Better pictures of red calyxes

This is the best picture I could get of the coloring of the seeds, I will toy around with lighting a little more closer to harvest and try to get a better shot. Crazy color though, I havent seen anything like it.

Seeds are blowing out all over this plant

Here is the proud father, re-vegging in the mid day sun.

For shits and giggles this is what I'm smoking

OB1 male, saving him for an Orange Blossom bx

 

[ixnay007]

Looks like the NVHxVictoria Gold who's about to make some babies in my space, gotta love a healthy male.

 

[TonyGreenHand]

My OB1 male has really nice internode spacing and doesn't begin to branch out for a good bit. This is a Hawaiian trait, but he doesn't have it as much as the others. I plan to pop another 20-50 in the coming months. He's sticking around for now, lets see if he can make it into the finals. Looking for the closest match as possible to the Orange Blossom.

My OB2 male is a keeper for sure. He is revegging with no problems, outside, after being taken down to about 10%. Smells like a skunk farted in an orange grove and has slightly frosted sugar leaves.

Both the BOG and the Purple Berry bx and on full seedage, revegging outside too. Both are filling out their seeds nicely and the BOG smells of intense pineapples.

The lanky guys in the back are some purples.

I'll post more pictures when they are closer to that time.

The Purple Berry and BOG are starting to finish their seed production and will be harvested in about a weeks time I figure. The bog has taken on a steely blue color in its calyxes and the Purple Berry is still really purple.

That looks nice!

Vitamin D day 37 or 38.. half way to go..

 

[TonyGreenHand]

One of these plants couldnt take the weight it was putting on and broke in several places last week, to the point of killing the plant. The plant exploded from the weight.. Heres the stalk..

It broke from the top two nodes down to the next set, peeled like a banana. This is it dried.

Not bad.

More to come, thanks for reading.

 

[ixnay007]

Great looking buds, but I hope you're not drinking from that cola can.. ick.

 

[TonyGreenHand]

Nope it was in the trash but SOME people need size references so I figured I would throw up a few.

 

[TonyGreenHand]

Scrapping this grow, got some rot on these colas this run.

Next time they will be better.

Additional comments:
The Orange hairs on this sample really stood out making this bud come alive. The outside didn't look very frosty but the inside of each nugget was totally frosted. The aroma of fresh Orange Peels and Skunk hit you with every whiff. The smell is much more skunky from far away and can even be smelled through the jar I had my sample in. There was a bitter citrus smell with the orange smell that really turned your nose with each smell.

Smoke test comments:
The smoke on this sample was very fine and did not irritate my throat and mouth much at all, but the expansion had me coughing almost every hit no matter the size. Each toke had flavors of citrus and skunk down to the last hit.

Final comment:
The effects of this sample could be felt immediately upon inhaling. I was easily distracted and it was difficult to put my words in order when I spoke. After about 15 minutes the high was in full swing. I became very hungry but I didn't want to get up and get food. Flavors popped in my mouth and I wanted to try things together I wouldn't normally put together. There was a tingling sensation across the mask of my face and there was no pressure on my eyes. There wasn't too much of a head change, or a change of my way of thinking, but more of a mental awareness. I felt sure of my movements and was not very clumsy. The high was very relaxing both mentally and physically The stone ended after two and a half hours and left my mind and body tired.

 

[TonyGreenHand]

The run that we pulled early has been weighed, and the results are in.

The lowest yeilding one was just under 200 grams in a 3 gallon plastic pot.

Going tomorrow to take pictures and see the totals on every plant.

Additional comments:
This sample looked to be very frosty and had very nice bag appeal. There were many thick, lush hairs all over the exterior of the bud. Every crack of the sample let out a strong odor of orange yogurt that cut through the warm skunky air that surrounded it. Trichomes would fall off and onto the table when I was breaking down the nugget for a bowl leaving a little kief pile. A few seeds were found in this sample that were quiet large, but not fully mature.

Smoke test comments:
The smoke on this would catch me almost every time, leaving me coughing all over myself if my hits were too big. Even on the smaller hits I struggled to keep the smoke in my lungs during expansion. I could feel the smoke in my nose and in my sinus cavity. The flavor was uniform and had many qualities that mirrored the aroma of the sample leaving a very subtle orange flavor lingering in my mouth.

Final comment:
Within the first minute of inhaling I began to feel the effects. I felt mentally elevated and very aware. I felt elongated or taller. I could feel my blood rushing through my body as the high intensified in waves. My mind began to become more separated from reality. I could feel my forehead and nose tingling. I had a terrible back pain that nearly went away completely. I didn't move a lot after smoking this, I sat where ever I was, enjoying my surroundings. When I did move very step I took I would feel the ground move under me as I glided across it to my destination. I felt very calm, relaxed and soothed for the duration of the high. I had really bad cotton mouth but it didn't seem to be a top priority to fix it because that would mean moving again. Nothing could really bother me during the 2 1/2 hours that the high from this sample lasted.

Speaking of the orange project

Speaking of the orange project

Hello again ICMAGers,

It has been a long summer/fall. I ended up going through quite a few males to match up with my Orange Blossom for a BX project, and finally settled on working with male OB1, not only was he the most Orange Blossom leaning male but he also displays a few abnormal characteristics.

I had fully flowered him out this summer and he displayed only these characteristics and no pistil other female expression, other then those calyxes and the level of trichomes. I have decided to use him in the Orange Blossom BX project because of how much like the Orange he smells. There is a sweet citrus orange coming off his stem in veg and on the flip the aroma evolved into a candy orange.

Not only do I plan on working him into the Orange Blossom, but I will also be working another chosen male from my Vitamin D's into the OB as well, in case this trait does in fact have herm tendencies.

At any rate, exciting things are on the way.

Don't see too many trichome covered males.. there's some potential in those genetics.

Here are some better shots of the frost on the Vitamin D male
