Mephisto Genetics Seymourbud's Soapbox

[Dabber]

Update time, I have been remiss in keeping up with my updates. Right now there are three plants in the cabinet. The first plant is only 12 day old,and it is a Blue Toof Special. It seems a bit slow, but I am hopeful that once she grows in to her new 3 gallon airpot, she will start to grow vertically. Right now she is receiving a nute mix (per gallon of RO water) of 2.5 grams of MC and 1.5 grams of Sweet Candy, ph = 6.0, ec = 513ppm. Not much else to say, picture time...

Next is a 15 day old Grape walker Kush. She is much further along in her development considering she is a couple days older. It may be that it is a matter of genetics as she has Skywalker parentage and the MG Skywalker is a medium to medium-large plant. She is currently getting a nute mix (per gallon of RO water) of 3.5 grams of MegaCrop, 1.5 grams of Sweet Candy, .75 grams of Bud Explosion and 1ml of CalMag. Ph = 6.1 and ec = 751ppm. She has shown no sign of stress from the feeding, so I am going to keep up with the modified schedule I have based on input from @Dabber and my own experience from previous plants. She has a good open structure, so I don't envision any training will be needed. Now onto the pictures.

Last plant is a 29 day old Strawberry Nuggets. She is not showing any signs of preflower yet that I have seen. She has large indica leaves, so I have been leaf tucking multiple times a day. She is just under a 12" tall, and I expect her to flower within the next 7-10 days. Hopefully there will be some vertical growth as well. She has good green color, and she is very lush, so I think her nute mix is just right for now. She already has some nice kushy-berry aroma when I get in there for the leaf tucking. Can't wait to see what she will turn into. Picture time.

Looking good

A quick-ish update and couple of pictures to document.

Blue Toof Special - Day 16 - Getting 2.5 grams of MegoCrop and 1.5 grams of Sweet Candy. She looks to finally start to grow vertically, but I am still concerned she may be a bit stunted
Grape Walker Kush - Day 19 - Getting 2.5 grams of MegaCrop and 1.5 grams of Sweet Candy. She seems to be on the opposite spectrum of Blue Toof Special. She has started to grow vertically, and I have begun to LST her to try and obtain more tops and even canopy.
Strawberry Nuggers - Day 32 - She is fully flowering and stretching, as much as an indica can fully stretch. She was at 9" a few days ago and is 13" right now. I am doing some leaf tucking each day and there appear to be 8 buds that will be at the top (or near the top) of the canopy. She really has a great aroma to her, one that makes you smell her everytime you walk by her.

Good Morning, a bit of a sad update. I got a little to aggressive with GWK while doing some LST and broke off a top. Funny thing is it just snapped, almost loud enough to hear!!! I was just getting ready to water and had watered only 46 hours before. Oh well, said my thank you to the little branch for giving me her best, threw it away, and soldiered on. These things happen I guess, just never happened to me before.

On a brighter note, took the trimmings (larf, popcorn buds,and sugar leaf) from 3 of the last 5 autos I harvested (grape Sex 1 and 2, double grape), and ran it through a 120 micron screen to capture the dry sift rosin. Still got one more plants worth of trimmings to finish, waiting for it to get good and "frozen". Looks like 5.4 grams of some fine dry sift.

PLans have changed for the end of end of the year in our household, so there will be no November-January run as the girls will be left on the own to feed and water themselves. And that aint happening. So, looks like I am going to squeeze one more 3gallon pot into the cabinet which already holds three. And have them all finished my early to mid-December. I needed a small, and quick Mephisto plant that I had in my inventory/stash. Came down to 24 carat or Gold Glue. With a bunch of folks already running GG, that's what I decided to drop. She is taking a swim right now, then into the Root Riot for germination. I figure Day 1 should be Sunday or Monday.

BTW - good news as I passed my pre employment test, and was offered and start next week. woo-hoo, now where did I put the Arizer solo????

Looking good in here buddy. Don’t worry about snapping a stem doing LST. You’re gwk is early enough that it won’t effect her much. Auxins will be redistributed and new branching will replace lost. No biggie.
Awesome strawberry Nuggets and congrats on the new gig!

 

[Seymourbud]

Thanks @Seabass , good to hear that the GWK will not be affected to much from the rough training. Everytime I bend her and think I may have overdone it, when I come back 24-36 hours later, she is as perky as can be. Looks like I might have a nice full canopy of budsites fairly even in height. The new gig is only a pt type job, but a job that I wanted and didn't want to lose due to some failure during pre-employment testing. Hoping that the green pheno of SN is as aromatic and enjoyable as the purple pheno. It will be ready to taste around turkey time.

Good dreary morning to all. Good day to do some indoor gardening, and take a couple of pictures.

Gold Glue - Day 2 - Not much to say, new seedling, hoping she is done in 75-80 days. Fingers crossed.

Blue Toof Special - Day 24 - She has finally ( in the last couple of days), seemed to have found her legs. She has moved vertically, just under 7" now, and she is as wide as the 3 gallon airpot. Hoping she vegs for a bit in order to get some additional growth. She just started a new phase of nutes, 3.5 grams of MegaCrop, 1.5 grams of Sweet candy, .75 grams of Bud Explosion, and 1ml calMag.

Grape Walker Kush - Day 27 - She has some serious training going on now. As bad as she looks when I get done tying her up, 24 hours later she is reaching for the cob(s). Absolutely remarkable. She has been on this nute phase for more then a week; 3.5 grams of MegaCrop, 1.5 grams of Sweet candy, .75 grams of Bud Explosion, and 1ml calMag. She will be moving soon to her final nutes recipe until chop day; 4.5 grams of MegaCrop, 1.5 grams of Sweet candy, 1.5 grams of Bud Explosion, and 1ml calMag. She has a fairly even canopy as I am trying to keep up with her growth, I think she will be a classic beauty.

Strawberry Nuggets - Day 40 - So all I have been doing to this girl is removing some of the under the canopy gigantic fan leaves and some minor leaf tucking. She is just moving along without any issue. She is feeding at the max level and showing no sign of dislike. Second SN I have grown and both have been almost grown on their own, very little intervention required. She hasn't started to develop her final strawberry aroma yet, but I am sure that is coming. No frost on her fans as of yet either. She does appear to be a green pheno as by this time in my last grow the purple had started to show.

 

[Dabber]

nice great job

 

[Mizzo81]

Looking really good. Our numbers r very close on nutes too. Nuggets is such a lovely strain.

Purple pheno of Strawberry Nuggets for me is very chill, not over-powering in da couch indica, but just laid back and little lazy. And I still have my wits about me I have only tested the lower buds, but that OK with me.
Perfect for a rainy day and watching movies .
