Maria's Subtropical Outdoor Guerilla Grows with Connoisseur Genetics (Perpetual Journal)

medium sorted out

What is your native soil like ? I’m a big fan of in ground grows ,by me I can tell just by looking at what kind of weeds are growing

 

[BC LONE WOLF]

Half of the SSSTN Fluffy pheno is jarred.
Presently at a drop site until I can move it to proper storage in a few days.
The other half is dried but still in the 'laundry' if you know what I mean.
The rest of the Grail project NLD pheno is also in the 'laundry'.

I still have literally branches and branches of the Grail x ThaiFrican hanging on the walls.
A big cob? Maybe. I know where to source some bamboo now.

Day something something of flowering, who knows? who really cares?

Meanwhile, the 'little' ones (now more like the short but chonky ones):

First, the pretty delicate Lady Pearl.
She's looking done, to be honest, but ... will get her later this week, I hope.

Next, this girl, looks a bit rough, but the flower development is on point.

There is another girl who is like a slimmer version of the above.
But she looks even more battered, so no pics of her -- she's a bit shy, shall we say?

Then we have a couple of ladies who are lovely and green, though with a bit of bug damage.
One who is a bit chunkier and solid looking:

Her shape looks a lot like their mom, but she's a bit thicker.
Is going to be some seriously delicious and potent herb, I just know it!
That top bud has a nice wobble on it when you shake it (I know you all do this with your top colas!)

And the last, more open and airy, and also with longer to go in her flowering cycle.
This is the lady I showed in the last update pics.

A last bud of their aunty in the background, haha!
Her size is the proverbial American football, and she's still filling out a lot.

Let's just say that I am extremely excited to see how this bud shapes up and smokes.
Their faster sister, that I called the SSSDH pheno, is dried and jarred.
She has some serious diesel terps on her, good thick sati-dom hybrid flower.
And these ladies her are definitely more on the sativa side.
Apart from Lady Pearl and the big puffy slow girl, the others have a nice sati-dom hybrid look to them.
The Pearl and puffy really let the Thai genetics shine out.

And, if I may, these may end up being better quality flower than the big girls who had to endure all that terrible fall weather, multiple typhoons, etc.
Temps are getting lower, of course, but we know from last year that they should be okay.
Apart from the slow puffy girl, who will be airy enough to resist later humidity and cold,
the rest may be finished between now and late Dec / early Jan.

May the sun shine with touches of rain to keep them happy but low humidity.

Signing off,

Looking awesome there, and that Pearl pheno is something else!

I find that the flowers on the big bud (last pic) lean on the colombian side of things, the structure of the flower. I know its a poly hybrid but seems like a strong trait.

It's pretty good, nice color and texture, though a lot of rocks.
But here, it's like a building site, most areas concreted / paved, and lots of construction waste laying around.
In ground is too low, in front of the apartments, like a valley, not enough sun shine.
Also open to anyone who walks in.
Up here, people don't see it unless they climb a few floors in this apartment.
Though I'd ideally be in the ground, not in pots.

Ok I get ,you obviously got a good system going

You picked a good one @Maria Sanchez!. @ojd and I have some different perspectives on some things, but I'll always give credit where credit is due.

The specific traits described by you and others in his recent work are more inline with the best of the original 5haze work than many of the claims out there. Well done!

Pearls are pretty cool.
I should really harvest this girl at first opportunity.
Interesting about the Colombian genetics, she's a SSSTN x ThaiFrican -->

(Swiss Thai Nevil) x (Super Silver Sour Diesel Haze)
X
(Hempys Thai x Nevils Haze 21 x Nevils Haze 36) x (Nevils Haze 23 x Kariba)​

So if there's any Colombian, I guess it's from the Nevil's Hazes, is that right?

@Old Piney -- working okay for two seasons now, but still tweaking and improving.

What specific traits are you seeing here?
Most of these girls have a fair amount of Nevil's Haze in them, with various Thais (Swiss Thai and Hempy's Thai), as well as the Mullumbimby (which also has Thai), and then the Kariba, the SSSDH, and the Jones.
