almost another week i might as well update.
these pics a couple days old but you ain't missin shit.
the g13-c didn't make it, nothing but a couple of cotyledons i just killed it, it sprouted some roots but with no leaves up top no need for the roots. still dunno why that guy died, but im gonna go with genetics as the rest of em are fine except g13-b which is all mutant looking, and g13-c which never sprouted any real leaves.
everyone else is fine, transplanted to bigger pots, 12-16 oz beer cups. i left one in the coco pots to see if the roots will grow through... well i know they will grow through but i dunno how fast so thats where that comes in. on to the tits...

G13-a, and G13-b (the mutant)

mexican bagseed a on the left (white cup) i nicknamed moldy, and the one on the right (mexican bagseed b) in the red cup i call goldy.

hempy plants. and soil.

group shot.

picture.php

the soil one that was in flower previous grow, aka the only survivor, going through reveg and back into flower mode now with the rest.
picture.php

i tried to take em out the cab but it was too cramped and too close for flash, all i ended up with was a bunch of bright blurry pics.

as you can see they certainly took off in 2 weeks and now i need to prune those branches all the way back so they can grow this big again before the flower stretch is over... fun times.

forgot what week i was on and had to reread my posts and study calendar.

WEEK 3 Ending -> Beginning WEEK 4


lots of growth in the last week, im going to transplant into final containers next week and put them in the flower box. it will be a total of like 5 weeks veg, i count the first weeks of flower as part of veg, i don't consider flowering started till i see some pubes, plus they are still in veg technically till they reach sexual maturity, even on 12/12 from seed takes at least 4 weeks.
picture.php

G13-A
picture.php

G13-B
picture.php

gnat i found sitting on top of G13-B fucking dead. im wondering if thats the same gnat i saw flying around my tv last night. i wonder if theres something in this plant that is poison to gnats...wouldnt that be awesome?

what can i say, g13 plants are doing well, staying short, i hope they don't explode too much in flower, its always the short ones that get all stretchy in flower.
picture.php

SSK-A
picture.php

SSK-B
I moved the SSK-A into the flower room yesterday, spent its first night in the dark. with the size of the container and the size of the plant it was too close to the bulbs rather than train or top im going to let this one go like this and by 2 weeks hopefully i will have an idea of how these plants will stretch. they all seem pretty much indica so far with goldy showing some hybrid action leaning sativa, but still indica enough to be throwing side branches this early. not as much as the other plants which all seem mostly if not 100% indica. circa 94' looks the most indi besides the g13's.
picture.php

circa 94'

circa 94' getting bushy early on, and so short even shorter than the g13 which is 100% indica. im surprised. ill have to take em out the box and into my "studio" for some profile shots later in the week. nodes are like less than half an inch apart. i pinched a couple of the nodes the other day to make sure it doesnt stretch too much. i pinched the nodes on all of em now started last week, seems to help the nodes stay shorter when they start getting stretchy.
picture.php

moldy
picture.php

goldy
moldy and goldy, the 2 random mexican bagseeds, i posted a pic of the nug goldy came out of, some mexican outdoor looks like some highland oaxaca shit. Moldy came from some similar smelling mexican but the shit looked really dark like it was moldy or something, almost black.
goldy looks more sativa, but moldy looks like its mostly indica.

so far all the plants are staying pretty short with the exception of SSK-A, and G13-A, and Goldy. im expecting these to be my males, but im hoping for all girls. maybe one of the G13 can be a male so i can make seeds, or rather even circa 94'.

ill try and take some side pictures this week. see ya's next time.

alright, im back 2 weeks later.

WEEK 5 End --> Beg WEEK 6

as i said last time i transplanted them all into their final pots in week 5 and they have been growing into their new homes for a week.

the SSK a and b are in there the longest i threw em in on week 4 and the rest went in on week 5.
SSK-A is looking to be a hermie, a true hermie like theres one female part and one male part for each node. it didn't starts male and go female, or female then male. from the first sign of sex there was one male flower and one female flower. sucks. this one was looking to be an indica pheno and fast too. the SSK-B while looking short and stunted is almost the exact replica of the original mom. pure sativa nightmare takes a long time to flower and stretches like the last name was armstrong.
picture.php

SSK-A
picture.php

SSK-B
picture.php

both together side by side. ssk-a on left, ssk-b on right.


