Elephant Bud

[jasper2478]

well im glad the tude help u out wish they would have gave me the option to send a pic they told me to send the seeds back with th original packing and pay to ship it lucky u but anyways your girls are looking mighty fine im so interested i check this journal everyday waiting till you harvest

I think it helped that i was a repeat customer.wen i order i cant ever just buy a single strain.I am running out of room.i have 2 more orders than i will be done for awhile.I really want the green crack seeds and i kno if i dont get them in the new year and wait for them.The price will be double...after all the green crack is supposed to be better than the elephant.Then i want to place one more order of autos.Autos would be perfect for a outdoor crop.....Keep watchin im sure its just goin to get better.

Jasper... you will be well rewarded when the harvest happens... I have my second crop of ladies 2 weeks out of seedling stage and look much nicer than last crop.... Now that I have mason jars of meds on hand I can take even more time to let nature run her course.... going to veg them longer... gonna give them more room to grow and am going to use more bamboo to spread them out to use the light better... the lessons we learn... but there is no more satisfying a feeling than kicking back and lighting up a phatty of private reserve of your own.... your ladies are coming great and may the gods of ganja smile down upon you... and for all those who wish to hijack your grow....FUCK OFF

Lol ....Thanks i cant wait to reap the rewards from these.I will be having my own private reserve stash within days the auto i have been showing off plus some blueberry ak47.And a lowryderxak. I looks like the low ryder will be longer than the others..Still all white hairs.Im noticing my seedy blueberry ak47 maturing more every day. i can see tiger stripe seeds ready to burst from her.Everyday they start to look more robust.I think im giving them a few more days....then im cutting and just hoping that there decent enough for xmas....i bought some plastic jars with rubber seals and stap shut clamps air tight from the dollar store.i cant see them from being an0 differnt from glass jars.Same idea just plastic with rubber seals and clamps.Im hoping i have enough smoke until the elephants are done.i dont want no early chop for them.And i kno ill need some good smoke to pry me away from doin that.

I agree w/ you 100%... i learned after 1 indoor grow... veg longer, more room and more light for the 2nd round...

ele lookin good my dude! i see alot of bud sites looks like your gonna be very happy!!!

Thanks...yea bud sites are popping everywhere.Im really impressed with these girls so far.Not a single sign of nute burn or stress. I kno they have been stressed more than they should.
Shit happens and im still working the kinks out.I think im goin to pollenate 2 of them this week one of the shorter ones and one of the bigger ones.Theres no reason for buying strain more than once.
(Except females that are autos)Would i be better off waiting a few weeks?im only doing a few branches off 2 plants. That should give me more than enough.

 

[warisnottheanswer]

yea wait at least 1 more week and then your beans will be done right on time!

so jasper what are you crossing? is it the elephant male i thought i read about before...

Funny u ask i wasnt planning on cross breedeing but i had some hermis due to shitty genetics bought from a local.For a guy that is legal and grows the shit more 50 plants @ a time u would think he wouldnt sell you bunk....I noticed seeds staring at me when i was in the garden today.Just one elephant luckly.I was thinking of just pinching off the seeds that i see now and repollinate it next week.ANY SUGGESTIONS ?Im Glad that my short one missed all of the action is her i want to seed a bracnh or 2 off.Shes the one thats like a bush.I cut 2 of my autos down today.The one was a seeded and i got an easy 50 and that was just from triiming it and poking the ones i seen out...i kno there is still lots left. The other well she just looked like she would be the best smoke.
1-3 is the knocked up elephant
4-My other tall beauty
5-6 is the one i plan on breeding with.One tall and one small.
7-8 more pics
9-12 Seen death today.I kno she coulda went longer but i want something new for smoke on xmas.
13-15 some bud porn of what im smoking until my girls are dry

 

[jackdirty]

aww i hate that shit, ive read if u let that hermie plant do its business those seeds are feminized, idk if thats right because i was reading up and i understood it as u need to take the pollen from the hermie and pollenate another female so the X female get pollenated by X pollen and not Y pollen so it generates a xx seed which should in theroy be a female idk if i got the x and y backwards but ya understand... i get lost too.. i never got past the 10th grade haha got my ged and became a carpenter wish i would have went to college for the parties tho i have a post with another person posting a link in it it explains it in further detail... sux aboutthe guy who sold ya bunk hermies mine where do to me frying out my hardwired 50 amp timer, so i had to hardwire two timers in two run all my lights

