- Old school early weed
The “plan”.
Start a dozen plants, put them out in 3 or 4 small plots guerilla style, and hopefully harvest a couple plants with a branch or 2 of fresh seed.
For me guerilla style means minimal work. I don’t dig too big a hole, and only shovel blade deep. I use the native soil with a gallon or so of good compost added per plant. My main concern is to keep up with the slug “medicine”.
The seed. Trying something new this year, buying seed, and chose Dinafem. I got;
5 Dinafem Amnesia XXL auto
5 Dinafem White Widow XXL auto
and some of my “early weed”.
The early weed is what it was simply called when it was given to me some 25+ years ago (before there was a thousand strain names, before there was internet !) It is indica dom. And finishes in 90 days from seed. I love it, unlike just about everything else I never get immune to it. For all I know it may be an auto too, don’t know never tried indoors? More on this later...
Anyway. I got the seed wet late May, and they broke ground on May 28. A week ahead of my normal timing, planning to be cut and dried while still hot, and dry in august.
The weather, we all got complaints, but first part of june here was very wet, and cold enough to burn leaves off the popular saplings ! (first pic.) not sure I’ve seen that before ? As a result many of the seedlings got stunted, about half of them severely.
Keep in mind these are 100% outdoor grown, have had zero benefit of indoor lighting so will be much smaller, and less branchy than many other growers have, so....don’t laugh. Frankly I always felt if I had a plant a foot tall, a foot wide by end of June I was OK.
Burnt off popular leaves.
Seedlings day 1 May 28.
Dinafem AWW XXL at 2 weeks.
Dinafem WW at 1 month, taken yesterday June 28.
They're are a foot high, a foot wide avg. And the one on the right has a couple pistils at the 5th node. Almost disappointed to see so early, by comparison my early weed won’t show till the 7th node, I hope it becomes a bit more than a “stick”, we’ll see.
And my early weed, it is just slightly the “thickest” one. The first with a 7 finger.
There.
