Sweet Pink Grapefruit test - HortiLab Seeds - International Cannagraphic Magazine Forums

Volga Budmen · 08-28-2013, 02:45 AM

I was excited at the prospect of testing these, and astounded when selected to do a test grow! I have been waiting around to get a new computer when my old one crashed and died right after I was selected! Now I can't find the damn cable to connect the camera to the computer! Still, I have been taking pics from the beginning and will post pics ASAP. So far, I have 7/11 germinated and hoping for more (started 7/20 but 1 or 2 just germinated today)! Also I have shark shock with 5/9 germination so far, and chemy jones 5/5 but a couple look shaky, I had to pop the seed hull off a couple. I usually get like 95% germination so guess I did not do something up to optimum levels this time or something, So looking forward to posting pics while also wondering about others test grows. I am looking for any and all tips on posting pics as safely as possible and taking pics in the first place, as most of mine seem too dark or too washed out by light. Never had a need or interest to learn how to take pics before now, believe it or not, so I can use help. thanks

Hey VB, good to see your SPG grow! I usually have a great germ record (it's been a solid 100% until recently) but I've really botched it lately!

thanks

Yeah there are pictures and I keep taking more, so once I find that damn cord and can upload them they will be here. So just imaginary pics for now!

I am working on it!
thanks for the support!

I think there are 8 now. I will take pics before and after the transplant. They have been doing little but now really starting to show a passion for life! A reminder to myself to insert those pics here.

Curious to see or hear about their progress Volga. Happy picture snapping once you got everything sorted!

I was all kinds of busy and then the holidays and also had all kinds of scares and all kinds of bad luck I did not want to admit!

I have taken pics all along, not as often as I should but they are looking good! I will post months of pics and info here soon, I hope someone can give me help on how to avoid metadata and that kind of thing just in case!

I am sorry, but I will make up for it soon, I am no scammer that's for sure! I owed you all more and I am sorry, but I intend to deliver now thanks hortilab for understanding!

Any updates Volga?

Yes I am very sorry man, anything I say will sound like an excuse so I won't say it. I have to get together and organize my notes and pics and put it together into a coherent thread. Very soon my friend! Again, sorry for the long delay!

2/15 edit (2/12 orig post): Man, trying to make sense of my chicken scratch notes is like trying to decipher some ancient language! I have not finished all the trimming or did a smoke test, so at this point might as well do it all at once! Note to self and others, MUCH easier (and proper) doing this little by little as you go along. I am crazy busy as expected help did not materialize, and had issues to deal with. So within a couple days or certainly within a week, I will have a proper thread here and plenty of pics to share, and obligations fullfilled. Again, sorry for the delay! peace

2/26 edit: It's been that long? Again I am really sorry and I truly mean that! I am so disorganized and discombobulated it isn't funny! Getting there though! I won't promise a day and then break my promise, but I do promise I will end up having a pretty good grow thread after all. I could rattle off a long laundry list of reasons and I would not be lieing but it would just come off as excuses. And I have no excuse, I am bad and take full responsibility for my shortcomings, but I guarantee I will set things right ASAP. And it does look really nice and smells just like the name, like Sweet Grapefruit. I will continue growing this one for sure!
