Hey Core, sorry I wasn't very clear on what it was lol .. we call it a tiller here .. but TML corrected me lol ....
Hey TML, yeah that was fun. The machine I rented was from the stone age, I broke it within the first 15 minutes lmfao ... so I had to scavenged some bolts off my LT1 engine, which is sleeping in my barn. It only took 2 hours but I'm done. Oh yeah this is just a vegetable garden .... hmm well there will probably be a few ladies mixed in with the corn, but hell why not.
Have a good night all.....

Hey Core, yeah this was actually a field so it hadn't been worked up in probably 20 or more years. The garden is about 50 feel long and 20 feet wide, it would have taken a full day to turn it over with a shovel, besides I'm far too lazy for that hahaha ... think smarter not harder ...
I transplanted my M x A, fed all my plants a nice dose of molasses today. I have a few rooting clones in the bubble cloner that are going to need a soil home soon. I have found one female CM, though the rest haven't shown any preflowers yet. I did find an unknown plant amongst the CM's and Bubs, it has no familiar characteristics to the others. I'm thinking it was some bagseed that got mixed in, it's full blown indica and smells really sweet already.
All my males in the country are shooting pollen so I'll be jarring up those on the week-end. I'll brush some PPP pollen on a few lower buds on that M x A. I should be picking up some WW clones this week-end too, it's going to be a great outdoor harvest.
So far the outdoor line up is such:
AK 48 (fingers crossed for a female on the two new seedlings)
Maroc x Afghan (I have 2 moms, 1 clone and 10 in the bubble cloner)
Pure Power Plant (1 mom, 3 in the cloner)
White Widow (not sure how many yet)
Canada Mist (1, just to try it and I'll keep one mom in case she kicks ass)
Bubbilicious (2, going to cross 1 with an Ak male for some beans)
M39 (1, good ole faithful, may cross with PPP)
Big Bud (1, experiment plant, going to just plant it with some nursery pollimar
coated fert and walk away flowering, then going to use jacobs flowering sticks)
Should have plenty to choose from and hopefully a few pounds of sweet ass herb for personal and some friends.
Well hope everyone has a great week-end.

Hey BR, looks like u got a great outdoor grow comin along...I wish I could pull off a crop here outside, but its still gettin to like 38 @ nite...we prolly wont be able to put any veggies out until Jun. 1...but we'll see, lots a people here pull off outdoor crops w/ n/p...Good luck with the grow, cant wait to see some pics!!! I just smoked a phatty of purple AK, pre-cure, and HOLY 
fuck!!!! It is mind-numbibg...numbing..I cant even type straight!!!LOL. This is some KILLER shit, Im glad Im revegging her... 
Peace BR. Have a good one.- Z.........................................
Hey BG, yeah it's a big damn garden. Lets just say I was bitching the whole time I was working in it this week-end. It took about 7 hours of work but she's done. Planted lots of tomatoes, peppers ... including some habenaro .. lots of lettuce lol and I made sure to leave some room for some potted pot hahaha ... take care man, I'll have some goodies for you when you get around this way.
Hey NOKUY, glad you stopped by man. Your cab was the inspiration for me to get back into small scale indoor growing. The shelf works great, I can keep my cloner on the bottom and stack the shelf up, of which it is getting damn crowded in there. I'm hoping my buddy comes to pick up some of these clones soon so I have less to look after. The temps are great right now, the humidity has not been an issue so far, but when it does start to get sticky I have two a/c units ready to go. I work outside all day in that shit and there's no way I'll sleep in it too hahaha. Glad you'll be sticking around man....
Zeus man I'm so glad that purp smokes as good as she looks, that was my only concern. My two lil ak seedlings are doing pretty good, I just hope I get a purple pheno in one of these beans
... gotta love the mind numb lol ... If I were you I'd pot up a few clones and keep them for your outdoor grow, just keep them in when it's cold. It gets pretty cold here in the fall, I just cover mine in case of frost, but I've never had any problems with frost damage besides growing outdoors is so much fun and you don't have to worry about pesky pests mother nature rules.
My plots are almost done too, I was so busy I didn't get to see in the flowering cab all week-end, so I hope all is okay. I took some pollen off my males in the country, most of the pollen is in small jars in the freezer, but I did bring home some off the best PPP male I had, I'll brush some on the M x A tomorrow.
Well take care all ..... I'll update soon...

Hey TML, thanks, yeah it should be a good year.
Well I just pollinated two buds on the M x A and two on the scrog with PPP. I think the scrog plant is a M39 after all, I'll be able to tell in a few weeks. This should be interesting cross's. The M x A is budding up nicely as well as the scrog. It's filling in and now the buds are shooting upwards. I have a bunch of clones in the cloner, I took a clone off the bub and cm before my buddy comes to pick them up. I'll be glad to have some space in the mother room soon I can fill it up with the clones for the outdoor grow, of which I'll start putting out this week-end.
Here's some pics of the males in the country I got pollen from. The first is the PPP and the second is the AK 48.

Hey Kooki, I'm really interested in seeing what I can do with these strains. I've always wanted to cross, but never had the time to do so. Thanks for stopping by.
Okay it's week 4, I just gave everything a dose of molasses and epsom. My buddy came and took all the bubs and cm's so I have lots of room for my clones now.
Here's the M x A ...
I love this plant, she's filling in nicely and I can't wait for those buds to thicken up. I can't wait to try this lol ... she has little smell, a bit citrus, but nothing pungent yet. I can't wait to see this outdoors, of which I'll be putting out 1 of the 2 moms this week-end and 1 clone. I'm going to sog this baby with the pegging method.
Here's the scrog....
I'm almost positive this is M39, but that's okay. She's budding up nicely, and they're starting to grow upwards. There are plenty of bud sites in the undergrowth as well, so I trimmed some under leaf today to let more light in.
Well that's it for this update, thanks for stopping by.

hey black rain,
sorry I didn't stop by sooner - I'm very interested in your grow as I just picked up all three nirvana strains you are growing (plus 3 more - 6 pack weekend seedbay deal - $75USD ... he he ... couldn't resist)
the M x A looks pretty thin leaved - almost sativa-ish - how many weeks does it look like it will go?
I saw that one and couldn't resist picking it up - I'm glad to see you trying out first
things look pretty good

Dang BR, that scrog looks great!!!I hope mine looks as good...Hope all is well otherwise...Outdoor strains and grow sound good, cant wait to see some pics!!!Later bro'
Peace - Z

Hey sugabear, yeah all the strains I have are pretty good. The M x A is an 8 week breed, but I'll see it may be a longer one. The nirvana site says it's an Indica/Sativa mix, but I see more sativa than indica in the plant characteristics. That goes for all 3 moms I have. I'm really hoping this is going to be some great smoke, I'll be doing this one outside as well. Man you got one hell of a deal on those seeds, I'm jealous lol What other strains did you get with that?.... thanks for stopping by, if you have any questions on the nirvana strains I have be sure to ask.
Hey Zeus, yeah the scrog is filling in nicely. Everything is great right now lol, just getting all my plans ready for this week-ends outdoor planting. I'm missing a few clones, so I'll have to go pick them up soon. Take care man.... thanks for stopping by.
Hey Core, always a pleasure having you stop by, we seem to have the same interests when it comes to this hobby Love the crosses you did. Take care man....
