Had been posting in the Free Seeds Free clones Grow Show thread, but decided I might as well just post here.
I probably won’t do too many updates, but here we go…
Mind Eraser (seeds from @LegsMahoney) The right pheno is still about twice as tall as the left (terrible focus on these pics, sorry). In coco with Jack’s 3-2-1
Cowboy Cookies (GMO x StarDawg) F2. I made fem seeds from the F1 trying to learn how to use STS. It worked. This plant looks nothing like the F1s. Guessing this is StarDawg leaning. In coco. I was out of town and left my SO to take care of the plants. Came back, and some looked a lot better than when I left.
I was just using anything I had that I thought would up the potency of the ABC.
After this run, I’m going to work those ABC crosses to select for better potency with the ABC leaf type. I really want to be able to grow outdoors, but can’t risk it where I live.
@PineTarBastard also gave me some things to help with my outdoor goals.
I’ve got these plants in two tents-a 4x4 with two Kingbrite 240W LEDs and a 2x4 with a Spider Farmer LED.
On the left side of the 4x4 I have four plants in Coco being fed Jack’s 3-2-1. The plants are:
(2) Mind Eraser (Cannatonic x Oogie Boogie)
Sebring’s Revenge
Cowboy Cookies F2
On the right side are 5 Plants in soil being fed a mix of organic stuff:
Eutierria
Trainwreck x GG4RIL
Point Break
(2) ABC
In the 2x4 I have the plants that were all pollenated by a male ABC:
88G13xSBT
TWxGG4RIL
ABC
The soil mix I made is 1/3 peat moss, 1/3 cheap bagged compost from a big box store, and 1/3 aeration. As I add to my volume of soil, I have used different things for aeration (pumice, small lava rocks, rice hulls, perlite). The amendments are mostly things from Build A Soil (crab meal, karanja, basalt, etc.) and stuff I had (Azomite, feather meal, kelp meal, alfalfa meal, dolomite, gypsum, rock phosphate, greensand, and BioLive). When the nutrients start to run out in flower, I add Flower Girl and ground malted barley and top dress with EWC. Sometimes I add molasses to the water, and sometimes I add Recharge.
Nothing scientific to what I do. Just winging it and trying to get a feel for what the plants are telling me. I usually get to mid flower and things get off kilter, but this run is going well so far.
That’s longer than I was expecting. Yours looks good.
I’m growing mine (along with the Mind Eraser and Sebring’s Revenge) for a relative who needs CBD.
Your relative should like it if it turns out like mine did. My wife bought a mini canna lab from Amazon last Oct to test the THC content. Not sure how accurate they are but the results we got were 2 : 1 CBD/THC at 20%/10%. It smokes great
Very nice! That is a pretty good ratio range indeed, one of my go to ratios. I had been curious about some sort of home test to look at CBD levels between phenotypes when I get deep into my breeding project. If accurate enough, it could save me tons of money doing lab testing.
