208 grams of Sex Bud (6 plants out of 16 plants (mixed varieties) / 6ooWatt).
Sativa strain, but quickly ripened. 9 weeks will do perfect.
Small buds, but great yield.
Fast growing, needs to be supported (SCROG or else).
Sweet subtle fruity smell. Peaches, pineapple, grapefruit... ๐ But also hints of catpee smell ๐ธ
@Oyziphar,
Probably for the best! I canโt speak for others, but whatever mystery strain I had that time was a small yielder. Thus far all of my C99 mutations have led to more weed. ๐ Iโve heard that Female Seeds are usually pretty solid, and have less variation in phenotypes as well. This is my first time growing from their stock.
@Oyziphar, very nice start! C99 is one of the classic strains! About the 3-leaves plant: everything is alright, it's a small genetic variation, but the plant will grow normally
Wish you good luck with the growth :)
@bobo420,
I do not intend to repot the plants. I'm limited in height. ๐ฉ
In addtion, the size of the pots is 26cmx26cm with four plants in a row = 26cmx4 = 104cm. The wooden trays with pond foil are 120 x 120cm. Not much more room for larger pots....๐
I use Royalmix from Plagron which has been well fertilized for 6 weeks. On top op that, I give the plants a root stimulator, an iron spray and a half-dose growth nutrient.๐
@bobo420, It is not so easy to feed each plant separately. My grow room is not that big to move the plants. I can put them outside, but then I'm afraid that their smell is suspicious....
THX bobo420, They still keep looking a bit hungry. I give them maximum dose Alga Bloom and Green Sensation. The soil is Royal Mix is well fertilzed; it should have enough nutriens for the first 6 weeks., but from day one I gave them extra nutrients: but still the plants draw nutrition from the lower leaves,, so that they look somewhat yellow.
Maybe I have to give them even more than the max. dose mentioned on the package.
If you compare them with the Royal Cookies the difference is stunning. The all got the same nutrion, but the Cookies are dark green, with few buds, almost over-fertilized,
Nice work, Oz. All you girls are looking phenomenal.
I have picked up C99 seeds from Mr Soul just recently.
Curious about this strain.
Looking forward to hearing about your results.
Cheers bro.
With this kind of ebb-and-flow system it is difficult to take care for plants individually. The Vita Race spray helped a lot., and by choosing how much I spray per plant, I could care them separately. But the C99s are really hungry for nutrients.
@Oyziphar, you're welcome. It can vary from plant to plant not just strain to strain, some are thirstier than others and some use nutrients differently. You also switched to flower so they went to their final stretch which maybe made them use up a little more than usual.
@bobo420, Thx for the notice !
I did have a suspicion about nitrogen deficiency. At first the plants were in a pot with lightly fertilized soil, but after repotting and adding food, I thought it would be alright. But also the new leaves remain light in color and the older ones turn yellow.
The other varieties in my growing room show no signs of shortages. On the contrary. The Cookies are super dark green and they received the same fertilization. I water the plants with an ebb-flow system, it is to say I let the plants suck up the water. The C99 are the thirstiest, so at first I thought that the plants may be yellowed by a shortage of water. Or even a shortage of light, was also one of my thoughts.
But now that you also say that it is a nutritional deficit, I'm going to give the plants a boost by spraying them with a fertilization spray.
So my friend, what does this smell like throughout grow can you tell us please, if i grow in a large cupboard with filter do you think the smell would be very powerfull or not? Does it have that skunk smell etc? I only ask as i need something stealthy thats more in the fruit department as i grew female seeds lemon kush and 1 month into veg i had to cut it as it stank so strong it got through my filter and walls, and the neighbours were asking questions, it somehow got through the walls in the room the cupboard was in, baffled me as I sealed the room and had the cupborad at negative pressure.:( Any help on what strain to grow from female seeds or any other breeder would be great my friend's and keep up the superb grows Ozy๐
@PannDanggDiddlyAngg, Thank you for you comment. I got those seeds as a price for winning a cup. First time I did seeds from Female Seeds. I also got one seed called Sex Bud. Both strains are from the same family. C99 is a ancestor for Sex Bud. C99 grows quicker, with slack branches, that's why she needs support. Sex Bud is firmer plant and can stand without support. I like Sex Bud more than the C99. Both are no smelly skunky plants, they are more like fruity peaches. Sex Bus is a bit more smelly than C99. I wish you luck with your next grow !๐ ๐ช๐ป
