Can anyone comment on the Fruity Pebbles growth?

I've got 9 of these little girls vegging and they are probably one of the shortest, bushiest plants I've ever seen.

How's the stretch going into flower? I have the other half of my tent ready to go, but I'd really like these girls to grow another 5-6" before flower.

I wasn't expecting them to be so squat. I would have ran a different strain that grew similar with it, now I'm worried one half of my tent will be too big, and the other half to small going into flower
How did yours turn out? I put down a 12 pack of the FPOG Fems and they are HEAVY Indica. They do seem to be stretching quite a bit after flip though but had remained pretty squat prior to flip. Huge fans with extra wide blades.

So I found some grows on firestax regarding the FPOG Fems....and they aint good. Intersexing early flower and mutants. Both of which I have and currently am dealing with but Jaws still released the seeds. Thats a total dick move. He even states in both of these grows that the seeds were a bust and that they wont be released and that he is scrapping the poject for FEM FPOG's.

But yet here I am a year and a half later with a room full of FPOG fems throwing balls and nanners in week 3 of flower and another unopened pack of this shit.
This is off of 1 plant that got chopped last night:

One of 2 packs dated a few months after the thread on Firestax reporting intersex issues, odd leaf coloring & mutants.....

He claims he wasnt going to release them due to so many intersex reports. :roll:

hoping my Jaws FPOG regs purchased early last year dont go the same way?

Unfortunately I have a pack with the same born on date. In the threads you linked he did mention having a second different batch of seeds that were as of the writing of the thread untested . I guess our hope is that they're from a different batch tho that seems unlikely. I guess that's why the fpog fems were cheaper than the rest

Ok, so the fem pack you have is prior to the date of the thread meaning he put out what he said he wasnt. :( The earliest thread for tester was Jan 2017. Any FEM packs from that date and prior is "tested" hermie beans (unfortunately our packs are from before that in 2016).

You're very likely right but we don't know for sure. In the tester thread he stated that there was another batch of beans but he didn't specify the date they were harvested. My take was that they had already been harvested but had yet to be tested as of the threads you linked. And the born on date is two months before the tester thread... Idk it could go either way. Although without confirmation that they are in fact from a different batch they will go to the bottom of the pile or be used outdoors. I can't afford that big of a risk in my inside. Space is too critical and I'm too afraid of ending up with seeds or big empty holes from having to cull plants.

If the date on the pack is the same as mine, your gonna get hermies and balls. They are from the same seed batch yours and mine.

I'll put this right here and just let everyone judge for themselves what kind of scruples Jaws has. There are other links to the same poor test grows with the exact same results but I think this one pretty much says it all.
Proof is in this thread he knew about the issues of hermies and mutants, made comments regarding the issues and the time stamps on the comments prove it all.
Both my packs were made months before the tester thread above so you be the judge......

No, since I dont think I'll be telling him anyhting he dont already know about the FEM FPOG's.
They were probably released due to demand... I read that thread on Firestax before and still wanted them...think wedding cake...they should have come with a warning for those that didn't though...did yours at least have the desired smell?

I have 2 above ground. I'm not even sure if I should grow them? maybe try from clone? that sucks he released these if they're hermies. wasted $80. i'm only on my second grow so i'm a little scared to run them.

I popped all 12. I have 2 of the remaining 8 that have any frost or decent looking buds. All the others are underdeveloped, tall useless plants. No smells on any of them so far and Im in like week 5/6. Some of the worst genetics I've ever run.

It wont clone out. Folks in the tester threads already tried and they threw balls again first 2 weeks of flowering the clones. :/

Well start with the "good".
These are the 2 of the 8 plants left that look ok/normal. These were of the "fatleaf" Jaws said to be the "cereal phenos". I got a little smell, but nothing I would call sweet, fruity or milky. Its almost non existent to be honest.

Heres one of the "crinkle leaf mutants" that showed up in everyones testers as well. Its literally 1/3 the size of the rest and looks 3-4 weeks behind everything else in bud development. Keep in mind, this whole 12 pack was planted at the same time. I had others like this but tossed em before flower....and Im glad I did. I just kept this one to show how the others would have grown.
When they were in veg they looked almost cal/mag deficient with odd light green colorings displayed throughout the leafs but with no designated pattern unlike a deficiency. The odd colorings cleared up now since flowering, but the crinkle is still present.

I dont know what to call this? Its very tall, underdeveloped buds and lots of leafy larf. Might as well be a head of lettuce.
