Oh, so the pineapple/fruit does come through in the flavor.......very nice. I've always heard C99 associated with pineapple but I didn't know if that was just the aroma. Thanks. I think I'm gonna pick some up with the SB.

Well, I vaporize mostly so I couldn't speak to smoking it. It comes through more in some plants than others.

I've only had grapefruit or pineapple out of the packs I received a few years ago. This last pineapple one I have here is quite loud. Much more smelly than other C99 plants I've had.

@D_Urbmon that SP cola weighed over an ounce. Of course I take it off the big stick but it's still a good thing.

I had a couple of SP plants yield just under 2 zips in the 1 gallon smarts in coco. Coco ftw brother.

Right on man! How much you getting on the C99's? I got all my plants going in 1 gallons right now too. Wondering what I might be able to expect.

I am doing 2 plants currently in coco as experiment and I am liking it so far! I think I am going to completely make the switch next round but I'm not sure how to treat seedlings started in coco.

I can't wait to see how the Killing Fields turns out.

I mentioned earlier I think 32g and 21g. One of them more underfed than the other (it weighed less).

Most plants this run were on the underfed side. Only because some were bordering on the overfed. Still working out just fine overall.

 

[Castroman]

Almost all of it. Most of them I have ran twice.

Northern Lights
Northern Berry
Northern Skunk
Sweet Skunk
Skunk Berry
Sweet Skunk x C99
C99
Kush x NL
Kush x Blueberry

and currently running Texada Timewarp x Sweet Skunk along with Skunk Berry and C99
I'm afraid of that Blueberry because I still consider myself somewhat of a noob.

Hello D_Urbmon, I am a long time lurker who enjoys reading your posts. I'm very excited to see how your first breeding effort turns out, and I'm going to use my first post here to ask you what did you think of Peak Seeds BC's unlisted Sweet Skunk x C99 cross.

I know you recommend the Sweet Skunk, and would love to hear from your experience, how the SS x C99 compares in potency, yield, flowering time to the straight Sweet Skunk.

Comparing SS x C99 cross to straight SS might also be of interest to you, considering you recently pollinated many strains with a C99 male, it might help you understand what C99 does as the pollen donor. And my guess is your first breeding project will turn out great: think of Vic High's legendary Killer Queen, Space Queen had C99 males, and then TGA Subcool seeds (a breeder you also like) typically have C99 male-side contributions via Space Queen, etc.

Chances are you are going to find some stellar stuff in your crosses, especially that SkunkBerry x C99... that's going to be something because all three components have been highly worked by Peak's MikeJ so instead of a "polyhibrid" you have an F1 of sorts. And the SBC's F2's are going to be spectacular, think of phenos where SS's NLxHaze ancestor combines with C99's own NLxHaze component, and Blueberry combining with SS's Grapefruit side, it could be epic.

Hey Thanks castroman glad you enjoy my posts. I very much liked the Sweet Skunk x C99. It added yield and flavor compared to the pure Sweet Skunk and it added yield and a little punch to the pure C99. A little improvement to both strains by combining them if you ask me. It also seemed to bring the flower time down from the Sweet Skunk as I ran into an 11 week pheno when I grew the Sweet Skunk but there were also some 9 week phenos. IIRC I took it to 10 weeks so it definitely still not as fast as the C99. The flowers were absolutely beautiful too and both strains to begin with had spectacular resin glands.

I'm really looking forward to the Skunkberry x C99. Probably the most out of everything I pollinated. You are getting me extra excited.

Thanks so much for the report! So you would actually prefer SS x C99 over C99? Wow, great endorsement. May I ask how is SS x C99 more potent than pure C99, is it more racy, trippier, longer lasting, heart-thumping etc. I hope is not more paranoia-inducing...

The Skunkberry x C99 sounds amazing! Very nice cross D_Urbman! Legit...

You guys are making my mouth water... Cant wait to see the frosty bud pics...

