Organic seed run

blancorasta

hey all,

i started a ten pack of querkle, 9 germed and broke soil, two failed to break out of their shell. i also germed 1 out of six seeds i found in my favorite chemdog double d pheno (R.I.P.). out of seven Querkle i ended up with three females.

grown in five gallons of FFOF soil under a 1K digital next gen ballast, in a sealed flower room with a 12,000 btu portable dual hose A/C, and Co2 at 1600ppm off and on due to tank running out. topdress of PSG during veg, watered with PUR filtered water, hygrozyme and the occasional mollases. during bloom i topdressed with some sol po mag, bone meal, and earth worm casting; except the CDD x SDL. i also used some Jam Bat Guano later

i vegged until preflower which took almost 50 days, topping twice once after 6-8 nodes and then imediately again on the two new tops. creating about 6 tops per plant. took clones off the lower branches and ushered them into bloom along with the Chemdd seed; which i had hoped was a selfed seed but i figured out a lil while into bloom, some herm pollen from a strawberry dlite must have violated my lady.

the first couple weeks were hot as i didnt have the A/C hooked up and i over nuted them by feeding with some humboldt nutrients organic bliss line, when the 5 gallons of FFOF where hot enough for a while. the CDD x SDL took it real bad turned yellow and didnt really start flowering, more less put on resin. i thought it might be deficient at first and almost made it worse then began using just filtered water. it has taken nearly 4 weeks but it is finally coming out of it. the querkles were not as badly effected by it except for the #3 the space queen dom sativa leaning pheno which yellowed a bit and hasnt quite had the resin production of the other two indica dom querkles.

i'll up dating with some pics in a couple a hours,

peace

OH YEAH! Flowering started on 7/3/10 i forgot to include that LOL.

ok here are some pics. some were taken earlier while the HPS was on, the others were taken with a cfl on, the 1k off, and the camera in manual mode.

which pics are better, HPS or CFL? let me know

Querkle #3 Space Queen dominant, sativa leaning phenotype. on 8/24/10


and a cola


cola shots under CFL




this pheno grows tall and fast, has a good stretch and doesnt shade itself much leaving a very open canopy. it has a nice sour slightly rotten fruit smell, but i dont know if i over ferted it, its to dry, or it has been to close to the light but its not very resinous except for some of the lowest little popcorn stuff, i moved it back away from the light we'll see if that helps. it looks like it needs at least 4 - 5 more weeks

Querkle #2 Urkle dominant, indica leaning phenotype. on 8/24/10


And some CFL cola shots



this pheno veggitates very slow and has a minimal stretch. its smell is GRAPE but not sweet and skunky like GDP or urkle, more rich and earthy with an afghani undertone, its pretty complex but im sure its not done changing yet. dense solid nugs but not overly dense. very frosty and look very tempting. this plant did suffer a bit from the overfert/heat and was stunted like a week. so even though its been 7 weeks im counting it at 6 not even 50% brown hairs yet so the trichs arent even worth peepin yet.

Querkle #5 most Urkle dominant, indica leaning phenotype. on 8/24/10

Two of the tops on this plant



And a CFL shot


this one smells AMAAAAZIINGG! Sweet, GRAPE, lightly skunky, dank, sour floral. the smell reminds me of my Ivory cut, which was so unique to me and tastes just like it smells, with an added GRAPE note which is the best possible combo imaginable IMO.
the buds are dense and frosty, again not to dense. amazing looking buds, my camera does not do any justice to this stuff.
this and #2 should need alteast 2 - maybe 3 more weeks to finish.:dance013::dance013:

Chemdog Double D x Strawberry D-Lite
this plant is soooo nute sensitive just like the SDL. i over ferted and stunted it so bad it took about 4 weeks to pull out. as a consequence it didnt bud, the leaves turned yellow, and nearly died, while coming back around it started flowering but not really making any resin. it recently started making a lil resin but, this girl is so horny now. she wont stop putting on fresh pistils and her current pistils stay white and erect for way longer than normal. they look slighty "re-vegged" but not, i think its just overloaded on nutes and is having like a hormonal surge lol IDK?
im gonna let it ride and see if it can pull out of the funk, i have clones of everything and ill run it one more time and do it right before i give it the axe or up for adoption.

here are some pics on 8/24/10



And in CFL



i dont know what to think of this one, i f'd it up so its not realy fair to blame the plant and its got pretty solid gene's so we'll see.
no real smell, structure is decent and should yield accordingly (as far as size atleast, if doesnt start packing on resin realy quick it wont weigh shit).

alright let me know what y'all think.

which pics are better?

a couple of days ago i entered the bud room and the Q#2 was completely toppled over and on the floor two of the V's had split and forced me to harvest one of the cola branches. i supported everything the best i could and we're movin on.

