Outdoor Round 2: Waira's Mixed Bag of Tricks Combo Grow '19

[trailanimal]

It's that time again!

Back again at the grow-spot-by-the-Bay for another round of outdoor photo's, plus the tent at home for autos... This place is at a friend/clients, dead flat sea level, less than a mile from a cold Bay in CA which as always has it's share of challenges! Summer days are often foggy in part or totally, night mild... Fall is when the best weather comes thankfully but early rain is a distinct possibility. ... So, all strains chosen are made with speed and mold resistance boxes checked!

This years line-up:

-- Lilly (Original Delicatessen)... a nearly pure Sativa 3-way African cross with blazing speed, 7-8 weeks bloom...
-- Skunk Special (Female)... hoping for some road-kill stank-
-- Purple Afghani Kush (Dinafem)... fingers crossed for the pineapple aroma pheno'
-- Orange Juice (Dinafem)... orange aromatics-- yummm....
-- Gorilla Breath (HSO)... heavy hitting new strain from them...
-- Aunt of Farouk (originally Derg Corra Collective, mine repro'd by Stickman)... very excited to be trying this much beloved landrace Paki'
*-- Crack LOG (Magic)... interesting F1 cross between Legend OG and White Crack auto; not intended this year, but the Skunks were looking dicey for germ', so I started this as back-up,.. sure as shit, the Skunks made it after all.. works every time! ... Now, as an F1 auto x photo cross, it's very unlikely to auto, but it can and HAS happened with other such crosses, so we shall see,....

Tent Auto's:
-- Night Queen (Dutch Passion).. hoping for that elusive strawberry pheno,...
-- Citrus Noir (Stone's Autoflower Portal)
-- Cherry Bomb (Bomb)
-- C99 (HPG).... later start on these, I tried some old GHz99 beans, but they failed, so I started this parent... a couple of these stalled out too, older seeds as well, but I think I have a winner now!

>> Soil: this year it's Empire Builder (Sanctuary Soil) for final pots of the photo's, seedlings started in Roots Organic original
Auto's are in King's Mix (Royal Gold), very happy with this soil, it did great last year! All auto's are in a milder blend using GBD/Mephisto's dry soil amendment mix, but will get supplemental additions as deemed needed,....

>>. nutrients/supplements: the usual mixed bag there again,.... I'm giving Megacrop2.0 another try, but mainly as a base veg' nute, I will very likely be switching at least in part to another bloom base or seriously supplementing it, but I'm not sure what just yet... possibly mainly organic? I will be using Sweet Candy and Megazyme from GLN as well,...
The salt substitute is for Cl, a micronute often overlooked and seldom included for whatever reason,...
...here's most of the spread-->

>>> OK, pics of the gang, all in the tent for now, but the photo's are on light reduction and phasing to outside starting tomorrow... Meantime, the auto's started at 24/0 for a week or so, now will finish on about 19/5....
I think for the photo's, all will be topped at 5th node when ready,... AoF maybe not though, we'll see... they are reg's, and hoping for 1 female out of the 3 at least!

>>> auto's: tent is 4x2, pots are 9L, lights AutoCOB's
...little ones, C99... ones in the big pot are looking weird, and somehow got double planted! .... clockwise right from there is NQ, CN, and CB,....
pending on how those C99's shape up, they may get yanked out and the styro' cup one slipped in....
They are showing an odd Mg defc., not sure why, but the last round in the GBD mix did this too..... hitting them with Optic Foliar Overgrow supplemented with micronutes, soil treated with Ca-Mg since I'm using a blend of RO and hard tap water,...
These 3 were started beginning of June,...

Hi Waira
I run the cross in the start of the year. I liked the structure from the Afghan Helmand grow like a typical indica the smoke was also great can't explain the taste (I have to look for the English words sorry)

The Marocco seeds I will collect myself. I can visit the Rif mountain region and different farms with friends from my family I be invited with my hole family wife and kids by some farmers there to look for seeds they know spots in the mountains where you can find wild indica it's far away from the farms and they take seeds from there to keep their own seedstock good. I don't know if I got it this year if not then 2020 , I wasn't in Marocco before and my friends tell me every year I have to travel with them now my kids are old enough and we got people carring for the dogs and cats.

To DeepChunk I never grow them but read a lot. Is that strain breed by TomHill do you know?

Tobe mate, how did I miss that Helmand cross? Are there pics someplace?
Oh man, going to the Source is an amazing opportunity! I can only imagine how fun it would be to hike around and look for those special wild plants to collect from-
.... Be careful mate, you may find me hiding in your luggage next trip-
.... DC is indeed a Tom Hill masterpiece! Stick has made some crosses with too, right?

Hey hey hey! I am subbed! Thanks for the tag Waira, and the chance to eye hump your ladies a bit. They look to be off to a great start, love your strain selection.

DG! Miss you, my pervert partner in crime. Let's get our eye humpin' grow boners on!

I got two nast-eh chicks in my thread,... heh! heh!...allll-riiight,.....

alrighty! green above brown!

Cheers guys! Yes, Female seeds got me again this year- Cases are really hard on these, had the same hang-up's last season, but they busted out in the end,... I may need to find homes for a couple of the over-stock girls down the road,... but right you are, to have back-up's is only wise, it's getting late for any re-do's.... We'll see what the CrackLOG's do, one will stay no matter what! Gennaro (Female) PM'ed me with some great info on the Skunks,... 2 main pheno's, one a bit faster than the other, both are stank, but one is sweeter, the other has the funky cat-pee notes which is fine by me! ... I had a bag of cat-piss buds years ago, think it was a weird Trainwreck pheno(?),... man did it reek in the jar, but the smoke was excellent; like stinky cheese, it's aroma isn't what it tastes like at all, and the room smoke smell was unique and very nice-

Hope you get the stinkiest! My hopes for a reeker this go round lie with Skunk/Strain Hunters and Super Skunk/SeedStockers

 

[Waira]

I was asking about stankers a while ago, a 3-4 peep's mentioned Super Skunk as a very likely candidate from what they had,... Strainhunters, if they live up to their billing, will offer you the same!

Who's this pretty lil thing eh?!??

Good to be back!

Howdy mates! Yes indeedy, it's nice to have our happy place back open.... .
... full update coming today, I have to reshoot the photo's first,.. actually the auto's can go up now... ............. Blooo that's the dual C99a's, one is going Mini-Me style!

 

[Waira]

OK let's test an update here,.... tent auto's first, new photo' pics later.....Cherry Bomb is not auto'ing, or never was and labeled wrong, so she's now a photo for all practical purposes! .... meantime the CN and NQ are making light arrangement a challenge, both are still stretching some, about 3' which is a problem in a so-called 5' tent!

>>> C99a's -- still squat but starting to throw her laterals out finally; 2rd one is staying small, almost like an oversize branch

>>> Citrus Noir

>>> Night Queen
