18 Hour Flower Trait Plants Already Flowering - Set for 4th of July Harvest - 5/10/26

Added: 2026-05-18

[00:00:01]Okay, check it out everybody. It is May 10th, May 10th, and we already have flowering plants that hopefully will be ready for harvest right around Fourth of July. See how it goes, but I'll show you these. These are our 18hour flower plants, and I'll explain a little more, but let's start checking them out.

[00:00:23]All right, so here's one of them, first of all. Uh, and this I'm very excited because this is actually our Iranian, the Iranian we work with, but it's crossed with our uh, free the V THCV.

[00:00:38]So, this is going to be Iranian V.

[00:00:43]And just wanted to show you there.

[00:00:46]This one's just starting to go into flower. This is a little bigger plant, so sometimes it takes a little longer for them to flip. Plus, the days are getting longer, so they're not quite as trigger happy, but yeah, they are going into flower. But I'll show you some that are way deeper. So, this was uh the 18-hour flower trait of the Iranian crossed with the 18-hour flower trait of the free the V THCV. Now, this one is clearly much further along into flower.

[00:01:19]And uh yeah, for anyone who didn't see previous video, I'll show you in a little bit the solar lights that we used. Um fortunately, this this plant, there's a bird sitting on this one on the bamboo and it's pooped a little bit on the plant. But so anyway, May 10th going into flower, nice and strong, and these will persist. I've been growing these for years. uh the Iranian by themselves and the free the V by themselves. And yeah, they will just push on through. Uh there we got a little lady bug cruising around. Wonder if I have any aphids.

[00:02:01]We're usually hunting aphids.

[00:02:05]Don't see any aphids. Always good to check though cuz we had a hot hot beginning of the year. So the bugs may come early this year. Here's a free the bee. Some of them have some African genetics in them and sometimes you'll get a little different structure, but this is again the Iranian bee.

[00:02:29]Yeah, looking good. Take a little snip.

[00:02:33]H not not a lot of smell yet. Uh here's one of the bushier ones.

[00:02:39]Not quite as far into flower, but um it's just Try and get that without shadow. Oh, maybe. Um, yeah. So, going into flower.

[00:02:56]This one obviously is in flower.

[00:03:02]So, yeah, this is called locking in your Fourth of July bonus round. And right as these finish up, um, our full season plants will come in right as they come out of the pots and we harvest them.

[00:03:19]Okay, here's here's another one that's getting going with harvest pretty good or with flower. So anyway, you get the point. So, these are just cute little They'll finish off sort of maybe a little higher than your belly button plants, but they're bushy.

[00:03:39]So, they're very bushy, so they actually yield pretty good. We'll see what how.

[00:03:47]All right.

[00:03:49]Anyway, so here's a whole bunch more.

[00:03:52]Wanted to show you this one. Yeah, the little ones go into flower first.

[00:03:59]So, this one is much further along in flower.

[00:04:07]Oh, and for anyone who wants to see just what the V looks like on its own.

[00:04:20]And again, you can veg these and get them huge. You just got to keep a light on longer. But we took the light off quick because we just want this to be a fast little bonus round. So here's the uh V free the V by itself.

[00:04:36]Here's another straight free the bee THCV. So this will probably be anywhere from 5 to 8% THCV and about 10% um THC. There's a really nice looking Free the V.

[00:04:53]And uh then here's another one. This one was a smaller one. And that's what always happens as the smaller ones go into flower purs.

[00:05:07]Yeah. And then I want to show you though these were the last ones in.

[00:05:15]So we've got the solar lights and I'm going to remove these solar lights right now. So this last row came in the latest. We wanted to give them like about two weeks to establish their roots. So they didn't just immediately trigger into flower. So I've discussed this in other videos, but yeah, this is a little Home Depot solar spotlight just tied to a or zip tied to a bamboo and that provides enough light to keep these in bedge. And as you'll see, yeah, these are in full veg mode, no flower, uh because it gets about 6 to 8 hours of light a night from the solar charge on these. So, yeah, all the ones with the lights on them still. So, anyone who's curious, yeah, you can see the other plants are in flower, but these ones because they've had a solar light on them. Again, these used to be $5, I think they're like eight bucks now at Home Depot. Um, but yeah, these are still in bed. So, these are I mean, these are kind of little pipsqueaks, but um we just got to get moving. So, I'm going to take these lights off today.

[00:06:35]Here's another one.

[00:06:38]Lots of shade down here. Uh so anyway, um so hope that's Wow, got some serious light contrast going on there.

[00:06:52]So I'm in the shade.

[00:06:55]Let me get in the sun so maybe it looks a little more balanced. Yeah. So uh there we go. That's our little mini early season bonus round. also for our tours, which we're getting closer. I'll do a video about that.

[00:07:12]But we're almost there with the tours.

[00:07:14]Uh I'm setting up reservation software right now. So it's probably looking like early June in reality is um got total raccoon eyes, I think, on this.

[00:07:26]So anyway, um yeah, we'll um start doing tours. I'm going to announce it probably this week. We're uh I'm setting up all the reservation software right now for booking reservations and everything. So, it's it's been there's a lot of technical details going on because we're actually doing a shuttle shuttle hospitality service, running a farm, running a dispensary, a consumption lounge, and all the and a tincture company, everything else that's going on. So, uh anyway, all right. I'll I'll do another video about that in just a little bit. But, uh, all right. Things are looking good.
