I've been watching this grow, looks good frank!
I found a pretty decent plant from the ES seeds I got, finishes in fifty days and more of what I would call a hash plant, and, it was a mutant trifoliate. good luck

WHAT....LOL...seriously...you had one that finished in 50 DAYS???!!! That is crazy. I was talking to someone else they were saying easy 10wk on the phenos they had.

Now it really will be a crazy pheno search....

Very nice! How'd she smell? I notice my one that was tri really doesn't have much of a smell. A very, very slight tart smell...maybe lime-ish...but almost non-existent. Perhaps a bit of a odd saw dust smell that isn't really offensive but kinda seems to promise more to come...so I don't know... I love the vigor of the tri. I just tied her down to spread her out a bit. I'm hoping she is a good as pictured there...some really nice appeal there. How's she smoke???

I have it pretty well dialed in, this last round it had the most smell than past. Limey would be a great way to describe it, but faint to non-existent is better.
Not like that's a bad thing. Ha! mine does well topped, cuz she will stretch into flower like crazy! the sour d comes through on that side.
the smoke is "smooth and expansive" from a friend here on IC. pretty strong too. I hope you find something worth burning.

Update....

Update....

I HATE TO SAY THIS.

But since having moved, after taking just a bit over a year off...I really can not seem to get myself back into a proper rhythm of care. My plants and my rooms and clones and now SEEDS are suffering the consequences of my negligence...

Either 3 things have caused this:

1. they soaked too long, and drowned before ever being planted.

2. they dried out too much and cooked in the soil

3. they were over watered and suffocated

I say this only because...the final result on this last batch of seeds sprouted SUCKED...I know this is my fault. NOT THE FAULT OF THE SEEDS. Others have sprouted these beans without problem.

Totals:

2 of 6 BKGK -this one really hurts me in the inner most corners of my soul

1 of 5 PBT - wft?? these had EXCELLENT tap roots.

7 of 8 K-rom -perfect considering I knew one was smashed.

4 of 4 Her x DC

3 of 5 Mongruls - had four, but one got a really weak stem and fell over on itself...then shriveled up....it has been removed.

Honestly, I have NEVER had such bad results with seeds. I need to step my game up a bit and give more care and attention to these efforts...

whats up dank.frank!!

Just need to build up your schedule to your former care taking.is all. if need be, go a bit smaller, make things easier to manage until your feeling the grove again brotha!

I get exactly the same way after a crop comes in...routine changes, and it's always slow to get back into it...

my motivation is my jars.. when they are empty.... my ass in in gear immediately!!!lol

It is not due to a lack of understanding....just like I said...a lack of CARE due to circumstances...things happen. I know on each of every seed that did not sprout what was a factor...it wouldn't be so frustrating if I could be blind to the fact that ultimately I was at fault....

Situation is improving...I probably jumped the gun on sprouting so many seeds...could have waited a week and things would have been completely different. But in the end...you just learn from it...don't do the same thing twice. Like I said...NEVER have I had a seed run end so poorly. This is a first. But there is always a first for everything...and I am finding that out the hard way in a most instances this time around.

I've never done this hobby with out the aide of a CHHC-1...it really gives me a HUGE appreciation for some of the growers on here that do so much better with less. Gotta walk a mile in those shoes....

Good to hear Frank!:ying:
I always appreciate it when folks show the good and the bad.
It shows character and its real. Some folks only let you see their best moments ya know. Some times we have to pull the sleeves up a bit more and carry on.
So many seeds to pop anyway!:blowbubbles:

I hear ya RM!! If all we ever post is our achievement how then is this site going to be a resource and a useful tool for others to learn. Sometimes there has to be a what not to do thread...by example...hahahaha...I'm not always in this position...so, it is kinda humbling a bit....lol.

I appreciate your understanding RM....honestly!

Seriously...a "green-thumb" is earned...and getting there is not always a cake walk. People need to realize that...
