Don't beat yourself up bro. That's a fine harvest considering you got the beans from some random nobody on the net lol! No really. Hey I learned a lot from you being nice enough to grow them out. Them being nute sensitive on top of several other things. Thank you. I love her potency but she's still got a few kinks. Now I wish you had of done a 4 x4 grow like you suggested at the beginning just to see if it was soil related. They still look nice and sticky. Would like to here a potency comparison between scarlet and not scarlet buds by one of your buddies.

Mo laughing here although, ok, I laughed. But underneath that outer funny looking weirdness you have a lovely fully packed bud goodness and that's all that matters

Sorry that I didn't get back to y'all the other night. I've been fighting this nasty head cold all week and just absolutely felt like shit. One of those where you're head feels like a balloon and it seems you are talking out of your nose, lol. Pretty much nothing but work, sleep, and harvest the last few days.
Well here goes...nobody laugh! 🤣
Scarlet Grape # 5, harvested at day 67.
Probably the best of the worst.
I tried for some trich shots again, but they suck.

Well i totally understand i have shown less than stellar grows, I think it's good that we show new growers that even us long time growers have " Burps " in our grows. Lord knows what these bags of soil got in them we trust the name from years of use then it changes. Anyway, it's over LOL time to move on and get them toms and garden going. My hands are getting rough again and i love it stained with dirt. I'm making a bean pole tipee but i've not choosen my toms yet which strain something medium an on the sweet side.

Thanks for the kind words SoOrbudgal and Going2fast. Yeah, I can only recall one time that I gave up on a grow. The thrip in invasion of '21! I was several weeks into flower and absolutely could not mitigate with everything else going on in life at that time. A bunch of random genetics and a special bag seed from a friend of a friend. Likely Jungle Boys stuff. The growth was unreal. Like nothing I'd seen b4. Aswell as a perfect manifold to boot! It was sad.
Anyways, yeah I'm sure someone can give me a report. I'm loving the smells, even though my sniffer doesn't work quite right sometimes, lol. I think the coolest thing about these ladies is the purple trichomes. Never seen that before! Just wish I could steady my hands long enough to get a good pic through the loop. Purple counts amber, right? Hehe
Yeah, I've read alot of mixed reports about FFOF also. And hell no I wouldn't pay 34 bucks a bag for it! Shit, I won't pay full price for any bagged soil, lol. I buy at the end of the season when the garden and farm stores are desperate to unload it. I think I played 12ea for these six bags last year. And I bought the remaining 42 bags of MG Organics at Home Depot for two dollars each like three winters ago, lol. Can't beat that!
My previous guest was correct, five out of eight went full Scarlet in the flowers(1, 2, 4, 5, & 6). But i think they're all be having the pretty reds and pinks in their fade/death. I was also researching the parent strains from Gas Reaper and Mephistso. One said it was like a 65-75 day'r and the other like 75-85. Can't remember which. I know this is speculatory(<--not sure if this is a word), but it oughta get me close. I'd rather take em down than have em die!
I also did a little test the other day. I put off watering for an extra couple days and obviously they didn't like it. I was just trying to prolong the inevitable, lol. So I watered, but with less than half their normal intake, in hope's that I could try and feed them through just the surface roots. Nope, failed again! Lol, after seeing them the next day(yesterday), they'll all be coming down asap.
So there's more pics coming tonight.
But for now, here's a picture of the 'matter's I got raging in my little grow room atm.
Transplants all went well. Still gotta up-pot several. These damn seeds really took off. Hehe, I think I got like 40 of these things!
I'm sorry to be kind of a stranger. Must admit, there is a small amount of shame, lol. See a soon! 🙂👍Last edited by Blowdout2269; 04-13-2023, 06:25 PM.

Brostaff those are some pretty buds and 70 days isn't going to hurt the potency much. Third pic is gorgeous. Yeah all the plants seem to be suffering the same. Saw the fox farms soil at a local nursery. Yeah I ain't paying 34 bucks for a bag of dirt. Seems to get mixed reviews. I'm not sure if they weren't just hungry or too much nutes. Your pH is good. More work to be done on this strain. I think your friends will still enjoy the results. Keep the pics coming please.
how many went scarlet?

Give yourself a pat on the back for sticking with this grow. I think you'll be surprised with them regardless of how they look. I'm smoking mine now, i know you don't partake but if someone you know does let them give you a report of effect. I'm loving mine as small and as much trouble i had like yours i'm liking the effects and that's all i'm caring about LOL. I can't wait to set a few free outdoor this summer. Wish i'd grown 6 in my tent.