I can't really say I prefer one over the other. as they say variety is the spice of life. But you nailed it man. Racier and tripper type of high from the introduction of the Sweet Skunk. But at the same time a very functional high, not a sit on the couch and munch out type of high. The racy anxietous feelings went away pretty quick though for me, and I have been smoking mainly indica style herb my whole life so maybe I'm just sensitive to the "sativa" like effects.

 

[Castroman]

@D_Urbmon thank you again for your reply (I would have quoted it but apparently I can't?) If you don't mind another question, what would be the top three most potent strains you've grown with a sativa high?

 

[PerroVerde]

4 out of the 6 Peak Kushberry I have going are girls. They took a minute plus letting me see up their skirts. Two have heavy genetic purpling on the stems and under the leaves, the other two are mostly green. Still in one gallon pots and are root bound for sure but I'll be taking some fat clones soon and flowering from there...

Out of this seed run I only have one other girl, a single Mandala Hashberry but she looks great. Peak Seeds represented with 4 out of 6 girls....

 

[D_Urbmon]

@D_Urbmon thank you again for your reply (I would have quoted it but apparently I can't?) If you don't mind another question, what would be the top three most potent strains you've grown with a sativa high?

Probably just the Sweet Skunk and Sweet Skunk x C99. Oh and Dynasty Genetics CCK had a "sativa" pheno.

I've never really grown anything that's advertised as 11-12 weeks or more. Sorry I can't be of more help.

 

[Smidge34]

Oh and Dynasty Genetics CCK had a "sativa" pheno.
.

Yep, sure does, my favorite pheno too. I grew her outdoors and the yield was just massive, but I struggled mightily with caterpillars and mold. Mine had a black pepper aftertaste and was dank af..

 

[Castroman]

@D_Urbmon thanks again. Now I'm going back to lurking, waiting for you to pop the homemade crosses. Notice that CCK has a Romulan x C99 (Space Queen) via Ms. Universe, that's probably responsible for the sativa pheno you liked... that bodes well for SkunkBerry C99

Hey been watching this thread for a while but I currently have 3 kushberry 2 sweet skunks and 2 northern texada week six of flower. Kush berries have very tight hard golf ball nugs(reminds me of bubba from the 90's. They are extremely resinous and smell fantastic. Sweet skunks are tall about 6 feet to be exact not as resinous as previous phenos I've ran but they look damn good. The northern texada is a stable made for breeding plant I've ran it twice so far and it produces decent weight and decent smoke not too weak not to strong but I do warn you I know why it's called timewarp. Several times I over did it thinking it wouldn't catch up to me and found 8 in the morning turned into 8 in the evening quick fast and in a hurry lol.

 

[samhigh]

sexing some skunkberry, will post some pics of the girls soon.

four confirmed females

Has anyone noticed a nute sensitivity towards fox farm soil on his blueberry crosses. I have encounters this with my kushberry plants. I switched to fix farm from my happy frog in an attempt to play the field as far as soil is concerened and I instantly saw twisting of the leaves and indications of burn. Luckily I got it under control in a week or so but was just wondering if anyone else ran into these problems and if not I'm just giving the heads up happy growing.

 

[HeartIandhank]

Man.. I don't know. I don't buy the Ocean Forest is hot thing, not one bit.

I've seen many different varieties of microgreens grown in Ocean Forest.. many times. I've seen a large collection of succulents all in Ocean Forest.. I've seen hundreds of different tender annuals, perennials, natives and cacti grown from seeds in Ocean Forest, no burn.

If Ocean Forest cannot burn the first set of true leaves on lettuce seedlings then there is no way it is gonna burn MJ.

I just don't buy it..

 

[HeartIandhank]

Some people say there is synthetically derived UREA in FFOF which causes plants to burn..I don't believe it.

I know the person to ask though.. On Monday I'll call our Fox Farm rep at the nursery I work at. She will shoot me straight.. I've known her for years.

 

[truesativa]

It's just with the blueberry cross strain. He does have a warning of being very nute sensitive for that strain so that is a possibility. Just putting the question out there for the community but j would love to hear the input your friend has to give because Knowledge is power
