small garden update , the lowryders are flowering good now , they still have 3-4 weeks to go especially the big ones as they are long flowering phenos , the short ones are , lol , short flowering and have a more indica structure
The LR2 all smell very dank sugary and fruity
the auto ak smells also good now , it smells like guerillia gold a bit but the buds are weird , i just don't get this plant
the LR3 doens't smell dank , it smells a bit like LR1 , guess this is a bad pheno
So from the seeds i'll get very soon , i think only auto ak x lr2 will be worthwhile , but the f2 of auto ak could also have good plants, but i only have one female and she is fucked , she this for me would not be the ideal choice
trainwreck bonsai
happy brother
sssdh(deficient) , ssh/amnesia whatever/ happy ho uh bro
sour bubble and lots more
my mothers in the sun , they all have been in a 1 liter pot for like 5-7 months
new LR2
diesel ryder , she is almost done
lowryder 2 f2 short indica pheno
she is about 30-40 cm high
auto ak female , smells lovely now but her buds are fucked up , they are just little nugs on sticks , never forming a decent big chunky bud
she also has heat damage as yesterday it was friggin hot in the GH and i forgot to water the last 5 days
auto ak male smells nice and is frosty , so that's why i think the auto ak f2 seeds still have a chance to become decent
LR2 medium tall sativa pheno
the poor girl is in the shades almsot all day, she is dwarfed by the 2 other lowryder 2 plants she could have been a nice yielder
she smells very dank and is nice n sticky
LR2 tall sativa pheno 1 one meter high , very nice plant with a nice head cola , all tower calyxes growing together
LR2 tall sativa pheno 2 she is about 120 cm high , this is the biggest one , but i like the buds from the one before better , on the other hand this one smells much danker and is frostier this one still has at least 4 weeks to go
LR2 medium tall sativa pheno 2 60 cm
also a very nice one , this one makes chunkier nugs , less sativa like
i really like the LR 2 and up to now is my favorite
don't be fooled by the pics, they look done cuz there is an oscillating fan in front of the male blowing the pollen in the air all day, so all new white hairs are constantly pollinated and thus become red
all the LR2 sativa phenos will go to the end of this month , maybe a bit longer they flower for like 8-10 weeks
@ liquidlight , do you really thinks the auto ak looks good? look closer at the buds, the plant structure is beautiful , but the buds are weird , but thanks any ways for the compliment
this week i watered 3 times with rooting stim , cannazym and bio bizz grow , they gained 1/3 of their size in 5 days so that is good news
the only plant now hat won't yield so well is the danish gold
She is just too early and i didn't expect this , she is already forming small buds but is really small , i wil run her next year on guerillia again for sure but i will put her out sooner
she is about 2 weeks earlier then my canadian girls
Well i've seen alot of AutoAK pics before now (never grown it myself) and yours look as good as any ...well almost. I know what you mean about the bud structure ... i've seen some varietys ... often outdoor ones (purple pineberry for instance) with buds like that. I don't mutch care for looks as long as the smoke is nice.
You're producing alot of seed this year yes? And i've been wanting to ask what Latitude you're growing at? (so i can compare growth rate and flowering time with the Frisians). You have alot of early varietys so you're obviously above 45 N i'd guess.
@ liquidlight : i'm growing just beneath holland(20 miles) i don't know my lattitude
But N europe
Update without ppics
Just visited my guerillia spot
I went at 6 in the morning because i had to spray my plants preventively against mildew, cuz the other plants in the forest have mildew , i also treated them against insects
tomorrow morning i will return and spray them one final time with something like Amistar , against rot and botiryts
On a less positive note
A: works are progressing at my guerillia spot , they are still half a mile from my spot though , i think next year my spot will be a dull conrete road with a hotel for some rich dude
B. I think i lost a danish gold
Something had been gnawing at the stem , and the bark is all gone, the plant is totally hanging and looks like it had 2 much water
I am gonna give it one or two days , it she doesn't recuperate , out she goes , and in come the Amnesia /ssh/ whatever mother of mine
On my second patch , i am gonna put my sssdh(ojd) mother
And that will be the last plants being put out
too bad abouit the danish gold , she had been flowering for one week and was the earliest plant i had
I bet you it's slugs. When i visited my plants the other evening i found a big fat slug just sitting on the stem at the base and it had been eating away at the bark all the way around. I was quite alarmed at the damage it had done. I've now got some copper wire and thin copper strips to wrap around the stems of all my plants to keep the slugs off.
A friend has also suggested i support the base of that plant with a stake and ties.
Thx guys , yeah i really like autos now and i think there is a bright future for them , i would never grow em indoor , but for our climate they are purrrrfect
if i can stabilize and make an f3 /f4/f5 of the big long flowering heavy yielding ones , i would be very happy
about the effect , i think lowryder 2 is really strong and super tasty
It is stronger then the amnesia and the nlx i bough in a coffeeshop and effect wise can compare with any indoor i smoked
i have a bit of lr2 from dread, when i smoke it , it is ok , but when vaped i get wasted to the point of not feeling comfortable tp drive
Buds are rather small , but i don't give one bit about looks as they often are deceiving,
this one does not look pure happy brutha, is it my hybrid?
Here a smal update from the frisians at my buddies , one or two plants have a bit of burn , but overall they are doing real well,
I have forbidden him a while ago to feed my plant and i am glad i did
It is going real well now
We also made a concrete fence to shield his garden from the street
This means that now , we can put the plants spread over the whole garden.
They will REALLY take off now as they will be put on the lawn. Before they where on tiles , now the roots can shoot throught the pots and into the native forest soil at my buddies
Still i am gonna put 10 gallons of good flowering soil beneath my pot and also will fill the pot almost entirely now with flowering mix , this way the plant will have more soil to devellop it's roots
Here a few pics
We have scrogged the danish golds and the one guerillia gold
They are just starting to flower so timing was just right to have a carpet of buds(or like arnold would say , cahpeht of buds )
the danish golds and one guerillia gold
all have been scrogged , because theyr where put out so late , they where really small , so to maximise the yield , we made sure every bud gets the same amount of light
inspired by Verdantgreen's wonderful scrogs
my buddie's frisians
because my buddy really liked what he saw with the danish scrogs , he wanted to do the same with his frisians,
I don't think this is a good idea , because he will lose a lot from these plants IMHO
the plants where already too large and high when he starteed scrogging and still have a month to grow
What do you guys think about scrogging them so late?
I mean look at the bottom part of the plant , this simply won't get any light when the scrogged branches start exploding
mutant branch knows what time it is
my frisian
she is going REALLY well compared to the others , the other just have too much nutes ad my buddy keeps topdressing them , so even though they look good, they grow sloooowww
she will get about twice as big as she is now, certainly once she will be put on the lawn
jesus man, beautiful pics and such well manicured plants! you are going to be up to your arm pits in bud soon enough i bet! are any of those reveg? so advice is to not top dress unless they show signs of needing it? can't wait to see more mate. thanks for sharing!
