Let me tell you guys about Foo Dog #19..
#19 may not look like much now.. but me and this little guy have been through a lot..
I believe this was the first time I went from the mailbox straight to the napkins.. I was really excited to run these.. When I cracked the Foo's 19 out of 20 popped.. I put them in cups, and I was off to the races.. I had a little stunter right off the bat.. I culled it...as soon as I pulled it I paused and thought to myself.. aughh!.. I shouldn't have done that.. I could have brought that one back.. and then I was down to 18..
Time was flying.. I still had one in the napkin with no action.. I scuffed and buffed and reset with some fresh towels.. every night I would check that little guy to see if today was the day.. I can't say I have ever gone more than 5 or 6 days before I toss seeds if they don't crack.. I'm pheno hunting 20 + strains right now so if I get some slow rollers or anything that is going too be difficult to bring back they get the axe.. I guess this shows you how special the Foo's are too me..
Day 14.. I am starting to give up on this little guy.. we have spent some serious time together.. watched the whole Godfather Trilogy and a Season of Suits...this bean is giving me no love..
Day 21.. nothing from Mr Bean.. 12 are looking stellar.. 2 are a little behind and 4 are looking just plain weird..
I am guessing around day 26 or 27 (i had stopped counting by now) the sun was shinning down on me.. I saw a little tail start to emerge from little Foo Dog #19.. I was so excited I felt like yelling "Wilson!!!!" I was super careful rooting this one.. i was hoping he wasn't going wig out like the other 4 I eventually culled..
I know some of you are thinking his structure may resemble a Charlie Brown leaner.. but i am keeping my fingers crossed.. besides, you should know too win any great competition in America.. you have to have a story!
below #19 next to her brother or sister about a month ahead..
I am surprised how long it's taking to show sex.. I even got them a little root bound too see what was shaking..
As soon as Flying J gives me a photography lessons.. I'll post up some more pics.. I got the yeti's in cups and the Snow's coming!
