I am in my last two weeks of flower myself using "Humbolt Big Up" powder which 22 P 33K, 1 of my gals is very dank with pinene a bicyclic monoterpine,the other gal I have grown before and I have a clone of it going as well, I feel the stress of Harvest approching, looking for cloudy trikes and readying for flush. SS
i see flush starting and a picture perfect finish. goddamn that trichome coverage is gorgeous!
Don't really have one set. But next Wednesday would put them coming down at around early week 10. So thinking I might hold tight, feed today and tomorrow, then rinse on Wednesday for the last week.
It's pretty nice hey, not as caked as the spiked punch was.
I've always said, genetics is the most important variable. I'm truely blessed to live where I do and know who I know. The broken coast chain of islands in BC has been sort of an epicenter for weed growing in Canada for nearly 50 years and I'm good friends with a lot of professional growers, and a couple extremely talented phenohunters. And I mean theyre fairly large scale. Hunting for a good strain to grow has never been a problem for me. I can often just go to my buddies place and grab a dozen 1g samples to try and pick one lol. But most of the time he's just like here.. you want this. Trust me. And he never let's me down.
i see it and know it. i'll likely kill off the other mom of this strain. i'm just not like "wow, i need to hold onto this" ya know. even the sample bud i've smoked wasn't terribly impressive. it didn't help the anxiety or stress, nor did it induce the "oh shit" feeling i've had from other shit i've grown or picked up from the dispensary. it's not even terribly pretty imo. especially held up next to the shit you post. jury is still out for post-cure smoke though. depending what that shows might change my mind. and with cat shit in the garage, well... opinions might shift lol gonna be a big lift though.
I'll be honest, most times I grow from seed I'm disappointed. I've been spoiled.
to have the opportunity to do a phenohunt on that scale... that's really where you find the gems. the shit that gets branded elite. truly elite. not like 2002 OG Kush that would hermie with a pinhole light leak. but, elite -- checks every single box and produces the highest grade top shelf without a hitch and despite mistreatment.
Exactly. And he considers himself small scale. He's always telling me about other dudes that are big in the industry that crack tens of thousands in a run and might only keep one, or none.
