Trippaul Threat (PdN x BMJ) Community Grow

This is a dedicated grow log for Tristen's awesome cross, which I
have been growing out since 2014.  I'll start with a bit of history and
some photos documenting what's happened so far.
 
In January of 2014, Tristen (Trippa) sent me a little care package of seeds.
In the package were two generations of a cross he had made, which he just 
called 'Mystery Cross, F1' and 'Mystery Cross, F2'.  
 
Here's Trippa's Mystery Cross seedlings in February of 2014:

 

 
Both generations showing the purple foliage characteristic since the beginning.
 
Up close look at Trippa's Mystery Crosses, F1 and F2.  Both culled to a single
plant after the photo taken, so I only had one plant of each generation:

This will probably be the last update until the end of June,
since we are going out of town for awhile. Our son is caretaking
house, plants and yard for us in the meantime. Ill try to check in
to the thread once in a while, so I hope everyone will keep their
progress updated so I can marvel at your mad skills!

The F4 plants still outpacing the F6 plants in terms of height. Overall
growth for both has slowed while the roots are busy exploring their
new containers. Once the roots begin to hit the sides of the pots, I
expect there will be a major growth spurt.

A couple of the F4 plants sort of caught a cold or something and
developed some funky leaves a while back, but the new leaves seem
to have shaken it off.

Its hard to get a decent pic of the plants in a group, so I shot each
plant separately.

F6 plants:

Thats all for now, unless something unusual happens in the next week!
Good growing to all may there be heat in your futures soon

Mine are still alive, and looking better. Nothing like the other plants in here though

Patience, my friend! Things sort of go at their own pace.
Your plants will be awesome!

 

[Walchit]

They are starting to take off now, should I round them up for a picture? Lol

 

[Walchit]

I think this is all of them, I do have a couple plants that didn't get labeled somehow so once they flower we might have one or two more lol.

I ended up with three whites and three purples. Their leaves all just flattened back out from over watering, and the seem to have straightened up(like my hunchback brother)!

 

[Devv]

Looking good peeps!
 
Mine are out in the wilds fending for themselves; my fingers are crossed!

Bon Voyage buddy! We will keep them home fires burning for you. Have a blast and we will look forward to some great stories and pictures on your return

Can definitely see the PDN parentage in these F6 Purple pheno babies. Awesome colour foliage lads.
Good germ rates as well. [emoji106]

Been about a week since seeds hit soil. 2/4 PDN x Bonda white have popped.

So far none of the PDN x Bonda Purple have shown hooks. I love the color on these already. 

 

[Malarky]

Just out of curiosity and because it's important to share the right information...
We are growing a PDN x Bonda cross and not a Bonda x PDN?

They look great, Andy - color and shape right on.
Nice and healthy.

I hope they are getting some good Texas Spring weather.
Can't wait to see flowers on those babies, Scott!

Thanks, Lourens.  Segovia is a cool place, especially the old part of the city.
Lots to see and history to absorb.  Maybe I can sneak in an off-topic picture
once in a while 
 
Your grow is awesome this year, buddy - good luck getting through the grow
season with no calamities!

Indeed, Sim. They look very robust and rarin' to go!
Glad to hear the germ rates are good.

Alright, Indigo! Hooks ahoy!  My purples took a while to germinate, too,
but I had very poor germ rates on my purple pod seed. Good luck going
forward!

Hey, Matt.  I have always thought of it as PDN x Bonda, but Tristen
can speak to paternal and maternal parentage better than I. What say,
Tristen?

Look fine and dandy to me Andy, 6 nice healthy seedlings.
Nice even balance with 3 of each colour, and a few more maybe [emoji23][emoji23].

Howdy folks! My PDN x Bonda seedlings are finally in soil and looking very purple. I have one t5 fluorescent tube out of four that's 6400k plus UV output, and I think it's caused the "suntan."

Have a great vacation Paul!

Oh, yeah, Rick, those look great. Love the purple color, alright.
I hope they perform up to your expectations!

We got into Segovia today, after 30 hours of traveling and a short
Night in Madrid last night. Its nice to be here again in the heart of
a 15th century city.

 

[Walchit]

Where are you posting pics of this 15th century City?

 

[Malarky]

Segovia is awesome. Enjoy it thoroughly
  

 

[Devv]

Have fun Paul!

Peppamang, could you make that image a bit bigger, I couldn't quite make out the iron molecules in the soil   
 

 

[Masher]

Getting very crowded!!!
 
Back row is 3 whites
 
Middle row is 3 purples.
 
I don't have space to separate but they are doing great!
 

 

[stickman]

Coming along Paul... The taller of the two plants, the purple pod pheno. The white pod pheno is an inch shorter.
