[Waira]

ooOOooo, looky at all those glossy dark-leaf CMD beauties! What light are they under FD? These ones look pretty compact-?... I got my eye on the top left one in the 6-pack pic! --is it me, or does that one have leaner leaves? .... yeeeshhh, that color expression is amazing... looking at the tip of the new leaves, they look ink dipped!

They are somewhere around the 17-20 day mark my friend. There is one that has shown sex tonight. I had a chance to get in and get a little personal with them and found an early female.

These are P2 which was grown out of the party cup. The geno that went all black on me.

Here is the first girl to show tonight cant wait to see who shes going to be

Cheers mate and here is something to look forward to. One of the F2 on the P3 plant, the large yielder that finished last, is showing black precursors.

What a nice color my friend, can't wait to see her in full flower.

I have smoked forever and had no clue about the actual plant growth. This makes a nice toke even sweeter! I certainly appreciate it so much more

I think that is the key man, once you grow your own you tend to appreciate what you have done so far. I can tell you this, it has dont that for me and another thing, it makes me a weed snob now. I usually dont get into a ring with out my own smoke anymore. Nothing better than being around a group of people and they all break out buds to share and i throw down a black or purple bud. Minds get blown, but i never share where it comes from.

Yeah man, typical for my little ones, showing signs of uptake and healthy roots. They are under the twins...P300's and at 34 inches below. WAY over the recommended height at this stage for platinum lights. The thing is i am running both switches at this point, the bigger girls and the peppers are in there in flower so they need the added boost. So the little ones get the same treatment they seem to be able to take the intensity that is for sure, a couple are tacoing but not bad, it does not bother me to see that, lets me know im putting down some par.

Yeah there is one that has leaner leaves than the rest, which is nice to see as it gives me hope for a true sati, or haze line. Well talk more about that in PM mate. Tooooo much to type out here.

Cheers @tobe i cant wait either, the thing is and i hate to admit this, but they look like SHIT today but that is ok. Im doing it on purpose, to see how hardy they are as well as what stress they can take and not hermi as well as still produce something for the grower. Its the price of breeding proper and i hate to watch plants struggle but watching them recover is worth the time.

Hi @FullDuplex
I know the price of a breeder. In my projects i got some bad generations and had to go a step back genes are hard to control.
For me the most important thing is to get good and stabil start genetics to work with.
My Orang Assault line takes some years to have them near stabil.
I start with a Orange bud photo cross them with a lowryder2 worked them out to a full autoflower and cross in a auto ak47. Now i am at generation f4. The strain is stabil in flavor tast and high only the structure is a bit different but in one or two generations they will be ok for me.
I started this project to have a good medical strain for my girlfriend, she used them for depression and for a friend who was a soldier, he also got strong depression.
....sorry for a bit hijacking, i don't write more about my other projects.... if you want to know more pm me to hold your thread clean.
Have a nice day and happy breeding

Quick yap @tobe you can never hijack a thread that belongs to me. We're here to share and I love the stories more than I like seeing pics. Well maybe about the same but stories and breeder work always has a place in my threads sir. I'll pm shortly mate. Would love to have a yap on a few things.
