LOL The fans are almost black!! Leaves are still soft & pliable, buds still smallish & firm....took some pics! Guys??? Do I take her down now???? I'm serious here, cuz I don't know, but my gut is saying "Take her NOW!!!"...LOL Well? Also, some pics of my area & my Mountain...1st 2 are a long shot of my mountain & a closer view...the rest are taken up the road a 1/2 mile or so...I love this time of year...all the purty colors!

What plant is that? You need to find one a little shorter in flowerOkay, took road trip into AZ for 6 days & before I left, the 8000 ft grow was doing OK...but starting to darken on the fans....got home & this morning I go out to take a look...OH MY GAWD!!!

The flytraps eat whatever crosses their path, and judging by the population density, I must assume that she's surviving mainly off of rove beetles. Its kill or be killed in my natural system. gonna add some pitcher plants at some point as well... seems to fit my style better than a piece of hanging ratboard (gave up on flypaper... ratboard is stickier and stays that way longer)
Little update on my Pimp daddy purps project.
I have my 10 fems harvested and mostly dry.
Will probably get them to the labs the Monday after next.
Honey and I have been sampling half of them so far.
We both think that they are very good and think the average will be better than the other tests.
Will have results in 2-3 weeks.
My regular females are good and bad so far.
This is a female that has been banished to outside to finish.
I found this on her, only one, but dooms this plant and her cuts.
View Image
I found similar clusters on my last run of old Doc's GDP F-2's.
2 of 3 females did this same hermie clustering, the skinny grape pheno never did this, but did throw nanners.
Same plant outside in banishment.

These are my PDP 2.0 project.
Back 2 on left are Cali GH GDP's (I think S-1's)
Front 2 on left are from regular stock from back east.
The 6 on the right are all my own 2x selective breedings of The Purps.
View Image
I will see if I get a GDP male from the left 4, but will find a good male to breed from The Purps if not.
Drumroll please
Pimp daddy fem results are in.

#10

That was a surprise.
Now to pick the best.
I will save the top 5 for another run.
Then probably have them tested for terpene profiles.
Hot dam fellas---finally got my 20% and then some.
well, on the Ashratu I have an intended plan that involves a 3rd set of genes to be added on the 3rd generation crossing... from there I'll begin the F generations... just making a flo/forum cookies x glue cross in F-1 and calling that a day just seems too easy and not stable enough to count on quite yet... Plus, I'm starting off ass backwards compared to most... I will take 3 males from successive generations back to the same momma, as opposed to looking for successive gens of females, I'm looking for males from my seeds for now... instead of doing daddy-daughter, then daddy-grandaughter et al.. I'm doing mommy-son, then mommy-grandson etc... I'm not looking to walk a beaten path... the most important to me is to have fun with it, and try out some of my ideas...
You still popping the Grape Stomper OG on the 31. Been getting the itch to pop mine.
And I just popped 10 Dark Daddy Purps ( Dark Goblin x GDP )the other day. Can't wait to see what I get from them.
That is a really weird GDP you got there SG, I have pop a few of them beans and have gotten a few late nanners but nothing like that.
Glad to see you got your 20% and then some.
Oh yah!
Halloween fo sho.
Haven't set a deff # of seeds to pop.
Been going overboard on new starts.
I believe you were one of 2 guys that picked #9 pimp daddy before testing.
Top cut was #9
I just posted 16 budshots of my Khalisi run on the Khalisi project thread, you should pick the winner of that run for me, then I can just toss the rest (not really)
I haven't been too lucky with the GDP females, weird huh?
This go around, starting with 2 separate GDP females(2 sources), 3 The Purps females from my #1 pheno IBL and 1 male GDP and a male purps.
I'll breed every combo then cull after females tested.
I won't fail this time.
Good test results were a treat for me.
The fems didn't resemble the skinny grape pheno GDP at all, but I deff have some tasty potent keepers to play with.
Breeding the best of them is still a go for the PDP project.
You still have them beans, you may want to play with a few, it's very good weed.
