This is HAM this is my strain sorta I can not find any record of anyone else making this cross . It took me this last year to make . this is only the first set of seeds so not the stable finished strain . I have named it for fun after the first Chimp to space . HAM or Holloman Aerospace Medical Base . this is Alien Technology (Prism seeds) X Gorilla Bomb (Bomb Seeds) . the seeds where pulled right out of the plant while in its last week of flush on Monday February 8 2021 . I placed in a cup of water for 24 hours . though the seeds had not cracked I still put right into some Peat not a good substrate to sprout seeds in . it holds to much moisture and packs down far to much . but I had an alternative reason to using straight peat moss and stunting the plants root growth . I didn't want to much before I rinsed them for DWC . I allowed the substrate to dry a little then removed it and seedlings from two of the sprouted coco pots . then I rinsed off in water and put directly into lava rock and mini experimental DWC . so now have two of the 4 in mini DWC experiments and two in Peat with Coco pots . one I put in DWC looks like I over fertilized went a bit heavy on one see what happens one on right in picture
the mothers where very nice plants will add a picture .used Colloidal Silver on Clone of Alien Tec to create Pollen . maybe later I will cross with a cheese and have HAM and Cheese lul . is all for fun I tend to experiment and mess around . has been extremely cold this week so not the best week to start they are growing a bit slow .
seem to be a bit skinny at first now thickening up nice . they didn't like what I did to much Fert to young as well as intentionally stunting root growth for the first 2-3 days then transplanting them by rinsing off in water and placing in Mini DWC experiments stretched a lot first week more then I am used to not sure what to do about this . I have no medium other then the lava rocks . looks like they are starting to come around . not sure I will change water or just put into dirt so they can grow normal experiment is over or not we will decide today February 21 , not fail just needs adjusting maybe
they do not look to good going to put in dirt like stuff once I get home again . decided to try making new buckets . I got some free pails from the local truffle shop , They recycle these all the time . 4" net cup and some Hydro rocks , Its only a 4 watt air pump . I actually purchased an 18 watt one , but its so nosey I refuse to use it lets hope this is enough . tested the old waters PH was way out . thinking bacteria growth or something not sure . hope these bigger pails and top reflectors will help . still seriously thinking of putting in Dirt as just growing so slow its crazy , I know I am just new to DWC or they would be growing faster plus its not a real set up lul .
added a picture of a HAM leaf . I had crumpled them and tossed , into the garbage before I noticed how they looked this was the one in best shape still . its really insane so genetically perfect it covers almost 100 % of the area around it as well as it has increased surface area due to large ridges . I wonder what kind of a monster I may have created oh joy
:) got home and went to work poor Girls hated me at this point but they will love me again . put into Promix HP , 5 gallon cloth pots , removed all but the top 6 branches on both plants . they where a bit stringy due to mal nutrition and I felt a fresh start dirt and heavy trim would bring them around to the plants I want .
part way into the week everything is looking great but need more space and weather is warmer outside . I move everything outside to my 5x5 tent , the camera stops working for a few days but temps are way down 50 C about and humidity is way up 90 % ish the plants still do a nice full recovery and are looking great by next weeks pictures when the camera just starts to work again :)
camera started to work again HAM are middle top and Middle bottom plants , nice little bushes already pulling the 6 branches down with pipe cleaners for an even spread , the sick almost dead one is now number 1 , lights are turned up now from 50% to 100 % on the far lower one from Veggies and 75% on the higher closer one to the Veggies . about 400-420 watts . fans are turned way down to keep some heat in , can see the droop in the plants is a trade off at this stage specially after the transplanting from DWC I feel that the added humidity is better then the extra cold . plus a lot of my veggies are sprouts and like it humid . the older plants can handle it and the temps outside will only increase allowing me to change this sooner then later I hope , on the plus side I can also use this maybe to my advantage . I soon plan to transplant the large two into 7 gallon cloth pots . the high humidity could cause root nodes to form on the stem and lower branches . then if I bury these I should get roots to form , just incase anyone wonders I have a 25 dollar wifi camera and a 30 dollar pack of wifi sockets and 50 dollar 1 wifi dimmer . with this I can see take pictures , turn on or off many things aka a water heater , small water pump with irrigation line to water , my lights and adjust my intake fan the outtake has a computer control and is set to turn on once reaches a set extreme temp or humidity . I am away for work most the time right now . I am not using the water system as the plants due to cold, size, humidity, many reasons are not drinking enough . but I can and later once in BUD will be watering this way once they need water every day or two . so for 100 dollars I can now control my hole room from away on my Computer or Phone like right now and load pictures to my diary . We all can not be home when needed every day but most of us can jump on our phone for 5 minutes .
