[Nico Farmer]

Thanks Nico Farmer. Im glad to share them with everyone, and happier to know people enjoy em too . Were gonna have some Pics of Mr. Nice Shit coming up in the near future. I think that'd be a good time for a Pan shot too! Stay tuned, and I hope you'll like them too!

Hi bro
Thanks, it s always a pleasure to see your beautiful pics and your frostiest buds.
Greetings.

 

[Dave Coulier]

Looking beautiful as usual Dave.
Have you thought about running a low wattage LED/CFL for a couple of hours during the during the dark cycle? It should be enough light to prevent flowering while still reducing photoinhibition.

Thanks ReikoX. Ill try to keep those pretty ladies coming, and keep them nice and healthy for the limelight.

Thanks for the tip. I may give it a try. I think I have some spare cfls laying around here.. A couple nights ago I adjusted the light schedule in the clone/male room to 16/8, but its a little too late at this point. Some are already dropping pollen. Ill have to snap a pic or two of the male with the chunkiest pollen sacks and quarantine the males. I like to place the males in large containers like a trashcan thats taller than them. They'll flower and drop their pollen, but it wont escape from the bin they're in.

Hi bro
Thanks, it s always a pleasure to see your beautiful pics and your frostiest buds.
Greetings.

Well Nico farmer, Ill just have to keep em coming. Dont you worry. My camera will be snapping plenty more pics, and Ill post the best up here for everyone to enjoy. Addiction to bud porn is a real thing, but its okay in my book.

Ill be harvesting two Durban Poison Clones of Sour Pineapple Punch lady soon, so plenty of opportunities to try and get some good pics to share.

Welcome to the thread, and if you have any special beautiful ladies you ever want to share here, post them right up. I like to see other growers special ladies too ya know.

Thanks for sharing Nico. She looks nice and frosty. I imagine she's been harvested by now. I hope she turned out excellent for you!

On a side note, sorry to leave the thread hanging for so long without any updates everyone. Been struggling through some personal issues lately, which has affected my desire to update, and my garden as well. Some of my ladies look nice and healthy even though they've been neglected, and some look pretty bad. Ill share some pics of the nicer ladies in the near future, and I also think it'd be a good idea to post some pics of the unhealthy plants, and follow up with updates as we nurse them back to health. I think that might be a fresh change around here. It can't always be about pretty sexy ladies. The ugly ones need some love too ya know

Ive got some pics to prepare now, but Ill get back to you all soon.

Mr Nice Shit Update

Mr Nice Shit Update

Lets begin the updates with Mr. Nice Shit.

Its been about a month and a half since we saw any Shit, and were still not quite at the finish line with them. A couple appear quite close to being finished. Maybe 2-3 weeks to be ready, while others look like they need at least a month to be ready to harvest.

Couldn't come soon enough as I moved a couple of Durban Poison females in there, in addition to one compact Ace Tropical Mix plant, and I think 4 Columbian Gold x Sour Diesels too. Its a lil crowded in there. Oh yeah, I also put the revegged DurbanxThai female(the one who had the really purple buds). A nice variety in my garden at the moment, and I can't wait to sample all of them.

I was pleased to get a couple of Purple Shits in this batch. They usually pop up around 15-20% of the time. Often times its a mild purple, but the one pictured today has actually gotten much more purple in the buds and fan leaves than I could have hoped for. Ive wanted another variety thats purple to cross to the DP. It looks like I may have found a nice female to suit that role. She's purple in these pics if you can zoom in, but its been about 2 weeks since these pics were taken, and she is much different color now. Ill have to get some pics to quickly follow up on here, so you call can see how much she has changed.

Smells range from Sweet/Fruity/Berry, Sweaty-rotten meat w/ a touch of garlic, hot-garbage, w/ a touch of glue/solvent. I think some would say its got that LOUD smell.

Lets get to some pictures of the lovely lady. She's been featured before, so we will start off with the last photo of her, and progress with the newer ones. At the time of these photos there has been 4 weeks elapsed.

Here she is back on 6/24

On 7/21

 

[Dave Coulier]

You've probably spotted some yellowing in the upper fan leaves. For about a 2-3 week span I had raised up this shit and another one closer to the light by about 12 inches. It backfired on me, and lead to the upper canopy yellowing. Not what I intended, so Ive lowered the plant back down to the floor, and now the yellow has been replaced by purple/red/brown pigments. You all will like the look of her I think when I get the updated photos of her up here.

