Im finding the amnesia traits carry over very well. You see it in the leaf and strong side branching.

I was thinking of maybe back-crossing to the Amnesia again, if i find a male that i like.
we'll see, it'll be a while before i do another seed run. and i still have other F1s to test from these last Spyder crosses (Tutti Frutti X Spyder & Afghan Kush Ryder X Spyder).


I wish i had more space, I wanna see how big these things can get!

Man from what I have grown they stay small. I am going to plant a few amnesia in a few weeks, i have yet to see much difference between plants. all are small autos.

on this one the new growth is kind of a bright pink, before turning to a darker purple as it ages
 
Outstanding! Seems like your doing everything about right. Go easy on the General Organic nutes. Seem to stay in the soil and can make it hot over time. I'm looking at it more on this grow, they really seem to build a high microbial count.
If its anything like "THINK" a go box may last you 9+ plants.
You can always add more.

right on, Hank. i'll keep that in mind.


in case anyone was wondering, here's a little info on my feeding and soil:

i usually only feed every other, or every 3rd watering, with some molasses thrown in every once in a while. since i live in the desert, there is always very low humidity, so i usually have to water frequently. (this low RH is good for mold issues, but bad for drying/curing)

these plants got a good strong feed 2 waterings ago (General Organics flower/bloom lineup for #1 & #2, and G.O. grow lineup for #3).
last time was just plain RO water.
this watering i used some molasses, and a very weak dose of the flowering lineup from the Go Box. i'll probably give them plain water again the next time they're thirsty, then another good feed to hopefully get those buds swellin'.

i also have been reusing my soil (unless there are issues, then i just toss it) and amending it with worm castings, perlite, and Happy Frog dry organic fertilizer. and every once in a while, i'll throw a fresh bag of Ocean Forest in as well. i also use some of the Diamond Black from the GO Box when i water my re-mix. i keep it all in a large storage container to let it "cook", and have a smaller container for ready to use soil. some of it also gets used outside for my peppers, and hopefully some tomatoes and other vegetables in the future.

i also have some compost that's been cooking all summer on my back patio. i'll probably use some of that next time i do another large soil mix up. it's looking nice and black, with a good earthy smell to it. it doesn't stink like it used to. i need to stir it up real good again and make sure it's ready for use.
i've put in some old potting soil, all of our used coffee grounds, egg shells, fruit and vegetable scraps, plant trimmings, grass clippings (both fresh and dried), and whatever else seemed appropriate and organic.

i plan on using most of the compost outside for fruits and vegetables and herbs, either in raised beds, or most likely in self-watering containers. i've seen some cool instructions on building them out of buckets and storage containers, of which i have both :)
