Happy Holidays fellow MPers!:ciao:
Zipflipper! This one's for YOU! I've been getting excited about a plant I've got growing and she's finally starting to s-l-o-w-l-y turn the corner and looking more like the real deal every day. I bought some amazingly potent Mex Brown Schwag last spring before my grow room was yielding. It was the last sack I spent money on since too... But this weed had a Thai taste, very similar to loose Cali grown Thai bud I had access to for many years in the late 70's and early 80's and then it was gone... poof! Thanks Ronald Reagan!:rant:
Anyhoo... This scwag wasn't very seedy at all, it was very rich with a sweet pungent Thai spicy taste and when I looked at it the buds were covered in amber trichs. I thought this must have been some amazing bud and still was despite being abused at harvest, having no proper cure and then subjected to compression for storage and export. I poked away about 20 or so of those beans and this fall I popped 4 of them off, getting only one female. Even though she came from bagseed, one thing I feel she has going for her is the fact that the plant the seeds came off of was more than likely grown outdoors in Mexico and was naturally pollenated by hopefully a male plant. But I'm watching like a hawk for nanners... :hubba:
Here are some pic's of my "Thai" bagseed plant. There are some early pics starting about a 2 and a half to 3 weeks into 12/12 and the more recent pic's are from a few days ago. She's at about week 8 of 12/12. I'm guessing she'll maybe have something finished up around New Year's or so... Only time will tell! She's been a bit of a challenge to figure out. She's in a 3 gal pot with a mixture of Subcool Supersoil cut 50% in the bottom of the pot with a 75/25 mix of FFOF and Light Warrior. She seems to like frequent feeding but very light. She's been growing under my 1K HPS although I put her under my T5 to take a few pic's...
I'll update with some more pics as she gets closer to harvest...
Happy Growing!
