Colombian Black

Man, you're killing it @Zanddar!

Taking another chair here too.

 

[Zanddar]

Another germed and brings the total in pots to 48.

 

[Zanddar]

A few more of the early risers.

The one that really stands out so far is CB #8.
In the light it looks red red red. In low light it looks black and blends in well with the soil.
It will be part of the breeding project and pass on something good for sure.

CB #11 has some reds too. Most others are green though.

@Zanddar

How will this project go?
How many different CB do you plan to keep? Will you grow outdoor and indoor? Looks like a rewarding full time job.

 

[Zanddar]

I'm in a cold part of Canada and only fast strains can finish outdoors here.

Already have a full time job and this is like having another one.

I always keep the best from each strain to make seed from and the best clones to try again.

Hopefully the CB can finish outside with light dep if you go that route. It's easier down here at 42 lat near windsor. We can grow outside with no greenhouse til mid November. With a greenhouse, early december.

End of September is pretty much it for harvesting anything outdoors. Most crops are down in August.
I may in the future try some Afghans outdoors. Mazar-i-Sharif land race I have to do yet.
I don't normally grow much in the way of Indica and Sativa is my choice.

Off topic but great area for pizza lovers evidently. Saw a doc recently on Tastemade network that was very through and cool.
Volcano pizza
Galati cheese
Shredded toppings
Canned mushrooms
Very cool community

Another germed today bringing the total to 49 in pots.

What's your plan for the repro.

Lotsa plants, big, long flowering, hermie tendencies maybe...

Cuts in cups/bed open pollination, finding a good parent pair, many runs or just the one... or something?

 

[Zanddar]

Well first it will be selecting plants with special traits, the most vigorous of plants and solid structure.
Strong smells and sticky plants are chosen. Using mutiple males/females at once or in successive breedings.
Any plants that herm in flower or with undesireable traits will be discarded. The same as I do with any other reproduction.

 

[blondie]

Excellent to see this. I hope the plant lives up to what is expected of it. CB#8 X A5 haze might be interesting cross. I bet this is already on the schedule. If not..... put it on!!

WOW... in the early/early 70's, prob 70/71 , i had some weed that was almost black, and 1/2 way thru the joint, your fingers had tar on em... it was ass-kickin... in those days there were no names, but since i copped it from a crewmember off a grancolumbia ship in new york that mite be the black u are speaking of...

 

[Zanddar]

Look at the long narrow leaves.

Yes that would be it.

 

[zachrockbadenof]

Yes that would be it.

good luck.... find that special lady.... u will be married to her for life

 

[Zanddar]

Was hoping I would hit 50 and #50 germed today.

 

[Beaucephus]

I want to apologize, I didn’t realize this was ace’s forum. The cb i grew was gifted to me in a trade about 10 years ago and i’m not sure where they originally came from but i doubt it was ace. Although possible i guess. Sorry for my ignorance.

 

[squatty]

Wow, number 8 looked amazing as it started. Beautiful.

 

[Ur Humbl Nr8tor]

I’ve got my eyes on this pollination, Zanddar. This looks like it’s going to be a hell of a ride.
