This plant exploded once grabbing hold, my poor 22’x16’ GH has been taken over by 3 plants… 13’ tall in center

I’ve got a bunch inside going too, there’s a serious amount of potential here

I chopped the huge Volunteer, it was starting to show signs PM and was blocking other two plants in there; nearly a 5” diameter stem, wowzers definitely my largest to date

Interesting plant; Sour D type structure & leafs but calyx are very petite; this plant could end up being a powerful formula one champ, but it looks like she’ll finish here and only a couple spots rot so far on entire plant which with 95-99% humidity every night, crazy dew & daily temp swings of 20-30F I’m quite happy

Seeds forming within from my favorite stud Gambian

why r u playing around with a 20v dewalt... u need a chain saw for that lady...
Haha - I love me a good Sawzall - the blade I had on it admittedly small, too lazy to switch it out, the 20V DeWalt brushless series (many many tools) are excellent, I still have 20V batteries from over a decade ago that work as good as the brand new ones you can get now…. That said I’ve probably got a grand in different batteries for just the 20V, even the circular saw is impressive these days - I highly recommend (investing in all cordless power tools was money extremely well spent - (my mitre, tablesaw etc are still plugins :) ) but be careful of fakes especially off Amazon !!!

yep my buddy has a shitload of dewalt and Milwaukee cordless drills/saws... etc

i have home depot 18volt drill/hedge clippers/etc ...

my 18 works great, so 20volt will kick ass... nice grow by the way

Peeked into GH few mornings ago & it looked like someone trashed it; oh man the Sweet & Sour just got way too heavy for herself, no rain in there, she ripped herself apart…. After cutting off the broken arms clean; damn a few these branches surprised me with their weight! lost 5 arms in total 2 huge ones

Sweet & Sour D smokes very nice, very dominate Pine Funk, what’s left growing now is stinking up my entire area & surroundings… weather has turned to what normally it is this time year (Shit), lots seeds forming in GH & outdoor plants so letting them run thru end month, my gosh was last year just an unbelievable growing year for @here at least!

Inside rooms back in full swing, this one has 5 different Sweet & Sour D within, very much uniform & looking / smelling Sour, great smells

Been going through the fridge & freezers lately - Holy Shit - Millions of seeds and hundreds if not a thousand plus different cultivars many decades old lineages coming from old heads of the first online forums ever, Vibes etc…. Mostly NLD & Country focused but quite a few chunkers too…

Man somebody needs to get off their ass & make these more widely available before they store away into the dustbins of history like far too many have done before….. ;)

That big stem looks like it had a pathogen, I'm sure you notice the dark color inside after you sawed it down.
could be but I personally think it's burn marks from where the sawzall blade got stuck cutting through it due to difficult angle and blade bending / nearly braking - if that plant had a pathogen I'm fucking terrified what it would have done without one !!! maybe moved the greenhouse by lifting off the roof, that GH has filled cinder block concrete walls and is dug 5' into the ground - made more sturdy than most all homes foundations - haha - thanks for the thoughts, maybe you're right but I don't think so

Quite a bit of PM on the Sweet & Sour D, but very little rot, other plant in there 80’s Colombian x Gambian has no PM but a lot of rot, both are being left for seed production packed full by my favorite Gambian male… IME often seed formation & more so the blanks are where rot begins, actually same for where quality seeds form often to. I’ve wondered more than once if it’s a protective mechanism for the seed, the seeds within the rot most often tend to be nicely matured & perfectly healthy, but again I digress

This is the 80’s Colombian x Gambian

The weather has been cool / cold & extremely humid past couple weeks so I’m quite happy with how things are forming & maturing up considering

Peace Y’all thanks for everyone’s contributions
