Cartmans Breeding Just 4 Fun

[Cartman]

Hey all you fellow Auto enthusiasts... First of all I do NOT consider myself a true hard core breeder because as we all know real true breeding takes many plants and years of hard work. That said, I do like to create my own seeds as I despise making seed banks more $.. yes they serve a purpose, but come on, $120 for 10 seeds is freakin ridiculous.. eh? or maybe I'm just cheap, which really I am living off a small SSDI check..

I got my feet wet with Auto's just over a year ago and got hooked.. I love the fast sexing and since I usually only veg'd photoperiod plants 2wks, well Auto's just made more sense.. plus I grow in a small closet 2ft x 3ft by 6ft height with about 5ft grow area in height. I can fit 6 ladies in 3gal pots and lately I experimented with felt pots and am hooked..

My very first attempt was the following:
Sniper: AK47 x Sour60 grown out to f2 then pollinated with Godzilla Grape #5 x Maxine/Superfreak. when I started with the Sour60 cross I chose females that showed the sweet BGum flavor/aroma etc and since it was derived from BOG's Sour Bubble, potency was pretty high to.. after some good results in test grows and taking Sniper to F2 I started to love breeding and making my own seeds..

What's new.. boy oh boy just wait. I now have a partner who I do this together with that I've known for over 10yrs now and fully trust.. we invest in seeds together and share everything.. mostly he does the photoperiod side and I'm the auto guru.. so to speak.

Current pollinations: These females are just under 4wks, so I'll have to run them to a full 70+ days for the seeds to develop properly as they need a full 6wks.

Mi5 by Short Stuff Seeds hand pollinated by Dr Feelgood of same seed bank. I hit both females because there is such a big difference in them one being massively huge..

Mi5 #1

And Mi5 #2 is just over 3ft tall, both are in 3gal pots

Dr Feelgood saved pollen was also used to hit
White Widow by Soul Breeders who is in one of my first grows with felt pots.. switching to them soon.

Next up I used Blueberry Auto to pollinate the following..

Kushryder x Godzilla Grape #5 plant #1 of 4.. I felt the other 3 were to far along in flowering and were going to finish pretty quickly, so I hit the smaller one in the 2gal pot to do at least the one cross..

And finally I hit my Northern Lights x Big Bud with the Blueberry Auto pollen.

I really enjoy what I do and having a trusted partner to bounce ideas off of is always good..

Next grow I'll be working with Rhino Ryder and not sure right now just what it will be hit with, I need to do more research to see what exactly is in it and see which of my pollens or other seeds to drop with it hoping for a male.. if not I always have about 6 Auto pollens to fall back on..

All comments are welcome.. names for new crosses too.. hehe

Here's a few peeks at projects I've already started and have taken to F2.. it really helps getting feedback from friends who have them growing in their environment so they are getting a good test of growing in diff variables..

Day #65 of my Sniper F2.. the cool part about this was the seed fell on it's own and germinated giving me a sprout while the F1 finished flowering.. I chopped it down and lightly separated the seedling dropping it into this 2gal pot to grow out.. she looks pretty good..

Hi Cartman
Good luck with your project.
happy breeding

Thanks so much tobe.. I had to do something with this run to save these genetics and for once in all my grows I didn't get a single freaking male to do so.. had to hit up my partner who does our photoperiod seeds for
his AF pollens he collected last outdoor season..

The larger "Mi5" keeps getting bigger and bigger and has pretty much maxed out the height she can without burning her on the light which is raised almost all the way to the top.. LOL. I really didn't want to lose this particular pheno as I have a few friends looking for Sativa dom Auto's and pretty sure she is a Sativa leaning AK47 F5 by STITCH.. here she is at just under 4ft and her sister who you can really see a big difference in phenotypes huh?
