Really like how meticulous and creative @GrowHard approaches everything. The name applies for sure.

Per usual, the Band-Aid Haze ix 3.0 males are showing first. Of 11 seeds in the pack, they all germinated, and got to about 4 weeks old before I culled 3 of the smallest, slowest, and least exciting plants, leaving me with 8. Of the 8, 3 showed male preflowers so far about 5 weeks into veg. I kept 2, the favorite is pictured above. Great structure, slightly branchier than the rest, quite smelly. The other selected male is a little taller, with a strong floral smell. The male I culled was the tallest plant, more “wild” looking than the rest, and with zero smell.
Above is the group shot, the 2 selected males and the 5 undetermined. I am reasonably confident 4 of the remaining 5 will be females. I’d like to flower 4 Band-Aid Haze females, select the best 2, and pollinate them with the 2 selected males. If I get less than 4 females, there’ll be more space next round for me to throw something else in.
I fully expect these to take over my 4x4 flower tent and run 90 days. Most people report 100 days but I tend to harvest on the earlier side at what I feel to be “peak ripeness” before the plant has started declining. I also run 11/13 light schedule which speeds things up a bit. Clones of the mothers should be even faster, best case scenario, I find a lovely 11 week clone.

Yessirrr! Gonna pop those on October 1st. October till June is my time to grow I’ve decided. July through September…Shitkicker Shed will be closed for maintenance. Too hot!
Hey my man @vernal! What size pot is the first pictured plant in?
I have an older house with No AC. Every year I say I am going to stop in the summer because it just gets to be too much of a pain in the ass to keep em all happy. I would never actually do it, and just stress myself out. I shut it down mid July this year, and I feel kind of empty now. It does give me a chance to get rid of some pests and clean everything up. Just a few more weeks, and I’ll be up and running again.
Hope everything I have sent treats you well. The Scotts OG male has delivered every time so far.

Hey @GrowHard. I am close to defeat in my battle with Texas Heat. I’ve had so many issues this run. Most are heat related except for fans falling over on plants and shit like that. I’m gonna use July and August next summer to do the same…maintenance, improvements and cleaning. Filters need cleaning etc. all love bro…

Day 47. Plant in back left may need 70 days. Everything else will be under 65. My favorite plant, the American Skunk Selection #1 x Afkansastan/X18 Pakistani, in the back right, is already flopping around. Need to snag some stakes. The sisters of that plant have sturdy branches, even being all bud top to bottom. The favorite plant is something nice, it really looks like an OG cut in every way, but only 1/8th it’s lineage is such, the Hell’s Angel OG.
The Christmas Bud IBL female has turned out surprisingly dank. Strong, tart, sharp lemon aroma. Tiny plant but gets surprisingly burly. I can’t wait to cross the Bandaid Haze to it. And, the reverse, use the Christmas Bud male on the select Bandaid female.
The females of next round have been selected. 4 x Bandaid Haze and 1 x (Triangle Kush x G13/HP). The TK x G13HP is the last selected female of the pack. Looks just like her sisters so far. There was the #2 and the #3 cut, I kept the #2, this one is the “D” cut from the second round of germination. Good things to come. There was another Bandaid Haze female, but it was the tallest and rangiest, and I knew I wouldn’t have room for 5 of these, so I kept a cut to run later. They all smell lovely.

Here we have the Triangle Kush x '88 G13/Hashplant at 50 days. This is the frosty cut, beautiful but not as loud or chunky as her sister, who is only ever-so-slightly less frosty. Ran it this round to fill space but not keeping it.
This is the '79 Christmas Bud also at 50 days. Old time Afghani all the way. I was really hoping for something immensely piney, but it instead has a wonderful, pungent lemon pledge thing going on that I just love. Really growing on me.

I think you’re right. I sort of expected the Christmas to finish first, especially on an 11/13 light cycle, but it just keeps swelling slowly. Still fluffy white hairs everywhere. I expected this thing to flower like “Crinkles Magoo” 2.0, but it’s getting much chunkier than anticipated. It’s from a clone, too, not a seed plant.
When space opens here in 2 weeks, we have those 7 '88 G13/HP beans going for a swim, along with a full pack of your Lemon Skunk x SLbx. A few of the Mango Haze x SLbx might make it in, too.
