Some fun facts related to fairies ;)

BR BX1 = Blue Ripper F2/P5 back crossed to the F1 male
This should produce some very tasty and terpy phenos. The back cross was to the P5 female pheno which is the strongest smelling BR I have. I call it the red hair pheno as the hairs turn a bright brown/redish colour about 4-5 weeks into flowering. Very fruity, strong terp traits from the Blueberry line. Typically Xmas tree, medium structure phenos with a strong road kill skunk stem about 5-6 weeks from popping through the soil have been the best phenos. These medium height phenos have all finished within ~8-9 weeks as well. Not huge stretchers but very branchy so decent production, particularly from clone with either topping/FIM or super-cropping.

BH F1 = Blue Harley, cross of the Blue Ripper F1 male x Harlequin keeper female
This cross is where I pulled a couple of very nice phenos from the first couple of drops totalling about 12 seeds. Second drop of 6 pulled the keeper I'm running now. There were no significant traits to speak of in veg, not a lot of smell on the female stem rubs. The male I got was the only one with a significant smell in veg. The 2x keeper worthy female phenos didn't show much until about 4 weeks into flowering, then the terps from the Harlequin female came through, very complex tropical fruity/candy smell once the buds start setting in, the one I dropped had more of a strawberry smell than anything. Still haven't nailed down the smell/taste of my keeper but it's very unique, it's a head turner and triple bagger. It combines the crazy terps from the Harlequin and adds some hashy terps from the Blue Ripper side. Medium stretchers from the one's I've run and take well to training although the keeper has such a nice natural structure I've been running the clones with no training recently. Both keeper-worthy fems have been short 7-8 week finishers, similar to the Harlequin which can be typically pulled just after 7 weeks.

Had left the 2x 3 gal Blue Harley's go another watering, could have pulled at 56, they went to 60. Chunky and dense, just like I like them :)

Larger clone coming in, nice, there's 3-3.5 zips in there

Smaller clone about a week behind the one above. Last pic is a seeded branch, you can see some seeds sticking out if you zoom in. Finally got some F2's with that female :D

Hey cheers @Pig4buzz if you mean defoliation, I only pick off the larger fans if they're dead/dying, otherwise I leave them.
Well after I put up filters it just seems I am having a hard time keeping humidity down guess may have get one. I had major defo going on to help cut down on humidity. Olive looked n sure you have a dehumidifier is there any brand better than others? Sorry to rape your thread.

Yeah I find in my room I need a dehuey during lights out. Lights on I always seem to manage below 55% which is what I target. The dedicated dehuey I have has a digital setting for RH, I set it to 55% and it comes on only when needed. I put it on a timer so it only comes on when the lights go out and turns off 1/2 an hour before the lights come on.

They'll all generate some heat but the dedicated unit I picked up is much more efficient, cost me about $160 on sale, can't remember the brand but it wasn't some big brand, just a re-branded one from a store called Canadian Tire up here (they're all made by a few manufacturers and re-branded from what I saw when looking around). It has the energy star rating and 60L (~15 gal)/day capacity. Main thing I looked for was higher capacity than I needed, built-in humidistat, and automatic drain hook-up. I have a sump pump in the room so I just hooked up a hose and run it into the sump pump res so I don't have to drain it manually or worry about it. I had a dual dehuey and AC unit I picked up (Haier) which could run in either mode (AC or dehumidifier) but I found it generated more heat than getting rid of the humidity.

That's how they work...

Meteorologists know that to reduce RH, you add heat. The water (usually pure, so it's good for plants) is mostly to show the customer it's doing something lol
