Ris-ski Business - an ongoing grow log

I didn’t exactly follow up on that last post very well. For that Im sorry. I wont go in to too much detail here but I have been dealing with some personal stuff. Regrettably,I let my garden die and now have to deal with the situation that puts me in. I wont have flower for quite some time now and thats probably what i deserve. Im going to be starting a new grow in may.

I appreciate ya brother. Im just in a funk. Ill bounce back.

Totally not necessary but I appreciate the thought.

This community is a testament to the best of humanity. To me, its the original spirit of the internet. It’s a global network where genuine connections flourish. Here, knowledge flows freely, diverse perspectives enrich discussions, and personal experiences are shared openly. It’s a self-regulated entity where everyone contributes for the greater good. There’s no hierarchy, no power struggles; every voice is valued equally. It’s remarkable to witness countless acts of selflessness every day, a testament to the inherent goodness in people. And what brought us all together? A simple shared passion for cannabis.

Well Its time to get seeds in the ground once again. I am looking for quick flower, this buying from the dispos is starting to wear on my pocket, paying way too much for what i’m getting in quality wise. Going to go ahead and just stick with the basics. Living soil, maybe tea and then nothing but PH water. I got a soil PH meter so I should be able to keep that aspect controlled. Im going with three different strains with two seeds of each of the following. Alien OG, Alien Cherry Kush and Shockwave. Below are the descriptions.

Alien OG - Aeque Genetics

Alien Cherry Kush - Aeque Genetics

Alien-Cherry-Kush-auto-fem-by-Aeque-Genetics

Genetics: Cherry Cola X Alien vs Triangle
Variety: Indica
THC: 23-26%
CBD: 1%

Completely cleaned out the 4 x 8 and now I’m bringing it all down so I can move it out of the garage and switch it with the 4 x 4.

Then I’ll be moving the six autos into the 4 x 4 upstairs and getting the 4 x 8 ready for an all photo run.

It’s a day full of cleaning, disinfecting and moving tents. :nerd_face:

Should Seeds ever happen from either of them, I’ll be sure to top you up.

Have a great Summer !

i’m going to have to start a couple of mine for my next grow, that’ll be a while though. i was thinking of using the apollo 11 in another cross so i have to see if it’s any good in this cross. it’s nice to see this one is still alive. i figured it was long gone.

Looks like I wrote a post and forgot to submit it… :expressionless:

Well, the auto is doing fine, even in the hot ass garage. Now for some fun stuff.

I am dropping seeds tonight. I will not be posting actual names of strains but instead refer to them as type A or B numbered 1-5 each for a total of 10 seeds.

Not much else has been going on in my tent. I just haven’t been in the mood.

I had one seedling dud out on me. But the rest look pretty good. I’ll be moving them into starter cups soon. My next update will be once the are established and in cups before transplanting to their final home in a 5gal pot.
