Is this a Ph problem or deficiency?

[Cat]

sorry Cat, I have been asked this before, but truth is I haven't made the decision to document anything to that degree on the forum (I do keep a grow-journal every year), partly out of paranoia, though God knows I revealed plenty to get me into BIG TARUBBLE (Zappa) already and partly I got too much going on at the best of times. no excuse really, I'm just a bit slack sometimes.

No worries, I understand that paranoia

...damned high RH! I hate dealing with it,.. makes my sphincter wink over mold/rot tryin' to get foothold! Plus, to get decent drying, you have to elevate the temp more, which leads to guess what-- more terp's lost .... anyway, I don't know about the 75% thing (trying to recall where I saw that!), seemed high, but I'm betting half at least is typical, mostly the more volatile types... Oh man, fresh bud aroma is sooo delish'! Someday my friend, you gotta try Sweet Seeds Green Poison, any version- - superb aromatics all around, but fresh bud is amazing-- lychee-lime, complex fruits blends, and it hold very close through cure! Plus, it's always dense, resin gummy, veeery potent stuff... your nose will be pasted to her from pot-to-jar, I promise! ... DP's version of BBa is excellent I hear, but I've not tried it yet,... for BB flavahs, I've been growing a once resurrected old strain call Maines Own Blueberry, actually done by current and past Staff here... HighRise seeds... Not sure if it's still bred, but I really hope so! blasting good stuff! I must try the DP-BB sometime soon, it get so much praise,... -that sounds like an excellent cross Oldbie! Dr.FG has earned much praise as well,... A-Train grew a stunning beauty of one earlier this year,... I think it won a BOM? -- that dude has 4 wins already .....

Hi @Waira, green poison sounds impressive alright. I went to strainfinders to check out the lineage (I'm a lineage nut); it wasn't terribly helpful but the powerhouse landrace in the mix seems to be Pakistani Kush.
still dabbling with bits of Blueberry; sometimes it takes me a while to get a handle on a strain, certainly in the early days; really it should be stored for at least 3 months, then I get a good hit and know what I am dealing with.
I currently have too much going on with bags and jars of stuff all over the place, drying; some seeded, some not. my 3 DR.Fs are on day 76 and still 50% white hairs so they could go another 10-20 days (so much for the 56 days start-to-finish), but as this is primarily a seed run, I will probably harvest early. I have enough seeds now to keep me going for the rest of my life; most will become unviable before I ever get to use them. I have every powerhouse strain on the planet (or at least it seems that way), so to keep buying more is plainly in the grass-is-greener-elsewhere realm; this is why I always check out lineage; its true certain breeders can work different magic with old genetics but I cant see the point in buying "new" strains that are basically the same old genetics re-branded.
anyway, suns up and my dr.F ladys are heading for another day outside to soak up some bio-photons.
see ya around man. have a good one.

Sweet says it's Skunk [HASHTAG]#1[/HASHTAG] lineage, but strongly selected for fruity aroma vs roadkill skunkiness! you are spot-on right my friend, there is a more shallow gene pool that many folks realize,.. and the medical community is looking once again outward, to unhybridized landrace strains to get those rare terpenes and cannabinoids,... Do you have some fine Asian genetics? I can tell you about one auto that's superb, worth your money: Wild Thai Ryder (World of Seeds)-- wooohhh, soaring sativa cruise missile ride high! I plan to grow her parent, Wild Thai next year,... I know, here I am telling you to go buy more seeds! but if something different and landrace-true is still on your happy list, check her out and see,...

Hi @Waira, re the Asian genetics; I was given some Mekong freebies when I ordered some Malana cream seeds from the real seed co. Malana (Himalayan) was a very tall and sparse sativa (indoors? what was I thinking?); as usual I had too many different strains going (cant resist crossing strains) so I just popped one Mekong and it was a hermie so I haven't gone back to either-
wild Thai ryder does sound very tempting, and although I am drawn to landrace strains, tropical sativas take forever to finish, which why autos have won me over-3 months as opposed to 6 is just too convenient to resist.
I hope world of seeds have upped their game because my only experience of them was a bad one; namely 5 Brazilian seeds that germinated very weakly and died; that was 10 years ago-they weren't even hermetically sealed.

Hi @Cat -Waira and I seem to have hi-jacked your thread-hope you don't mind

I don't mind at all @Oldbie @Waira I'm actually just about to order some Green poison by Sweet seeds on the recommendation of this thread. Have you ever tried the red poison?

....WTR is the auto version that I tried, and is plenty speedy- ... I totally get what you mean about those type Sativa's! My friend grew Purple Paro Valley, A Nepalese girl, and it nearly killed him! ...but even the photo version isn't that long of a season plant, at least by what they say ( http://www.worldwide-marijuana-seeds.com/products/world-of-seeds-wild-thailand )-- for what it's worth! I'm still gonna try her,... oh!- Barney's Farm has Acapulco Gold, another nice Sati'-dom that's pretty quick... Old Scholl goodness! A couple grows of it here I've seen were excellent- ...temp... tempt,.... ..I have 3 AG's going this year as part of the KindSoil test group-

>> Cat :smoking: any version of GP will make you a happy kitty! The F1FV's are my fav', and Sweet Jayp and Tommy like it best too, but Sniper ran the auto, and said it's all but identical,... very consistant strain from photo to auto,... Red Poison is excellent too, she's a child of GP's in fact! Unique aromatics, potent as heck too, so try her sometime... the colors are stunning in person!

That's good to know... so many to choose from with such little space to grow
