40 year old seed! wow its older than me,

You have some interesting clones is it the real Pitbull?
If you are looking for couch lock look into chem D and an some heavy kush /indica strains.
Good luck.

I've grown one of the Trainwreck using pseudo organic technique. I'll talk about it later but it is definitely couch lock. Keep me high for hours and that is saying something for me.

I got the Pitbull from a local dispensary. I don't know anything about it but that was the label it had. I got Pineapple Express from a blade down south. I got the two Trainwrecks, OG Kush, Chemdawg from my old grow buddy when he took cuttings off them and gave what was left to me. The rest I got from the dispensaries.

I'll see if I can come up with some chem D. I don't know many growers face to face so finding something that is not from a dispensary is difficult for me. Bringing in dispensary clones is always dangerous. I have to watch them like a hawk for PM, mites and fungus gnats.

I could pop some seeds if I find some. I think I have seeds for sour D but I'm not sure. I'd have to look at the label again. I like cloning verses seedlings because I know what I have. Seeds are always an adventure.

I stole that idea from another organic grower. I mulch my vegetable garden and my soil was drying out on top. So timothy hay seemed like a good choice. I'll give a report on it later. I just applied it 2 days ago. I'm loving the smell in my flower area. It's an earthy just mowed lawn smell.

I haven't got to smoke any Pitbull. My 80's grow friend (yet another story I'll relate later) was going it and I took a cutting from it. Yikes, more PM and mites to deal with but I got both eradicated and under control. He harvested on Friday night and was kind enough to give me a couple of branches to try. I'm curing it now.

I'll give you a report but it wasn't grown in organic soil. I had to watch them for 2 weeks while he was out of town so I treated them like I would an organic grow. I'll tell you more about this later.

Mildred, ah Mildred. I was told when I purchased her from the dispensary that the only back history was the strain came from a Mexican breeder who was telling his wife (the grow was in the basement) that he needed to check on Mildred. So that's all I know. Looking at the plant structure is looks like it's more indica than sitiva.

These are all new to me except PE and I've grown that about 3 times. PE is okay but not the couch lock I'm looking for. So this is my last go with her.

So today I saw one of the Eminem clones was showing roots today. I clone in clear cups just so I can observe this.



I transplanted it into a 1 gallon pot of my soil mix. I dusted the roots with VAM. I then sprinkled some neem cake and covered it with EWC.

So in the early 70's here in the PNW no one was growing or at least no one thought that anyone grew. I met my old grow buddy when I got of the army in 1969. Back in those days you purchased Mexican rag weed by kilos and then the kilos got broke down into lids which is what I bought. It had stems and seeds in it and the quality would be compost material now days. It's what it was.

My old grow buddy and I used to talk about growing our own. We had two different agendas though. He was into the production side of it and all I wanted was a reliable source of good quality marijuana. So we had a common goal but different interests. My grow buddy went and pursued his interest and sometimes I would help out on the harvest because he paid me with some of the cured product. He fulfilled his goal and I fulfilled mine. It worked out good for both of us.

One time I decided to take pictures. Now my old grow buddy is so stealthy there was no way he wanted to have his picture taken so he handled the camera. The seeds were from some of the best quality Mexican weed that could be found. These were sitivas and they grew about 10-12 feet tall.



So I got pictures developed and no one batted an eye when I picked them up. I'm sure they didn't recognize what was in the picture. This was on opening day of upland deer season. But that's another story of what excitement we had that day. I only helped with the bigger fields. This is what the field looked like down in the hidden valley.



Anyway that is how I learn to grow the herb, from my old grow buddy.

Enough of the old days here is what I'm up to now. No stealth valley grows for me. These are 3 of my teenagers. This is in my organic soil and I'm loving the light green foliage these girls are putting out.

Mildred and Trainwreck 2 are going into the flower area this weekend.

Here is what the ladies looked like when I moved them into the flower area. This is the first day of 12/12.



They consented to a close up. This is 8 days later.

They've really stretched out in the last 8 days. I get the next pictures this weekend.
