Hey all!
Bear and Yeag... your respective beans are either full or half siblings, or first cousins, with the same Afghani heritage...I made a couple crosses using both a male and female Afghani Dream x the other parent derived from my own line. The Afghani Dreams were all from the same cross that my friend made. It may be an Afghani Dream F2... whatever it is, it's all Afghan and all purty.

Hey the more the merrier up in Alaska, huh?! Shit I need to get a job up at UAA and move my butt back up to the rugged land.

SativaHAze and c of green I'll resend that email if I can find a draft of it! Or just write back! The other stuff growing that looks funky is dill. It's a little floppy and sparse though... may be one of those herbs like cilantro that just really enjoys being outdoors. And destiny is right! Did your father teach you growing? I've known only a couple people so far for whom growing is a family tradition passed down... and one of them is responsible for those Afghan genetics that have caused such a stir... and he's still just a pup!

Well as for updates, I'm now cloning in rapid-rooters, ambient temps 68 deg F, under humidity dome, mist 2x/day with plain water, dip in Clonex, whole thing on a seedling heat mat ($24 at the farmers coop in town)... anyone want to buy a slightly used ez cloner? LOVING the rapid rooters. Totally loving my new fertilizer guru who bugged me to try them! He's on the boards but I have no fucking clue what user he is! Hee hee. This place is great huh?

Also I am streamlining my operation. With my recent cloning success combined with an influx of great new genetics I'll be decreasing my sprouting rate to only 3 seeds per new strain to guarantee at least one female, and keeping a large collection of mothers.

With this comes an increased need for training so I'll be going with a single-trunk diagonal pattern with branches trained off of it... like the leaf of a fern, but more in 3-d... I have to get my numbers down to a more manageable level.

And with no boyfriend in the picture, I've got more time to do it! Poor guy, he's still calling me complaining that I have the best weed in town... well, funny, because I STILL have a need for a tame electrician!!! :D Works out nice... and actually after a long talk on Christmas day we no longer are sniping over the phone at each other. Phew.

So anyhow a couple of you should check your emails... think genetic archives... Yeag is moving, I'm gearing up for a major construction project that will require untamed contractors and building inspectors poking around...you can see where I'm going.

Um lesse... anything else? Um... since breaking up with The Jeff, I've dropped a quick 5 pounds on my bachleorette diet of omlettes and Mediterranean snack food. Haven't had the cholesterol checked though...:rolleyes:

Things are great.
Life is great.
It's sunny and supposed to snow oer the weekend.
I have more seeds to share soon.
My boss doesn't need me to come in this weekend after all.
My Purple Star plants ALL turned purple, not just half of them as advertised.
I was lucky enough to bump into a frisky ex last night. mmmm..... :D
I got invited to "THE" new years eve party out on Cape Cod.
My tenant isn't moving out until spring, phew.
But he IS moving out, meaning I'll be moving downstairs into my old digs that included a WAY better growing area... with a 12 x 12 climate-controlled flower room...
It just doesn't get much better than this!

when i make an email after a twelve pack i should probably write it down:D

and yes my dad did teach me.He was all organic and all outdoor.unfortunately all the outdoor spots have turned into subdivisions.now i am on that constant look for the new ones.(which is fun so i am not complaining to much:D )
i was kidding about the weird looking stuff(referring to the cannabis):jointsmile:
i can't wait to see this 12x12 room you are going to get going.wish i was around there.i do a little constuction.
i found a guy that is to paranoid to grow in his house and is talking about backing me,so i may be able to afford to get things going pretty soon.just can't decide what a good cut would be for a guy that does nothing but put up some money.

anyway......glad to hear all is good and hope it stays that way for you.
P.S.by the way if you just tell me my email address i remember the password....save you some typing...maybe.

there ya go!
If you have a backer you should consider an 'away' grow... rent a cottage or something... share the workload... share the risk... share the fruits! I would never let someone back me and still use my own home.

