Jarilla Sinaloa x Destroyer F2 Colorado Sativas

[Deleted member 534625]

Just dumped 21 seeds into a glass of water for a six hour soak and then they will be planted in a coco coir/worm casting mix in trays with a heat mat. This grow will take a long time from my understanding so posting this thread is probably premature. However, I’m excited and hoping that the overall stability of the destroyer stock will lead to some interesting offspring.

I will be vegging these guys for a while until I have the money to pay for sexing. I’ll likely keep 6-8 of the nicest females by looking at growth characteristics, and then pollinate a branch of each with my chosen male. I figured I would flower the males a month earlier to get data and move on from there.

I am very new to the forum, and am currently
on my way to finishing my first grow in ten years so don’t expect anything spectacular. However I’ll do my best and would appreciate all the help I can get.

I’m currently working with 1200 watt dual spectrum spyders, flora trio nutes and my current grow looks descent but I’m still considering alternatives for the next grow. I used to use MH/HPS but am trying to save some money. These guys were simply cheap on Craigslist for my first grow back; 300/3 units

BML Horticulture Spydr 1200 LED Grow Light Review

BML calls themselves the LED Leader in Horticulture Lighting Systems. If that’s the case, the Spydr 1200 LED Grow Light should be a fantastic option for those looking to replace a 1000 watt HID – correct? Yes. We’ve had our chance to test out and review this top of the line fixture from BML, and […]

Part of the reason I’m posting on here is just to chronicle the overarching process and date everything for my own benefit.

Anyways, I’m yammering on per usual haha. Thanks for joining. Current grow is lemon tree, 2- harlequin, 2-headbandcookies and one forum GSC. I’m looking for ward to a real Sativa but I will say this lemon tree smells rancid.

Finally a grow report for colorado sativa. Sitting in on this one

 

[San_Pedro]

I've been hoping someone would run stuff from them also. Good luck, I'll be staying tuned.

Same as above. I actually just found Colorodo Sativa Co and am interested in a few of the lines. Notably the Oaxaca S1. Ill be watching!

The MEXICAN DEATH SATIVA x HIGHLAND GUERRERO has my attention

Haha if this works out I’ll be buying every type they have. Claims to have quite a few legends but I’ve never seen any finished grows. I dropped a 100$ in curiosity and got tons of seeds and good freebies. Only time will tell if the finished flower was worth the hassle

I actually got that for the project but opted for the destroyer cross which was actually one of the freebies. It seemed liked the destroyer was potentially a lot more stable. From what I read, MDS is a pool of tons of stuff. Sounds a little complex for my space, not that I won’t try someday.

 

[alvin88]

Yeah its a sweet deal and your the 2nd person I've heard say he gives a lot of freebies. I'm itching to do a side grow guerilla style next season and it will probably mostly consist of his Mexican varieties. Trying to find that "highschool weed"

Edit: fuck it, just ordered a pack each of Oaxaca, and mexican death x highland guerrero. I won't get to run most of em till next year but I'll squeeze a few in my tent this winter.

After a six hour soak I mixed up some cococoir, worm castings and planted them. The light is a cheap led I use for germinating my tomatoes but should work for this.

The Vivio heating mat I’m using is actually pretty cool for 25$ on Amazon. Has a heat probe, incremental temp control. Been messing with the probe location which is why it reads so hot but it should be inching back down towards 80 today.

I was curious what you guys thought about lights for the flowering process? I have always heard high intensity for landrace so im not sure if the bigger LEDs I have will cut it. Link is in the initial post.

I thought about going back to two 400watt HPS for 8 plants but I’m still unsure.

Why the sex testing? I could see with some sluggish indica that needs months of veg but with this cross..

 

[RobFromTX]

Guys i contacted dubi about the Guatamala S1's from Ace he has listed, to see if it was a legit source. NO disrespect to colorado sativas, i'll still be getting some beans to test run. Just passing along what i was emailed

Hi Rob,

We have no relationship with the website you mention. They are obviously copying our work without our permission.
Pics they post are lame, they not even know how to grow, call S1 what is not, they are pirating us,
already contacted them 3 years ago but they continue getting money from our work, strain names and reputation,
i would black list them and not mention them anymore. Probably what they are selling is totally fake.

Have a nice day, dubi

I can’t pretend to be well versed in the politics involved here but I see no reason to doubt that the guy bought some beans from ace and grew them out. Don’t get me wrong I understand why Dubi would be pissed but the guys only charging 25$ for a bag of 20 seeds and he claims it’s just to cover his time. idk

How far removed does seed stock need to be before you can ethically resell?

It seemed quicker. I only have the space for 6-8 females and a couple of males. Just hoping to have a big pool to quickly pick from

He sells landraces. Thats good enough for me. Im all about mexican sativa

 

[goingrey]

I think they will do well under the LEDs.

 

[Deleted member 534625]

Quick update, germination ratio is solid for the first three days. I’ve counted over half, many not visible.

 

[Deleted member 534625]

 

[Deleted member 534625]

Nearly 100 percent and growing quickly. I’ll likely have to transplant sooner then I would have thought
