I think 206 said out of his entire lot he only had a few duds. So far I'm 6/6 so no complaints in that department.
Yeah I actually had 14/15 pop, these are the best freebies ever!
Is that LA Conf stinking yet?

no smell at all. The buds have just started coming in though. I think they're just at the two week mark.

Man my entire basement reeks from my little scrog. I've never had a problem w/ smell before but damn, and they don't even have pistils forming yet. I may need to think about adding at least a bunch of aquarium activated carbon filters since I have a bunch from my aquarium.
It will at least help. I don't want the main floor stinking 24/7...

heh, well, I hope I end up in the same boat. I'd really love to end up with a really skunky strain. It's one of my favorite tastes/odors in the cannabis world and I've never grown a strain that just screamed skunk.
BTW, small update, I'm officially a blind person. The second female, which I originally marked as a male, well was actually a male. Axed that fucker down and now have to say out of three plants only one girl. Better then none! Apparently what I though was the formation of pistils in the buds were actually razor thin leaf tips. The clone showed the nuts quite clearly today. Went and checked the plant in the veg cab, and sure enough, the preflowers finally matured enough to show male (they were too small to tell before for my eyes).
The upside is that now I'll have even more room in my veg cabinet for a little while

I would if the plant wasn't lying in the bottom of my "disposalize" pile.

It's super super Indica. I had to trim a big pile of leaves from this crop because literally NO light was getting past the canopy, no matter how strong the light is...
The fingers are up to 2.5" wide... They almost feel velvety on the few that are heavier Bubba. I got one that is almost pure Skunk, it's got hybrid looking leaves, and almost a blue hue to the vegetation. Very unique. It's actually my favorite plant...
but the pollen I harvested was from the Heaviest Bubba looking plant I had. The leaves were nearly furry. It was Awesome and the fastest growing plant in the pack. I'm excited to use him for breeding...

Day 13 Flowering
There's a few pics of the clone that's been flowering these past couple of weeks. She's starting to green up nice, gave her 1 tsp FN bloom plus 1/4 tsp of Snow Storm tonight. She should be back to a nice healthy green by next week. Don't think she'll get much taller then this so the transplant may have been overkill lol. I think I'll have to plan for around a 2 week veg time to get them the height I want if I take smaller cuttings.
Anyways, things are rolling along pretty smoothly with this one. I'll have to take some more cuttings tomorrow to make up for the two that are male.

I can now say.... a little!
Caught a faint whiff of skunk when I sniffed the plant tonight. Definitely put a smile on my face. Fed last night at 1 tsp + a little extra / gal. of FN bloom. Oh and I tossed in a tsp of thrive alive to hopefully encourage a bit more root growth.
The mom is looking much better, think she was suffering from a slight P deficiency so I added in a tsp of the FN bloom along with the grow. All of the affected leaves are looking much better today.
Upgraded setup is coming in tomorrow, went to the hydro shop on Saturday but they closed for the weekend due to valentines day (lame). I'm picking up a 6" 400 cfm fan, PH and TDS pen, liquid and dry kool bloom, and a couple of light pulleys for the veg cab. I'll be moving the 4" fan I have as my exhaust to my intake side, and I dunno what I'll do with the squirrel cage. It's on its last legs so I'll probably just toss it. I'll snap some pics once its setup.

Ok so I lied Here's some pics of the LA mom. You can see some of the damage the deficiency did. But she healed up super quick and is looking great minus those few fans.

Day 20
Fed 1 tsp FN Bloom + 2 tsp liquid Kool Bloom / Gallon of water. PPM 1030 Ph at 5.8. Leaves are greening up very nicely now, hopefully the buds will begin getting bigger soon. Other then that not much to report, chugging along really nicely now. Can't to see the results of the kool bloom, been wanting to try it for a long while now.
Here's the kushberry seedlings at day 10. The mutant of the bunch is now sporting multi colored blades now. Don't think it will make it, but I'm keeping it around for the hell of it. They were fed with a 1/4 tsp of FN Grow + 1 tsp thrive alive two nights ago. PPM was 330 and Ph was 5.8.

Looking good man is what does PPM stand for? Is that something I need to be concerned about?

Parts Per Million. Well, you're always concerned about the PPM. It's the strength of your solution. You can grow just fine without ever really checking the PPM of your solution if you just pay attention to what you're doing. I've just been wanting a meter to know exactly how strong I was feeding my plants. Hopefully it will help me dial in on the right levels for my grows.
