This is a pheno hunt, I will explain why I'm looking for a male and possibly another female. I crossed a male Gorilla Cookies to a female Seedsman Blueberry a few years ago, so F1 seeds. I have hunted this strain so far with 5 phenos (UNO, Dos, Tres (Bratz), Cuartro (Carol), Cinco-(Falda) which is currently in flower and 5 seeds for this pheno hunt will be (Seis, Siete, Ocho, Nueve and Diez) I will nickname them when the time comes. So far, the only one I have kept is Tres (Bratz). So Bratz is my favorite one so far, she is a trooper, she can handle high heat, she is a hungry plant, she doesn't grow too tall but she is a heavy yielder. The stem rub is strong like Kool Aid Blueberry. She does get sticky with very small amount of purple and the aroma is of Nerds. Brat buds smell really spicy with a faint hint of sweet and when you open the bud the smell isn't really strong. The smoke is a creeper, it tastes of a small hint of berries, very relaxing and enjoyable. Ok.. Now I said all of that to say this...I'm looking for a stronger blueberry scent and more terpenes. I want to find a strong male to create F2s with Bratz and if I find a similar female that is better than Bratz I want to make those F2s as well.
-5 Seeds germinated on 4/1/23, paper towel method with Distilled water
-5 Seeds sprouted tap roots on 4/3/23, Seeds were placed into red solo cups with Bio All Soil in soup containers with lids slightly open and sprayed with filtered water.
I have pictures up now.
Looks like all 5 are completely sprouted !
First week of flower. They were moved to the flower tent in the beginning of the week. I water them every day. I had problems with the temperature in the beginning of the week but got another AC Infinity fan so now the temperatures are steady 77 degrees with a humidity close to 50. I am waiting for the one unknown to show sex , one confirmed female Shiori and three males. Will update if any changes happen.
Regular growing in the second week. No nutrients yet. Daily watering. Can't wait until they take off. Thanks for checking out my pheno hunt. More pictures taken.
Still in veg stage. Thinking about transplanting when I move one of my few Mom plants out of this tent. Transplant to 3 gal fabric pots possibly next week or so.
The growth is similar to the other phenos in the seed batch. I will be transplanting into 3 gal containers. I don't know right now of what medium to use in the containers this coming week. The funky looking one is starting to grow better, you know what they say about the funky ones (they turn out to be fire) but we will see.
I was able to transplant each of the plants successfully. I'm starting to see slight differences in each pheno. I can't wait to flower them, hopefully with in 2 to 3 weeks. There is no smell yet and I have not remembered to do a stem rub. I hope to get some clones off each plant but will wait.
Ok week 6. So putting my eyes to the plants and found out that, we have 1 confirmed female. I named her "Shiori"! There is one unknown sexed plant and three (mostly) confirmed males. Shiori was the one I wanted to be female due to her indica leaning leaves. I will take some cuts of Shiori before I flip.
Sunday update...
I decided to put these plants in the flower tent with their sister (Falda) who will be harvested in a few weeks.
Depending on which male shows some vigor, I might keep his pollen to possibly create f2's to pollinate three females (Bratz, Falda and Shiori)
Wish I could document all the grows I have going on right now but it's alot.
Sunday update:
I decided to move the five plants into one of my flower tents. Shiori was cut for clones (4), the rest weren't cloned because of assumptions of 3 males and 1 unknown still. Another AC infinity oscillating fan was added to the tent they are in. More updates soon.
Sorry for the wait. So three males were cut , two males were used to collect pollen, they are currently drying to be processed at the end of the week. I used female pollen (Falda) to pollinate a branch on each female plant (Shiori and Shiloh). Was just using water last week but back on the nutrients this week. Plants will bounce back.
The two that are left Shiloh and Shiori are packing on the buds. I also added female pollen to one branch on each plant of their sister Falda still in the tent to see what I get. Shiloh smell is pungent and Shiori's smell is Fruity.
This was a bad weekend for the plants, I went away with the family. The plants were struggling, most leaves fell off but watered heavily when I got back. They bounced back after watering and defoliation.
Well all I can say that there is one plant doing well. Shiloh is the survivor. Shiori is still growing some but I am keeping her going so the seeds can develop (Shiori x Falda).
So the last one remains. The ups and downs of this grow have been crazy. I was able to get seeds from Shiori (Falda x Shiori )in breed seeds from the same cross. I was able to get pollen from the two males I named Fruity and Funky (due to their smell). Shiloh is getting close to being finished, maybe a week or two.
I was only left with one plant but was able to get seeds from each female plant and pollen from the two chosen male plants. I must admit that it was a struggle to document this but I will be more organized next time. Thank you for following, if you did.
