    www.humboldtseeds.net this is a seed company that high times did an add for some interesting stuff ,they have one strain called the new ,I think it grows golden buds cause the seeds are 70 for three thats right $70 for 3 seeds ,and outside plant can produce up to 3000 G and its supposed to have a 29%thc count, the web site has alot of other strains more reasonably priced with exceptionally high yielding plants .thought you might like to check it out with the research that you do

      to pay that price I would have to grow one plant clone it to get the 8 plants needed to do a run ,but dam they do sound good ,most of the other seeds are much cheaper ,I just saw this in an email from high times mag,Ive never bought from them before ,ATU what did you pay 90 for and where they worth it, I'm in the process of trying to buy form flash seeds .

      SoOrbudgal Actually, I agree with you. I'm very skeptical about all the hype that surrounds the marketing of new strains. I wrote this about it: https://forum.growweedeasy.com/forum...nnabis-strains

    I am in total agreement alltaup with your article thanks for cross referencing strains/breeders. Old tried and true cup winners, clone the ones we like. Cheers to old school genetics. It all boils down to the art of growing weed well, timing of harvest and cureing. I just am not interested in dropping $80 for 3 seeds but there will be those who do. PS took 2 cuts off Mama Mia from seedsman strong grower. Also taking cuts from Barney's Critical Kush today looking at getting 2 healthy clones and all those will be for fall/winter tent.

      I have to agree as well but there is one caveat: Starting with great genetics means YOU as the GROWER have the potential to bring that plant to its best life within the boundary of its genetic framework. I don't see how you can take it beyond that nor do I see poor genetics easily exceeding another's well bred parents. Although exceptions exist, they may exist more readily with great growing conditions. Not being a lab, I could not really tell...

      I have had 1-2 hit joints decades ago that I'm guessing now had to be infused with something as it was quite rare but exceptional. Was that amazing weed a genetic superstar?...I dont' have a clue

        I go by thc/cbd and yield predictions also when Ive grown and really like a strain ,I do think I will act on your wisdom in the future and pick up some cup winners if I remember in a couple of years when I buy seeds again lol

          DAY 52 12/12 (WK 7 FLOWER):

          The plants in the sweet light spot are doing swimmingly. The two plants (one in each box) that didn't make it into the sweet light spot kinda got crowded out of the light by the larger plants; they have smaller buds and are growing slower.

          OGKush in front has small buds at this point, with very thick leaves. Her trichomes are modest.

          Meanwhile, Green Crack on the left is as triched out as she can be. She's still putting out a few new calyces and stigmas, but most of the tops have stopped.

          Other box: C99 right rear should be ready in a week give or take. When I get some of those horizontal colas out of the way, the other two plants will heave a sigh of relief.

            Wow, that's quite the cabling system you have on Cindy. I have a hard time with one strain in a run...you have a lot going on and it all looks pretty well managed.

          These are yield bearing colas and I’m quite sure you’ll be breaking your record....

            Thanks for stopping by everyone. Some things have gone quite well, but I don't think I'll beat my harvest weight record because of the two shorties (WW and OG Kush).

            What C99 did was totally unexpected: I've grown her twice previously, and she never did what she did on this grow, which was to stretch 400%. That was definitely unexpected, because she didn't grow all that strong during veg. I wonder if it's unstable genetics or what... Of course, I'm seriously considering growing her again next round just to see what she'll do!!!

            The trick for me working in the grow boxes is to get the girls tall enough to stretch into the sweet spot during flower; I have a dial in the ballast that will allow me to turn down the LEDs (ideal for plants that get too tall), but not good for the shorter plants. I guess I could solve the problem by growing all the same strain in one box, but that is boring. I'm stubborn and I want 3-4 strains per box. So there's my trade-off when they all exhibit different growth traits.

            Something else I have to learn to do better is to control the number of colas, get them into the sweet spot and then have 8-10 colas per plant that all get as phat is the phattest buds on this grow. I'm still learning how to use these grow boxes to their best advantage.

              Goodmorning ATU very beautiful grow I would love to have 8-10 colas that were 12" long per plant. I love how you trained them. I'm gonna try and do that indoor this winter with 4 clones from summer harvest. I didn't want to waste the new seeds I've purchased for experience sake. LOL Your defol has worked out beautifully I get the message

              SoOrbudgal Me too!! 8-10 colas, 12-16 inches of bud and the girth of a coke can. Is that too much to ask for???? ;-}

            I did not know your shorty was a ww..... I have a runt ww that looks barely 12” tall after 7 weeks and looks like a bonsai ....the others are big and robust and normal. The ww is ultra mini, but still living so, I’m letting it go

              Welcome to the auto grow I just harvested Farmall. My GDP blast autos were dwarfs, grew the frosty leaves but few calaxies were seen. I let them go for 4 months i'll be lucky to get 1oz outta them after I tried to trim the stalk of leaves looking for something that resembled a bud. Bad unstable seeds. Oh well

              Farmall WW is doing better than OG Kush, who's the real runt. Sometimes it happens...

            HARVEST C99, PART A:

            I've had my eye on C99 all week; she's been flushing for 2 days. I snipped the tops of colas and I reckon the rest will be ready in a day or two. The other two in the box will be ready this week, I believe, so I'm just adding pH'd water to the reservoir.

                I have to admit, my first reaction was... ‘wtf’ ... ‘ these are monstrous ‘. My second reaction was that these are novelty miniatures in place to make the other items in the photo appear completely out of scale, but then, I know the grower so its back to ‘wtf’

                  Hi alltatup ... would you mind posting a pic of your C99 mid harvest? I often take the tops of my plants off first and leave the bottom part for a few days so the lower buds can mature a little more.

                  I'm just curious as to what your "second cut" area looks like now while it's still growing.
