Right? I have been planning next year already. Going to get my med card here in Canada so I can grow more than 4 next summer. Nothing like under the sun!

Good on ya guys well done to all , and a big thank you to Waira for looking after the comp . .

:smoking:thanky Hec' mate! ... for my money, your dry bud of Z99 appealed to my eye most ...passionfruit aroma pushed that from inside me head too honestly-

holyyyy shit, i actually won-??! randomness rulez the universe, woot! huge shout to @Waira for runnin this comp & to @Mr B. from Female Seeds for supplyin the bean that made the win possible can't wait til next year! ppp

edit: also big gratz to @Kyote for winnin on the photo side

saaaaay WHAT??! ... Yar dude, your girl got eye-humped Sorority-style the most! ... nice pics and alllll that resin helped...

Great stuff guys! Congratulations to all of the other winners!
Big thanks to @Waira and any of the other organizers to make this fun contest/competition happen.

Looking forward to more contests in the future and trying out some new strains from the prizes seeds.
:smoking:

your live shot made bank 4d', very popular! Fugue State is also pretty photogenic as well , she can be very sugar-dipped in looks... The dry shot's can seal the deal hands down! If you can get a dark background with low ambient light + flash, it's make all the diff',....I think you might have snatched the W' from 420 if you did!

Wow, I wake up to this! I entered this comp strictly for the fun with no intent on winning anything so thanks thanks thanks!

Made my day AFN growfolks!

-- to'd ya mon, GP's resin load is damn hard to beat! I know you opted for the style shot instead (classic LOL), but I can't help but think if you did the pervy porn flash deal, you'd have bucked me off the branch for the win!
I know you are dubious about photo's, fast or not... Do your homework for checking out longer cycle auto's maybe, they would be perfect for you IMO... Dutch Passion has some, SeedStockers too,... SoFem (Talk to our girl Rebel/GreenGrass Seeds about this!), NL Gas looks to be a good'un,... SSSC Creeper did great for me outside...

Congrats to the winners. This was fun and my first comp ever... won’t be my last! Thanks @Waira for hosting and here’s hoping everyone has a great holiday! I’ll be eagerly waiting next yrs comp with a photo and auto bean ready to roll!

Jp you did well to finish strong like you did, after that hard frost! I told JayP )Sweet rep) about how tough GG is, and she made crazy resin production... I hope she's as good as she looked!

Nice! Another fun year of growing n thanks to @Waira for running the comp. Definitely my favorite grow every year is the outdoor run !

- it was great to have you back growing the Comp's beasts like last year, though @MasonJarOG went balls-out with that this year as well! ... I think he said it's back to more manageable sizes next season ....
You were juggling a few hats at least this time, breeding in particular, which the gang may take advantage of next year I hope! I'd love to see your girls plant the J-O brand flag out there ... Thanks again for the prize seeds my man, a very kind offer which looms bigger than ever this year because of the loss of Dinafem/HSO as a sponsor.... Go ahead and post info here if you like!

Ya, the shot eh? I was so frustrated with the BR, I said "here grow gnomez, this was ur job to keep em healthy dammit"

And ya, I've already been thinking on how to pull off a couple photos next summer. I think I got it figured out how to add a fan next year for more circulation if it goes damp on me again.

I do have some SoFem seeds, Seedstockers n looks like i'll have some SweetSeeds as well, so right now I feel rich :smoking:

And thanks again for herding us along through the summer and fall.

@Waira , @Sweet Seeds Jay , Gg was awesome! Super nice aroma after cure like sweet gas with floral and citrus sometimes. Friends that tried her said she was some of the most potent they’ve had in a long time and everyone loved the flavor. And.. she was stunted by frost &at least 2wks early... Thanks for the fun time! I will be getting more sweet seeds stock in the near future as I am interested in doing a red family run... prob near spring!

 

[MasonJarOG]

Congrats to @Kyote @420Forever @dankstyle J @Jean-O @4d-Rock on the grows and comp.

Thanks for hosting @Waira

Until next time...

@Kyote ... I'd look to the classic cultivars like Guerilla Gold, Freezeland, crosses-of, etc., for the speed and mold resistance... La Buena Hierba seeds has GG, and I know his breeding is excellent so it'll be real deal good! Look it up at his site... He's supposed to have some fem's coming, but exactly what I dunno yet!

Oooo that aroma profile sounds delish' Jp, and the potency is something Sweet touts and backs up!
That Tropicana Poison F1FV might be the best choice, claimed to be faster than Red Mandarine F1FV but after seeing mine run, I gotta wonder...

Congrats to @Kyote @420Forever @dankstyle J @Jean-O @4d-Rock on the grows and comp.

Thanks for hosting @Waira

Until next time...

Cheers bud, I enjoyed your beasties a lot .... next year I'm with you on smaller pots, they'll be faster to finish as well! Consider running a Fast Version and/or a well known Northern-specialized cultivar like above....

 

[MasonJarOG]

@Waira thanks buddy I have remodel plans in the works so I won’t be able to grow the monsters next year. But it’s not to say I won’t get some large potted plants ;-)) with over 5lbs for the 4 plants this season We can weather the storm.

Here is a list of the beans Ive offered to sweeten the pot for the winners. Any of you all listed can just PM me if you are interested in any of these crosses.
1- Glue X times Blue Widow
Glue x is Gorilla Glue #10 clone only super lemony terps crossed to Dinafems Blue Widow
Both plants were Indica Dominant Hybrids and both exhibited explosive growth and dense heavy yields. The Glue X had very strong pest and disease resistance which I hope helps the Blue Widow out as she was a bit finicky with the PM...
Im Calling the new cross- Blue Glue #10

2- Glass Slipper X Blue Widow
Glass Slipper is a cross of Cinderella 99 from Growers Choice seed co x Blue Cheese Auto from Dinafem it grew like a pure sativa and so are its effects. Spicy and Peppery in terps and flowered fast in 7 weeks. She had quite a bit of color also one of my outdoor plants that turned purple for me this year... Her yields were a bit lower and the buds obviously sativa in structure so Im hoping the Blue Widow crossed into her will help set her up for some heavier yields next year. Also another plant with no outdoor issues so Im hoping they can complement each other with yields and pest and disease resistance..
I named this cross- Spice Cake.

3-OG Cheese X Blue Widow
OG Cheese is a cross of bag seed Tahoe OG x Blue Cheese auto from Dinafem. This plant was a sativa leaning hybrid with a strong cheese smell and OG taste.. Powerful euphoric effects on the high end and creative throughout good all day buzz. This plant was everything I look for in an outdoor plant huge fat stacked nuggs super heavy yields and absolutely a breeze to grow outdoors no issues at all... I would expect massive yields from this new cross outdoors... Both of the plants in this cross exhibited huge heavy dense nugs and very heavy yields with some very high THC so a winner all around in my book...
Her name will be- Dank The Tank

4-Powerhouse CBD X Blue Widow
The Powerhouse CBD is a cross of ACDC CBD from Growers Choice Seed co x Blue Cheese Auto from Dinafem. She was very sativa in structure again also. The taste and aroma was super skunk fuel reminded me of the blue cheese very much. Buzz is actually pretty strong right off the rip and quickly chills into a deep relaxation with some good stress relief. She was an easy outdoor grow with good pest and disease resistance. Another one that Im hoping the two can compliment each other with yields and plant resistance.
Im calling this cross- Deep Blue

All the crosses listed are photoperiod dependent even though some have auto lineage in them. The Blue Widow used to cross all the beans with was the plant from the outdoor battle I took a clone and used colloidal silver to spray for feminized pollen.
