MadMac

far beyond driven...
Koh Chang/Thai Stick x Ohz90 final day for girl 2, girl 4 in 5 liter pot is coming behind. These girls in pots it feels small for them. 5 liter pot too small and 20 liter is small too. The girls in 40 liter recycled vegetable box or in grow bed on soil like Pachamama haze are doing much better.
Girl 2 on 20 liter pot is getting the chop today
She is over 3 meter tall, very vigorous genetics

I apologize in advance for what you are about to see, I managed to f it up... so I took it down, a few buds seem salvageable. Seems something went really wrong with roots and happened quite fast.. can't pinpoint the cause exactly. It's backed up and will get a better chance after summer..

looks good...
harvest the mature ... or all..
think your fertilizer and medium combination is not good for long time flowering..
good works for example:
Biobizz light mix or similar
and there fertilizer products...
use the half feeding as advertised for light mix
and you're fine.
anyhow.. many thx for the update as well...

after landing i'll got my driver to buy some of the best hash he said... it's true... but makes me also very tired...
maybe mixed with opium... it's black and very oily ... will post some pic's later...
They sell those soft kinds in Amsterdam and have for years.

I think they use alcohol extraction to create hash oil from lower quality sieving and then mix it along with better quality resin to create these soft oily versions of hashish. There’s alot of western genetics being grown in Morocco, and these soft oily ones could have western genetics in them, OG hybrids and what ever is popular in Adam.

Enjoy your trip.

For my part, and unfortunately, this year I am having many problems germinating my seeds again... They take a long time to show the radicle in hydration, and then in the substrate I always have to help them to free themselves from the outer shell, or they end up drying without finish opening it by themselves. And if I don't hurt them by helping them, I do it later by trying to help them break the web or inner integument, which they can't get rid of on their own either... Last year I tried it with the 3 varieties I have, with the exception of the pure O. Haze whose envelope I have not unsealed yet, with the same result... It would not be the first time that I have had problems with seeds sent from Germany to Spain: some "Fly Dragon" (Golden Tiger X Punto Rojo, or vice versa, from Nachillo and Guanche foreros, like the one currently grown by @el mani, never germinated either. ..But it could also be an unfortunate coincidence... This photo is from right now, of an O.Haze "the best" x The Doors, which is drying without being able to break the inner web (it's so stuck that I can't help it without destroying it), and which I already had to help break the outer shell... I give it up for lost, and I just passed another of another variety (I don't remember if it was labeled "O. Haze X Colombian Gold'72" or "O. Haze X Santa Marta Gold")... Let's see if it ends up being fulfilled the saying that "everything really good, takes time", heh... Good health and luck to all.

Montuno..
Maybe the seeds have been very fresh?

I ’ve seen this with my own seeds when they were very, very fresh and when i maybe used too Nitrogen heavy feed when i made them.
I’m germinating a batch of seeds atm. that did the same thing three years ago but today the seeds have been opening much better. So if you’re not in a hurry with those seeds keep them in storage for longer and tthen try again.


I used a toothpick when i was prying open those tight seedhusks.

- Try to grab the seed husk from both ends with the thumb and forefinger of one hand – try to hold the seed between your fingers so that you’re basically holding it by the other half of the husk

Try to hold the grabbing hand securely in place before you start prying that husk away with a tooth pick or you might be pulling the delicate seedling out of the grow medium or damage it

If you are mindful of what you’re doing and take your time you should be able to get most of the husks off. I did this to tens of seeds and only managed to mess up very few


A Tooth pick maybe too dull to tear the ”skinny pouch” cause it can be very tough but you can use a sewing needle for that. Try to get a firm but gentle grip of the skiny thing and try to tear it apart/off abit by bit.

Tiny cannabis seedlings can take quite alot of abuse as long as you don’t snap the stem in two. They’re not too bothered if you break off the cotyledons as long as you don’t mess with the growth tip

Really sorry to hear mate. I've experienced it only a few times. I received some of Star Crash's OHaze and had 100% germination and 100% freeing of the outer shell. In fact, all the seeds I set off this year were 100% good.

I've heard some people suggesting that the chemicals that are sprayed above our heads almost daily have an effect on seeds being able to germinate. Interesting?

They could very well be very fresh seeds, at the time they were sent @GoatCheese; (in fact, it wouldn't matter if they were even very old: they were a totally unselfish gift from MadMac so that I could try those particular selections).
And that the seeds are good, I have no doubt: nobody except me has had any problems; and that even better plants come out of the seeds, I have even less doubts, as you only have to look at this thread.

The problem could also be somewhere in the chain of public postal services from Germany to my corner of Spain: the only other time I was given seeds from Germany (via public postal service and without certification in a simple envelope), several of them were crushed, and the rest never germinated.
And in the same way, I have the impression that the MadMac shipment was also subjected to excessive pressure; fortunately, MadMac's excellent packaging was very resistant.
And another thing that could happen (I don't remember now when MadMac sent me their "gift assortment") in hot weather, is that the seeds may have spent too much time at very high temperatures, during part of their transport, already in my area.
The closest grow-shop to my area (20 kms away) is almost unable to sell seeds from its stock, because it keeps them even in summer at the ambient temperature of its shop, and they lose germination power very quickly...

Besides, it sounds more serious than it probably is: I germinate seeds one by one (I only grow four female plants a year), and I stop as soon as I have four seedlings : that means that between the two years, I have only tried to germinate (with failure) 3 [O. Haze "the best" X The Doors], 1 of each of two other "strains", and O of O. Haze. Right now I'm trying my second O. Haze X Colombiana Dorada... But the sachets of each variety have a lot of seeds in them; I'm sure if I had germinated more, I would have had some plants by now in the last year...

But I'm not in a hurry, and for now I just enjoy what all the rest of you are putting out (what little trees of O Haze X (The Doors X O. Haze), I think, he put out "El Patrón" on his gringo east coast.. . And surely you will rarely see outdoor O. Hazes, grown with the "extreme LST" ("creeping crop", in my language) like the ones that Hombre del Monte can grow. (Note: sorry I forgot to translate my previous message)

hiya Montuno,

Trick I learned from someone here on IC…dab a small drop of saliva straight from your mouth onto the top. Wait a couple hours. If conditions are dry I have done a second time. the moisture and enzymes help to soften things up. After one or two “applications”, grasp the bottom of cotyledons between thumb/index finger in one hand, and delicately pull the membrane/shell off with the other. Like you, my surgery attempts usually kill or deform.

Peace,
F2F

Thank you very much, @F2F.
Indeed, my environmental conditions are very dry and hot; that's why I wet the seed in the process of opening several times a day...: is it still better to try it with saliva?
Just after my previous message, I broke the inner tegument with my fingernails: it was very difficult; although this time I managed to do it without damaging (I think) the seedling, as it happened to me in the past, it seems clear that the seedling does not react... Right now (O. Haze "the best" X The Doors):

Surely, the climatic conditions at the time I germinated must not have helped at all, but on the contrary. Although I germinate indoors, I don't have air conditioning, and the humidity has been fluctuating for days between only 10% during the day and 30% at night... And the maximum temperatures in the shade of up to 44°C (111.5 °F) certainly don't help either...

(I think even MadMac is cooler in Morocco, heh, heh, heh...)
...Although on the other hand, that's how I always germinate...

Thank you very much for your attention and advice.
I will keep you informed about my growing progress from my little yard in the hottest part of the South of Hell...

Salud !!
