Quick shot of how things have progressed. Some of these were 3x stretchers. I've raised the lights, but I'm going to have to super crop a few. All have been lollipopped, clones taken, IPM sprayed and 2nd trellis added.
Day 5 of flower. Girls were selected for structure and vigor, topped and flipped. Started with 96. Narrowed to 35. I will further narrow-down the field between now and the end of week 2. A minimum of 2 cuttings will be taken of each. Cuttings will be culled as selections are narrowed. By taking the cutting in week 2 of flower, they will stall as they revert to a vegetative stage and buy me some additional time to eliminate selections by the end of flower. Though selections have been made, most will not be kept. I'm looking for something that checks every box. I will not end up with a selection from each cultivar.
Platinum LCG
Jokerz Gelato
Trop cherry x Jealousy
Gucciberry
S.S. Haze x Jealousy
Roughly 25 of each. All cataloged, topped and transplanted. 1 week veg then flipping. 2 weeks after, cuttings
Bucking and trimming. This one is Platinum Ice
Some frosty pheno shots from the main room, platinum ice, heisenbeans.
A couple of days until trim jail. Just thought you guys might like to see what they're looking like. Drying around 60 degrees and 55% humidity. Trying to keep .6 -.8 VPD. Thanks for the view. Upvotes are always appreciated

These girls are blowing up. I just posted them 3 days ago and the stretch is awesome. Last 2 are previous post. Moved them over to the 4x4 under the 1000w. (Only on 25%). Anyway.....threw the 3 phenos I liked best from my photo run in to try for a re-veg. Updates later
Day 50F, Heisenbeans. Didn't take a cut, sadly. Now I'm hoping she will re-veg.
Same cut of Platinum Ice from the 1st run I did last year. Ran in 2 different environments: 1st 4 pics are a 5x5 and last 4 are the 8 light room. This cut has very tight, compact, buds with notable frost. Like fuzzy white dots everywhere, the buds really stand-out. Her leaves fold more than her sisters and that plum color the leaves get almost hits red at a glance by comparison. I didn't know what to expect running several in a 5x5 and this lone girl tossed-in with the rest in the 8 light room. I will say the 5x5 runs around 78 where my main room is 74. The light distance was the same. I did drop night time temps a couple of nights in the main room. Anyway. Thought you guys might like to take a look. Thanks for any upvotes!
I'll be taking a few shots of randoms from each cultivar daily. I have to keep from developing amber as the entire harvest is being sold as THCA, so I can't have degradation from THCA into THC.
So, last year I took a bunch of Platinum Ice clones and..... neglected them. They ended up becoming 3ft tall lanky shrubs. I put 7 in a 5x5 and spread them all over the tent. Literally branches over branches woven through-out. I defoliated and pulled POUNDS of shoots off. Flipped it and this is the result....a thousand gumballs. I added a pick from like week 2 of flower during the stretch. You can see how far up I had to lollipop them. I just had too many other cultivars. I was running and left them way too long
Per request: 12 pack. 2 rows of 6. Middle and right of the table. 4 week veg
Bud formation is a bit different from pheno to pheno
These little guys passed-out after feasting in these basil blossoms, lol
