Once they've opened it the games up. You could leave a bribe in the parcel and hope they take it an reseal it and send it on lol
I used to leave a tenner sticking out of the ashtray of my car when it went for mot lol I don't know wether it worked. It might've have passed anyway and the cunt just nicked the tenner lol it was a "friendly" garage though.

over 10oz dried but very small and quite airy buds, it wasn't as good as i was expecting but does have a very potent stone to it. tastes and smells like cookie dough with a slightly piney og note to it.
will run again and see if i can do better. still got a couple of fireballs to chop but the tall one was probably the frostiest.

this jakes dream smells lovely, looks pretty too, gone a nice dark purple colour since it's been getting flushed. i just had to take a sample of her.


and finally got the cheese on 12/12. this is about the perfect size to flower i reckon, they should have no problem at all filling that space without having to compete for light too much.

Ya my first pheno was decent, nothing special or awe inspiring. was a nice sativa racey high. PM monster though. Pheno 2 seems more hybrid, slightly less vigorous, very uniform growth.

So, the pivotal question...which strain is your current favorite?
still early days mate, i have only tried the fireballs and i wasn't impressed if i'm honest but that is down to the way i grew her, with a little more chunk in the buds i think it would be worth keeping around.

jakes dream is in the lead so far and has been for the whole grow but still not smoked any!, i'll be chopping this weekend and that sample i took should be dry then so i'll have something to smoke on whilst i trim.

i'm still undecided. it's a real pleasure to grow it's just down to the high, last time it was weak but not tried this lot yet. i'll let you know the weekend when i go and pick it up.

you and me both! going to go and chop the rest of the fireballs tonight and i'll have a smoke of some jd whilst im doing it, should be fun.

been smoking nothing but fb#1 the last two weeks and i must have only smoked a half oz to myself which is about a quarter i would normally smoke, can only manage 2-3 joints a night maximum it is highly potent knockout material god knows what this 10 week stuff is going to be like but will defo have chunkier buds thats for sure

I have some Jake's Dream going, looking forward to see what I get.

:peace:
just make sure you do a better job of supporting them than i did, they stretch a fair bit but not in a bad way, they have pretty tight nodes but grow at least double their original size.

Thanks, I have tomato cages and bamboo stakes but I'll watch the size when I flip them.

i like the bamboo method personally, it's the most work but does the best job.

you have to find the balance between waiting til they have stopped stretching but not to the point were they start to lean and are covered in sticky resin.

on this current cheese run i have added bamboo before they even flower in the hopes that this will be enough support until around week 3, if i tie them up too soon they will simply lift the cane from the pot and/or grow in a strange twisted way. just before the resin comes spilling out and they are flopping all over the place i will tie every single branch up in the hopes they can get nice and swollen and have even growth on all sides.

I have some C99's that got so fat they just flop around, I have never had buds like this,
the tops of one are like small loaves of bread.
Not complaining but they are hard to manage all floppy and shit.

happens all the time, i think coco is especially bad for it as they grow so fast they just can't support all that weight, personally i hate when it happens as the quality seems to take a real bashing once they begin to flop.

this current run is a complete mess but at least i can get an idea on flavours and potency this is enough info to decide whether or not a strain is worth running again.

i recently started with the silica it defo helps matters thats for sure. i've seen a few growers manage to do entire cycles without any plant supports, how they manage it is beyond me. like i said once they have resin on they just love to fall over the bastards!

That's why I'm running 5 BB strains this run. I don't need any with my Indicas seems just
the Sativas.

If ur not using silica I'd suggest giving em some during veg n early flowering to ticking em up....complaining about ur shit stacking 2 much loool
I use silica all the time as well as calmag+ but these buds are about 4-5 oz's wet each.
But a pix is worth 1000 words.
