My little garden - 43°N 2007 outdoor session

[trapik]

Hello ICers,

This is my first thread there. I used to post on OG... yeah, missing it.
This will be the story of my little outdoor garden.
Welcome there, thanks for stopping or passing by!

I grow organics, in pots:
bio compost, 'sea bone meal', various shit (sheep, fish..)...
I use Biobizz and Plagron ferts and boosters, plus some other organic stuff.
I make my own insecticides, as bio as possible (garlic, pepper, neem, soap, essential oils..).

What are we running for this year?

• AK47 (Serious Seeds, don't you know?), old sativa pheno. The one you can see here and there, in West Europe, shared by many growers. If you wanna see an hedge of it, check The_Skunkist guerilla grow thread If you wanna see a pair of buds from my 2005 garden, check my gallery. I love that plant, I luve its buds, I love its smoke, I love its taste, I love its high. I should be able to smoke the roots eh.
I have 2 plants from clone.

• Belladonna (Paradise Seeds), at least 60indica, 40sativa pheno. I bought the seeds in 2000 or 2001, can't remember. Then I shared cuttings and I can get it back every year. You can check for the 2005 buds in my gallery. This is a lovely plant, with a truly unique taste and a very clear effect (cocaine effect with fun added). Something like a mental cleaner, especially after many joints from other strains. A good yielder also, with a bunch of resin.
I have 2 plants from clone.

• Belladonna×Litzi Skunk, surprise pheno (looks 50/50.. at least I checked it as a girl!). I got the seeds from knospe, a very nice swiss guy on OG, few years ago. Another buddy said that I have to give that cross a try as soon as possible. Hurry go.
I have one plant from seed.









Actually they're in 12 and 15 liters pots.

Other small plants will complete the family.
AK47, B×LS...
And a fresh rooted White Russian clone, another gift from The_Skunkist. Thanks again again buddy.
They'll all go out soon.





They won't be many updates till blossom starts. Once a week should be enough for a decent journal


Thank you all for interest,
Have a nice season
peace

Hello,
Thank you all for the kind words and support, really.

Bonga, nice to see you, I also remember your macro shots on the 'off-topic macros' thread! I didn't look for an existing thread there yet... will do!

Paddi...

???
It seems you are! Glad to see you, and happy to follow your impressive outdoor work!

esbe, I'll do my possible for the grow-show. I just hope the weather will be mild. We had a really cloudy time there. Like never. And it still does. Some of my clones started flowering some weeks ago and it's been hard to force them vegging again. That's why you can notice some '3 leaves' here and there on the AK-47 lil mums .

Backcountry, thanks for keeping sharing experience and advices. Thanks for joinin in!

hey phil, neighbor. Thanks for the support! glad to see so many OG refugees by there. IC seems to be the new right place for sharing.

Thanks again Dime, teddybud, smurf and Highlighter.

Best wishes for your grows!

Trapik...Love your pics and plants. We have the same taste in strains too..lol
I grew the Blladonna last yr and an AK47 purchased in 2003.The AK47 was my first strain ever purchased and my first indoor grow.Your plants look very happy BL

 

[trapik]

Hello people,

Thank you budluver.
I think we are not a few loving these strains
Belladonna isn't well known though. There are some crazy phenos in it (vigor, potent..).
This is only my 2nd attempt with AK47, with that same particular pheno btw. But that's the kind of weed you only need a hit from to know...


The first pepper is popping out :smile:

The_Skunkist's White Russian is coming slowly but surely since I topped her.




3 cuttings were given to me by my sister's boyfriend.
One is a 'The Church' (fem. beans from Green House Seeds).
Two others come from a Jack Herer × Blueberry cross (or the other way, no more info atm).




And finally some news from the girls, outdoors. We had a bit more sun, then plants get bigger and taller. It's that simple.
But today is another rainy/cloudy (sun)day. So many songs about that running through my head hehe.
Good weather for cool pix though...




• Belladonna ---- • AK-47 ---- • Belladonna × Litzi Skunk




Thank you all for peeking in, following, supporting,
Good luck with yours.
peace

the gals are looking great Trapik, i see big colas in your future

 

[esbe]

so fine bro, did you get Belladonna × Litzi Skunk from knospe or paddo?

 

[trapik]

Hi bro, sorry for the delay...
I got them from knospe, 3 or 4 years ago. With Alpine Rocket (were not good beans) and Erdbeer×Purpurean Ticinensis (which was excellent, as you know)
The B×LS looks pretty good, and seeing its shape and odour, it will give fat and tasty buds.
I have to repot soon, but I wait for a 'better moon' (jul.14 and following days)..
Will give them some Atazym, then add some Alg-A-Mic* (fine product for poor soils) to usual food for the last days in their 12-15 ltrs pots. They'll wait safely.
I'll have to repot the little AK-47s and B×LS clones, the White Russian one and for sure the Church and Blue Jack (now rooted?) cuts.

Thanks for following!


*edit: alg-a-mic (biobizz), not alga gro (plagron)

Hello there




Update!

• AK47----• Belladonna----• Belladonna×Litzi Skunk



We had a pair of sunny days, there. Some rainy also...
Both AK47 are ok, they now understand they're at the growth stage...
I'll trim them tomorrow.



Ok, this one's in the wind...



I already trimmed the smallest Belladonna. There were toooo many low branches!



I like the other one. Which will be trimmed a lil, soon enough!



The Belladonna×Litzi Skunk is going to be a big plant, no doubt.



And finally a pic of the clones.



peace and sun for all

..

 

[DimeBag65]

Very nice trapik, the ladies are looking very beautiful and happy. the peppers look like they are coming along nicely as well. the belladonna X litz skunk certainly look like they are going to be some very nice yielders. Will be looking forward to your next updates.

 

[oaktree]

Those plants are massive, any possible pound producing plants? nice work, hope you get loads of sweet sticky flowers

Peace