G13's are doing well, had some nute burn issues in the week leading up to the transplant. all the plants got rootbound and also got quite close to the bulbs in the veg box. another reason for going to flower. so you will see damaged leaves but not to worry thats all 2 weeks old damage.
picture.php

picture.php

G13-A unsexed so far.
picture.php

G13-B Looks to be male so far, its inbred and back crossed and whatnot so i expect this will be a true male. if so i will use it to cross the other g13 for more seeds and possibly cross it with the lowland oaxaca again since these last SSK seeds look prone to hermie.
picture.php

picture.php

group shots

Next we got the random Mexicans i have named moldy and goldy. coming along quite well, the best of the bunch almost in terms of just health and vigor.
one looks mostly indica, the other looks mostly sativa, but hybrids clearly.

picture.php

picture.php

moldy, got indica leaves and some decent branching.

picture.php

picture.php

goldy, more sativa leaves and initially looked identical to SSK-B but after the roots started getting down out of that coco pot i planted it in the branches came on.

lastly but not leastly we have Circa 94' the old school seed project. this one got it the worst with the nuteburn and pH being out of wack when they got rootbound in those solo cups. but it has since recovered and aside from those ugly looking leaves which i have begun plucking off one by one (gonna try defoliation with this one) alls well.

picture.php

picture.php

Circa 94' not sure yet but i think i see the beginnings of male flowers.

im crossing my fingers for girls but so far its looking all bad, all bad.

picture.php

group shots of the cabinet. the one on the left is the last lowland oaxaca. i cut the rest they just weren't growing as well as this one.

what a difference a watering makes, watered em last night first time since i took that group shot.
i guess water is the driving factor with growth i think ill water more often rather than waiting for the pots to get completely bone dry. lotta stretching in 12 hours. i look in the cab today and moldy & goldy are almost touching the bulb. the g13-s are starting to stretch as well, the ssk and circa 94 we're already into stretching but the circa94 is stretching about the least behind ssk-b which doesnt seem to have even started flowering just like the original mom.

i found some sexes.

g13-a = female
g13-b = male
ssk-a = dunno yet, started off throwing male preflowers but by the time the male preflowers had grown to be real flowers it was also throwing pistils. way more pistils than balls. i plucked the balls and topped it as the balls showed at a spot where the plant had received some recent stress. when the flowers come back we will be able to tell for certain if its a true hermie of just a finicky female prone to hermying under stress.
ssk-b = no sex yet, most likely gonna be a girl like the mom.
moldy = male, true male. i was hoping for a girl but what a strong male, i like the branching i will cross to the juanita (lowland oaxaca) bring those branches back to reality.
goldy = looks to be a girl so far, a strong one almost structurally identical to moldy but with more sativa leaves...those leaves are getting huge.
circa94' = no sex yet, not even a hint of sexing, i predict a girl. i really hope so. fast growing, short, bushy, and if its a girl.

end week 6 -> middle week 7 really from seed. i will count this as DAY ONE FLOWER since they all have show sex except circa 94'

no pics this weeks, i lost my camera and have yet to get a new one.

everything is going great. all plants are health. flowering stretch is almost over. i wish i could show you pictures cuz you wont believe what im telling you next.

the G13 i got one boy and one girl. g13-a is the girl, the bigger one... initially anyway. g13-b is male. g13a not really that stretchy i topped it and am currently cloning it, the g13b in the meanwhile decided to double in size in one night, no joke. that little runty ass plant is now close to 2 feet tall. well it wasn't completely overnight, i left for 2 days on business. when i come back its hit the top of the ceiling bent over and grown 4 more inches past the top height limit.

moldy and goldy. moldy is also a male, goldy is my girl. goldy had taken off to the top of the cab also, not really stretching though just growing, i had to top and those are my clones now. this one is looking to be a similar grower to an old mexican sativa i had called lois. it just grew one long cola no branching. moldy is growing similar but staying really short. i mean the nodes on that one are so close even after the stretch, im definitely gonna use some of that pollen. maybe cross it to the g13 so that they don't stretch so much in flower.

the rest are girls. yep even ssk-1 which i said was a hermy.

i topped SSk1 a couple weeks back when i noticed it looked hermy, and the male parts only appeared on a couple of nodes. so far all the new growth has just been pistils so i assume it was the stress introduced at the begining of flower that stressed it, and now we're ok again. SSk2 the tall lanky one finally showed sex the other day, it is a girl. tall lanky slow to sex sounds a lot like the mom.
picture.php

the one on the right that says florida bagseed is the original mom the kush bagseed is the dad. the mom was on week 5 of 12/12 from seed.
picture.php

here we are 5 weeks later after 5 whole weeks of flowering. looks like any other plant at week 1 of flower. i hope the second part of flowering is better than what the mom was doing.

