing: I probably would have flipped already if I wasn’t waiting to get my hands on some of that spray.

Ok, 5AM- 5PM is timeframe for on/off lighting. Here’s a few pics of the boys and boys-to-be. One of the sacrificial has died RIP, but most are showing recovery and getting new growth in the centers where sprayed.
The GDPB boys are doing fine, putting out lots and lots of flowers to drop pollen from.
The last shot is a ‘group pic’ everyone smile for the camera!













@Rabeats2093 , here’s what they look like at the moment, recovering from the spray and soon to become proud boys, I hope!
I tag you, because it’s through your OGenerosity this is even happening using the EliteXelite ‘one-and-done’

I wonder what’s in it that causes such burning. Makes me think there’s alcohol or some wetting agent that forces the plant to take up the target chemical systemically really quickly. That would explain the massive cell damage to the leaves.

It could also be me lol I sprayed the HELL outta them 8 plants! Hey, it said to spray to the point of dripping saturation…and I damn sure DID!

Although it wasn’t the entire plant, since I wanted to make sure I got all of that 8 strains to preserve. I wasn’t sure how far a 2ounce bottle would go, but I shot for the max… picking and choosing selective nodes. All on the upper parts of the plants.

lol one thing you can be sure of. I check them things many times a day…in fact every time I go by that room on my way to the bathroom or whatever. lol So, if/when they DO start producing pods…y’all will know pretty damn quick! :rofl: :+1:

Oh no, I’m sure it’s doing just what it’s supposed to! It’s supposed to be one and done after all. I’m just curious about the method. The loss of leaves isn’t a big deal.

Thank you kindly.

I wasn’t sure with the autos, but figured since the instructions (written for photos it seems) said to spray, then flip to 12/12, that spraying before seeing hairs might be a good idea. I probably pushed it to just before she started throwing hairs, soaked her with eXe. Figured thats close to the flip, just auto-style lol. Seeing a lot of balls is making me happy, now if they start dropping pollen, and its viable and I have seeds in a month or two, I’ll be VERY happy… I didn’t use much of the 2oz spray bottle honestly. Can easily do another 4-6 plants of the same size…

They said spray completely, and I soaked mine completely… Be curious since you sprayed selected sites, and I soaked the whole plant, if there’s a difference in seeing results…

lol, I just see Johnny, sittin on the pot, noticing some pods, and updating via his cell phone, right on the (s)pot. LOL… “Here’s a pic for ya from the 2nd best seat in the house!” LOL

Well, its staying true, both are shorter… but in 3G pots now…

Well that kind of sucks. Guess I’m going to veg until they sex then. I was planning to flip, identify, spray. Glad I asked though!

I didn’t know that about you

Why not experiment? lol. Johnny only sprayed certain sites, not the whole plant. I wonder how much effort it would be to reverse a female showing pistils already.

I think the benefit of the eXe is reversing known fem seeds… And for fem autos, it would be a crapshoot as you aren’t growing and searching phenos the same as with photos. At least I wasn’t. Just hit one this time, but I suppose hitting 3 would be a safer bet for getting viable pollen. Just don’t have the seeds / space to do that just yet lol

Lol. context man… context… focus! da plant! da plant! :smiley:

I’ve been thinking about that lately. I’m planning on doing an auto reversal project this winter, for a nice supply of different auto fem seeds that I can grow outdoors next season and for gifting. My plan is to reverse the most vigorous ones, with the best stem rubs and good branching.

LOL @Nagel420 , First off, I don’t use my phone to come here I’m ‘tech challenged’ and can’t type worth crap on it!.. not that I can type worth a crap on this keyboard either! But at least I can do a good imitation lol
Second…The throne is for one thing only, lol I don’t read and write and other such distractions there!! :rofl: :+1:

The difference in your and my spraying isn’t going to be a big factor here I’m thinking.
The Auto might show faster is about it. I sprayed pretty much all the nodes for the entire top half of the plants, since they’re bunched in the room under that one light, and I felt the bottoms wouldn’t get as much light to help anything that might come from there.

Naturally they all will have a couple of select plants pollenated with Sour60 and GDPB dust, both. :crazy_face: :+1:

I might have to skip the eXe and go with the silver then for this particular run. Both are new to me so I guess at the end of the day it’s not a big deal. With any luck I’ll buy one or the other and get the male I need anyway. On top of making more Pennywise seeds I want as much pollen as I can get too. I want to hit a branch of everything in my upcoming auto runs with it, make some CBD versions of a ton of stuff.
