K Train (Regs) & Mataro Blue Grow (SOG)

So I wanted to start a journal earlier but never got around to it.

The K-Train is in it's 7th week of flowering and the Mataro Blue is in it's 4th week.

Here's the lowdown:

Light: 400 watt MH for veg/ 600 watt HPS for flower

Medium: Soil (Mixture of my own compost, peat moss, perlite, vermiculite, kelp meal, jersey greensand, and garden lime)

Nutrients: My own compost tea with Root's Organics Budha Grow, Budha Bloom, Trinity, HPK, and Extreme Serene to supplement.

Strains: K-Train from Greenhouse Seeds and Mataro Blue from Kannabia Seeds.

I took the plants out of my grow box to try and get some decent pictures.

Nothing really looks good under HPS light

Hot Dam!!! Looks like fire. Love the sig. Leave me alone, I'm legal. I feel that! Im in Michigan and they are screwing with people man...i never heard of that Mataro Blue what is the strain lineage? oh yeah subbed to this top shelf gro op.

Ok just looked up the Mataro. I just sprouted some Kannabia Special. That is what they called this free bean they sent me. Also their power skunk. Well see. Have you grown Kannabia before? Have you grown Greenhouse and do you see large differencr between quality/stablity of higher priced beans?

The only other Greenhouse strain I have grown is The Church.

That was a badass strain and I hope the K-Train will be too. The one thing about the K-Train is that the clones I have tried ALL turned hermie! I tried to clone them 3 times using my Aero cloner and in straight dirt with cloning gel, same results every damn time. I have heard that GH Seeds can be a little unstable and I would agree based on this. The plants you see here were originally going to be mothers but I put them into flower, they have not shown signs of male flowers so far (keeping fingers crossed).

I have a Mataro Blue mother plant and this is my second grow from her clones.
Awesome strain that smells almost exactly like Fruity Pebbles cereal when finished

Day 59 and the K-Train is looking really crazy! Nice Chocolate/ Red/ Purple colors coming through

Looking even better than #1











Mataro Blue is coming in Nicely as well and will probably have updates on my 10 SOG Girlz.....

I have to say that these K-Train girls have given me major problems as far as cloning goes and the fear of Hermies but as far as the final product is concerned...

A+

They are incredibly stinky, taste amazing, and are 100% the Kind!!!

If you grow this strain, don't even think about cloning it, 3 times I tried and ALL Hermie!

Oh yeah...

Plant #1: Dried for 8 days and Cured for 4:



This is about 1/2 of the plant, fills a full quart mason jar to the top.

Decent yield but I would not say great. Quality is GREAT