Hey Stinky, glad all is well in your neck of the woods. Well, you should of got a line from me by now on the strain preservation thinggy.
It would be nice to have you up at the university, I live right down the street and would probably take a few classes if you were around there.
Hopefully the Yeag will be back up in the spring and who knows, maybe we could get KP up here. We would be a continental American Holland type genetics team, LOL.

hey bear If you have not already thought of it... get some free used gill net it works great for the ~Sea of Green~ method.. i just got some for my monster sativa plant. We will have to meet up this spring. If your into fishing I still have a great river boat and drift boat. I love to float the river and flyfish.

BlueBear

12-30-2006, 06:55 PM

Hey Yeag, that's a good idea with the net. My wife and I both like fishing, her dad is from Kodiac and they live for it.
I have a vision prob, but it doesn't stop me from doing much so we will have to try the fishing session when you get back. You going to be around Homer?

no not homer although one of my family's boats is there. I will be living between soldotna and sterling

01-02-2007, 03:18 PM

Oh cool that's not remote at all!!!!
Hey I like fishing too... I feel left out... I'm actually wearing my sweatshirt from the longliner Alaskan Leader that is registered in Kodiak but runs out of Dutch.
Hey if we do an Alaskan breeding coop we should run it in Dutch Harbor just for the name, tee hee... Wait never mind... crabbers are too nutty and the island is too gossippy...

Okay updates... I have no pics and no time... things are pretty crazy right at the moment and I'll be sort of in and oput for the next couple weeks...

The first Papaya came down at app. 7 weeks. Nice single cola, did not top, seeded her for F2s... had to take her down a mite early because of a pollen problem and I ended up with some unwanted seeds and had to make sure that they were not allowed to ripen and get mixed up with the F2s that were made 2 weeks earlier.

Her sister who was NOT pollinated is still going strong and has another week. I'll reveg her. She smells much stronger and fruitier, and I trained her diagonally without topping. The low branches are strong and have gret buds on them, and the top half of the plant is one big sticky mess of a cola. Very impressed for such an el cheapo strain from Nirvana. She will be a permanent mother in my collection.

The Dueling Thunderfucks are all healthy.
Yeag's MTF is a SICK SICK SICK fucker of a plant and has made my opther plants jealous of her ridiculously HUGE THICK fans. She looks like she's about to put the smackdown on the girls around her... "get out my light, bitches! Slap!"
Bear's MTF is still vegging but looking good.
I am in the process of reducing my total number of plants and increasing the average size and veg time so I still haven't popped my new beans. Next up are a couple interesting crosses that were gifted to me recently, and the 4 strains I got from Subcool/TGA/MzJilll including her jillybean that I'm seriously hoping to get going enough to clone for outdoors as it fits my needs for a colorful plant that can be hidden among ornamentals.
Um that's about it. My tenant just announced that he is moving like NOW and I'm kind of fucked because I had been planning on swapping apartments IN SPRING!!!!! So I'll be super busy the next couple weeks painting and unfortunately NOT moving my garden, boo hoo!
Well gotta run!

Hey Stinky! Everything is looking great with your grow! Did you find the papaya high maintenance or do you think I, a beginner, could conquer that strain? Haven't seen you around my log for a while, hope my amateur self didn't scare you off! Anyhow...just wanted to say your babies are beautiful. Peace!

stinkyattic

01-02-2007, 04:42 PM

No sorry I've just been so busy lately!!! :D
Papaya does not seem to be even remotely picky or finicky and is one of the strongest specimens in my garden.
Thanks for the kind words as always an I promise I'll come visit all the other logs by the end of the week!!!!

Oh BTW I just got a new toy.... a CO2 system.... used...cheap... Thanks hydro guru!!! :D

Come to think of it, we were having a giggle this weekend about how few of the ladies are into hydro. Yeah, there's a few, but it seems the need for POWER TOOLS and TINKERING is such a guy thing... and then I thought of the local growers I know, only 1 dude is still in dirt! lol. Men! So predictable!!! But in a good way! :D

01-03-2007, 03:08 PM

co2 !! hmmm.. I am jelous... here is an update of the queen Afghan I got her all tucked down and she is flowering nice.

and the second is the massive queen with her other sister. i got her to lay down and chill under some gill net. now she is budding everywhere.

