It was 93° here today so I waited til dusk when it cooled off to snip so it's too dark for pics but I took 3-5 fan leaves from each bud on the 4 Strawberry Cheesecake crosses & then anything that was overtaken with WPM or blocking a lower bud.
The N. Lights crosses I got crazy.... I FIMed each & every top node. Even the main colas. The last 2 pure Lemon Skunk are still young & I ain't decided what treatment they're gonna get.

& Pheeeeeeee yewwwww!!!!!!! After stirring em up like that...... if the neighbor thought the skunks were after his chickens before...... he's gonna be outside guarding em all night tonight!!!! Lolol. I TOLD him I had smelled it too & know that smell & that someone in the neighborhood was growin weed but he wasn't convinced.

You buying a house JDU?

 

[JDU]

No......?
Oh lololol..... "Buyin the house a round of drinks- house as in the whole bar lol.

 

[JDU]

Here they are this mornin. It looks like FIMing works like supercropping..... the NL have grown an easy 2in overnight & there's finally some growth on the lower nodes!
Not too bad the oldest 4 huh? Considering I was ready to pull em a month ago. I think I'll git more'n an 1/8 between the 4 lololol....

I found a seed with your name on it on this little Amnesia Haze.

 

[SoOrbudgal]

LOL JDU i swear you will get better with them, if i can you sure can LOL. I'm just topping and LST tying down the branches nothing more.

 

[SoOrbudgal]

He's sounding like he's got enough " amnesia " for the time being LOL.

I'm feelin pretty good about the 2nd & 3rd wave of THIS grow to be honest. The 1st really didn't have a chance no sun for the 1st 2wks.

 

[JDU]

Sweeeet!!! You should breed it to the CJ!!
Or just send it to me would be juuuust fine too haha! Love them Sativas!!

Current pics of my first grow Northern Lights and Amnesia about 7 weeks into the cycle. The Northern Lights seems to be doing well. I'm not sure about the Amnesia but it appears healthy.

 

[FunkyButtLovin]

CJ provided the pollen

 

[JDU]

NICE!!! That's some serious sativa!!
Got any Gorilla Glue left to breed her to? OH!!!! & back to the CJ!! The lemon Skunk would be good too!

 

[FunkyButtLovin]

Here's a Gorilla x CJ seed.


Or did you mean Amnesia Haze to GG?

 

[JDU]

So nice!
Yeah- I'm sayin breed the Haze x CJ to everything 👍

 

[JDU]

Lookin good!

I tried to breed CJ to Amnesia Haze, Blueberry, CJ, GG, LS x SC, LS x NL, NL, NYC, OG and Strawberry Cheesecake but I left home the day the pollen sacks began to open so I just had to leave the pollinators amidst the rest of the flowering recipients. I expected out of control pollination and seeds everywhere but it looks like we got very little pollination even with hundreds of pollen sacks opening in the same tent! Some plants that were literally touching the plants that produced pollen appear to have no seeds. I guess I should have put a fan blowing directly across the pollen sacks into the rest. Amnesia Haze and Blueberry look to have a dozen or two each, the others will likely be single digits if they make any at all. I know we have at least a couple GG and CJs1. I planted a couple of regular Northern Lights x LSD autos from Boreal but they didn't auto and one was a boy who added lady parts to his resume.

 

[JDU]

Oh wow. I guess pollen ain't as aggressive as we thought. I hope I got any photo seeds.

 

[JDU]

RIP Phase 1.
Even in 100° temps there was enough moisture in the leaves & resin in the buds that WPM flourished & overtook the Cheesecake crosses. Bagged & tagged & in the dumpster. 😥
Like SoOrbudgal said- Oregon is too humid to start plants outdoors before mid to late June. I don't think I'm gonna try a greenhouse grow this Winter either- it would be a waste of seeds n dirt.
Well..... live n learn 😑

 

[JohnEmad]

bloody wpm. I have not had that problem yet but all my grows have been indoors.

 

[JDU]

I hope you never see it Amigo. This is my 1st outdoor grow. I do have 3 more just starting to flower & 1 more a couple wks behind. Hopefully I got the spores out of there before these'ns git sticky & hold on to any remaining spores & do the same. I ordered some Lost Coast plant therapy tonight... Shitty shit shit this sucks!!
