I've got another one (T/Kush) a few days behind.....which is a more squat/fatter-leaved pheno....but seems to be similar in the bud structure.....got a very DC-leaning Chunky Cheese that I'm waiting to show sex.....will use it for pollen if a boy.....but I don't think it is (a boy, that is)...got another couple of plants waiting to show sex....but neither really a suitable match...
Also got a feminised Emerald Jack waiting to show the pistils.....very stretchy as a seedling is all I can really say about it at the moment....watch this space.
Much chemdoggy, dieselly and cherry-y genetics coming through.......all in good time....
Hey mellow.....the TK will be next.....taken a few early buds.....high is very similar to the NL x DC that VG made.....but a bit less potent. I'll stick with the NL x DC.....vegging one up big at the moment.
Got a big gap after the TKs.....which is how it goes with perpetual sometimes....running from seed and all...a few seeds don't pop...a few males in a row and you have a big old gap...I've long given up on maintaining a nice orderly schedule....I stick a seed in the paper towels every day or two....and the rest is playing it by ear.
Cherryjuana pheno E reveg at 28 days of 12/12.....the hot temps have been slowing her down, I think, plus my circ. fan died, and took a couple of days to replace...but we have the first frost....
I keep meaning to raise my light....but somehow it always slips my mind at the crack of dawn when I switch everything on....I need to get a couple of short bungees....I'm using the yo-yo danglers, and the minimum length is way too long.
The smoke on all the Cherryjuanas was very similar high-wise....very strong......feel it right in the eyes and the face goes numb.....a real "just sit back and enjoy the ride" high ...very easy to nod off if a late-night toke. Main variation in phenos is in the taste....E was much fruitier with a thick cherry-hash aftertaste that coats the palate; the other phenos being less fruity with a bit more acetone in there. Highly recommended if it should ever pass your way.
I'm hoping E will start to pack on a little weight.....not used to running revegges / clones, so I'm still in that "big fat cola" mindset.....need to remember we've still got 5 or 6 weeks to go...
But we have a groom....a stout little Cherryjuana boy.....not much stretch, very eager to sow his oats (showed balls at 22 days from seed), so he'll be fathering some Cherryjuana F2s, some Ice Cream x Cherryjuana, and some Bridget Fonda x Cherryjuana kiddies.
Now all I need is my Chemdog D x Cherry Bomb to show some pistils, and all will be looking rosy....
Hey RudeDog....nah...it's not work...somedays I think my plants are my anchor to sanity....my focus....it's the rest of my life that is crazy, chaotic etc etc
The hardest part is keeping track of the seeds in the towels....I swear they move about when I'm not looking....remember Mexican jumping beans? They do that in the towels...seriously
On the numb face thing...I've always taken that as a sign of quality ganja.....you know as soon as you inhale that first hit...that you've got something good.....long before any psychoactive can occur...
Here's the Ice Cream I mentioned....she looks a bit better than that last shot I put up of her....but we have so long to go.....
And because I'm the wrong side of a lovely bottle of Australian Red..... here's some more music from my mis-spent youth
Temps for me have dropped today.....the tent is in a West-facing bedroom...so a sunny afternoon will really up the temps big-time....luckily it's muggy/close today, but cloudy...so temps have been OK....a sunny morning and rainy late afternoon is ideal for me.
Re Sisters: I think they did....but I think it was after the big schism....one guy left and became the Mission (or was it the Sisterhood?) and they went very commercial/ TOTP after that.....Alice was a huge favourite of mine, but I wasn't into much else by them....I was a hard-core Bauhaus fan though....... those Indians wank on his bones!
So the TK sucked man? I have the bubba 76 going and Im popping a pack of the TK next , mine are regs made in cali , I bought them for breeding with the auto affy (clone only from new brunswick canada) to have a short stocky line of early outdoor. I know the fems are made in the UK .
I'm always a bit hesitant to condemn any strain from two plants....but yield/stretch seems to be the only aspect in which these are better than the NL x DC, which I've run a few times now.....plus they are the only thing in my tent that have spider mites, so they'll be coming down pretty soon, as I've had those little buggers about for far too long.
As you say, these are fems, made by someone else over here in the UK for the original seedbank, so your mileage may vary...there's more than one breeder whose rep has been hit badly when they started farming out their seed production to other people in different countries....