01-09-2007, 05:24 PM

Well that was scary!!! The log made it down to page 2! :D Dammit I need ATTENTION!!!!!! Just kidding.... I did want to check in and say hi, and why there have been no updates in like EVER...

So we are having a super extra weird warm [hot!?] spell around these parts and I'm totally at my wits end trying to keep up with watering. It's SO hot in the attic! I can't sleep at night, both from the heat and from worrying about my girls. I've got fans exhausting the attic but since I winterized the house there's no a/c up there and the windows are all sealed with plastic that is supposed to stay on until April or thereabouts... so the exhaust is pushing hot air DOWN the stairs, and for reasons that should be apparent, IT ISN'T WORKING VERY WELL!!!
So between that and trying to work on my plant count, I'm pretty well ready to tear my own head off! I can't start any new seeds ATM, so the elite strains that were meant to be going by now are still in their packets. DAMN. And a couple recent gift strains are also on the back burner until I get rid of some duff.
Oh well there's a rant.
Pics soon I promise...

This weather we're having is bizarre, to say the least. I feel your pain! I just can't stand it when things don't go according to plan. It seems the weather for the next few weeks is supposed to be more like winter, but we'll see. Good luck and I hope the temps drop for you! Peace.

Can't wait to see some new pics!

Pics!!! You guys are in luck!!!
Here's some of my new project... tying up the ladies to make them bigger and get my plant count under control!
The first 2 are just cool pics but bad qulaity..
1-BlueMoonRocks from BOG- one leafy assed girl! She has a main cola from dirt to tip!
2-Yeag's MTF that I put in flower without giving her enough veg time after topping, but she's still a doll
3-A BOG medley clone all tied up
4-Anohter pic
5-These Plan B Smashberry clones are ready to start training

stinkyattic

01-11-2007, 03:50 PM

And this is my method for tying an untopped from-seed plant... it's different from a clone because of the symmetrical, rather than somewhat random, branch angles that a single-stemmed plant displays.

The example is a Yeag's MTF that was hanging out in veg under just flouros for long enough to show me her pubes. BIG MISTAKE!!! She's going to be a mom now!

1- Take a plant that has like 10 nodes untopped
Take it out of its pot and repot it sort of sideways
2&3- Tie across the base of the main stem to keep it like that
4- Then tie the top of the main stem back so it comes back across the pot and exposes the stem to light
5- Make it your bitch

Just remember: Tie her up, bend her over, make her do what you say! :D Plants seem to enjoy that more than women do.

the yeag

01-11-2007, 03:58 PM

I enjoy training unruly bitches...I do the exact same thing..but then I weave them into my gill net. and push their fat fan leaves underneath leaving a beautiful green canopy of sticky dankness on top. that is done after the beheading of the pontiff's prissy princess.

stinkyattic

01-11-2007, 04:21 PM

I'm hoping to really be able to train all the girls into nice round plants that my fertilizer guru refers to as "BOGbushes" from all those old pics of the breeder's own plants that used to be on overgrow... finishing as basically a big ball about 4-5 feet in diameter... good number of bud sites...
My goal is to have 6-10 mothers of different strains to work with and take clones off one per week so that each one has ~8 weeks to recover from her prune, and I harvest one big-assed BUSH of a different strain every week.
So obviously my 'keeper' strains should take well to pruning and have good side development.

