Mephisto is awesome. Got tons from them if you are ever interested in trading.

[No3odiesShad0w]

That's how I feel about other genetics lolol. But like always monies is the barrier. Plus some genetics only sell 10 packs like what the hell am I going to do with a 10 pack. I wanna try mephisto, square one, LIT and more from Humboldt.

Solid pull there nobody. Haven't tried any ethos photos yet. Maybe time to.

Finally. Weigh Day!!

Loving the results! When I opened the Cannatrol, I just got hit with a wave of grape and cherry. So strong the whole apartment smells of it. Wow.

2x3 tent 2x4
UG 102g. UG 127g

Mandarin 96g. Grape Balls 79g. Total 404g 😱 of some of the BEST flower I've grown to date.

Also fed my clone, she was looking rough, turns out she was hungry. Gave some neem seed and grew a whole cloud 😂. I love watching decomposers do their thing It's just fascinating to me. I could sit there and watch them break down material for the rest of my life and not be bored. But then again I'm the kind of person that could sit and watch paint dry with compounding interest. 😅

Smoke Report coming in a few days and that will conclude this thread! Also Seed to harvest video coming on my YouTube channel coming Friday.

I just figure I let the Growmies on GWE know first. This was where I took off my training wheels after all.

ReVegging fun. Turns out that Uncle Grandpa is absolute fire the terpenes are like I've never had before on this cultivar. And I didn't take a clone I didn't think I was going to need it since well I have multiple seeds. Man this one is just so good.

SMOKE REPORT 💨

Mandarin Zkittlez - I wanted orange.... But there's no orange terpenes on this one. It does smell like blueberry coffee though. Super interesting! I have a bag of New England coffee which I enjoy every so often. Specifically the New England blueberry cobbler. Super cool smell I love opening that bag and just getting a whole face full of delicious blueberry coffee smell. The smoke tastes more like bitter or blood orange. Not bad but Not the orange terpenes that I was looking for. Still a pretty pleasant smoke. The high is pretty good pretty clear-headed. Taste more like it did when I got it from the dispensary.

Uncle Grandpa aka UG - this one is 🔥🔥🔥. OMG. It smells like frankincense gas with a hint Ludens cherry cough drops flavor. SPECTACULAR taste. Well rounded and spicy! I keep sneezing because it tickles my nose with the spicy gas. The high is second to none. This cultivar is my current number 1 favorite. I love the cherry I love the incense like gas. The high is really stoney. More relaxing cultivar. Does wonders for my pain. Let's me relax and not so hard in the munchies department. That's why I'm going through the trouble of reveging It doesn't matter which one veggies first because they're both identical clones. I just need them to grow a few branches so I could take more clones because this one is worth it. I would love to take this and cross it with something else. But what? 🤔. Man I would love to have space for breeding because this is the kind of stuff that I would love to mess with. I would love to keep that gas but I would love to bring out that cherry flavor. It's not the prettiest looking plant either and it's kind of leafy making it a little bit annoying to trim but that's okay. I'm not too concerned about the morphology because they grow massively huge thick buds. Certainly my best grow to date. Every single plant made it every single plant had amazing flower every single plant yielded at least 3 oz. I'm Happy 😊

For 30 odd years all I ever grew was regular seed, outdoors, so just planted double and a bit more. Last outdoor grow though I got 8 out of 8 males which was a first for me. Indoors I took the same approach and it worked fine and reused the coco next grow. Freak show is an odd one and slow to grow so sexying it is going to take longer than your regular stuff most grow.

Since growing with autos and feminised seed though it is more convenient but I've now gotten lazy with seeding for next years grow. No males. My last lot of my seed I grew only 1 popped and it was fem, I don't like switching them, so no pollen collection either.

