Strawberry Lemonade

stim · Oct 29, 2017

I recently bred a strain called Strawberry Lemonade. It is SFV og x Crockett's strawberry fields. I have been running it for about 14 months now. Predominantly strawberry in terps with some og funk (some phenos more than others) and the og eye recessing blow back and sedative effects. I am going to journal a grow of it and a new male I have chosen to pollinate my Sour Raspberry (mendo IBL male x (sour slut x sun sour)) and a ghost train haze clone I picked up.
nutrients:
6/9 micro bloom jungle juice
Nitrozime
fossil fuel
Botanicare hydro guard
If need be (probably won't use):
Silica Blast
Pure blend tea
Fulvix
RAW potassium
RAW nitrogen

Medium:
Pro Mix HP amended with Growstone large chunks

Room & Equipment:
6' x 3+' room
orca film on walls (works great)
20' box fan
Solis-tek digital 1000watt
Sun System Blazer 6" hood
Hurricane 6" fan

I am all about my heavy metal count so you likely won't see me using the Botanicare products because of their unacceptable levels of arsenic, nickel and lead probably from their dirty source water. Pictured are some seedlings I just popped as freebies to get some plants out there. I will include some photos of my veg/flowering plants by tomorrow. Thanks

Here are some photos of the new male. It is the first plant of this strain with variegation and extra leaves.

Just to add I will not be using the RAW nutes for the aforementioned heavy metal reasons. The plants are itching for a transplant which is why they are looking a bit funky right now. They will be transplanted, happy and healthy as usual shortly (tomorrow). I will shoot up some pics of my ghost train clone, sour raspberry and strawberry lemonades for blooming and dusting. Thanks

heres some root porn from the transplant. They were in 2 gallon grow bags the roots were snaking out of the drain holes and as you can see even contoured to the bags flaps at the bottom

Its been a long time I didn't forget about this diary I will include photos of bloom soon.

Unless your supplying dispensaries in CO with product...
This name has already been used.
I've got a bit of wax here by my side with that exact same label.

It is the tastiest wax I've experienced from a commercial product! I savor the flavor every inhale & exhale where it is involved.

my dispensary in MI also stocks that strain. I was done with my breeding process when that strain was popularized what are you gonna do? My name reflects the actual terps of a strawberry lemonade which it tastes like and is different than that strain. That strain tastes like a crockett clone of strawberry banana more than strawberry lemonade. My terps are predominately real strawberry flavors like a strawberry lemonade. I am doing something different than them I'm not worried about competition. I am not a commercial clone grower like theirs and am looking to provide patients with real strawberry meds BTW strawberry fields was also already taken I don't see crockett worried about it.

Those "strains" aren't anything that bruce banner hasn't done already more like clones really. Erdbeer based strains are lower in thc when they are tastier they just seem to breed well with the og. bubblegum based genetics like mine have the highest thc by themselves and are the new strawberry. I'm not growing for recognition I grow for personal satisfaction and to keep the juices flowing.

Id like you to clarify exactly what you mean by that name has already been used if I call my bud a name it doesn't make it an intellectual property. Those guys ripped off bruce banner and are probably just a clone of someone else's stuff. Lets face it that bud is low in thc and doesn't taste however you like whatever it tastes like anything like strawberry lemonade as far as I'm concerned they are ripping a name for popularity. that strain was useful for making white wax when most people made golden wax it's an under 20% strain that was fresh frozen and easy to photograph. If you like it so be it but it has nothing to do with strawberry lemonade come on that whole savoring every flavor sounds like some serious ass kissing to me :moon:

God damn!
Do you get offended much?

