Yeah I get it. Im in a similar scenario. Dont want to flower anything til I have it cloned, but then my plant counts start to go way up by trying to keep a clone around until I can tell whether its worth keeping.
If I could just pop and flower seeds, I could try more stuff but would run the risk of losing something great.
I have taken clones up to 3 weeks into bloom without issue in the past. It is difficult with new genetics because of the variables ie, environment, nutrient requirements. Once you lock in your genetics it is much easier to schedule your grow in a perpetual sense. Just my thoughts.
That’s my problem! I’m searching (17 strains so far) for my wife’s favorite medicine, currently Pure OG Kush, gifted to me by @MadScientist.
I’ll have to try that, if/when necessary. I usually cut, up pot & flip to 12/12 on the same day. I’ve cloned the last OG Kush plant twice already. I might have a keeper in OG #2, but it’s starting week 7 of flowering. I’ll have to read up on re-vegging, quickly!
Yeah, thats a great point. So hard being on OG to not want to constantly pop new gear after seeing all the awesome breeding projects, the seed sharing, etc. Gotra balance the known, consistwnt strains with trying new ones!
Don’t ever forgo being on the water for me. I’m and avid fly fisherman and nothing beats being alone with a bowl and your rod and standing in the middle of a blue ribbon trout fishery. I often don’t even care if I catch anything.
The grow must go on! lol. I’m getting things in order as we type. I share your love of trout fishing. I haven’t used my boat in years. I’m sure I’ll find time to fish. The Rainbows & Smelt are starting their run NW of here, and I’m blessed to have a Class 1 (blue ribbon?) trout stream a mile down the road. I’ll email you today about my plans. Take care.
Unlimited uploads, Yippie! I substituted Delirious #4 for the shorter, White Queen I gave to my son. The Delirious, OG & Queen were chopped before lights on.
420 was a very good day. I soaked seeds for the outdoor grow, a new led light showed up, and the Delirious (cured 2 weeks), lived up to it’s name! Great smoke .
Hi All. One week later, it’s harvest time I chopped the OG’s & White Queen. Delirious #4 has 2 more weeks to go. I’ve never had OG Kush turn purple before.
Just stepped out from trim jail to give an update. I upgraded the closet light with a HLG 320XL QB288 Rspec. What a difference! It’s so much brighter than the 435w Dominator II in the flower tent.
Greetings OG fam. Hoping everyone is healthy and safe . The Delirious clones got chopped this morning. They’re smaller plants, but the nugs are solid, and smell like cat piss or skunk. It depends on how much I’ve smoked that day.
Trim jail is getting old, but our governor gave me plenty of time LOL!
The sex test results came back. Both Sour Blu Tooth were males. The LSD was a split. I should have tested SBT#3. It bulked up fast and has the fattest leaves I’ve ever seen. LSD are in the back row.
The Nigerian Sunshine testers get up potted tomorrow. I sent in 11 samples for testing today. I try to select (guess) which ones are males to save space. I’m 4 out of 5 so far. Hoping to go 15 for 16!
Hi everyone! Thanks for stopping by. This past week, I up potted 24 plants, rotated they’re locations and flipped the Sour Blu Tooth & LSD to 12/12. This is day 3 of flowering.
The Sour Blu Tooth’s (back 3) have bluish leaves, duh. LSD #4 (center) tested female. I’m still waiting on the others to show their stuff.
The test results came in for the Nigerian Sunshine testers, and to my surprise, 8 of 11 were female! WTF? I wanted to cull more than 3 males! There’s gotta be some slow starting boys in there . On the bright side… I’m at my legal plant count, and (with 8 girls already) I can start planning the outdoor phases, 5 in the greenhouse & 5 in the soil.
The Granny Skunk’s are taller than the Goji’s, and have a short, bushy pheno (middle row) and a stretched pheno (2nd M? & 3rd F) in the back row. The NS x Goji OG are fairly uniform so far. I’m stoked, I can’t wait to get 'em outside in 3 weeks (frost danger). Till next time,
