Blazholic's TGA Buffet

[Blazaholic]

This is gonna be a subcool/TGA seeds grow.
I'm veggin under 4 foot flouros in a modified closet, whith a stealth panel door covering it.
I popped a whole lotta beans this year.
5 packs of beans back in march of 06.
Then 10 more packs only 2 weeks later. Bad move on my part. To anxious.
The first five packs were...
Black Cherry
DannyboyBX
DPD
Connie
Jillybean
and for some reason, I only had 9 dannyboybx in the pack.
No biggie.
That just means room for one more seed in the tray.
So i picked the biggest JTR seed outta the resin mix.

I started these seeds in march 06.
These are some of the better pictures
They are in 32 oz cups (quarter gallon)
<---Black Cherry at 2 weeks
<---Black Cherry at 3 weeks
<---Connie at 2 weeks
<---DPD at 4 weeks

Took clones within days of the last 2 pictures.

The Plants continued to grow. I didnt get fertilizer until about 6 weeks veg. Im using Pure Blend Pro for soil. They responded immediately with fast growth over the next few weeks. I mean they took off.
They started showing preflowers after 8 weeks. The dannyboybx showed first. Some fat pistils too. The Jillybeans I noticed showed sex last outta the bunch.

At this point i could really smell different flavors from just a stem rub.
Very exciting for me at that point. Can almost taste it.

While most of them started to show sex in the next few weeks, I got some uninvited guests.
Spider mites--->Spider mites
That explains all that.
So I ended up cutting down most of the mothers as they were getting so big and also infested with mites. They were growing on my bed next to the cab. They were gettin too large for the cab. The clones took the mommas place in the cab, which also has central a/c routed to it. Nice and cozy.

speaking of clones..Let's see what they look like today,
Here we are at nearly 4 months veg on these clones.
Dannyboybx
I ended up with 3 females from the 7 that came up outta 9 beans .
I'm a rookie bean popper if ya couldnt tell already.
These are the clones.
<----S2 ( the S is in reference to seed # outta the pack and also the lower numbers were the first to come up as seeds)

<----S4

<----S7

I didn't want to let them go nowhere near this long, but there was some bumps along the way. No worries as I do have a low ceiling, but I'm still into bondage, so these girls gonna get bent over. I usually grow bushes that have been topped at least twice. Not this time. They range in hieght from 18 to 24 inches. S4, the mother, had the nicest branching that seemed to wanna go on forever, but not too wide. Unfortunately, I had to cut it down (mites) and didnt take a pic of it first. I'm hoping for that one to just keep on budding in a long cola. S2 was simular.
Let's even things out with a pic of the JTR clone, the seed that filled the empty spot in the tray.

This pic doesnt really show how dark this one really is. The leaves are very dark green and the stem is purple now. Dont know if that's a bad thing. Seems to be very happy tho.

Well that's all for today.
I apologize for such a long post.
Making up for lost time.

Bondage and flowering soon to come.
