And after getting here:

And putting another hr 2day in here...

I'm done for tonight. Tony Parker put up 55 and 10. Only MJ and BigO have done that before.

 

[JessE]

BigO

The Big O averaged a triple double for an entire season once.

Nobody else has did that before.

Heya b cheers mate,will use it with pride....just wish i had somma the real thing ya know!they are some fine looking SSh man...
anyway didnt mean to go on just been a tad 'over it' all week lol, been smokin moldy outdoor purple 1,mango and chronic....lemme just say it aint that at all though meh



psdid you spot the pooch!?, JessE

 

[JessE]

Hey Green
How are you my friend? Ive been puffing some SSH myself, quite impressed with this marijuana! It can be down right frightening in potency, and grew like a jewel all the way through its cycle. Worth the $130 for a pack of seeds, one of the few varietys from Holland that delivers through on its reputation.

The taste, at least in my SSH is rather bland. Its not unpleasant at all, you hardly notice it to be honest with you. But the potency is undeniable, and the structure of both the buds themselves and the plant are quite respectable. Good marijuana mate, you've got to give her a go.

I think we should all have a get together at barlettas house, sure we can chip in and buy a pizza or two after the inevitable smoke out.(after he cleans the fucker, of course lol )

 

[Eddiesaw]

hey bar..i see you like green tea as much as me. Arizona is definatly the best you can buy IMO but IME homemade can't touch it. think ima pour a glass now and go smoke some of this nebula. way to go on the tidy up... Mr clean.. Mr clean.. haha

 

[barletta]

J - After hearing you say that, I'm SURE that we have a similar plant (#4). I just finished her seedplant-buds, and she cured to a VERY smooth bland earthyness. Kinda like leather with the faintest hint of musk/deadstuff. Maybe some kind of unknown cirtus if you GRIND it and dive in. That is the bud I did the SSH report on. I'm sure OD is different than ID, but you KEEP describing my #4 plant...

Hey, I was given a sign 2day. Take the SuperSpice in the funky skunky direction. I have ~20 total seeds from the 'tweener' SuperSpice (HAZE effect) and the ogk x g13/h daddy. The dad (in that dad) is the same as the MMG which is a tasty haze, so these seeds have some haze falvor waiting to come out. I have many superspices crossed with this dad, and with SSH, so Ima look fer faster, stinkier, heavier SuperSpices. I wish I didn't have so many seedlings (of other stuff) going right now. I'd drop 20 more superspices...

45 days. I drop 30 SuperSpice when I flip the SSH clones en Masse.
How bout ~15 ssh1 @12wks, 15 ssh4 @10wks and 15 ssh5 @9wks...

The ssh6 mom to be is looking fukked up. She is going to get a 'root drench' and transplant today. I figgured that I would have issues at some point from that clone (SNAPPED the main off on accident). There is plenty of healthy plant mass, and I see 2 lil rootlets, so she should be ok.

Smokin tweener SuperSpice ALL DAY....

 

[JessE]

Hey guys,
Starting to look pretty good in there barletta, keep plowing through the waste! Smoking haze and keeping busy go hand in hand together Ive found. I love sativas, however I dont mind a nice indica either.

Im not long back from deconstructing the green house, it went fairly smoothly. Things ultimately came to an end when I noticed the spring foilage had given way to the natural tendencys of fall and my cover was no longer acceptable. So I called it a season.

 

[barletta]

Yo, J

Ed - 'zona is the jam for 23.5 oz/99cent. Plus it gives me an excuse to go into the deli where I trade j's fer newports.

Mmmmmm.....
Just smoked a garcia miniature of iffy. Watched an exciting football game, and I got Marv, Reggie, and the Czar to break down a good Hou @ Por game...

I'm a guy that uses first inquisitiveness, then experience, then logic to draw conclusions. I had come to the conclusion that the NBA is pretty much garbage untill Christmas, starts to get better in Jan, then by Feb, the teams are playing together, and everyone is in shape.

I have watched quite a few games early this season, and they look surprisingly good. I wonder if it is the pressure from the foreign players, or the fact that the stars played in the olympics ('sleepaway' basketball camp fer NBA'ers). Whatever it is, the ball in general looks a lot sharper, imo.

My house smells fukkin incredible, and the high from this weed is PERFECT. As satisfying as I got indoors. Gonna take a big bowl hit just to blow it out my nose.

I pollinated the jumbleSk girls with the G/Sk male, but I will be keeping everything separate. I have 1:2 m:f G/Sk f2's; 2:1 Shit f2's, and 1:1 Shit x G/Sk (dad) cookin. I ate brownies and did very little else 2day...

