Chem D x C99 and Querkle

[budman678]

wow, i went down and rubbed a few sugar leaves...

chem smell like a less prounounced diesel...must be the c99 in teh cross. not sure what c99 brings to the table other than faster finishing...more pine than diesel.

warning, i have very limited expereince and very little to compare too. while i have been smokting for a long time this growing thing is new...i have grown some sd/og kush, critical + and dutch passion strawberry cough...

querkle smells so fruit/berry sour candy smell. i am very excited to taste herb like this. and artificial kool aid smell is what it has. love love love

cant wait to see more...pics are a couple days old...we are on day 21 or 22....

i would wait a bit.....right when the clusters start growing together, then you may want to take out a few fans....about day 32 or so.

cool, i wasnt sure if there was a general rule on when give em a hair cut. they are really rockin and rollin...smells like baby shit in that tent!!

jou budman,
just took a good hour to read through your whole thread. really nice how you bounced back after that initial stress. i can feel the love for the plant in every single post you deliver and Im too feeling connected to the secret club you mentioned before. its not like im a lonely stoner, i gather smokers around me. but you know, some are just ok puffing of the streets their whole life. i simply cannot understand how you wouldnt want to grow that miracle plant and admire her in every aspect she delivers. i can feel you appreciate cannabis the same why i do and i feel connected to you. keep doing what ya do
btw... tagged!
take care

I've had a long Tiring day. Worn out and exhausted. You just inspired me to get up and move. I feel humbled to have inspired u to get out and run. It's not about the miles it's about the connection with yourself. Super pumped!!!!!

Get out and enjoy moving your body and making yourself healthier and stronger.

Super bummer. Found some male flowers on the very bottom growth of the Chem99s. They were very small green balls on little stems. I found maybe five or six on very low growth. They didn't look like they were mature. Closed balls. Picked them all off. Tried to be as thorough as possible. Didn't really pay too close of attention but I believe they were on tow of the four chem99s.

I saw none in the flowers and I looked very hard.

Someone give me their thoughts. I dealt with nannerz late in flowering. No big deal. But it always been on week 11. I am at 26 days...

Any thoughts?

Everything lookin dank. Stacking. Super resin. Baby poop smell.

Querkles had no visible male flowers but had swollen calyxs. Wowzers.

Chem99s look good. Bummed seeing a few balls

 

[budman678]

Double post. Damn internets.

 

[nugbuckets]

it happens...it is entirely genetic, you won't find any on the querkle, they have been stress tested....you have to smoke one, and go through those chems with a fucking fine tooth comb......one or two missed flowers can give you hundreds of seeds at this point...and the seeds will be shit, cause they all came from a mom with herm tendies....this happened to me last year, and killed alot of hope with an almost perfect run of super-dank......another reason why i don't fuck with anybody elses gear but you know who.....good luck...it will be fine, but you have tedious work to do....nugs

 

[budman678]

well what a fucking bummer man....

thanks for the advice brother...i am going to take stock of the sitation...identify the one throwing male flowers and possibly eliminate them if i think its going to be an issue

 

[budman678]

i have heard the chemdog have a tendency to hermie...besides a very early on into veg dry out, i have not stressed them out at all...some cold temps with the lights off but not terrible

 

[nugbuckets]

its not from stress bro, its the genes.......so now i am running, AND using smarties and velcro!....who....am.....I........

 

[budman678]

i am going dwonstairs tonight...if i find them on a couple chem99s then i will prolly bite the bullet and chop them...

i have some qquestions about hermies:

are the male flowering usually at the bottom?

Do i need to go over them everyday?

if i remove all male flowers do they pop back up over night?

is it possible they may just hermie for a couple weeks and then grow out of it?

is it possible to salvage my crop?

deflated...going for a bike ride!!!!!!!! lights on tonight at 8pm and will be make more decisions...

please send suggestions and your experiences...thanks

You have typical 3rd-4th week nanners. Pick them off and proceed. It is very common for the Chem lines to do this during these weeks. I'd not toss those...it will be a mistake to do so. And me...I'd breed with them...if all else looks desirable.

 

[nugbuckets]

yep......don't cull plants....pick them all off, and carry on.....just recheck everytime you got them out of the tent....it is a pain, but you will be rewarded in the end....and you will probably do your research (hermie tendencies)on the next beans you crack...nugs
