Haha, Yeah I wouldn't sell it because as soon as I did I would probably need it.

for real huh...lol good ol' Murphy's Law..

So does anyone know for making beans do i have to dry and cure before looking to see if the pollen worked and if there are any seeds in the bud i pollenated? Just curious... This is my first run and im looking at this one bud like it is a xmas present and has something i really want inside of it...lol Also I haven;t cut yet and they appear to be still pumping out white hairs and continues to keep swelling, i am at almost 11wks now and the anxiousness is killing me.. as long as the trichs are mostly milky and amber can that be considered done? even though it continues to swell.... First time growing this strain and don't want to cut to early.

Hey what's up bro? I don't know much about breeding and making new strains but I ran across this thread the other day and thought you could get some pointers out of it.

I also ran across this thread by the same guy as above that can estimate when your plants are done by looking at some pics of your plant.

He is a respected member by most of the community and a moderator as well if that means anything to ya.

Hope this helps you out some.

Peace.

Drop... You are the man... that is very helpful. Thank you! I will check it out and try to get some more pics up.... Thanks bro!!

Anytime my friend, I'm glad you found it useful.

Peace.

Internet had been down, but here are some comparison pics as promised... Just got it into jars and letting it cure.... already got next round started and built a recirculating DWC system... will get pics or a new journal going real soon...

Oh and the whole pollen experiment was a bust... pretty bummed about that, but got some good threads from friends on here to read about pollenating and still have more white russian pollen so perhaps there is still some chance of cross breeding some strains in my future....

Looking good. So are you gonna grow this out again or you gonna go with something different? Oh and how many days total did you flower?

I ended up going 75 days total in flower.... Yeah i am done with the NL for now... I am doing 4 Fire OG Kush that i just flipped tonight to 12/12 i have had this strain for a long time and it always come through for me so i will do a round of this and then try another strain for cross breeding.. i have a lot of reading to do before i try that again. What strain are you growing right now Drop? You said you were gonna do NL right?

I'm doing my last bag seed grow ever right now. I got one that's like 17 days into flower. I got 8 NL sprouts going now in some starter plugs that I'm putting into dirt tomorrow, just long enough to determine sex and weed out the males. Then it will be time to take clones for DWC.

I've never grown any top grade stuff before until now. I can't wait to start growing some high grade weed.

Yeah i will get some curing pics up to... looks like it is gonna be right around a 7oz harvest.... More than i thought for sure... Hopefully the next round is even better.

i hope my girls don't take 75 days total in flower I am 40 right now I don't want to wait another month, but if I have to I will to make sure they are done right. Can't wait to see your curing pic's brotha and see what your final total is for your weight!

Yeah man the wait was definitely an enduring one....lol

And here they are... it is still curing but is smokeable.. This will keep me going for a while..

LOL Thanks Drop!!!

So got my new system built over the weekend and thought i would share.. It is a Under Current Recirculating DWC system with (4) grow sites a (1) control bucket which is equipped with a float valve hooked to a res. with straight ph water and an airstone to keep it circulating. All the buckets are connected with 1-1/4" PVC and are slipped into the buckets with the GH 1-1/4" Grommets (Also Siliconed those into the buckets for extra measures to guarantee no leaks) that i got at my local grow shop. I have a 835gph inline pump pulling from the back and pumping back into the control bucket. Each bucket has (1) 6" airstone and each grow site has a drip ring to help me water from the top until the roots drop... my next investment will be a chiller which will link between the pump and control bucket so i can maintain cooler temps.. right now using the ol' frozen water bottles, but those melt way quick... We'll see how this one goes.. i had some overwatering and ph issues at first, but everything is controlled now and seems to be taking off.. fingers crossed..

Oh and a couple of pics of my Mothers at the bottom... Gonna get some good clones off of them...






Mothers......

It never surprises me how pot heads can build shit that plumbers couldn't think of!!!! Where there is a will there is a way! Good looking set up bro! Congrats!

Right! Who said smokers are lazy...lol i guess with a little stoner ingenuity anything is possible... Thanks HS!!! Not sure if i am gone do a new journal or just keep adding on this one.. had to share.
