Hi IC.

This is my first posted grow! This is more for me to keep a record of what I am doing and put it into some sort of order. Any comments / feedback etc are most welcome.

I have popped a Black Rose seed which I was fortunate enough to get from Graham (received 3 reg purple wreck for free too). I got a pack of 11 regular seeds, but I'm a bit funny about popping lots of seeds at the same time and to be honest, I only need to run one at a time. The only time I ever did was when I had shed loads of bagseed. This was when I was a teenager and expected great things from growing plants on my window sill! Since then I have only pulled off one grow of Pineapple Express in a DR100 tent under a 400W MH for veg then a 600W HPS for flower. That didn't go too badly so I have grown out a clone of that.



The seed popped after only about 12hrs in a shot glass of tap water.



After 24hrs I transferred it to damp kitchen towel on a small plate. Unfortunately I let it dry out and the root shriveled a bit and went brown. I thought that was it, but I persevered and despite it looking very sad, even when I popped it into a jiffy pellet, it sprouted and now has the first healthy sets of leaves.



This grow is very much undefined. Currently I am waiting for the PE clone to finish and a pure power plant (both in DR100 tents and due to finish in 2-3 weeks). Once these are done the room will have plywood mounted to the internal walls , which will be insulated. I think the black rose will go into one of the DR100 tents to be kept as a mother. Clones will be taken and if I can get it together I will be running a mini vert a la Heath Robinson. While I realise this is unoriginal, I just want to try it out. I would have gone the whole hog and copied his flooded vert but I honestly don't have the skills to attempt anything that involved. I think it's going to be tough going feeding the mini vert with clones as it is. I also want to try a tree grow of the black rose. So like I said, a little undefine, but we'll see how it goes. Either way, I'm excited about the black rose. I've not seen a decent purple strain for years from any of the local market traders round these parts.

Hey there, If I were you, I would edit your posts mentioning where you got the seeds. Although we are permitted to discuss and show any seeds/plants/strains at all now, linking and directing people to other vendors is still not permitted. It would be a shame if your thread got binned, as I would like to see this grow.

i too would like to follow along b/c the bag of Black Rose in Heaths thread looks so damn good.

I'd like to grow some, just because the black buds look so exotic!

[petemoss]

I can't seem to link to the forum thread but check out these pics of the purple/black buds! Something you don't see everyday...
