Fourth of July Crop

[Shovelhandle]

I like to plan crops' harvests and proving around traditional party times. So, I plan to get going on a new grow in time for USA ndependance Day, Canada Day Holidays and will log all the good stuff, including pics here.

The first steps will be to...
(1) clean the grow area
(2) decide on seeds ( I'll have to get busy and finish smoking and proving last grow's products)
(3) Germinate some seeds.

Sorry I've not been on line.
I've busy with personal and family medical crisis, some extended out of town visits. As soon as I get my grow area ready I'll try and get around to enjoying some of the wonderful threads that are no doubt on these here pages.

He's a pic of the plant from which these seeds are derived.
The strain in the photo is the original New England Bubblegum crossed with Foxy Seeds Afghani Dream x BOG Medley.
Notice that the bud is very crystalized. The buzz is remarkable!
This plant was germinated from a hermied Afghani type crossed with the same Foxy Seeds Afghani Dream x BOG Medley.
Confused?

I've got 13 such seeds in wet papertowel on top of the fridge in a metal tin. I have a dozen small pots ready to fill with fresh potting soil mixture.

That nug shot looks good- did you notice how much of the purple color remained on that purple pheno after drying and curing? I'm curious!
Anyway I'm watching with interest

Stinky,
The colors do change, so I'm lucky that I labeled each plant's dried/cured buds. The colors are lighter. Right now I'm smoking that BBG like in that picture. When I get into my stash sometime I'll photograph the finished bud next to the growing buds on the old XMAS Grow.

I put the twelve sprouted seeds into my fresh potting soil mix. There are a dozen pots aprox 1 qt each. I put six pots each in two "window" boxes to help with moving them around. The seedlings are 2" tall. They are lit buy a single two lamp, four foot T-8 6500K. The lamp to leaf distance is about 3". The ambient temperature is 78-82ºf.

The seedlings look really good. Kind of tough to get a nice pic overhead. So, I raised up the light fixture and took a picture from the side.

good luck shov! :greenthumb:
all feminized seeds?

[Shovelhandle]

Thanks Hennessy. Fem seeds? I do believe so. Time will tell.

I only have room to flower 6 plants, 8 at the most. So I will keep the best six indoors and try and find some spots for the leftovers, likely outdoors as I don't have any friends who grow who live near me.
