Been a year now since Ive attempted a grow diary, was shut down this fall for several months. I got impatient while waiting for my buddy to forward me clones of one of the strains I made, I call it "Trogband" (Headband x Trogger (Flo x Ox). It has nice yield and great taste and buzz. So I started several other seeds I have made, mostly all bubba crosses, Headband x Bubba, Bruce Banner x Bubba, Ox f2, and I popped a couple of beans I picked up at the HTCC in 15' NYC99 (NYCD x C99), some rando tent that said "MMJ seed club" ? Whatever they look great so far. I finally got 18 of the Trogband clones from my homie after all these seeds were already goin in Black Gold. I put the clones in 4x4 rockwool cubes and setup a flood and drain (which I havent done in like 15 years). Two Days ago I flipped all these plants except for 3 slower plants which will go in shortly. I culled 2 plants (both Ox f2) that where really far behind the rest. This run is "Bubbas Turn" as it was a Bubba male (Verdant Green) that was behind most of these crosses. I also used him on a trainwreck female. That cross came out wicked strong, so I really wanted to see what else he did with my old ladies. I also started a few Bodhi strains , which I recently picked up from GLG. I got 5 each going of Spacecake, Starflight Guava, The Fuzz. I also started 5 Starfighter x LBL freebies and a couple of GG4 s1 a buddy accidentally "made" . I got 100 percent germ rate on these 22 seeds ! They all got planted yesterday. I used a few different types of medium, Rockwool (4) , Root Riot Cubes(6), and the rest in black gold potting soil. I will call this run "Bodhis Space Gorilla Deuce".:biggrin:.Ive never documented 2 runs at once but here goes ! I will do my best to update weekly when possible. My pics will likely suck ...sorry bout that. Next update will have some pics that im about to take. BOOM !

Although I've posted a few earlier pics in some other threads this is the first one here. Really hyped for these runs. All 22 of the seeds have popped their lil tops from each respective medium. 100 percent success ! Today I removed the dome from the tray with the seedlings I also lowed the t5 a bit closer. So today is pretty much day 1 or 2 for all the seedlings. There is awesome positive change with the Trogband clones. The bubba Crosses are really interested to watch grow side by side, the traits are obvious to me...it's a specific leaf growth pattern, almost all of them display to a degree. Yesterday I found 3 plants that appear to have male preflowers. I haven't culled them out just yet, it's only day 3 of flower but did find it interesting that it's one of each of my seeds, ( Bruce x bubba , headband x bubba, and ox f2).

The seedlings, one of the space cakes in the front, really rounded leaves at this point, which is about a week old. Several stretched more than I would have liked, my fault, but probably not a big deal. The rock wool and riot cubes are in the back. Feeding all canna start only.

This is the NYC 99 at 10 days into flower. Crappy pic, nice looking plant really strong, uniformly symmetrical branching and stout. Seems like it wants more nutes or at least nitrogen. One of the two is a male, that I may keep around for a bit.....just to see.

The single plant pic from above, is the Bruce banner bubba kush cross, really showing some f1 vigor. One of the other shots is attempting to focus in on the flood and drain table with the Trogband, which look so much better than when I posted a pic of them on a different thread a couple of weeks ago. Still a bit n deficient from my perspective. Will add some grow to the res. The other shot is of the whole flower tent , flood and drain up front, Coco , smart pots in back.

Here is another ox f2 male. Really nice looking plant ... Huge leaves that display near purple hues around the edges. Noticed this several times with different ox phenos. This was shot just before I put him out on the back porch, where he froze to death last night. I have plenty of f2 s left , and even a few f1 , so I have plenty more opportunities to work with males of this line. I also removed a great looking male of the nyc99. Which I am cloning before I toss. I will probably use him for a chuck pretty soon.

Some more pics from today. Seedlings in the soil looking much better than the rock wool and the root riot cubes. Everything will hopefully get up planted tomorrow, this always accompanies the start of the ipm routine. This first one is just a shot of the current state of the seedlings. My clones (from my bubba Crosses) are underneath the lamp that the seedlings are on.
