Bogglegum - BOG Seeds (0.92p Harvest)

I started these seeds on December 6, 2018. Planted directly into Oasis cubes. All seed packs were purchased with 10 regular seeds. Fortunately the seed packs of Bogglegum, LSD and sweet Cindy had 14 seeds. The blue kush came with an outstanding 16 seeds. I will continue to keep the oasis cubes moist until I eventually transfer to 3” pots, then when I start to figure out males from females ill move them to 1gal pots. Eventually these should fill in the 5gal pots under scrog nets.

Nothing to report. Still using water only. Girls are coming along. A couple seed stragglers. Will report final numbers in a week or two, once all seeds have been given 14days plus.

Nothing to report. Still using water only. Girls are coming along fine started using very diluted nutrient solution at 1/4 strength. For now im just stealing pales from my main resivour as I'm only watering once a week at the Moment.

So the numbers are in, for the Bogglegum 9 of the 14 seeds germinated. Now to watch for male vs females.

Still vegging the girls. Using an equal parts of the grow, bloom and micro.

Week 6 is midway through, I still have some of the smaller plants in a cloning area, while bigger ones are under a 400w mh. As I find males amongst the females I will remove and hopefully eventually gain the space I so desperately require, eventually moving all of the LSD and Bogglegum plants together under the same lights. Lucky there is light at the end of the tunnel, ive already discovered 3 sweet Cindy and 1 blue kush males. I expect to find around 50% males as they mature.

Nothing of interest to report. Waiting for sexes to show

Still checking the group for males. They are all under one 400w light.

Slowly transitioning the girls into the 1000w room. Transplanted into 5gal buckets with straight perlite. There are 8 females remaining.

Been a crazy week. Inside this area I had a total of 9 bogglegums, ive been watching for males and while I was cloning I found a HERMIE. It's a little unsettling as I've read reviews about this strain having these traits. Also found a few males as well. I'mdown to 4 Bogglegum and they are all females. I've seen no other plants with male and female balls in the other genetics. A side from that I've redone my tent (Blue Kush Journal) and Cloned all my girls, ready for another week of vegging and then if everything looks big enough I'll be flipping the cycle. I've scarecrowed the girls and picked ~30 tops (6 per plant). Everything is looking great and because I've done the technique before, I trust that it will not fail me. Removed very minimal lower fan leaves. From here on out I will no longer be removing fan leaves, and choosing instead to remove sucker branches that stray from the main stem by more than 2 inches.

Bogglegum has delayed the rest of the areas. After suffering a setback of 2 more males, and a hermie pheno, ive replaced pots with straggler genetics I intended on culling. Lucky for me, I have a soft spot for the weak. I've been nursing these back and trying to get them as big as possible. Before the flip. Cut off is for sure next week for the flip, but if things improve there is a shot I'll flip earlier.

Started flowering these on March 7. Not much to report. I will start the scarecrow technique once per week for 2 - 3 weeks.

Start of Week 2 flower. I've been slowly making my rounds cleaning up any branches that are straying from the main colas. Going forward im going to try a new technique, when trimming the straying branches for the next week I'll only remove everything after that branches first bud site, leaving on 1 node.

Start of Week 3 Flower I went around to all the plants and did. The final trim of sucker branches. These bog strains are really leafy. I can tell that the lower sections are going to have reduced light. So I removed the lower 1/3 of fan leaves as well. Its nice to see the different pheno types emerging from the plants, some of the girs are 8-12" taller then the surrounding.

Basically coasting from here. Plants look healthy and everything is going as expected. Will report if anything changes.

Plants are really starting to fill out. The bulk continues.

Another group of girls. The smells are getting pretty potent. Not sure if there is going to be a keeper from this net. But never say never until the end. Some could be slowly bulking down low, but its hard to tell because the canopy is pretty dense.

Bogglegum had some rough roads at the beginning. Things are really stacking on the remaining, and maybe, just maybe I'll find a possible keeper.

I'm going to start a flush tomorrow. Scoped the plants and the majority have cloudy trichomes and some are starting to go amber. I figure most will have Amber by the harvest day in a week or less.

Very interesting growth. Plant stretch is minimal, so make sure they are the size you want before the flip. THC is all over the place with a 15%,16% and 18% on the different plants. Based on a 5 person panel the average rating for the look and smell was around 8/10. Nice looking very red haired version presented on one strain. I will also mention again that I did get a hermie at the beginning which I killed off. Honestly with the hermie aspect, poor stretch, odd growth and subpar smoke I probably wouldn't waste my time. I'll try one more grow of the 18% version down the road.
