New Harvest Pics - Miscellaneous Breeders

Here's another TGA tester strain I harvested recently - Tazmanian Skunk (Island Sweet Skunk x Vortex). These were the most vigorous plants in my garden throughout veg.

A couple days before flip the two ladies were looking healthy and green. In this pic, I had just transplanted into #5 pots, but ran out of soil. :oops:
2018-01-14 TAZ 51V.jpg

About 3-4 weeks in, I realized they were gonna be monsters and topped off the pots with freshly ROLS. They got only tapwater their whole lives.
2018-02-14 TAZ 25F.jpg

At day 62F, I took down the #3 pheno. Should have taken her at day 56.
2018-03-23 TAZ3 62F w.jpg

She had some chunky, blocky nugs.
2018-03-23 TAZ3 62F tops f.jpg

Hung to dry for 14 days and, now in jars, she gave me ~140g of grade A bud. Smells really fucking sour like apple cider vinegar and citrus. Tastes good! Like the tangy part of a raspberry, mixed with a little chem. It's early, so we'll see how it cures out. Getting a little homemade popcorn in the background too. A nice chill sativa. Really "there" effects that have none of the rush and very little strung out effects.

Her sister #1 went 77 days. Again, I prolly should have taken her at 70.
2018-04-07 TAZ1 77F w.jpg

Also hung dry for about two weeks, this tall drink of cocksucker gave me near 5 zips, with lots of fluffy larf that I didn't weigh. The smell when trimming is grape big league chew bubblegum in the pouch with a little sour citrus.
TAZ1 colas.jpg

Ground up, she smells like sour lilacs. A sweet & sour flower. But man that vape flavor. Oh damn it's good. It's tastes like lilacs smell. Hints of berry and cheese in the end of the 2nd hit. Maybe a hint of citrus after the 3rd or 4th hit. Very distinct. Flavor lingers in the mouth sorta like after a sweet lemon hard candy.
TAZ1 p1.jpg

The effects are both trippy and weird whole body. It's how I imagine it might feel to have Parkinson's or something like that. Muscles spasming uncontrollably at first. That's prolly bad of me to say but I can't think of a better description. Almost like it's a struggle to make my muscles work. There's also a visual component. Seeing some tracers, and shit out of the corner of my eye. It calms down to a real focused high, if you put it to work, without being tense. Lasts about an hour to an hour and a half.

My favorite part was...."this tall drink of cocksucker..." Gotta love autocorrect...

She looks gorgeous though and you made her sounds delicious. Love me some lilac. Good work buddy :bigjoint:

Looks like fire :)

Going to have to do some horse trading in a few weeks
I got a couple CnC going and they are alright but lack descent node spacing and one has almost no side growth at about 3 weeks old, I'm certain the bud will be nice but damn. I'll have to wait till they hit flower to even have side growth big enough to clone.

But here is a plant that has great node spacing and a grape soda smell. My keeper/ 2nd runner clone of grapes 13. The seed run this bud is from suffered and was chopped a little early so this new clone run should be much tastier.

The smell is there but the flavor is only slightly grapeish, I think the new healthy run will will improve this.

Shes in a 16oz solo cup under a 65w Quantum board.

Gifted these seeds a while ago but no clue on the breeder, GG#4 x Nepoji (Nepali OG x Goji F3). These are also in 16oz cups under the 65w Quantum board

I had a killer ripped bubba a few years ago that I ran a few times. She destroyed the SSDDs I ran at the same time, and finished 2 weeks sooner with good yield. I also took a long spin with Goji, and built up a stash of many jars. Loved that smoke, but frankly, I got bored with it with a few jars remaining. A mutant Chernobyl was the limest and frostiest freak I've ever seen. Friends still bring it up 5 years later.

