This is on a mini filter, not a coffee one. I still have flowers popping outside, more than I had bulbs, but I checked the prices on safron . It's anywhere between $10 and $30 per gram on amazon. you'd need a ffield of thtese and a herd of slave labor with tweezers to do production. But it's no work at all so for home consumption its fine. This is probably $5 worth LOL

I topped all the regs. I left 6-8 limbs on each but I stopped the top growth/apical dominance. As they grow out I'll get them to 4-6 limbs depending on how they look.

The plan for the ten regs is to let them veg for a bit. They have room in those 5qt pots to go for a while so sexing them as is after veggine a bit should be no problem. The larger veg tent might be a flipping tent for sorting regs when needed.

I took the 3x3 apart, cleaned fans and exhaust and am getting a new AC Infinity light for it. It will be a mom/clone tent for the most part. It can hold smaller stuff in veg if I need to flip the other tent.

The three 1968 got 5qt, but the Chem91 and FB68 clones are still in 1g. They need bumped up shortly and the five should fill the mom tent nice.

The main thing on the regs is that I'd like to keep them in 5g for flower unless it's a sausage fest and I only have a few girls. Flipping 10 and expecting 5 girls means I need half a tent harvested for there to be room. The veg tents will work for sexing, but the room is not darkened like the flower room. I can keep it dark for a week or so but that room is like a workshop with the cement mixer and stuff. I can't not be in there for 8-10 weeks.

I got beans wet! None of mine yet.

I dropped five Greenway fems, only the Sour Puss I grew before and I want another.

The Dante's Inferno S1 is from the contest afterparty... That is so I have an idea what it is before I dive into the mess of crosses he sent. I didn't see the Vietnamese Silver Leaf without digging but two older regs jumped out at me to be run. The Smunkwater x Pandemic from Family Tree seeds was pretty nasty on the first plant. But I got 2-3 duds on a more recent try. The same with the Lemon Hashplant cross. I have a few more from Sungrownmids that he hit with the 88g13hp he got from Bohdi. I there's a low pop-rate I'll dig around and find the VSL that I intended to drop initially.

If any fems don't pop I'll re-drop them.
If the regs don't do well I'll give some of mine a shot.

Pics this evening, done messing with stuff for now. The 6 Uzbek have decent limbs and may be stretchers so they are in the dark and will get moved to the flower room tonight. The PTK and 3 Paki have no limbs. They just got topped and have no choice now. I think net may be just stripping all the fan leaves and making them grow more limb to get more leaf. They are just for smoke, and regs so I won't be fucking with them for long.

I chopped 3 of the Flashback yesterday, one this morning. The clones and the tall one went first. Clones are beautiful with an even orange all over. The seed plant had this old-school look that will show in the cure. real knobby flat-top buds. The tops were all powdered sugar but they weren't finishing. It has the single- or double-calyx foxtails all over. Lots of new sparkly trichs but it evens out and smells amazing. The one with the tall spears was less fox-tail-y but it was popping new-white all over. I need the room and all have the terps.

The Chem91 clone needs a new pot and will go into a flowering size pot to veg for a bit. I'll do some selective pruning to get it ready to flower so I may take clones. The FB68 mom needs a new pot and could get cloned or I could just let it get bigger. It's a beautiful tree, and with a little more veg it's a big dome-full of clones.

From the bottom, veg is now a 3x3. This will stay the mom tent when I need to move stuff around. the three 1968 in the back are showing some different expressions. Middle three are the Paki, PTK front middle. The Chem91 and FB68 are the 1g's that need bigger pots. Both have clonable stuff if I decide to just start that process and flip the FB68, but the 91 won't be kept. It need a new pot and to get shaped. to keep the best limbs before flip. So far all the FB68 seeds seem to be top notch in terps so the smoke should be similar, but the clone I kept is the best looking, shorter, dark lime green, and finishes quicker and more evenly. I may end up keeping it long term, so since I hate cloning a progressive up-pot seems best. Eventually this is just three 1968 and the FB68. And room for clones thereof

The Paki got the closet. I would like to get three girls then they can switch with the Pink Floyd in the tent.

The shorty Purple Floyd got moved to the side for less direct light. Pink Floyd in the middle.

And the Chem91 and Blue Jack City ended up here

Everything is looking fabulous vato. Super healthy.
I suck at taking compliments when it's not something I really did. My plants look great but the only way I can really fuck them up is to let them get rootbound. My soil is good - that's the ticket. I think it's going on 5 years building the same batch of soil. finding the re-amendment schedule using the craft blend that worked with my style helped since i don't do soil testing. The only "food" thing I give them is some Fish Hydro in veg. Everything else is ferments and sprout teas and such during the grow.

I think the downfall of some indoor bed-grows is that the soil gets compacted over time. Half the cover crop growth and the reason for leaving rootballs is to try and prevent that. I dump pots. I grind up dried root balls and put them through the worm bin. I add rice hulls of it feels a little too heavy, or some fresh peat. Bio char occasionally. i use bat guano and fish bone meal with the craft blend for flavor. I add bokashi right after a grow on top of the pots and work it into the rice hulls. It sets for a few days moist and covered with a plant saucer for a week or so until I dump and sift.

But there's no method. Just whatever I think it might need now. So that I think is compliment worthy, but the weed growing in the pots has nothing to do with me until I pop my own seeds.
