I've tried everything you can throw at me and In the end the Lucas formula using general hydroponins had never let me down and my patients have always like the product best without all the other stuff dumped in ... I veg in coco and use 18oz cups after the clones/seeds pop out the rapid rooters the into the cups with coco for a few weeks and then there off to 3/4 gallon containers with pure coco and then 3 gallon Hempy buckets which I then surround the plants with just straight small sized perlite for a few weeks until flower ... Along with the Lucas i also use calimagic to suplement calcium and magnesium since I use an RO filter but that's it ... I also veg for 6 weeks and still use just the Lucas formula for veg so its so simple from veg to end of flower they all get the same formula ... The seeds will be put between wet cotton balls for germination then into straight coco and will only be fead 1/16 of the Lucas formula after about a week of popping out of the coco and losing there husk... We'll if anyone has questions or comments just shoot a post ill throw a few pics up to give an example of what my girls look like grown this way and in the pics there all types of strains since I did alot of seed recently and have some clone only strains going as well

Yes ...for sure ... They also sell the cotton face wipes that are thin and round that woman usually use to remove make up ... The reason they work so well is unlike toilet paper or something of the sort they don't get all tore up after a while if there Beens that don't pop right away so these work great because I like to let the seeds pop a good 1/4-1/2" tail and they don't grow ingot he nasty tore up toilet paper this way they just stay on top of the cotton also they give the seed more air to wate ratio instead of drowning them which for seeds that take a little longer I've seen to away because of this so the cotton works great for any grow method cause from there they to into rapid rooters which I've used in DWC since I do both also do ebb n flo and flood tables and sll my seed get popped this way then into rapid rooters ... The face wipes are easier and they are cheap at the dollar store and with them you just use 2 and wet them and lay seed I between the two and gently press the cotton together around the seeds and thy stay nice and tight around them with the balls I just split them in half then wet them and do tv same as with the face swabs ... I actually had a bunch of seed I made for outdoors I did the other day and was using TP and it was so messy to me that inrannto the dollar store to get swabs .. Got spoiled using them lol

Good tip

Thanks and actually forgot to add that I've done a single seed in one cotton ball before and forgot about it since it was a freebie seed and it had shot the two root and started secondary roots into the Corron ball and had it head poking out all in around 3 days lol so just threw the cotton ball Ina cup surrounded by perlite since at the time I did 100% perlite hempies but that was a fast seed and cont even remember what it was but it was a keeper and actually was one outnonthe whole order that I kept ... Sometimes them freebies are worth more then the actual packs you paid for lol but that was back when I fell for the cup winners hype and learned that most of that is all a joke but that's a whole other thread which there's alot of lol

Winning a cup does increase sales so I would encourage Bog Seeds growers to enter any event with any of my strains. If this were a big cup like ours or HT I would award my own prize of many free seeds.

I didn't even know Bogglegum had been entered in the 2011 HT cup in San Fran. Found out after it won. Sales have gone up with the strain now being my second best seller to sour bubble. SB won the 2008 LA Cup hands down and we were there. The crowd applauded mrs Bog and I. We had friends with us and it was a lot of fun.

Sour bubble didn't need to win really but it helped our big egos.

Events are often fixed. The corruption on this planet is far worse than you imagine.

Recently the addition of lab testing could be a step in the right direction.

Yes sir I hear ya on the cups and ya I like the local cups like our Detroit med cup alot more fair for sure ...

Grow safe

I am running a version of Sour Grape that was gifted by a member on these boards. If these are the IBL version of it you are in for a treat. I'll edit this post later if I find that my genes are different but if they're the same this stuff smells like orange juice and candy when flowering. Tastes like candy!

Can't wait to see this one.... Hurry up NATURE!


Peace!

Sounds like bogs ...The only other one with this name that gets some confused is gage greens grape stomper aka sour grapes which theres is grapes instead grape which they smell different and from your discription the sour grape had a pheno just as you discribed and I've done the grape stomper aka sour grapes also and its different ... Its more grape with a hint of diesel fuel cause the grape stomper had chem in the cross and not so candy smelling ... Its hard to discribe the smell of the grape stomper but the discription you give is defently sounding more like bogs

There is another sour grape that is grape ape x sour diesel. Mine is really not related but earlier sour grape from me is pretty much the same. We will see if this selection improves the strain. I like what I have seen so far.
