Of the female 9lb Hammer, Querkle, and the Mickey Kush showed female early. It grew better than the males: Dr Who and Deep Purple. The The OG started and grew poorly. Looked male. Sour Secret looked male. Querkle, Deep Purple, 9lb Hammer, and a 3D all had to be forced briefly in a 12 hour room to show sex. I am using Fox Farm HF, and even Dr Earth from Home Depot that actually has good ingredients.? Yeah, clearly catering to growers. I recycle soils and keep buying soil and perlite. I've added some worm castings to a tub I use but that's all. And tap water. I don't test sh*t. I water plants as they get droopy, recover the water after letting dried out containers soak up water for 20-30 minutes and let them drain. It's a huge pain in the ass. Works well though. Fool proof. Some plants get nitrogen burn from FFHF. All the dirt brands are now mixed together with perlite added to all brands. They're too thick as sold and take too long to drain and dry out. Then I can ignore it for days after watering.

Blue Dream. I haven't set up my C02 yet. These are just natural indoor.

Bro, The Cookie Family are mostly a bunch of hustlers slash enthusiasts who love money, And know that if they cross tasty classic stuff with difficult crystally stuff and name it after super popular stuff, everyone will have a hard time hating it, and if they modify the genes and eliminate male female seeds, they they can get away with continual overpricing and keep competition fiercer..I don't call that for the people, lol. Tests are flawed imo, too, but if using as a criterion, It only tests at 21-22%
If you want a chance to have that strain pop off 30% you're gonna wanna get it in my handsi'd pop a third genner under DPs vero creations in a soil fully and artfully crafted from natureView attachment 3573305[/QUOT
I grew the cookie strains for that reason. To see what's up. I haven't got it dried yet. These strains practically demand C02 to get dense and I vegged the GSC for at least a month. I buy strains to make crosses anyway and clones to get buds faster. I'm already done with store bought clone growing. They're all picked. My seed plants are budding now. I didn't make seeds with any cookies strains. Finicky and slow. I will smoke it all. I have clones going off my homegrown strains Urkle OG and a Poison 3D OG. They're 5' in 7 gallons of dirt and getting insanely frosty. California has a new law. We aren't limited to plant numbers now, basically. We get 100 square feet. MMJ. It allows room to play and not worry about numbers. I use a few chambers. They're not perfect yet but they're all growing plants in various stages at 12 or 18 hours. I turned lights on in later October and I have buds from Key Lime Pie, Platinum GSC, Sherbet, Blue Dream, THC Bomb, and Alien OG. Blue Dream is dry and Sherbet is almost gone. I have spare clones of GSC and Sherbet in case they were insane. That's just frugality.

Nice pic bra
This was no co2 either. u dont need co2 for frost.
This Is my personal in-house favorite, the Don's own "Colonel's Gravy" with its epic Skunk, Silver and Chernobyl influences..
Insanely debilitating potency, especially for the first half hour. Never seen a strain that could put vets right to sleep with a half a tight cigarette size j, like clock work.
This uber-original, double-dangerous Don Family strain could compete with cookie products no,word of a lie..its terp profile smell-wise is fuckin straight KFC gravy over rotten apples, so unique and rare, plus she activates the third eye harrd another super rare trait, thanks to its Borneal content. i'd look that up.. 4 potential candidates right now, here is one, in a one gallon fab-pot
..be looking very closely for a rare Gravy pheno this round. So far they all reek so I'm stoked

That pheno was special. That terp profile was so unique.

Tbh , Not much PPP
Gonna try different herbs lettuces and tasty things I can actually eat, why not try save money and get organic produce for free over winter when its normally tasteless and taxed
I've never seen such healthy looking romaine in my life, its fkn wild. Growing fast and staying bushy / sheeny / squat, while my friends bolted on him and was pale and lanky. Love it.

Again with a massive success rate!!!
4 different strains of clones have showed sex naturally as they are like 50-60 + days old now for sure and have been on 18/6 for a multiple weeks..
Thats 4/5 strains we grew From seed and decided to clone are female so 80% females from male-female seed and counting. Might be 100% after this last strain shows.. Kinda Hoping this last one is a male, its structure is insanely nodey, its squat and its really stinky to touch. Either way gonna be awesome.
Also have a Romulan above ground, a Kosher, a Purpłe Diesel, a LA Chocolate, a SLCh (a third pheno) and a Meaty Chernobyl too
Lets the games begin

Growing your own produce is awesome. I have a large variety of lettuces, herbs, chilis, etc etc etc.

That's freaking awesome. I have a C02 setup i usually use. I had to move and move storage into a pretty beaten house that needed massive work just to live inside of. I was happy just to setup two closets after missing two years of growing. It was terrible. I'm not kidding. I love growing weed. Anyway, i have a slew of homegrown weed crosses I sprouted in late October flowering as i have room in a bigger spot i made. I grow plants out from seed exclusively. I grew clones to get smoke faster when i started growing again and to try some new strains for growing and smoking and for fun. GSC and the other two are super wimpy with skimpy buds, slow or skimpy growth. I used to always add fertilizer to water in minute amounts, which worked fine tbh, but I skipped it because of your site. A neighbor said the Sherbet and Blue Dream I grew and smoked with him was smoother than weed they buy. Everybody in this story is a MMJ patient. He theorized the C02 used to bud made it more harsh. Idk, some of these skimpy strains cry out for C02. I just won't grow them. I have crosses with seeds from Kiloa that are a breeder's IBL of Chemdawg IV and of The Purps, as in Mendocino. I use clones and make seeds. I use TGA strains of which i have 20 or more. It's out of control seed making. I start all kinds of different seeds. I just crossed four home-made strains with Purple Deathstar pollen. 8 plants. I will next cross a bunch with DR WHO's pollen. No C02, huh? I have the technology and the tank! Should i skip it? I've used it the last ten years.

There are three strains in this group of eight. That purple-stem plant is clone-only SFVOG X Chemdawg IV. Some seeds grow like Chemdawg IV with jagged leaves. Other could be a five-blade, small-leaf, Kush plant. All these plants lowest branches got TGA strain Purple Deathstar pollen dusted on them. Separate plants will get pollen from Dr Who. 9lb Hammer X Dr Who. Querkle X Dr Who. I have a Deep Purple male so short, slow, thick, and with odd and thick leaves I will also be using.

It seems growth is very fast under the white light of the LEDs...would you agree? And can you notice the extra red from those 3500k veros?

That's dope. Now that I have space that's the goal.
What you find works well with marijuana ?
And what needs to be off on its own so its not interfering?
Here's a node-staggering 2nd gen beauty that hopes to find some companion crops soon..
Keeping the beer cups on soil has allowed huge healthy roots to grow out, avoiding air pruning and oxidation rust

Agreed Dp..
The plants sexed themselves without 14/10 and we are at 80% females from (Male/female) seed this round so far.. With temp and humidity fluxes that's very impressive. That tells me one thing: they like the paint job very much..lol
But yea,
Big difference in red with just a 500k drop, seems happy though..got seedlings under it and they're really starting to boom. Second sets of leaves are getting really fat and they're staying nice and low, around 3-4" tall.
I have to say, you did it again. How is your mini light coming though? I could really use that extra light, especially in the mornings..