lastly but not leastly we have Circa 94' my old school seed i popped from 1994 or thereabouts, still no sex after... roughly 2 and a half weeks of 12/12 ill have to check my notes real quick...2 weeks and one day later still no sex. took ssk#2 3 and a half weeks to show... which is actually better then the original mom, but slow for this plant which looks like mostly indica. like 0 stretch i kid you not. i would definitely cross this one but its not sexing.

i had a thought the other day, what if it never sexes? a perpetual veg plant. i could get rich selling clones of an ornamental marijuana plant that doesn't flower and is thus useless as a drug plant, and should be legal.

and finally the original clone of the original mom lowland oaxaca sativa which i have in a all perlite hempy bucket. stretch stopped around the time i put the rest into flower 2 weeks ago and it is coming along nicely. the low nitrogen routine this time around seems to have eliminated all of the post flowering stretch.
picture.php

this is the original underwatered and spider mited up for a photoshoot. super stretched even 13 weeks after starting 12/12 from seed. still stretching in that shot. too much nitrogen.

this time around though its the all bud phenow :D

till next time, hopefully ill have some pics. new pics not old pics.

in the meantime look at my week 6 update and imagine all the plants are topped and beginning to put on flowers.

update
lets see...Middle of Week 8 from seed like week 2 since flowers.

the circa 94' turned out to be a male, after all this goddamn time waiting for it to show it turns into a male. i think maybe because i took all the other males out it chose to go to the balls side.

the SSK#1/A was hermy, then went back female then i left town the pots got dry it was hot i imagine, and back to throwing nanners, so he's out of there.

left in the cab are.

Juanita, seen in the pics above this post. Girl
G13-A Girl
Goldy Girl
and SSK#2/B Girl

i will be dusting g13, goldy, and juanita with g13 pollen for seeds, just a branch or two at the bottom.

juanita has started packing on the weight and already looks like it will top the last clone in weight, i think it has a lot to do with the hempy system.
the g13 has started to stretch a lot, maybe it was because i couldnt attend to it for a few days and it got stressed out. its stinky too, i gotta put my carbon filter on.
goldy stretched a ton all the way to the ceiling, too late to do more topping without setting it back a couple of weeks so i will try suer cropping and or just letting it go. those goddamn lower branches stretch too much the lowest goddamn node has stretched over the top node.

anyway i hope to get a camera soon and hopefully pics this week.

2 weeks since the last one showed flowers, so this will be the beginning of week 3 flower.

hmm what can i reports...nothing much really. everything is growing and fine. i got left from the seeds i popped, goldy(mexican bagseed), ssk#2(indica male x juanita) and g13-a , and from clone juanita, (lowland oaxaca).

i took clones from some of my best plants and they have all sprouted except the 2 clones i took from the lowest branched on the g13-a they have yet to root because i let them get too dry one day then i overwatered and that just caused the stem to dry up. i pulled em up, snipped the dead part of the stem and buried em again. will know if they took in a week, if not i still have a mom. the other clones i took were goldy, all of those rooted fine and fast, the fastest of all. and i also took clones of circa'94 before it turned to a male. i wish i had documented these clones for that help with cloning thread. it was super cakey, i cut the clones and put them in a tray of dirt watered and left. i left town for a week and came back to rooted clones, minus 3 that died. well one died, the other 2 i just told you about and might still make it.

i also have one more clone that i didn't label and i used a different pot for.

what else...oh yeah you want pics. i only got a couple cuz i don't have photoshop on this computer yet ill have to upload the huge version of the pics. gimme a second.

picture.php

my males, the ones left, i already took pollen from the g13 and chopped him down. these 2 are circa 94' slowest flowering goddamn male plant ever, and the hermy SSK#1. i was thinking i will let it open pollinate my cab so i can get some variety into the mix and plant out some mystery mix next year. but then i was like naaah. i pollinated everything with g13 already and i don't want a mega mystery mix.

so imma just keep it on the windowsill and hopefully it will pollinate itself so i can see if hermy seeds produce more hermies or fems like someone said once a long time ago somewhere i can't remember.

picture.php

SSK#2 on the left, growing just as tall and slowly as the mom, juanita coming up in the next pic or if you scroll up, that bushy sick looking plant up there ^^^

on the right we have goldy, i chopped the shit out of her as she got way too tall, i stunted her a bit by also removing every large fan leaf, they were really too big, really, not much surface area, but the leaf stems were like 6+ inches long. this plant is definitely made for outdoors.