Had to move and had an over load of work . I am way behind on uploading pictures and I am in the drying phase . the plants get neglected then put outside for a bit as I move and just don't have time . they will start to look pretty upset with me before they go outside . then they stretch a little to much and are then final deleaf and inside nodes removed and put into bud . primo crop probably 1.5 POUNDS FROM THE 4 PLANTS OF STICKY . from the 4 plants will be updating all pictures and weeks over the next few days cheers all
once the plants go outside I have a few pics on phone will update with later . added pictures I had of plants Vegging outside was 3 weeks during the Move
all the plants are way to big at this point for the tent . they had to be put on the ground instead of on raised self draining trays . the tent is outside under a balcony and I could not get control of the humidity all through budding it stayed up around 60-65 % some times going a bit lower . even with a tent just in an outside shed to bud before I was able to control the humidity . but with the tent directly outside and the height of the plants I had a real issue . the Skunk was having a bit of mildue issue and by the end it has reached some of the sugar leaves . rest the plants managed to fend off the mildue other then a tiny bit on fan leaves due to contact with the skunk . normally I would bud these out at about 2-2.5 months after I had allowed them to all get to about 2-2.5 feet wide . I keep my plants low with the training you seen and a wide canopy . these plants ended up much taller then I would have wished due to the extra month of Vegg
90% of all fan leaves removed as well as all lower nodes . nets where placed on 3 of the plants to spread canopy will remove about week 2 of bud once the plants will hold the shape on own but before buds are to big to pull them off .
can see a few mildew spots I Deleaf everything for last time and I use some Neem spray on them all all are happy but the Mildew from the Skunk continues . only it does not seem to resist . is basically none on the other plants other then a tiny spots on fan leaves from contacting the skunk :( ugh this outside inside tent is not working to control the environment , you will get a way larger and easier growing experience if you grow inside in a controlled environment , but if like me life happens some times this is what we have to work with . take the extra time to pull leaves wipe things and just do your best to fight it off if have a suborn plant and the mildew is persisting then consider Neem spray it really is the bomb , but should be used as a last resort and only early in your bud cycle to not risk damage to your crops taste or smell . this stuff does not smell good
at this point the plants are to large and had to be removed from self draining trays so now water is going on the floor of the tent instead of draining outside . the extra month or so of Vegetative growth did not increase my yield if anything it will have decreased it due to plants being to large for the space . Usually I average 200 grams a plant and Veg for 1.5-2 months less . if you have the space and lighting Larger plants will produce more but you can only have a 5'x5' canopy in a 5'x5' tent once your canopy is full you will not increase your yield . canopy coverage is key .
is actually 8 weeks of flowering I just added all the pictures in groups of 7 . have a few more pictures on my phone last day each plant . will add final count but so far the Citrus skunk probably needed 2 more weeks 100 grams , Hulk Berry 150 grams . both the Hams have not been trimmed as of yet but will be the larger of the weight . the Citrus skunk smells so good and is very tasty . the HulkBerry is more earthy not very stinky , did not get the best version but got a good one was decent yield and fast could have cut at 7 weeks and is strong . Ham one was from Mother GB#2 Gorilla Bomb#2 it was much taller and should have been a 10 week so did not reach full potential but is super sticky and has an AlienTec Stink Mixed with GorillaBomb Musk its super stinky not quit as sticky as GB But stronger Then Alien Tec and All the stank and Flavor its a very nice strain . the second Ham is from GB#3 Mother it was a shorter stocky plant and the seed made a shorter stocky 8 week strain . this plant has the biggest buds by far and will be one the larger weights it looks and smells the same as the other HAM but it finished in 8 , due to real life everything was cut at 8 weeks and was not taken perfect care of . the weights are really 99. and a high number rounded up and 150 with low point rounded down . all weights are not including a lot smoked already before final weight and some given away so real weight is a bit higher. All plants left in the dark 24 hours before Cut down . HAM final weight to come , just busy and trimming is slow as we all know :)
after 24 hours of Dark the plants are pulled out pictures are two of each plant right before cut down . will add what plant is what later off to work have a great day :) . my hand is 7 inch's front to back and 4.5 inch wide before my thumb or fingers . that RubberMaid is packed and pushed down trying to sweat the plants to cure them as I trim not have them dry out to much they are placed in that bin after 8.5 days of drying just before the stems snap . will trim a bud for picture today . really wish I could share this smell and taste with you all :)) final weight on HAM plants was 116 and 162 grams I have smoked a good bit already probably close to an OZ at random from both plants Hulk Berry came in at 150 and Citrus skunk was 100 but half of it is garbage due to mildew so is split into two bags one class A other B for Baking in total for this botched run I netted dry bud 528 grams . the plants as you can see went through some ups and downs and were not taken the best care of due to being to busy in real life . still some very quality smoke . will start a new diary and new crop come September October once my outdoor is finished for the year . happy growing my friends . I tend to smoke a lot of weed so the negatives are not something I get from most strains . need another persons opinion about taste and effects and will update with multiple opinions instead of just mine the Breeders
