Hello fellow growers! This is my first forum post, so please allow me to introduce myself: I'm 39y old, growing for 10y now in various set ups from soil with HPS lamps to hydroponics with LED stripes. I like to play pool-billiards, poker and chess (feel free to ask me for a game on chess.com or lichess!). Made a 2y break from growing and now I'm finally "back in the game" to share with you my journey from seed to harvest! I really like to get 2-5 "killer phenos" for my next grows, so let's go hunting! So I germinated the first seeds about 10d ago. From 40 seeds 38 popped up and are now healthy young ladys. Here are some pics.... see: WalterWeed's Pheno Hunt ...and a list of every strain: 4x Bruce Banner Fast - Original Sensible (Colorado Ghost OG x Strawberry Diesel x Black Domina) 4x Gorilla Glue F1 Fast Version - Sweet Seeds (Gorilla Girl x Sweet Gelato Auto) 3x Critical Kush - Barney's Farm (Critical x O.G. Kush) 2x Kalashnikov Express - Kalashnikov Seeds (Kalashnikov Original x Secret Hybrid) 2x Critical Neville Haze Early Version - Delicious Seeds (Critical Mass x Neville Haze x Ruderalis) 4x Berry Bomb - Bomb Seeds (Blueberry x Bomb 1) 2x Crystal Candy F1 Fast Version - Sweet Seeds (Crystal Candy x Sweet Special Auto) 2x Eleven Roses Early Version - Delicious Seeds (Eleven Roses x Ruderalis) 3x Delicious Candy Early Version - Delicious Seeds (Caramelo x UK Chesse) 3x Jamaican Dream - Eva Seeds (unknown) 5x Cash Express - Zamnesia Seeds (Power Bud x Skunk) 3x Caramel Auto - Zamnesia Seeds (Sweet Caramel x Ruderalis) - will stay in the veg. tent All of the strains have a flowering time of only 6-8 weeks according to the breeders (so more like 7-10w in reality) and most of them yield quite large. I also added some US genetics to get some high THC strains and with the Jamaican Dream i even have an almost pure sativa (90% sativa and a flowering time of only 6-7w). 2 cents about my veg. setup: 1m x 1m x 2m tent, 315W CMH light, 420 m³/h exhaust, 70% Coco/30% Perlite. Atm they get a nutrition solution of tap water, osmosis water, a tiny amount of Canna Coco (to get to 0.8 EC), some Canna Rhizotonic and finally i adjust the PH to 5.8. In about 8w the plants will be transferred to a larger flowering tent (2,4m x 1,2m x 2m) which i will introduce in later posts. Will update this thread about once a week, so stay tuned!
Poker??? Did someone say poker???? Oh, HELL!!!!!! You wanna play poker??? I'm in for a game, or two, or three! My dad was a gambler. I was raised around a thoroughbred track and then later, a standardbred track. Trotters and Pacers. And I don't know what it is but I LOVE playing the ponies. Hey! I was raised around a race track here in the heart of Kentucky. And I usually have good luck with the ponies
Lol, i see a true gambler here^^. Unfortunately I don't play online poker anymore. Back in the good old days before black friday event i used to play a lot on different sites. Nowadays I only play live poker with friends once a month.
Maybe I'm too stupid, but I still can not post pics directly to the thread. Pics with my phone are in .jpg and somehow this forum doesn't accept this format. So I have to take a pic --> upload to PC --> convert to .png ---> upload to my album. And the converted pics are still too big to post directly in this thread... Here is the link to my album btw.: WalterWeed's Pheno Hunt What's interesting is, that the "super-inbreed" F1 strains have shown the best growth so far, see close up 1 (a week ago) and close up 2 (yesterday) in my album. The larger plants are now getting 1.1 EC and the smaller about 0.95 EC. Overall I'm happy with this start! Not much else to say, things will get more interesting when the plant training begins and the plants get transferred to their final flowering setup. cheers!
Welcome friend, Posting photos can be a challenge sometimes, then other times is a piece of cake. Most times I get the photo into the post by using the “upload a file” button below the green “Post Reply “. If that’s not working I will copy a photo from my photo library and pasted it into the post. Occasionally neither works and I come back to it a little later. Blue’s Small Shed Grow
Thanks for the advise and also thanks for sharing your thread! YOUR MOM IS A PIECE OF ART! Never thought about having a mother plant with multiple strains, but it totally makes sence. The goal of this pheno hunt is to keep 4-6 strains. So now I can keep one large mother with 4 strains or two with 2-3 strains each!
Yeah! It works! What u see here btw. are 10 certificates from the cannabis training university. A bit proud of myself, because i passed the 12 week course in just 13 days with a 97% score. Hopefully that helps me a bit to find a job in the cannabis industry in Germany and it will for sure help me with my own start-up which i will found when the cannabis market will open (hopefully 03/01/2024). Will make another post to discuss my buisness idea soon. Sent from my Pixel 6 using Grasscity Forum mobile app
Back to this grow: Plants are doing well so far. Because I had some space left, i decided to germinate 5 more Auto's (3x Runtz Auto from Zamnesia Seeds and 2x Gelato from Zamnesia Seeds). In about 12-17 days I will transfer the photoperiodic plants to my hydro system. Before that I will top all plants and maybe doing some more training (haven't tried mainlining yet, might give it a shot with 1-2 plants). The 8 (together with 3x Caramel Auto from Zamnesia Seeds) Auto's will obv. stay in the small tent until harvest. Also i killed the first plant, which was a Critical Kush with a very unusual growth. Pics in the next post, because it somehow doesn't work again.... Sent from my Pixel 6 using Grasscity Forum mobile app
How stupid is that?! I can only post pics here after I edited them. So it worked with the previous post where i blacked my name and it didn't work with unedited pics last post. Here it works again, because I added a small white dot in the lower right corner of every pic. At least I know now how to post pics here, lol. Sent from my Pixel 6 using Grasscity Forum mobile app
Wow, nice certificates. Looking forward to following you project. Good luck in the cannabis trade. There is a need for good detailed growers, which is why I grow my own. Very high standards. The uploading of photo can be a challenge at times. I have 3 ways to upload a photo to this forum. 1. Always try the “upload a file” button 1st. 2. Cut and paste from your phone library. 3. On the computer pick and drag the photo from your photo library to the screen then to your post in the forum. sometimes you may not have any success, and should try later. Might be related to high upload traffic across the forum.
I already saw this picture lol but again I see it wondering why it looks like it has a big 4 point leaf in your hand?
It's a mutant. Very strange growth overall, no side branches. So it was the first plant which got removed.
