Got some porn to share. First up, Buckeye Purple F2BX1 day 31 and 4 new starts of the line about 7 days old.



I have 2 of the Banana Buckeye in flower right now. First up is #1 at day 37, 30 days veg with one topping. There is a definite banana smell coming off this gal. You catch it mildly when you put your nose in it, but when you touch the bud and smell your fingers it's pretty pronounced. Too tall to sit where I can get real good pics, but the two main colas are really fat and dense.

If you look close you can also see some pinkish/purple starting to creep into the lower buds, hope the color creep continues to large colas.



Here is the Banana Buckeye #2 at day 16. She had plenty of veg and multiple toppings. Really hoping she fills in like the first one because if she does, she is going to weigh out like crazy.



And the 2 gals together



Finally, I'm calling this group of starts Survivors of the 37. I was down and out sick in the bed all week, so quite a few of the seeds I sowed didn't make it. These were the ones that were strong enough to survive. Includes Buckeye Purples, Silver Buckeyes, 89 NL5s, Northern Buckeyes, and Gorilla Grapes. The older seeds from PJ and the CaliO's never broke, others died because they popped and I wasn't able to get the plastic off them so they rotted.

Counting down the days, mel! four more!

Mother's Day harvest. Frosty Buckeye #2. Concrete is the only word I can think of to properly describe the density of the bud on this pheno. It's fan-frickin-tastic. Gorgeous shades of lavender and pinks all through the buds, with just a touch here and there of the darker purple from the Buckeye Purple daddy. Smells fruity floral funky, really sticky. Very happy with this pheno, can't wait to toke her up.

Congrats on your gear going up for sale......... good luck with it.......... can't wait to smoke some buckeye myself.

Thanks G13, I'm excited about it too. I only did a small amount of stock to test the waters. Hopefully enough people will show interest to justify a restock, lol.

where are they listed again mel? i have been drooling over some of your stuff forever!

Thanks for the support guys. I've tried not to talk about it too much here as this site isn't about seed sales, it's about hanging with fellow growers. But, I am going to say, I feel like I'm cracking the glass ceiling when it comes to girl seed makers. Yes, there are gals out there doing it, but they all work with their male partners, and are more often than not the "face" of the brand and not the actual seed maker.

I do this alone, Hubby has a real job (and a black thumb, lol), It's not easy being a girl who wants to do more in our industry than just grow and show pics of buds on her naked butt. Like most industries, women are used as sexual objects to move product. It can be hard for a girl grower/seed maker to be taken seriously (because of the "stoner girl" image) But, with the help and support of so many good friends the last few years, I think that I might be able to make a little turn around in how women are viewed in the growing cannabis industry.

And I really do appreciate all the good friends who have been so encouraging to me during this process. Thank you.

Buckeye Purple day 37. While I was sick she went a day too long without water, got some browned out pistils. And, of course, the mites decided to surge at the same time, so a pretty good amount of damage. But, I beat the little f-ers back down, again.



Banana Buckeye #2 day 21. Too tall for the main light pattern, starting to show some signs of doping, so I moved her out into the sub pattern today.

The rush for seeds musta crashed the site mel....... lol........ 10 mins after and I still can't get page to come up.

Yes, traffic did bring it down for a few, but it's back up and running now.

I got in and buckeye is on the way........ I think.

rotf lmao!! dude, i was just talking to the guy who designed it - just before the drop he was trying to make sure it didn't crash, god that is funny!!! glad (i hope) you got your beans coming bro!

Mine are on the waty also. What happened to the Banana Buckeye? Planned on ordering a pack of it also, with no luck (no longer in stock)

I just replied to your thread over there drifting. I only had 10 packs of that I was able to send in, and they sold out in less than 1/2 an hour. I'm sorry you weren't able to get them.

Speaking of the Banana Buckeye, here is pheno #1 day 43. Buds are nicely dense, which when you look at them with those large sativa calyxes you wouldn't expect them to be so hard. Banana smell has really come on nicely, and a nice pink color is starting to work its way up from the lower buds. (Funny how color always shows down below long before the top colas, wonder why that is.)

She's a little trooper too, neglected while I was sick, then heavy treatments for mites. And though she has burn and damage, not a nanner to be seen.

This Gorilla Grape F3 harvested today at day 61. Nice large and dense buds that smell mostly of lemon, little bit of grape underneath. All of her sisters I've harvested from this batch of seed have had pretty shades of pink and purple in the bud, but not this girl. But her dry weight is going to put all of the sisters I've run to shame. If she'd gotten some color to her I probably would have kept her as a possible mother for the F4s just because of the size and density of the flowers, but she didn't, so I'm not, lol.

Looking fantabulous

Banana Buckeye #2 day 29. foliage might look like crap from critter treatments, but the buds look awesome.



Moved a neglected and root bound LiquidKid's Bubba Chunk from solo cup to 3 gal yesterday. Trimmed off all that wrapping root, cleaned the shoots off her bottom and set them to root, then buried her deep. I have no worries about her recovery, I've put this pheno through hell multiple times over the years, always springs back and ends up gorgeous with fat buds of lemon. This specific plant is going to be providing cuts to fill holes left by males in the flower room over the next 3 or 4 months.



I moved 4 3 week old starts of Buckeye Purple F2BX1 to 1 gal pots yesterday to continue their time on the veg train. They're housed in a cab under a 2ft 4 bulb T5. I also started 5 more seeds of the line.



And finally, set some seed to germ. 20 total. 5 Buckeye Purples, 5 89 NL5, 5 Buckeye Jack (98 Jack Herer x Buckeye Purple) 2 Dead Diesel (Deadhead OG x Double Down Diesel) and 4 of Bodhi's Genius Thai. They're getting their start under the 4ft T5.

Received my seeds in the mail today......... ordered on the 15th........ 10 Buckeye F2bx1 seeds and 5 Super Buckeye F1 compliments of Mel.
Thanks Mel.

that's was thru Firestax?

Awesome, I'm glad they arrived safely. Those Super Buckeye are barely tested, I've only had to time to start 4, had one girl, she was fun but not a keeper. Local buddy has run 5 or 6 gals, didn't hear anything bad back from him, and he only reports the bad. (You know the type, lol)

Looking forward to your porn thread!

This Buckeye Purple F2BX1 harvested today at day 56. She is the perfect example of how a short veg on this line makes for a reduced yield. If she'd had the recommended 60 days, instead of the 30 days, her yield would be doubled. Her dry weight will be acceptable, the buds are like rocks, but it could have been much, much more.

Also, the reason you don't see resin "sparkle" on the purple phenos is because the resin is purple, it's not going to show as "frost". Where you see purple on this plant, that's resin. So, if you're someone who saves the trim for hash or butter, only remove the green foliage when you big leaf or you'll lose a lot.



These 4 starts of the Buckeye Purple are at 29 days of veg



And I started 5 more, all 5 came up, and are 2 days above the soil line today.

Got my order today. Buckeye Purple, Super Buckeye and a couple packs of freebies.

Thanks Mel. Dropping these this weekend!
