Hello. This is the end of week 2 and the beginning of week 3.
Things are going smooth this week. The plants are stretching. and getting ready to go into flowering. You might see in the pictures a few burnt leaves. With the stretch and the light over some leaves touched the light. I had to tie back Plants #1,2,4 and5. Plant #3 is still recovering from some sort of root thing and looking a little weak but still going into flowering.
Seeds have been giving me a hard time this week. I usually start seeds for my next diary when I take clones. So I started some Honey Bananas from Elemental Seeds $85 Can. and with all my efforts I got 1 out of 6 seeds grow. The rest rotted despite my best efforts. So I started 5 seeds of OG Kush from Sensible Seeds and free with my order. And I struggled with them and they all rotted. Bummer๐. I'm trying to grow indicia's these days for the sleepy effects I need, so I went back to my seed vault and dug out some 4 year old seeds to try and start. They are The White by Dr Greenthumb a Canadian seed breeder. I've tried some strains from him in the past and was only moderately pleased with his stuff. I tried Big Laughing (not very strong and very stretchy), Oh! Zone (silly name and a big difference in height), Turkish Delight (decent smoke and flavor), and Carnage (another silly name, was the strongest but stretchy). The vial I kept these seeds in said 11 fem seeds. I figured in my bad luck with seeds lately and thought I might as well start all 11 and I might get 5 or 6 to sprout and grow. I soak my seeds in day old water with a few drops of Hydrogen Peroxide and a bit of rooting gel for the hormones, and then on to a paper towel for a few days. Well when I took the seeds out of the soak 10 of them had white tips showing and the other one sprouted the next day. So I got 11 seeds in the soil and waiting to see how many will come up. I'm not expecting any to rot because of how fast they sprouted. But that will give my way to many seeds for the amount of space I have to flower. Oh well I'll figure something out later, because I'm very resourceful.
Till next time. Chuck.
Sorry about the tooth, that sucks...on the other hand your plants look great lol, the frost on plant #1 in week#11 is unreal, great job! Happy harvest! โค๏ธ๐ก๐ฑ๐ฝ๐จ
Thanks for the reply โค๏ธ..ill check them out today, I'd really like to get my hands on that Dos Si Dos you're growing... thanks again, happy growing! ๐ช๐บ
@Kitties_and_Colas,No Barneys doesn't ship to the U.S. It's legal here in Canada and they won't ship here? I got these seeds from Sensible Seeds. They ship out of the UK. I really recommend them. They went out of their way to make sure I got my seeds. I didn't buy enough stealth shipping and they bumped me up at no charge. Chuck.
@Poppetnewbie Thanks Buddy. I'm glad you liked the diary. I'll be starting 2 new diary's in a week or so. Honey Banana by Elemental Seeds and The White by Dr. Greenthumb. I think I'll work on my strain in the greenhouse next year and hope to get a good male from the Commerce City Kush regular seeds by Rare Dankness Seeds. Chuck.
@Poppetnewbie, Hi Buddy. That's a great nickname. Thanks glad you like the diary. I have some old seeds I'll try next. They are about 4 years old. I hope they sprout. They are Commerce City Kush from Rare Dankness and are regular seeds. I hope to get a good male for my strain I'm working on. Chuck.
Great review and time taken on it I imagine! Thank you for the best one i have personally read on this site ๐ canโt wait to harvest my dos si dos #33
@@ThePuffingprincess17, Thanks! I try to do a good job, I think I've got a style. I started smoking in grade 9 and I'm over 60 now.๐ A couple of the dos si dos 33 had a narcotic stone to them but over all, they are good and strong. Chuck.
