Nice plants all! Makes me glad I have a female HxUM clone from one skunky momma. I've noticed the HxUM clones grow at least twice as fast as the mother they came from. The clone I have has been just throwing out three fingered leaves. I also have 2 female C99 x Haze's and I believe two males of the C99 x Haze. I gave them a quick branch trimming, as right now I am keeping them bonsai style. They should be flowered a little after christmas, so they should be extremely potent . The HxUM's I had flowering went under bad, bad heat burn (damn summer heat). I managed to recover a few F2 beans from some calyxes. A couple look viable, so I'll probably start them soon to see if I can get an F2 male to pollinate an F1 female . Whelp, enough rambling. Keep it green.
Hey 4fingers - you just put a nice smile on my face . I have a nice hummer at 45 days, stinks like a mofo, and is really starting to pump out the trichs. I'm thinkin 10 more days. How long did you let yours go?
Sitting here right now puffing on the HxUM. It's cured for about a week now and is real nice. It smells more skunky and an Indica stone, except it doesn't create couch lock.
Everyone's grow is looking nice. Be sure to donate seeds or guidance to someone just starting, in the spirit of JLP.
The buds are fattening up at a furious rate! One of my plants was looking wobbly up top, and, sure enough, when I was rotating the pots as I watered on Monday, it listed over and was leaning against the wall. I took a popsicle stick to give it a little more support, but the whole plant was keeling over, so I lashed some thread around the popsicle stick and stem and tied it to the closet rod above the plant. The side branches are starting to bend and droop under the weight, as well. I was going to harvest after Halloween, but now I'm probably going to harvest two or three days before - around Day 57 of flowering.
Here's plant #1 - a little more robust, but also having a thicker stem, a closeup of the top of the plant. Can't really tell because of the crappy camera, but they're getting fat and frosty.
Very nice job! I was very lucky and able to try some of the H.U.M that Fingers grew and let me say it was some of the finesest I have ever smoked. Proves 2 things. 1its a killer strain and 2 Fingers knows what he is doing. But from your pics so do you. Good job and I hope u enjoy. I sure did. THanksagain F.Fingers
Hi Mike, glad to see that you back! I knew that you would like the HUM as much as I do. Next time you’re here on the other coast, come by the house and we will sample the Juliet and the Firecracker. Thanks for your kind words buddy!
Hi Morgan, The top five most noted weeds I have smoked over the last couple of years are..
1) Trainwreck
2) Mr. Nice SSH
3) Heaven x UM
4) DJS Flo
5) Sensi Hash Plant
Over the winter I will be growing REZ Petrol, Sensi G13 x HP, TRC Blue 13, Soma Buddha’s Sister, a cross of SER AK47xHUM, plus a few others including Who’s Y’ Daddy and JLP’s G-13 backcross.
I have one DJS Flo, just picked one last night for that matter. It is the best tasting reefer I have ever met! Mine looks like the one JLP has pictures of, very low yield. I'm not sure about the buzz yet.
I found the skiing to be poor in Florida so I moved back north.
I'm currently growing: (this is a memory test, feel free to ignore)
AK47 from Jordan of the Islands
Big Mac from Federation
Bermese x Fuckin' Increadable from Federation?
C99xHaze from JLP
Flo from DJ Short
G13 from local cutting (haven't bloomed it yet)
G13b2 from JLP (haven't bloomed it yet)
HxUM from JLP
Jack Herrer from Nirvana
Pluton 2 from ??? (recently available again)
Phoenix from JLP (haven't bloomed it yet)
White Widow from Nirvana
Top ratings go to the Nirvana Jock and the Big Mac. Can't beat the Big Mac for everyday smoke.
I need another taste test on the HxUM. I smoked a couple of hits last night and don't remember anything after!
peace, love and where ya going to move when Florida submerges?
Busted out another of my remnants from JLP this spring. I had six seeds left from this batch a decade ago. All but one flowered, three were female. As vigorous and healthy as I remembered. Killed my cuttings I took, though. I have to redesign my fish tank stone in a plastic tub design to keep the leaves a bit more clear of the water.
I'm going to harvest within a week and will try to reveg, then take more cuttings.
