smoking on some SSH right now....yeahy yeah....doesnt get much better than this.....my friend loves the purple so much....he give me 2 for 1 on the SSH for purple......trust me i cant believe him either...but SSH and Black haze are usually around $225 a zip round here! gotta love the south!
killa! same thing happened here. traded 6 grams of urkle for an eigth of SSH. SSH is the bomb. although, i must admit, trainwreck has sure given it a run for its money :D
That's shaping up to be quite the herb garden there Jake.
Buena suerte mi amigo.:thumbsup:
great work jake...everything is looking supreme..i really like the selection of seeds as well.
very good garden, Elvis. 'heck of a job'
I just pulled SSH and got some SSH x Blueberry beans (had 21, found 14 more). Like you, I have a bubblegum male but I'll be pollinating a blueberry and two Z10 females with it.
Good Luck, Big Buck!
The SSH was snapped at its base by some roving paws, so unfortunately there will be no NL x SSH beans for me. SSH was a definite fem too - what a shame. But, I do love my pups and they did not mean any harm. Such is life - we win some and we lose some so that our victories are all the more enjoyable. Thanks for stopping in, greenatik - it's always a pleasure to see you. I apologize for my long absence, and I hope all's been and will continue to be well with you and yours, my friend!Quote:

If no indoor, then they'll spring to life in Spring, 2010. Your zip prices are mo betta than here; I'd be lookin' at $480 per zip - INSANE! See why I grow now, eh? I've got to get back up to speed with you, my friend - I miss all of incredible plant pictures and your generosity. Be good over there!Quote:

It's been way too long since last I really browsed this great board; I didn't realize how much I missed it until searching Google led me back here. This board is truly filled with incredible knowledge and experiences! I hope you have been having a great experience in your latest grow!Quote:

They're only in their first week of veg, so will only enjoy about 1 month before hitting flower. I'm interested to see how well they perform. I started a grow late last year, but this year I've started these beans even later. I think they'll make it; last year my Colombian Red Haze didn't finish until around Christmas, but she made it just fine!Quote:

I've heard about your Z10 before, but you'll have to fill me in on its genetics - adding some Bubblegum to the mix sounds pretty darn interesting! May the sun continue to shine on you and your garden, my friend!Quote:

I hope all's well with everyone!
It's been awhile since I updated - no real excuse there. I did have to break down and buy a new camera, so you'll have to bear with me while I learn to use this darn thing; too many features - I may have to get my son to show me how to use it! Am I that old now? Some days I sure feel like it.
Here's a bit of eye candy for everyone. The ladies began flowering a lil' over 1 week ago, so there should be some fun stuff to see in another week or so. For now, you'll have to use a lil' imagination.
1st Pic = Lemon Skunk rescued first - has made a SWEET recovery - sunshine will truly work wonders, won't it?
2d Pic = Sour Cream with Sunshine #2 in Silo cup beside for comparison reference; I fugged up a bit and tried to bend LST her when she was a lil' too dry, so her stems split a bit; we'll see if a lil' smoker engineering will get the job done to keep those branches alive and kickin'.
3rd Pic = Lemon Skunk rescued from bad spot about 2 weeks ago; she's really come a long way, and should look like LS1 in another week.
4th Pic = Old School; I grew this strain out last year from some bagseed that was spot on resembling some of the best stuff I used to smoke in high school (thus it's name). I'll post a pic or 2 of her swollen calyxes, pregnant with some sweet NL pollen.
5th Pic = Colombian Red Haze, butchered in 1/2 to keep her from growing taller than fence; she's still around 3 1/2 feet, but now her branches will be sturdy enough to support her buds - hopefully. She's got a ton of new growth already since this pic was taken.
Pic 1 shows OS' swollen calyxes. I can't wait to try the OS x NL.
Pic 2 shows beginning buds on LS1.
Pic 3 shows the newbies - Sunshine #2 is in the Silo cup; from left to right are KaliMist x Romulan and WW x SSH.
As for the fates of the beans not listed above - The Bubblelicious I grew out were male, and I threw them out in favor of the NL male. The PPP went to a friend along with the SSH. I kept 1 SSH, but as you read above, my pups got the better of her.
Never to fear though, I have more beans on the way - I really do need to go indoor, so I can grow year 'round. I think the last batch o' beans that are shown in Pic 3 will be my last batch this year.
Good luck to everyone out there, and continued joy and success in your own grows!
Man, you have more going on that ten growers, Elvis. I know I have a difficult time doing taste tests and strain reviews of my herb. You must be overwhelmed. I for go serious smoke reports until the herb is properly cured, which seems to continue for a couple of months. By that time I'm looking forward to a new harvest and new strain tastes. Have you considered doing a thread of just your strain reviews sometime?
Anyhow, keep up the fine gardening. :jointsmile:
