Update:
Finally got them repotted and trimmed up. I'll let them settle down for a week then start the flower cycle.

Gotta get that flowering clock ticking

I figured I’d wait a week after the re-pot but they’ve grown exponentially in the last few days. So, let’s go!

Got them in pots, finally. Turned on another LED for coverage and will wait till they get a little larger before I throw the HPS on them bc of heat and all. Put out some yellow stickies bc this new soil I'm trying out looks to have some gnats in it. Will water in some neem and mosquito bit solution soon. Isolated the males and found another HS female in their midst this morning. Got her potted up so that makes 9 HS. Had to buy a new pH meter as another one bites the dust. The reason for yellowing In larger pots now, they'll turn around and flourish soon in their new digs lol.


The Mango Breath (AB x MHI)? Unfortunately it turned out to be male. This got me to thinking about using some of his germ to make some seed in the lower branches of the HS as well as the MW. Can't hurt eh? Kept 2 HS males also but am undecided as to which one to use or to use just the Mango Breath on all of them. The MB on the left looks good don't you think? I lean to the taller HS (middle) for the more sativa influence but the far right plant (more hybrid) intrigues me. Your thoughts on the 3 males and whether to use them or not?

So for your HolySmokes about 8-9 weeks in veg before switching to flower mode Mu? I think that HS will be my first grow when I’m fully up to it and/or an all time favorite the Shark.

Always nice when you stop by brother! The Afghan Haze was a sleeper for me til I gave it a serious go. Wow! Flavor, smell, power. But the Holy Smoke is so much better with the Haze AC added IMO. Improved and more refined. Better yield, tighter buds and the high is sublime and very old school.

I love the look of those dried buds and your description Mu. I’ve been wanting the Old School effect for quite a while and it’s so hard to find but it’s there in the HS and will hopefully have my own soon…
I’m guessing that the Holy Grail is similar but a bit more Sativa looking and effects. What a great hobby…

Hello mu,

I assume you already have a big seed collection.
Some extra seeds in the vault couldn't hurt but on the other hand why make seeds when you are not likely to grow them out because they are not appealing to you?
For me only a strong male with stand out characteristics could make the cut.

Plants are liking their new pots and look great.
looking forward in seeing theirs flowers, good luck!

 

[musashi]

Good point @Swifty. Thanks for the feedback. I prefer NH combinations truth be told

Still, they have nice pistal developement for such a sativa dominant strain.

I admire the way you let your fan leaves fade and fall off on their own. It makes for a beautiful Fall like appearance. So colorful

The heavy rains are here to stay. I cut her down the day before. Considering she was a leftover after passing the rest of the crop to be finished by a friend and left to fend for herself, with an occasional feeding and watering from me, she came out pretty good. She smells of the sweetest afghani with a little hint of citrus.

@musashi She turned out to be a beaut! Even when you don't try, you still seem to knock them out of the park .

It's great to see you posting. Best wishes, I hope all is well.

[Swifty]

Enjoy her mu!