picture.php

Juanita, the mother of that one up there ^^^ right above this picture. on the left... that one. this one is like...fuck i don't even remember...its been flowering as long as these have been alive and then some...these are like week 9 or 10 from seed so this is at least 9 weeks of flower. got like another 8 weeks or so left.

picture.php

g13-a the girl. nothing to report, topped once, trimmed the lowest couple of nodes. coming along...

picture.php

group shot.

and finially, the clones. in the tray from left row to right row.
g13a/circa94/goldy.
in the cups from top to bottom, g13/goldy/goldy and i have no idea what that is in the smaller pot, but it has to be either g13/goldy/ssk#2 cuz those are the only girls.

i still don't have a camera so till next time, hopefully with tits.

time for another update...long overdue. im sure you all thought i abandoned this thread, i didn't, just don't have a camera. thread is worthless without pics :)

lets see this is week ...About WEEK 5 Flower Week 10 from seed.

im expecting the g13 to be ready round end of november so another 3-4 weeks left. package says 60-65 days. ill see what happens.
picture.php

picture.php

G13 next to SSK#2
picture.php



Goldy is looking to be a longer flowering FUNKY STINKY-er strain like i almost jizzed my pants when i took a whiff. i felt like thurgood when he went to sign for that LB of weed for the scientist. this one does not like being defoliated...AT ALL. like i can look at these tiny little funky smelly buds and know that they would be bigger if i hadn't topped it twice and defoliated. luckily i took clones. omg this shit is some funky fucking funk. i think i hit the goddamn bagseed jackpot.
picture.php

picture.php

picture.php

Goldy and Juanita


SSK#2 is finally starting to flower up, i had to brutalize it again it stretches like the mom almost, well actually no. it does get tall but the mom stretch is way more. but the buds are starting to grow out and it looks like the bud structure will be more indica style with just 4 colas.
picture.php

picture.php


lastly we have Juanita the original mom to this ssk. and it is still going. and going and going... it will go a long while i don't expect to chop for another couple of months. we are currently on week 10 FLOWER for this one and the buds are just now starting to put on any weight.
picture.php

picture.php


pics. to follow.

picture.php

tray full of (4) Circa 94' clones i took before i found out it was a male. i might still do something with em. imma throw one into flower when im near the end of my current grow so that i can flower them out by the time the next generation starts to flower up.
picture.php

the 2 on the left are the lowest node on the G13 i tossed into dirt to see if it would take. I actually wished i had documented these clones better so i could help those people who have soooo much trouble cloning. i took the clones, i stuck them in dirt then i added water. the end. had roots in 1 week on all. i currently have some clones in that tray up there ^^^ just sticks really with leaves on em. gonna see if those root too.
The one on the right with all the leaves is Circa 94' and to the right of it is...SSK#1 lol i let it pollinate itself and im gonna see if those seeds come out hermy or female.
picture.php

the clone on the left i have no idea what it is, i did not label it. it has got to be either Goldy, or SSK#2 doesn;'t look like G13. Top left side is another Goldy Clone this will be my mom the rest im giving away, passing on the funk. the one on the Right is my G13 mom, the rest are being given away also. im totally gonna go to prison for having all these clones..which is retarded since technically i only actually have 4 plants. the seedlings are some testers i recently got. Grapefruit D-Lite (Chocolope(chocolate thai X Cannalope Haze(Haze(random sativa's x random sativa's) x Michoacan ) X Grapefruit(C99 x Neville's haze(HazexNL))) phew! i looked all that up anyway might as well share lol.

sorry for the crap pics im using a webcam, hence that first pic under Bright Lights is nice and clear and the rest under dim light look like blurry fuzzy shit. hopefully i will have a better camera soon.

week.. WEEK 11 from seed / WEEK 6 Flower.

you may notice Juanita is missing.

picture.php

i took her out of the cab to sit in the dark till i finish chopping her down. i took a branch off earlier in the week. small branch, got like 80 seeds from it. i think i have about 2-3 more branches as seeded, so i should end up with over 200 seeds. sweeeeet!

