Sticky Grows

Such gorgeous grows dude!! I don’t know how you manage to work it all out. I’ve been trying to catch up on your other grows since I’ve got nothing really special growing right now. Seeing your work always reminds me of how I missed the Alpine 1.0 but got it into the right hands!!! I’d be sitting here analyzing my options while you’re busy working it!!!

Another stellar show.

🔥😍
The wife didn't think it was a good grow when she saw the seeds :p
Catch up? I don't know what you're talking about, I saw your outstanding outdoor summer grows bud ;)
The Alpine is good but I'm looking for finished strains now :)

I bought some Auto Pots to try out with straight coco
It doesn't really work as intended with the Canna Coco I use but it gives me an idea of what to expect. I think I needed a hydroton base
I found the best way to use the Autopot system with this medium is to lift the pots every day and when they get very dry I turn the tap on with only enough mix in the res to water them all once. They seem to love being watered from the bottom like this, they started growing at a huge rate just recently

I only had 3 plants ready to go, these were tiny a week and a half ago. 1200x1200 tent

This is an old strain called Golfball

The back one is a local mystery strain which I suspect is generations old and has the same acrid aroma as some Nevil's Haze I grew
She needs different feeding than the other 2 but I can only feed at one strength with this central system

Your plants are kickng ass using bottom feeding. I noticed in the old finished pots after the plant was removed the root mass was very dense in the bottom and around the edge of the pot. So I bottom water with 1/3 of feed and let it suck up from the bottom and top feed with the rest until discharge.

Thanks for the input Creeper (y) I have an idea now. I'm going to set up a grow of 4 plants with about 10L pots of straight coco with oversize saucers and once they've taken root properly I'll let them dry to wilt and work out how much water to just barely make the top moist then bottom feed/water 80% just before wilt each time, which is basically what I'm doing now and it works a treat :)
I have a similar new system in the pipeline working with an electrical engineer that's top secret :listen2: :p

Firstly I'll update the Autopot grow, coming along wonderfully! I'm just watering manually based on the pot that dries the fastest which is every 2-3 days. I trimmed all the lower branches yesterday and took a heap of smaller buds off for the compost

There's clones ready for a full run of HGKush and Golfball too but I think the HGK is still the go to!
Even though the one HGK hasn't got roots yet the top is healthy and I'm 99% sure it will root, seen it before and it just takes a while longer

Left to right in the clone tent
Left rear is a couple of Salvia plants (just because I found some)
Left front is the Mystery #1
Next row in the small pots are the 5 male survivors
Right rear are Stoney's Alpine 1.0 Hz (Frosty Boy and Apricot Girl)
The small stunted plant is a fem of some kind for growing as a smoke test
Then the GBall and HGKush mothers at the front

Hey @FTL how's things?
I'm trying to keep all THH stuff in the other thread but :)
To answer your question there won't be any serious testing until the proper bud grow but the word edgy and quite strong for what it is has been tossed around. I stripped the seed using a hair comb so the trichs got pretty busted up, as you can imagine

Here's a few pics for your viewing pleasure

A few closeups of the young mystery plant at the back
Red petioles and square frosty stems with a strong NHz aroma
Perhaps a BLD x NHz??

Looking awesome sticky…. That mystery plant looks tasty …. Reminds me of Jack for some reason

What sort of aromas do you get off the finished flower?
How many weeks does it take?

Did the fam enjoy that “edginess”?
Hope it doesn’t turn your household into a haze thread 🤪

Smells just like the No.1 NHz fem I got from Green House Seeds. Strong burnt hair/rubber ash, acrid!

The daughter doesn't like that feeling but the Mrs loves it. I gave her a bit of 2yr+ KA5H cob I had hidden and she rolled a fatty this morning and a few puffs kept her super high for over 3 hrs, then she had a nap!! She's never been impressed with anything I've given her before :p

This is about 1oz of super sticky and sour, fermented funk!

Nah, never tried chewing it. I had a smoke of it last year or earlier and it kicked my ass! I was totally wasted and seeing images and unsure if I was even talking or thinking words! Then I went back to the house for a lie down while I could still get there :LOL:
I smoke when I have a bourbon some weekends but nothing hits me like that shit :p
