at the chop... 65days

thats one heck of a cabinet my friend...
I usually pick at first ambers...this was told to me by a mentor so to speak and i havent really varied much from that...
That being said some stuff happens...Sometimes the early bird was more of an awake get your butt moving type of motivator..
Keep me posted on the results

Sweet looking buds

thanks everyone. i'll be sure to let you know cubby

wow short thats what i am talking about

and on to the next one...

pic 1 - 3 rooted clones taken from the original SL female.

pic 2 - on the left, 6 hawaii maui waui seeds that have germ'd, still waiting to see if the 4 remaining seeds will germ, but its unlikely. on the right, 4 clones just taken from the larger of the 3 plants in the first pic.



stay up SB

I am going to argue a little with your assessment of trichs, shortbus.

Clear trichs=Up energetic high
Cloudy trichs=The inbetween up and couchlock
Amber trichs=Couchlock

There are some strains that I have seen that don't actually get amber trichs--they kind of go from cloudy to black (degraded) and need to be harvested when they are cloudy. Sativas are generally taken when the trichs are a mixture of cloudy and clear. Indicas are usually taken when the trichs are a mixture of cloudy and amber. I always recommend going by the breeder's recommendations when you initially start growing. Every strain will have its own best time to harvest. Varying harvest times will only do so much to change the personality of the high--for instance you cannot make an indica strain like a sativa(an up energetic high) by harvesting while the trichs are clear+ or vice versa. And taking a 9-10 week strain (even a partial harvest) at 7-1/2 weeks IMO is a mistake. Let your plants mature before tyou harvest. If you want a 7 week strain, grow a 78 week strain. Also I would grow the kind of strain that you prefer rather than trying to vary the high by your harvest times (which really doesn't work well).

yeah, i chose my words pretty poorly on that day. good post THG

fun photo b/c not much is going on around here

hey short have you grown hawaii maui waui before. and whos the breeders.i have always wanted to see it grown.

its from sativa seeds. and no, never grew it before. breeder says it's a 7-9 weeks strain

well iam sleeping over until there done

just pictures.

having a little trouble cloning this one, but i think it's more my lack of attention then the plant itself. i'm 3/8 so far. with that said these 2 pretty girls are getting flipped next week.






update on the first SL harvest. she weighed in dry at 95grams. considering i could have fit 3 of her in the cab, i'd say it was a pretty successful first run. with a total of 5 1/2 weeks veg from seed, and 9 weeks flower.

as far as a smoke report goes, i'll be looking to MC to help me out. basically i'm looking for a handful of people with a mature palate to give me feedback on the SL.

well short you know i have your back

i get stoned all the time....not so sure about mature ... itlook like fire my friend...sure will smoke awesome...
great work and thanks for showing off...

flipped the switch on 2 southern lights clones tonight. the 3 maui waui that popped are looking healthy. a bit stretchy, but healthy non the less. i dunno whats up with this one SL clone. she was very small when i took her, but she's taking a seriously long time to get going. i suspect i need to re-inoculate her, good time to start a tea for all of them just to be sure. i just cut 6 new SL clones. crossing my fingers on these ones.
