Indoor First Grow - Lowryder2 and Flash santa

[HomeGrownRx]

oooooo that is an awesome mix. all this time ive been loving my akr so much more than santa and thinking it was a pain in the ass comparitivley. well today i sampled some quick dried buds off my santa.

tell me do they smell and taste extremley strong of grape to you (when you get to ttry em)? ive never had grape ape or any purple strain for that matter but if this smell could be mixed with such a color pheno wow. the high was is very clear headed and long lasting. im starting to realize looks arnt everything.

thanks for the info on the genetics.

Can I get some help please? These all look like males but I just want to be sure. They all seem to have pollen balls on them to me anyway.

I am not very good at taking pictures of anything close. What is the trick to it?

Any info is appreciated. It is day 20 of Veg. I am just gonna grow females in the future I think.

Close-ups are always tricky... good enough tho... definetly males

They all look male....sorry

 

[Scott817]

boooooooooooooo *lol* well truth be told I planted 10 and was hoping for 50/50 and thats what it appears its gonna be for now. Its hard to kill em even though they are males.

The males sure did look a lot better and bigger than the females today. I am hoping at this point the last 5 will turn out female. 1 is for sure so *fingers crossed*

You could always collect the pollen and save for later, then its not a waste

This was the group that had to go tonight. See how sad they looked? They knew it was coming :twist:

There is something morally wrong with killing something called Santa*lol*

I just have a little space to grow in or I would try that but I have enough seeds now for like my next 10 grows *lol* Next run will be Russian Rocket Fuel, Speedy Gonzales, Blue Himilaya. After that its gonna be Cobra, Auto Assasin, and Onxy I can only do 4 or 5 smaller plants in my space at once currently.

Day 22 Well we only ended up with 4 females out of 10 seeds planted. I am just going with female seeds in the future. I planted a Speedy Gonzales and a Russian Rocket Fuel in tribute to the 8 fallen comrades. )

My Grow box has gone from on a budget grow to "Daddy got a nice first 1/4 bonus grow" I added a new 260W full spectrum led, a all in one carbon scrubber, and a CO2 injection setup.

Here is the setup now.

View attachment 7053 Flash Santa named Retardo. This is the one that had 2 sprouts but I pulled the smaller one as it was looking male.

View attachment 7054 Co2 spread by a fan. CO2 is injected for 20 min every 5 hours 3 times a day. 10 minutes before the CO2 comes on the exhaust fans shut down to raise the temprature in the box. After the CO2 shuts off the fans come back on 5 minutes later.

I forgot to take a picture of the carbon scrubber but here is one from the guy that makes it. Its only 14" x 6" and works really well.



Everything seems to be going pretty well except for all the males I had. The LED really brought the temp down to about room temp currently. Now I am just waiting around for them to grow up

Looks like things are progressing nicely over there! Co2 temps range should be 87-95 F lookin good mate!
