Wow you really Veg em Big.

A shame to throw it away.

When it's minced up into smaller pieces, wild birds love Cannabis.
Well it's a funny story. I germinate with the paper towel method but that doesn't always work on landrace seeds. So I threw them out in 1 of my beds and it sprouted a few weeks later.

Landrace seeds always pop at different times to better the odds of survival.

How long do you think it will take for my line to become a landrace? :smoke:

I mowed that one seedling on accident in my backyard and it got topped hard. It was getting big, like 5-6 inches tall with 2 inch long leaves! They were wide, looked like a good plant. There were 2 other little seedlings too. They saw the weather was good so, they released dormancy. I bet i see some come up in spring too! :smoke:

Generally cannabis seed will come up when it sees moisture under good temperature conditions. They come up in march, so don't worry too much about keeping them warm. Seeds sense conditions and how they change over time. They actually have a level of built-in intelligence.

A landrace native to, or produced for a long time (e.g. 100 years or longer)[10] within the agricultural system in which it is found is referred to as an autochthonous landrace, while an introduced one is termed an allochthonous landrace.[15]

Would be fun to watch a line progress over that long of a period. I may just keep working this line and not pollinate it with Deep Chunk. I have been really happy with the results of harvest this year! Choices choices. :smoke:

Good morning! Its getting to be that way. Going to be a high of 25-30 F friday here with lows in the middle to lower teens! Remember we're not just ripening the plants, but also wanting to harvest at peak potency. Water water water, then cut. :smoke:

Hey everyone, l really hope you’re all going well.
It’s spring here and we’re off on another curveball around the sun. Things are warming up but overnight temperatures have been below 5 degrees C for the last ten days. The seed plants have been powering through it and have set themselves up for some explosive growth over the next few months so I thought I’d share a few photos with you.
Firstly two different phenos of the Forbidden Fruit x Lambrusco from Bradley Danks. These are the testers he sent me and the absolute stand outs in his garden. There’s two distinct geno types within the population, a very early line, that l believe would easily be done by the end of March/September and the ones as pictured, that haven’t gone to flower.
These were soaked on the 17th September and are 600 and 700 mm tall.
The next few are a cross that’s an absolute stand out, so far, the Blackdog x AOG f5. Pictured are the Blackdog leaners that are everything l could hope for at this stage; there’s even a bit of purple coming through with the cold nights which has given me something to look forward to.
They’re also 600mm tall, with some really large fan leaves.
Cheers,
40.

Have you had volunteers in the spring? I have not to many ups and downs in NJ. I've been thinking that some of these wild types - Ruderalis might volunteer even here I have some Khalifa genetics Siberian seed so it's on the list

Oh yeah, I see it a lot, get to the plot to dig and plant in the spring, and the job is already done. This year there were like 15 or so volunteers. The 2 strong ones that made it to harvest were excellent plants!

Topped them since they were so tall, and they both had great resin profiles!

Those plants need to make it into the gene pool if they are growing up as volunteers in the garden. Helps the strain acclimate to the environment. I think what I'll do next spring is plant seed like March 15th and set the flat outside to see when they come up. If they start getting stunted by the cold, will be ready to sow at the regular time in April and we can have a race. :smoke:

Looking for a new mix this year. Not wanting to use the dry composted chicken manure because its too easy to burn. May just bring in a yard of compost and amend the soil. After planting, bring in a yard of mulch for the plants or another yard of compost for mulch. May get some additional N sources like bat guano, cottonseed or alfalfa meal, kelp meal, etc.

Gonna get some big buds next year!

Figured out how this herb is so potent and good. After so many years working the line, a lot of plants have been grown out, and we found treasure! Breeding is a numbers game, just takes time and careful selection. Work the line long enough, and you will see amazing things. Guess we're at F12 (12th filial generation) this year! :smoke:

Be sure to listen to Tom Hill on The Potcast. Careful with kids it has some language, but some great information from an experienced breeder who grew up in the Emerald Triangle.

So I use dry year old chicken manure right from my coop, not even composted. But I make a real week tea and only use once or twice, it's strong shit. The soil is already fairly good but I do add a good amount of worm castings , a little lime and that's it. I have a concrete pad in the woods the leaves fall on it and under just a thin layer of leaves is straight-up worm castings. (Black gold ) Any impervious surface in the shade will work , like thick plastic sheeting
