2023 what yall going to grow

[kaneboy]

just wondering what yall going to grow in 23
ive been a regular seed guy forever but ive finally been turned to the other side LOL
Actually have a humboldt seed blueberry cupcake in flower now and am very impressed.
broke a branch super cropping so put in aero cloner and had roots in 7 days ,probably fastiest cutting ive had root .
anyhow 2023 for myself looks like this
Luckydog -diesel therapy
luckydog-jb chembrand
Wally duck seeds-mango haze x c5/mango
wally duck -sour bubble x z99
local bird seeds-love stash x steel violet

Csi humboldt -chem 91 x chem 1 x gsc
csi-notso dog headband x chem d
csi-rest in peace
thats the list im playing with

 

[Koondense]

My seeds are a little un-labelled.

I just this week bagged some pot that was really good, from 2019, 2018, or 2020.

One was really moldy, after sitting in a corner of a closet for 3 years.

There was one big moldy plant, and one small moldy plant.

The small moldy plant had the most seeds.

So it's labelled "Little Mold 2022", where 2022 is simply the date I finally got around to bagging and tagging it.

I know it's good, I know it might have some Blueberry Headband, and for sure it has Apollo 11 as an ancestor.

But "Little Mold 2022" ?! Is it good, or is it really good ?

Only 1 way to find out. Time to start 4 more seeds.

 

[skunk numba one]

GG#4 S1
Princess Haze XX Fems

then cross if worthy

 

[Tynehead Tom]

well let's see......
Boxing day seed pop will be......
Reeferman G13
DJ short 90's Blues
Pigeon Man's Horny Horse Cherry Red Shitfest

and for 2023 I am embarking and focussing on a Shishkaberry revival project..... popping a pack of Shishkaberry 3f2 (ustad seeds) to get things rolling.
oh ...... and flipping an 88g13HP to be pollinated with 88g13hp pollen donated from a fellow icmag member. Should be a nice seed increase there
Stoked for 2023 with many projects on the go

 

[strangebabylon]

These are my seedpops for the first round of the year. Keeping 1 male of each regular seed strains for pollen, rest will get culled and replaced by either Femmed Moby Dick or Chiesel.

4 Karma Acid Dawg
3 Bodhi Lavender Jack
3 Mr Nice Black Widow
2 Mr Nice Super Silver Haze
1 Fem Big Buddha Blue Cheese
1 Fem DNA Genetics Exodus Kush
1 Fem/Freebie TH seeds Tropical Punch

 

[St. Phatty]

Got some more

Orange Bucket 2020
Can't Remember 2000-I forget
etc.

But mostly what matters -
is that the seeds are kept in one bunch, so that they have a common set of characteristics. No sprout or sprout, Good resin or not.

and of course, Ancestry, which in my case is mostly Apollo 11 grandparents, with a bunch of other Good Smokes mixed in.

and there's Apricot 2022 - just cause she was grown near some Apricot trees.
A nice skunky resiny plant.

NEW YEAR'S RESOLUTION: Get Better Labels with Permanent markers.
Write the info on a 3x5 card and put it in a baggie next to the plant.

Was supposed to grow some MzJill Jilly Bean this year but didn't get around to it. Maybe next year!

The next grow I've got planned is ACE Moroccan Beldia Kif. Looking forward to that. Will be an interesting grow. Never grown anything quite like it.

Also got some GHS SSH beans I'm quite eager to pop. Maybe along with the Jilly Bean to do a cross of the two.

Outdoors I might try some Malawi/crosses. The Malawi seems to do quite well with cold temps at least indoors. This came as a surprise seeing as how its origins are in hot Africa - a very positive one. So it should do well both in the cold at the beginning and end of the season, but also the mid-season heat. The long flowering time is an issue but the potency is quite high even chopped early. Also I have some seeds that fell on the floor when drying the buds and I'm not quite sure if they are crosses or pure, a "Malawi mix" of sorts, good candidates for some set and forget guerrilla growing.

What I've got growing now and will still go a couple months into next year is some ACE Pakistan Chitral Kush and a Dutch Passion Auto-Duck. Hoping for a good PCK male to make some babies with and if the stars align I'll want to work that hybrid further towards an autoflowering line.