the yeag

01-11-2007, 04:40 PM

that sounds good.. i have been building a new light system ..that would be fun to try with that...I am pretty comfortable with electricity..i upgraded my home to a 200 hundred amp service..just had a buddy who is certified pull the permit and get the power shut off...anyway this is a description of what i am building... I borrowed a conduit bender and and built a tree of conduit...3' tall. every 4 inches up the conduit. there is a {branch} built of conduit with a double outdoor water resistant socket. so every four inches you have 4 bulbs two on each side...my plan is to stake a clone to this conduit tree and have the plant grow the same shape as the tree of bulbs..i am going to use this only for flower with additional top lighting.. i was thinking about using hps 50-100 wt bulbs on my light tree... so one plant will recieve up to 200wts of hps on every bud site. i built a model but i already have some new ideas..but it is 3' tall and has 6 conduit branches now on each side. any thoughts...

stinkyattic

01-11-2007, 04:44 PM

Wow that sounds really neat... a great idea! I'd like to see it in action.
Questions... Can you turn off individual sockets so that a small plant gets top light and only the lowest side lights, or are they all wired together? One thing I'm thinking is that the power surge from your entire tree lighting up at once might be a bear... put different levels on different circuits and then time them to come on a little staggered?
I hope you will start a log of your new light tree.

the yeag

01-11-2007, 04:52 PM

yes each branch is on it's own 20 amp breaker. they can be turned on one at a time..actually to at a time because each branch is a double socket..this contraption is all wired up and has leads coming off it to go right into the box i built a disconect off the main pannel...so it would be mobile... i will put a pic up when it is in action

Hi, Stinky, Nice training on that MTF. Nice. You need a better camera, though. :p

I'm updating my thread soon (today) with harvest pics. :) Don't forget to peek. :) How were your holidays? How was Festivus? ;)

Yeag, that is a cool design. I had pondered something similar to that. My idea was similar to one of those scalp massage things. It would look like that (the scalp massager (see pic below), but with different lengths of extentions that are adjustable, and lights on each point, including the middle top.

That way, it would cover an entire plant, all the way around and could be adjusted as the plant grew, but could stay close to the plant at all times on all sides.

Looking forward to those pics of the light tree.

Festivus was most awesomestest party ever. I think I covered it back in the log but not sure.. lots of food, lots of cheap wine, lots of Shrek, lots of people, and a BIG FUCKING MESS in my kitchen after. I call the day seized!:D

i also am working on the planning stage of an led grow....your spider has inspired me fog... basically use the light banks they sell..but also use small clusters of LED's like legs on your spider......could you imagine millions of fiber optic lines running from the roof down to the grow room harnessing the free light of the sun ..i wonder if that has any possibilities.

wOOt!

Hey I have UPDATES!!!!!

I made some room and just started:

4 JillyBean
4 Space Queen
8 SAGE x that were gifted by a grow buddy :D you know who you are!!!
8 BlueJay x Bogglegum that were also a gift... and I must say those were some of the biggest, gnarliest beans I've ever seen!!!

The CO2 system is also up and running, a kind loan from my fertilizer guy until I can buy my own.

Well the spring is peeking around the corner... it's official... WalMart has their seeds in and this morning I picked up a few:
French radish
Tomato 'red lightning' (2 packs... 82 days, but gorgeous orange and red striped and indeterminate so they are going in my new greenhouse)
Beet Detroit Dark
Tomato 4th of July
Carrot short n sweet
Lime basil!!!! I'm really excited about this variety. We used to get weird phenos at the hydro place I worked, but mostly just lemon, licorice, or pineapple scented, and the licorice was by FAR the most common, accounting for maybe 90% of oddballs.
Cucumber picklebush
Papaver orientalis... lol need a friend for my p. somniferums!

So I'm afraid that production in my grow room may be shifting heavily towards veggie starts in the next month. We'll see. My dad keeps offering to come out for a week and help me do some sprucing up around the house... :eek: it may be a good time to get some 'real' crops in up there!!!

