Fuel & Labrador

[Biomehanika]

Hey everyone !

As promised on OG.Gotti's thread (OG Affie Chem), this pictures/macro of Fuel and Labrador strains from CSG !

For the little story, I've run 4 seeds of each strains (+1 AK-48 freebie to be sure to have at least something to smoke, in case of bad luck and high rate of mâle).

Got 1 female and 3 mâles for the Fuel (mâles was so vigorous and highly branched); 3 females and 1 male for the Labrador (but 1 female turned completely hermie at the 4th flowering week, except the entirely main bud and all other buds from above)

Grow under 250w MH during veg for 30 days (I really wanted 400w but MH run hotter than hps and with 400w it was at 26-28°C/79-82°F >_<) and under 400w HPS during flo for 73 days.
Tent 80x80x180cm and feed with enzymes, root excelurator, fish mix, plagron alga bloom & green sensation. 2 vita race vaporiz

It was my very first indoor grow (5 years in outdoor) and obviously really different from my outdoor sessions x)
Many rookie errors, specially with nutes stopped too early (4 weeks of flush with pure water and enzymes at right ph) or thinking it's over-fertilizing while it's under, etc...
I'm an alone grower, none of my friends/family grow but plenty of them are heavy smoker and particularly in my family, so I can't to be helped irl. Little bit frustrated sometimes ^^
Anywai, I've learned a lot and so impatient to begin my second run !

I start with the Fuel

Colors look great...terrific job

 

[Biomehanika]

Thank you djxx !
I grow in the basement/garage of the house and I have to leave a little window open for my extraction duct.
So, even if the night of my garden is during the day, it was 18°C/64°F (and actually a little bit less during drying process but very good ventilation !). Maybe the cause of this nice red tones ^^

I just opened the door leading to the basement and......it REEKS kushy/fuelly/coffee directly on the living room x)
For information, behind this door, there is stairs toward basement/washing/ironing room and an other door for the garage where my tent is... No way, the smell clears all obstacles xD

I'm very worried about when I will be on my future apartment with clones, few tents, etc...

 

[Biomehanika]

Thanks to you too jd4083 =) !
Now i'm waiting the drying process end, the hours and hours of trimming and especially the weighing and smoke report !!
But I don't expect "huge" amont because of my mistakes. I smoke 20-25g per month so I really want at least 120g ! Goal was 0.5g/w, so 200g for 4 plants, but I'll not reach this amount

Very nice Biomehanika

Looks like the labrador aka Og Affie Chem throws some nice chunky tops & looks sticky as fuk!

I am yet to grab the fuel but its much wanted, though i did get the Og Affie Chem popped 5 3 up & chuggin along. Hope the ladies to come out & play!?

Smoke report you say....ShweeeT, i look forward to that.

PLR&£

 

[Biomehanika]

Big thank you ForTheLove !
Oh yeah the Labrador is incredibly sticky !
I check the plants everyday 'cause they're in drying and my fingers are covered of glue with a fuuuunky smell ! It reeks severly chemy-coffee almost too strong ^^

Fuel is frosty as hell ! Dank sour citrus

Next will be Hey Dave for sure and probably cheese n chong and wardareek'n og !

 

[ForTheLove]

Ahhhh mouth watering as i read that smell description

 

[Biomehanika]

More Labrador ! 2 really good dog

 

[Biomehanika]

It was at 8 weeks !
Yeah, like I said, the smell fill-out the entire house ><
I can't wait

 

[Biomehanika]

And Fuel around 7~8 weeks !
Yummie

I've ran fuel a few times and it's easily one of my favorites. I never got any citrus scents though. Sounds interesting.
Labrador is back on the radar now. Thanks for posting. There isn't very much info on labrador.

 

[Biomehanika]

Yep, Labrador is desperately without threads !

For the Fuel, I was in the wrong word, no citrus but citric ! Yeah it's like acid powder on candies !
But nothing like gasoline/diesel.

Even if I go very often to Amsterdam and smoke hundreds of strains during years, sometimes it's hard to describe u.s. strains when you are not familiar with them !

I need a week of learning and training with awesome grower =D

 

[Bobbo4200]

Damn kidd! Great job! Fuel had me intrigued when I first bought some CSG gear, nice to see what can become of her! I'll be thinking bout her this upcoming winter, when I make my seed order again. And it looks like you are doing a pretty darn good job! Keep up the good work! Ima tagged on this thread-

 

[Biomehanika]

Oh thank you sooo much Bobbo !
It makes me really happy to have some nice compliments ^^
I'm only 24 and it was my first indoor, so for me it's not as good as I see on some awesome growers here !
Like I said, few rookie errors that I have well understand now and I'm very impatient to start my second grow !

Goal was 200g with 4 plants under 400w, but if I have 30g per plant it will be perfect. Some doubts, but we'll see

Hippy Private Stash is definitly one of my future grow !!
So hard to choose between all this amazing CSG strains, ahah ! I keep an eye on your journal

 

[t99]

Nice 1st grow! And thanks for including the full plant pictures, for me, seeing the shape and structure is as important as the bud close ups. This is the only Labrador I've seen, thanks!
Good luck with your future gardens!

 

[Biomehanika]

Yep, I try to show every aspect 'cause like you said, shape is important, really important !
We could easily see that the 2 Labrador have almost same shape. The taller is so chemy-funky-kushy, the smallest is chemy-fuelly with a nice hint of bubblegum ^^
I can't said too many things because I've only run 4 seeds of Labrador but the genetic is really nice in uniformity, etc !

I promise well smoke report of 3 plants (and even the 4th, the ak-48)
