Just germed and planted 3 california orange x ? indica F2's. They will be grown under 12/12 lighting from seed.

Conditions:
Medium: Soil organic - FF:OF(all I've got atm, no money for soil mix)
Light: 600w HPS

Will feed molasses throughout.

About the lineage:
Cali-O: recieved a few OZ's of calio-o from California a few years ago. Was assured the seeds found were definetly cali-o F2's.

? Indica: Had a friend deal some weight of 30/60 a few years back. Was some dank as lookin' nugs, got me high, just had seeds. I grew a few out and realized it was the fattest Indica I'd ever seen. Pretty good smoke, but a slightly bad leaf/bud ratio.

I used the best smelling cali-o(male), with the fattest Indica of the lot(as well as best bud/leaf ratio). This produced the first hybrid. I then grew out multiples of the strain, and crossed the(once again) best smelling male, with the most cali-o dominant female.

This gave me my current F2's.

Have heard lots of good feedback about this Dutch 12/12 from seed style of growing, but have never tried it. Figured I'd use these little gems as the test run, wish me luck.

Pictures will come when sprouted.

P.S.-Also, any comments/questions feel free.

Thank-you much with the kind words. It's a slow start, but will hopefully progress soon.

Pictures taken 8-27-07, 15 days from sprout. Very Indica thus far, who'd of thought :P


P.S.- Forgot to mention, they are in 2 liter "pots"(double gulps). Will not be re-potting.

They are now 21 days from sprout, and I've now got 3 females, cheers :hump:

Seems like the two in the rear are the same pheno, being a rough 75/25 Indica/Sativa. The other seems too be full Indica.

P.S.- Wow, haven't had luck with good M/F ratios lately. Always aboout 50/50. Was very surprised when I came too see white hairs out of em' all.

Have been having some heat issues in my cab, but am getting them sorted out. Heat stress is obvious, but I've gotten the temps back under control. Will be flushing tomorrow, and planning on chopping at day 65.

The two that were more sativa have a few hues of purple in them, but hard to see(Left and Center).

Day 50

They grew the way they did because they were in 12/12 from sprout. That causes the plant to grow one inital cola with a few tiny buds. Mine are not this way though. I think I had the light too far in the beginning so they stretched a bit, and then I had heat issues mid-late flower. I guess my yeild is about 7/10 what it could have been, possibly less.