I was going to be moving the plants out of the rooms to take pics but since they're being floppy bitches. that will have to wait till harvest as not to risk any further damage. Sorry no pics:cry:

it's been 10 WEEKS FLOWERING but i did stunt their development for the first few weeks so i would count them at week 8

Q#5 has began its flush, i watered with a tiny bit molasses yesterday. most all calyx's are swollen, so it should be done in a week or so which is right were i had figured. I'll probably take #2 with it

Q#3 still has majority white hairs, not a whole whole lot of frost and looks like it still might be like 4-5 weeks for that one. and after #2 and #5 are ready ill likely move this and the CDD xSDL outside to finish.

CDD xSDL is starting to put on some frost but it is stils stackin calyx's and her hairs are alive forever. the resin is really flowing but not really much to speak of as far as smell goes. like i said she'll go outside in a week or two

HARVEST!

HARVEST!

so i pulled #2 and #5 yesterday 9/12
and i put Querkle #3 and CDD x SDL outside to finish up

Querkle #5








it definitely posesses the signature purple urkel/GDP smell with some added sweetness and complexity

the smell is a musky sweet and sour floral perfume with a skunky grape background.
I've smoke some premature, barely dry nugs from the cola that broke off a couple weeks ago and it was amazing.... could have been better but still very awesome for what it was.
the taste was interesting, similar to the smell but it had very unique note that is hard to place, maybe a touch of sweet lime or something.

the matured bud with a proper cure should be top shelf, that said i could have done her alot better and i will be running each individual again right away.


ill likely update with pics of the Q#2 tomorrow.

LOL i just do what i can with the little resources available to me. i think i could do alot more with just a rebel t2i. my outdoor pics i just updated are alot better imo, the link is in my sig check it out.
i enjoyed photo class in high school and i was pretty good for a first year student of photography but that was using fully manual cameras with interchangable lenses, where as this cam only has 3 aperture settings and no manual focus. and its been awhile since that class and since ive used a manual camera, so ive been beating off some rust.

thanks,

wow looking very nice, I have a querkle seed to pop..it's nice to see the different phenos thanks.

thanks bro, its pretty stable from what i can tell. maybe three phenos one obviously sat dom my #3, a 50/50 i have a male #4 of this pheno, and the indica purple urkle dom pheno #2 and #5. then each pheno has its own individuals, some people give querkle a bad rap because alot of growers (around here atleast) grow from clones past on from friends and such. and there are clubs and likely individuals passing around bad cut of improperly selected pheno's, they select the sat dom cause they yeild more or something when people choose this strain for the purple urkle indica dominant traits grape flavor purple color ect. so many people who dont buy atleast a ten pack and do their own selections are likely not going to get exactly what thier looking for.

the verdict isnt in for sure yet as im going to run them all again but #5 is the only one i really like and its only a keeper by the skin of its teeth really as i have a special pheno of another variety that is very similar to the #5 just with out any grape, but better.... i think...maybe... i havent smoke any matured and cured querkle yet! that said i plan on making some f2's isolating each male crossing them to each female and do some more searching. or i may get a purple urkle cut from a friend and try my own hand at a hybrid... who knows.

Querkle #2 bud shots before harvets




the smell is acrid and pungent kinda rotten, similar to an afghani that has the berry undertone but its more grape than berry. when i rub the resin it has a overtone that is sharp, stinging, sour poopy smell, that fades to the typical sweet afghan smell.

ive smoked some premature barley even dry stuff from a cola that broke off, it didnt taste or smell great but it looked good and did the trick.

its almost ready for the jar along with #5.

ill try and get an update on #3 and some dry shots of these two in a little while.

peace

EDIT: shit i did it again LOL

lookin great brutha i too am runnin a couple of querkles atm. I'm definitely hoping i got the urkle dom. cut they are very stout and bushy but veggin under the 1kw for 34 days they've only grown from 1.5-2"(smallest clones i've seen with roots), to 12-14" tall but very bushy ... also i veg under 24 hrs. light, idk if it affects height but i believe it does but i've got about 30+ budsites on each... the NYCD that i got only 23 days ago is at least 20" with the same amount of budsites. Anyways, im definitely lookin forward to the final report!!!
