@Organical Dude, I really appreciate the report!!! You knocked it out of the park from seed to trim here, and the photos you’ve taken are just top tier! Warm blueberry poptarts sound quite enticing Can’t wait to hear how the pressing goes
As for things on my end - I’m just enjoying a nice stress free flower run as the conditions during summer are pretty dialed without much effort. Got 9 ladies in 5gals packed in the 4x4, one week into flower
The 2x4 is pretty packed as well but I’ve still got some males to suss out in that tent.
In other news, my Sugarplum Skunk finished its first round in the RnD table at the rec facility my friend works for. They chopped at day 65 and sent some off for lab testing - Still waiting on those results
The SPS has been growing really well for people from the reports I’ve seen come back. Got three phenos going myself right now, and just received some crosses that one of my friends made with stinky oily male he found in his pack
Disco Bubble week 9. Probably 2 weeks left. Turned out nice. Has almost a sour smell to it. Quite pleasing. Looking forward to sampling it. Check out the lowers, lots of frost.
Dude! I appreciate the update! Glad you were able to get that one going - she looks like she’s leaning towards the glitter bomb! She has a strong floral blueberry profile so it’s nice to hear there’s some sour coming through from the lime bubble. I hope it finishes up real nice for you. Looking forward to the end result man!
I wish I took a picture of the parchment paper right after pressing - it was partially crystalized on the edges right out the press. I barely even needed the cooling plate too. I’m new to pressing as well but very interesting and different texture than the half a dozen or so other strains I’ve done.
Great effects, right to the moon with this stuff. It lost a bit of the warm blueberry poptart nose, but still there and tasty as hell - I get some more earthiness in the rosin vs the flower but it’s really pleasant.
The yield was moderate, about 12%. To put that in context, my best was 19% so a moderate pull for me.
I hope you get a chance to rip some of this in rosin form eventually my friend @9mag ! It’s fire stuff, and the appearance is crazy good. Most of my presses of other varietals end up more of a thick honey consistency - so far only this and the Blackout Lemonaid from @Soiltech have produced what I would consider high quality rosin.
Whew!! That looks like some liquid gold there! Didn’t last long hahah. Really glad it pressed some HQ rosin for ya man. Appreciate the updates as always my dude!
Here’s an early flower look at the Topanga Pure Kush x Ultimate Pink Kush X Gushy Kush - the smells coming of this plant have a strong zesty incense. The build really reminds me of pure OG lines I’ve grown, but we will see with time.
I got two males from the same line - I threw them outside when they showed sex. One of them has the same incensed stem rub as the one I have in flower. The other, however, has a dead on orange spice candy rub. Seeing as I used three males in the project, I’m assuming either strong variance or different dads bringing a different twist. Either way, I’ve been on the hunt for some enjoyable orange/citrus terps. I know I said no seed making this go but I don’t want the pollen from this orange spice male to go with the wind.
So I snagged a lemon tree clone from archive. I’ll be hitting this with said male to make some seeds I can look through when I’m ready for the citrus hunt.
Here are some that had my eyes from the beginning for various reasons. They ladies were the first to show preflowers, ahead of any of the plants I ran this season. They also bud with some large funky crowns that were giving me seeded vibes but just ended up being chunkies, has a good old school stench and stickiness.
This one I posted earlier - it’s one of 2 Thunder Eggs - she’s got an elegant smell to her. Her sister is purple but with a different structure and frost about her.
Slime Line - there was something pleasant about its nose, I just don’t recall at this moment, I do remember enjoying it. I’ll be taking notes at harvest.
The work you’ve put in does not go unappreciated! That Chem Pop looks like quite the plant. I didn’t get many seeds from the mother, I will definitely be looking into that line. I can’t wait to see these cross the finish line, and I really hope you get a ton of enjoyable flower to rummage through!!!
Looking forward to seeing who really comes through with the smoke!!!
Not much breeding going on - Just enjoying a flower run and testing some lines!
The Skunk Ooze is really shaping up to be a nice plant. Very very frosty. Sticky like a flytrap. Deep, complex chemical notes, burnt rubber, and astringent pine. Still a couple weeks to go here
Popped a single seed of a pack I’ve been wanting to look into. Sundae Driver x Zawtz by Cannarado. Cool structure, moderate yield, and awesome sour floral terps. Like a lemon peel potpourri.
Cap Junky from Blimburn - Puny yield, looks crazy dank, finishing fast. Some orange cleaner chem thing going on with the nose. Sandpaper trichs, not too sticky/oily.
Got another plant pollenated as well. This Skunk Ooze was last to show sex so it didn’t get a spot in my tents - Tossed it outside and pollenated the entire thing with a really nice Sugarplum Skunk male I found this run. This Skooze has a much more citrus cleaner vibe on the nose than the one pictured above.
And lastly, I’d still love to get some of these more recent crosses I’ve made out to people who are interested in testing a couple. Sitting on quite a few packs of the Skunk Ooze (Skunk Venom ‘Emerald Cup cut’ x Lime Bubble) pictured above. Seriously just holla, I’m sitting on lots of stuff
Hope everyone is having a great end of Summer! I sure am. Now to enjoy some of this facility grown Sugarplum Skunk - What a trip!!! Loving this stuff for a nice uppy daytime driver.
Quick Eucharist update
First round of the clones almost there. In spite of me they are lookin pretty good. Still smellin yummy. #2 is fightin for her life right now( as far as which pheno imma keep playin with), and she’s makin a statement too. Im pretty sure there are seeds , i remember seeing some form but dont see them really now. These have been a real pleasure to grow. Crazy thing is I know im a milion miles away from gettin these to exspress to there highest potential ( within the limitations of my environment and skills), but am already in love . Nice work on these bro!
Dude! Thanks for the update on those. Really awesome to hear you kept them around for another run. They looks killer dude, how did the flower from your first run treat ya? Enjoyable smoke?
Also, did I send ya anything else? If you’re looking to try something new I got you!!! Just LMK!
The smoke from these to is hella delightful,. delish is another word that comes to mind, smells like fruity with a delicate floral thing lingering around… I over shared these 2 and everyone loved them. the high is good, kinda puts me right in the pocket, not dragin me down i can get stuff done , but if I opt for a nap im at peace. My bags got small quick if that says anything. I still got a bunch of clones so no worries about fillin um back up lol.
I haven’t recieve anything else from you yet. I still gotta pop the Tropical wine before I can bring myself to ask for more. Please save me something with that Lime bubble in it though, What im seeing has me so intrigued.
