Epic Starting material....

[DCLXVI]

What's a safe ppm of a 20-20-20 soluble with chelated minerals? I've been giving them a sip of 6.0ph 450ppm every three days to run off in straight canna coco. Backed up the lights and have seen an improvement. I think i may do seed runs in organic mix from now on.

On the 500 scale.

Seedlings? Seems a little strong to me but see how they respond. I try to ramp up slow from 250ppm to 400ppm over the first 4 weeks. Easy to add more if they like it but tricky to back off if you overdo it. I'm new to coco so take that with a grain of salt but it's worked well in a couple solo cup runs through veg. Flowering is a different story.....

Yeah likely good advice. I'll tone it down till they really take off. Can't unburn em.

NCH x SB

People already got the other abbreviations, but SB is "Sour Bubbly", Mephisto's cross of their 24 Carat x Hubbabubbasmelloscope. NCHxSB (Northern Cheese Haze x Sour Bubbly) was an experimental freebie test cross they sent out a year or so ago. A couple people on the MephHeads subreddit who grew it said it got pretty big.

Thanks a bunch!

Ever notice showing your plants feels like showing your kids, some kinda special some actually special lol. I ph fucked these girls due to a meter.beomg broke. I should have noticed that I was putting in more down .

Yes it's a mess but I work an incredibly hard job many hours a week and have photo rooms that I focus on. I just don't want to be one of those guys that flakes out. Home sick. So video.

Got the nutes on order so using a. Backup back of something with too much amonia in it. Backing down feed and keeping note of picky girls.

Topped and defiled a sweet and sour to see what happens. It's been -35 here lately so I be using HPS lol. Heats the house.



I feel like I'm should have practiced a bit more with autos first lol. I culled any pots with more than one.

I'm hoping they recover and get growing fast after the low pH. I prefer the drops but they made them illegal here for some reason.

DSC, Welcome to the Breeding game! Your set-up is enviable to say the least.

I have sometime on my hands so here are my pennies:

Mephisto: IMO you can't go wrong with Meph gear. The vast majority of their cultivars are head and shoulders above the rest of the auto market.

Sour Stomper - I hope your one seed works out for you. Meph has used this strain in a number of crosses, including but not limited to:

• Double Grape: Sour Stomper x Grape Crinkle
• Forum Stomper: Girl Scout Cookies Forum Cut x Sour Stomper F4
• Skystomper: Sour Stomper F4 x Auto Skywalker F4
• Sweet and Sour: Toof Decay x Sour Stomper
• Sour Patch Bears3 Bears OG x Sour Stomper

Duch Passion:

• Auto Lemon Zkittles - you might want to try and find a fast finisher because the XXL I've grown from DP tend be closer to 100 days than 75.
• Auto Glueberry O.G. - Classic strain that has been around the auto market forever. Haven't grown it personally.

NightOwl:

• Galaxy Brain, Grizzly Crinkle, Sour Gummy Bears, Pino Noir, Cosmic Apprentice, Sweet + Smelly - really can't go wrong here. Nightowl has a google sheets doc that lists a lot of detail about most of these. Click here

RocBud: (one of my favorite breeders)

• The Fringe , Magic Cookies Auto(Fem) V1.2, Passion Punch- I've grown all three of these an enjoyed them all. The first two are going to lean toward baked goods (cookies-ish) and the Passion Punch was super tasty but grew really fat airy buds.

Rando Vials:

• MBAP X 3BOG - This sounds like a great cross! Kinda like a backcross with the MBPA being (3 Bears OG x Ripley's OG)
• BLACKBERRY - If I had to guess, this is the Blackberry Kush from EU (FastBuds or maybe Seedstockers). I've grown the FastBuds blackberry a number of times. Usually it turns a very nice dark purple, but seems to lack potency.

Suggestions for F7 auto flowers that are worthy of breeding - There really aren't too many auto breeders that have worked lines that far. 100% agree with @blue that Gnome is where you want to look. I have Anvil and Coal Miner's Daughter available but can only ship within the US (Sorry!!).

That's enough from me! Looking forward to seeing this project blossom.

I just noticed you didnt correct me on Dutch Passion lol. I gotta get a new phone. Types funny.

Plants bounced back nicely now that I'm using a new meter - Magic Cookies Auto 1.2 from RocBud is the first to throw pistils, both of them are the only two that threw their first pistols. I'm starting to realize the massive error in timing I have setup for my original plan . . .stomper is in a bigger bucket and might not pop in time to impregnate everything lol.

Ok so showing sex as well now are grizzly crinkle, Galaxy brain, passion punch, Pino noir, The fringe ..

 

[DSC]

Ok so updates. These are pics from area 1, I'm going to have two areas, both bred with different 'dads'.

Here's the pictures.

So far visually I am a huge fan of the magic cookies, fringe, Pino noir, passion punch, sour stomper and grizzly crinkle. My bet would be magic cookies is fastest pollen dropper, Pino noir looks like she'll be the highest yielded. Could be easy way off. Lol.
