East Coast outdoor Kush Breading

Hi my names Red and I have long admired the ICmager's who have shared information. I have been a attentive online learner since the OverGrow.com days and have traveled the world in search of techniques. I have been growing for about 15 years and I am 28 years old. I have worked in California but my passion in growing has been focused in the northeast. VT/NH I have noticed that there are not many east coast growers who have posted their larger higher yielding outdoor plants. I have been working on some outdoor specific strains the have proven to handle to cool wet summers we experience .
Genetics that I have been working and pollinating with over the last 4-5 outdoor seasons include:
Banana Kush
Banana Kush x Pineapple Kush
Blue Dream x Skunk #6
Blue Dream x Skunk #6 x Banana Kush
The Guava

here are some photos from one of my smaller experimental gardens from northeast outdoor season 2012
3 photos are banana kush clones vegged 1 month under t5's planted July 4th into 10 gallon pots mixed with 1/2 Premier Pro mix with mycorrhizae 1/2 black (2 yr aged) vegetable and fruit compost from kitchen scraps.

watered in with 2 tablespoons per gallon of fish emulsion concentrate

top dressed with 2 cups of north country organics pro grow 5-3-4 with ingredients as: oyster meal, kelp meal, greensand,natural sulphate of potash/ magnesia, phosphate rock, natural nitrate of soda, animal protein meals, compost, dried whey

at first sign of flowering around august 4th. I started watering with 4 tablespoons per gallon of Biobizz biobloom every week.

This spot was on the south facing edge of a field in an aged blueberry patch:morning sun hit from 10:30am 12:30am with a break from 12:30 pm -1:30( shade from large oak tree branch that extended overhead) then had direct sunlight from 1:30-7:30 pm. or sunset.

here some more of the banana kush 10 gallon containers potted on July 4th 2012- harvested September 23 2012
Im obsessed with this little garden of 20 or so small containers because of the quality ( stinky biobizz outdoor ) fully organic watered from a syphon from a small spring fed brook behind the woodpile.

Yeah that's a fun late start grow. Pretty girls :) and dank too. That banana kush sounds killer. Did u harvest on September 23rd because of rain or something or did the plants finish by then?

The same year I did some 25 gallons and some homemade 100 gallon smart pots with welded wire fence to support the fabric.

The 4 100's smart pots were potted may 15th 2012. In order from front to back are strains Pineapple Kush, sour D, Banana Kush, and Banana Kush.

The original sour D was topped in April before beeing planted in a 100 gallon smart pot. The sour D apical was cloned in a easy cloner and then planted July 4th in 25 gallon the banana garden. Here are some photo's of the two halves of the plant.

Nice plants - those are proper for the east coast climate. I suppose I never really tried to grow monsters though- just a shit ton of 1/4-1/2lb early variety's.

You need to find the real Freezeland clone out of Quebec or at least one of its crosses in seed form and go from there. That strain is amazing...It can get rained on for 2 weeks at the end of harvest and have minimal mold. Not to mention the quality is all there and I love the piney smell / flavor.

I started around 40 seeds of mighty-freeze one year... which was freezeland x mighty mite... Had a couple keeper's that I grew for a couple years. One of them would stay in veg under 20+ hours of light but as soon as it was placed outside it would flower. It was very nice bud too- It smelled of straight up grapefruit- and had a great taste.

Your plants look really nice brother. When are those Blue dream crosses finishing up for you? You must be in a better climate than where I used to live. I had to have plants harvested middle September to be safe from frosts.

Like stoned trout- I also miss the east coast. The California climate is like no other with the consistant sunny days and no storms / wind. Its perfect for agricultural...But I really miss the changing weather and strong thunderstorms, cooler weather- from back home. Maybe VT will legalize it- I would consider moving back if they would- Vermont is a great state.

Her are a couple pictures of the 100 gallon sour top cola Harvested a little September 13th 2012. The roots of the sour D went straight through the bottom fabric into a cow manure pile and tapped into some serious nitrogen. The very top was about 1.5 oz's dried. This particular strain ( which was some type of bagseed sour D had a strong and fast flower tendency) It broke into a strong flower in mid July and a tried to hold her off by giving her tons of Nitrogen. The plant never really stopped flowering but grew dense green foxtail flowers.

Her is the other half of the sour D that was potted in the 25 gallon on July 4th. It was grown in the Promix/ compost mix with biobizz bloom 4 tablespoons per gallon every week. I also did biobloom foliar both sides of leaves once a week. Same feeding plan as the bananas. This garden ended up looking and smelling like dank organic indoor. Harvested 9/23 in the 603
