Are any (all) of these plants perennials or annuals? Can they be propagated? Can you propagate by spocing/grafting? Are hybrid seeds plantable and are they as effective (potent) as the parent stock? What does the market for seeds and young plants look like out there? Sorry for so many questions but I am fascinated by your thread. (I like to grow things) Too many questions, try google. A simple search will answer every question and then some. Sounds like you need some more homework anyways when it comes to growing the herb. Some of the questions you ask would require borderline incriminatory answers, and you're a Pats fan.......so fuck you. |

Looking forward to that Blue Dream Blue Dream is good... It has nothing on the pineapple wreck tho Ever try grape cookies? My neighbor grows it indoors 100% organically and doesn't even use ferts. He probably puts damn near a grand in his soil for only six plants and the results are incredible. I can't even photograph it because the tris are all over the buds, that it reflects the light like taking a picture of the sun. Crazy good and nice, clean smoke. Never tried any of the pineapples because they're not around my parts and I mostly prefer sativas or dominant sativa hybrids, but I always make my exception for the grape cookies.  |

What does the market for seeds and young plants look like out there? Sorry for so many questions but I am fascinated by your thread. (I like to grow things) ================================================= Pot is not an annual or perennial, they can and are propagated but that process is unknown to me. Seeds are definitely plantable hybrid or otherwise, There is a market for seeds and they often found in the $10 plus a seed range. Traditionally the growers I know would find a strain or two they like and then take a cutting of the strain before it goes into flower to provide a "mother" plant, put it under a grow light for 18 hours a day till February or so and then take cuttings from the mother to provide the starts for the new season. Locally I can by 6" tall cuttings at many dispensaries for $20 a piece, it's legal here. The market for seeds is intriguing, but you would need to feminize your seeds for the market to insure folks don't end up with a male plant. Time for an update with pictures, but it's too dark now for pictures, all plants now are in the budding stage with the stressed out Blue Kush leading the pack as far as most far along and the healthiest looking one Pineapple the farthest behind but coming on strong in the last week, Blue dream is by far the biggest and appears will also give the most yield. It may be that I will soon have a shit load of dope, but I am a novice and I would guess have 3 to 4 weeks to go and as we enter the rainy season soon, mold could kill it all before it is fully mature, and as a novice I could fuck this all up some how. The experience to date has been more fun then I expected, no complaints from the neighbors at all, not much of an odor as yet to speak of. Total invested is about $160 (bought some Alaska Fish Fertilizer "Bloom")..................... I feel slightly dirty, like I am growing moonshine. |

I'm glad you answered in a respectable manner as I've been in a pissy mood all day and apologize for being a dick. I mentioned earlier that you will be taking these plants to the frost date so just keep monitoring your forecast. It's better too pull them early rather than late. I'm sure we can work around any mold but you have to be vigilant and monitor the plants on a daily basis at the least.....hell, you've come this far. Don't use the Alaska Fish Fertilizer now, that's something you use in May not September. Just let them finish on their own and they will stink within the last couple of weeks. Probably not a problem in your case because it is small scale and outdoors but something to think of. If I was your neighbor I'd recognize it and although it's legal it always attaches that undeserved stigma. Looking forward to some pics and just remember they normally go fast at the end. |

Sounds good....I automatically thought it was 6-1-1 because that is all I've ever encountered with the Alaska brand. I've never heard of the stuff or seen it anywhere local. Can you provide a link, sounds interesting for my veggies. |

Rained today for the first time in 6 or 8 weeks. From left to right, Blue Dream, Pineapple Train Wreck, Blue Kush, Agent Orange, and a Seedling I call Wonder Woman in the green planter. All are in the bud stage.  Blue Dream  Blue Kush  Close up of Blue Kush  Agent Orange   Pineapple  And a close up.  |

You did a fantastic job on the training, props....I'm guessing you'll yield approximately 30-50% more weight because of it. The plants look great but they still have a long way to go, at least 3 weeks to a month until some can be harvested.
When is your average first frost? They'll start stinking in about 2-3 weeks and should really take off from there and thicken.
I think that 0-10-10 will pay huge dividends in the long run and I'll end up ordering some for my veggies. It's very cheap but I'm still skeptical about how they can omit nitrogen completely.

If you can get them too finish off before your first frost I'd estimate over a pound of finished flower. Not too shabby for a beginner with only a few plants.  |
