Week 8 update - alls good. They started showing a little paleness earlier in the week so we amped up the bloom nutes a touch. Also started mixing in some terpinator. Haven’t yet really benchmarked it’s usefulness (if any) but hopefully it’ll contribute to better terp. Production. The FFT5 is growing pretty strangely and she’s generally droopy unless you’ve caught er right after a feed. That said, she’s still stack’n nicely so all good there. The sherbet is gonna be a pretty plant I think, the profile and stability of the strain seem flawless and she’s very easy to diagnose when needing something more. Textbook👌. The runt is doing its thing. True to the Skywalker genetics this thing is so ridiculously nitrogen deficient. For some reason this strain just can’t get enough from about mid-flower to harvest🤷. We’ll figure out how to supplement that some how on the next run. Don’t really care - we’ve probably got mature seeds already and even trichs are forming out on this pregnant little lady.
Thanks for swing’n in - prettty part will be starting soon👍.
Background
This has been coming for awhile and I even killed half an auto cycle just to finally get to it.
A 5 strain, 14 plant micro run. All done in 1 gallon smart pots. I’ve got a sprinkle of fast flower fems (shout out to BudXs for that FB Tester👊) and some of a prized outdoor grow from 2019 that happened to catch a little pregos and yielded a small amount of seed.
No idea what the quality is like and only way they’ll be usable at all is if I can run Em back against the parent. The primary goal is to test the waters on some primo 707 and Skywalker cultivars in the hopes that we can pull out a couple of males for pollen collection. From there and on the next cycle through, we’re gonna run a bunch more of each in an effort to backcross and stabilize out some viable seed with a select few females. The end game is to use the pollen from that generation to hopefully blend some wacky hybrid from within BW’s existing seed collection🤷. This process can take awhile so it’ll be a long time come’n. In the end, I’ve got my heart set on some perfect combinations that’ll be straight fuck’n 💣. It’s gonna be worth the patience👍😎👍. Never thought I’d say this but.... Let’s pray for some balls mofo!!!🤞
@DreamOn, gonna need it homie👊. If half the grow is a success it has a 50/50 chance of ruining the other half of the grow🤣. Should be interesting at least🤟👍 lol
@Smokwiri, lol! Shoulda figured that lol. And yeah - got a couple ideas for some hybrid crosses. When I get to that point I’ll prolly reach out to a few people just to run some test grows for feedback. Realistically though, I’m looking to back cross and ensure stability (and more seed) in these 2 strains first. Well see how it goes but I figure about another 2 cycles before I have a stable hybrid to share with people. I’ll keep ya in mind if ur interested😉👊.
@Miss_Greenthumbs_Garden, lol - already done. Now just wait’n on these quick flowers to finish so that we can move along to crossing hybrids👍. I’ll be flush with multiple F1 strains in about 6 months and if u see anything that strikes ur fancy just DM me and I’ll send ya some👍👊😎
@Smokwiri, cheers dude! It’s a pollen hunt so feels like a bit of a wasted grow. But gotta start somewhere and this was really the only time of the year available. Thanks for take’n a look and hopefully it doesn’t disappoint.👊
@UKPersonal420, thanks very much🙏! His/her progeny have actually just gathered and made new babies with another fire strain so we’re obviously very happy with the journey this far👍