 

[Boyd Crowder]

dammit dave, u still crushing it bro
i have some durban x flo in the closet now
gonna flip soon as the new cuts root

 

[rockymountainJ]

Amazing Dave!! Lurking through, thanks for the sunday eve read!!!
Cheers!!

DPI(B) Harvest Update

DPI(B) Harvest Update

The final numbers are in on this lady. She produced around 50 grams of primo buds. Not all is pictured as some of it was consumed before pictures could be taken. It couldn't be helped heh.

I saved one of the tops for smoke testing purposes, and with about a months cure it is excellent smoke. After just a couple of bowls I could tell it had improved already in that time frame. The smoke was smooth and tasty, with a strong high setting in about 10 minutes after smoking, but she also hits you with a nice immediate rush to the head when you first begin to enjoy her.

High probably lasts 1.5-2 hours max, but Im also the type of smoker who is hitting that pipe every half hour, so my tolerance is up there, but I was impressed with this lady to be able to cut through my tolerance and deliver an enjoyable high w/ a decent duration.

The buds were some of the firmest, and nicest buds Ive gotten from the DP line so far. Big sticky fat calyxes that make for breaking buds apart real easy with your fingers.

I wish I could share these with all those out there drooling over them. Maybe the testers will someday get to try the DP, but tbh Ive lost faith in Seedbay at this point. I dont know if it will ever happen. Total Bummer.

You may have spotted some other Durban Poison buds in the background of the last photos. That is DP-C buds that are the extreme purple. Not purple highlights like I(b). Ill be working on an update for that lady in the next day or so.

 

[Dave Coulier]

Thanks for the love Crowder. Even in my neglectful hands this Shit has turned out rather nice, but just wait until you see the updated photos! You'll love her even more.

That Durban x Flo sounds like a nice cross. I hope she delivers something excellent to you. I get excited for anything Durban X. Ive even got some unintentional Shit x DP seeds on plants in veg atm! Some of the Shit plants in veg had pre-flower pistils pollinated by the Durban males that had begun flowering beside them. The plant is still vegging just fine, but also developing a small number of seeds for me to test out, without having to pollinate a flowering lady and risking collateral damage. Win Win!

Amazing Dave!! Lurking through, thanks for the sunday eve read!!!
Cheers!!

Thanks for stopping in RockymountainJ. Im glad you enjoyed the pretty pile of Shit heh.. I do hope to provide more Sunday reads in the future, and other days as well for you and the rest of the lurkers.

 

[Boyd Crowder]

dave, can you tell me how you eliminated your russet mites?

 

[ReikoX]

Bummer about those test seeds, have you bothered to follow up on them?

 

[Dave Coulier]

dave, can you tell me how you eliminated your russet mites?

It was broad mites to be exact, but they're just as bad as russet mites too. I had to deal with the borg many years ago, but I destroyed them by using Avid and Forbid. I culled all flowering females, and dipped all my veg plants into Solutions Containing Avid. Then I did a follow up dip X days later with Forbid. It may have been the other way around. But ideally, you want to use both of them to eliminate any borg that survived the other treatment. I believe there was a 3rd and final round of Forbid/Avid. You want to alternate treatments with Forbid and Avid.

Maybe Forbid/Avid is the nuclear option for dealing with mites, but if you want to eliminate them, instead of managing them, go Nuclear. Dont use it on flowering plants. If you have flowering plants with Mites, cull them and dispose of the plants immediately and begin treatment with your veg plants. Id also recommend spraying the solution on the surfaces of your flowering/veg room too. I believe I even used a fogger or two in the flowering room after culling. I then did not use that room for at least a month. It took awhile to get the plants in veg back on track, but once moved back into flowering room things were good to go. Never seen the buggers since then.

Treating smaller veg plants is alot easier than larger ones, so I would recommend trimming back larger plants before treatment.

Bummer about those test seeds, have you bothered to follow up on them?

Yeah, Ive reached out to Oldpink, and even Gypsy himself, who was able to get OldPink back into action, but it appears things have gone into a standstill since then.

DP-D Harvest Update

DP-D Harvest Update

Hey Gang, Im back with another quick update on DP-D, although I believe I may have referred to her as DP-C recently.

She is the lone remaining original seed plant I have. I meant to produce some seeds with her during flowering, but never quite got around to it, yet I still got some seeds from this Mother on the way. The veg clone of her got knocked up by the early flowering Durban Males in the veg room. Im probably a week or two away from having a small handful of seeds from this particular mom.

Once those seeds are ready to be sowed, I want to start a big batch of Durban Poison Seeds from the various moms who have produced seeds previously. We will find some really nice 2nd generation plants Im sure, and hopefully some strong Anise smelling stands outs emerge. I think we could all do with a lil more Durban Poison around here.

