lol...

lol...

I can go either of two ways....

Plan A.. Hit my Floater female with a mix of all 3(maybe four) Bubblegum males, and use the pips to select the first generation of my outdoor head stash... I really need a quick 'n' deadly plant that finishes easily in the UK under a natural photo period.. That can almost fend for itself Guerrilla style..
OR.....
Plan B.. Just use pheno G on my Lifesaver and Floater clones simply because out of all the pheno's I'm running, this stud roots fastest and stays green throughout. Which is obviously more suited to an indoor hybrid, but can still be tested for adaptability outdoors.

Plan B is easier and more convenient, because i already have a well rooted clone of 'G'..

Nice plants Bean dude :yes:

...think Ive f**ked up on light levels outdoor this year, can't place under direct sunlight so am having to make the best of a bad-job :wink:

the 2c night temps aren't helping... good job we're not cropping this lot :D

Glasshouse temps are ranging from 2 - 40c ??? one day it's wet, the next day clear-blue sky,,, my sativa's are shooting internodes,,, the indica are growing slow. (think we need a new garden) :chin:

Male clone of SourBubble..

Male clone of SourBubble..

I think he's outstanding, smells cool to.. me tinks this pheno might be good for some crosses later in the season.

Any thaughts.. bearing in mind that he is getting the same as all my other clones, and all but him yellowed... he was green when i cut him and looked just like this only way smaller..






^^ The other males that didnt make the grade..


^^Here is the father of the clone above.

^^These seedlings popped up without me knowing.. Mother nature at her best.. the pots have been outside since before last year lol... :yoinks: The pips must have been left over from a few years ago, when a bagseed 'Lemonade Haze' plant got pollinated by a hermie sativa that smelled like black pepper and onions, with citrusy undertones.



^^Floater and Lifesaver clones at 25 days..

Stay cool peeps.

Smoke Report from another grower.

Originaly posted by toots..
Floater by Sunycheba


Well I have been waiting to try this strain since it was released and finally I am able to give a smoke report. Genetics are DJ Short's Flo X Jacks Cleaner Blueberry. The top bud was cut at 65 days, almost all cloudy trichomes. The aroma is mostly a cleaner type pungent smell like lemon pine-sol and synthetic fuel mixed together but also with fruity and blueberry undertones. Best way to describe it is a fuel / candy medley of greatness mixed with the new Action figure toy smell. The fuel odor isn't like that of the Diesel strains as it smells more like an oil than gasoline. A very unique smell as it doesn't remind me of any other strain I've tried except the hint of blueberry. The taste reminds of lemon candy and sweetness, hard taste to describe as it is very complex. Now on to the stone, quite unique. I have never personally smoked any herb like Floater, the quality of the high is fantastic to say the least. I can slowly feel slight pressure come into my head and eyes and at first its quite pleasant and comforting, but as the high progresses my body slowly numbs and feels tingly and my whole body together seems to "hum". Heart rate goes up a good bit but the effect is not super racy. I then feel as if I'm in another world because objects appear glossy and more 3D like as in a computer game, inanimate objects seem to have energy running through them. My head feels like its flying and although If I sit still my body feels as if its numbed and down but also up at the same time like my body doesn't feel gravity so to speak. When I sit and stare straight ahead watching the road from a distance vehicles look like ants as if they are being projected some how at a slightly different frame rate on a projector screen. Smoking a good bit of floater can give quite a trippy experience. I can say honestly I've never smoked anything that mimics those effects and it is truly unique. I will never let go of this strain and now I'm super excited to collect more of TGA's strains. I recommend Floater to any stoner.

Hey dudes.. :D

Hey dudes.. :D

Yeah i must admit, i wish id bought more packs of Floater when they were still around... I'm kicking myself for spending moolah on other pips lol... :badday:


Towards the end of the summer i'm gonna germ the rest of my pack, and pick out the seeds in my cheeba mix that resemble the Floater pips.. i need to find a good male to make F2's.. got to preserve these genes lol. :yummy:

Update..
There's a wicked smell wafting its way out of the extractor when the lights are off, hard to describe.. sweet but with a real body to it. Up close the Floater clone smells of sweet lemons with a kind of earthy(only way i can think of putting it into words) overtone.. cant put my finger on it... The Lifesaver clone has a subtle lemony smell to it but nothing much apart from that, i think she needs time to grow before she starts to stink. Her pistils are swelling and the resin is building up further and further out towards the tips of the leaves.. I'm guessing that the Lifesaver buds will be a lot denser than the Floaters, because the LS has flowers that lean towards the indica lineage. The Floaters buds at this point are more wispy and look a lot more delicate with skinny pistils.

Stay Frosty peeps...
