[barletta]

SSH #4 clone bush ~52 days. She is similar to my (lost) SSH #2. Looks like she will go a lil longer, though. Probably the best commercial cut that I have right now. Very skunky/deadstuff, little haze, little pepper.

Here is the last SuperSpice cut. I THINK it is the 'tweener' cut, but could be anything other than the runt (very sativa) or the Indy phenos. ~5 wks, and didn't stretch too much, but is taking on that sweet lime that the tweener had.

Here's the babes.

I have a bunch of 'mergency females, and I'm thinking that the tirfoliate is a male, as it hasn't shot a hair yet. Not 'stacking' balls, though. I'll use him to hit the 'haze round' that is going in, and some day, I'll see if I can make a higher % of trifoliates happen. That day is not on my At-A-Glance...

 

[SativaFan]

That's quite a brood you got going there!! LOL!!

Good luck with them.

[barletta]

Hey thanks, SF. I was thinkin of ya when I got the leaf shots today.

 

[barletta]

Well I was bullshittin with a buddy of mine about fukked up plants. Well not really fukked up, just underfed, and fukked LOOKING... Anyway, This is beast. She is [(Spice x SSH) x SSH(#2 fem nanner)]. She is one of the hungriest plants that I have grown. I didn't have any castings, and throwing kelp only slowed the munching for ~2 wks. I hit her with the AP 4-3-3 ~2 wks ago, and she had held till a few days ago. She will get some water 2moro, and when she dries, she dies.

~60 days since 1st.

The plant looks like shit, and prolly is ~10% lighter than she should be (20% lighter than she COULD be...), but I'm sure that there is no leftover N or Mg, so she will be as smooth as possible. Usually I don't notice the smell when I move em out for pix, but this plant was FUNKIN. Very sweet hazy smell.

 

[barletta]

Some of my Shit seedplant. This one seems to be just like the others. Fast, funky bubblegum. The others started to fade to onions/skunk as they ripened, and this one is still growing. Very nice looking plant. Shit is WAAYYY underrated.

EDIT - She is ~36days after 1st flower.

 

[barletta]

It's like watching grass grow...

I transplanted the #'s 1, and 5 SSH into gallons, along with the pakalolo along with the existing #1 in a gallon. The #4 I had in a coffee can of soil (~1l) got transplanted to a 2l. The target date for 1st cuts is 1 wk.

Here are the 7 confirmed 'mergency females. I had another that threw hairs first, but was a solid male. Not a herm, he was experimenting in college...
3 more sexing; Call the oldest 1 wk, and the youngest 1 day. No particular order, I'm trimming all but 2 for a single cola.

"It's like watching grass grow"

You're fuckin insane man. LOL

Your plants look good. I have to say. Looks like you just watered the bigger ones. They look "droopy", but very nice.

SativaFan

This little one is finishing fairly nicely. Never did branch. It grew like this after last trim/prune

SSH x SSH 68 Day 68 of flower

 

[barletta]

That plant looks good, SF. Seedplant #8(#6 momma), 68 days since flip? The budstructure looks similar to 'beast' (which in turn looks A LOT like her she-daddy, ssh2). Makes me miss SSH#2. I have #4, but it seems to be a lil smaller. #2 had a nice cheesy/skunky/pepper smell, and big fluffy buds. Beast is TOO fukkin stretchy, though.

Yeah, I just had everything over 2wks old out for a transplant/topdress. They are nice and wet. Now I just have to keep my grubby hands off of em and let em dry. That is one of my problems is I seem to think that veg plants w/little air exchange drink like flowering plants in a windstorm...

I decided to not use the trifoliate for any seeds. I have a TON of seeds, and need to stop taking chances w/males. I will build a separate lil box fer the boys when I start cracking the SuperSpices (for real), and JumbleSk. Transplanted the MWD female into a 2gallon today. I'm trying to keep her as tall as the G/Sk's, and keep the 'mergencies that tall (or under). I may have some struggles in the 'mergencies, as there are ssh f2's in there. May snap necks as soon as the last few show.

The plants in the (clear) cocktail cups are Superlolo - Pakalolo x SSH. I think there are 10 in there that will be transplanted and flipped when I make some room in flower. The indikilla's (pinebud x g13bx f2) are looking slow and shitty, but the 4 devils are crankin right along. I'll transplant and start a thread for the Dev's 2moro.

Smokin some of the first Shit from outdoors. Nice and piney/skunky/lung-explodey. Tastes GREAT, but be careful, cause you are gonna taste it twice. If you don't get it all out before you START coughing, you are gonna taste like a bong slide all night...

