Thanks Stitch!
Still have yet to see any signs of sex on the PHaze-47, but once there is, I will be asking about selection quite a bit I would imagine, I don't have a lot of experience with Sativa dominant strains... You are one of the first breeders I would ask advise from; thanks again for the encouragement!

no problem my friend, it is normal that i can help u in a new experience that you can get with auto sativas..... the only thing that we have to be sure for this job is the real sativa roots of the plant that you selected for this job and the real stability of it....if it is too much unstable, this can induce to several problems....like many fenotips, size, smell, leafs looking, etc...
did u used one and only auto male to polinate the SSH female?
did this SSH female still in your possesion? it is a clone or a good mother plant?

I am not the origional producer of the seeds, but from what I hear, the SSH is from Mr. Nice seed bank, and the other parent was auto PAK-47.... (not remembering which was the dad and which was the mom) So because of all this I'm relying on the supplier of the seeds to inform me of all the little facts that are useful for the selection process... I don't know if we will be BXing or what, but I have a feeling there is gonna be a nice new super auto Haze soon.... There are the 4 other plants that are full auto and starting to flower, the Thaipan 2.0 X PAK-47, so I figure I may be crossing the PHaze-47 with the Thai-47 for a sort of a weird BX across the gene lines to end up with some F1s that have around 25% auto and is very sativa dominant with a ton of phenos to work with...

The plants have been doing Pilates to strengthen the stems and reduce some height :dance:, been going in the tent twice a day to bend everything down, around the pot, and everything is responding well to it... Gonna go check sex again, the lights had been reduced to 16/8 a day ago so if there are any photo-specific plants they should begin to show soon....

Well I finally got all my shit together and set up the 2 X 600 watt digi ballasts, running an HPS in one hood and a super MH in the other; both currently zeroed in on the one half of the tent....

Later as growth increases I will be using the whole tent of course....

I have been training the PHaze-47 quite a bit without string or supper-cropping, but gentle working 2-5 times a day and am getting some very sturdy stems for the heavy ones... Also trying to get a little more side branching earlier to max the yield a bit more.. It usually looks as though a tornado came through the tent but they will be popped back upright within hours!

Right after the "wind" came through a couple days ago:




Today after reorganizing the tent a bit with the 2 new ballasts and complete spectrum setup:



I will be flipping the lights to 12/12 within a few days now if there is still no sex signs on the PHaze-47....

Thanks for watching! :thumbs:

Well here ya go, some good news is that right before the 12/12 flip I found an early male and two early females all with great structure and size... I labeled them as possible breeders
6 confirmed females so far, top 4 are Thai-47 (full auto), bottom two are PHaze-47...

If I remember my photo order, this is the early male:

This is one of the 2 early females:

I have now had them for 4 days at 12/12 and starting to see some stretch, I have a feeling I'll be tying things down later on....

See ya next update! :howdy:

Just rearranged the tent after killing males :ama: and such, got the lights lined up now instead of side by side and still dual (full) spectrum at 1200 watts HID and a fail-safe 125 CFL on a separate circuit (there are 12 total females):



These are theThai-47 (last 4 on the right in the tent):



The SMH side:



Running between 72-80 max fluctuation. I can't believe I am reading a RH percentage! It is sooo dry around here usually....:



Just a couple of the Thai-47s outside for pics in the sun:



This is the most like the original Super Silver Haze:



So all in all, everything is going well except some neglect to the party cup dwellers....

Awesome brother this Thai-47 is amazing man!!!

 

[surffreak23]

Woo Hoo!!!!!! I am sooo excited about what I found today.... A very tightly formed bud on one of the 3 males I have of the PHaze-47, and it seemed to grow overnight; but that's not all..... COLOR!!!

I'll let the pics do the talking, but, suffice to say the purple is very early to show, even among pure PAK-47 from what I've seen....



I think I'll use this to pollinate a few branches on the main breeder female PHaze.... The rest of the seeds will be made using the large non-colored male, in search of a fast finishing/auto haze...

Again this color change happened overnight with no drop in temps!
