I started these seeds by soaking them in Oregon’s Only Bigfoot root stimulator. I have turned friends onto this product, and they all swear by it. I’ve named them based on order of appearance from the soil. Ferrigno, Bana, and Ruffalo. I’ll be keeping the most vigorous to be a mother.
Two weeks down. I transplanted on Wednesday. In a couple weeks I’ll let do it again. Transplanting slowed them down, and Ferrigno was the most shocked. I used a heating mat afterward.
I topped them all last night. And gave them very light nutes a couple days ago.
I’ll be transplanting them to their final container once I chop the last two plants in flower.
I Transplanted all 3 Friday, the day before pics were taken. I gave them a half dose of nutes and 1tsp/gal of Bigfoot root stimulator. Even though it had only been a day, they all showed new growth Saturday.
They all three really filled out this week. Bana is the fattest. I’ll be defoliating and flipping to flower sometime soon. I took clone cuttings from each today. No nutes this week. They do well with light feeding. Next watering will see nutes again. Smells skunky in veg. No good for stealth growing. Thank goodness for carbon filters.
I defoliated on Thursday and flipped to flower yesterday. Time to see how much they stretch. Last Saturday I took cuttings from each. I included some pics of how they are doing. They’re going to be adopted out to good homes.
One week of flower down. The stretch has been bearable. They range from 18 to 21 inches. I don’t anticipate any trouble. Just alternating water and food, with a little bit of bloom nutrients at the end of the week.
Two weeks of flower down. The stretch has been slowly continuing. Girls range from 22 to 28 inches.
Pistils are forming. I’ll be defoliating Tuesday or Wednesday. Alternating nutes and water every other feeding.
No updates for a while. I’ve felt awful, but am doing much better. I defoliated mid week. I got some before and after pics, but the recovery pics will be on the next week.
Four weeks of flower down. Ferrigno is the tallest. The other two are shorter. They’re all frosty as all get out! So much time left. I’m glad I kept a cutting of Ferrigno. Temps might get hot, but my new air unit should be here next week. My lights are off from 1pm to 1am, so this keeps the lights out during the hottest parts of the day. I’m really glad I set it up that way. I originally did it just because I had more lights than before.
Collecting frost and getting fat. Like a snowman eating his feelings. ⛄️. Halfway done with flowering. I’m glad I kept Ferrigno for a mother. It’s the tallest, with the biggest buds. This stuff is going to have a kick like a mule. Can’t wait!
Still putting on the frost. The 2 shorter girls are getting orange pistils and look like they’ll mature faster. Ferrigno’s buds are less mature, but bigger! I love everything about these plants. I’ll give a better report on the smell when my cold goes away. I can tell they’re very strong, but I can’t pick out individual scents.
I’ve been dealing with high temperatures in the tent. Some leaves have gotten a little crispy. Outside temperatures have finally decided to cooperate, since I’ve been without air conditioning for the last month of summer. Buds are fattening up. Ferrigno is almost done. I’ll chop at day 63, most likely. The two shorter sisters will go 10 weeks.
The end is getting closer. Everyone is putting on some serious mass, but we’re not there yet. Ferrigno is closest, but still has a week or so, I think. The other two will probably be 11 weeks of flower.
Well, Ferrigno hermied on me. One of the top colas threw a banana, that began to blossom. I gave her the chop at day 69. I’d been planning on 70. Sadly, this was the same plant I had taken as a mother. So I’ve put in an order for RQS HulkBerry, and I’ll give that a try. The other two are not showing any signs of male flowers. Bana will be ready at day 77. Ruffalo will be a 12 week harvest.
Last week for both. I’ll be splitting stems, watering with ice water, keeping them in the dark. All those things that may or may not increase resin production. The Ferrigno is very powerful. I can’t imagine what the remaining two will be like, taking two extra weeks to mature.
Well, it’s the final post before harvest. I split the stems Wednesday, and watered for the last time. Trichromes are cloudy, and just beginning to go amber. I’ll be harvesting Sunday. I can’t freaking wait!
