Hey everyone!
lol, stealth update!! I sneak in and sneak out again....lol....
koda: you always find the cutest fly gifs, I'm almost glad you can't see the ridiculous cheesey grin I get on my face
it's like that bit not quite as green!! Hope you're well sweety!
Gamey: Argh!! That sucks you lost your mum, I've been very lucky so far *touches wood then giggles....I hope you find yourself another keeper, I must admit the AK99 I've kept for the past 4 years wasn't one I meant to keep, she was just the main plant until I germed more AK99 seeds, but somehow I never got around to it.....been slacking off a bit since I got into all this cloning, I needs to go back to my seedwhoring roots!
Speaking of which, I have 3 new strains on the grow just now.....no idea how they will turn out....so, without further ado I shall introduce my three muskaplants!
First, this is Afghan, I've had these seeds for something like 5-6 years, and I had a few left and wanted to flower them out....I only got 1 to germ, and here it is....looks healthy as feck so it's probably male:
Now, you may be thinking, what's the deal with the hat, am I starting some kind of weird trend? lol, well, truth is, I've tried lst'ing this plant to get me a bit of side growth that I can cut off and use as a clone, so I can flower this and see whether its male/female/keeper....problem is this fluoro light is really shit, I so miss my 250w MH, it takes forever and a day with a fluro to produce the kind of sidegrowth you can acheive much faster with a MH light, so, in desperation/silliness I decided to limit the amount of light available to the main germinal centre with a plant pot, the idea being that the plant would then concentrate most of it's growth into the sidebranches from this point on. Whether it'll work or not I have no idea but it will be fun to find out!
Next, is the lanky but loveable white rhino:
Another con of the fluoro is that plants like to streeeeettttcchhh more and it's a total pain in the bum, I do have an oscillating fan on these guys but when it's this lanky all they do is fall over....not to worry once it's a bit bigger I will repot nice and deep to counter the long stem.
This plant is just plain weird. Would you believe me if I told you this guy is about 2 weeks older than the white rhino?? It's growing incredibly slow, and has decided it wants to be a bonsai plant. Cute, but quite probably retarded. I still love it though. Anyway, I forgot to mention, this is a Citral. I got these seeds in Amsterdam in 2005, I have had nothing but hermies and males and one really low-yielding, and below average female, so, I don't expect this one to be any different, but we shall see how it grows:

Okay, that's the new brood, these are some pics of my current clones. This is skunk #1:
This is SSHxBB. In a plastic bottle because I'm supposed to be sending her home, I just haven't done it as usual :/

Ak99, this is the 17th generation of clones (I do successive cloning rather than keep a mother plant, been experimenting on genetic degradation for 4 years now, and I can tell you this plant hasn't degraded one bit)

Now, I remember something about a pic limit so I'm going to carry on in another post!!
