The Official Cannabis Growers Thread 22
#25131101 - 04/11/18 02:54 PM (5 years, 9 months ago) |

Do we have an "official" cannabis growers thread on the shroomery?
I don't even know if there's more than just few folks on the shroomery that grow the herb...?...If there's at least a few of us, though, perhaps we can use this thread to chit chat about our plants and our grow. If not, then I'll probably just let the thread die and make my own grow journal and separate threads for my occasional random questions.
This is going to be my first time growing the plant (I've been waiting for this moment for sooo long lol), so I might have some basic & newb questions as the grow progresses.
I'm planning on growing at least 4 plants (outdoors), no more than 6.
30 gallon pots. I'm probably going with some fabric pots.
I plan on building a basic "hoop" structure over the plants so I can hang some shade cloth. I won't have the plants under the shade cloth every day, just during some of our super intense summer days. And if we get any late summer/early fall rains they'll be sheltered from the rain.
I'm about to germinate some seeds within the next week or so. Depending how many of those pop open, I might also grab a clone or two from someone local/craigslist.

 Sweet Seeds - Red Poison Auto Flower day 67.
One last good soak and chopping tonight. Maybe tomorrow. Ran this one under the veg light. Not enough umff for flowering. Compared to the ISL these buds are larf. Far more spindley than the last time I ran some. It's capable of putting out nice chunks under good lighting though. Same live soil. Water only. Chemy Cinnamon Red Hots aroma just like last time.

So the nug shots are apple cider kush (bottom 2) & Tatooine donut #1 (top 2) The 2 best plants this run.
The sprouts are doing good. The red runtz broke the tip of its taproot. Just very tiny piece of the tip. So it started to rot a little and now it seems the red runtz is looking better. I hoped it would pull thru, cause I was about to start another one. The quikz is couple days from the other ones because I had to replace the 1st seed.

Selfed it self maybe. Maybe there was one or two bananas that was inside the bud.
Here is my gift to my brother. Got the job finished. You guys like?

It's my own crossings. Plus the LCxCN bx.
He should love this gift. Even if he don't grow them out, it's a pretty thing to look at. I'm happy and proud of these.

My first cannabis grow EVER.
Thanks a lot to Nichrome and The Tao for helping keeping it simple - unfortunately if I couldn't do everything they advised due to my growing constraints.
And a massive thanks to Derrayld for holding my hand through the flowering, harvesting, trimming and now curing phase.
Thanks guys

Fiiiinally got some pics uploaded lol...
I always lag on posting pics, pretty much only ever do so after my grow has been harvested and finished entirely.
"MAC1"....It was my smallest plant. Tons of oily resin though, the flowers are primo. Unique aroma, kinda floral and yeasty/bread-like, musty yet mildly sweet. It has a really nice uplifting/smooth high, not too heavy/sedating for me, not quite energetic but it gets my head space zingin', good day smoke. One of the nicest highs I've had in a while, I really enjoy MAC and will grow it again and will be on the look for some MAC crosses my next time around. I really like the essence/aroma it has and the high, and the amount of resin is pretty ridiculous.



"Wedding Cake"....This clone was given to me for free as "Wedding Cake". I got a clone of WC from the same dude last year and it had somewhat different characteristics compared to the "WC" I grew this time around. This "WC" in the pics doesn't have as much of the classic creamy/buttery/vanilla "cake" aroma that I associate with "cake" strains, it also didn't turn nearly as purple as the WC I grew last year...It was still a very dank plant with a lot of large flowers complteley frosted in resin. The aroma was a mild gassy/chem with some slight sweet floral notes, not a very complex or super loud aroma. Not a lot of flavor...Lots of resin, good potency, and a nice balanced high though.


These next two are the WC during early flowering, in the morning after some rain showers passed by...pics can't do justice to how vibrant the flowers/resin was in the morning sunshine, it was poppin'...


