BG#3 aka "knuckles" - story, photos, and harvest

So I got VERY disappointed after I noticed that one of the three seedlings was a super mold magnet, and one.. THIS ONE... was all floppy, and sparse. I hate putting out bad jourals, and so I just sorta ignored it for a while, hoping the distaste would go away. It did not. I killed GB #1 (the one in the BIG pot.. of course), and knuckles got tucked in next to one of my mama Glue Breaths. She never did get any taller. Here are some photos of her growing, that I saved... just in case she ever started to swell up. She never did. But you guys deserve to see wht happened anyways, to se what they turned out to be.. the one that survived turned out to be ULTRA FUEGO.. still not as good as my mama, and I couldnt tell until it was almost over that there was going to be anything to her at all, so there is that. I kept this open so that I would be able to at least post harvest photos of the two, even if they never amounted to much.
Here is knuckles. She stayed under 3ft tall. and I ended up getting about 1.5oz off her. what a waste. The first two photos were taken Feb 20th. This was just before I killed GB1. (ill post info about the other GB2 in a separate page.)

Here she is on APRIL 14TH. Her buds are light as air. I keep hoping at this pont that they will harden up, or get some size.. SOMETHING.. but they dont. And shes a midget.

Great photo's and good job. I am subbed into learn and share. I have grown a few Mephisto's strains and love em.
 
why thank you! I'm in the process of filling up my blog with what I currently have growing. I'm perpetually harvesting, planting, and there's always something interesting going on. Not only my glue breath, but i also have 5 mystery seeds I dropped at the same time. Its just the GB was just so strong, they popped up within 48 hrs of planting (from a soak till they sank) . I'll be starting a journal on them when they come up. I would love to share and get help with those too because I have no idea what they are! they could be literally anything cannabis.
 
Very nice. I'm all for the keeping of genetics by smaller growers, and that looks a lovely plant. I had a similar issue myself, with a Jamaican Haze & was rewarded with a single lovely female in the last seed.

Can't wait to see more.

Me either. The one i have of her growing now, is really a pain to deal with. She get light stressed SO easy. does NOT like more than 14 hours of light, period. and she HATES LED light. Once I drop her down to 12/12 , and her spectrum changes some, she goes from a light green, scraggly streesed out mama to the lush tree you see in the photo with the DARK leaves(blue background). They look like two different plants. If you dont do at least 2 drastic trims, and some intensive training out,you won't get much but some amazing tops, and a whole lotta larf. She was one of my first 5 plants to pop (the other 4 were mephisto)and she's the primary reason I've gotten as good at shaping plants as I have. It would be nice to get both a male and female out of these seeds. She reminds me so much of that old school Northern Lights I used to get, and you don't see much anymore. drives me crazy not knowing her lineage

unfortunately, all my seeds were female:( my search continues for a male like her. It was funny, NEITHER of her sisters was anything like her either. One I call Lemon Funk, I'm keeping her. the other was soso. skinny, not a lot of bud. REALLY weak stems. flopping all over the place. My chances of finding a male thats like her now, are slim to none. You just dont see Northern Lights out there much anymore... unless I'm missing a strain? You got any suggestions for a Nor Lights-leaning male? I was REALLY hoping that one of them would be a male.