These buds were huge. Harvested Ferrigno at 70 days of flower. The other two at 84. They were all very relaxing, with a decent body buzz. They were very visually stimulating, but not a super energetic sativa. More of the uplifting, creative kind. The taste and smell are incredible. After 3 weeks of curing, the smell of berry hits you in the face upon opening the jar. It tastes like strawberry and...well...kush.
This was a fantastic strain. I wish I hadn’t lost a bunch of harvest pics with my other phone. Oh well. Even though the Ferrigno hermied on me in the last week, it was likely due to heat stress, while my AC was out. I have a clone of her in week 9 of flower, and no problems. Going to take it a week earlier this time. I’ll grow this one again. I haven’t had a Seedsman strain that turned out badly.
@BigDaddyK, i do want to give that a try. I never had the crispy problem until my air conditioning unit went out a couple months ago. Hopefully getting the new one put in tomorrow.
Congrats dude and great weigh! 👌😎Smoke report as well as the knowledge on seedsman is good intel. Got a couple of their beans and been thinking about it🤔. What ya got up next?
@TheBudWhisperer, I love variety. Before I could grow so many plants, I’d get bored with the same 4 strains for 4 months. Especially if one didn’t turn out as expected. I don’t have to hit the dispensary and pay for any variety now. 😂
@Stinkfox, excellent - they're now offering up the GelatOG as a bonus with the Jack Herer. Loved Jack the last time I grew it and the Gelat would be interesting too if I didn't already have a bunch of kush on the line already. Good luck with it dude! Sounds like the wife has a good eye😉. Mine does partake so half the time I got no choice but to agree on what she'd like😂 - all good, variety is the spice of life after all!
@TheBudWhisperer, The Jack was a bonus seed. The others I picked out. I enlisted the help of my non-smoking wife to choose. She picked happy and relaxed, and the SBG for its interesting terp profile. 😆
@Wilstang, Oh wow, thank you for telling me. I was unaware. I entered it in the Seedsman shot cup contest on Instagram. It’s prompted me to get a better camera, and to put more effort into my pictures.
Thats weird, we must lst/defoliate and take pictures in similar ways. My plants at 5/6 weeks look identical to yours. Canopies are getting ridiculously spread out now and im a bit more liberal with removing leaves
@LumberjackBuds, I remove all fan leaves but the two at the top of each cola. Flip to flower. In week 3 I go through and do it again. At least that’s what I do with photoperiods. Autos I do one leaf per day, until I’ve got it about where I want it.
I try not to stress them, lest they stunt or hermaphrodite.
@TheBudWhisperer, I know! I’m so excited! These are frostier than the GG#4 I grew last winter. The one that hermied and impregnated everyone in the tent. Lol. Bagseed: Never again. Bwahaha!
Wow my RQS banner3 stretched from 13” to 48” as of today (day 30) at day 21 she was only 39” I didn’t expect her to grow another 9”. I hope you have high ceilings. 13 to 48 : 15 to 55? :ok_woman:️
@Stinkfox, my tent is 80” nute tank is 8” with a 64” plant and the led on top of the ceiling bars I have like 6” from light to plant. Under the HPS strapped to the ceiling bars a 40” tall plant has 24” from light to plant. Fortunately since she is a fairly low yielder I put her under the LED’s. I never expected a 65% sativa to veg so fast or to stretch so much.
@iMeus, I’ve been looking to switch to some Oregon’s Only Nectar of the Gods lineup, but Fox Farms is cheap and works great. It would cost me a bunch to fully switch, so I just keep going with Old Reliable. 😄
@Seedsman, I’ll be right on it, once all the girls are harvested. Got a couple different phenotypes. I bet the smoke on the one that takes 11-12 weeks is going to be superb!
@Nebula420, Thank you! I wish I could claim credit, but the genetics seem out of this world, so far! Every plant in my tent received the same care, but all three of these are head and shoulders above everything else for frost and size.