picture.php

picture.php

picture.php

G13 - gave one last final feeding at 4/8 micro:bloom. combined with the miracle gro organic soil i grew it in should last all the way through the end on plain water. i think my roots may be damaged by something. everyone says they're springtails and they're harmless, but my plants this one included have been slow for the past couple of weeks. if you look through the pics i have up there is virtually no difference in 2 weeks on this plant. it's literally doing nothing. i think my roots are too damaged, i havent had to water really in a whole week. i water anyway every other day just to introduce new oxygen, but the pot is barely halfway lighter than it was the previous watering after 2 days. this is 3-4 weeks from the chop and it's not taking up any water? good thing i took clones.


picture.php

picture.php

picture.php

SSK#2 this one finally started taking off with the flowers, and this seems to have initiated a second stretch as the secondary bud sites are starting to grow out, and as a result nitrogen and magnesium deficiencies. but on the bright side, seems to be packing better flower clusters than juanita. still too tall for a cap though. hope one of the 200+ seeds i got from juanita contains a shorter faster plant.


picture.php

picture.php

picture.php

picture.php

finally we have Goldy - By far the smelliest and frostiest of them all. but the yield is pitiful even compared to juanita. maybe the buds will take off closer to the end...but its only on week 5 now and has had mostly cloudy trich since around week 3. it pretty much went straight to cloudy trichomes once the flowers came on. never seen anything like it. i either stumbled across an auto or...something. bagseed lottery jackpot.



The rest of the plants in the cab are Circa94' my old school male bagseed, and a clone of Goldy. these are for the next run along with these. ...
picture.php

Grapefruit D-Lite im test growing for CannVenture.

circa94' is a really slow male so by the time i get pollen the girls should be halfway through flower and just in time to get seeded up with some old school pollen. slow to flower but really realllly fast in veg.


till next time. ADIOS!

WEEK 12 from seed, WEEK 7 FLOWER - 2 more weeks and i chop. the G13 and most likely Goldy.

picture.php

buds appear to have fattened up a little since last week, just slightly but enough for me to notice a little. there also started a second flush of calyxes and i see the roots are growing again. maybe i was doing something wrong before, or its the plants response to the fungus gnat problem i have developed over the last couple of weeks. im working on it i hate having outside factors complicating my grow, like the spidermites i had couple grows back that interfered with my sativa run.

picture.php
picture.php
picture.php

Goldy is also throwing out more new calyxes, might be the same thing about the gnats, or its possibly just that time for the final push before harvest. checking with scope i see goldy is all cloudy, and g13 ir right behind with mostly cloudy. i hope to see some amber on either one before chop, but if not i will still be chopping in the last week of november regardless. sometime before thanksgiving or the day right after.

picture.php
picture.php
picture.php

SSK#2 is coming along at a marvelous pace, way faster than juanita and with more buds. i had to chop the tip of a bud off cuz it got burned on the light. i put it in my bong bout half an hour ago and i am niiiiice. very relaxed no paranoia. happy. not really doing much for my pain but i forgot about it till just then when i flexed my hands. i kinda wished i had cloned it.

picture.php

i have a cloning problem. no not that im having a hard time cloning, just that i have too many. i don't want to just kill them its terrible. i wish i could take them outside, and they're starting to crowd my veg box. i wish i knew some fellow growers i could give them to. oh well... ill keep them as long as i can then i will have to get rid of them for safety's sake.

everything has been chopped cept ssk#2. im rerunning clones of the g13, and goldy which was too awesome to not rerun in a bigger pot for more yields.

besides that grow was plagued with too many problems, problems i hope to fix the second time around.

picture.php

g13 before i started chopping. ...some more anyway. musta taken off like 3 branches...and not in the name of pruning. sample chops and what not, and lost one when the main stem got broken. anyway i know how it grows now and can meet its needs better. for one, less nitrogen.
picture.php

here she is naked with all the fan leaves removed. i noticed a lot of people are taking shots like this, i didn't do any final trim though. i want these buds to keep their bud leaves which i will pick off right before i smoke them. i hope to get nugs enclosed in leaf. makes me feel more authentic lol whatever that means.

g13

larger pots so hopefully larger yields, started from clones, the g13 was the mom but it was so bushy i decided to flower it in anticipation of bud all the way to the soil like the other clones i throw straight to flower. i took the other clones and put em into a single pot as my new "mom"

of course i kept a mom for goldy too and passed clones to friends. this girl is really special.

till next time.

no pics this update, no camera again.

everything coming along, i watered goldy for the first time since i transplanted it and put it in flower. that was close to if not over a month ago. flowers are taking off, got like 14 budsites, last time around i only averages like 1 gram or so per bud. i hope to get half a zip or more from these 14 untopped branches. G13 starting to pick up with the flowering, i didn't even try and count the budsites, just know it's going to be all bud down to the soil. SSK#2 is packin on weight and the pistils are starting to turn, i dunno how much longer but i predict nothing short of 4-6 more weeks as i need to ripen my seeds as well.

hopefully ill have a camera next time. l8rz.

week 4 since i officially say the flowers started up again since i put the clones under 12/12.

