They're growing as expected and many still not ready for a larger shoes. I'm hoping to take a day off tomorrow and up pot a few. These are 5-6 weeks old.

Can't get enough of this one. I want a purple mom🥰

All in need of their second Topping. Hopefully I'll get to spend some time with them today. I'm in no hurry with these and plan on Topping twice more for 8 colas each, males will be composted unless one is exceptional. I'm mainly growing for a mom and some quality smoke.

The weather has been pretty nice this past week. Rain 7 days ago but sunny and warm since. Night time temp still dropping near upper 40's lower 50's so slow growing still but I've noticed better growth then the past couple months.

These are all nearing 3 months of age. If this had been summer they'd be read for flipping by now but I'm in no hurry with this grow and can give them plenty of time.

I really cut a couple of these back aiming for 8 colas from a single stock. Running low on coco or they'd have bigger pots by now.

They're not sexed yet, soon.

I started planting seeds end of December

Seems like a year ago🤣

Glad I had the time and energy as when I do flip these they'll have 8-16 colas. Short and fat and several pounds of grapes and berries🥰
 
These two
20250502 180845

Got flipped May 1. Tucked in with the Loquat tree
20250502 180850

for protection from the wind. They're strictly for smoke and will come down around July 1. I'm about out of all the GDP from last harvest (I gave most of it away) except several seeded plants that are still hanging in the garage and need to be processed🤣 which I need to do soon so I can run the GDP x Blueberry Hash Plant crosses, currently my 2 favorite strains.

I'll post some better pics of these. I can almost taste them❤️

They're in 2 gallons of coco coir and they'll be flipped next, probably 6/1

and yes I see the aphids. I check daily and they get sprayed about once a week with neem oil to control their numbers. It's part of growing in a somewhat outdoor environment.

I do a lot of leaf reading
20250503 164725

Its been a week since they were sprayed last. The insect load isn't too bad
20250503 164820
20250503 164832

Not all those spots are insects but aphids give live birth and can become an infestation quickly so I've got to monitor them. And the reason I leave the older fading leaves on the plants. And they fade when I miss fertigations (4-5 a day is ideal) and they get one AM and one PM many times when work gets in the way of my growing🤣

#'s 7 & 8

These 2 were switched from coco coir to soil and were flipped last week. I plan to give these 2 away to a buddy learning to grow.

I was gone all last week and several plants were not watered well/at all and they're in coco coir. I had set up the auto watering but used old hose and tubing, a few of them were/or got clogged as they worked before we left for vacation. All the planta will be fine and I'll be Topping #'s 1 & 2 and keeping clones of #1 mom. #'s 3 & 4 will get flipped end of the month and I plan on putting #'s 7 & 8 in soil back into veg before giving away end of the month.

I love this one and haven't had a mom in a while so I feel I scored🥰
 
Cleaned up #1 & 2

Took 3 small lowers from 1 and 8 tops from 2. I'll clean them up, clip the leaves, add another cup and put them into the hot box.
 
So, I got me some Granddaddy Purple Autos and they're lookin' good.
Real small yet, only 2 weeks old, but I'm hoping for good medicine.

I accidentally crossed a beautiful GDP girl (came up with a tomato I planted in the garden) while I had 10 Magnum x Dragon (Magnum is an auto the Dragon reg that a buddy accidentally made) and now have an S2 GDP x Magnum auto cross. I stopped working on it after getting the Blueberry Hash Plant and Mother's Milk. I ran out of room🤣

I've got seeds from both S1 parents to cross with the S2's to strengthen the line. I really need to get back to those. One of these days, maybe😉

4 1/2 weeks since flip. End of this month should be done. I've taken them at 56 days and at 70 days. Just depends on the plant.

These were switched from coco and hydro to soil. Took a month and they didn't grow. I was going to give them away but they're gonna get clipped and composted. I'll give away a few cuts that I'll put in soil right after they root. Do not recommend trying this at home🤣

They all got a water change today. One of these will be my new mom so I can flip 1 & 2 the end of the month.
