I started 3 Meltdown yesterday. Been a while since I’ve smoked that, I'm very stoked!

 

[Shane Karmann]

I Meltdown.

I moved the taller plants together on one side of the tent and the shorter plants on the other.side. Before there was chaos Now I can optimize the lights by plant height.
The runty little macaroon gazurple is frosting up and showing that extra leaf mutation they seem to carry. You can see it on the bottom leaf in the picture.

As I raised my phone the light clicked off lol

And...

Last night I pollinated. not sure how successful I was, there was not a lot of pollen. I rubbed them together we'll see if it took.
We have freeze warnings for the next couple of days. I'm not sure if the male plants will survive being outdoors. The frostzilla male is not ripe yet, no pollen. I was really hoping to cross it with its sister. we'll try to keep it going another week or two.

 

[laddyd]

Starting to get a vague whiff of some flower. Slymer has a pleasant citrus smell. I'm going to need a new filter. Staying the course with Maxibloom every other watering.

 

[laddyd]

Super cropped one plant, it was going to be up in the light by morning.
We have land of the Giants on one side and indica flowers on the other side.
Close ups in order The Ugly plant, Slymer, Dancing lime, Freakzilla
And a little frost on Mt Lemmon

Super cropped a couple more tonight. They were kind of leggy, I'm trying to encourage the lower buds a bit. They really like that Maxibloom.

You're killing it. Is Viparspectra still your main light supply? I love mine, even if it's semiretired

 

[laddyd]

My only light supply. A 1500 XS and a 1500 XS Pro

 

[laddyd]

Yes indeedy we've got seedies. The blue cheese is preggers.
The dancing lime male has got some more open flowers. I'm going to dust the gelato 41 again and a couple of lower buds on the kosher kush and all the mutants again.
Annie's kosher kush is a beast.
Seeds
Gelato 41 has a dense structure. Excited about crossing it with dancing lime
looking good in the hood.

 

[laddyd]

Did some more pollinating last night. The weather has been so nice the dancing lime males are flourishing on the patio.
I didn't realize how successful the first go round had been. Blue cheese is loaded with seeds as is the Macaroon x Gazurple mutant.
I dusted the lower branches of the gelato 41, kosher kush and a couple of buds on the Frostzilla mutant. The male frostzilla is a day or two away from opening up some flowers. When it does I will pollinate the female. And that will be it.
I am prepared if they shut down seed sales.

Yea I'd say so!

 

[laddyd]

They REALLY like the Maxibloom. I'm going to have to do some defoliation or no one's getting any light.
Y'all behave in there. Don't make me bring the scissors.

I gotta say one of your best runs. Really happy plants,some giant fans leaves on Kush maybe.

 

[laddyd]

I pollinated the Freakzilla and gave Gelato 41 some more Dancing Lime pollen. This time I saw little puffs. We're good.
The Freakzilla male is a healthy little mutant. It shows the extra leaf, and 3 leaf nodes. Plus whatever the hell it was doing at the beginning.
Time for it to do it's thing.

 

[laddyd]

Here's a picture of a Dancing lime and the Macaroon x Gazurple.
The MG is loaded with seeds but I am such a poor photographer you can't see them in the picture.
And finally a couple of group shots. I moved them around a bit and raised the lights. I think they are just about done stretching.

 

[laddyd]

We tried bottom watering tonight. They appeared to suck it right up. We have a few pictures.
First is Slymer.
Then Freakzilla
Annie's Kosher Kush, the long thin leaved pheno
As promised, seeds
Golf at the local muni today
