Thank you Brotato Chip.
Runty survived,as do most of my runts and mutants,if they pull out of it during veg and are ready by the time I'm ready to flower they get a shot.
Being that these gals were popped as part of a tester pack and were virtually flowered from seed,Runty was definitely gonna be in it for the long haul as long as she was healthy.
That and I hate culling plants...lol. Shit,I just got used to knocking off healthy males with no discrimination or second thought. I wanna be a chucker someday!
If she weren't mine, once Runty started stretch and then bud-set,I would've just assumed she was started a week to 10 days after the other two,not with them.
She has totally dominated the others as far as growth and vigor.Lemon cake eh?
I'll have to revisit her smells,I try wash my hands or clean them with hand sanitizer when doing multiple stem rubs handling different plants while in the process,sometimes it doesn't always work...eh I'm a stoner.
I had a Bubba Kush runt.Took eons to veg.Hardly any stigma during flower, minimal stretch,freaked me thee fuck out.Small dense buds,purple black leaves.8-9 week finish. Coffee,earthy Kush nose that carried over into to taste.Potent.The bean was a gift from my brother.I saw his BK run and asked for another bean.Culled all the clones of runty BK.Ugh, I feel like barfing just thinking about it makes me sick of myself.
Anyhow, ran the other bean,had more veg vigor,perfect golf ball stigmas,BK aroma,bigger nugs and colas and tasted quite good with a very good high.
Nowhere near my Runty BK tho. The BK I posted in one of the POTM contests is the second bean I speak of.
I've been meaning to ask you this,how do you go about reveg'ing your F&D gals,if you do?
Usually,I keep them in the pots they were flowered in,in my soiless mix.
Being that this is my first F&D run,I never had to deal with F&D rootballs.I'm expecting the stones to be totally encapsulated by the roots and I should be able to pull it out whole.I may shave off the long roots down to the square and toss it into a fabric pot with my soiless media...eh,should work.
Edit* my point was.RUN A RUNT!!!Lol,runts and mutants can and will surprise you in the end product most times.That is if you have the time,patience and space to run them.
I can certainly respect those that those that don't.
