Yeah the heat yesterday and today has been a bitch, I don't remember having to think about the heat last year. I have been hovering around 25 to 30, so I stuck an extra desk fan in there. get lots of air movement

Your outdoor grow is looking amazing. I love how you've pegged them down...I bet you're in for an insane yield. I can't wait to see those ladies come September :yoinks:

Nice new collection of genes in your line too :yes: Thanks for the offer on the WW :smile: I actually have some WW courtesy of Core :D I'm sure we'll meet up sometime this summer though :wink:

Keep'er green :lurk:

Holly seeds......

Holly seeds......

Hey Dog, yeah it's only going to get hotter this week. I guess we need to get use to it lol, oh how I love growing indoor in the winter :) take care man.

TML, hey man the peg method kicks ass :) I'm sure we'll have some nice trading to do this summer my friend. Thanks for stopping by.

Well I'm on flower day 49. M39 is looking awesome and should be ready real soon. I was checking out my plants today to see if I had any seeds ready and well yes they're ready and starting to pop out of the calyx's.... problem is they're everywhere lol. I used a paint brush, but the pollen must have spread and they're seems to be a number of seeds all over, not taking over the buds but quite a few. The problem is that I pollinated a few buds with PPP pollen and a few with AK48, so what is what now? I don't really care at this point, I'm happy with having some seeds and I'm curious as to what these seeds will produce. I guess that's why the M x A isn't bulking up as much as I would have liked, she's in full seed production. M39 is bulking up, but she too is in full production, and smells soooooooo sweet. I popped a few beans out too look at them and they're really well developed.

Here's the M x A day 49, I'm pretty sure she'd be done in 60. You can see the seed, if not click on the pic to enlarge.


Here's the seed I got out of her.


The M39 scrog seeding on day 49, she'll be some nice smoke after I pick through her. I'm going to do a run of these seeds on my buddies coliseum setup to see what she gives. You can see the fat calyx, just about to split and show the seed.


Another of the buds that has no seeds.


Take care all.....

Hey BR nice update bro!!

like TML said i dont think you will have a problem telling the ak and the PPP apart, should be quite different, It should be fun to have some new genes to play around with hope it goes well. All of your ladies are looking fat and healthy just like always!!! Keep up the good work killah!

Nice seed. I have never seen a plant give a seed like that. I normally don't let them get to that point. If I feel there are seeds I have been chopping down the plant well before that happens. All looking good in here bro.

mmh that seed looks quite mature ...good job man!!

ohw and you maybe you should only harvest the seeds that you know you pollinted with PPP or the ak48....you should have more then enough...if you even remember what plant you took :pointlaug

The Shout Outs :)

TML, man thanks for the optimism :) I agree with you. The M39 is being cropped at 60 as well as the M x A.

NorthernKronic, hey man thanks for the props.

Hey Dog, I purposely seeded a few buds but the pollen got away and I have a few more seeds now than I had anticipated on, but oh well :) I think they should make some nice crosses in the future.

Hey Core, I did mark the buds with markers so I will have a few pure crosses as for the rest they'll make a great bulk scrog grow in the future. Take care man.

kyled07, hey man, sorry but the light is off so the full pic will have to wait till tomorrow. Don't go by size from mine though cause she's using most of her energy making seeds and not buds. I have a few outdoors so it will be the true test. Thanks for stopping by.

High&Lonesome, thanks for stopping by my lil grow, hope you stick around.

I took some flower shots at my folks this week-end, I know they're not MJ, but hell some of us grow other stuff too lol, hope you's enjoy.





















Take care all.......

Hey Zeus, everything here is cool, well no it's humid as heck but oh well. Hope things are great with you, I'll be checking in on your threads soon. Thanks for the props man, and yes I've been checking out Mandala too, I love the hashberry :) take care man.

Okay I've been picking beans off the M x A, have a bunch of M x A x PPP seeds but only a few M x A x Ak48 beans ... have tones of question seeds lol well they're either PPP or Ak48 crosses :) I know it's a major goof, but at least I have a some seeds. The M39 is almost ready, I picked one seed out and it was the biggest seed I've seen. I only saw the one that was ready the rest are still stuck in the calyx. She smells so nice and the resin is crazy. The M x A isn't as frosty as I would like, but I think she'll still taste great. She smells piny/spicy. I'm hoping for a better yield outdoors, where I believe she'll flourish. I'm going to be popping some of these new beans soon, so I can see what they do. As soon as this grow is done I'll be retiring the indoor cab, until I can find a bigger place.

