Test thread ~ Metro from TK Beans

This is a cross of Trainwreck and TRC's Blue13 done by Texas Kid





This should be a hot cross ya'll so stay tuned. I just dropped the beans tonight.

I soaked the Rapid rooter plugs with 5 mils/gallon of liquid karma at a pH of 6.3. 10 seeds were placed in the plugs and placed under a humidity dome. A seedling mat with the thermostat set at 80 degrees helps germination. The tray and dome were placed under fluro's.

I will be updating this thead with pictures at least once a week, but I will be in and out daily to answer questions if needed. This grow is going to be a little different then what you have seen out of test grows in the past. I have very limited space, so growing seedlings out to maturity and then flowering is not an option. So this test is going to be broken down into three sections, veg, clone, then bloom. The veg side will run from 4-6 weeks (until they are sexually mature). At that point I will take cuttings of all the plants and then send the corresponding cuttings on to the flower room to test. This will take a few weeks longer than normal. But it will also alow for clonability testing. (is that a word?)

Plants will be grown in soil using only the finest organic nutrients and addatives. Pure Blend Pro will be the main source of food. I will suppliment with LK/TopMax, Budswell, EJ Catalyst, and Bio-Bloom. I also innoculate with beneficials including Sub-Culture and myccorhizae to keep the root zone alive and well. Plants will be flowered at 100 watts per square foot. :yoinks:

Hopefully TK can drop in from time to time to share his knowledge with us. This is going to be a fun thread guys so lets get to growin :) See ya around :wave:

Rumor has it that Metro is some serious good smoke.... :lurk:

The smell is your good ol' fashioned "DANK" smell.. whatever pheno I smoked was great. Perfect balance between TW's one-hit-wonder and Blueberry's euforic/well-balanced high to ride things off... very well-rounded smoke that Metro was. I, too, am sittin' on these beans and CANNNNNNNNNNNNOT wait to pop 'em. I will be exclusively testing and working with these in the near future.

Here's to a fine show, wonderful grow and good bros! :wave:

I liked all three of the phenos I found. All were killer but there is one in there that kicks the baseball bat colas and sticky as hell.

The Metro

I'm alone
Sitting with my empty glass
My four walls
Follow me through my past
I was on a Paris train
I emerged in London rain
And you were waiting there
Swimming through apologies I remember searching for the perfect words
I was hoping you might change your mind
I remember a soldier sleeping next to me
Riding on the metroYou wore white
Smiling as you took my hand
So removed
We spoke of wintertime in France
Minutes passed with shallow words
Years have passed and still I hurt oh
I can see you now
Smiling as I pulled away I remember a letter
wrinkled in my hand
I love you always filled my eyes
I remember the night we walked along the Seine
Riding on the metro I remember a feeling coming over me
The soldier turned then looked away
I remember hating you for loving me
Riding on the metroI'm alone
Sitting with my broken glass
My four walls
Follow me through my past
I was on a Paris train
I emerged in London rain
And you were waiting there
Swimming through apologies
(Sorry)I remember searching for the perfect words
I was hoping you might change your mind
I remember a soldier sleeping next to me
Riding on the metro

Looks like a great first start to seeing some of TK's work come to life / I am sure TK has done his homework and you lucky fellows should see a nice spring harvest / blessings on a strong finish.

Good well conceived name TK -
