Just geminated 20 beans. 80% had germed at 24 hours. These were some of the fastest starting beans. I noticed some had a purple bands around the growth tip. Never seen that before. These will be grown organically under 2 150W HPS. I hope they turn out. I'm waiting for them to sprout.

Peace

I have heard of germination problems. I may even have all 20 sprout, waiting for one more. I'm impressed. Maybe I got fresher beans, but IMO no one should complain. If your germination methods are sound they will sprout. I have always had better than 95% sucess rate. This is the first for 20 beans from a retailer.

Peace

Hey Gdawg61,

I hope your sprouts are doing well.
I'd like to see any pictures if you have some.

Good luck - I'm going to keep my eye on this thread.

Cheers
Leopold

i scrogged my trueblue, they don't stretch much and i wish i would have let the screen fill in more before i flipped. i would let the screen fill in a good 70-80% before going 12/12. don't know about the f13 though. could cause problems if it stretches more...

I'll post pics in a few days. Not much to see until the first leaf sets appear. I'm trying to limit my pics. I used to post updates all the time, times have changed. I will only post the best shots. They are looking good. Maybe one mutant in the TB. The first leaves are deformed slightly. I still have 19 total growing.

Peace

The F13’3 are finished, the smoke test completed, and the mommas are chosen. 8 females total. NO HERMIES!!. Yield was not goal, I just needed to evaluate the smoke. I had to put these under HPS for veg. I wish I hadn’t. These babies don’t branch unless forced. Buds develop later along the sites, but they are small. The top bud is the main yield. I SCROG so this threw a monkey wrench in. I got 8 females so it didn’t matter, but if I had to fill a screen with 2-3 plants it would take awhile. I am not going to get detailed. These were all purple underneath, but my temps were in the high 80’s so not too much color on the bud. 2 phenos are keepers. It’s pretty simple to choose. I went with the best 4 in taste and then chose the most potent 2. I am highly impressed. Beautiful buds, and potency is off the hook. I can’t finish a bowl in one sitting. 3-4 hits and I’m good for awhile. The taste is exquisite. These babies are covered in trichs and the buds are dense and chunky. I have some color. Next grow should be better. 2 excellent mommas, 2 alright plants, and 4 that were harsh. I still don’t know how I got 8 females, but I’m glad I did. Where are the hermies? I may have had some male flowers in there somewhere, but I didn’t see them and no seeds. I rate this stain an 8.5 out of 10. It is HIGHLY recommended. If you’re worried about price than buy cheaper gear. These are worth the money!! Quit slamming DJ and just grow the gear. Watch the nutes. It can handle more than Trueblue, but they are still sensitive.

The True Blueberry got over-fertilized and stressed by transplant. It took awhile for them to recover. I have 3 females at D20. All looking great so far. Forcing branching is the hard part. I recommend a “sea of green” setup unless you have the time to veg and force brancing or grow more in SCROG. I will report as they mature.
