Hey all. Life has finally provided me with the time to catch up on the site and post one of my current grows. I can't believe how much the site has grown since I was last around!! Awesome stuff!! :smokebuds:
OK... the strain: PGH came from a project that JM and I worked on a while back. We're not 100% sure of the genetics, but here's what we do know: It started with a seed that came in a bag of OG Kush. Turned out to be fem and it was used as a mother for a SOG. In an accompanying SOG in the same chamber was some fem NL5. Upon harvesting one of the batches of OG Kush, we found a bunch of seeds. We named the seeds PGH. I've grown out 20 of these and every single one has been fem. Some of the phenos have been OG Kush-like with very strong limey and minty smells and tastes. Others have appeared somewhat NL5 like in terms of their leaves, bud structure, and the spicey, rubbery smell and taste. Here are pics of two PGH's that I'm currently growing out to use as mothers for a small SOG:

So, it's kind of a mystery. The fact that every PGH seed that I've grown out has been fem makes us think that the OG must have popped a male flower somewhere and pollinated that plant and a couple of nearby plants. That wouldn't explain the phenos that act NL5'ish though....
Anywho.... JM and I decided to try and run PGH into a fully auto strain. JM worked his magic and polly'd a couple of PGH's with some ALF#3 and I'm growing out the resulting beans to test. Out of 10 beans started, 9 popped. 6 fems and 3 males. No autoflowering traits this time around, but DEFINITELY a noticeable amount of increased vigor with the ALF#3 added.
Collected pollen the other day off of all three males. Here are pics of the two males I will be using as sperm donors for this round when the time comes (4 weeks after going into 12/12):

And here are pics of the 6 ladies (4 weeks after going into 12/12). I decided to pair up two of them into one pot and LST the bejeezus out of them. Also, thanks to FullDuplex for the tip on allowing for more root drop!
