I was gonna feed them again because normally I top dress every 30 days but I didn’t cause I wasn’t sure if they would go longer like the Maiden and now I’m seeing I should of just fed them anyway when I saw they weren’t ready. Oh well lesson learned and the next run I won’t make that mistake.

These are nice and frosty with a good size yield for a .75 gal pot. Can’t wait to chop them soon and have a taste
 
Back at it finally… but it feels good to be back doing something I love.

Platinum Float (feminized)
(GMO Rootbeer Bx X Platinum)
bred by In House Genetics

PF #1 was a stand out by far so i culled all but her. The vigor was easily quadruple the other two plants, both the other ones had some deficiency issues too while PF #1 was green and healthy as can be. everything was grown in the same medium with the same amount of food and light. They all had/have loose nodal spacing. Since only the strongest go through to the flower tent… they Gonzo

Fizzy Cola F1
(Grape Stomper Og x Gmo Rootbeer Bx)
Bred by: Huckleberry Farms

Fc#1 and FC#2 are both growing about the same speed, recover from training quickly, had no deficiency issues, medium nodal spacing,


Blackberry Stomper F1
(Stomper Xpress X Blackberry Sugarcane)
Bred by: Freak Genetics

BBST#1 and BBST #2 I am manifolding. The nodal spacing is so tight that I figured training can’t hurt
 
I had an idea the other day and decided to run with it. I have never really had any mom or Pop plants. i mean I’ve kept a nice plant and tried to run it again but it didn’t perform the same. So I decided to do a mom and pop hunt. I’d like to lock down 4-5 plants that I don’t mind smoking regularly and then I can rotate in a few new flavors here and there as I get bored but still have the keepers on stand by for projects and top shelf smoke.

if I find something really good I’m gonna clone it then run the rest of the seeds I have of those strains to see if anything better pops out. If not I keep on trucking. If something better does pop out I’ll switch them out and keep the better of the two

So here is what I popped to start the hunt;

I loved that pigs in a blanket and when I saw your pics of the perfect match I knew I had to grow it out asap. I’m hoping I find one like you did. Or even a pigs leaner with that liverwurst garlic funk oh man!! If only I had a time manipulation ray…

I’m really excited for quite a few of these.

Day 61 of flower

Strong aroma of sweet berries, grapefruit, eucalyptus, and garlic

Very short structure and dense stacking. But tbh I love this strain. It’s always extremely frosty with top tier terpene and trichome production. This is my 3rd time running Blackberry Stomper F1 and will definitely not be my last. There may be a reveg in this girls future
 
Fizzy Cola F1 #1
IMG_3493.jpeg
My favorite grower, strong stems, recovered quickly from training and finishing first out of the two. With lots of trichomes and stacking like a champ.

I get a very distinct Grape aroma with subtle hints of citrus, lots of menthol and old shoe or leather funk.


Fizzy Cola F1 #2
IMG_3438.jpeg
A bit slower than #1 but very stanky all the same. It’s incredible how alike this one is to #1 but just a longer flowering time.

Man anytime anyone mentions eucalyptus it draws me in..I've chased and grown many strains that ppl have mentioned menthol terps and never get them..I fully understand selection but I'm never lucky..If I once again find Vicks.. Eucalyptus or menthol terps I'll retire growing it..I absolutely love it and for the life of me can't find it. Even with the strains that claim it ,it's just been dodging me..Of course if I hated it it would be all thru phenos all the time

I was reading pretzels last post thinking wow what a gorgeous frosty plant -too bad its menthol lol. I do have a long standing hatred for menthol terps though. Ive had it pop up in the garden a couple times over the decades (not even looking for it) and it gets culled, given away, or tossed in the trash. Last time I found it was in "Bubblegummer" by Female Seeds. I wasnt the only one to report at the time how unbelieveably strong of menthol flowers were coming from those beans, I mean like straight vicks vapo rub type shit. They were nice yielders and super fast finishers too. That was probably 8+ years ago so no telling if thats what can still be found but it may be worth the hunt if your looking for it?
 
Looking back through some old grows I realized 5yrs ago this weekend I did my first ever controlled grow (I’d always done the plant it and check it at harvest time outdoors cause my area is known for ppl getting busted) that ended terribly lol. Then 4yrs ago today I got my first real grow tent and set up. And my growing took off.

I some how found this site just by mistake searching the word PhenoHunting because I was researching like a mad man for hours and hours a day on anything and everything cannabis. This site completely changed the game for me. I had an unlimited bank of knowledge from growers at every stage. So here’s a little look from my first plant ever grown indoors to what I have going now.

IMG_4478.jpeg
Above is my first plant I ever grew indoors and the seeds were purchased on DCseedexchange. Little did I know I’d end up meeting the breeder on this site 😂. Above is Copper Orgi S1 originally created by @Amos Otis and I think S1d by CobNut if Im remembering correctly. I grew that plant in some BS soil I got from a store and fed it General Hydroponics 3part.


Below is my current 2x2 tent. I do everything in a 2x2 or seasonally outdoor now with the space constrictions. But here is my over grown jungle of dangly stanky goodness! I’ve got 3x plants and 2x separate strains in here. All being fed House and Garden 2part coco blend.

Both plants above have a very strong sweetness to them but also this chemmy/skunky funk I can’t quite put a name to.

This one smell like pure children’s vitamins and has trichome the whole way to the tips of the fans. I’m expecting great things from this girl. Maybe my first reveg worth girl. I’ve tried in the past but i always had more beans. I don’t got anymore of these so if I love her she might get a spot outside till I can take a clone or two.

I can’t believe it’s been half a decade I’ve been growing now with only a few unplanned breaks here and there. I’ve grown a field at a buddies and multiple outdoor plants at various spots I’ve found but my indoor grows are my prize possessions. My green or purple babies I get to tuck in every night. And tbh without this site I’d of probably given up. The generosity and overall brotherhood here is just amazing. It always keeps me coming back and checking in on my mentors. Even if you didn’t know it most of you who’ve been here since the early days have been vital to my growth. It might not be much but being able to save a few buck, smoke some of the best flower on the market and getting to try creations from other like minded individuals is just awesome in my eyes. Can’t thank you all enough! A special shout out though to @Frimpong @Amos Otis @HydroRed @GthaEnigma @HBZ @BH @Schwaggy P @OldG you guys have help me out countless times whether it be seeds, information, sops you’ve shared, your own techniques that boosted my knowledge and grow or if it was just a chat/comment that put a smile on my face and made me proud of what I was doing. So here’s to 5yrs of growing that amazing plant and 4yrs killing it in the tent 😉
