Thanks Solid :tiphat:
I don't want to spoil the ending, but when it's over, I get REALLY REALLY HIGH ;-)

So I had these males, and this was never supposed to be a selection run, but there were a few to pick from, and some very nice specimens in the lot.
The Biker Kush male I chose seemed like it had the most mother influence. DARK wide kushy leaves, compact growth.
The Chem4 cross showed a wicked bright green healthy appearance with the nastiest double serrated leaves I had ever seen.
The ECSD cross male I chose was also a standout.

The MMS5 male seemed identical to the female, and definitely different from everything else. Started calling it Mullum Rex because of it's giant plant structure and nasty smells.
The Nev21 eMM was darker and faster than the mullum, more like what I was used to from MNS crosses, but with a sweet thai smell to it.

Why all this talk about males?
Well you remember that pic that showed the males after I chopped the mullum in half? There was a long branch from the mullum growing right through the canopy of the other plants.

Well, that mullum was way behind the other males in flipping, and by the time the other males looked like this, the mullum was nowhere close.

I discovered this while I had both rooms open at the same time, and an accidental bump of the mullum released a cloud of pollen from all the other males that instantly floated into the females.
More on that later.

In a scrog packed into a small space like mine, it becomes hard to see into the back half of the canopy. I wind up only really knowing what is going on in the front of my space. This makes environmental control really important to prevent bad surprises. Temps, humidity, air exchange along with moisture and nutes, all are dialed in for this space and customized for the strains.

So, here are a few pics from 44 days flowering from a few plants in the front that I have the best pics of:

What are you trying do up there Raho, pollinate the whole east coast!?!:) I know a few of those pollen grains slipped in my door, my Frisco cut is jammed with seed.It's been hanging for 20 days and every time I bump into it, seeds fall out.I have one big cold room by my a/c where all my plants dry whole.It has a dehum running 12 hrs a day but the a/c keeps it around 65 F.Nice for a long dry time but I'll tell ya' there's some healthy looking seed from the oBoy/Frisco and the Mullum/Super 5.Hopefully I can start culling this week.:)

Even though it was an accident when it happened, I was actually thinking of doing it on purpose a month before it happened :)

Those Frisco BXs will be solid gold.
Fighting the urge to skip right to the smoke reports :)

Hi Raho,

Very interesting crosses you have there. Looking forward to seeing how you get on with them.

Good to see Sam over here too.

This thread reminds me of the good old days on mns forums.

Peace

I hear you PRJ :)
I saw that Yo Sammy was banned over there this week.
I hate when the guard dog bites a guest.
Yo Sammy has earned the respect of the community for years and has never said a bad word about, or been anything but a supporter of Shanti.

I miss the old days over there, but it makes me feel bad for people who think there is only room for one source of seeds in this business, or that everything that is out there originally came from Nev's and Shanti's work.

Back on topic.

Please forgive the gap between posts. I am like Slip Kid, I shoot hundreds of pics to find one good one.
When you are doing a grow log and posting pics as you go, it is not so bad.
Doing a retro-log like this one, you have to go back and scrub the winners again, it takes time.

Alright, those last pics were week 6 of a 12 week run.
I was on a clock i couldn't change, regardless of how much more time the girls might need at the end.

Before my males dumped, I had done some early pollination with some year-old pollen. NL5, Ortega and Blueberry NL.
I had not stored it properly and I knew my odds were poor. Figured I had to try, and dusted the biggest buds I could reach with the old dust for the following crosses:
  • MMS5 x NL
  • MMS5 x Ort
  • 21eMM x BB-NL
  • MK x BB-NL
These were excellent males.

Now it's time for a series of pics taking us through flower.

Not much left but chop pics, dried pics and smoke reports.

Anything you want to see more of before all that?

Thanks Wally.
I have been writing up smoke reports in personal messages to friends over the last few weeks so I can pull them together pretty quickly.

Interesting to see that big changes to the smell/smoke at 2 weeks in the jar and more change at 3 weeks.
Now it is stable.

Hi Raho would you say the haze flavours and aromas dominate in your crosses?

It looks like all your crosses have inherited hazey resin with the fine blanket of small heads, even the chem, sour and kush crosses.

Are you getting any consistent aromas/flavours in the progency of the various mothers used?

Peace