 

[barletta]

Good Saturday Morning! Feelin GREAT 2day. No plants above deck, got to sleep on my $2g bed for the first time in over a month, 60+ deg for like a week now, so I haven't had to pump any kero (@4.70/gal). Got a miniature of some 'haze blend':

Haze Blend - A deliciously spicy concoction resulting from the fine grindings and jar tippings of various yum-yum hazes. We have traveled the globe to bring you a taste of the tropics. Hawaii, Thailand, Colombia, and because everyone raids Afghanistan, so did we. Warning - You must be THIS tall to ride the ride.

I'm lovin these miniature Garcia Vega cigars too. They are ~1/2 as much as dutches (bout 50 cents/ea). But with .5g-1g GROUND up, they burn ~15 min. Plus a 1g+ dutch every time is a waste of killer haze. So with a dutch to my head I either:
1. Get BLASTED.
2. Leave a big roach (sometimes not so bad, you can re-light a dutch within ~2hrs w/ little 'BLEH' factor)
3. Tear the hell outta the dutch to put a smaller amt of bud in, and not be overpowered by the 'backey.
It's tougher to find these, but a box of 5 at the smoke shop costs what 2 single dutches do @ a convenience sto. They are tough to roll, but I bet I've rolled ~2-3k+ leafed cigars, so I just go slow and careful. BTW, 2yrs @2/day = 700. 5yrs @1/day = 1800. Still prolly rolled ~1-2 a wk for 3 yrs that I don't figgure for, cause I was learning how to roll... When they smoke poorly, it is not bad etiquette to call em 'diapers'. I rolled plenty of diapers before I could break out a miniature and stuff a G in it.

Hey, maybe it's just the fact that the plants can stretch out a lil in the new veg space, but they are HAPPY to be in there. There are a few (1 EQ, 1 ssh4, the bigger iffy, pakalolo) that have noticeable new growth after ~12 hrs under the MH, and w/o a dark cycle. I think I understand '1 wk veg' now. I'ma leave the larger plants alone in the back of the room, and take a few pix over the next few days just to see if I'm crazy, or if they really are sucking up the 400w.

 

[barletta]

Here are a few shots of the Shit seedplant ~4wks that I'm using for f2's, and X G/Sk.
Next to the G/Sk #2

And a few shots of the Hotchix seedplant ~65 days. She will come down in ~7-10 days. She is not as heavy as she looks. Prolly ~1oz. (DRY - weighs ~5lbs now, I just watered it)

 

[barletta]

I've been slackin on the bud shots, so I pulled out the Pakalolo fer a lil bud porn.

Here is #2(9wks since 1st) on the left, and #1(10 wks since 1st) on the right. I'm smokin a sample of #1 from last wk, and NICE. I found these seeds a few places for ~30 bux, and IME they are worth it. C'mon Shanti, I can't wait too much longer...

Here is #1

#2

 

[barletta]

More #1. I could have had a big yield with her. I have a mom, and I'll be running cuts next to the SSH in a few wks. Very exotic smell (like haze but different) from the broken bud and in the room after smokin.

 

[barletta]

Some shots of #2. She has ~3wks to go. Like a J/O, I hit her with the foliar the last 2 nights (PBP, then kelp). I wanted to feed the younger plants to help em show, and I was sprayin around in the dark... Anyway, water and a few drops of LK and molasses from now till the leaves look like #2. Very subtle sweet floral smell. Tough to gauge, due to the height, but may be a big yielder if she fills out. I didn't really intend too, but both pakalolo's have some seeds in em. paka 1/2 x dude/ssh/(MAYBE shit). If you are reading this in ~6 mo, and are growing out some bagseeds from KILLER that you got in the NY metro, you're welcome, lol.

 

[barletta]

And some SSH.

#5 coco clone 5wks. Lower bud.

#6 seedplant ~47 days since 1st.

The males have been poppin up in the 'mergencies. I have 1 confirmed female, and 2 suspects. I'v had much fewer females this seedrun, I wonder if it's just #'s, or if my soil/cocomix has something to do with it. So far only the 1 confirmed female MWD, and I cut 3 males and a herm. I think I have ~3 or 4 left.

I put 2 ssh4 rooted clones into 'lazy hempy's'.
empty rare earth container, ~2 liters.
3:1 perlite:vermic
tsp maxicrop
tbs rare earth
tsp plant success
lil handfull of castings
big pinch of greensand

I want to be able to take cuts from these plants in ~2wks, so I figgured the hempy's will give me better growth. Watered em in with pee, molasses, and LK. The runoff was DARK (maxicrop/castings). I'll get pix of some veg plants in a lil bit. I'm gonna re-pot the moms. Whoa. Veg plants in gallons - Ima big boy...

 

[Greenmoon]

hiya barletta,lookin' SWEET bro!


ps keep em coming please...you got to cover my share of the load for a while now if thats ok hey?

