Nice job. What strain?
Felt a little guilty posting in this thread, since not honest gen... it's mostly GPS with one Durban Poison clone in the corner... Gotta say, I'm really surprised at how little the DP stretched. It was a relatively young clone in fairly far behind the others at flip, so i suppose it has held its own and caught up pretty well.

Please post only Honest Genetics on this thread, it’s not intended for other genetics unless there’s a comparison involved
Sorry again- was pretty stoned and didn't finish my last post lol. The reason I posted photos of my current grow was to continue our covo on topping techniques, to show my current structure, using regular LST topping as opposed to your recommended lopping technique for stimulating root growth. Both make sense to me, but was ultimately curious as to how they compare. And i got a little excited. Sorry to hijack your thread. Your strains look super dank!! :weed::peace:

Crappy pic.... but you should get the idea just the same. Nicely frosted/dense nug. Can't coment on yield other than to say these offered about the same as the other tortured gals in this first wave of plants

Really nice taste. Not as deep as the Raspberry Kush but in that same kinda zone. (P Punch, i suspect) Berry...but some cleaner on top er something. Hard to pin it down. More research needed :bigjoint: What we did notice was that the flavor on this one just kept on deepening as the doob got smaller. Very nice tokes. Both of these plants smelled about the same....however...one of the 2 plants in the next round seems to be a bit more terpy....and because they didn't get as tortured...those are offering a bit more bulk as well. Will definitely run her outside this Summer for another peek. Someone running perpetual who went in and did a small search could probably find something real nice to clone/run for a bit for sure.

Last test.....the rosin squish. Very nice stuff. Good nose. Decent yield. Will be fun to dig into this, for sure....

ScarJo has been my all time best selling strain, I’ve had many strains sell out completely but ScarJo I made a huge number of seeds for and they just keep on selling strong. Word of mouth has been great on that one and people really love it. For yields they tend to really like more food and water than most other plants and if you can keep on top of them you can get 5gallon plants yielding up to 10-12oz a piece no problem with good lighting and airflow in your room. Along with the excess food and water of course. Outside they are absolute beasts. I had some gigantic SJ’s when I ran them in the greenhouse ;)

Took all the Honest plants out of the tent to check them over and cut clones. The very first one--Purple Frosting--had this one ball sac on it. My heart sunk as I have had trouble with hermies and I was worried that all the plants might be dropping balls. But after checking over all the plants, this one Purple Frosting ball sac is the only sign of hermy's in the tent. I'm actually quite pleased. 1 out of 10 ain't bad and that ratio just about falls in line with what Honest said to expect as far as Hermy's. Hope these plants remain stable as it was a big factor in choosing Honest gear. So far so good.

Here's the rest of the tent. Everything except the bushy Gogi OG on the left is Honest gear and looking healthy!

The only other issue is with one Banana Cocktail at 28 days from flip. It stopped growing once it hit the flower tent. No stretch. It is literally the exact same height as the ScarJo next to it that got placed in the flower tent today. I have defoliated twice since starting flower b/c the leaves were so thick and blocking out each other's light. Its like this strain prays so hard that leaves reach higher than the bud sites and it blocks light. But what's strange is that this plant was tied for the fastest grower during veg. It just stopped growing any taller during flower.

Can I get your opinion, Honest? Is Banana Cocktail a typically short strain? Did the defoliation stunt the growth? or something else keep it short?

And should I do anything further to give the buds light and space?

After a few days in the jar.....Scar Jo is smellin' like full on strawberries. She is quickly earning a spot in the big garden. Famous last words "I'm done buying seeds for awhile"....

Snicker.....I may have to think about snagging another pack of these for the future. :eyesmoke:
Do you have any pics of her when she was in flower? Any tips on growing her?. I have two going

This was my first re-entry into indoor growing after 5 years. Everything...new. I tortured them well....pH was off at first...had the flu/etc. My wife walked by the tent and said "Wow...that is the worst looking grow you've ever done". o_O All I can say is that they appear stable...no herms/etc... and the nugs are super frosty and dense. Even with everything being off these plants offered some nice bud.
