Bubba x Kali China feminized R + D - New Mexico legal outdoor in soil

[deepwaterdude]

Hear ye, hear ye, fired up the old computer to post about a grow that's begun. Dubi in his usual generous way gifted me some really cool beans to play with and I fired these abovementioned fems up to run outdoors in happy frog. I love Kali China crosses and haven't tasted Bubba Kush since A-dam back around 2010, thought it'd be a nice, fat leaved alternative to my usual haze and satty inspired tokes that'd finish nicely here at 7500ft. Alongside, I'll be running a couple of Romulan from my own seeds made with Jake's "BX1", or as many females as I get from 3 beans, and some other stuff, blueberries and lemons and cherry whatnots.
Here's the spot that'll host 12 smallish plants.

And the plants minus 6 unsexed that are already outside

The topped Bubbas x KC are the least visible in the above pic; first in the second line from left, in a white pot in second position, barely visible, but healthy, then at the far right of the tent, next to the lightest green plant is the second. SHould be a fun season (famous last words). Plant out is in ten days. See youse then

Edit: found an isolated pic from last week.

What's up conso Hope you've been well. Been growing my butt off and lurking here and there. First Ace Beans I've popped in a while, though I've kept up with my Rom and the hazes.

I'll always take some extra luck This is the first time growing "in town", so will have to place cameras etc.

All righty, June 1 was plant out for most known females including the chosen larger Bubba x KC. Here she is the day after transplant along with the plot and other plants. I still have the other Bubba x KC and a fem BC Blueberry that will get spots vegging under lights. She's got a badass crown from my usual fimming

Here are my 3 Romulan from a selection I made from BX1 plants. There's an Item #9 on right

Old DP blueberry strain with new parents from a friend in Switzerland. All have different mothers selected for mutation and taste, one uniquely for blueberry terps and chem/potency on the third. Had some from last year and is very, very good.

Here's the plot area just finished building out.

Hope everyone's well, naptime

Hi @deepwaterdude hope everything is good, friend! The Bubba Kush x Kali China already feels like an old one, hehehe. I'm glad you're giving this indica cross a try this outdoor season. The soil mix seems to be well loaded with everything happy growing!

Hey, Sir Dubi, always good to read you! I had to think of one of yours that could finish here at 7500ft altitude; this Bubba x KC should be juuuuust fine I'll probably find a way to run both examples I popped. I just transplanted the first Romulan girl; they also finish well here. Have to try the Green Mountain stuff, sounds like it's up my alley...

Nothing like updating every two weeks Just got back from a road trip, set up drip watering before I left on my grove girls. Have 2 my Romulan and 2 fem Bubba Kush x Kali China now in the ground a bit earlier than I wanted. Number one is big already, and number 2 is about the size I wanted them to be at this stage. Going for small plants as I'm in town.

The Grove

Bubba KC 2 under the tree

Same next to presumed male Romulan

Bubba KC 1 in the grove - gonna be a big girl. Will probably top her tonight.

Here's my Romulan girl getting big

First drops of a rainstorm hitting the windows, great moment. Have lovely days, fellas, dwd

 

[deepwaterdude]

Whoops, got away from me again. Here are the girls July 7, one of the blueberries starting to flower, and Romulan and Bubba x Kali China looking good. Bubba KC is dark, has fat, sturdy stems, the biggest leaves in the plot. Gonna produce.

The grove five days back...

My romulan from the BX1 seeds, no purp to her. The mom had red pistils and earthy terps, oldschool stone.

Here's the beauteous Bubba x Kali China. Any Kali China mix for me is good. Special. She's large and threatening. Future bondage will be in order.

 

[deepwaterdude]

Getting into the interesting period, girls are doing great if not a little bigger than I wanted at this stage. Some BB are in flo. Even the last planted have caught up and look too big. Here's the grove a few minutes back. Girls are hungry, need to grab some Maxsea and hit 'em good for stretch. Need to put some more caging up. The white is Diatomaceous earth.

Here's the Bubba x Kali China doing perfectly. Leaves are as advertised. Big fat girl. 4ft tall.

My Romulan - really looks like the Mom from a few years back. Hoping for a smaller yielder with some boutique smoke, but who knows?

Alright, more soonish, probably with first flowers from all. Much love to the Ace gang, deep.

 

[deepwaterdude]

Going great over here in New Mex.

Bubba x KC is flowering for a few days now, Romulan just starting. Some of the Blueberry crosses I have going have been flowering 2 weeks + already.

Bubba x KC side, she's third on right

Bubba x Kali China. Big girl, big stems, big leaves, hoping for big flowas

Here's my romulan with a little DE on leaves still

One of the Blueberry Mutants

Hope everyone's well. I gotta put more netting and bamboo stakes.

Alright alright, looking pretty beautiful in the grove these days. Girls are massive and yellowing at the bottoms, just top dressed with Build a Soil flower top dress. Trying to stay low effort.

Bubba is the plant at the far left of the shot above. Pics taken an hour ago, August 19.

Here's the Romulan for this year, also a branch from a rom dude who may cross with everyone out there. This year's rom looks like the mother plant with red stems and light green leaves. Satty, feathery start to flower. Def not an S1 copy of romgenetics clone.

Romutops

Here's a branch from a rom dude i saved for pollen.

Here's Bubba x KC. Big girl, stacking flowers that shine with crystal already.

Have a lovely day, should be september next time I post

 

[deepwaterdude]

Just a few pics of the Grove after 2 days rain. Some transitioning to mid flower.

Biggest plant back right is about 5'9"...

 

[deepwaterdude]

Bubba X Kali China today. Very nice plant, stands 5'5" short

Closer

Closer yet

And here's my Romulan from seeds made from Romulan Bx1. Very difficult to keep green and really starting to fill in with flowers.

Starting to get nerves now about the smell. Lovely day, fellas

 

[Farmer John]

Beautiful plants dude!

 

[deepwaterdude]

Beautiful plants dude!

thanks, man!

 

[deepwaterdude]

Hey, fellas, got a rare rainy day here in NM, took pics last night at sunset or so. Everyone doing great.

Here's Bubba x Kali China. SHe has very floral terps, some sweetness and rock solid buds. Prolly Oct 1 finish

The Romulan from seeds made with Jake's Bx1 seeds

Enjoy your day fellas

Hi @deepwaterdude friend hope you are having a great summer there in New Mexico

The plants have been really healthy throughout their growing stage, and now large in flowering, producing good sized resinous colas at a quick pace. They definitely feel your expertise after all these years!

The Bubba kush x Kali China looks like a quite common phenotype of the strain in look, growth and now also in flowering traits. Should be ready in approx 2 weeks, more or less.

Thanks for all the frequent updates!
