Watering day for the MACdawg.... with you guessed it, a drop of raw unfiltered unpasteurized honey. 😉

The females are stretching and loving life. #3 and 4 are staying more level in the canopy, but #5 (Stardawg dom) has 4 of the 8 colas tallers, and her bud sites are popping up everywhere! Looks like I'll have to give #7 some support soon.

Local utilities doing work, so lights cut off as I was going to take pictures. #7 starting to let his nuts hang

So, my wife finally got around to trying some of the Trainwreck. I know, I know, it needs to cure, but it got a 9 day dry and the stash was low.... so...😜

She says she wants to cross Trainwreck with MACdawg for Sundrops now. Well, her wish is my command, so I guess I'll be copping a pack from CSI Humboldt in the nere future.

I am still going to collect pollen and dust each female, but I am also going to test the pollen on my hermed Strawberry Fantasy seeds. Why not right? Figured to keep myself on track, I could grow Shortie's seeds (my keeper pheno) and then pollenate a branch of each with #9s pollen. I could then alternate grows between the FOG (Strawberry Fantasy S1 x MACdawg #9) and Sundrops (Trainwreck x MACdawg F2)

Chiming in to follow this grow. Awesome setup! Love the idea of a controller like this. Looking forward to seeing the ladies blow up
Welcome, Glad to have you along! I'm still a rather new (by myself) grower, but I have enjoyed the journey and look forward to what it will bring in the future! I saw you contest post, beautiful bouquet! Do you have any journals going?

Glad to be apart of the forums finally! Thank you, that was a nice harvest of some Gary Payton 🙏 I just started a journal but I’m unsure if I started it in the right place. It’s in the coco coir section. Just took clones to fill a new flowering room I’m setting up now! “1600w DTW winter grow”

I'll have to check that out!

Sure, I have the AC infinity 69 pro and the plus version. Overkill for my needs. But one for each tent. What would you like to know?
Could you tell us how it controls the temp/humidity? Does it run in conjunction with a dehumidifier/humidifier? Controls temp through more/less ventilation?

The controller can be used to monitor or control devices. The devices have to be AC infinity to get full functionality, but you can run other devices/brands with thier outlet adapter. That won't give you the adjustable settings, but more of on or off.

It does control temp through ventilation in conjunction with thier fans. There are numerous ways to set them up, I am running my fan at a constant speed (little bit of math and lots of tinkering😉) to maintain my heat and rh within allowable parameters year round without adjusting.

I use the vpd setting to control my humidifiers, I'm a big fan of utilizing and adjusting vpd throughout a grow. Plus I found that it helps buffer between lights on/off spikes in humidity (atleast for my setup).

I really wish I had the money to upgrade all of my equipment to AC infinity (besides tents) and truly utilize the controllers.

the technology advancements associated with indoor growing has come such a long ways, that’s incredible! Thank you for explaining how that works

@American_Agriculturist , not sure if that helped much, but yes the technology and even the science of how cannabis grows is being documented more fully now so we can start to understand the how and the why's. Fun time to be growing that's for sure.

I'm not the sharpest or most used tool in the shed, but if I can help in any way please feel free to ask anytime

Good morning Farmers! Just a little rant from me today...

I think that one of the biggest mistakes society makes regarding cannabis is that THC is recreational and CBD is medicinal only. You have no idea how many times I've had to explain how the thc benefits my ptsd and depression. What makes it worse, California's updated laws makes being a medical user obsolete.

That is really the reason why I am trying to develop a cultivar that works for my family. I think everyone should, think about any other hobby fruit or vegetable farmer that eventually works a line to an exceptional tomato or eggplant, etc. My hypothesis, and it's really more of a wild hair up my ass, but I believe that the continual hybridization with ruderalis, feminizing without stabilizing, and chucking F1 to F1s is what has exacerbated the amount of mutations seen and documented.

Look at it this way, if every home grower (that had the time, space, and know how) bred and grew their own distinct cultivars, the genetic pool would begin to be refreshed and I think we would see a great improvement to this beloved plant.

Of course, I do smoke ALOT 😜, and who am I to make such claims? Nobody, that's who I am, just a guy growing a plant and loving every moment of it.

I hope you all have a wonderful day, and as always, stay water my friends

He is stacking sacks daily. I pulled out my loupe to see if any indication of trichomes were present. I think so, but tough to tell at this point. I see some little "sparkles"😜

Still time, but I was expecting him to shoot up more. Still looking studly to me😉
20240218 074349
20240218 074507


Sacks are forming nicely, it's so fun to watch since males aren't really documented much.
20240218 074439
20240218 074652


Are those trichomes??? They look like trichomes😜
20240218 074531



I'll let him go as long as I can, wish I could grow full term, but I'll have to kick him out at start the next cycle at some point.
