I do a kind of purging. Instead selecting what male I want, what I do is to "unselect" and kill the ones I don't. There is a reason for that: the only way to really know what a male delivers is to grow his children, and anything else is speculation. There is a "proper" way that consists in...

All of the plants have been sexed after two weeks 12/12, that`s fast and nice. I've already sort all the specimens: 14 females and 10 males. I've discarded half of the males and I've kept these: They'll be kept in 1l pots to be used for some sativa crosses. Cheers

Interesting thread. I agree, Sativas tend to have funnier hairstyles. And yes, it is a genetic thing. I like very much the occasional redhead, but they are very rare and their effect tends to be different. I know some varieties that have been heavily inbreed that have very short pistils. Long...

Five weeks and a half. Fattening starts! They look gorgeous. I'll chop them probably at 8 weeks due to LED lights. Under HPS they'd need more. Cheers

Harvest day at only 7 weeks for the Thai Angola Mextiza. I know it is too soon and they are immature but I can't wait more, I need the space in the tent to put the ACE Ethiopians. Anyway, remember this run of seeds was just to check the quality of the Mextiza male I used (that resulted to be a...

New plants growing. I didn't have much success with the SSSDH x Mextiza, but luckily I keep some more seeds. These are the ones in the left columns. 10 out of 12 ACE Honduras (right side) These are the Ghana x Mextiza. Ghana, sold by CBG, was the most different landrace sativa I've ever had...

Bangi x Ethiopians grow very slow for a F1. I've been feeding them half strength as I usually feed extreme sativas, but I've decided to fuel them up. They have dark wide leaves, strong structure and an incredibly strong root system like Indicas do, they are asking for a repotting. I'm very...

They are stretching. I believe they need some more food, I've been giving them half strength food but I'll change that. Some diversity and generally red stems and very pale leaves. The branchy one. Cheers

You don't need to turn off the tent. A little indirect light isn't going to fuck your buds up for just a few days. If the temperature isn't very high and the RH stays over 40% the drying process will be OK. I have experience with this, I live in a very humid place and cardboard boxes just don't...

These are the Mextiza clone I keep and the Meao Thai x Angola (Angola Verde - Liamba). These couple have been flowering for exactly 10 days under quite a lot of LED power and they did stretch a little but I don't thing they'll stretch more. 60 cm for the Mextiza and 80 for the Thai Angola, a...

Yes, in fact many people uses LEDs just to get the grow cooler. Before COBs I had too much heat in summer and it was a hell to grow, so I usually stopped for a couple of months (July and August). But now I see that the temps are so low in Winter with COBs that the plants were growing a little...

Four weeks and a half. Nice bud building, I believe these are going to be the most productive of the Taskenti generations I've grown. Cheers

I'm impressed with the amount of resin and the quick maturation of these Thai Angola Mextiza plants. They've been just 6 weeks flowering and I believe in a week I can start harvesting them. I see quite a lot of variation due to Thai Angola being an F1 and passing different genes to the...

Not much to show, they don't grow as much as I expected. 9 days 12/12 and I've already sort some males and females. And these are most of the Bangi Haze Ethiopian still vegetating. Cheers

Looks like a heavy producer. Anyway, I don't understand CBD strains. I smoke to get stoned, I'm not ill, fortunately. Enjoy

I managed to put these twentysomething Ethiopian and the 6 Malawi Panama into this little 80x80 tent under 200W. I have too many things in the flowering tent already. These have been flowering for just some days and it looks that they have finally started stretching. As soon as I sort their...

Then you might go with the Citizen. I started spending money on Cree but later I realized you can push the Citizen up to +100W each and they keep a good working regime. Now I'd setup CLU058 at 100W, that's a good power ratio at good specs. I believe that mixing heat and spectrum of old HPS...

What I learnt with COBs is that not all strains react the same way to the change of spectrum. Once you get used to grow a strain for years, it is shocking to see how the plants behave like if they were different ones. The most obvious one is my Jack Herer. I have some pictures from the times I...

I wanted to share a thread I started in a different forum. The idea is to share my experience with as many people as possible. After 20 years growing indoors, two years ago I decided to replace my old lighting kits (Sodium lamps with magnetic ballasts and adjust-a-wings) with COBs...

26 days 12/12. Not even 4 weeks, but once resin pops there is no stop I have cuts of all these beauties. Cheers
