Looks good buddy, you're off to a great start!
How many plants and holes and you aiming to settle with outdoors? That mendo looks like it could use a large hole, it's already bushing out nicely.
Good luck and Stay safe!
its getting a large hole...I have 2 holes each 2 feet deep and 1.5-2 feet across..so nice and big...last year i got 2 trees/bushes from these 2 holes...
yee.ha...today I put my C-99, Kali Gum and second ******s Kush Mix under 12/12..I have already got fems.........1 Old Mendo and 1 ******s Kush Mix...
I am hoping for a C-99 fem and the Chem Dog to be fem also...The Chem is taking the longest to show signs of sex..If it is male..I will be taking a cutting and keeping the cutting for use of his pollen..Yummy some Chem crosses..maybe...
hallelujah.....oh man am I stoked...drum roll please...haha..the Chem Dog is a female...YEE friggin haaa..so happy right now...
so in the 2 big holes will be: Chem Dog and Old Mendo and in one of the buckets will be ******s Kush Mix...so far a nice line up for Oct..man am I so excited right now for the Chem...
looking good chef boy do you use a premixed soil or do you mix your own to fill the holes? you should pull some monsters out of holes that size, way to go, -bluebuds
well today is planting day...as I stated before in the two holes will be the Chem Dog IX-II and the Old Mendo f2...and in one bucket will be ******s Kush Mix(which is a mix of
* Killa kush/******'s jack
* Killa Kush/G13 (eskobar)
* Killa Kush/Blue kronic
* Kranial Kush/K.O Kush (knutsel)
* Star Kush/K.O Kush (knutsel)
Wish me luck...there are still a few plants in the flower room and will be planted depending on sex...
wow am I sore lol...spent all day yesterday in the garden planting...not only pot..I have hot peppers, tomatoes, okra, and green beans as well,
so I have decided to experiment a little, I always top my plants and prune them so they get bushy, so i decided this year what the hell..take cuttings the first time I top...
So I just topped both the plants in the ground and took those growing shoots I cut and dipped them in rooting hormone and placed them in rockwool cubes and then tossed them in a propagator..I will mist them each day and see what happens..
Who know's I might have two clones and plant them up north at the g/f;s cottage...
Wish me luck lol
well a little update today...I was contemplating whether or not to cull a C-99 male that has just showed me balls...I really wanted to use his pollen to make some great cindy crosses..BUT I have decided against using his pollen, due to the fact that he started as a runt..and a very slow grower...also I have a whole whack of plants just started to veg and get dialed in..the Johnny Blaze f2, Stonehedge, Bangi Haze x SSh, SAGE f2, and NL5/Haze x AK47..so i decided due to lack of space...C-99 was to be culled..and it was today..A sad day lol..It's so hard to kill a plant that you love so dearly...LOL
THC123 clones are looking great..it's been crazy rainy here and quite cold..so I brought them into my dad's greenhouse, lol..I guess i am really lucky to have a dad who grows orchids and lets me do my thing..hehe...not everyone has that luxury...They are doing just fine..standing up..not drooping at all...
yea Paddi..It's a rough feeling especially if it's such a loved strain like C-99, but i plan to do a seed run of all my keepers(one of these days) in my dads greenhouse..Let the pollen fly..hehe...oh well until that day comes I will just have to dream about the possible crosses...
thanks for your responses guys..last year i had a thread and no-one noticed lol
well the Kali Gum and the other Kush Mix has shown and they are female so..I have had amazing female/male ratios here...I started with 7 plants sexed(so far) and ended up with 5 females..WOW pretty good rates there....
the Kali Gum will be going in that massive 12.2 gallon bucket..it's the biggest bucket i have ever seen..and I used to be in the pool business lol..seen tons of buckets...I am excited to see how big i can get it..I just hope it finishes in time...
you know what they say about a big bucket!......... haha! ummmm huge plants! sounds like a bucket i am using its huge with side rope handles, -bluebuds
