Okay, So this is the GenePool Jamboree :-)
Unidentified Free Seeds from MSNL (possibly Aurora) + Premium Mix M&F + 1 Big Bud Auto Fem + 1 Gorilla Glue Fem
Grow Goals: Produce quality seeds for personal consumption and future testing. Create some variety for the upcoming winter. Clear the shelf of unknown & unmarked seeds.
The intent is to allow the males from the premium mix to pollinate the females, in so doing they'll produce some good seeds to use for future personal projects and consumption.... Granted I will never know the true pedigree, but I do know for certain they are all high quality strains. So around my farm this batch is hereby dubbed GenePool Jam.
Starting with 14. Thirteen have sprouted and have shown excellent growth during this first week. By week's end, I have removed them from the 24 hour light booth, and into the main tent. On the seventh day, I put them under a 1000W LED light at a 18/6 schedule.
Water only at this stage.
The Unknowns and the Gorilla Glue look amazing and are growing very well. The big bud auto and the premium mix are progressing nicely about a day or two behind the rest. The 14th of 14 is below ground. It has germinated, nice tap root, just has not made it to sprout stage yet.
Should be a fun project. Looking forward to it.
All I can say is wow. I wonder what happened here with your big bud. I did one earlier this year. it was a monster. I used about 430w on it and got 9 oz dry. I am in coco. If you do another one and think of it. Could you tag me in please. I am just starting another one now. Should be about a week before I start a journal here. My goal will be for at least 10 oz this round. The BB was only the 3rd plant I had ever grew. I am thinking maybe you just got a bad seed. I am going to try a scrog top this time. I also started using the an bud ignitor. My bud sites have about doubled in size on the 2 plants I have used it on. Once I get my journal for my BB going. I will tag you in. It looks like you are doing a great job growing 👍
@justright, On this grow, we were just growing seeds, so the flowers did not have a lot of vegetation, but the BBA did produce a lot of seed... Which was promising for me on a different level... Meaning: I grew BBA earlier this year and was disappointed by the yield... As that first plant started to finish, I realized the yield problem was me.... I had super cropped an "auto-flowering" plant... Which screwed up the density of the flower.... affecting the yield...
On this grow, the BB really did great, it's just that the flowers were full of seeds (as they should) - leaving not as much meat on the bone.... so to speak... I was real happy overall...
I have a couple of CBD runs to make, but I am certain I'll back around to BBA at some point - I can certainly tag you then... 👍
@MSNL_Seeds,
Thank you...After having a couple plants hermaphrodite and one grow accidentally got seeded. I figured it was about time to intentionally create some seeds 😀
