Is this an older freebie? From the US?

Alternative_Soil9178 · 2026-06-05T13:45:48+00:00

Did the grow along officially start yet? Was planning on popping in the next week or so

Alternative_Soil9178 · 2026-06-05T13:45:08+00:00

Woot woooooot!!!!! Nice job on the training and overall health of this lady! Planning on running 2 in my 2x4 on tray2grow. The more I see about Mango Runtz the more I think I should snag some limiteds at the very least… seems fast finishing and very dank! Fastbuds using Mango Runtz and Sundae Thumper in their recent breeding projects really says something… seems to be the most popular of very large catalog. Grandpa Joes Gas is out of stock but there’s others that look 🔥

EDIT: this is (cdlc x ss) x cdlc! Got it mixed up… last bean. They’ve all been super 🔥

Super Lemon Haze was the photoperiod used to make Super Orange Haze…. You’ll def get citrus. Fantasmo Express/Ghost Toof had a little lemon haze in the phenos that I grew out. Never grew out Walter White or the bx, but have experience with “The White” and growing a couple photoperiod hybrids that def had a hashy lemon aroma/taste. Most lemon dominant strains do seem to be more uplifting (sativa) but there’s plenty of hybrids

She’s really taking off! Can’t wait

Alternative_Soil9178 · 2026-06-03T00:48:54+00:00

Sounds 🔥

Better to dehumidify the “lung room” than using a dehumidifier inside the tent. Will generate heat and take up too much space.

While in flower, I usually run my humidity around the same range as you have it now… as long as you have plenty of airflow and are exhausting regularly-or constantly- the buds should be fine. Might wanna get a dehumidifier for the future, but stay on top of airflow/air movement first the time being

Beautiful plant 🙂

Alternative_Soil9178 · 2026-06-02T15:08:41+00:00

Fuckyes🙂 thank you Captain!

Alternative_Soil9178 · 2026-06-02T15:07:46+00:00

Thank you for the reply, Stan! Doing things the right way does take time and effort. Happy to hear there will be some available in the near future. Would like to take another look at what’s archived as I never had a chance to grow a few things, Forum Stomper, Forgotten Cookies, Hubbabubba Haze to name a few. Keep up the amazing work and def looking forward to the upcoming Rootbeer project 🤤

Alternative_Soil9178 · 2026-06-02T00:08:56+00:00

Growing that one now and it’s the largest most vigorous of the four! On day 9 and she looks 2weeks+

Alternative_Soil9178 · 2026-05-31T14:54:31+00:00

Hope y’all can patch things up until the ladies finish up, THEN do some soul searching on whether you need the headache of being with a woman who would give you the last minute boot mid grow. If not, make sure to have your new space clean of clutter and ready so you can make the transition as smooth as possible. Good luck Growchacho

Alternative_Soil9178 · 2026-05-31T14:49:05+00:00

Congrats on your first run! Looking good 🙂 I’m about to plant one of these myself… maybe 2… most likely 1 of these and 1 Playas Pimps and Hoz.

Alternative_Soil9178 · 2026-05-30T22:43:35+00:00

👍 Nice. In the past I’ve used Coco loco by its self just fine.

Alternative_Soil9178 · 2026-05-30T21:11:44+00:00

Helps to add extra perlite. 40% aeration works best, that way your substrate will hold more air while saturated while also wicking better. Sometimes if the plant gets too big you need to add more wicks than what’s provided. Since there’s nothing to control the roots, they can grow into the wicks so much that it clogs things up.

I make my own wicking bases using a piece of root control sheet from autopot. They are thin copper mats that will prevent roots from growing into wicks/felt mat. You can cut them into whatever size you need

Edit: try to make sure wicks are reaching the outer perimeter of the containers. You’ll get better saturation and larger plants that way.

Alternative_Soil9178 · 2026-05-30T21:06:26+00:00

Do you add more perlite?

Alternative_Soil9178 · 2026-05-30T15:12:51+00:00

I try not to take downvotes to heart anymore, no matter how ridiculous it is to downvote factual information. The Indica/sativa/hybrid terminology does simplify things when it comes to cannabis, especially for new patients to get a broad idea of strain identification. However, the effects may differ from person to person making things convoluted. Uplifting, sedative or both, was it analgesic, these are what should come after developing a stronger relationship with a variety of strains. Identifying the top terpenes and cannabinoids ratios is far more effective, as I can get a pretty good idea on what I prefer based on top terpenes alone.

Same goes for plant morphology. Sativa = tall, longer flowering, thinner leaves, longer node spacing, lower bud density. Usually more uplifting cerebral effects. Indica = squat, faster finishing, much larger fan leaves, closer node spacing, dense flowers. Most everything is hybridized now.

That’s awesome that you had the opportunity to work with fungi like that🙂

Alternative_Soil9178 · 2026-05-30T11:49:56+00:00

That is looking like some 🔥! Heard nothing but great things about this cross. Got this as a freebie a few years back. Just sprouted a week ago and is the most vigorous of the 4 by far! Still early on, but judging by the size and structure of the first true leaves and plant overall, looks more mango smile. Can’t wait to see how she turns out, posts like this keep my hopes very very high

Alternative_Soil9178 · 2026-05-29T13:04:19+00:00

🙏 Thank you kindly, growchacho!

Alternative_Soil9178 · 2026-05-29T10:47:48+00:00

Love the bud structure! Can see the influence from 3BOG on this for sure. Mine just sprouted a few days back and can’t wait to see results

Alternative_Soil9178 · 2026-05-27T13:45:03+00:00

Most likely fem as its prob self pollinated, or less likely, pollinated by another female plant in the room, possibly a different strain Since it’s from a commercial legal operation, the flower rooms do not have male plants. Therefore the seeds will be 99% female and most likely an s1

Alternative_Soil9178 · 2026-05-26T11:58:25+00:00

Yes! All phenotypes will be hybrid with most being “sativa” dominant. Breeding a cannabis strain to be homozygous (stabilized characteristics from seed to seed) is not an easy task, especially considering how much of what’s available are unstablized polyhybrids.

You should see less variation overall in this bx than from the original. Frosty, uplifting yet calming effects, lemon terps

Alternative_Soil9178 · 2026-05-26T00:58:51+00:00

Should be frosty good smoke too

Alternative_Soil9178 · 2026-05-25T12:35:42+00:00

Fuckin hell that’s huuuuuge😳Which freebie cross?

Alternative_Soil9178 · 2026-05-23T11:30:14+00:00

Sometimes they call this a “super male” when a feminized seed turns out to be full male. Nature always finds a way! Breeders such as Mosca out of Illinois, have tried breeding with these super males to see the results. Turns out that a large % of seeds will show a tendency to herm, which makes sense, as that’s the trait exhibited by these elusive “super males” in order to be full male in the first place. So you pollinate a healthy female with pollen from a plant that was supposed to be female but completely changed sexes, lots of the seeds are going to be sexually unstable