There have been a lot of plants I'd have loved to have had a few more helpings of. The recent Brisco County Sour Orange Cream was one. :weed: I smoked both plants in record time and only have 3 beans left. More Cowbell is another. Cookies and Creme. 3D. But even while I'm enjoying the harvests, I'm looking at the stash box of beans and planning the next competitors list. I've got a return appearance from ripped bubba in the current seedling group, but otherwise 10 first timers. It's certainly a less reliable approach than keepers and clones, but for me, the surprise and intrigue is half the enjoyment of the grow.
You still in love with that Ripped Bubba!
You know that must have been a wet dream!!!:mrgreen::hump::wall:

upload_2018-4-27_10-1-41.jpeg I finished one a few weeks ago w/ the aforementioned seedling group. She was not happy with the usual grow regimen, and had pretty much burned and crunchy sugar leaves nearly back into the bud. A runt as well; I was convinced it was hardly worth processing, and didn't photograph it. Set it aside while the other plants came down. Picked it up a few days later, trimmed a bud and rolled it up for a 'what the heck' midday smoke. Amazingly found it to be a delicious deep cherry smoke, smooth and very good potency. Only got a jar, but....

I harvested these recently and wanted to share. Ocean Grown Seeds Skunkbeard F2 (animal cookies x alien rift #6) testers.

I had 6 "females" but four hermed right out of the gates. Apparently this was an issue with the F1 as well, which is why that release was so limited. I'm guessing the same will be the case with the F2, as I wasn't the only tester to have issues. Oh well - this is why we test.

Anyway, about those two that didn't herm at the beginning. Here they are 7 days before being flipped to flower, right after transplant.

2018-01-14 SB6 51V.jpg 2018-01-14 SB7 51V.jpg

Grown under Cree 3590 COB LED lights their whole lives. Organic recycled soil, topdress of neem, ewc, and kelp at flip. Besides that, water only throughout their lives. Same as everything here the last couple rounds. Here they are at harvest.

2018-03-23 SKB 62F.jpg

SKB6 was the smaller of the two. She didn't stretch much. I found opened nanners on her lower larf. Sucks, but she was kinda pretty. Smelled like honey when harvesting.
2018-03-23 SB6 62F w.jpg

SKB7 did stretch, and really looked pretty aside from not fattening up. She had a real nice lemon candy floral smell at harvest.
2018-03-23 SB7 62F w.jpg

Surprisingly close in total weight. They hung to dry for 12 days in cool temps and high humidity, and yielded 52g for #6, 58g for #7.
2018 SKB branches trimmed.jpg

The smaller pheno had buds that are not as stinky or frosty.
SKB6 l.jpg

The larger pheno has frostier buds that are pretty skinny. Both phenos are dense and very tightly attached to the main stem.
SKB7 l2.jpg

The smaller #6 smells like a sack of potatoes in the jar, with maybe a little milk after a month's cure. Ground up, there's just an overwhelming potato smell. The first taste is very strong, like if you powdered the smell and then breathed in the powder, plus a little lemon/lime. 2nd vape hit is harsh and gross - burning milk powder. 3rd vape hit tastes like bad breath smells, maybe worse. Room smells like somebody's been smoking meth. It makes my eyes feel heavy, and not much else. It's not bad, just not very strong, and the smoke is very harsh.
SKB6 p.jpg

The larger #7 pheno smells of sweet onion and rubber funk, with a hint of citrus sour. Ground up, the citrus and onion combine to smell tart, but the rubber still dominates. First vape hit tastes of very strong burning rubber, with onion in the back of the mouth and throat. 2nd hit was more onion with a hint of tropical flowers, and 3rd hit was almost all burning rubber. Onion flavor expands to coat the mouth after vaping, and sticks in the back of the throat just like you ate a sandwich with too many onions. This might sound bad, but it's actually kinda tasty!
SKB7 p1.jpg

The effects of #7 are a little rush about 10min after vaping, but it then settles down into a relaxing stone. Surprisingly, it's also visual and heady. Doesn't paint the world with rosy colored glasses, but is somewhat potent.

I'm gonna guess this is the famed lung bleeder terps that Vader has talked about finding in the Rift and its progeny. It makes your throat & lungs feel raw, like you ate something spicy and it went down the wrong tube. Or like if you're cooking with really spicy peppers and breathe in the smell when they just start to scorch and vaporize. It's an absolutely terrible feeling, and really ruins what would otherwise be pretty decent smoke.

Overall, not keepers. Although Shrimp indicated he's going down the line to try to get rid of the herm trait, I'd personally go back to the drawing board, or scrap this one all together. They can't all be winners.
