Thank you sir and me too. It should be an interesting journey and i am sure that there will be decent results from here. To see that many seeds open from a genetic line should be something to see especially with the diversity of the blood lines that are there.

Glad to have you along and thank you again for the karma. Here's hoping that we can get autos a better understanding as well as acknowledgement

Update...

I know that they are vague, but ive been a little busy. Here we are on the march 31st. Got a little stretch in the natural light side of the house. Had to cut off some of the secondary lighting due to the flower room on the other side of the green house.

Males have been ID'ed and removed and we are moving along at this point

Three different lines, 2 are separate pheno selections but all stretched the same. Tells me more that its lighting more than anything. Removing the plastic this week after harvest of the secondary room.

Alf#5, and we have named this selection "Anvil"

WOW I admire you Sir this is a massive undertaking and I don't think I would have the ball's to tackle a project this large . Of course if I was 30 years younger it might not be quit as daunting . All the best F.D.

Hi @FullDuplex
Congrats my friend. That's great news. I wish you all the best. That's the dream of the most of us growers and breeders. I also plan to make my hobby legal but in my country it's not easy. After manage all around the farm I will work to do the step and produce industrial hemp on the farm with the focus on CBD rich strains.

I am happy for you that you got the chance to do this step.

I will send you a pm in the next days.

Enjoy your work and have a nice day

I appreciate it sir, but i am not doing it alone. I am working with the head grower there to educate him on autos and the way that they grow and their needs. This is a weekend gig for me now and i still hold a m-f so it the day job through the week and then the farm on the weekends.

You are correct sir, the organic soil that these guys have is rather impressive. None of the plants at the farm are show def's of any kind that is from their photos and the autos that are running in there. I was so impressed that we used it for all the breeding plants too. That way all that was needed was water. I also appreciate the kind words. Seems getting out here was a good call all around for the FD clan.

Cheers my friend, thank you for the overly kind words, and i agree this is a dream. I had a friend tell me the other day that he could tell that this move for me was the best that i could have done and i have to agree. From this chance to everything else going on in my life it puts a rather large smile on my face.

I got lucky out here and was introduce to the right people. @Son of Hobbes had a contact out here that was looking to try autos, and as it turned out the farm was only a few from where i had actually moved to. Like easy driving distance from the house. We met up had a few conversations and they welcomed me in with open and willing to learn arms. the nice thing is that i dont have to teach to grow too. we just get out there and share ideas and talk and honestly the best way that you can spend your time off.

I wish you well on your legal journeys as well mate, its something to walk in there and just work with them and not have to worry. See what has been created and take it to the next step.

Its that time of the week again folks, had a little work to do out there this week. Got the second breeding tent up and they are in their final resting places.

Here are the two 4x4 tents that will house the next generations of ALF [HASHTAG]#5[/HASHTAG] (Anvil). Currently cleaned out due to moving tents but will have pics of them full soon.

Left tent is Powered by the Amare Solar Eclipse SE-500 uvb panel and as you can see the right one is powered by the twin Platinum 300's

I started with 50 to share between the two, the idea is to have one tent for the moms and one for the males until i see something i like in the male side they will then be introduced into the same environment for open pollination.


Few Pics of the JEM, Alf [HASHTAG]#5[/HASHTAG] (anvil) and some Roxi femles that the preflowers came out purple. Things are rolling right along.

Here we have the sisters that were started before the larger run. They are doing rather well and from the looks of it we should see some weight here. Nice frames and the main stems are just insane.

Flying solo, her other pot partners were male and were pulled from the pot.

Gathered around her sisters.

Three sisters to a pot here and these gals are just going to be beautiful.

And something that i have to give a big shout about, this thing is a pure beast. Little teaser for now, and i know that @PlatinumLEDTom is ready to see this in action too....Something new to the market and meant for what we are doing out here....

Got it in the room this weekend and all hung and ready to go, well be flowering out a few photos under it and giving them some data. Full on test with this beast of a light....We were in lights off for the pic, and the lines above are not whats holding this. Its set to a frame above the metal posts.

Stay tuned to see this beast of a light in action

Hi my friend
Looking so nice. Do you select some breeding plants from the big batch of plants?

I have roughly ~30 more that are not in these shots that are for breeding. We will split them apart and they will be in the tents that i posted above. They are about 2 weeks old and they have not yet sexed. I went through some of them this week to get rid of the crappy looking ones.
