Hello OG
I figured I’d start up a new thread I’ll be closing out the last run soon so here it goes
Just placed in shot glasses with room temp water 4 seeds each regular 2 fems
Line Up
BOG boggle gum group buy thanks to @Hugh_Glass
Lefthanded seed Panama haze x Lebanese thanks @lefthandseeds
Orange Goji received from @Mongobongo
Oregon huckleberry from the preservation run ( forgive me I do remember who ran the f3 )
Useful seeds fem blackened oranges
Need to find 5 females for the Octopots only the strongest ones will make the cut
I’m using promix bx with mycorrhizae and perlite in the mix no other additives
The best fem after a couple of weeks will go straight in to the Octopots in the 24 x 24 x 60 tent
And I’ll do a fluxing or Manifold style ( whatever they call it these days ) she’ll be grown to the 6 node and topped at the third node object is to go for 8 colas and veg for about 3 weeks after the fluxing
The rest will need to sex and the best will go in the big tent in the Octopots as well
Thanks lefty so am I I haven’t had a haze since back in the day so I am really looking forward to it
And it’s my state went legal today what better way to celebrate
Excuse me while I pull the ole beanbag into that corner over there. Slippers, Tv Remote and, a large Mug of Hot Tea will tide me over. I’m ready for the Show. Good luck, stay safe and…be well.
Another Octopot grower here. The plants seem to love them. I grew the same strain, side-by-side with some in fabric pots and some in Octopots. They had the same genetics and environment (same soil mix, nutes, light, etc.). The ones in Octopots significantly outperformed the ones in plain fabric pots.
I think you get the benefits of both soil and hydro while avoiding many of the pitfalls they each have. The convenience factor is nice too. The reservoir holds several gallons, so even when the plant is in heavy flower and drinking like crazy you only have to check on them every few days. In early veg I could leave town for a week’s vacation and not have to worry about the plants. There are no “moving” parts, no pumps, no timers, no electricity - fewer points of failure. I’m definitely a fan.
I’ll be following along. Lots of great strains. I’m also interested in octopots. I almost bought some while chatting with Jetdro but never pulled the trigger. Excited to see what you do with them.
Ooo BOGgle gum and orange goji, two I can’t get enough reading about. Going to watch this since I can’t sprout my Sour Boggle for a while. I do have orange Goji F2s going right now in the 16oz contest .
Checked the shot glasses this morning 18 hours in water none open all sank but 1 bog & 1 PH x L
So I just may drop 1 more of each to be safe
I normally leave them in the water for 24 hours then in to paper towels till tails are 1/4 to 1/2 inches long
Then they’ll go in to solo’s for 2 weeks ( pro mix only)
I’ll start with T5 lights low wattage I find low wattage is the best for the babies even a 100 watt led is fine
I do leave seedlings under lights for 24/ 7 then I drop them to 18/6 once established
