2. The yield isn't what they might want. Most want something that is quick and fast and yield a monster. Sativa's do yield and i don't care if someone says they don't. You just have to do them outdoors where they are suppose to be grown. You will yield monster tree's out door's and pull a easy 2-3 lbs off a good sativa. Look at Texas Kid. His Bangkok Betty yielded him in that range easy. Plus, he didn't fully finish her. Most grower's don't want to work with yield and length of flower time. They want it yesterday and they want allot of it and it better be killer smoke.


Hey bg, glad to see your doing better, i couldnt agree more with this statement..i grow mostly sativas outdoors in the tropics and i have seen my self sativas
out-do indicas and hybrids in every way...yield,high,bag appeal, ect..ive ran a couple of sativas inside and outside and the difference is amazing with the outdoor being superior everytime...the high,taste,duration of high
,yeild is always better with a sativa when it is grown outside preferably in a similar climate in which it originated..sativas get alot denser outdoors than they do indoors....getting back on topic, i got a OE dominant pheno of casey jones that looks very similar to the pics posted, the high of her is so racy and cerebral its hard for me to believe that she finished in 63 days and not 100, especially since she looks like a wild sativa...great job on this line BG i look forward trying some of these f3's outside when you release them...take care

Thanks for the kind words. I agree with you totally on the sativa's. I'll have a greenhouse this spring. If everything goes right. Then I'll post some nice outdoors pictures. Your right and most grower's want fast strains.

Glad you got a nice pheno from the Casey Jones. Head from Head seeds did a awesome job with that cross. Glad you got a speed demon. 63 days isn't bad at all.

As for the OE F3's. She's going in the direction I want and i'm sure you'll do well with them. I've got some friends growing a bunch in Hawaii right now. Hopefully I can get some pictures from them. The OE should yield very nicely over there.

Well, hate to head out. Thanks for stopping by and for the support. I might be sending in some of the F2's. The germ rate is still very good. I got 100% about 2-3 weeks ago. The F3's are in the process.
Take care,
BG

Bad News!

Well, today I was cutting some lower branches from my mother plant, "OE#2". I was getting low on some smoke and the lower branches weren't getting enough light. Well! I notices pollen had released from a female. So, you all know what that means. Damn Hermi"

I did notice that a few small spots on the main cola had some seeds forming, but I figured I missed some pollen when I cleaned up from the Chocolate Thai pollen. Well, I closer inspection and I noticed a few nanner's. I'm really bummed out, because this girls smells so good flowering out and taste so sweet in the end results. Has a nice sugar wet look to her also.

Well, I'm one to do things right. All the OE#2's will be destroyed. So, this means that I will be forced to look for a female from the 20 OE's I have going now. I've got 20 new OE's from the F2 seeds going and was looking for a male. Guess, I will be forced to look for a female as well. If I can not find a good female or male. I will germ more seeds and look farther. I'm really bummed I've got to let this girl go, but I know if I don't. It will cause problems down the line.

Sorry, for the bad news. I'll keep everyone in the loop.
Take care,
BG

Good luck BG!

Thanks guys,

means allot to me. Just bummed that she didn't work out, but like others have posted. I want this girl to be right. I think once I get a greenhouse. Things will be allot easier for me. Cut my bills down allot and run these girls under the sun. I've got plenty of stock if I've got to do more selecting, so I'm good there. I will get this one right and I'm sure all will be happy with her.

Thanks for the support and stopping by. Take care everyone and have a wonderful weekend.
Later,
BG
