Sweet, happy harvest! Those seedlings are looking great! Are you going to veg them for a bit with your lights outdoors?

Our new Robot Overlords are working at Denny's. My first encounter with one. Later it was seen singing happy birthday to a small frightened child.

Sweet, planting some seed, plant em up! Wish I could have another round of growing outdoors, would be fun to live somewhere warm where you could do that.

The SCC are thick. I never start them off that well! I always put them out while still young, so they start getting partial shade at an early age. Going to do well, about time for some feeding once at 4-6 weeks. Thanks for the update! :smoke:

Just 1 sprouted. Well they are 4+ years old so I slugged a few more in.

Dumped out the 5 gallon buckets as they felt a touch to damp. A few hours and the top was crisp and back they went.

Took down the last plant. Very Sativa and smells spicy.

These need transplanted soon.

Transplant time

Moved from the 3x3x3 inch cups to the 5x5x7 size. All got a shot of Alaskan fish goo.

I'd been soaking the brake master cylinder on the 1969 Ford Econoline with PB Blaster for 3 days in preparation for replacing it. New one in hand from O'Reilly auto parts. They got it in 2 hours from the warehouse. Autozone is next day and higher price.

Was dark and cold by then so I'll get on it this morning when it's light and a bit warmer.

PB blaster keeps you running. WD 40 is good but the PB blaster works a little better to unstick rusty parts I think, its magnetic. Hope that master cylinder gets fixed easily.

Sweet, they're growing well, going to like the transplant! They're looking good! I am really curious what you think about the resin profile. Haven't had many people try it and the folks who have are with limited experience including myself. Is it something special with the terpene combinations? Seems pretty potent. There is some variation, but seems to all have some similar resin characteristics with high potency in part due to terpene content I think. :smoke:

When will you let them flower? I guess have them vegetate for a couple weeks before flowering.

Harvest looks good, That's a pretty long flowering plant. I guess that was the reminants of it. Wonder how many weeks that was, around 12 weeks I guess?

Out of the 16 seedlings 10 were males and removed.
PXL_20241122_214316396.jpg


6 females

The 4 surviving clones.
Yard lights are back on so the seedlings will revert to veg and keep this set in veg as well.

Seedling tray in the garage has 5 or 6 more just up. We are off to the mountains again for a spot of rain. Looks like mist more than actual rain. I'd have weeded the sites and planted these had we stayed in town.

They are used to having plenty of leg room, plus its winter. Usually get higher male ratio if they get a little stress. Glad there are 6 going! They look great! Yeah grow them out a bit, can't wait to see how they turn out! :smoke:

Always disheartening to realize the loss of such a significant portion of hopeful starts; any intention of cloning from the females once they've revegged?
I'm finally experiencing some positive vibes in my beleaguered efforts. The trailing edge of three in my fanciful coffee containers seem to have shaken off the infestation and are gaining momentum. Three in the on deck circle and the three in flower are all looking much more vibrant.

Yes, I'll take cuts and clone them all right before I kill the lights and send them into flower.

Should find a good cut in there, been really pleased with the uniformity of the resin. Working through the 2024 jars to taste test and get seed. Been great medicine! I choose the more medical indica leaning resin types.

Back in town as I have an implant tooth that shattered (2nd time) and needs replacing tomorrow.

PXL_20241205_033805719.jpg


Lights at night.
Clones on the left and seedlings on the right. Lost another as it was growing a pair. Down to 5 of the original 16 seeds I planted from that set.

PXL_20241205_033833090.jpg


Looks like 5 sprouts from the newest 16 attempts. Seeds are old, temps are cold and neglect is high.

Thanks for the update! Sorry to hear about the broken tooth, glad to hear you are getting it fixed, I've had a similar issue before.

The seedling you had to cull, was it just mis-identified as a female in preflower stage? It didn't express hermaphrotdite/interesex did it?

Some of those can be tricky to identify, every strain is a little different in preflower expression. Best to wait to be certain before culling. I usually get more females than males or at lest 50/50, but they have less transplant shock because they are transplanted so early into the ground. Can't wait to see how they do. Will they go in the ground soon I guess?

So the crown got done but the busted implant post wouldn't unscrew so they sent me over to the oral surgeon and even he had a bitch kitty time of getting it unscrewed after numbing me and cutting back the gums to get a grip on it. Spent 6 hours in all messing with it and I'll still need to go back in 2 weeks to have the implant tooth water jetted (made) and installed. Sigh.... OK whine and moan over.

Last male was just behind the rest and wasn't showing the first round of culls.

I've got to weed and dig out enough to drop the cubes in the ground. Not sure how long I can stay on the ground and what position doesn't cause extreme pain. We've got a couple of days here I think so I'll start early and see if I can't knock them out tomorrow.

I've got the newest sprouts to repot as well. Same pots just spill them out and plant deep.

It about killed me but I got the clones and seedlings all planted today.

PXL_20241207_014500184.jpg


Got the worst of the weeds pulled. That took 3x as long as getting the plants slugged in.
I'll get some Alaskan fish goo on them tomorrow as well as get the new sprouts dealt with.

Nice job, looking happy there in the ground! How big will they be when you flip them to flower? how many weeks veg?

Sorry to hear about the issues with the implant. Glad they got it fixed. Been through more than enough suffering as it is.

While it was 69 F today and should be 74 F tomorrow It'll still be slower then summer. 3 feet tall in veg is my plan. 10 weeks or thereabouts. Then 10 more in flower. Should harvest late April or early May if my figuring is right. Mostly I'll let the plants tell me when its time.

The SCC seedlings are quick flowering and usually are done by late september/early october. Will be fun to see how they do in the sun! Will be moving quick soon. Are they getting 10 more weeks veg or 10 total weeks?
