So far the IBL is growing the longest colas. The NL5/Haze has the most trichromes forming. The Mango AC has been the most sensitive to light/nutrients. The Nl5/haze x Widow has been growing as heavily leaning toward indica. My goal, however, is to see the differences in the smoke. Cutting rooted for all except the NL5/Haze (didn't take any - no good reason why either - just now realizing that as I type this).

Well that's one heck of a first grow report.
Nice choice of strains @strout, will be following this!
Growing in soil?

Greetings.

Peat and vermicompost rejuvenated over and over. The worms are fed very well - rock dust, kelp, high phosphate/calcium clay along with good peels and pits. I like putting the minerals through the bins first so the worms can digest them and the enzymes/bacteria can get a good start on making them available before they join the soil.

EARLY SKUNK CUT.JPG

An early skunk cutting - hoping to start drying those soon.

Of the three Mango AC, one is quite a bit more compact than the other two. None of the three have colas that are the length/size of the IBL or regular Mango. This could easily change with time I'm sure. I put some IBL, SSH and Mango AC cuttings into flower (all at the same time and all were about the same size/point of maturity) and the Mango AC has yet to show pistils while the IBL and SSH are forming their clusters. So I'm thinking the Mango AC is just a little slower with formation at the start and will take longer to finish but size will be there in the end.?. The SSH plant I've marked #1 put on a bunch this week and the NL5/Haze is still putting on the resin visibly more than the others. I'm sure you can tell in these lovely pictures but I figured I point it out again anyway.

i really like the clear cup idea, very healthy plants lots of vigour.
 
Surprised with how compact the Mango AC are growing compared to the Mango "reg" and IBL. I'd imagine there were different parents used for some of these as this packet wasn't marked F8 x AC as I saw some others shown. The Mango AC buds are getting dense but not running like the others. The pistils on all three are thicker than the reg and IBL and there is more resin also but not as much resin as the NL5/Haze.

Clear cup is very smart, I like it! Someone should make small clear pots for those of us wanting to see the root development..

I used to use clear solo cups with a couple holes punched in the bottom for rooting cuttings. But if you leave them too long the roots exposed to the light start turning green. So I used to just sit the clear solo cup into a white solo cup. That way I could always pull the clear cup out and check the root development and the roots were protected from the light by the white cup. Its very useful to be able to see when the cutting is rooted.

Beautiful and awesome grow! Congrats! Where can Mango Haze IBL and Mango AC be found? Are these lines auction only and when they seldomly appear on the auctions? I´d would love to try those genetics out.

I didn't know what would happen but I didn't think the roots would do well exposed to light. I have the clear cups inside other cups blocking the light. Holes are in the bottom of the clear cups and the outer cups also serve as a way to collect excess water.

Mango IBL #3 Cut

About time to transplant some of these.
 
IBL has been a hot ticket auction item and the mango x ac divinity was a recent tester for forums members.

I picked up the Mango AC at auction also. Popped up twice. As musashi said though, more economically prudent to wait for the testing to be done and the price to to be set when (if?) they are released, but I wanted to compare the strains and didn't want to wait. Wanted to check out the G13 x AC also but missed out as I have some G13 Haze, G13 Afghan Haze from Mr. Nice, along with G13 Hashplant, G13 NL2, and G13 C99 sitting around that I wanted to grow the G3 AC along side with.
