Papalag : Chronicles of a mad hippie Or what a madman does with three tents, five octopots and a crap load of seeds

I just heard Useful will no longer have Blackened Oranges. :cry: I was hoping to grab a pack at restock. I don’t do SM so I didn’t get in on the auctions.

It is a very tasty strain but not much on yield (blackened oranges) !

I do like useful a lot there bag of skunk and oranges is not only strong but a great yielding plant

Thanks for stopping by

I spent about 3 hrs in trim jail
I did do a complete wet trim this time

If you remember I had bud rot last grow I wanted to examine them as I trimmed a bit closer

Als I want to make hash most of all lol :joy:

The seeds are looking good bro in the seeded plants I’ll be harvesting them last

Once done I’ll post up a list if you’d be interested my friend( @George1961 )
Peace

I’m interested since many months ago frech|nullxnull, something logic after following your good work ejem|nullxnull. I enjoy too growing seeds from people I know (and appreciate), right now started some Mamiilk from Motz (don’t know who to tag now :sweat_smile:).

Had the same problem with white fungus and now I’m afraid of the big colas cry|nullxnull, that’s why I want to try your mainlining, you’re a good guidance … beer3|nullxnull

Hi all , OG it’s time to

Skunk 1🦨

And look at this lady busting out of her tent
She’s at 68 days but definitely needs a bit more I’ll keep her going till 77 trichomes are cloudy maybe 1 % amber

Buds are solid they aren’t as frosty is I would like but building

I did fine late term nanners it’s not a problem it was all due to heat stress the plant is only 2 inches away from the light and nowhere to go

In the main tent


@Tonygreen / karma headband colab back row
calyx brothers monkey bubble front row
All topped at the 3 rd node going to mainline them. These where not clones but mature plants when transplanted into the Octopots I just pruned the roots first ( seem to stay healthy during there transition)
Tops taken will be rooted
Only filled res to the 1 level roots still need to hit the res

Did a germ test on the sk1 x mazer/heri 4 out of the shells one shell head

Trichomes
See the nanner

I smoked a dried bud from my seeded mom
I chopped last week
Nice hi it’s definitely a good smoke

That was my first experience in Octopots. I couldn’t stop the growth. I also had high humidity, leading to a bit of bud rot.

This time, the Octopots are in the taller tent, and they have autos in them, so I’ll have plenty of headroom.

I definitely let this one veg way too long but doable

Hi humidity is always an issue with Octopots , that’s the reason for mainline vs scrog (it helps )
But increase air flow is the key !
I did get bud rot only once using these Octopots learning curve as with everything we do

Thanks for stopping by

Speaking of learning curves!!

3 days into flower. Going to strip everything from the top of my tent to increase headroom!!

Just ordered 6 more for my other tent. Trying the strapped this time. Going to run 4 of the Headbanger/GB seedlings I have and 2 Stardawg clones. Will be sure to have my scrog net in earlier this time!
