Forget Mendel. Let’s beat this dead horse and see what happens.
Filling pots now. Join me this winter for the adventure.
If You have a freakshow hybrid please share it in this link
Pics will be added to tell the story.
This is going to be one Massive adventure, 100+ freaks
Watching this to the end…
Good luck on the hunt Mr.
Sounds like a fun run. I’m definitely following for this one. What do you use for your starter mix?
been mixing soil since I made the post.
This grow has Promix, coir, verm, perlite, worm castings, espoma raised bed mix, coast of main bumper crop.
Been in trim jail all day. Looks like its gonna be one more week before I have time to sow these beans. atleast I am almost there ready.
To further complicate this it is an auto flower cross. So I am hunting for two recessive genes.
I am direct sowing to give any auto freak the best chance.
Goodluck with the project, I like your ambition of sowing 100 seeds to hunt through! Not something I see every day
That sounds like so much work. Good luck to you. I think the note taking and culling will be a significant task. I hate to cull plants. I usually put them outside to die instead lol. Sometimes the weather keeps them alive for months. Sometimes i even water them.
In any event i heard some breeders will use solo cups or 1/2 gallon bags to save space and substrate. Even still 100 plants is a big undertaking. I hope you find what you’re looking for. I’ll be stopping in to check in on your progress.
100% brother! I still have two holding on.
@PsillyRabbit may the force be with you on this adventure
(Freakshow x Banana daddy ibl auto) x (Freakshow x Banana daddy ibl auto)
Dun it. Directly sowed 30 two gallon bags with 3 seeds in each bag. I put a white seed in the middle and darker seeds on top and bottom.
45 seeds from two differnt selected females.
I will cull/ re sow until I have at least two freaks in each bag. Minus a few bags for space. Run 20 hours until I know if they are autoflower.
Kill anything that is in a bag with an auto.
Move all photos to second tent.
In the second tent i have 30 quarts filled with F1s( same male freakshow) BX to Freakshow. 15 dark seeds 15 white seeds.This will be crossed with a photoperiod F2 to make a Fast flower freak line.
10 one gallons with the F1 BX to Banana daddy auto. one of these will be crossed with male auto freak just for the hell of it. (fingers crossed i have a male auto freak)
If yall dont mind waiting for the f3s or these F2s/ BXs are of interest I can make a contest based off of the grid they are planted.
