1 plant per pot around 60 cubic feet.

I worded my question wrong. More curious if you will be selecting X % of the seedlings to get a bit pot based on desirable traits as of now. Or will all the confirmed females be getting a chance?

 

[mendo420]

I have a total # I need. I wish I had room for all the girls!
I'd love to plant the entire hill side. (Oh that would be the neighbor)

So far 49 have sexed female.
I will be selecting certain strains for sure. Like Mendo Dream, Mendo Kush and Mendo x Cheese.

I cant forget 5 THAI have sexed female!!
Others are testers from last year. Blueberry Diesel X notso Purple Diesel and notso Purple Diesel.

I'm keeping males this year. I have about 60 to pick from so far!

Last week I was given some seeds from ketama morocco. (Better late than never). Next season!

I just cracked some of my feminized seeds. Mendo Kush and Mendo Dream.

Then their are cuttings too.

 

[guest8905]

i wasnt trying to be critical i can just tell from your plastic that is the husky kind. If your into other stuff, they make stuff thats is much more translucent


anyway....good on ya on the solar, cool setup

nice plants too

keep it up mendo

 

[megayields]

Mendo can I ask a dumb question? I see you use what looks like T5's to supplement your lighting....1) Does that keep the pants in " veg" or just give them more light for a longer period of time? 2)or it simply lighting so you can work on it at night?

I'm sorry if ths is an obvious question but I am building my first " hoop" house here in N Cali and am interested in your setup.

 

[mark bammer]

Im no expert but im pretty sure hes trying keep them in veg since he put them outside they would try to flower so i think he turns the lights on so he can just trick them to stay awake and make them think there in veg.(long sentence hahaha) I do the same thing here in nor cal keeps the babies veggin so I can skip the reveg part and have beasts!!!!!

 

[m4n]

Yea I always.keep my.outdoor plants under t5s at night and remove them august 1st

 

[mark bammer]

m4n do you keep them on once it gets dark then switch them off once it gets sunny basically a 24 hour veg till start off the flowering month august

 

[m4n]

Yea i have them come on hour before sunset and leave them on until sunrise

 

[ekomsi]

[megayields]

They are just T8 Shop lights. I extend the photo-period just a few hours to keep in veg. They are seeds so they probably wont flip on me but last year I had some issues with some strains flliping. Those strains are gone.

lookin good man....i like how the spot is terraced. i gotta do the same to my property next year, and install some hoop houses with supp lighting.....not having supp lighting is really killing me right now...wish i could put my plants outdoors but they are stuck in a shitty veg room for now..

 

[mendo420]

If they are seed starts they are good to go!

 

[talktosamson]

The pics are all the seed starts.
I started about 200 seeds.
I'm doing mostly seeds and a few clones. running fewer strains this year.
So I have some BIG choices to make.
I'm looking for 5-7 strains may be less. A few spots are already taken.
Mendo Dream, Mendo Kush, Chem 4, Blue Dream.
So just looking for a few more. My friend raves about the sour bubble.

Seed line up:

Seeds:

Mendo Kush
Mendo Dream
Sour Bubble
Purple Diesel
Purple Chem

Testing last years crosses:

Stinky x Mendo
Stinky x Purple diesel
Bubba Kush x Mendo
Cheese x Purple Diesel
Cheese x Mendo
BlueBerry Diesel x Purple Diesel

I was blessed with some seeds from Thailand so I started some of those for breeding.
I'm looking for males this season. I'm going to keep some around for a while.

Clones:
OG
Cheese
Blue Dream
Chem4
Mendo Kush
Stinky Pinky

Its hard to pick strains when I love them all soooo much.
I cant wait to see what the crosses from last year produce.
Cheese crossed with anything sounds good.
BlueBerry Diesel X Purple Diesel cant wait to see that one. I made 100's of those seeds.

Love me some stinky pinky!! Do not know may people that grow it other than myself. here's mine from last year outside. Out of 48 plants you could smell the stinky over and above all others

 

[mendo420]

Here's the stinky pinky I have.

 

[warthog]

beautiful! what are the genetics?

 

[talktosamson]

Genetics are unknown, TH Seeds got the clone and they reversed it and made seeds. Mine came to me by way of a friend who worked out a pack. This was the biggest and most stinky
