Hick in the sticks: a continuous tale of seed pop'n, pollen chuck'n,& bud grow'n!

My neighbor was talking about making a big sift can with a paint mixer 5 days ago.

Lady - When I was shopping for a big grinder, I came across some vibrating grinders. Why someone would want to shake all the trichs off of what theyre about to smoke is beyond me though.

Id like to get a jogging table, that would work awesome.

Its a small machine with a flat top that vibrates. You can control the intensity of the vibration from gentle massage-like to teeth clattering. I used one when I worked in the inserting dept at the local newspaper.
Flyers get stacked and bundled before theyre totally dry. We would grab a handful, put them on the table and the vibrations would break the bond between the flyers.

Future mother. Khalisi, is one that I plan on keeping around.
Taking proper steps to ensure that, with clones and mothers I'd like to s2 her (self pollinate) and mix and match the four sisters I have.. this is just for my own amusement.:biggrin: she is some killer smoke.

Now as for these ladies thet will reside in my veg cab in the designated mother/clone area. Where I only have 3' of height I will try my hand at bonsi'ing them with LST and taking cuts when time comes.

have you heard of the bonsai sultan method of breeding? you should check it out. right up your alley. shows you how to select phenos for breeding in a 4x4 space starting with 288 seeds. I'm only partway through because they're going to talk about bonsai growing in 2" containers up to 4" when final transplant so there has got to be some goodies about small container growing for yogi.

I have read lightly on the subject, and is something I wouldnt mind using come March where I'll be throwing a whole bunch of beans down to do some pheno runs with various strains mostly OD.. I like the idea of small containers but really hard to get decent size keepers in small organic pots IMO. I see Dr Goodbuds (i think thats him) run his strain (cheesesaw) in 20.oz containers/organic soil/cfl cab and he rocks it but he uses clones.
Now where coco is something that I been looking at as well and is a lil better in smaller containers (from what I gather)maybe thats the route I will take.
I wont be looking at those types of #'s or need of space until end of Feb. early March.
Right now I want decent size girls to flower out under hid

I recall stumbling upon, when in search of other info. side tracked if you will. I will have to find it again and give it a good read . Thanks

What about you Bean, is there any other strains you up to run?:chin:

I have some seeds I bought a long time ago: vanilla kush, animal cookies, LSD by Barney's, critical +, banghi haze, mulange gold landrace, Girl Scout cookies, and I want more! I'm popping the vanilla kush next to replace some of these sativas that have accumulated.

A nice Indie/kush is always nice to have, me I need a couple sativa's. But I'm working on it, got 21+ strain to hunt through.... most hybrids which I tend to prefer for growth, flower time, and smoke.
Where I got the room up and going I can flower long sativa's, nothing too long, but I can just leave it be as I cycle others through around it.
wouldn't mine the forum cookies to giv'em a whirl, see what their all about lol

The cookies are being saved. I'm hoping the Bubbas Widow has a male so I can try collecting pollen. The landrace is interesting for a breeding project but I'm not there yet. For now I want to not cross anything. I haven't really thought about it till recently. I would really like to collect something special like the khalisi you have.

You could do a nice little isolation chamber out of a clear tote, fish tank, trash can, ect.. a couple cfl's doesnt take much, a computer fan 3-4'' and a hepha filter cut down... good to go!:biggrin: you could even in stall a tube for watering/feeding. install a collection try to collect pollen..... badda bing badda boom your got reserve male spunk lol

Me I am cooling down with chuckin just anything, i got plenty of stock with variety. I'll reserve it for F2's of certain strains, s1-2's, and my project if I ever figure it out haha.

I count myself lucky with being able to test and get Khalisi, she was worth it for sure. very limited at the time and not complete from what I gather from SG, he plans on F2's with his top cuts. He did tests (terps,thc,cbd,ect) most in 20's% thc, top ones where 24-26% thc