"Kush Cake" (Wedding Cake X Animal Mints)....Now this plant has a lot more of the classic "cake" aroma/characteristic going on that I am familiar with. The cake aroma/character is very distinct, but it also has a lot of classic "kush" notes/aroma going on. To me the essence of this strain is a perfect blend of cake, kush, and cookies, I can totally smell and taste its heritage/parents....Gassy race fuel/acetone, sweet vanilla cream, earthy kush, flowers/floral incense, skunk/dank...Just a straight up a classic "sweet kush" aroma...When I was harvesting this plant the resin was so damn "loud" and gassy/pungent smelling, it straight up smelled like the exhaust from a top fuel engine (for anyone that's been to drag races/smelled exhaust from nitromethane lol), or like high octane race fuel/gasoline/acetone, it reminded me of being at the race track lol.
After drying/curing the aroma become more rich/complex but it is still pretty damn gassy and skunky. This is the most flavorful herb I've ever grown too, it actually coats my mouth with flavor and the flavor persists for a while when smoking a joint. The smoke is thick/dense/expansive and oily (my lips and tongue become sticky from a single bong rip lol), but it is ultra smooth, like I exhale massive thick/white clouds of oily smoke but the toke is buttery smooth. The high starts off with a little "perk"/uplifting, slightly cerebral/jovial, but ultimately is a relaxing/mellow/somatic type high. Doesn't make my head too cloudy though, doesn't totally "wreck" me if I smoke it during the day.






Ice Cream Cake....I had to pull it a bit early because I was seeing signs of mites along the lower portion of the plant and didn't want em' to spread into the tops. Really wish I could have let it go a bit longer. This plant turned beautiful colors towards the end. It's aroma had a note upfront that reminded me of a sour-cherry slushy/icee, followed by a creamy/milky floral essence with a touch of gas. For a little while the fresh resin on the plant reminded me very much of the strain "Forbidden Fruit".....I kinda goofed up the dry/cure on this plant, let it sit out and dry out for too long before trimming/jarring...The dry flowers have a really nice aesthetic tho, swollen exposed calyxs with splashes of dark purple contrasted with bright white frosting of resin. It has a nice mellow high. Starts off a bit uplifting but mellows up quickly into a nice stone.
Beautiful plant though!...It's a popular strain but I wouldn't mind growing it again and trying to grow it better, I really like the aroma it has.







"Granimals X ?"....This plant was grown from a seed that I found in some "Granimals" that I grew last year (Granimals = Grape Pie X Animal Cookies). The aroma it has is pretty similar to the Granimals it came from, tho a little less of the cookie/spice essence....Has sweet & tart & sour notes of grapes juice & berries, but also some pine and some slight "spice"...I looove the aroma it has, and it has some good pronounced flavor too (probably the 2nd most flavorful plant I grew this year). It has a flavor that is super nostalgic for me (brings me back to some herb I used to smoke in my early days)....The high though, something about the buzz/high I'm not a fan of. It kinda has an "edge" to it and makes me a bit scatter-brained feeling where I'm kinda stimulated and don't know what to do and can't think straight. Just a nervous/anxious type of energy to it...which is unfortunate becuase I love the aroma & flavor so much.

"Vanilla Frosting X ?"....Grown from a seed that I found in some "Vanilla Frosting" (Humboldt OG X Gelato) that I grew last year....While it was growing the flowers had an aroma that was somewhat similar to the VF I grew last year. A gassy sweet/vanilla (different from wedding cake tho) essence, at one point the flowers kinda reminded me of root-beer/sassafras...I goofed up the dry/cure on this plant too. Let it dry out a little too much, it lost a lot of it's essence/aroma. The buds are pretty resinous though and look good. It feels like some potent smoke though, nice mellow/balanced high. Just doesn't have much "character" as far as aroma/flavor/high goes.

Some pics from the very last night of harvesting, mostly the top colas from Kush-Cake....



I hang/dry in my closet lol (I love marinating in the dank smells when I sleep at night lol)...I've got like 7 or 8 lines of twine in there, a small fan keeping air circulating through, I keep my bedroom window open most of the day/night...Temps were around 60 to 65 for the most part while drying, got up to 68 a few times. I had some donky dick colas hanging up in there this year lol.

I thought the secret was flora micro so it's so full of chelated heavy metals that a half lb fits in a half gallon jar to the shoulders. Oh wait, flora micro has pgr's too....
Big commercial grows are crap. It's the self taught mom and pop growers that have the real goods.

Pretty cool picture. Apparently butterfly wings are made up of tiny scales, and this is one scale stuck to a trichome.
