Nutrients Waira's next photo' op' with Biotabs!

[Waira]

Thanks my Southa' brudda! No doubt, night shots make the most of the flash and contrast,.... weather is better now, but the after effects are haunting me--- FUCKING MOLD!
... Atomic has the most pathetic mold resistance I've ever seen, it's an embarrassment to Bomb Seeds, straight up!,... this plant is just rolling over for it, I'm cutting out patches all over at this point! Lost the top cola, and over half the branches on the rest of the plant have shown mold... Weather wasn't that bad, not at all, and was shielded from the worst of it... This shit pisses me off to no end, to release such a sorry weak poly-hybrid strain, there's no excuse- .. the bud quality is great so far, but for fucks sake, breed some goddamn mold resistance into it! -- I've seen dry climate hashplants do better in such conditions... I'm catching it right away, chopping shit out like a mad Civil War surgeon, and each day, more appears! Only thing saving the buds at the removal sites is the Optic Foliar ATAK/Transport, which is shutting it down there at least,... So, we'll see what the better weather does, and some night time fan generated air circ' does over the next few days,.. but likely, this will be an immature chop unless it halts enough for her to finish in a couple weeks,... what a shitshow of sad performance,... Bomb Seeds, no wonder you make no comment in your descriptions about this important aspect of this strain,...
Much to my relief, so far the two ripest plants, TF and CC, are showing little impact, fighting it off well , only a couple small patches... 'Phisto had a couple small patches, nothing new today though,.. C' Haze had a few surface hits, nothing stem-deep,... Psico seems OK, as does PTW,...

Gawd bud....i am honestly SCARED for my atomic now!! Lets hope those purple stalks are the ultimate in mold resistance!!! Hahahahahahhahahahhahahhahahahha

My think fast last season was pretty resilient to mold especially considering her AK47 genetics. Hoping for the same strength this season!!

..... that was on my mind a lot my friend, all this work and worry you've done, and even if she makes some bud, will it make it past even half way?? From what I see, this strain will only make it in a greenhouse that's HEPA filtered and with clean-room dressed tenders! I don't get it, why Bomb thinks this isn't important,...and that it won't get called out to any who even are considering their strains,.. I don't know what to do with the extra seeds, why would I screw over a friend giving them such a mold-feeble strain that's not likely to finish without serious hassle and disappointment?! Right now, I will wave off any who consider their gear if asked,... there are too many other fine companies out there to waste a season on strains that show this serious of a breeding flaw!

Not used to @Waira sounding so harsh . You really think that their Atomic is so fucked concerning mold resistance? Could it just be your pheno or did this happen before?

I'm asking because I was looking at some Bomb gear, but after reading comment like this from you, I'm really doubting.

 

[Waira]

hey Ryker- ... me either, on the harsh, but I'm rightly pissed, and for good reason,.. I'm an OD grower, not the best or long experienced, but I'm no fool or hack,.. my climate isn't like Northern EU, not even close,.. the least hiccup in weather, and in all the strains I've grown, some close to their landrace origins or known to be somewhat mold-prone, none have shown anything close to this level of weakness,... I can't say if it's a pheno' thing,.. it's a fem', so it's not like it's a reg. seed dice-roll on what shows genetically, right? Theoretically, they chose their best females to reverse and breed with- ... I did notice that even at their website, they make no comment about mold resistance,... from what I see here, and on this plant, the bud quality itself is great,.. but Bomb is new here, so such results from grows are now just starting to show,... who knows about the other strains? Greenskell's Cherry went south in a hurry as well,.... indeed, there's always a chance I just got damned unlucky, or the others in their line up are better for this,... but I'd give a serious "buyer-beware" heads up on them,... as for Atomic specifically, this is a deal breaker on this strain,... what a shame, because it looks so promising otherwise!

 

[Eyes on Fire]

ohh yeah Id be pissed too if I was given n outdoor strain to do too and it had little to zero resistance to any standard Outdoor grow problems such as PM,DM and the like. harsh fungi effecting the soil life and so on,so you have to use MOE of said helping hands,. . I have be wondering how my skywalker and Bubble gum XL are gonna hold out too.LOL rainy season for all is approaching quick and flowering is upon me LOL happy harvesting bro!

 

[Waira]

EoF brudda, what's up man? ... I forgot to restate, that all plants during veg, early bloom got 3 sprays with Actinovate, a bacterium that actually eats fungal microbes,... could be why the others are holding up better, in part at least,.. that fact that Atomic had this as well, and still is doing this raises more questions and doubts,... my ass was really twitching over fears for the nearly ripe TF and CC, but they have held up beautifully,... I know you'll be hawking those ladies big time, and will be able to shield them some if bad weather arrives,... ... My AG's were better than most last season, only in the last week or so did they finally start getting hit, under lousy conditions, late season, and all that,... the one late starter didn't make it, but that one was weird from the get-go, and i was done battling this shit at that point,...

 

[Eyes on Fire]

Kewl ,well hope that keeps it tamped and off the damn plant. LOL! yeah my indoor ones are alright but some depletion is going on in my AG but its doing alright. slow to spin up well but we'll see.LOL

Hey man...i do share your frustration absolutely....hopefully its just a pheno, but i have to be honest....after cherry bomb molded so rapidly and then the atomic damn....worst thing about this? I got turned onto bomb from a close local bro of mine that had great success with the Big Bomb photo...very minimal mold and nice toke for a less than perfect location.
I will not be running bomb's again after this season. I think the best move for the rest of the seeds is give them to an indoor grower with a clean freak room to grow them in.

Totally agree all around. I think indoors they have some stellar toke to be had, but outdoors forget it, unless you live in texas. Mold resist and late flower trigger are both deal breakers for me too bud. Mine is finally putting on some flower..crystal started as well...will be watching closely for the evil brown bud. If i can get into mid october with the atomic, there should be some decent bud on it(not finished though). Hoping for the best. Honestly i wish i would have chosen the WidowBomb to go in the full sun garden...she will be much closer to done by oct the 15th than atomic. Oh well...sometimes you just have to take a beating, shrug it off and walk away.

We had a harsh season of lots of rain and high humidity when i noticed some mold....i started hitting the Cherry Bomb auto with water only for a week and a half, and chopped her a fair bit early(an easy 2 weeks at least left to be finished). By that time i threw away at least 60% of the bud...every single main tip was taken over. Other strains in the same conditions? Cream Mandarin 5% loss, moby dick 5% loss, Aww XXL dinafem 5% loss, some others were bad as well 60%losss DP Glueberry, 30%loss portal nashira, DP AWW 30%loss.