 

[Mithridate]

First couple months of 2023 I'll be finishing up a skunk seed run, with a few extras for good measure. The main goals are the skunk seed increase, self the current best skunk cut, melon lifesaver x reversed skunk cut and sour strawberry x reversed skunk cut. All recently pollinated.

Those will be ran outdoors this summer to find a few beauties to further the lines..

Next is some hp x nl1 and 88g13hp, seed increases, cause why not. I need to identify a few candidates to pollinate my sour strawberry #12 cut (frost rails and 3x stretch) and make a strawberry hashplant thingy to run outside for hash, and plant them like corn hah.

Then it's not set in stone, either an old afropips Malawi gold pack or a bunch of ecsd s1...
There's supposed to be a lifesaver seed run/find the blueberry ones for yet another project in there too hah

 

[moose eater]

1 pack each of Captain's Connection Blissful Wizard BX1, and Captain's Connection Wizard Express (Pineapple Express x Blissful Wizard).

Remnants of Space Cake and Soul Mate, maybe More Cowbell. Unopened pack of Terpenado.

South Central Alaska White Widow gifted to me close to 10-15 years ago.

Maybe some old breeding efforts from a former friend's gifts over the years;

'Bomb Lemon Diesel' (THC Bomb x Super Lemon Haze x Strawberry Sour Diesel),

'Lemonado' (Super Lemon Haze x Terpenado),

Some Gogi OG F2's,

Perhaps some experimentation with some of my truly -old- seed stock I'd dug out of storage for another forum member,

and my mothers/clones on-hand, including:

Arjan's original Greenhouse Seeds Super Lemon Haze,

Satori #5,

Satori #2

Ghost Train Haze #1

etc.

Right now there's not a lot of motivation or inclination, but the top 2 (Captain's Connection products) are at the front-runner positions for appeasing curiosity.

Still have lbs. of weed for making extract, personal consumption & gifting, sealed in the freezer, as well as an assortment of sieved pressed hash, and no longer a commercial guy, so no rush.

 

[Mithridate]

You guys got some fun stuff and strains I had forgotten about in your stash. Very nice.

@moose eater hi, what do you mean when you say -old-, I get the emphasis on old but am curious about what they could be, is it a surprise

I'd had some Acapulco Gold that went back to about 1972; couldn't locate it though, and likely used them a number of years ago when I'd been following along with Mystic Funk's thread re. reinvigorating 20+ year old Mexican seeds, remembering that some of what ever I'd planted had enough vigor to crack the shell and sprout a tail, but turned to mulch. A more skilled person might've revitalized exceptional genetics. A lesson therein re. possession or possessiveness, eh?

Vintage Mexican, Seed germination and Micro propagation techniques.

So I see a lot of people on here that have old seeds and don’t know how to get them to germinate. So I thought I would shed some light on this and bring the topic up again. I’d also like to throw in some techniques I’ve learned along the way. If you’re wondering what the vintage Mexican is...

www.icmag.com

I still have some late 70's Colombian Gold and some red/orange Buddha Thai from the early mid-80's that I was buying lbs. of back then for $2,500/each, among others.

Numerous domestic strains, from various parts of the US, initially from overseas, from the 1980s, and more.

I have seeds from the later 1990's from the Copper River Basin, (ruteralis x sativa) that were gifted to me by an intermediary, which had reportedly produced giant buds ("football size") in a greenhouse setting.

A hodgepodge canister from Valdez, Ak. that was given to me by a life-time Valdezian hippie artist who was in his 70s when he gave them to me. They contain seeds from bags he bought and consumed in the 80s and 90s, some of which produced a beautiful classic sativa like we got foot-long tops of from Oaxaca in the mid-1970s; I called her Sativa Sister Vibrant. She was nothing shy of stellar! Her twin, Sativa Sister Dull, had no value at all, but perhaps fiber, but looked identical.

There's stuff we ordered (a former friend and I) from The Attitude and from Nirvana Seeds in about 2000 through 2002. Numerous items with 1-4 seeds per pack remaining.

