Hey everyone!π We are back with another cultivar / breeder to experiment with - this time we are going with Emerald Triangle Seeds - San Fernando Valley OG x Royal Purple Kush. I'm looking forward to this grow for the sheer fact the SFV OG is an all-time favorite - piney diesel cones that taste like citrus and make your mouth water - literally. I was able to sample some of this while on my trip to California and getting it "from the geographic source" was absolutely amazing. I couldn't feel my face after half a gram into a 1 gram pre-roll that come in a bougee test-tube, corked with a single match inside the tube with strike...mind you, this was pure SFV OG - little goes a loooong way. This breeder I'm interested in sampling more of since Californian breeders seem to have pretty stable genetics thus far. This was germinated for 18 hours and got half inch tap roots from being soaked in damp paper towel/ziploc bag method - in soil September 23rd - pictures are 6 days in. Some more info about the cultivar below:
Genetics: San Fernando Valley OG X Royal Purple Kush
Indica/Sativa: 70/30
Stature: Large
Harvest: Harvest mid β late September
Yield: Medium-High
Ratio: CBD 1% β THC 22%
Thanks everyone!πβ
@CannaScuzzyB, You can thank CSI Humboldt for making S1 TK seeds.. I know eventually he'll do an S2 and then probably a BX1 and probably a BX2.. that guy is amazing. He'll help it flourish. Anyway.. looking forward to see how your grow turns out!
@StunFlower, Thanks buddy - hope all is well! They've really bushed out and got the tent all cleaned up. New carbon filter fan since the other one broke, had to move the babies to fill each side out (more so get them away from one another touching as they're bushy) and put the trellis netting up and will move down incrementally each week. π
Beautiful Christmas trees you've got there π A tasty harvest is a great way to ring in the new year! All the best to you and your girls during the holiday season, buddy! ππ¨
@StunFlower, The mass is real - never witnessed this sort of mass so early on in flower. I got another couple weeks to go but amazed at the progress. Couple of the colas are already the thickness of my forearm - so I can just imagine the end product. Definitely! - come to the salad bar ma man π
Keep a close eye on the strange lady, as long as you are not seeing any balls or bananas, you should be ok. Could be genetics, difficult to say. To me they look like females, not much out of the ordinary. Also not seeing the crown thing you are referring to, can you mark it on a picture what you mean? But its looking good for week 3 indeed! Keep it up!
@CannaScuzzyB, Thank you for the thorough explanation , I saw the pictures but I did not see anything that strange. By now either balls with pollen or bananas with pollen should have appeared if it were a hermie, trying to fertilize the producing flowers. Seeds will grow in your flowers usually, not where you pick the bud. I think its a normal calyx from a female plant if you ask me. Curious to see how they have grown! Good luck!
@Corks_Crew, hey man! - yea it's definitely strange (the pics are marked with the name "hermie?!") - but i've seen keeping a close eye on things for sure. I'm not seeing any sort of bananas and in terms of balls, I only see the calyx's that have the white hairs coming out of em. There is an oval shaped ball that i've been pushing against (no seed in there for sure) but I've seen that sort of calyx on other grows post harvest. You know when you pick a bud off the stem and there's that little nodule that looks like a nipple? They are definitely getting hairy and will be posting new week picture soon. They've definitely gained quite the mass and the stretch seems to have slowed down. I've had to tie some of the branches to the net as I'm noticing by the day the weight is real. Overall, I would expect to see bananas by now considering were just at the tail end of it growing in flowering (30-35 days roughly) - then its full on reproduction. Getting stinky as well and already getting frostyππ
