gifted mid flowering clones for christmas! jamaican, the white, bubba og

the caregiver said i could get some cuts of whatever i wanted


the only caveat is that they were all flowering, some had just started like the green crack and the bubba, some were much further along like the white and this weird one that gets very dark black ish, the jamaican had been flowering the longest, i am most excited about the jamaican actually, it is a very long flowering sativa, this one's mother was grown outdoors and is still not ready to chop yet even though it's almost the new year haha, i will have to have much patience with this one, here's a closeup


not sure the name of this one, but it gets super dark when flowering, i have seen them growing it a few times and just couldn't believe the color change


this is how they were transported


i had to rearrange to accommodate the new clones, fortunately i had this shelving unit handy!


i was also gifted 2 maui plants, they are both from seed and haven't shown sex yet, both have a case of white flies, so they are going to hang out in quarantine and get sprayed down with spinosad spray


here's a couple shots of the veg area



this lowryder #2 girl is getting tons of lowryder #2 pollen dumped all over it


lastly, here is a weird looking f13 baby

f13, true blueberry sprouts, og x island bud male balls, led and hps fun

here is the 1st of the f13 to pop up, a patient i know was kind enough to gift 3 to me


here are 3 true blueberry sprouts, i was gifted these as well, we both planted some on the same night, kind of a project of sorts for us


so this is my clone/sprouts cabinet, powered by 3 26 watt cfls in 2700k and 6500k for now, it is on 24 hours a day


check out the hollow stems most of these afghan x lowryder #2 f1 girls have


here's the veg area,



and here's the flower box


blue satellite #2.2 @ 51 days flowering


bagseed acapulco gold @ 32 days flowering


sour diesel @ 53 days


thai @ 96 days


on the left are 2 afgan x lowryder #2 f1 girls, on the right is petrolia headstash


this blue satellite #2.2 plant is in quarantine for another day or 2


this og x island bud male is dropping lots of pollen, i need to harvest this stuff


here's the male area for now, dudes got to rough it but they do get a small amount of natural sunlight through the southern facing window a least


this is a lowryder #2 male, i came in the other day and found out on the floor, dirt everywhere, all smashed up, he seems to be recovering though

outdoor southern california winter plants

here are a couple small plants i'm trying outside right now, it's beautiful and bright in sunny southern california today, i'm at 34 degrees north, a lovely warm 85f, 1st is a mystery bagseed girl


here is an afghan x lowryder #2 that has yet to show sex


lastly here is a purple spinach plant, this is the lone survivor from neighbor cats digging everything up, i dug everything up and replanted another furrow of the spinach, this one came up a day or 2 after and was outside the new furrow, a leftover from the cat destruction! now i am using chicken wire and the cats don't want to mess with the dirt haha! still waiting on the new batch of spinach i planted to start popping up

reorganized the veg area, led panel - hps - led panel, setup a cfl sprouting/cloning area

i have reorganized the veg area


the lighting goes led panel, hps, led panel...i have plans to switch from 24 hours of lighting a day to 20/4 or 18/6


the plan will be to have the first led panel turn on first, an hour or 2 later the hps, an hour or 2 later the other led panel, they will all shut down in the opposite order...i am thinking, maybe it will cause the plants to bend towards the light as they do with the sun, i have been observing my small outdoor plants and see that they bend towards the east in the am, straight up around noon, and bending towards the west in the pm, i wonder if the plants like this and want to try to simulate it indoors, the change in lighting schedule will probably happen over a weekend and not a work night, since i'd like to be awake to observe it and make sure things are happening correctly and in the correct sequence


blue dream mommy gonna' gimme' some clones soon, maybe tonight


thai mamma'


the flower chamber



afghan x lowryder #2 needs more N

petrolia headstash undernuted @ 64 days flowering


a nice chunk of thai cut right @ 13 weeks flowering, i tried some right at 12 that was awesome, i'm sure this will be too!


here's an outdoor afghan x lowryder #2 which has not shown sex yet, next to it is an heirloom tomato plant that i started inside


here is another outdoor plant, this one is a volunteer rescued from a potted potato plant that was once on my balcony before i moved, it has just started to show signs of flowering, it is a girl, it will be small but we'll let it keep on going anyways, this one is a survivor, my dog ripped it out of the ground several weeks ago, so happy it survived


here we have setup a separate sprouting/cloning area with some cfl lighting, we have 3 dj short f13 seeds planted, 3 dj short true blueberry seeds, 1 mmm's bagseed acapulco gold x purple kush, and the blue cup on the bottom right contains 2 poppy seeds


here is a male og x island bud