'Selfed' seeds from stress flowers from the best plant I ever grew; 'Herbina', taken from a bag in about 1996 or 1997 that I scored from another intermediary, of something the grower had allegedly called 'North Polio', and she was AMAZING. I've never been able to get her back (not yet, anyway) from any of her seeds, so thus far I've concluded she was a rare, exceptional, recessive plant. Resin, terps, psychoactive, like none other. Beautiful structure, and productive. She still may be hiding in there some place, but hasn't shown herself for me since.

Who knows what else??

Some or most of the heirlooms are already promised to another who has a decent heart and soul, who I believe is worthy of them, and who may be skilled sufficiently to make better use of them..

 

[mexweed]

going to try to take cuts of the 2 phenos of chem sisXsour and see what comes of them as the seed plants just aren't worth the struggle anymore

will see what sex the chem DX88g13 hashplant ends up

probably going to scrap any breeding plans and will mostly be looking for a female to keep around for a while from the stardawgXold sensi super skunks

It's great to hear about your gardening and breeding plans for 2023! It sounds like you have a diverse range of strains and genetics to work with. It's always exciting to try out new seeds and see what kind of plants they produce.

It's worth noting that the genetics of a plant can play a significant role in its growth, development, and characteristics. The specific strains you mentioned may have different growth habits, flowering times, and desired effects, so it will be interesting to see how they turn out.

It's also important to consider the local growing conditions, such as temperature, humidity, and sunlight, as well as your own growing skills and experience. All of these factors can impact the success of your plants.

Impressive line up, quite extraordinary

Maybe you already know about this, I was skeptical at first...

Take a 9v battery, snap a 9v connector on it with enough wire to be practical, say 8". I used the 9v connector from an old alarm clock. Then touch the top of the seed with both wires simultaneously. Zap them haha.

i tried this on a batch of 1993 skunk that refused to germinate. Embryos were much firmer, and filled the shell, the layer of water that accumulated under the membrane prior to this tek is gone.

Germination rate is still low but at least some will make it to an healthy plant.

 

[pipeline]

Looking forward to watching everyones' gardens and hearing the reports! So much to do so little time!

Sativa Candy Chunk-- Pipeline Gardens- Will be running the Deep Chunk hybrid mix cultivar I've been working since 2010, I call Sativa Candy Chunk. Its a mixture of 4 Deep Chunk hybrids I got from a forum member years ago:

1. (OG Kush x Jamaican Jam) x DC)x DC
2. (Bubba Kush x DC) x DC
3. (Bubba Kush x Bubblegum) x DC
4. Sour Bubble Bx3 x Sour Bubble bx 4 x DC

That is turning out to be an excellent line with some potent, refreshing plants and is getting more stable.

Deep Chunk IBL--Humboldt CSI- I've been looking for a good Deep Chunk to cross it with, and the Lord provided, Humboldt CSI just did a large reproduction of Deep Chunk IBL using Tom Hill 2003 stock!

Pine Tar Kush IBL--Humboldt CSI-Tom Hill talked it up on The Potcast, saying it was a great cerebral smoke and with less narcotic effect!

Sterling Skunk IBL aka Sterling Green-- Humboldt CSI- Been looking for a skunk, an this is an inbred line from Massachusetts.

Will be keeping as many male Deep Chunks as possible to preserve the line. It will also be crossed with the rest of the plants in the garden in open pollination up to early flowering stage to minimize seed production.

If you haven't yet, give a read through Mystic Funk's thread I linked to a post or so ago, in my reply to you. You might find it impressive. He spent a lot of time, and had some successes.

Might try the 9v battery with something I have more of (initially), still in the 'old' seeds category (I have some random 'Nederweit Binna' = "Indoor Dutch Weed" originally from a grow shop in Arnhem Netherlands, 1st generation 'selfed' stress flower results), less exotic, perhaps, just to see.

Thanks.

 

[Mithridate]

@moose eater oh yeah, I have definitely read his thread. That's a classic right there!

The worm bin method was impractical for me at the time, hence me taking a different avenue. I did save a few hundred skunk seeds to give the worm casting a go, hopefully that will wake them up.

"The worm bins work so good, I threw a piece of broccoli and it started growing"

 

[Lunchmoney]

Guerrilla grow Pinewarp some damn where. Indoor Dark rainbow, maybe big Buddha cheese also. Looking forward to learning all I can.
