Tagged up and looking forward to some white rhino crosses.

Not to hijack your thread, but I stopped by your forum and didn't see a spot to share random photos of your gear... So I figured I'd stop by and share it here: your Lemon thai/deep chunk x p98 bubba. Popped only one for a new med patient, and this is what came out.

Thanks for the great genes... Gonna do a big hunt of your bubba gear shortly (p98 s1, katsu x p98, and lvpk x p98) alongside a few packs of of CBG's peyote purple.

Hey @LouDog420 , thanks for posting that - it looks awesome! - very bubba in structure and colour.. how does she smell?

there is a thread for this variety in my forum a few pages down so please post it there as well if you can be bothered. There should be some amazing phenos in that 3-way cross !

Please keep us posted on the pheno hunt - my space is so limited that i can't run big numbers and i love to see all the plants grown out..

Had a smoke on the Chem Zhuzh bus that i took early, the smell atm is chem with a sweet musky incense funk from the bubba that comes through as strong as the chem atm.. it is VERY potent. not suitable for daytime which is when i smoked it lol. heavy stone but the sheer strength (and maybe freshness) of it got me buzzing a bit and the head has a clarity like bubba. This leans towards the bubba more than the 3 i grew in the little test grow. I'd love to do a big selection on the Zhuzhs it's a killer gene pool to recombine....
plants are coming down very soon i will take some last pics tomorrow.

Hi all, we are past the 8 week mark and these plants will get harvested in the next few days... one last picture dump. The budrot hasn't got much worse and i'm relieved about that . it actually looks like stem lesions which have caused bits to die back. Seen it on other plants before but never on cannabis.

My plan is to flower 9 plants in 11 litre pots. I will certainly be back to do 4 big plants again though... i reckon i could do some damage with 4 x Contra D in there run a bit richer than last time...
Also i am clearing out my loft atm and had to remove an old water tank.. and what's the first thing think about when i see something like that?? - plant containers ! i needed to cut it up anyway to get it through the loft hatch - so now i have a 100+ litre bed that is 78cm diameter (cab is 80 cm) to play with at some point ! lovely

Hi all, the dry weight of teh first run came to just over 8 ounces. Not bad but i think i can do better !
The 2 Contra D were a bit over 5 oz, the Chem Zhuzh was just over 1.5 oz and the BDB was just under 1.5 oz. Overall i estimate i probably lost about an ounce to the budrot which i regard as having got off fairly lightly.

The new plants (BlueDigiRhino and Gorilla Vs. Rhino) are all potted up into 3l pots- where i am planning to keep them until sexed. Both look healthy but the root growth on the Gorilla Vs Rhino was pretty astonishing !
Pics soon...

Nice crop VG. The bluedigirhino and rhino x gorilla bubble have got my attention. Look forward to seeing those grow out.

Hey @gizmo666 , yes the BDB is one of the most sweet smelling and tasting plants ive come across - it leaves a jammy/jelly like sweet coating on your mouth.
EDIT: and there's the hint of burnt rubber/chemmy smell - my brain doesn't seem to be able to compute that the same bud could have those two different smells.. so i just get the odd whiff of it as if its coming from somewhere else... very unusual.

Hey @skunkfunk thanks. They have all been topped now and seem to be responding ok to it.

Hi all, here is a few pics of my old-school White Rhino clone that was the mother of these two crosses. Flowered in a different cab)
It is seeded in the pics and at about 7 weeks...

(the seeds are more BlueDigiRhino, made with a BDB F3 male that i am progeny testing. There has already been a grow of the BDR started by @............. which was very promising but unfinished, and also he saw some male flowers on one plant but also had light leaks.. so inconclusive but i wanted to try this male just in case there really are intersex traits. dots unfinished grow here -

Hi all, just back after being away monday to friday - i was very brave and just watered the plants well before i left, rather than use capillary matting. They were ok !
They have responded well to the topping and were flipped to 12/12 today. a bit congested in there and hopefully they will show sex quickly so they can be thinned out and potted on. Quick shot of the i will get some individual shots of the two varieties on monday..

HI, here are some pics taken today. they have been under 12/12 for 3 days but not showing as yet... Both crosses seem vigorous and will start to stall if they don't get repotted soon.
Two by two. side and top shots.