[the.toothless.herbalist]

u should get rid of it build another room lol
and also if ya stuck with jus tooo much seed then whynot donate some too mmmmm me lol

but serious m8 crackin plants an that top stuff


an also @sativa
them hazes look the nuts

 

[barletta]

red - Always a pleasure when you drop by. Couldn't help but notice the disproportionate # of Af/Hz buds in that pic you posted. I'm thinkin she (afhz) needs to at least get in my fridge, if not in my room... Shit is quality bud. For me, it has been a consistiently fast, stinky, heavy (although shorter), great smoking strain. I will be picking up a pack of shit with just about every seed order. It would work in just about any setup/situation. [loads a lil shit cut ~9/17]...

coughcoughcoughcoughcough Oh, BTW, I got to run trim from alotta S.Cough today, and she has these fat resin glands, which leads to BIG hash runs

Gm - It's awesome to hear that things are working out for you. In the states, you would most likely have a problem. Like I said, go hard outside. Your Gf will appreciate your new rippling arms, lol

toothless is my middle name - Hahahaha whatup! Yeah, I don't play much pool, and if I had my way there would be 10 raised beds right there on the floor down there. ~16 hoods on ~4 rails... Hell, I'll be happy to stuff the current room with loomenz.

Barletta:

Thanks for the nice words, but my plants look like shit. They'll yield OK for their size, 400W, blah blah...., but they aren't finishing like I wanted. They're f'in UGLY.

After I take a break, I dunno what I will grow next. If I can't get Nev's haze or mango haze, maybe I'll get some O Haze and breed it to my SSH x SSH. I think I'd do the same with Nev's or Mango too.

Not that I think it would be anything special, but just something fun to do. It's hard to imagine a shitty plant coming from crosses like (O Haze) x (SSH x SSH), (Nev Haze or Mango Haze) x (SSh x SSH)

SativaFan

PS

I just had a Stoner thought. Maybe I should plant some SSH x SSH and save a few select MALES. Then save the pollen till next february march when I grow out O haze Nevs whatever.

 

[barletta]

Some SSH.

L2R, SSH5 (2 coco clones, ~45days); SSH4 (2 cocomix clones, ~30days); SSH6 (seedplant, ~8wks since 1st); SSH4 (clonebush, ~8wks); and SSH1 ~6wks.

The lil clones. The ssh5's will be lucky to yield 14g combined. The 4's will be nice clones, prolly go ~10 wks.

SSH #4

Iffy (SSH#1) I'm starting to get this cut dialed in. Let her go dry, and feed kinda heavy.

EDIT - Was smoking GOOD Shit when I figgured those ssh5 clones @9wks. 7wks this weekend, will go ~60 days.

 

[barletta]

Gm - I just caught that 'bout just stick to herb... My stepfather told me, "Never commit 2 crimes at the same time." WORD.

Here is the SSH6 seedplant ~8wks since 1st

Here is the Hotchix seedplant ~75 days since 1st. No nanners, still needs a wk, but coming down 2moro.

 

[barletta]

SSH #4 ~8wks

Beast comes down 2moro, ~9wks. Needs more time, but is taking up way too much space. Needs time to ripen, not really grow as she stopped putting on any weight/density last wk.

 

[barletta]

Mo Beast

Gonna be fire smoke.

Really likin the looks of this plant - MWD, ~18 days

She looked like she had stopped stretching, so I up potted out of the 3.4l into a 2gallon. I have been making castings/kelp/guano/silicate 'coffee' concentrate, and the plants LOVE it. 2 days after they eat, it looks like I gave em a transplant. No Joke.

 

[Greenmoon]

looking real bueat! man

VERY nice there,
plenty of inspiration to get up and running again asap 2

cheers!

 

[barletta]

Whatup Gm. Do what ya gotta do, and we'll be here when you get back.

Ok, no secret that basketball is one of my 'things'. How about a 5 year old lil girl that has more handle than most D1 players? Does she have a brother, and a single momma? NBA BABIES.

If you have ever tried to dribble a basketball with the hand opposite the one that you write/throw/shewt with, devote 3 min of your life to this vid.

Hey Barletta!

I like that SSH1 in the pic above there. And that "Hotchix"? That girl looked yummy. Nice fat buds. Are they firm? I loe to squeeze those firm ones hehehehe.

My SSH x SSH plants are finally starting to ripen up I think....here on day 71. Trics are building and buds swelling but still they're still foxtailing more than I want. I cut the light to 11/13, and will go 10/14 here in a few days. I pushed them into the corners of my hut and rotate them. Bitches still making new calyxes. I'll put up pics some time.

Lookin good though bro. Well done
