Sideways roots? Nah, straight up roots.
Think my humidity is high enough?
I was raised on Pinconning Paralizer, the original breeder, from Pinconning, live about 8 miles from me. I personally got to see his operation, it was fantastic. It was the best I'd smoked at the time, that was nearly 40 years ago.I'm cutting the lower buds on my Pinconning Paralyzer .

So I've been looking forward to getting some cuttings off of a plant my dad ran last cycle and re-vegged. It was from a 10+ year old seed, ended up being some kind of blueberry.
Now, I will say this: My dad really really sucks at growing. Not that he doesnt know how, just that he is a cheap ass lazy mofo. He doesnt buy decent nutes, he doesnt pay attention to his plants and is super unclean. So he constantly gets pests.
Well, he's re painting his grow room, and as a result, he put the fucking plant outside. It's been out for days now. Its frosted over every day this week. He just revegged it, then he puts it out in the winter cold and short light..... SMH.
I tell him all this shit to his face, so it's not like I'm trash talking him behind his back. And he knows better! This is the guy who taught me how to grow years ago.
Anyways, now I'm praying the plant lives long enough for me to get over there this weekend to clone it. Hope he hasn't royally fucked it. Cause even with his shit grow, it had great flavor. Most blueberry I've tasted in years. His best guess is that it's the original blueberry.
It makes me so fuckin mad he half asses grows now. I wont even go in to his grow room anymore cause of the potential for contamination..
Hope in the next couple weeks I'll have good news about the blueberry. Cross fingers or whatever.
Holy shit , i got the same exact story , except now hes 90 , been doing it since he was 70, i go to the house , i say what the fuck did you do to the timer, ugh it was broken i fixed it , why the fuck is it 1000 degrees in there , uh , the fan noise is annoying while im watching tv , why are they bone dry ? Why are they drowing ?So I've been looking forward to getting some cuttings off of a plant my dad ran last cycle and re-vegged. It was from a 10+ year old seed, ended up being some kind of blueberry.

20 years of this shit , same story, my wife says he (dad) just likes fucking with you to argue..... its nuts
And now he has dementia and we are at bufger king , anc he goes , hufrh up and finish eating , we gotta go water the plants....
I told him we shut it down 2 years ago , and he starts arguing with me good luck !!
Oh yea , remember when we wouldent enter a grow area unless we changed cloths etc.....
What happened to that philosophy ? , it was like rule #1 back in the day...
I used to keep a plastic trash bag in my trunk with clean cloths before i went to any grow...
You just reminded me .....
Yea , that might be my problem , im not out there getting new cuts , just holding on to my old stuff....Yeah, but I must admit gelato is pretty damn good. I would trade it for the original skunk in a heartbeat though.
I cant wait for all the old strains to come crawling out of the hippies gardens and start making seeds for the rest if us. If any of it is still around.
TBH I would never claim that to be the original blueberry. There is no way to know. I would just call it blueberry and when asked I'd tell the story. Lol
He's got other old seeds too. He's just got to find them. He moved a few years ago and still hasn't unpacked everything.
For now, gelato will do. Its flavorful and strong.

No disrespect if thats what you got growing , i didnt even think to look .....
Where should i look to get a good seed or cut , i think its time i check out the new generation.....
Are those roots growing "up" ? Thats funny....
