Nice job on the transplant!
Thanks! I was a bit nervous but I also knew I couldn't hurt it too bad doing it this way, as it was supported mostly thru the whole transfer. And who'd have thought you could get a plant that big under a DIY light drawing only 78 watts? Can't wait to see what she does under the Mars Hydro light!
Seedrun In The Clonecab!
I decided to expand my seedbase for guerilla grows ( and just for the hell of it ). O'm growing 15 plants in 16oz solo cups in my clone cab, under my DIY LED light. 8 plants are R2 of my CushDog cross, 5 are MOB x Stone x Jack ( Maine's Own Blueberry x Stone Dragon x Jack Herer ), and 1 Northern Lights. I'll move the MOB x Stone x Jack out when I pollenate the other plants from a CushDog male, as they are maybe a week to 10 days younger and I'm hoping for a male from them. Then NL is just as an experiment, to see if I get a bigger plant using this for a cross. In the cab with them for a couple more days is a Russian Dragon x Think Different male. The seeds for this were gifted to me. I have a female RD x TD in my grow room thats looking very nice. I dusted a couple of her flower with some of this pollen to keep the line going.

ok, I lied.........they aren't solo cups, they are cottage cheese containers I've saved to use as flowerpots....lol!

lol..I got 32oz yogurt cups I got for the same purpose haha.
Recycle, reuse, reclaim!
Update:
What a difference 6 days makes! Most of these plants are growing like crazy! And.. dunno if this is good or bad, seems they are too early to me, I have 2 males! Hell, I don't have any females showing sex yet, I'm concerned with the timing. guess I may have to collect and store pollen. I'm also building an isolation area for males out of an old tote. I'll stand it on end and mount a couple LED spot lights in it, just enough lighting to keep them alive until I need them or they are completely ripe. GOOD news though! The Durrty Dragon x C99 is a male and an auto! Definitely will use some of this pollen, in fact, I plan to dust the Northern Lights with it, and store some pollen also. I want to grow more of the DD x C99 and try to get more autos of that mix for testing, as I've not grown any but this one yet.
Pollen: I'm experimenting with a new way ( to me at least ) of storing and using pollen. I'm collecting pollen using freshly opened ( and thus sertile to my knowledge ) cotton swabs. Pollen clings very well to the cotton. The swabs make for very convenient application and storage. I just coat one end real well in pollen, and place it in a ziplock freezer bag. I put about 10 swabs per zip. I put a desiccant pack in with them and store in the freezer. I'm testing also, short term storage of the pollen this way. I've put one zip in my seedbox for use soon. I want to see how long it will be viable this way. hoping fpr 2-4 weeks.
My SD seedlings at the front of the cab are doing well also. they were planted about 8 days after the cushdogs. I’m hoping for a male, and if I have one, I'll isolate all the SD to be pollinated by the SD male
I've also now have my clonebox up and running again with 2 Blue Dragon clones in it. I'm keeping a momma plant to clone from and these are the first clones. This is one of those plants though that doesn't seem to like being cloned so I don't expect more than a 50% success rate.

Update:
Seedrun coming along nicely. I moved the NL and the MOB x Stone x Jack to the veg cab and the DD ( Fire x C99 x 18) male. Also put one of the CushDog F2's in the growroom. I've got the CushDog male leaning over the three females and will chop him tomorrow. I'm collecting pollen from the C99 male today and will chop him after. Next up in the cab? Hmmmmmmmm Think its time to grow several Dragon Kush!
