Xerces Brazil-1 Project

[Xerces]

Today some of the fruits opened their veil, they are growing downwards, just like someone mentioned in other Brasil thread. They are thin and tall, and a little small in comparison with other strains.

I will have pics tomorrow.

Very nice, big X! You should be proud.

[Xerces]

Sure I am! Objective Accomplished. Now to take some -rather small- prints.

I did however expected a higher yield. But well, it was my first time and 2 cakes didn't pin at all.

You think all those small shrooms are enough for an average dose, or should I wait for the second casing to fruit?

[dial8]

Well, you need to weigh em dry. If they are around 2 grams that would be enough for me. If you weigh em fresh then about 20 grams will suffice.

[Xerces]

I still have to get that damn scale

[dial8]

Haha. Well pick em and set them next to something and take another pic so I can tell how big they are. Myabe I can give you good advice by looking at them that way.

[Xerces]

compared to regular size rolling paper

[dial8]

If you let em grow a bit more you should have enough I am guessing.

looking good, it seems like they could have benefited from a single and stable light source, or maybe darkening the side walls, anyways still great!!

[Xerces]

thanks a lot for all the congratulations ^_^
i am now officially graduated as a grower!

the lid was solid, and the rest transparent, and i kept them always by the window, in the floor

you have any idea why they curled downwards? co2 problem?


my next strain will be koh samui

if you want them to grow straight upwards, there should be one light source coming from the top only.
if you keep them in a dark closet with a light on top there's no need to darken the sides, or use an all dark container with a light inside the lid.
just make sure the light always comes from the same direction.
putting the tub by the window probably gave many different light positions and all coming from the sides because you said the lid was dark, that's why they grew in all directions. i don't recomend using foil as a darkening method because it will refelect light and cause pins to pop up where you don't wnat them. anyways you still achieved success!!

congratulations Xerces! well done!

[Xerces]

you cheer me up so much I don't even mind the low yield, They are just Gorgeous!

Thanks a lot for all your support through this. And thanks again to the grandad of my first born. Space.

Luckily in this first run I encountered several obstacles of which I learned, and hopefully this knowledge will prove useful to teach other ppl who wants to grow here in Argentina.

Just keep the Love flowing
