@RatsboggleBiological - Well fortunately for everyone I want to make them too! It’s going to happen. Thank you for your support. It means a lot.
And here we are! This is going to be quite the update. So much has changed/updated, been moved, died, grown, etc… there’s a lot to go over! First off, I recently had to leave all my babies for about 3 days. All the indoor ones did good but outdoor… some are crispy…
Anyways here we have Double Jam F4 at day 72 along with one Drunken Bastard which seemed a little on the slower side to get going and finish. She can stay in there a few more days but I’ll be chopping her when she looks more ready. The DJ lady just keeps getting bigger and bigger. I hope she doesn’t start herming after not getting water for 3 days. She was good and soaked when I left but she was used to drinking about a gallon of water per day by herself. I guess if she does herm I don’t have to worry about seeds or anything because she only has ~5 weeks to go. Super excited! In a couple weeks I may not be able to resist temptation and remove one of the beautiful lower buds. They’re about twice the size of the largest Drunken Bastard flowers.
Now you may be thinking… what happened to the others that were in there? That will come next post!
Next we have the only surviving mutants that got put outside. With the high temps we’ve been having they dried up and are pretty crispy right now. Dousing them with oxygenated water didn’t help any so the rest of them might be kaput. Can you tell what they are? No hints!
Now we have the clone chamber. I have a couple BerryFreak(female), DB#1(male), a Duckweb(female), Imperium X (female), Invictus (female), and DB#11 (female). The DB#11 I really need to root because the parent plant got torched outside. It’s a really good thing I took clones before leaving. Even if they don’t root I have a very large DB#11 growing outdoors offgrid. She’s almost 6ft tall and hasn’t even begun to flower. She’s barely showing any pistils out of the small calyxes that are forming. I’m most excited to make F4 seeds with the DB#1 male and DB#11 female because they both have a similar vigor and growth structure. The female smells more like subtle berries than strong blueberries, like most of her sisters. I’m REALLY hoping #11 is one of the purple colored specimen. I have not seen her flowers yet. Anyways, the clones.
The seedlings are Subt 1 x Freakshow F3 mutants selected for Freakshow expressions. I got 4 seedlings to sprout healthily but after being unable to care for them for 3 days… they may not make it. One for sure won’t and I have little hopes for the other 3. Sadly, seedlings are just too fragile to go without care daily, in my humble opinion.
Next the veg tent(which suffered hardly any loss due to haircuts/cloning all around):
Lagkitan:
Funny thing… that herm I culled about a week ago must have bust a nut because several of the females had formed seed pods and were pollinated and growing seeds! This actually gives me very high hopes that the remaining females are not going to herm. If they do, it’s not going to be right away. Of course this is just a hope but I didn’t see any signs of male flowers during this trim session.
Giant Pur Purs:
I’ve been tempted to cull the Duckfoot phenos because I do not really plan on breeding or keeping them. I have the Duckweb terpenes that I would like to breed with as far as Duck genetics goes. However much I may want to cull them, I’m falling for them. The smells are becoming very interesting on the nose, with several flavors coming through and all of them delightful. I will probably flower out the females and keep the lanceolate versions for breeding. I absolutely love the single leaflet specimens. I believe 3 of the 9 are pure lanceolate, 3 are duck, and 3 are lanceolate with up to 3 tips on the lanceolate leaves. If I wasn’t hindered by picture limits I would consider posting individual pictures of each plant because honestly they’re incredible.
V9 Tigers:
The little variegated one is definitely going to get it’s own treatment. It’s so far behind the others due to the extreme variegations which produce no chlorophyll. The others are all getting really interesting! As much as I like the Pur Purs I’m really liking the SWAG leaves! These are definitely going to be much smaller than the Pur Purs but I believe they’re going to be beautiful plants once they really get going.
Here are two Subterfuge#1 x Freakshow F3 seeds selected for ABC expressions. Grow little babies grow! They’re leagues behind the other mutants.
Last but not least we have some keepers in this photo! In the bottom left we have DB#9 who is going to be replaced with
#11, sorry honey. Above her we have the butchered
#1 male. I took 4 clones off him in preparation for my first official seed run. Top left is BerryFreak getting good. To her right we have the Imperium X mom who is going to be a crucial component in a few mutant crosses. On the bottom right we have my Duckweb mom who I haven’t seen completely flower yet but I have seen a few things. Early on in the flowering cycle I got Duckweb to bud and throw tons of pistils like normal. They weren’t pink/red indoors. I was bummed. So I took it, and a BerryFreak who was a sister basically, and threw them both outside. Well turns out at my offgrid setup one of the Duckweb males I had taken over there months ago threw a ton of pollen everywhere. I tried to salvage as much pollen as I could and I brought it back home. I attempted to pollinate DB#3 in the complete dark cycle, as well as the BerryFreak and Duckweb female that were outside. It looks like it was a success, but with some drawbacks. Since it’s still veg season… the DW and BF started revegging after being pollinated. The calyx was still forming seeds but leaves were starting to grow out again which was odd. Long story short I have 1 good Duckweb seed that I’ve actually created. 1 lol… I also have about 20 BerryFreak x Duckweb F1s but they’re very immature. None of them have a tan/dark color to them. They’re all mostly green. I don’t have high hopes but they produce a plant or two.
Lastly, here’s a shot I like to include every once in a while of both the top and bottom of the veg tent. To showcase to others that it’s possible to maximize your indoor space!
