Thanks - sadly my big dog died a few months ago.

The grow is going very well - slow growth due to the weaker winter sun but all good. I have 6 male PCKs and 3 females - I would have preferred it the other way round but hey ho.. The 6 males are all big, vibrant beauties.

They are spending their nights out on the terrace while the females are brought in and put under an LED at night - they will be switched to 12/12 in the new year.

The 2 Bangi Haze fems are also doing fine and will be switched at the same time as the PCKs.

Seed stock update - I've lost count of how many times I've said I wouldn't buy more seeds! The people at ACE keep tempting me with special offers

Ghana regs - Cannabiogen
The Church fems - Green House
Terpenado regs - Bodhi
Sweet Skunk x Jack regs - Chimera
Nepal Mist regs - ACE
Thai regs - ACE
Thai x Panama fems - ACE
PCK x A5Haze regs - ACE
a few other single freebies

My rough plan for 2023 is to start the Nepal Mist on the 1st of Jan for a reproduction grow - they will be joined by some fem guest stars. The summer/autumn grow will be the Thai and the Thai x Panama and that will bring me back to another winter grow.

I’ve got Ace’s Thai x Panama just put in the flower tent this week, looking forward to seeing what they bring. Their Panama x OT1 Haze is fantastic

Good luck with them! I'm still enjoying the last of my Panama Haze - I've also been appreciating the indicas and hybrids featured in this thread.

The six PCK males surrounding one of the females - they are an impressive bunch! I need to start reading up on male selection!

I'm enjoying clone free growing and looking forward to my planned grows - the 3 female PCKs don't have any branches big enough to clone anyway.

I decided to make an early start to 2023 - I germinated 3 The Church fems. It's a poly hybrid with Erdbeer, Northern Lights and Super Skunk. I chose them because they are reputedly resistant to PM.

The plan is to save some PCK pollen and make seeds for next winter's grow. I'm thinking of doing the A5Haze x PCK, Bangi Haze x PCK and The Church x PCK next winter.

The five females (2 bangi haze on the left and the 3 PCKs) getting the last of the sun. They get direct sunlight from 10.00 to 17.30 at the moment but it's winter sun. They have been growing for about 3 months now but are still quite small.

The males have started dropping pollen - which I am collecting in paper envelopes.

looking great timbo . masterful photography as usual. i have 5 of the malawi x panama left . they were ace freebies. That pheno i should of kept. how did the one flowered naturally do on the terrace?

Cheers Shiva - it was excellent and lasted over a year. Very racy, sometimes scary! The strongest Malawi x PCK has similar effects. According to dubi their Malawi is susceptible to PM so I'm going to steer clear for the moment but I may try them again in the future once I have my anti PM protocols sorted out.

 

[shiva82]

no worries. i have them set aside. if you ever want them, you can have them.

i found it tasted good and stimulated me to do more , and i found it great for distance hiking. one joint before a 20 mile hike lasted well and kept me buzzed. I have an ex marine friend with ptsd that really enjoyed that weed for the same reason. long lasting but stimulating and tasted pleasant. spicy citrus serotonin regulator

Last day of the year and first night of 12/12 for the females - the males are giving up their pollen and I'm keeping it in separate paper envelops in a jar of silica gel.

I'm down to 4 males - 2 greens and 2 purples, some differences in structure as well.

 

[El Timbo]

And the 3 girls on their final long day... they are showing no signs of auto flowering.

 

[El Timbo]

And the 2 Bangi Haze on their first morning of 12/12. They are pretty much equal in height but have very different structures.

 

[El Timbo]

The PCK males have been chopped - all of them have hollow stems. I will dry and smoke test their flowers to see if there is an especially strong one but I will probably mix the pollen to pollinate the PCK females.

The 3 Church fems are doing fine. I've never grown anything by Greenhouse before.
