RMxTB

Still feeding water + cannazym, planning to add nutrients next week. The leaf pattern reminds me of the mother plant a lot, excited to see what it turns out

Nutrients parts proportions are rough, I used the solution from the bigger reservoir and diluted it with water a bit. All good! Thrips seem to affect only the lower leaves, praying hands for the whole week.

Here one can see how a happy plant transforms into a not-so-happy. :-D

She's one of the biggest of all the crosses I have now and is the most intriguing to me, so she went into the flowering tent this week. LST Experiments, again. I don't expect a lot from myself, so behold and the ugly creature will emerge from this plant :-D

No pistils yet, she's getting used to the new environment, I guess. Also, I'm not bending her to the ground now since it doesn't boost lower branches, I released the wire a bit, but still LST-ing

Stigmas are here, next week is flowering for sure. Still bending her down and exposing lateral branches as much as possible. All seem good. I'm waiting for the stretch

I was bending and breaking branches for the whole week trying to spread them wide. Now she looks like her ribcage is open wide. I'll take full-plant pictures later. Till this moment she mostly looks like her mother EC went out of control at some point as you may see by burnt tips, trying to avoid it in the future :-P I'm giving them far less food than before

All seem good. Broke some branches for the last time this week, no violence anymore, I think. The good news! Whiteflies are all gone because of Encarsia Formosa - black eggs on the last picture are infested whiteflies eggs, and fungus gnats all eaten by the spiders :-D I basically grow in a swamp with this drip turned on all the time, and now it looks like my coco swamp system is getting stabilized :-D

All fine, buds getting bigger despite me fucking up the solution again. It's hot and the EC goes up mostly because of vaporization, I suppose :-P

Seeds in many places :-D Lesson learned (again) - I need to pull the boys out of the box a bit earlier. This time it probably would be RMxTBxWillie Lebanese CBD. I'm eager to see where the genetics will drift, but I certainly don't have enough space to plant all the seeds I'm getting :-D The fan looks a bit dirty, isn't it? XD

She suffers PH swings and heat as the neighbors, and I'm simply waiting for her to finish. Purple hues have appeared, the smell is quite interesting, not exactly resembling any of the parents. Probably too early to judge though

More purple! And some kind of deficiency/nutrient lock - PH swings were insane this week, I'm thinking of cleaning the system, feels like there's some buildup there. Apart from this, the plan is to cut her in two weeks. Probably will start flushing next week

Not a lot has changed visually, more purple hues appeared maybe. Flushing next week and then a cut

Cut on day 6 of flushing since the colors seem pretty ok already. Even with a decent microscope I'm bad at checking trichomes, so fuck it, the plant has been at 12/12 for 10+ weeks, so I suppose I've waited long enough :)

Crossing something is an amazing experience, much recommended to anyone who loves weed. Three lessons: 0) Pull the boys out early! 1) Record and take pictures of which branches and when you pollinate 2) Don't keep different strains males at one time to at least understand which pollen was used :-D
