@Mr_Positivo, How did the harvest go at week 17? I have a GC that is also showing a mixture of clear, cloudy, and a few red trichomes. All other signs say harvest. Wasn't sure if it was just this particular strain. Thanks!

Mr_Positivocommentedweek 177 years ago

Thanks C, Yeah, I think i was being too dramatic, Its a nice smell but in a tar kind of way. It reminds me a bit of nicotine, I worked on a farm picking tobacco when I was a kid. Its that kind of natural. smell. Thanks for the advice, Mr C. I am having a hard time figuring the harvest timing out. Peak smell was about a week ago and therefore think my grows peak ripeness may be past. Some of the tops have lost their scent. Some are not sticky anymore. Most buds I have picked today show cloudy trichomes mixed in with clear and some amber. Typically, I would wait until I observe more trichome cloudiness but I think I am wrong on this. I think there are elements of my grow that are out of sync. and I shouldn't use trichomes as the only guide. I Will start harvesting tomorrow. 😊

@Brotherland420, The Green Crack was the least successful of the plants I was growing wk 17. but its effect is pretty intense all the same. Not so much body stone but more head stone with a strong shift in how your perceive things. I harvested with cloudy trichs and not a lot of amber. This is an afghan , skunk hybrid, it should be brilliant on the physical side. If I was going to run again, I would hold out for the amber. Thats my preference. Also, I flipped this girl I am now growing, wk 27, twice. Not a good move I don't think and perhaps a reason why vigor and size of plant is not what I was hoping for. Green C , this pheno, is not frosty nor particularly smelly. Jury is still out on how successful this second grow will be. Happy growing brother. I hope you post some photos at some point. Stay in touch.

Hi Barnes. Thanks my friend. Finishing her off the Barnes way after reading one of your posts. The runoff is at 200ppm. She was down to feeding at 25ppm/day. I can feed her out , is what I am thinking. No flush needed. To vape I use, https://arizer.com/extreme-q/ with the whip. I love vapes for the reason they allow you easy early sampling of your buds.

BDK, I believe you are a fan of Gorilla Glue, which I noted from one of your own grow comments. I am looking for a powerful strain and GG looks like it might be a good choice. Yep. I am heading for all kinds of space problems as a result of mainlining. By the time my canopy recovers, my plants are going to be too big, probably. A 10 week start to finish sounds pretty good to me.👍

@GH_SOHO,Gorilla Glue #4 is a wonderful body buzz hybrid. I love it for nerve pain.

@GH_SOHO,it's strong and fast , I like to grow 2 of everything as there are some different phenotypes, having said that the gorilla glue seems to have the least variance 👍

CANNASIMcommentedweek 187 years ago

Nice results bro! 👏🏻👏🏻 Buds look good! Nice to have this many varieties also! Cheers!

@GH_SOHO, I can imagine, for me the different strains are having different needs, so is harder run different water schedules and light distance... 👍 Cheers!

@CANNASIM, Thanks, Bud. Definitely nice to be able to compare strains too but its tricky keeping them in line during the stretch. So now I am going to try a mono grow. With one plant,ha! Cheers C.

I've read that you weren't happy with your harvest , getting less yield, I don't wanna be a pain in the a** but remember when I've told you to let the tops grow a few nodes before switching into 12/12 ? 😉 With this plant , just let the tops grow 2 nodes minimum, I promise you'll get pineapples buds from each tops and a massive yield 😉

@Mr_Positivo,Hahaha 😄

Mr_Positivocommented7 years ago

I would love to get me some pineapple buds, Barnzie. I am going to follow your advice, grow a good bush on my girl and then put her into flower. I also discovered my mag deficiency was a light issue. My CalMag supplementation was doing no good. Pink stems everywhere. Even though I have cut back massively on my lighting levels from previous grows, I am still off. My little 3x3 is now at about 150 watts. Thank god for dimming function. Thanks for your support too, bro. The truth is out there. .. but usually to be found on youtube GB channel at about 11 45 EST Sundays. ha ha.

@@@@@@@@@@Tryhard_grower_grower_grower_grower_grower_grower_grower_grower, Good to hear from you Bro. I love the orange pistils also. They are withering gracefully. ;-) You may interested to know I sampled a bud-let a few hours ago. I am 2 wks out from Green Crack harvest. I wasn't expecting much of an effect. All trichomes are clear, plant lacks smell and a there is a perceived lack of frosting. Definitely not a white widow this lady. A bit of research reveals the Afhgan bud, comparatively speaking, looks dry and leafy. This is is the dominant trait for this Crop Kings version I have. Well then. I love using a vape for early testing. I fired her up today and all i can say is, Holy shit, The effect starts with a lovely euphoric body high. Its very intense and after a few gear changes, moves into the head. This baby is way more spectacular than I could have imagined and we are not done yet. Hats off to Crop Kings, Their Durban is spectacular also but this GC is something else. I hope you have fun with yours. ps. i had to edit this post for typos about 10times!

@@Tryhard, Green Crack from first run. She was strongly physical but not sedating and this came along with plenty of spacey effects. I highly recommend even though this last run nutes were tuned to the other strains, she performed pretty well. This run is all Green Crack and she is looking quite different because I adjusted light,lower , and could go further btw. And fine tuned the nutes to suit. Ask me again after this run. I am expecting a better result. Cheers. :-)

Flowers are looking awesome! 👍🏻 Burned rubber is not sounding natural, check the equipment to make sure nothing is wrong. It can also be the strain specific smell hehe. If you pull them now the high will be more balanced, if you choose more amber bocome a more narcotic couch lock like high. 👊🏻👊🏻

@CANNASIM, I have cracked a few nuggets now I am in harvest mode. Very different smell than previously described. Wow. One Green Crack hand a sandalwood /pine smell. very pungent. Its been a feast for the nose. Not a hint of that green veg. smell. The scent is overwhelming. Fingers crossed I end up with that after cure.

@CANNASIM, Fingers crossed. Agreed. A marathon, and I have part 2 for this trip yet to come. A plant I culled from the final six plants, I put in the window and have vegged up until now. Going to flower her following this coming harvest. So this grow will be a super long trip this time around. All good though. Learnt a lot. Cheers.

I think its cool how you harvested her twice. Was 2nd time smoke same as 1st?

Mr_Positivocommented7 years ago

@DeathEvil, About half of the harvest was much better in quality than the first despite my errors. I must have been getting something right. The other half of the harvest I didn't even try to vape, turned it all into edible coconut butter in my magic butter machine. :-) I would be curious to give this strain one more run as the potency is up there and I don't think I got close to optimizing it. Good to hear from you, DE. Cheers.

@JUNGLE_B4RNS, She is showing a lot more pistil this time around. Higher p/k is my guess. The photos don't really do her justice. She is much nicer up close. ;-)😊

Transplanted to Rootmaker 1 gal. pots. Round or square? I am not sure if these planters make a difference. Certainly the logic behind them makes sense. Grow roots grow.

Using 4" Rootmaker propagation pots to enhance root growth. Growing 3 seeds from Nirvana's Supreme CBD Kush. ( 8% CBD, 8%THC strain) Not Feminized. Growing 2 seeds from Crop Kings Durban Poison. Feminized. Growing 2 seeds from Crop Kings Green Crack. Feminized. Has anybody had experience growing these strains?