Here's the M x A 51 days.....


Have a good one...

I guess we get to concentrate watching the outdoor grow though :yes:

Beautiful garden you have there :smile: Some great pics as well. Nice to see other flowers than buds...sometimes :biglaugh:

M X A looks like she's starting to fill out a tad more...I see you have plans on taking her at day 60...maybe let her go a while longer just to see if she'll put on more? :confused:

Congrats on your new seed stash :ying:

Hey TML, yeah I'll always have the outdoor :) My son is going to be born early next month and we need all the space we can get so the cab has to go, well it won't be leaving just pushed aside, maybe I'll make a storage bin out of it :( hahaha .... oh but I'll make up for the loss of the indoor with a great outdoor grow :) I do plan on making a small rubbermaid bin cab so I can make some seeds.... it will be a small project probably with a single 42 watt cfl I'll start that project soon. Take care man...

With the heat I have been getting I wish I was not inside. Man it is hard to keep up with, kinda sucks about having to fold up shop though.
Keep updating this thread with this harvests pictures, want to see what comes of those.

M x A 51 days.....


:yoinks: - :yoinks: - :yoinks: - :abduct:

I think that MxA should be renamed John Holmes! :biglaugh:

That's an impressive looking cross BR - and looking very fat for 51 days.

Congrats on your new son! Sorry the indoor cab had to get reassigned, but I know you will make good use of the outdoors, if your beautiful flowers are any indication!

Ciao! :wave:

Day 53

Day 53

Hey Dog, yeah it's been a killer here too, the humidity should break soon. I'll be probably cropping next week.

Mr GreenJeans, hey man thanks for stopping by again, love to read your comments. The M x A cross isn't mine it's from Nirvana, I did do some crosses of my own but I'm not sure the genetics will be worth keeping or not, that's what is so awesome about this hobby :)

Okay it's day 53, I already showed you the M x A the other day so here's the scrogggggggg, some of the buds are just busting seeds, huge seeds lol

Here's a few close ups....







And finally some of the under growth, I'm pretty pleased with the yield for having quite a few that seeded, she smells juicy :)



That's it for now, I'm on my way to plant my WW, I'm going to be pegging it for sure. Anyone ever grow WW outdoors? how does she do? I'm just worried about how long she'll take to finish. I'm going to take some pics so I'll update later.

Outdoor report, week 3

Outdoor report, week 3

Hey Bean, thanks for the props man. Yeah the M x A, I topped and she shot up 6 mains. I have one outdoors that I topped once and I'm going to let her get as tall as I can. This is what it says at there site.

Moroc x Afghan is truly a classic F1 hybrid of two of the tastiest hash producing strains known to man. The Moroccan seed stock comes from a Ketama hash plantation and has been inbred for 9 years. Yields are promising. Fantastic for small scale urban hash operations. Water hash from this strain has an exotic import flavour.

* Plant type: Best suitable for outdoor growing.
* Plant height: Medium- Indica/Sativa mix
* Stoned or high?: Stoney yet high- Allround Buzz
* THC level: Medium 8-15%
* Flowering Weeks: 8
* Yield (Sea of Green on one m2) : 400
* Harvest Month: 8/9
* Grow difficulty: Moderate

I know that the one I'm floweing is mostly sativa, the branch structure/leaf and bud development all slide towards the sativa side, maybe there is an indica pheno too, I just haven't seen it yet in my clone stock. Thanks for stopping by.

Okay the outdoor show....... I planted the WW and pegged her down, the M x A I have in the pot is shooting up nicely, I topped her last week and now she has two mains, I also have been super cropping her. I had to re-peg the others as they started to shoot upwards. I just keep pegging them down like a carpet until they start to shoot pistils then I let them grow upwards. You end up with a ton of top colas.

Here's the group photo ... SMILE...



The WW....



The PPP, I really hope this strain is as good as the photo's I've seen.



Lastly here's a pic of what I've been smoking for what seems ever... last years outdoor M39 ..... she's on the 8th month of cure and is sooooooo smooth and packs one hell of a punch.





Take care all..
