The possibilities are endless. One thing for certain though is that you’ve got real solid stable starting genetics with anything PeakSeedsBC. If you want a fast flowering outdoor monster daytime strain you should check out their Texada Skunk x C99. It’s a big one and one of Mike’s current favs. They also pump out perfect clones and root faster than any of the others I’ve tried this year.

Yes. Its seem the guy is serious about breeding.That texada skunk was in my scope but I did not know he crossed it with C99. I will check it out on my next order.
Shipping clones ? And their very good too. Hm.mm..thats interesting.

Does anyone know anything about a deep deep purple stemmed Skunk Berry pheno

No I just mean the plant itself is structured perfectly for taking nice healthy sized clones. Great side branching.

Whoops I didn’t realize my Skunk Berry question was still there. Meant to be separate post. I have this beauty going to my folks as they want a couple for fun. She’s got some serious deep purple stems that have an almost cheesy berry smell. I’ll definitely have to take some cuttings in the near future. Just curious if thus trait is specific to one pheno or if it’s varied.FF031B0D-9CA5-4230-8327-E114F4560D90.jpeg

Wow Harry, that's pretty amazing looking. I have three SB plants in the room now (one male was culled last night) and thy have purple stems, but nothing like that. Keep her going, I look forward to the smoke report!

I've been told that when you grow Blueberry, it's slow and tough, but there's a pot of blue gold at the end of harvest. The reward better be pretty amazing because Peak's BB is so unbelievably slow. I've sexed all the plants in my room, composted all the males and my plants are all growing beautifully, except for my BB. They're small and after 5 weeks of veg and 12 days of flower, I still have no clue whether they're male or female. The preflowers are still so small that with magnification, I'm still clueless.

I'm still eagerly anticipating my reward. I need to see what BB is all about, and not from Canada's licensed producers. I just didn't know that it would be this tedious. Kudos to the growers that have successfully grown this plant from seed to harvest.

Of course, none of this applies to DJ Short's BB. I planted two; one didn't survive and the one that did was male. It grew quickly and gave off no smell whatsoever after rubbing the leaves a little. Peak's plants smell beautiful when I rub the leaves and it's a treat to do so everyday. I can already see that if there's anything special with BB, Peak's has it, DJ's doesn't seem to.

Take this all with a grain of salt, because statistically speaking my sample size of Peak x 3 and DJ x 1 is so small that it doesn't mean much. Just what I've noticed. And no slight against DJ who's tireless hard work back in the day gave us this amazing strain to begin with.

Giovanni, Thanks to one of your previous reviews as well as my past experience with the Vancouver Island purple kush, there is now a pack of Kushberry sitting in the fridge. I wonder what that freebie pack of "b grade" seeds has hidden in it???

Hey Gio,
Can't say you weren't warned. ;)

Like I'd mentioned earlier, I'm flowering out my last pure Blueberry for a while. I've got pollen from a few males for any crosses I want to make (Romulan x BB, JOTI OG Kush x BB, JOTI BB x PSBC BB are in the mental queue) so I'm moving on. For me Peak BB was a big challenge for my developing skills and I have no regrets, but I feel my efforts will be better rewarded by other strains.

I get what you're saying. I'm still a rookie at all this and still trying to figure out which categories of strains work best medically for me, so that's why I'm trying to grow out a BB. On that note though, I feel like NL is a good one for calm, restful sleep. JOTI's NL as well as Mr. Nice's Ortega will be a part of my next grow because I want to keep exploring the NL world for a while. It's the first time that's happened, I feel like I'm constantly learning.

I relate very strongly to that. Isn't it a mindfuck when you start seeing the interconnectedness of it all? When you get to the point of noticing little traits in a plant and you realize that you can tell something about its lineage just by its look or by a hint of a smell or taste or some subtle effect?
Then you realize you have barely begun to scratch the surface and that there is so much more to learn than one lifetime can allow. Growing is very rewarding, but very humbling as well. I'm so happy that I found this hobby/religion/science. :)

This is how I felt when I found the Pineapple pheno of a Jack Herer. It was a total fluke but it got me reading and that led me to Cinderella99 which in turn led me to PeakSeedsBC.

Hey Guys!

New user here from Victoria BC coming out of lurking after a little while, and first time growing outside of a more guerrilla setting, many years ago. Its been pretty damn cool the changes in tech and available information . I'm loving being able to find new effects and experiences while filtering out the marketing bullshit :)

My first run is mostly peak, with:

SSxC99 x8 (+1 mutant)
Blueberry x8
Mix pack x5(+1 runt) Hopefully as we go I'll be able to make some guesses as to what they are! I'm stoked on a lime green sativa leaning plant,

I'm also running some of Joti's strains

God's Citrique freebies x3 +1 mutant
NL x4
Gods super skunk x Chernobyl x4

I'm running about 740 watts (real) of cobs and quantum boards in 6' x 4' area with some plants to go outside. I'm also going for organic living soil using my best approximation of the updated Coot's mix and aact.

I had some problems with leaf twisting due to light intensity, but having dropped back the lights they look happier.

That JOTI BB looks nothing like the Peak ones I've planted, nor like the DJ BB I had.
I'd love to try it out one day though, I've read some great reviews on it.

So last night I transplanted a bunch of plants into larger pots. Still, I have five that are in one-gallons:
  • A female SB
  • A female NS
  • 3 unsexed BB
I only have room to up-pot two of the above plants, and which ones get to stay depends on the number of BB that are female.
Things look really nice, but I don't want to double post pics here because I've already posted them to my grow journal (which you all are welcome to check out).

Fwiw, I wasn't sure how to select which SB and NS to up-pot, and which to keep to the side as maybes. I eneded up basing this off of smell. The ones that had a better smell when rubbing the leaves went into bigger pots. I couldn't think of any other way to pick.

Hey everyone, I've got a question for those here with BB expertise.

Is it just me, or are they really hard to sex? I feel like I'm seeing two females (of three), but the pistils seem like they're green so they're hard to discern from the rest of the plant, even magnified. Have you noticed this in your past grows, or are they white just like other plants? They're not easy ones to sex!

On the flipside though, I feel like finally, they're beginning to grow normally with good leaf health, but look a couple of weeks behind the other plants in the room. When I try BB again, I'm going to germinate them 2-3 weeks in advance of the other plants so that by 12/12, they're at about the same size. It's almost like there's a hurdle that you have to pass with them, but when you do, they become a little easier to grow and care for.
