Sandtorm x Columbian from Raco ...... - General Test Grows - International Cannagraphic Magazine Forums

foomar · 07-04-2010, 01:21 PM

These caught my eye on the server fund , two already shown male and in a freinds greenhouse and these four at five nodes are slower and more uniform.

Plenty of vigour here and a short internode , has anyone else got them going yet ?

Just discovered its not possible to edit a thread title haveing miss spelt sandstorm.

Glad you posted, foomar. I was wondering who else won this cross. If it's like Raco's other offerings it should be stellar. I have 2 packs of this and a pack of his Deep Chunk x Colombian Mono Rojo. Do you know what kind of 'lombo father he used in this cross?

Do keep us updated on this project. I won't be starting mine until fall.

Grow on...

three weeks on they stretched quite a lot in the first week of flower esp the male in the middle.

One of the girls has a strong stem odour and some colour , other one has no smell at all so far.

One of the four is in the cloner still unsexed , after being savaged by the cat , and another plant came up three weeks after the others and looks to be female , could still end up with four girls with luck.

Day 24 of flower and the two girls stopped stretching at six and seven feet , male reached eight and would have gone higher.

Lovely vigourous healthy look about them and are staying deep lush green.

Few trichs so far but maybe 60 days left and will doubtless turn up later , sharp smell on one and a touch of colour on stems.

In MR x DC,the colombian was the mother
Sandstorm x MR,the colombian was the father
both male and female MR are siblings of the n+3 generation

thx for the kind words!

Hi Raco , cant believe the vigour of these in two litres of soil and no nutes , they are unlikely to do their best in my cramped indoor room and would love to be able to run them properly under glass.

Have another girl , this one a little more compact at the same node , ready for the stretch this time , showed sex earlier than the first two.

Leaform is consistant across all plants , huge fans on all.

Nice work foomar...

foomar · 08-15-2010, 09:02 PM

Thanks BENJI , grown themselves so far and are tougth , stems need no support and they make good use of minimal nutes.

Another girl confirmed which makes four in total , this one had the lower six nodes slugged off and was deep planted to recover , set it back a couple of weeks and should be more manageable.

The first two are still green and budding fast , smell is like the best NL i ever had at this early stage , really clean and fresh.

Some pink pistils here and there , these could be stunners by the end.
