Hey I am starting a fem. pack of Siberian Ruderalis!
So far it seems almost every seed is doing well, 7 out of 8 should make it for sure! :)

I wanna buy soil for these because of special low nutrient needs, but I dont know how low I need to go?!
Thinking about buying Canna Terra Professional Plus and mix with 20% Coco?!
Canna Terra Professional Plus has 140mg N per Litre, 90mg Phosphor per Litre and 110mg Kalium per Litre!
So it is already quite low, I will not put extra Guano like with normal plants.
Or is this still too much nutrients?

Excited for this grow :)

Hey Kijell, that would be way too rich. A seedling-starter mix or Lightmix with coco coir and sand would be best ;-)

Cheers,

Hey freind,
I got a question for you, well more of a brain picking...
I'm growing frosties purple freak,
This is one slow starting gal...
Is there any trick or tips to keeping this thing good? I haven't fed it ive watered it like twice so far, it's doin good but a bit droopy...
It needs to live I'm really excited foe it...
So like when do you start feeding?
Does it like high or low intensity light?
Umm any other things you could say is helpful. I'm getting impatient with her lmao View attachment 19178587

Hello Joe,

The trickiest part is the first 2-3 weeks, then it gets easy.
Just make sure to let the soil dry up enough before watering again.

The FPF is a medium feeder, very low maintenance from week 4 onwards..
It like a good amount of light and you'll almost never need to defoliate.

The smell is oftentimes surprisingly strong...

Best,
Al

Okay thank you for the reply!
I never worked with seed mix soil in all my years, always started it in this mix I mentioned.
They already in it, I hope they survive and grow until I can put them in new soil!
Did not think I would have to go lower than this :D

I will keep you updated, actually every seed came nicely now very cool, 100% germination rate yea!

Update: Good News, I did a stem rub (super crop) on all of the plants. They pretty much all smell wonderful, some stand out however.
#5 and #10 being the loudest and both having spicy and woody aromas.

Honestly might get regulars and search for a good male.

Very interesting structure on both plants, very wide swooping bow shaped branched plant.
Ancestral spirit plants, looking at them feels like looking at a lost scribe. Guess the mushrooms have me connected with them.

Balkh

Balkh

The Balkh hashplant is one of the most legendary afghan cultivars. This flavorful landrace variety has been used for hundreds of years for making a sweet and fruity hashish of the highest quality.



Probably an opinionated post. So if any other then dubi do not like what im saying, carry on. What we feel think smell or SEE are often a debatable topic. And at times a division. But they are still just that, an opinion. Till maybe we get some science thrown in.

Unless dubi disagrees then i will gladly remove. This is his thread. Much respect Dubi!! Cant wait to to grow these ACE KA5 that i started.

Onto the post.



Is it me or does SOME parts of this 2 pictures resemble the ECSD in some ways? Not all. We often speculate on origins of genetics. To me it seems there maybe some shared traits going on between the Balkh in these photos to the East Coast Sour Diesel. Some type of patternicity.

Ive spent some time with "chacos ecsd cut", directly from him on more then one occasion. An i know there are plenty of variations of it floating out there.

To me, this 2 pictures of Balkh hashplant flower(not the others) have some characteristics to the ecsd. Particularly the single leaf blades tucked into the main cola. the overall calyx pattern to create the cola / flower structure. the single leaf blade curl. (thou these may seen abit over fert with nitrogen, again, an opinion)

(A quote here from dubi's original post that i could not get to carry over correctly once this message was edited)

This Balkhi cultivar is easy to grow and flowers relatively quickly. At first the plants all look very similar but as they flower, they start displaying a wide array of aromas, shapes and colors. Not unlike other north Afghan Landraces, the plants can be broad to narrow leafleted. The fastest flowering phenotypes usually display broad leaflets and are medium producers. However, the plants which require 10 to 11 weeks to flower can be very high yielders.

Thanks to its very high genetic diversity, this cultivar can be extremely useful to pheno hunters looking for rare gems.





The ecsd 11 week flower time is on par with balkh.

The genetic diversity in the balkh seems to ring true with the ecsd as well. I remember hearing chaco talk about how quickly the ecsd offspring would be all over the place. Getting the desired ecsd traits to reappear from seed offspring was difficult in low number seed starts.

Below photos are links from chaco (since he deleted his account, now shown as guest121295) from the ecsd thread post #173,367, 414 Also i think its important to note these pics where 15 years ago. Morphology from the environment is real. Among other things, the radiant heat from HPS drove the plant in different ways.

Winner winner chicken dinner..
Those Curled frosty one finger leafs..
As it's landrace based,
the leaf curl could be from giving to high of a nitrogen content ( in the feed.)
Not sure if the Sour does this as a specific trait
Or we've all been over feeding for years. 😆
Or feeding wrong ratios for sure
I should say.

They usually storm through the first part of flower, 4,5, weeks easy. Even 6 then drop the n.
Keep temps lower 25.c ISH.

It's the balance of elements in the feed that
Give success or disaster.

Edited to make sense..lol

I thought the single leaf was just coincidence, isn't a wholly unique trait.
Again just an opinion, not every plant ive witnessed seems to have this single leaf trait.

I hope this doenst turn into the sour diesel shit show. lol, but honestly im super interested to know.

It also could be possible that this plant or some plants are more sensitive to N then others. Or Different forms of nitrogen. One plants threshhold is 150ppm of N. Then the next genetic displays as excess N anything over 100ppm. Or is it that one genetic is just really good at metabolizing N.

Among other things we also know plants carry many differnt types of good bacteria & fungi and secreate exudates to alter soils. A plant that may seem N sensitive, but what if its deemed sensitive becasue it actually carries with it a cyano or azo bacteria that aids in nitrogen fixation?



since i have had many of many conversations in person with chaco, im pretty sure i can speculate these ecsd where grown with GH micro bloom. prob the old 6/9 or 8/16 ratios an 0-10-10 liquid kool bloom PK booster.

for speculation sake. Im gonna check the ecsd thread again later for pics from different growers. See if i can validate a different grow approach, like soil organic, or just lower N photos. Then if possible partially validate they would have the same cutting that was shared, or atleast the same circle etc.

fun fun

Okay all Siberian Ruderalis are outside now. Pictures will follow :)
It seems 3 out 7 are quite sensitive to my soil and not doing that well. Although they are in seed soil now.
Others are doing good and can take a bit more and thriving on it. I think some phenos can take more nutrients and will grow better for me.
Lets see how they will handle the low temperatures in the next days.