WEEK 4 Flower.

nothing to report really everything growing along, i seeded the G13/Goldy buds in the beginning so that i wouldn't have to worry about unintentionally seeding up a whole branch like i did with the ssk#2. buds are starting to cluster up and fill out, more and more pistils everyday.

SSK#2 no longer smells like funky gym socks, now more of a fruity smell like juanita had, obviously yielding way more in less space, similar flowering times though. got another 3-5 weeks before chop.

the future. SSK#2xCirca 94 seeds brewing. i hit em all up with circa 94 actually. prolly grow those out next grow or the grow after.

till next time.

I dunno why no1 has posted, like you're body of work hear :D Just noticed you gotta a lot clear jugs as pots, I really recommend light proofing, I can see algae growing on the roots it can happen with out the light but I think it feeds it, algae seems to grow when there is direct lights to the rooting area. I would think you could increase plant/bud size by switching to orange juice containers that are either taped with black tape or poly or just get an already non see through container. Keep up the good work

hi buju09 thanks for stopping through. the algae grows because of the light hitting the moisture on the sides of the pot, it has no detrimental effects, algae is not harmful except for it blocks light in nature and suffocates fish nearby. in plants it has no harm as algae itself is a simple plant. takes in light and produces oxygen.


WEEK 5 flower.

everything still growing along, goldy starting to pack on buds, slower this time around...well sort of. i didn't keep good notes last time. g13 is frosting up much faster than last time but the buds are smaller at this stage. i think maybe because it is colder this time around. last grow was summertime and in the 90's at canopy all the time whereas it is merely in the low 80's and high 70's this time around and even colder at the floor level about 65 degrees. the grapefruit d-lites are all out of room and i don't know how i will handle when the buds put on weight as they will just keep pressing against the ceiling.

i had to chop the SSK#2 earlier today. i took her out for a photo shoot and just for no reason except the universe telling me i decided to see just how dense the buds are, and something told me to check for mold. and BAM! goddamn botrytis (bud rot) all in one of the 2 big buds. so i plucked out all of it with my fingers luckily it had only recently started and the only damage was a couple of bud leaves and some calyxes. but rather than risk it spreading through all of it i just chopped it a couple weeks early instead.

that kush infusion added more weight to the buds but also increased the mold risk. first time i have ever had a mold issue in this cab.

oh well. all my seeds were just about done anyway with some ready to fall out into the soil. pics tomorrow.
 
sorry to here about the mold stihg...at least you were able to take it down before it got bad! Looking forward to some chop shots!

yeah, i should have caught it beforehand but i wasn't thinking clearly at the time. i would look in the cab and see moisture built up on the wall where the bud has been resting and it didn't don on me to cut my fans back on. i shut em off since we are past the blowing the branches to make them stronger phase, plus its cold here now so nighttime temps really don't need a fan. you live and you learn.

goldy, Goldilocks. packin on the weight now, noticable difference since last time. still seems a little slow even though i didn't take good notes and i had to top it at around 3 weeks in from the stretch.
hopefully i will have constructed a light box so i can take better macro's, or maybe find my goddamn tripod. hard to hold a light in one hand while trying not to move a centimeter for .35 of a second.

last picture of SSK#2 i took right before i found the mold and chopped her down. i be sure to take some trimming and dry pics this time unlike with goldy and g13 last time around. actually that's not completely true.

the bigger bud is goldy, and the small popcorn is the popcorn from the lowest parts of the g13 and that shit was still frosty as fuck and knocked me on my ass. but it was mostly head high with a medium to light stone. i could feel something in my body but it was mostly head. i need some couchlock shit to add to my collection. imma let em go really long this time and see if anything changes. i mean i seriously musta taken em too early even the pure indica supposedly g13 wasn't that stony. the pure sativa i had knocked me out way more than that. i would smoke the sative to make me sleepy after i had been smoking the g13. the goldy was really good too, but like the g13 pretty buzzy, but it tasted really sour which is why im never letting her go ever. like ridiculous i must have stumbled across a sour d bagseed or something.
