'NORCAL DADDYS GIRL' seeds available very soon ...

[whodii]

thanks IR.

I coulda swore antman had a indica pheno but turns out it was g13 x buddah.. HA

ANd i beleive i saw mississippi steve have an indica pheno of NCDG but maybe that was another plant in his thread.

I always udnerstood it to be more sativish or a nice hybrid from most of the NCDG pics i've seen. THere's one plant that looks a lot like NCDG but the buds don't have a strong smell when i smell them. I have 3 that semll a lot like grapefruits or some kind of sweet fruit ... im assuming they are AK99 because the nl/ak doesn't smell too much. Only thing is, I only had 2 ak99 seeds.

I'm a little confused but i'll keep updating

NCDG will slap you in the face with her scent. Should be no mistaking her...lol. I ran 90 plants in 3 gals last time, 9 strains, could ONLY smell the NCDG
Saw the NCDG 2 packs on seedbay fundraiser went for over $100! Sounds like they are ready for ya IR!! respect
good vibes

Ok this is strange. Looking through the buds off the lower partof the plant and found about 10 seeds. This plant didn't look like a hermie that fertilized itself ? Only other males in the closet were IR's ncdg and some g13xbudha males. Could some of the pollen survived and pollinated a few buds ? I'm going to check the buds from the upper half of the plant.

at least i have 4 NCDG seeds left that I will label and try to make f2's of.

Which way is best to make f2's? let all males pollenate all females, or select a certain male to pollenate just 1 female?

If i decide to just collect pollen and spread it on the pistils with a q-tip, what days in flower should i spread the pollen on the pistils?

... well, another 'germination test' of my original 'NorCal Daddy's Girl' went well, :thumbsup: ... I had almost forgotten, around 3 years ago, I gave a couple film cans of seeds, packed in rice, to a buddy, to give to his greenhouse manager, son ... the son 'changed careers' (think he was fired ), and it was forgotten ... fortunately, my buddy remembered to keep them stored in the refrigerator ... I know they're around 3 years old, or more, but lost all records in the fire ... of 28 DRY seeds started, all but one germinated, and of those, 4 were 'turned around' in the rapidrooters, and weren't likely to be good ones ... I gave some away, and saved a dozen seedlings, for my current project ... the 'bubbler' was left overnite, in a barn, and was literally COVERED in insects the next morning :wtf: ... did I ever mention how my luck is, regarding outdoor attempts ? ... (I used white vinegar, to bring pH down, and I suspect it attracted the bugs) ... finding a hydroponic store in a midwest farm community, is like finding lips on a chicken ... gonna have to mail-order everything ... anyway, I think they are gonna make it, the next couple days will tell ... I also added a new 'test' to the plan ... today, I placed some DRY seeds, into pre-moistened potting soil, and placed in the sun ... let's find out if Mother Nature knows as much, as we think we do ! ...

back to the point: we're talking about a 5-day period here, and they're already transplanted into soil cups :thumbsup ... refrigerated around 3 years, well-water pH too high (7.7) , used white vinegar, attacked by insects, temps here in the 90s, and humidity off the charts ... AND, my NCDG babies are alive and smiling at the sun ... reminds me of the wise, old pot-grower, that said " it's a WEED, leave it the hell alone ! " ...

a second germination test: I placed 18 DRY seeds, into cups, filled with moistened, well-drained, Miracle-Gro 'Organic' potting soil (all I could find locally here) with perlite added ... 12 NorCal Daddy's Girl seeds (3 yrs old), and 6 Sour Jack seeds, (2 yrs. old) ... placed the cups in the yard, and ignored them ... after the 3rd day, I have 15, of those 18, well sprouted ... it's 'easy' ... as I've always recommended, 'imitate nature' ... throw the wet papertowels away !, they're a breeding ground for Pythium Wilt, and harmful bacteria ... once used as an aid (?) to test-germinate old, questionable seeds, somehow it has become thought of, as the world-standard of seedstarting ... not so ... good growing !

[Dutch Pimp]

in my last germination test ...I had 100% germination sucess

I put 15-20 seeds between my cheek and gum for 12 hours and then spit them into the soil....:rastabanna:...100%...not counting the ones I swallowed

Is this going to be a seed batch that will be up for sale in the future?:thumbsup:

I'm 4 weeks into 12/12 with NCDG, first time I've tried this strain. Indoor/dirt 1000w. Using Fox farm dirt and full fert. schedule. Any tips on finishing?
