How long you been growing these beauties?
Yo Mammath, I've been growing the JF for 18 months here in the Pac NW. The strain came through a friend in Colorado who brought 200+ seeds back from the 2004 Cannabis Cup.
Before that I'd been very successful with an Illinois-originated Northern Lights/Hash Plant X Haze cross that very much resembled the Willy's Wonder in body/bud structure. Silver Haze was grown mostly for personal smoke until being crossed with an original NL5xHaze(Cough#1) which gave it the weight it needed to be commercially viable. I kept the seeds from that cross stored and labeled until a year ago when I started back up again.
I grew the NL5xHaze (Cough#1) for years in Sunshine Mix 4 back in Colorado, along with Super Skunk, Skunk#1, Skunk X Haze, Strawberry Cough, Orange Crush, Vomit Comet, Bubble Berry, White Rhino, Silver Blueberry, Cali Myst, and a few more miscellaneous breeds back in the days of innocence.
Then came a six-month stint with Black Domina in aero-arms.
Have too many seeds from random crosses to weed through at this point in the game. Playing amateur geneticist is fun, but I need proven rockers when being serious.
why aren't you sogging 20 plants per 1000w, if i may ask?

Hey DaGambler, mostly laziness at this point. That soil room has been neglected for three months straight it seems. Eventually a drip system in there would be nice with more numerous but smaller plants to tend. The original setup was two 1000w and two 600w in that 120"x120" space with 20~ plants rotating every two weeks, but when I switched to the SoG as my main grow I just took the two 600w outta there and bought four more, effectively bottle-necking soil flip rate when it was already forming a line out the door, as it were. I also put every last (excepting clone mothers) Jack Flash plant I had into the SoG to bump numbers up. I've been over-vegging plants in soil since late January and not paying half as much attention to that side of the operation, content to just let those finish when they want to. I'll shore up the works at the beginning of next month. Preparations have already begun. Honestly I've thought about getting three more trays for the space available and a couple of light movers to match, but with only one more major round scheduled before August I'll probably hold off on any improvements/decisions until then.
