2009 outdoor fun with: WD C99, BJxDC, DCxLS, The Church, and more

This year I decided to grow my own stuff. I got some seeds from friends but also purchased some. I'm seriously fed up with the pour quality that we get on the streets here. There's some variety at the end of the year but other than that it's lung crushing SuperSkunk wether you like it or not. This thread is for keeping track if I need to check on something later on. Comments are welcomed of course.

9.3. - 3x BJxDC
10.3. - 5x DCx"local sativa" (LS) aka Esmeralda
27.3. - 1 Mazar I Sharif SB freebie
30.3. - 6 WallyDucks C99

Edited:
I figured I'd add information on how I germed WD C99 seeds. I described it in this thread. Post #8.

I keep them on 14,5 hours of light in small vege room. DC crosses are already getting used to outdors. Soon C99 will follow. I need vege room for clones and 12/12 if I'll be doing those.

What has to be done, has to be done. Hole digging. It's a job that's best done in late fall but I decided to start growing a few months ago :D

Fighting with rocks. Wish I had a pick. Spot is perfect though. 10+ hours of sun facing SE.

Guerilla stile garden :D Lower part and sides are "shielded" with plastic foil to keep as much water in as possible. 3feet x 2.5feet
picture.php


Covered and left to "cook" with 100g of water crystals and 5 litres of chicken manure.

Need to dig a few more holes bring more good black soil found close by and some cow manure from neighbouring farms.

From my old batch of WD C99s I got 4 males and 1 female. I decided to start the rest of the beans. 5 left.

10 days from seed WD C99s

Church on reveg, going out soon.

This is suppsed to be some real good medicine. Unfortunately I don't know the strain. Plan is to keep it alive as much as possible, smoke it and cross it with C99 for some seeds.

Time for a little update:

Out of 4 DCxLS ladies I gave 2 to my friends and two are in the forest :). First two are in the forest. I was experimenting with guerilla water collar followinf silverback's thread. I used 10 liter reservoir/plant. Punched 3 to 4 mm holes to the bottom of reservoir but discovered they were to big. I will plug some holes on next watering and see if it works. Reservoirs are burried approx 10 to 15 cm into the ground.

Esmeralda #3 @ friends place. He doug a hole bought 20l of soil for flowers and transplanted her. This one is reaaaaaaly doing great and looks quite healthy. I hope he doesn't chicken out and keeps her to the end. :)

#4 is apparently also doing well but I don't have pics of her.

BJxDC crosses at forest. They are also supported with water reservoir which I described above.

Reveged church:

Killer bag seed. Still flowering. Doesn't want to reveg but I don't care. She'll get some C99 polen.

My cindys. So far one lady (big one) only out of 11 seeds. I'm hoping i get at least two more. 2 of them are in the 1/2 coco/soil mix. 2 of them are coco with 15% perlite. And one only coco. 5 gal. containers. Will do LST on them.

Thanks Peksman and AdvancedGenetix!

This is my Cindy garden. Lower row males, upper row females. Doing LST on them. I'm really surprised at how quick LST results are seen. LST ftw!

Fighting with powdery mildew from the start of this grow.
picture.php

This batch of C99 looks really susceptive to it. I've tried sulphur, fungicide based on lecithine. Atm I'm waiting for some new stuff. It's based on Penconazole and it's supposed to have long lasting effect. Will report.

Here are some of the shots of clones that I took from my males. 3 survived and hermied on me. Don't know why. Perhaps light leeks. They still look cool to me though and it's kinda nice to see trichomes on "males". :)

Gureilla plots will get updated soon.

Hello tonto!

tonto said:
wow awesome.
how big was your hole for the forest grow among ferns?
Click to expand...

There are 4 forest holes. Biggest one is 3feet x 2.5feet. It has a variable depth since there were some boulders in it that my showel couldn't handle. I needed a pick but you can't drive with mountain bike and a pick around. It's just wierd :) Depth varies from 2 feet to 1 feet. There are two plants in it.

All of the holes have water cristalls in them. I've even installed water tanks experimenting with guerilla watter collar. But I punched holes that were to wide into water containers and water just ran out. I'm pondering on solution. plugging the holes and making them smaller. Still a lot of time till dry season. It's been nothing but rain so far.

Yes. DCxLS _is_ Esmeralda. I can update my grow journal if you wish so. I wasn't sure if you wan't to name her publicly.

Really nice cox. Did you solve the problem with PM?
Click to expand...

Not in the long run. I applied another sulphur spraying yesterday. Sulphur is so far the only thing that effectively destroys PM in an instance. But the bastard returns in couple of weeks. Fungicides and neem oil that I applied as preventitive measure also didn't help. I'm getting topas 100 now and I'm thinking of acquiring GreenCure since it also helps with fighting bud mold. Silverback says it helps growing strains that would otherwise mold 1 month earlier. That alone seems like a good investment to me.

Cheers!

You can notice they were already flowering in middle section but they reveged. BTW fan leaves are Huuuuuge. DC influence.

The Church spread into a nice bush:

after:

We had a long period of rain. I thought I'd find some PM as I have problems with my C99 but all of the plants look very healthy. You can't beat the outdoors. Rain + sun = :woohoo:

Esmeralda #4 is doing fine but I didn't get ant pictures of her yet. I feel bad for giving it away.
Updates on C99, MIS and other stuff follows.

This is one of the two clones I received. She's an unknown strain. Looks sativa to me and that's about all I know about her. Good high according to owner though. She never reveged. She's fatting up again.

It looks like you're growing in a rain forest! Those plants are already huge! And, your indoor C99's are really plumping up. Anything with DC in it has to be good!

I wish you continued success with your grow, coxswain. And, good luck with the powdery mildew. Be good out there!