Back to DP-D now. I had two clones of her in flower this last time, and buds were on the small side just like the previous run of her. Not quite the chunky buds like DP-I(b), nor as dense, but she still produced some nice quality nugs. Being deep purple does add some extra points though.

Her buds do have a slightly anise smell and taste, but not nearly as strong as the mother of DP-I(b). Man, I really miss DP-I..That smell and taste was something else. Im hoping in the 400-500 seeds I have, I can find another standout specimen like her.

Yield was around 2 oz per plant. More like 2.5 oz if you count the larfy stuff. I was hoping for more with them being big bushes going into flower, but Ill have to be satisfied with what I got.

That larf & trim has actually produced some really nice full-melt kief. When I smoke the Durban, Ill take a small piece of bud and run it along the bottom of the container of larf/trim covering the bud in a thick layer of kief. Gives it that lil extra kick, and bubbles so well when the flame gets close. I think Ill do that right now in fact..

Ahhhhh much better now. Lets get some pics thrown up of this girls buds now.

Side by side with DP-I(b)

Bottom of the barrel buds. This container was so much more full a week prior. Now its completely empty and Im a sad Panda

Next Update will feature two Mr Nice Shits that were harvested tonight. One you've already seen twice before and a newcomer to the thread that is my second favorite Shit of the group. She has fiery orange pistils compared to her siblings which really make her buds stand out. Even has a slight touch of the purple too!

I just pm'd Old Pink again to ask for an update on testers. Maybe If I politely bug him often enough, we will get those seeds into the testers hands.

This blueish purple is a beauty

This blueish purple is a beauty

She's a looker aint she? I gave away my last 8th of that lady as a bday gift to a friend, and the person said they had never seen buds so dark before. (It'd seem to have gotten darker since the initial pics were taken. Ill have to set some more aside for LONG term storage and see if it gets any darker over time). It was well received btw.

Now if I could only get a Durban that has buds like DP-I(b), but purple like DP-D. Now if I could find one like that, that also has that very strong Anise Smell. Thats the dream for me to find in the seeds Ive made.

Ive got some Mr. Nice Shit harvest pics to work through atm, and Ill be updating on some of the Shits, and what has replaced them in the flower room.

Mr Nice Shit Harvest Update

Mr Nice Shit Harvest Update

Im back with another update gang. The end of the line is here for the Shits. They've all been harvested at this point. Ill update on my two favorite ones. They're the real standouts in the group. The first lady shown off tonight is the same one from previous pictures. I think Ive updated on her 2 times now, with this being the third...?

She is the one who took to purpling as she progressed through flowering. Other Shits did too to an extent, but not like this girl. She'd make some of the Durban Poisons envious with her shades of purple. The buds have a mixture of green/purple calyxes with a terp profile that leaves you holding the jar for minutes on end sniffing it, trying to identify the various scents your experiencing.

I dont know if anyone else gets high off sniffing jars of fine smelling dank weed, but I hope that doesn't make me weird..

This plant as I recall had a terp profile that hit all upon the spectrum of what Shit can offer up to the nose. Sweet, fruity-berry, spicy, sweaty b.o., rotten meat, garlic-y. While some of that may not sound appealing to some, let me assure it you all comes together after drying, and just a few days cure. It smells unlike any other Shit plant I've ever had come my way, and I think outdoes any previous Shit plant Ive had. Im glad to have a clone of her to run in the future.

Right now that clone in veg got dusted up by the Columbian Gold x Sour Diesel Male. His reach has been far..Ill be ending up with some unintentional hybrids this around haaha, although Im excited for the Shit x (C.G x Sour Diesel). I didn't plan on doing that yet, but now Ive got my own Skunk derivative to explore some day.

Ive got quite a few pics of this lady to prepare, so I wont get all up tonight. These were taken right before harvest time. Ill have pics of the finished up buds next.

Im fond of this, but it would have looked so much better if Id taken it a week earlier.

 

[Dave Coulier]

This lady produced tons of high quality trimmings loaded with resin glands. More trouble to trim up the buds, but Im happily smoking the trimming at this moment and saving buds for a later sample after some time curing, but Im already pretty pleased with just the trimmings.

 

[Tangwena]

That shit looks nice my friend, but then all your buds look nice. Beautiful growing man you are a perfectionist in my book.

 

[ReikoX]

Beautiful as always DC. Lately my trimmings get pressed into rosin after two or three days drying. I can usually keep medicated with that until the bud is cured.
