viet black x thai update, milk water for fighting mold, winter so cal grow status

here are 3 ace viet black x thai plants under a sunshine systems glowpanel 45, about 5" away from the lamp, 14 days old


here are 3 more of the same age under a haight solid state ppf-400, about 12 inches away from the lamp, 18 the first week of their life


here is our lone surviving jamaican girl, it is a reveg clone, the mamma was outside and still not done by early december, this will be a patience tester for sure, worth it i'm sure though


i've been having mold issues, so i thought instead of spraying the plants with a 1:9 milk:water solution, i could dunk them!


wow that was a bad idea, perlite in my coffee even lol!


and of course we have dirt all over the poor flowering plant, needless to say i abandoned this and picked up the spray bottle


here is our winter patch, it got down to about 36* last night, it was hailing earlier today, tonight it might get to 34*


here is the harvest of a random volunteer bagseed plant grown outdoors, this was a non viable looking bagseed that was chucked into a balcony planter, it only got 5 hours of light a day outside, we had moved and i transplanted it to our new back yard, i placed it too close to a fence so it wound up getting a few hours less of direct sunlight that the day provides, the herb has bugs in it which are a pain to pick out, it is very loose and not dense at all, it has a kushy earth funky slightly skunky smell and taste, the effect is mellow but not couch lock inducing and it only stimulates a bit of hunger not too much. i took 2 clones from it a week ago, i know it's not good to take clones so late, but once the smell really started to show i just had to try and keep these genes going, whatever it may be

s og x island bud f1 mid flowering, all led grown

not large or phat or anything, my first all led grown girl, i have harvested pollinated preflower seeds from it already from a lowryder #2 male, i let it go a week then pollinated the lower buds with pollen from an s og x island bud male so hopefully i'll get some good f2 beans from this as well as the preflower f1 seeds
