if this works, it will be historic - a first in the history of this beloved plant.

this might be the best thing the internet has enabled to date... to pop hundreds and hundreds of premium seeds searching for something profoundly amazing.

i mean, who can do that in real life? just not gonna happen... but we can do it!

this very well could change the face of breeding and what is possible with the plant...

i am really looking forward to this!


from one connoisseur to another - GREAT IDEA LOOMPA!

Whats your secret @EVOKE on when or how to tell?
At first i would start off in solo cups and they would veg too long (my lazy ass) and they would get stressed out and stop growing.... so now every two weeks i transplant but i make sure to water a day before no nutes jus ph water... i go from solo cup to 1 gallon to 3 gallon containers perfect for my setup... after two weeks in a 3 gallon container i take my cuttings and veg for one more week and flip them but i really lollipop my girls im only running one light so i focus on my tops... im getting bigger and denser buds....

Nice Evoke. So vegging only 1 week after cutting there ok ? Considering in flower u have a few weeks for growth right do still many tops?

thats exactly why this will work. the farm is already a treasure trove of info and to have them same kind folks pop this many beans and share the info along the way....thats epic in itself because as long as this thread is open and info is passed then lots of people will benefit from this not just those in it. like Loompa stated as llong as we keep that brotherly/sisterly love and share what we find EVERYONE WINS.


i love this place and this type of togetherness is why. thank you Loompa for this grand idea and Logic for having us. sending out positive vibes to all.

I'll be sure to go over what I feel makes OGs yield well w the Jack's pro line if u go that route. Here is where we went to discuss next harvest...

So here is what I want to do for my grow :happy:

Amphoe Sikao, Thailand
Average temp 80-91/ Target 85
Average RH 71%
Photo Period 13.5/10.5 Veg 11/13 bloom

IMHO I believe by setting my environmental triggers closer to a Sativa dominant location such as Thailand I stand a better than average chance of Sativa dominant phenotypes.
I will maintain this growing condition throughout my grow and as the fall approaches I will modify the angle accordingly and drop in temp Just cuz Its gunna Be fun.
The steepest sun angle reached in Target City is 99.71 Degrees

To find the solar noon sun angle on the summer/winter solstice and spring/fall equinox for my location, 1st….find your latitude and subtract it from 90. Then add 23.45.

Thailand latitude is 13.74 degrees north of the equator. So...

90- 13.74 =76.26+23.45=99.71 degree sun angle midday
Here is how I will do it:
On the 21st June, the sun will rise 97° east of due south 99.71 midday and set 97° west of due south.
On the 21st December, the sun will rise 85° east of due south 85.00 Midday and set 85° west of due south
Moving the plants will be ez-est for me due to the larger open floor plan.
My feeding and tea schedule will be on a daily basis F, F, F, Tea F, F, F, Tea ect……
Weeks 1-6 Long Veg Week 7-till fin This is going to be something…..

Sending Positive Vibes to all

This would work on Sativas since they take longer in bloom but hybrids and indicas i wouldnt recommend.... im not in a hurry to turn a profit i baby my girls... i like them nice and bushy like a 70's porn stars muff....:smug:

U have 6 months Some are still waiting for beans. Plenty time.
Ya I'm still waiting on mine too but my issue will be whether or not Ill be able to start the Loompa stuff in time...half way through my grow now and I have to relocate afterwards or else I would be able to pop them upon arrival and start sexing them...do we have 6 months to start them or is that when they have to be finished by? Sorry I'm sure this was covered but im at work and can't read the whole thing

here you go bro
This is from Loopa's original post ....
This will be an ongoing comp that will probably go 6 months realistically, to let those who are waiting on beans to get them ( I know you guys, they are coming out monday or tuesday to you), then pop them and take off running. We will wait till the last person in the comp is done and ready. I will make a list and set a deadline and that should solve alot of waiting for everyone to finish as people jump in after everyone has finished flowering out. Those of you who have already run them or are running them now, you have a head start, which depending on how you use your time, you could possibly have a couple of advantages. But we're not gonna worry about the small stuff