My main concern was getting a unstable gene....i guess ill just leave them and hope for the best...Then lablel the branches i seed.....Ged.....whats that lol.i have my grade 10 as well. I spent from 16 till 2 weeks b4 my 18th birthday in jail for aggravated assault.the teachers didnt kno shit in ther....Im a contractor now.I wont lye i have a hard time working for someone.Id rather make the $$$formyself and hire a helper when needed.Thanks for the advice ill just leave them and hope for the best is not like i didnt want seeds

Get yourself some Dutch Master Reverse and Penetrator. Its great for those strains that are good but tend to hermie. http://www.4hydroponics.com/nutrients/reverse.asp

 

[captain chronizzle]

bc genetics are known to be unstable. not knockin em, just stating a fact. they are also known to be difficult to clone. i have cloned the shit outta big bud, so i dont see a problem there.

have you thought about your plants selfing. i mean, you said it yourself, they have been stressed. its usually why they hermie, survival instinct.

First off...Not one of bcseeds turned hermie.Just the one i bought from a local around me i found out later they are kcbrains geneitics.I have cloned the elephant with success.I had alright succes im sure i would of had a better success rate but my areo cloner got low on water and i dont kno how long they were dry for.Even kno with all that i still had a decent success rate.
If there is anyone that wants to try bcseeds today is the day to order they got awsome sale on right now.I kno i have placed yet another order...I really wanted the green crack seeds instead of 500 thaey are on sale for 200.Almost all the best ones are on sale.If one wants to order i think today would be that day.And for you that wanna wait to see how this pans out.Well i guess you will have to wait till a deal like this goes on again...maybe next xmas.If i didnt like the progress ive seen i would not be a repeat customer.I think you guys too will start seeing the growth on my next update.I think if i had my heat under controll the whole time i would of been alot further.
NickNasty i pulled all hermies have you tried it Do you kno if it works ive read alot of reviews saying that its a croc...thanks anyways

I have used it in the past. It works best if the plant hasn't hermied yet. Meaning if you have a mother and you find the clones you take hermie then you use it on the next batch of clones right before you flower and then again 1-2 weeks into flower and it stops it before it starts. It doesn't work well on a plant that has already hermied < it may slow it down but it won't stop it once it starts.

Thanks...it was only the one strain i had that went hermie.I keep looking and looking and all seems well.Next time im @ the shop ill check more into it.I can see it being usefull if one knos their causing stress.

Hello Jasper 2478:

I've been out of touch for awhile and I just wanted to write in to check to see how your grow went with the regular Elephant strain? I tried reading a large amount of your journal entries but I got confused when you started talking about other strains you were growing.

Have you completed the indoor grow with the regular elephant? If so, could you provide me with an overall summary about growing that strain? What was your yield like and how tall did the plants get? Did you top them which was ill advised, or use back strap molasses during flowering as was recommended by the person at BC seeds?

I've ordered from BC seeds on five different occasions, saving my stock for this coming summer. I am not an indoor grower. I like the outdoors. I'll be growing 'Elephant Outdoors' as well as the Feminized version of 'Upstate'.

I didn't enjoy reading from the nay sayers who didn't even have the courage to order the cheaper strains from BC seeds. I mean they have strains for as little as fifty bucks. But if you're in the States, you take your chances by ordering from outside your country. If you don't receive your seeds, they've probably been confiscated in the mail. You are after all living in the land of the almost free!

Luckily for me, I am not living in the States. Every order I made - I received. And every order came with many top quality extra - bonus seeds for ordering over $300 each time. I have to many strains. So I'll store them. During the X mas holiday, the higher priced seeds were dropped in price dramatically so I ordered the new feminized version of Upstate. Before Elephant or Oracle or Euphoria Unlimited came around, Upstate was the top strain there. So I thought I'd give it a go next summer as well.

Thank you for providing us with a journal. So many great strains from BC seeds but you're one of a small group who has actually done the growing journal with pictures.

I'll check back in a few days. Thanks for updating me about the regular elephant strain.

Best wishes,

Buckets
