Haflbaked is a new papa.

[halfbaked]

Well I got my seeds the other day and I'm starting a new grow. Here's whats goin on so far. Have all supplies together. Took 6 dixie cups and filled them with potting soil. Placed 2. Skunk#1, 2. Twilight, and 2. pok kush x citral seeds direct in the soil(1 seed per cup) and waited.(halfbaked paces in the waiting room). Well yesterday 1 skunk, 2 twilight and 1 pok sprouted.
Will be letting the babies grow a little under a floro before putting them under the HPS. Hopeing the other 2 sprout today. I will look for my cheap digi cam so I can take pics to share with you all. Wish me luck and I will update this regularly, barring any stoner moments

good luck with your grow. I have 2 pok hkX bubbleberry going now and they are coming in really large, huge actually. I also started some home bred beans(divine medley X apollo mix), I was waiting on some space. Keep us updated as I would like to see how the pok citral grows out.

 

[halfbaked]

Thanks for your reply DT. I look forward to growin those pok seeds. In my research on this strain i've found that it's an indica which means short and stuby and I like that. Anyway the strangest thing happened. A couple of these sprouted upside down. Now I've been growin for a couple of years and I've never seen this before. But I was lookin at these plants and they didn't look right so I went to pokin them with a pencil tip and noticed that the growth tip was up and the seed shell was down so I took a pair of tweezers and corrected the situation. So far they seem to be do'in alright. they are under a little flouro light untill they get stronger, then onto the HPS.

 

[deZerTomB]

weird about the upside down, i guess we'll never see it all.

 

[halfbaked]

Well I guess the procedure was not a success It appears on has become very stunted, one has died all together, and one looks like it might survive but still looks rough. So far I have only one twilight and one skunk doing well.
I'm trying to germ 2 more seeds as I want atleast 4 plants. Hope these next 2 do better.

 

[deZerTomB]

I learned to germ extra seeds, you can always weed out the weaklings so to speak, or keep the extras in veg a long time for the next batch, or if any large percentage of males and of course some that just won't germ. Good luck on the next ones. 8+)

 

[halfbaked]

Well the one little one that was in critical condition as pulled through, turned the corner,blah blah . It is green And growin towards the light. All ready has the first set of true leaves and is doing great. Still waiting for the other two I'm trying to germ. So far I have 1 skunk, 1 twilight,1 pok kush x citral. Trying for 4 plants, 5 would be good. Have my space all set up and just waiting for the litle ones to get a little stronger before I put them under the big light.
Here we go. Found my digi cam still need some batteries befor I can take some pics to show. Give me a couple more days and we'll see some shots of the babies.
I plan to make this a journal of the whole grow with pics and everything.
hope there are no problems, er,further problems to deal with.

 

[halfbaked]

Well just got three more seeds germinated. 3 twilight. They popped out of the dirt yesterday and are under a flouro for now. They are looking great.
So I now have 6 plants. 1 skunk #1, 1 POK kush x citral and 4 Twilight.
The original 3 are a little ahead of the new babies but it'll be okay.
I wound up using the paper towel method for these last 3 and as usual it worked best. here we grow!

 

[halfbaked]

Just transplanted my little ones. I have a total of 5 plants growing. Had to kill one cause it was in real trouble and I felt that it was not worth the effort to try and nurse it back to health. My space is pretty small and fitting 6 plants in their big pots is really difficult. Hope to have some pics up soon. hopefully today. So far the count is 1 skunk#1 and 4 twilight. Maybe I can get a skunk#1 x twilight cross? Keeping my fingers crossed.Depending on the number of females in this grow, I may just do that. I'm sure this has already been done but it would be nice to come up with my own seeds for a change.

 

[deZerTomB]

good luck, hope you get lots of females & 1 male. 8+)

 

[BigToke]

I’m a wishing you lots of luck Halfbaked, hope ya get good ratio turn out.

 

[valk]

Good luck with your new stock. I'm curious to see how your POK Citrals come out as I got a bunch as freebies from Gypsy, but every one of them was cracked...

 

[halfbaked]

Thanks for the replies guy's. Valk, unfortunately the pok x citral met an untimely demise. I'll have wait till next time to try again. I was looking forward to trying that one out but such is life. The twilight is a new one for me and i'm excited about that one cause apparently some of the buds turn purple on these plants and it's and indica strain which I haven't grown in a while. The plants are all about 1 to 2 weeks old now and to germinate another couple of seeds would put the new ones kind of way behind the others and frankly I don't have the space in my area.
I'm waiting for my kid to bring over his digi cam so I can take some pic's to show everyone. I had one but it took a crap.
Thanks again everyone, for stopping by and look out for some pics.

 

[halfbaked]

Ok. Finally the pic's I've been promising to post. I went out and bought a digi cam today. Pretty nice one for the amount I paid. It was on sale.
Anyway, These are all twilight.





These are all about 2 weeks old from seed. under my 400 watt HPS.

 

[halfbaked]

Here is my skunk#1

I'm still learning how to use this camera so I hope to have better pics as the grow progresses.

 

[halfbaked]

Here are some updated pics of the grow. This is one week later. They are growing like crazy.










This one is some kind of mutant. It is very bushy.




This is my skunk # 1
Everyone is doing well. Hope to feed them for the first time next week. Right now they are going on the nutes that came in the soil.

 

[halfbaked]

Well things are moving along nicely. 2 days ago I gave the babies their first feeding. I used Safer brand all purpose plant food with fish emulsion 4,1,2,
And today they are growing like weeds

Here are some pics. Based on experince I belive I have 2 males and 3 fems.


















We have alternating nodes now and I'm starting to cut back on the light so as to start flowering these babies. I don't want them to get too big cause then they will be un-manageable in flower. not much space you know?

 

[halfbaked]

Some up-dated pics of the grow. These plants are growing like crazy and they smell incredible. I know some folks want low smell plants due to stealth but I love the way these babies smell.
This is by far the easiest growing strain I've ever tried. They are very low maintanence.(sp). Can't wait to smoke them and find out the rest of the story.


















stinky plants Fixin to go in to flower in the next couple of days. I like to decrease the light gradually and right now they are getting about 13 hours of light a day. In the next couple of days they will be in 12/12.

A fight breaks out

A fight breaks out

Lets see if I can generate some interest in this thread cause no one seems to care about my plants.
Halbaked you're an idiot!

 

[halfbaked]

No I'm not! you suck!