No need to tell you anything as you already know it all!

strawberry lemonade pics

strawberry lemonade pics

Here are some pics of some Strawberry lemonade in bloom. They are recovering from some PH issues caused by sulfuric acid don't use that stuff unless you use a good flushing agent in your soil/less or coco

They have 5+ more weeks to go and I will keep you all updated and try to include some interesting/different phenos in my pics. Also included is a pic of Sour Raspberry swollen with preggo goodness

I also f2'd the Strawberry Lems looking for more lemon terps I think people want lemon and strawberry not more strawberry dom it seems that's what people think when they hear strawberry lemonade. Thanks all and sorry for my MJpassion

sorry bro! :tiphat:

FYI nutes are 6/9 micro bloom, rock resonator, fulvix, fossil fuel and vitamino. I feed base 6/9 and resonator with vitamino and flush with fulvic and humic (fossil fuel). One feeding per week and flush when VERY dry.

So tell me more about the sulfuric acid issues.

stim · Dec 20, 2017

I use an xtreme nutrients grow product which is essentially just sulfruic acid in a bottle. It wil strip the root system down to the casparian strip which is on the inner section of the roots it regulates how much water enters the plants sensitive inner areas (xylem) and kicks out things like organic material until it has broken down into ions because organic material could potentially make the plant sick from impurity or disease. The sulfuric acid strips the roots down to this casperian strip and the plant produces a new root system very quickly and aggressively. It should only be used when the plant's canopy is the size of the pot that it is in but it will double the plants canopy size very quickly. The plant concentrates on producing roots and canopy and I use it as a tool for increasing your plants top canopy for scrogging. The down side is that sulfuric acid has a very low PH and is extremely dangerous to use! It reacts with water and will burn you severly and cause excruciating pain! I use only approx 1ml per gallon of water. My problem was that I didn't use a flushing agent other than my usual flushes of humic/fulvic acids and water. The sulfuric must have stayed in the medium and casues fluctuation in PH (lowered it) then with my usual feeding the issue was worsened by high ppm and EC levels interacting with that lower PH and locking out nutrients and starving the plant of water intake because of an increase in osmotic pressure from the high nutrient levels (salts) that were unavailable to the plant because of the whacky PH. Osmotic pressure is caused by and what causes high levels of salts and ions to make water un"drinkable" by the plant and starves it out. My leaves were less turgid (crispy and breaking off) because they couldn't uptake water and burned by the high salts when they did uptake water. I did extensive flushing and am getting a sample of botanicare's clearex and their ph up and down to correct the issue for future use. I hope that helps thanks!

When using salts you probably shouldn’t let your soil dry out too much. When your soil dries, pH tends to drop out causing a plethora of symptoms due to an over abundance of available nutrients resulting in lock outs.

starke · Dec 20, 2017

Thanks for the insight. I sometimes use sulfuric acid as a ph down with my alkaline well water.

MJPassion · Dec 20, 2017

How long have you been using H2SO4?

Pretty sure it’s not normally used for a reason. I’d guess that you’ll eventually (sooner rather than later) run into bigger issues down the road due to an acidified soil. I could be wrong though so why I am asking.

S will also attach to your cations & leach them from the soil.

MJPassion: I've used it for the past two documented grows in my diary: Hawaiian Snow which ended early due to Hurricane Irma (fifth week of flower) and the current grow of Super Lemon Haze in the 8th week of flower (three gallon Hempy Buckets). I have had no issues until a mystery problem with one of the Super Lemon Haze plants this grow. I'm using about one half cup diluted H2SO4 (two cups H2sO4 to one gallon of distilled water) to each 30 gallon batch of nutes. Idea came from this thread here on IC:

https://www.icmag.com/ic/showthread.php?threadid=64955

When stim mentioned it here I had to ask because I'm still trying to figure out what happened to my one plant. I don't think this is my issue either because my other three genetically identical SLH plants are doing great. In fact, I started their flush today with my well water ph'd to 5.8 with the H2SO4.

stim/MJ: thanks for the info.

stim: my apologies for jacking your thread for a minute.

Thanks for the great advice!

No problem on the thread I'm really sorry to hear about Irma I hope everything is going to work out better than before. I am also really interested in your plant issue this thread is for everyone.
