Nice!
That will still be a lot of plants, it's totally uderstandable that you couldn't keep them all.
On what criteria did you select which ones to keep?

Thanks! Yeah I never intended to hunt the entire lot, it just gives me a nice playing field to pick a "good team" from early on. Now I have a sizeable hunt but it's already been partially sifted for "star players".

Mostly terps, "effects", growth/vigor/resilience. (The latter is kind of obvious). I say "Effects" because I've gotten scary good at smelling things and being able to translate how they will affect me. (of course I don't pick up on the minor nuances of the high but I have a good enough idea that I can pick what I need.)

ie:.. my last 60+ plant pheno hunt, I could go to any unlabelled jar and tell you what strain and pheno it was without looking at the name. :)

Like grocery store tomato breeders that seem to focus on colour, uniformity and density but neglect aroma and flavour.
Your plants are looking good!

Thank you! :D

Right! Like that stuffs important too and gets chosen throughout the grow... but if I'm in severe pain and I smoke a joint that joint better put me on cloud 9! 🙏

imo nothing worse than being "high" and in pain.

2 plants in the 1 container?

Ran out of soil LOL. I don't want to go lugging more pro mix bales... it's hard with harniated discs. Figured I'd make it work this time and I'll get more soil next month or something.

I really couldn't make the call on that one aha. We'll see what happens. (Even if it's a male and female that's fine with me because I was going to open pollinate that strain anyways.)

I often get asked how I am able to "read" plants... and someone asked me and I actually ended up explaining... Thought it might be a cool read for some of ya'. :)

Day 25. More culling. Didn't feeling like getting dirty tonight, but I'll pull those GTR males tomorrow, look at my notes, and pull the next best GTR picks to replace the males.

Biker Kush F2 - very happy with this little one. Still unsexed.

Eutierria 15. None of the Eutierria have shown sex yet.

Eutierria 39. Very impressive with this pheno! (Also pheno's 5 and 6, not sure why I forgot to picture those!)

GTR F2. Not my preference for showing sex this early, but sheeeshhh this no 1 male... My day 10 veg notes were "Skunky Fuel Funk"... Now she straight up smells like a mechanic shop... that funky grease/gas covered overalls been working on car engines all day kind of funk.
5/6 of the GTR I chose ended up being Male. One is unsexed. One is my no1 selections. The other 4 will most likely replaced with more GTR tomorrow. 🙏

GTR F2 Males. The no1 terps stand out from these four in a brutally impressive way.

It's been awhile since I've had to sex any plants, I kind of miss it in some ways. The anticipation was always a highlight. Otherwise, it looks like you have things under control and moving along.

Yeah it's always exciting, and also why I try to be very fluid with my selection process. I have plans, and back-up plans, and back-up-back-up plans lol.

I'm doing good are you on the OG server as well York? Kinda cool to see a familiar face. Been trying to make friends and do trades but people seem to not wanna trade or something. Well it's ok it's still nice to hear everyone's opinion.

Blue Kush 14 (male). Interesting the way the branches grow horizontal… I’ve had that with one other IBL plant in the past.

Eutierria (keeper) X Mango Bubba. The entire seeded plant put out two seeds (only partially harvested because I wanted to reveg her.)… One is female one is male… Tempted to f2 them to see what I’ll find in there but still deciding.
