Two Bubba OG clones at a little over a week when I picked them up. They were pretty weak. Let them recover from transport for three days with just low intensity light. They didn't seem to be doing very well. I transplanted them a couple days ago into fresh substrate, and put them under the Lumenater 2x from Lushledlighting, and kept the light pretty high. Been gradually lowering. Maybe a little to much to early. Got a bit of a droop so raised it back up about an inch or so. We'll see what happens in the next few days.
So, I think I gave them to much light for their first week. I raised to 16 inches. We'll see what happens
They look healthy. Just a little droopy. Pretty much a classic symptom of to high light intensity.
The girl's look great. Happy and healthy. Problem is I'm thinking I screwed up this whole grow with the clones. I started all three strains right off under 12/12. I should have kept them under 18/6 for a couple of weeks. Now I've got short stocky plants that are gonna be real small yielders. The bubba of is only 7" tall, and already in preflower. I called one of my associates, and learned where I went wrong. Starting seeds out 12/12 is much different than clones. Oh well, It's disappointing, but grow and learn.😒
So, these girls aren't gonna yield much at all. I started them under 12/12 right off rip, and screwed up. I'm gonna keep 'em going. They'll probably only get to about 10-11 inches from what I understand. I didn't take into account that clones are really mature plants, and needed time in veg before going to 12/12. Oh well, it's disappointing I made such a stupid mistake, but another lesson learned.
So, they're just little girls, but doing well. They're gonna be just one cola of pure bud. I can live with that!😉 I'm in it for the quality rather than the quantity anyhow. Although, a big yield of quality is always nice too!☺️
The little Bubba OG girls are little.😢 However, they seem to be happy and healthy. They're practically all just one bud. There are a couple little branches on them with buds, but basically just one cola, all bud. The bud is thick and dense, getting all frosty as well. Really nice aroma. It'll be some good smoke!☺️💨
The little Bubba OG girls are getting real close. Buds are frosty, and loaded with trichomes. They're are a few milky ones, but I'd say at least a couple more days give or take. I started the flush using Advanced Nutrients Flawless Finish a couple days ago. So, a few more days under the lights then in the dark room they go.☺️
The little Bubba OG clones went into the darkroom this evening. It took all week to reach about 30% milky and amber trichomes, but man, these little girls are loaded with 'em!😀 Not gonna be any huge yield, but it's definitely gonna be some quality flower.👍 So, I expect to harvest either Sunday night or Monday morning. I don't know, as dense as these buds are, if they'll be dry enough for smoke report by next Friday or Saturday, but we can shoot for it, and hope.😉
So, both of these little girls were pretty much 1 main cola, all bud.☺️ I wish I would've kept them in veg stage for about 3 weeks longer. This Bubba OG is such a strong, good smoke, I would have preferred a much bigger yield. One hit, and you can definitely feel it. The high continues to creep on you eventually winding up in couch lock and/or just knocking your ads out. The buds were dense, and frosty with a flowery aroma. Good taste. Kind of earthy, and a little pungent with that flowery hint to it. Trichomes turned about a week quicker on these girls. I don't know. Maybe because they were smaller, and not as far along as the other strains. Small yield. Great smoke!👍 I'll definitely grow this one again, only under different circumstances. 😉
These girls finished before the other strains. I'm not sure if it was my initial mistake of not keeping them in veg longer or if this strain's just an early finisher. Not a big yield, but high quality flower.
Thanks to GD, and the entire fam for riding with me on this one.☺️
Those sort of indica (middle eastern - se asian indicas) plants tend to flower quick coz of adaptation to environmental pressures. Seriously, they're basically between "sativa" and "ruderalis".
Humboldt sent me some Black D.O.G. seeds, very similar flower structure and look, flowered stupid quick, like within 2 months (and I've recently chopped 10 month old plants that grew through winter into the next autumn.)
Those indica heavy plants tend to be quite bulky (though often short) plants, thick leaves. Usually (imo) a sign of the plants tending to water preservation (smaller surface area for evaporation), so likely plants from a dry area (something like Afghan lineage).
Looks great though hey.
@Nordynllc,
Have you considered regulars and like, just pollinating them?
While I didn't have regular Black D.O.G seeds, it still hybridized well. Bunch of other more indica plants I have too. Their offspring are super. I have like a Thai (if I had to guess)+ Afghan hybrid thing, it looks fucking rad...dangerous even, massive features. Like a typical upright indica sort of structure, but it gets LARGE, and it has enormously long massively serrated thick leaves. Shit, even the seedlings are like monsters compared to other plants. I dunno how to describe, but it seriously looks like it has "gigantism" traits.
Problem is, the previous grow of it was through winter, outdoors, without cover (temps as low as -6c). And the first grow of it, too. First time it was seed fodder (pollinated the fuck out of it entirely), 2nd time I tried to kinda push for flowers (though in winter) but it was so harsh, still very good result considering, but in retrospect I should probably have used it as seed fodder again.
Edit: Oh I found an image of it (I lost a bunch of images), it's gonna look SUPER underwhelming but consider it grew THROUGH winter. I swear of the 1000+ plants I've grown, NOTHING is anything like it. Still sort of young here, like early flowering: https://i.ibb.co/4FDdmMC/IMG-20200910-105922.jpg
Here's a Black DOG I grew, just so you know that I do have perspective:

@sir_isO, hey, thanks so much for checking in, and the information.👍 Absolutely agree with you too. We felt very fortunate to be able to get this strain. They definitely weren't easy to get ahold of. We're actually making arrangements to acquire more. Problem is, we can't get seeds, which we would prefer. So, it looks like we'll have to settle for clones again. They're reliable. No problem there. We just would like to use our own methodology from the start. Hey, thanks again man. Happy growing!✌️
@@Waylate, Thanks so much. ☺️Yeah, they were hard hitting, great quality smoke!👍 We're hoping to have some more clones later this spring. We'd prefer seeds, but not available. The clones are reliable. The provider's ops are clinical.👍 We just have different preferences in nutrients, and techniques, and would like to be able to rock 'em our way right off rip. 😉This next Bubba OG grow will be much more controlled, and productive. Thanks again man. Happy growing!✌️
