All I want are some "Fucking Incredible" seeds...

Scrog was Ok. No seeds this round. Got 2.5 ounces or so and a few grams of hash off the 2 plants, so not great at all. I was hoping for a lot more. I have done pure LST, and now Scrog. Time for a little SoG. I have an abundance of seeds from the FI seed run and so I planted 22 of them (planted 8 already (after the scrog) and 8/8 sprouted and were female. Perfect seeds). A 16-20 plant lollipopped SOG from seed with no more than 2 or 3 weeks veg is up next. No popcorn nugs to deal with this time. And this will likely be the last time I flower under flouro's. I really need a 400 watt HPS to get what I want. It is hard for newbies to understand, but the intensity of the light is of utmost importance if you want any kind of worth while yield. Was good to learn on the tubes though...
Anyways, not logging this grow. Maybe some pics well into flower if it turns out half descent.
Best Wishes to all.

Light, but don't forget ventilation either... ;)

I grew 8 out first. All germinated in jiffy pucks and grew healthy and female. No signs of pollen sacs or nanners anywhere. Perfect. Good smoke too.
Next, I planted 22. Same pucks. 19 sprouted, 16 grew healthy, 3 were disposed of. 14 of them went to flower, 2 (the best of the best) went to the mother/clone box.
So the SOG is 3 weeks into flower. I found 1 plant that had 1 sac and 4 small nanners. I removed them and am checking every day for more. Minor hermy, no problem.
The other 13 are perfect thus far. Some topped resulting from faster growth, some not topped. We'll see what I like best. If I get 1 sac and 4 nanners for every 24 seeds I made, I'll be fine with that. I'll be watching though.
I have taken 4 cuttings off of each mother. mom1 is doing the best, and her cuttings are doing VERY well. mom2 is doing OK, but her clones are well behind mom1's.
I will be using 2 of mom1's clones with CS to make a fresh batch of seeds with mom1 and mom2. The other 6 clones will go to flower.
I will keep mom2 seeds for rainy days and use mom1's seeds next batch.
This is all so much fun. I will put some pics in a week or so when the clones are in flower with the other 14. I don't yet know how I will fit them all in there.
With the mothers, I took the cuttings from nodes 3 and 4. Nodes 1 and 2 were removed earlier. mom2 I removed the big light blocking fan leaves from nodes 5 and 6, leaving 3 and 4's on (there not blocking anything). I also topped mom2 above the 7th node, leaving its fan leaves on until the shoots are a little more developed. But they will be removed in a week or so. My goal is to have 10 untopped tops around the same height for flowering. I think it will work perfectly, but I left mom1 alone just incase. Her seeds are the prize this round.
Best Wishes.

Second batch of seeds is almost ready. Two or three more weeks until those seeds are finished. The longer the better though,,,. I would rather wait three or four more weeks if it means a higher percentage of good seeds. But that is not the only reason I would rather go three or four more...
For over a year now I have been growing with florescent tubes and CFL's. Veg and flower. I have done three grows now, and the best was still the first I ever did. Although it was from good clones and not from my own seed. The last two grows I have hit a wall at about 2 ounces. 2 plants scrogged or 12 plants lollipopped and SOG'd, it didn't matter. Same yield.
So the time has come for an upgrade...
I have 25 seeds germinating and vegging in my box right now under the florescent tubes. The best six or so of which will be introduced to my first ever 400 watt HPS. The rest will veg until it is their turn. Which means I should have my best harvests ever during the next two runs. The second of which should be the best as a result of the extra eight weeks veg and topping that will be necessary.
But before they are ready, I was thinking I would throw the two pollinated plants under the new light to get anything extra I can from them, and just to see the effect. But I am excited ;) Finally moving up to the next step.
Just thought I would stop in and say hi to anyone who might be reading.
See you all again in a few weeks with some pics ;)
Best wishes.