I look forward to seeing pics of all the growing plants! I saw lime basil in one of the catalogs but can't remember which one. I'll have to pick some up- this is going to be a banner year for us for pesto since I've got about 8 different types started already .
So you have a greenhouse, that is very cool- We hope to get one in the next few years. What kind do you have? We need to keep it small so that it fits next to the house.
I'll be starting 4th of July toms too, as well as the usual Roma, Yellow Pear, and supersweet 100. I trying out a Sun Gold hybrid, a Persimmon orange tomato and an Oregon Spring hybrid, and of course tomatillos- want some seeds?
Also: white eggplant, violet, lavender, and striped eggplant, as well as parsnips, summer and winter squash, cucumbers, carrots, arugula, baby pumpkins, giant sunflowers, dahlias (if they survive overwintering in the garage!) etc etc
I'm just :jointsmile: not sure where everything is going to go

this is going to be a banner year for us for pesto since I've got about 8 different types started already .Holy crap on my head I am in love with pesto. I like to fool around with it and add different stuff... like sundried tomatoes, or walnuts mmmm, or HAHAHA cannaoliveoil and leave out the cheese for vegan stoner gourmets, lol!

So you have a greenhouse,...... What kind do you have?
I do not currently have a greenhouse but as soon as I get my apartment flipped that's the next construction project. It's going to be a simple PVC hoophouse, either a 10x20 or maybe a couple smaller ones for convenience. Here's instructions! You can pretty much build it out of scraps if you have a contractor buddy! Or if not, the parts are SOOO cheap.How to Build a PVC Hoophouse for your Garden - The Westside Gardener (http://westsidegardener.com/howto/hoophouse.html)

Of course!!! If you're starting stuff inside I'll trade starts with you.

I look foward to seeing those grow in the hands of a skilled individual such as yourself.

hey peeples
Updates!!!
Took clones yesterday, 4 clones each from 4 small moms, totalling 8 Hindu Kush and 8 Plan B Black Indica.
Rooting in rapid rooters, with clonex, and on a seedling heat mat under 2x40x tube flouros. Simple! We like. :D
Sprouts doing well:
6 BlueJay x very vigorous!!!
6 SAGE x fine
4 JillyBean fine
4 Space Queen F2 freebies, not so great, seeds were small and they are not all breaking dirt even though they all popped.
Looking into a pair of parabolic reflectors still
And working on house projects... ugh... the garden has barely seen me in DAYS as I've been painting and laying tile.
The Yeag emailed me with an early taste-test on the Afghan x my bagseed line seeds I sent him... that plant he posted here earlier... I hope he doesn't mind me posting the prelim report here...

"i puled a bud off about the size of a quarter . i dried it in the
oven at 80-120' for three hours when i pulled it out it was so
sticky. i know it is still not mature. the bud was not dried ..it
was not cured but check this out.

one joint slightly less than a gram.
i smoked half of it and i had a huge headhigh that went to my body and
to my toes and for 30 minutes my entire body was stoned and
numb..the cold feeling...
30 minutes later a head buzz and a relaxed enrergetic feeling..no
munchies at all..the taste was sweet..very suprising....i could
taste an almond kind of cherry mix ...of course mixed in with
chlorophyl..choke"

Well that just about made my day hearing that!!! I had thought the mother that the seeds were from had almost a vanilla flavor. I don;t have any of that particular seed run going ATM but DID start a bunch of COUSINS; same Afghani and my own bagseed genetics but then crossed in the next generation to an unknown BOG strain that had nice plant structure and a nice light green color (less chlorophyll, wOOt, to have to cure out if it!) and the offspring so far are really showing traits from both parents! Pale green leaves, but exceptionally wide, and overall a lot of vigor.
Anyway gotta run, more later!

It's amazing how good threads like this drop to the bottom of the page so quickly! :) While everyone's out there posting new threads with questions, they should be looking through other threads for their answers first! :) [/rant]

Is that the whitewater rafting one next to the 'battery-powered vibrator'? If so, then yes. :)

Uh hey!!!
That yellow vibrator runs on high-octane fuel dammit!!!! Come OOOONN!!! Give a girl some credit!
And actually that's not from rafting, it's from a little early-season whitewater canoeing... Deerfield River... April... Dam release above Zoar Gap... wOOt!!! My idiot self seems to enjoy being cold and wet.