 

[barletta]

Thanks, Gm. I'm sure that you will have some Thunder from Down Under if the pix of your (past) backyard are any indications for the future...

Ok, got a final female count on the MWD's. 1. Out of like 7 or 8. 1.
No problem, the 1 girl is ~10 days in, and looks like a sat dom hybrid that is growing herself. She is in a 3.4l pot. Depending on growth rate, I may go up to a 2 gallon bag in ~2wks. She is a thirsty, happy girl right now, NO signs of balls (the other one got me lookin).

I repotted all of the 'mergencies today, and cut a few males. 1 male STUNK like the indy superspice in LATE flower, but out he went. Like I said, I'm pretty sure I'll be breeding with the heavy, stinky plants soon enough. I have 3 confirmed females, and I have prolly cut ~5 males. The females are going into 1 gallon rounds of cocomix (has a sprinklin of all of the goodies, enough to effectively feed ~2 wks of flower) with the following:
Tbs rare earth
Tsp maxicrop
Handfull castings
Handfull bio tone (4-3-3 4%cal, 1% mag organic fert)
Big pinches of: Lime, cottonseed meal, P guano, rock phosphate, and greensand
Sprinklin of Plant success (3-1-2 mykes) near the roots

The trifoliate is still whispering 'female...', and is aggressive, short, and light green. Not stretchy but big. Lots of plant mass due to the 3 node action. I think that if it's a male, I'll do some seed with him, but if it's a female, I'ma keep a bunch of clones. Nice structure, not a 'slow' plant, and it grows bud from 50% more places...

Wonder which breeders have worked with trifoliates? If they can isolate the blueberry muffin, or 6wk finishers, or "WTF is in this weed...", I wonder why no more pub goes to the "fat freaks".

Smokin some EQ if y'all were wonderin... Hey redeye, if you like red eyes, run some eq. This bud does it to me consistiently. Very balanced (smoke a bowl=clear; smoke 3 bowls=HUH???) and strong enough for me. It doesn't have too much of a smell, but it should come out on cure. Kinda light and lemony skunky, but nothing to say 'wow!' over. Looks and smokes better than it smells. 1 big bowl rip of 'grinderated' weed will do me JUST fine. Hey 2 rips powered this whole post... [loads up more rips]

 

[barletta]

Ohhhhh.....
JP5......
Like JA8 but different..... :winkerama:

Here is the lone MWD (MWD= MW x (ogkush x g13/h) a.k.a. Dude. Mango Widow was from a pack of Dreamtime, 95% sure it's MW.

I'm no product pusher, but if you grow organic (or even if you don't, and have a spare coffee machine)try this stuff. Eliminates ALL late flower def's that lead to plants looking like the ones in the next post. Doesn't 'add' yield, just prevents hungry/tricky plants from 'losing' yield.

 

[barletta]

How bout 7 gallons for 3 Oz...

These plants are coming out 2moro AM, and all under performed. L2R are SSH #5 (clone bush) 65 days, SuperSpice (runt pheno, clone) 80 days, and pakalolo #1 seedplant ~12 wks since 1st. They all suffered first Cal then later Mg def's to some degree. The SSH least, due to the most soil, and quickest flower time. The pakalolo's 'transplant' soil was a lil off (hot or Ph off), so she struggled for ~a month. The SuperSpice was neglected (and too heavily seeded), and the ssh 5 is just a quick, tiny, frosty plant. In any event, I bet they all smoke like fire. I have shots of a different ssh5 coming up.

SSH 5 ~65 days

SuperSpice (runt) ~80 days

Pakalolo #1 ~82 days since 1st

EDIT - Fixed title, and I didn't have any crab/castings for the last ~2 mo. That's why these were hurting a lil, and why I felt the need to drop pix of the crabshell in the previous post. See how the plants look coming out 2-3 mo form now...

 

[barletta]

These are lollipopped cuts of SSH#5. VERY similar plant to my SSH#3 from ~may/june, cept this 1 stays even smaller. I haven't smoked the clones yet, but the seedplant was a nice smooth, leathery haze taste, with a strong (not KILLER) hazy high. I doubt that I can get to 1 Oz/gallon with no veg w/this cut, BUT it comes in @ ~55/60 days, so I guess I could veg some a few wks with my new HID veg area (big boy style... :rollmuthafukkineyes)

Here are a whole bunch of shots of the SSH #6 seedplant. Very big, smells nice and hazy (still has a lil citrus behind it, not STRAIGHT haze). Prolly ~ a month away. Just starting to yellow a lil, ~52 days since 1st flowers.

 

[barletta]

Mo SSH #6 (~51 days since 1st)
I would have trimmed harder underneath, but I was afraid that I'd end up with a 7' plant. I'm still getting used to growing with anything bigger than gallons inside.