[No3odiesShad0w]

I think the last Freak Show is also a male. I'm so over regular seeds. Just a waste of money and time. I'm only growing feminized or autoflower seeds. Wasted 3 months trying to sex these pieces of shits and every single one was a male. Waste of electricity waste of soil waste of everything. And I don't get it I keep the humidity super high I keep the temperatures warm. I know lower humidity gives you a higher percentage of males. But I keep the humidity at minimum 80% at least for the first few days. Then I'll slowly knock out back.

On a positive note, look at these cool little Aspergillus Fungi growing on my clone. The humidity was so high they were able to thrive on a dead branch. SO COOL!!! Also super cool, I was cleaning a storage space I let my old roommate use, and I found this awesome canon 75-300mm zoom lens!!! It's not the same mount as my Sony, but the adapter is $25-$100 (manual-autofocus). It's a full frame lens for a 13mp sensor which will fully fit my 20mp APS-C mirrorless sensor. What an awesome score!!
Merry Christmas to me! Lolol It only cost $200 brand new but that's still a $200 savings for me. And 300 mm of focal length is probably plenty for my photography needs. Matter of fact I need the exact opposite I need a macro lens not a telephoto lens lolol but hey having an awesome telephoto lens is cool too. It will serve me well. Even all the way up to the point when I buy a full frame camera. Awesome awesome find. I wish I had this luck with the regular seeds.

Would be cool if I had a macro lens I would have gotten some really awesome pictures of that Aspergillus fungi.

Luckily, I didn't hold my breath and I planted a purple punch. So the line up is gonna be Grape caper, sour orange, my personal cross, birthday cake, and purple punch. Third time that I've tried growing the freak show and third time all males. I think I have like four seeds left so I'm going to try one more time for the next grow. But I have series doubts. I see why nobody grows this cultivar despite it looking cool This is a fucking pain in the ass. And it's not the growing part that's the pain because that's going fine.

Trimmed the 2x4 yesterday!! Both tents are down. Half is dried and cured, the rest will be ready in 8 days.
I think the 2x4 is gonna be the winner. The wet weight is higer than the 2x3 and the terps were so sharp the tenants called and told me to know it off with the smoking already 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣 I had to open the windows to vent it. That UG on the 2x4 side is so terpy that the incense smell almost smells like cat piss it's so sharp on the nose. That's why that UG is my NUMBER 1 favorite cultivar.

Got a total of 198g from the 2x3

Now to get the tents all cleaned up and ready for the next grow!!

I got an instrument building/woodworking channel and i'm working on a History channel as well thought....that's on the back burner. There are plenty good historians on YouTube. History doesn't change, per say, we just update the missing parts when new info comes to light. Gotta do something while unemployed. I should exercise ....but I'm fat for a reason. I prefer to work out my brain muscles.

[No3odiesShad0w]

I know dude. I'm already having issues with germination. It sprouted with the taproot going up and the plant growing down. I'm popping 2 more seeds today because i don't trust that freakshow either. I just have all these Blimburn and b/w label seeds and i didn't want to grow ethos this round since i did them for the last 2 grows. I haven't worked in over a year.....can't afford new seeds atm, so I'm just going through and seeing what I might like to grow.

[Bluey]

All Spanish based seed suppliers can be put into that basket IMHO. Great marketing, but seed not as described, ripped off photos even from here. I've seen supposed feminised seed produce half males at a friend's house. Ripped off!

[Going2fast]

Dudes everywhere. Good luck with blimburn. Complete trash in my opinion.

[No3odiesShad0w]

Welcome to the sausage fest!!! No females to be found 🤣🤣

Acai freak # 1. Male
Acai freak # 2 . Male
Freak Show # 1. Male
Freak Show # 2. Male
FreakShow # 3. (Might be a female? Too early)

That means my line up has changed yet again. At least the cereal is impressed with the current results. Just gotta sort out this male situation. If the last freak show is a male then I'll just end up growing two of my crosses. Since I have 2 clones. I planted a birthday cake by Blimburn just because everything is Ethos in my library loolololl I wanted to grow anything other than ETHOS this run. I really hope one of the freak shows is a female. Would look really cool on camera.

Bluey facts, yo! So beautiful
