Clone only strains

Ime, the slow veggers just need their time. For example, the kkool aid kush I have is rather slow. But when given the proper amount of veg time the yields increase exponentially. I believe the cookies is just like that. It was prolly better to just top it when you did, it should save sometime overall.
You right bro. I'm in no rush with her at all. She will veg as long as I need her too till she get to wear she takes off. I always top as early as I can that way I can get my canopy started early. She's as healthy as can be so no complaints at all just a lil slow but that's nothing I can deal with I'm very patient

After looking at many OGKB pics on Instagram and seeing every single person reports how slow she vegges I can confirm its OGKB. The Chernobyl I have was same size started same way and she double size of OGKB. Saw reports of early topping can slow her down and I did top her early but only to get my main branch canopy going like I do with everything I grow. Hope fully she picks it up or she will be vegging for a very long time
Have you grown chernobyl before? If not you will be in for a surprise of the frost monster, not the biggest yielder but makes up in smell, flavor, potency, and looks. It is one of my favorites but I have been smoking it so much as I have about a qp of it now that I have built a tolerance to it but my friends are always up for a free sample.

Never grown it bro but I can tell its gonna be nice. The nodes aren't super stacked so I can tell she's not gonna be a major yielder but I never look for that in plants that's just a bonus to me. I've seen how frosty they can get so its gonna be interesting to see. Chernobyl is really looking like a candidate for my hydro beast run. By the way she's growing she's gonna love it. I can see the XL working on her now making her huge in a weeks time. Man gotta get that system going again soon

Hi guys ,
How can I "save" clone only genetics in seed form?
I've heard and read several opinions from CS S1 fem seeds to bx-ing with a stable male of similar lineage.
Who has done these crosses and what were your experiences with the beans you made?
Thanks

It will all depend how homogeneous the mother is. If she is not you won't even be close.. You will never find a replica even if the plant is homogeneous. Maybe something that resembles the mother. If youre trying it with a polyhybrid your wasting your time.

I haven't but breeders do it all the time. Like kgp said if the mother ain't homogenous then it's not gonna work. BXing can work tho as it's been done with a few phenos but I think you have to have some luck cus you don't see many of the BXs coming out exactly like the mom. C99 is one I know that was done there's a couple others on third and fourth BX but it's hard to do cus if it wasn't all the elites would already be in seed form and not just from being crossed to the prized male/s

Do you have to get rid of it soon? Is that why you're prepping to try and save the genetics?
No , but if I get something good I want to keep , but don't want to keep running it , I'd like to preserve the genetics for later down the line to cross with or run again.

That's the bad thing bout clone only , there no male to BX with.
I would have to CS one of the S1 pheno to breed back to the mother , since no real father exists.

Stress the fem and make her hermy, thus creating the pollen and then pollinate your fems thus getting beans from the clone only.

The Platinum OG I got the other day well I vaped some last night and for the fourth time in my life I whited out shit almost passed out and i had taken a klonopin an hour before but like usual I ate a brownie to bring my blood sugar back up and after about 20 minutes I was fine but until then I had to park it on the couch and put on pandora to calm myself.

Whoever grew this POG strain knew what they were doing or just got lucky, i only wish I had bought more. It tested at 23.5 so it was top notch.

Some tangie amber tested at 85%, extremely strong:

Grape Ape = Afghani x Skunk #1

Skunk #1 is supposedly the father of Grape Ape. So if you're going to do some back crossing, some Afghani, or Skunk #1, would make suitable studs for your little grape vixen.

Hope everyone one is good! We made it to Oregon last week and I have been securing work and now working on a place. I have all my clone onlys siting with a friend and will be getting my cuts as soon as I can get a house. I had some clones of them but between my cat and the mailman not many made the trip. Good thing I took my moms to my buddy. I will get anything I promised out as soon as I can it has been crazy the past few weeks:)
