RGS Outdoor Compitition - Freezeland IBL, Mighty Freeze, Whitey Freeze, GG#2

[Tahoe22]

Planning on selected a few best performers here and polinating those with female pollen. Hopefully end up with some good strains for around here

thats awesome man im sure you will, got a good feeling about it. best of luck my friend do you store the fem pollen or?

We can get some good frosts as early as 3rd week of September. The fall rain comes around same time.

more power to you man, sounds kinda harsh.. do guys around your way typically plant out around same time every season or are some a lot shorter than others? got couple buddies that are still US but neighborhood basically right below yours and still cold in june around their parts so can only imagine how short your season can be.. again more power to you man and best of luck this season

Thanks Tahoe,
Yes I'll probably have to store some pollen, I just sprayed my two selected females with STS yesterday. Will put them under 12/12 this weekend. So I'll hopefully have pollen before the others are ready for it. Probably can't put my girls out for another 7-10 days, nights still going down to 3-4 degrees Celsius.

Little update on progress. Girls are getting eager to go outdoors, I'd say they're tired of small pots and artifical light.

Weather is supposed to get better next week so hopefully I can transplant them into their summer home.

Here's a bushy Mighty Freeze, these have the strongest lateral branching.

And the freezeland bush.

 

[Hillbilly69]

Here's the double toped freezeland, the stems on this one are already sticky and smell wonderful! I have high hopes for this lady!

 

[Hillbilly69]

The fat leaf freezeland, this one has a sticky stem too.

 

[Hillbilly69]

Here's a smaller mighty freeze, can see the early strong branching on this one also.

 

[Hillbilly69]

And finally a GG#2, I've selected this one to be my pollen donor.

 

[Hillbilly69]

Have some whitey freeze that just popped ground last week, 100% germ. Will get some pics of those once they have a few sets of leaves.
Summer season is almost here on the east coast!!

Nice work…. Looking like they will be strong trees!

 

[Hillbilly69]

Hey folks, been a little while, I've been crazy busy with spring landscaping and dealing with other issues. So my ladies have been neglected more than I would like. I was late getting my organic soil mix done so it hasn't had the chance to "cook" yet, so not many nutrients available right yet. Been hot and dry so looking for rain to get the microbes going on the organics. I use kelp meal, soybean meal, alfalfa meal, bone meal, feather meal and dolimitic lime. Also throw in a little chicken poop in the mix and use mushroom compost for microbes. At least I got them outside but they are fending for theselves for now, until I get all my other work done.
Here's a few pics of the ones close by.

This is my smaller Mighty Freeze, she decided to auto on me, thinking she got root bound and didn't like it. Was going to throw her out but decided to just plunk her in the ground and let her go. No special treatment for this one so we'll see how she does.

 

[Hillbilly69]

Heres the bigger bushy mighty freeze getting used to her new environment. Hoping that organics will green them up a bit when we finally get some rain.

 

[mr.brunch]

They are coming along beautifully
Lovely stuff

 

[Hillbilly69]

And the bushy freezland IBL doing its thing. This one is showing signs of the stress from being root bound and under lights for way too long.

 

[Hillbilly69]

They are coming along beautifully
Lovely stuff

Thank you sir! I'll be happy when I have time to give them a little more TLC

 

[Hillbilly69]

And final one for now, the double toped freezland. I put this one close by in a 30 gal container. I'll be training this one pretty hard to see how she bushes out. You can see all the holes on the side of the container to tie down branches. Showing her stress from being in a small pot for too long too. That's changed, got lots of leg room now.

 

[Hillbilly69]

Whitey freeze are finally in their outdoor pots. Looking better than others, the key is to not start them too early I guess. Beautiful ruged stem on a few of them.

DAY 55 Update

Heres the Mighty Freeze, we've had cool and wet weather over last 6 days, down to 8 degrees in the day. That slowed things down a bit. But got the watering they needed and organics are starting to kick in.

 

[Hillbilly69]

DAY 55 for the bushy freezland IBL. These should take off once the sun comes out.