That's a leopard frog!
You can tell them apart from pickerel frogs in that pickerel frogs have a more squared-off look to their spots.
Nice camo wetsuit there froggy.

Well folks, this is the end of my log.

The crazy ex boyfriend has made it necessary for me to take out a restraining order after he kicked my door in on Saturday night.

I can no longer grow at my home because I need protection and a handgun is absolutely out of the question.

So the girlies are being scattered to the 4 winds until a time comes when I can get back on track and rebuild my operation.

One thing for sure is that it won't be at my home unless my nemesis leaves the state... I expect him to roll over on me at any moment and plan to be prepared for a visit by the cops with a lovely roomful of organic hot peppers.

Latewood, ready or not, here I come, veggie boy! lol

It has been nearly 2 and a half years since I started growing, a total nOOb, with nothing but a green thumb and a yard full of roses.

So for all you guys who stopped by here with questions, comments, and a few good laughs, THANK YOU for being such a bunch of cool shits!

Kisses!xoxox

Holy Shit! Please, please say you're joking? Listen, I could arrange a hit on that asshole if you'd like...(on me of course)...Think I'm joking? Ok, I am, kind of, but dang...your grow was going absolutely terrific! What a jerk of an ex he turned out to be eh? Shit, well, I hope you don't go too far, sure is comforting to know that if I have questions you can answer them. Geez-us, I'm gonna miss you. Take care of yourself and may your ex be damned for the dog he is! Peace baby! xxxx:(

Wow this thread is old. lol.
But I've actually got updates to it!

Last night I was out with my neighbor enjoying the rainy evening in our usual manner- at the worst Chinese restaurant on the planet. My car wasn't in the parking lot- we'd taken my friend's truck- and who should pull up but my ex.

Yes, THAT ex.

I am due to get off probation within days of his last court date relating to something that happened when I kicked him out. I've been a stress mess lately, worrying that he will take advantage of the opportunity to snitch.
I scooted out to catch him before he came inside and started by telling him that our dog is sick- I've had 2 tumors taken off her this month. I think that news sort of disarmed him.
On to the small talk, how's life, how's work, oh don't you have a court date coming up, and told him that I had asked for them ONLY to give me the restraining order but I personally did not care to see them pursue the B&E charges. He assured me that there was nothing to worry about on my end either, and asked if I still had any equipment, or whether I had sold it... :eek: ... he's moving out of the county (finally, thank GOD) and wants to grow. He says he learned by watching me and it looked easy, lol.

But that was a shocker- For him to assume that I was still completely out of business after all this time... I've been going on the assumption that he thinks I'm a grower and always will be. I took a deep breath and showed a little of my hand... that I still have the equipment... and I am using it. But not the way he thinks. I told him that in no way am I growing for product, but that I wanted to keep breeding on a very small scale, and that if he wanted to get set up, I would help him, and give him solid genetics to get going with, on the condition that he repaired the damage to my house which I am still angry at him for, and the unfinished electrical work that left dead circuits in every room of my house. He agreed eagerly.

It was a bizarre conversation to say the least. The only person who knows about my grow and has bad blood with me is that guy. And apparently the blood isn't as bad as I had thought.

You know what they say... keep your friends close... but your enemies closer.
I still trust him about as far as I can throw him but it's like a giant weight has been lifted off my shoulders.

So I guess that story is almost over... the last chapter will finish unfolding over the next week or so, but I think we have a happy ending in store.

Teh epilogue is that I have learned a lot about planning a grow for ease of removing it from the house, and I've learned about relationships, and the law, and even a little about myself and how I act under pressure. I was reminded that the law IS on your side when the shit hits the fan- having done everything else legally and in good faith made me able to go on the offensive, in court, when I had to, even STILL having a bunch of plants kicking around.

The new beginning is that I am back in the game and feeling safer than I have in months. My genetics collection has nearly doubled in size, and I've culled the poor performers. I had the chance to break down totally to nothing and start rebuilding from scratch.

