Grow notes:

Seemed to need to veg an extra 5 days compared to my normal 20 day veg time. They start off extremely squat yet wide for their size and continue to grow like this. They were slightly slower than my Chimera genetics and Serious Seeds White Russian. They had about the same veg time as Manadala's Sadhu if that helps anyone. They continue to grow wide and squat throughout veg. I veg to 6-8 inches. I flowered these at all around 6-7.

All 8/10 of them are on the right in this photo.



Here are some shots under the flouro:

sup 40? can I ask what size bags are those also what size is your tent? ok one more did you preflower them first?...peace

Nope waiting on sex and they are in 1 gal bags right now in a week they will be in 3 gallons. This is a new method for me and as you can see some very slight burn on them and some crinkled a bit when they hit the nute mix at the bottom of the bag 2-3 days too early so next time I will buffer with more normal soil however this mistake should not effect this grow at all in my opinion and the crinkle and nute burn were extremely small.

I decided to try to start in 1 gal bags this time as before I was doing 6 inch squares then transferring to 3 gallons the day of flower which = a huge waste of soil and time. With this method I only transplant once and I have enough time to flower them out and find the females and only transplant those to 3 gallons. Some people will say I am not transplanting enough and Jorge used to be one of them but he says he is now a believer in this method as he states in his book he noticed 0 difference over years and years of watching plants done both ways...so we shall see.

very uniform looking,
cant wait to see them by harvest!!
grow hard

Yea, thats why I did a line shot. They are suprisingly very uniform and I didn't even need to mark them to tell what they were. Very distinct large leaves that are the same on all of them and same growth rate and pattern. I was definitely expecting more variation but nope looks solid so far.

Good luck with them

Wish you lot of girl!

Waiting to see big bud!

Peace

Wow, I am not going to buy non femmed seeds again for a long time...

0/10 females from hashberry

0/5 sadhu...

0/7 Calizahr

3/10 GF x BB

4/11 SER White Russian

Shit out of 30 seeds for one 1kwatt tent only 4 were fucking female lol...I have never had this problem but this is just friggin horrible luck my God I am like 30 days behind on my grow schedule now.

The good news is we have atleast 2 confirmed females out of the SB's they are slow to show sex so I am hoping maybe luck will have it the others are all females lol...

I had to pop 30 more seeds and now I have 0 seeds for back up = not good hope these all workout. On a good note since I ran out of all my seeds I popped 10 drizzles so we will get a good pheno show out of that hopefully.

40~ you will never run out of seeds to pop bro,
you are one of the testers that i wouldn't mind making a permanent
grapevine tester, you have shown me love, so if you ever need anything
just shoot me a pm and we will make SURE you don't have problems as i can
always send testers to sbay for you

also, non femmed seeds are the ONLY way to go imo...
you could have a whole tent a week from harvest only to find
that a FEMd seed had gone unstable as SO MANY do and pollinated
your entire grow, at least you have stable genes... if i were you i would
pick a nice mom or 2 out to bush out for clones in case you ever need to fill
room up in the tent

on a side note, i'm glad to hear you're poppin' grapevine gear, this
should be fun bro

peace

another side note!

the GDP x mothership is a feminized cross, the pollen was stressed
out of a GDP (kens) and pollinated the mothership,
you may want to keep an eye on those seeds as i found like
3 keepers so far that were stable and the others were not stable,
i.e. threw nanners, so i warn you now that this cross is not stabilized
but the most AMAZING herb came from those that were stable,
i'll post some of f2k's pics of the grandma, he grew 2 phenos,
my selected indica pheno and the sativa pheno that he kept

good luck
