Gnome Automatics My Journey to ALF#5

Few shots of the Alpha Male. He still hasnt stopped giving me things i want.

Nice clusters, open structure, large pollen sacks, his main stem is thick, and his branches have knuckles forming already and there is no potential bud weight. Then there is thing thing about color...hes showing that too..

Sorry these are in hi res

Hi
Nice male you got, looks like a interesting project. I am in to see what nice strain you breed.
good luck with your project i wish you much healthy and potent seeds.

Ahh tobe, glad to have you along mate. Appreciate the kind words on the Male as well. Most dont appreciate them but those of us who do know when there is a pretty one.

hope all is well with you and i know you are working on something over there.

Hi my friend
Its all good at my site, still waiting till i can restart breeding and growing, and working on a website for the breeding collective i established with a good friend.

So here is the progress on the female, and as i stated she got a little burnt from ferts as my aprentace got a little excited with tigerbloom and cooked it a bit. She hasnt slowed but shes not as pretty any more....seed is on my mind thought but should be good to see what these buds look like.

Id love to have my hands on some original DC beans, id love to BX the dragon to her and see what would happen. Hell or even bring a male to the DC, either way the BX would be a meld i think. It has enough separation from the original mother that a BX would be in order i think to isolate more of the heavy resin production. I think that the dragon is hiding that trait, somewhere its in there we just havent see it yet, i think that we get color blind sometimes and miss the other traits, i know i do.

So these seeds are circa 2008 or 09. The brother who donated them to me, said that they were in the fridge most of the time. It would be nice to get at least 5 to pop, with two males and three females would give enough seeds. DC takes the longest of any strain I have grown to get of any size in veg, with almost zero stretch. Gotta love TH's logo, very 70's. Will have plenty of F2 seeds to send out as 'testers' to breeders and heirloom preservationist. Nice to know one has original TH DC. I won't be getting to this OP seed repro until June or so, as I have a couple other reproductions to do first, on some @Waira Cannabiogen Pakistan Chitral Kush and Cannabiogen - Taskenti
A 98% Indica originated in Uzbekistan. Its name comes from one of the best hash in the world, according to experts; a very powerful and resinous strain, of enormous yield, mainly outdoors.
I must say that the Taskenti isn't 100% pure landrace but has a bit of Northern Lights in its genetics, although it's said to be bred to a +98% uzbekistan hashplant.
It has a refined and subtle hashish perfume, a shade between mint and lemon, very intense.

Oh, I do have quite a few Purple Peyote x Maple Leaf Indica. I will have to do a big run, and find some purple phenos
I do love my indicas, the sati's fuck with me too much in the head. I cant do that racy head feeling it gets me all spacey. i get super super paranoid on them and that is not for me
That is exactly how I am now. Seems like even 20% sati is too much for me anymore. I just don't like how it so fucks with my head.
this was a 10 seed run and a repro for me. 2 Males, 8 females.very if any variation going on
Wow, those WJs, are I believe the most homogeneous AFs I have yet to see. They look like they could be clones, and so nice that even the male looks exactly the same. Great job! I don't think many growers think about what it takes in the time and patience it takes to make such a stable strain.

Oh, I have noticed in a couple of post you mention "the dragon trait" can you elaborate on what that is for this novice?Thanks.

Peace.

They should be fine as long as they were stored in cool area. When i revisited the WJ to take it to f8 the seed was well around 5 or 6 years old and i paper towel germed them and got 95% 9 out of 10 cracked and i was able to roll to F8. They are hearty plants and as long as they were cool stored they should be fine. Id love to watch you repro those, that is for sure and if you had a few extra if they pop im sure id give a left nut to get a few or do some swapping with you for sure.

Seems that you have quite a few strains there that are rather interesting, i too am a seed collector as well as preservationist. I like to bring out the older genetics over time to make them resurface as well as bring in some hidden traits that get lost over time. I also have my eyes on the purple peyote i got a nice pay this week and i think im going to order some of those pure beans to see what comes of them. Time to go get a pre-paid credit card to make me order.


That is exactly how I am now. Seems like even 20% sati is too much for me anymore. I just don't like how it so fucks with my head.

Yeah i start getting into the 30% or higher and i can feel the race, and the paranoia that sets is sucks for me. I just dont like the racing thoughts that it gives me and all the spins. Not a fan at all freaks me out.

Thank you i really appreciate it, its take some time but they are what i want. They are a great sedative, not a hammer high but more for muscle relaxation and pain relief. They also have a stable auto genetic, so they are a great tool to bring the AF gene in to something that you want to make auto. Id be curious at this point to see what they would do to a photo stain and what the F1 stock would look like and if i were lucky a few F1 autos...

The fraternal parent on this one was a Black Dragon (ALF [HASHTAG]#4[/HASHTAG]) from @Mossy I got the seeds at F2 and took a selection and made F3 with them. Then took the F3 male and introduced him to the mother. Which at this point ill mention was a Bubba Kush female. the F1 from those two have had two distinct phenos so far. One that is super like the mother, which is the selection to make the F2 this round, and the other pheno is like the Fathers line of the dragon. Heavy ripples in the fan corigations and the head or crown bud usually elevates above the last set of fans kind weird half kush like. So when i mention Dragon im talking about the OG pappa in the line, and ill do better to actually point those out.

Really glad to have you along @StickMan