I built a new room yesterday, ironically in the same crawl space where I planted my first seed 3 years ago and which gave me my canncom handle. It's bringing me closer to my dream grow- the third room just for big mothers under 650w of MH, air conditioned, beautiful. That, combined with a 1400w flower room and a sweet little veg closet under tube flouros.... well, you can only imagine.

Things are looking up.

That is cool Stinky..just beware/ careful of how much you say...I find a good thing to do when I dont want to talk about a certain subject is to conciously say in my head that I dont want to talk about that...then I end up talking about something else..

You are not really going to help him though...I am sure you just said that to keep him soft, right?

the 'soft' one :D He's like putty in my paws.

lol you gots to watch out for the wimmins... we can be conniving little creatures.

I'm going to give him some clones and send him on his merry way. But HELP? Not so much! I really would prefer to talk to him as little as humanly possible.

See, I know how you girlies work...

At least he will be gone soon.

That's right, and by having him finish the electrical, naturally with a couple male friends in the house with me, I'm going to save around $5000 that I would have had to spend on an electrician trying to figure out what in the fuck the ex had actually done, and fix it. That's a lot of money that I will be able to save for getting my house ready to sell when I move to Alaska to be with the man I love.

07-05-2007, 04:57 PM

OH SHIT! I didnt know you where moving to Alaska...that is awesome! Congrats!

What is the professional baseball team they have up there? Anchorage Angels..no...juno jalepenos...no...
well, you always got cable I guess. LOL... j/k

stinkyattic

07-05-2007, 05:03 PM

lol the Alaska thing isn't a definite yet but it looks good so far.
I don't have cable NOW, so meh, whatever.
The stuff I do for fun now is all the same up there, but bigger, lol. Bigger whitewater, bigger mountains for skiing, bigger fucking FISH. Did you see the Yeag's big ass salmon in the North to Alaska thread? OMG I can't wait. Oh... and the more lenient attitudes towards cultivation... I'll become a 'real' breeder yet, just you wait and see.

thats what i was thinking, this must be an old log. i went pretty far back while reading and still didnt find this one. ive seen bits and pieces in other threads. i didnt read the whole thing but i might on one of those nights that i have nothing better to do(ithg took a whole night). good luck on the move where ever it is. might become a breeder? lol

stinkyattic

07-05-2007, 07:43 PM

I'm working on some stuff atm and have been for a while. It's nowhere near stabilized yet but Shovelhandle grew out some Foxy Seeds stuff and so did the Yeag, and there's a pic in this log actually, no kidding. I also think KDSpecial ran some of my stuff last winter.
The ultimate goal is a true-breeding line that combines indestructibility with short flower time and good sweet aroma. Something that will thrive at 45'N latitude outdoors and also do well under lights. The gene pool I've been playing with has Afghani roots and the next generation may see an infusion of thunderfuck genetics to help lock down the extreme wide leaf blades I like, and shorten up the internodes a bit.
This log actually was good for a few good laughs too. And the pictures of my old grow are funny to me to go back and look at how far I have come since then, lol... the main difference being that now I am the proud owner of an air-cooled hood... :D bye bye heat stress!

good luck on your project, thats not what i was laughing at. i even get a good laugh at some of my posts and it aint because they are old. its like hearing your own voice on a tape recorder, youre like do i really sound like that? blush blush. i wasnt knocking your breeding attempts, it was the term BREEDER that was funny. i took an attempt myself. i had purple and lemon both(names i made myself after looking at their traits) and the seeds didnt work, the ending result was something called sausage(maple syrup and breakfast). one harsh and knock your dick the other like perfume but not great in the buzz area. i too look for plants that i cant kill. i get my share of hermi's too. we are at 45deg too, just a hair further north. once i have a little$$ im going to expand, the classics. northern lights, skunk #1, afghani,the others i would like to try are pot-o-gold, cherry bomb, gypsies kiss, and eventually blueberry, haze and hash plant. ahh there is my x-mas wish list for now.
