LA Peyote Kush - Mars FC-4800 LED

LA Peyote Kush by Seedsman (@seedsman is official profile on GD) Procured from the Grower of the Month Contest, Thanks GD and Seedsman! 63 total days completed 18 long nights completed I planted quite a few of these. 75% germinated and of those the phenotypes are wildly volatile. I've got at least 3 or 4 good plants, though. I'm hoping one of the good ones has a the advertised menthol/minty flavor or even piney... anything along those lines. Like the PSP, i took some 2 more cuttings from a different plant. As flower progresses i could see one stacking up much better than the others. Nice thick stems. Good internode lengths (unlike platinum swabi punch, lol holy fuck is that thing stretching). This will be a sturdy plant with potential to hold some weight. Plant 10-12 of these, if you are looking for a few good plants. They are happy looking, healthy, but just little stumps compared to vast majority of my crop. Definitely have an aroma i can imagine develops into a menthol-like profile. It's a bit different than i've had before, so it should be something new for me to harvest in that regard. I want to make some fem seeds this summer. Flavor and yield will be my top priority. I wouldn't mind 2 minty phenos and some throw-in hybrids to fill the space. I've got some other options panningn out. I really liked the flavor of Buttermilk Biscuits, so that's at least one of pollen donators for 2-3 breeding runs over spring/summer. Can do 1 outside and a couple back-to-back inside. I was a bit worried when flower began, but these really ... blossomed, lol. They are super healthy and happy all throughout the grow room. The runts are a bit worrisome due to congestion and potential for microbes. If you follow my diaries, WPM has plagued me for the last 1 year of grows - even with all new equipment and a new room to use. This run has no hint of it. This further cements my sentiments it was weak, inbred genetics. The same strain/brand was the epicenter of each problem. I think i got a bad batch of Garlic Storm seeds or the seed seller stored them like shit? i don't know but it sucks, because that was one of the tastiest blueberry-flavored plants i've had to date, but it was a fucking dumpster fire evertie i grew it and ruined 3 different crops. Lesson learned -- throw out the trash.. don't try to salvage it. It only ruins everything around it. In future i won't bother with these runts. the only reason they are alive is because i didn't pop enough seeds to cull them. So, they waste space in my grow room with 1/3rd of a proper yield. It wasn't just LA Peyote Kush, but LAPK was the highest percentage of duds. PSP had a clunker and NL had a clunker. 4 or 5 plants... so in future i'll pop 150% of what i need and kill off the extras to ensure a properly filled room. This means getting off teh 20/seed train and making my own. The prices for seeds are a total fucking joke. It is price-gouging no matter what way you look at it. It shouldn't be 3-5-10 packs.. it should be 30-50-100 for the same damn prices, respectively. It's like consumers are so fuckign bad at math they don't even recognize getting ripped off. gladly get ripped off... this is caused by equal parts stupidity and greed. Looks like i do have a little taco-action going... headed to reais lights 2-4" after i am done updating diaries. ______________________________________________________ This diary is sponsored by Mars Hydro.
