looking good - have you spotted any male flowers at all yet??

Nada. No. Zero :)

D seems a little more nute-sensitive than the others, but overall they all seem very easy-going.

Got a few twisty leaves after giving them a blast of PK13/14 a couple of weeks ago, but no real signs of complaint.

Funny you say about having a torrid time with seeds of late....Same here, bought a few single femmed seeds and enjoyed a 50% strike rate on the germ. One of those seeds is a Chemdog, it's broken the soil but is struggling. I'm not doing anything different to usual though...pissing me off.

I bought a couple of 3-pack fems from a new seed company I can't name.....Opened one pack - seeds looked a bit pale/immature. One didn't pop, 1 runt, and one is ok. Should have stuck with Paradise :moon:

Got some Chemdog Sour Diesel F2s waiting to be popped....gonna wait until my strike rate improves.....but I'm itching to get a couple started.

[RANT] Icmag is so sloooow first thing in the mornings.....503......503..... [/RANT]

So.....maybe B and D aren't the same pheno. D is definitely less dense in the buddage....and has put on a bit of slap on the old pistils...

Whereas B is stockier in the buds....and is showing a little colour (more than I thought when I took the photos)....hmm...maybe they are still the same pheno.....

C....taking her time....will be the last one home, I think.

E.....still the looker of the bunch....Day 46 of 12/12 for all of them....

BJ #2 x Lemon Chunk......taking after her mother (the "Brussels Sprout").....I'm hoping she won't be quite as crazy stretchy, and that the father will have helped fatten the flowers up a bit.

looking nice, glad to see the pink pistil trait has stayed in the line. i think some will be ready at 9 weeks-ish too....

im going to donate a dozen packs of these to the server fund - just need to pack them up and post 'em off.

Very nice Blimey mate :) I have grown a Thai strain before but did not like the high lol it was far to energetic I was doing shit loads of jobs after I smoked a joint and could not sleep for hours either :( I like my couchlock strains really.
I flowered mine for 11 weeks.

VG - yeah, I was pleasantly surprised to see the pink pistils.....I can't see them under the HPS.
Good news about sending the beans into the server fund. Feel free to use any pix you want.

Speedemon - that Thai is at 75 days of 12/12 and isn't even showing flowers yet....it's doing something, but no bud or anything yet. It stays until I run out of room.

I just put a Trinity Kush into flower.....should be a girl (femmed seed).....fat leaves....

Gonna keep checking this one for sure.

Hey Paulo, thanks for stopping by, and the kind words :)

Yeah, that Thai is a conundrum. Let me refer to my notes and grab a couple of pix...


OK....Nirvana "Travelling Thai". Seed popped on 17th March.....kept under 18/6 under 200W Red CFL in 1 litre pot until 8th April, when put under 12/12 - 400W HPS. Up-potted to 3 Litres on 11th April. Showed preflowers a couple weeks later.....pear-shaped preflowers that never showed actual pistils....just the nub.

Pix from a couple minutes ago....Day 81 of 12/12. Most of her is well above the reflector, so she lives on "second-hand" light....and borrowed time.....

Never seen one like that. Cool!
I hope you don´t run out of space. I have read somewhere that some Thais prefer a shorter light cycle while flowering. Something in between the 10 and 11 hours of light.
But i guess that even if that´s the case because you got other strains in there it is not a doable solution.
Anyway i wish you the best for all of them.

B and D are in the primo spots for light.....as far as spots not under the light go....swelling very nicely. Plasticene and nail varnish smellwise, heavy on the varnish.

E at 51....

C still chugging along....

Got a D4SD that's a bit of a princess....one thing after another..."This soil is too rich"....."I'm too hot"....."I'm thirsty"......."I've got spider mite bites".....

Whereas my "Sams' Mixed Seeds x Haze/Skunk #1" girl just keeps on growing happily in exactly the same conditions without a whisper of complaint....

Doesn't look like much haze in this one......probably a good thing....

Yeah.....I'll probably chop that Thai next time I need the space.....no rush...certainly not going to mess my light schedule around at all....

awesome, some other great shots in you cherryjuana album. when do you think the first one will be ripe?? cant be more than a week or 10 days or so...

A week to 10 sounds about right.....leaves are starting to flush out....you can see the colour difference quite well in that last shot. E is coming down in a day or two....reveg time...B in a week maybe.....that's D up there.
C will take another week again....seems to be the weakest pheno....unless the high is significantly better than her peers....

No sign of nanners on anything, despite a few hot days in the tent.

nice shots!

spoke to clarence about the Cherryjuana listings and it turns out he listed the 10 x 10 packs up a couple days ago and they're already sold out!

your grow show seems to have done the trick :)

im looking forward to a smoke report. how do they smell??

Wow.....I was expecting to see a few posts about peeps scoring those beans.....although I have noticed there seems to be a gaggle of "Seed Strumpets" that wait for Clarence to drop new arrivals for the S/Fund every day.....

I've had a few quick-dried samples of "E".....

Smell (from the dried buds) is soft and fruity.....when you get down to working it with your fingers.....a few different smells come out....fruit....musk...leather....more than I expected....the fruit (astringent) is really what comes out most in the taste.....but my palate isn't so good.....I think there's a nice mix of flavours in there for those with more refined tastebuds.........cotton mouth is a serious possibility......keep a beverage handy.

But not a stinker...compared with the sort of ladies you keep in your harem, V....

(The girls in flower are all giving me straight acetone smells.....E was the odd one out, smellwise)

High : This shit is strong......hits you in the eyes and face......intensity of buzz is impressive....but clear......but you'll never forget that you are well stoned......Having sampled neither parent, I can't say how it matches up......but we're looking at about a 9 on the potency scale.....impressive.

Although the high is clear......short-term memory loss can be a problem if you need to get stuff done.....not saying you can't do stuff.....but it may well not be what you intended when you started out.....

Overdoing it usually leads to the "lost hours" syndrome.....one minute your watching the 10pm movie.....the next, it's 4.30am and there's a Thighmaster infomercial on...

Overall......WIN
