Did you contest? I ordered some Chernobyl from the UK when subcool died but they got snagged. Now I’m not sure if I’m red flagged or not. I was a bit of a heat score because my username got used for shipping instead of my real name. I didn’t realize at the time

No. They didn't even send the notice until after the window to contest had closed(100 day window, sent notice after 100 days had already passed). It was clear they didn't want to deal with petty bullshit, so they made it such that I would have to make a stink and pay lawyers etc, IE not worth it on my end, if I chose to go further by trying to recover them by proving they were not devil weed.

The last thing they want to do is waste resources on busting me for <$100 of "probable" cannabis seeds so I can get a conditional discharge or petty fine.

Here are some pics. Small, but finally shaping up nicely. The leaves are still a little wonky, but much better than before.
The light green one looks like it might be a girl, and one of the ones in the back.

Hello, a newby here...looks good...my Blue Berry plants look very similar at one month. I read in the description on the Peakseedsbc website that they are usually one stock with very little side growth...these are as bushy as mine...love it. I defoliate regularly to allow light into the undergrowth...do you think this is a good idea or should I allow the canopy to grow?...thanks

I’ve read many differing opinions on this. Some believe that the flowers need direct light while others state that leaves promote bud growth. So there’s the defol vs no-defol debate. In my current grow I haven’t defoliated anything because I figure my best way to learn what works for me amongst so much conflicting info is through my own experiences.

Fwiw, my lower buds are in total shade and look pretty awesome at this point. I can’t see evidence that a lack of light hurting them, but I still have 4-6 weeks left.

So where are the pics, lol?

 

[GiovanniJones]

One thing that MikeJ told me a while ago was that if you're patient with Blueberry, the payoff comes in late-flower.

Now that I'm almost 4 weeks in, I think I'm starting to see it. Even though the buds are hideously small for 4 weeks, the BB plants are starting to accelerate in their growth. In terms of plant height and foliage, they've almost caught up to my Northern Lights girls. I actually feel like in a short time they'll be larger than all my other indicas.

I'm looking forward to see the progress between now and harvest. Now if the buds'll just start growing in the same way....

Breeders like PSBC and JOTI certainly make it tougher to order beans from further places, but I also get the urge. When I read about stuff like Super Lemon Haze from Greenhouse Seeds or Mango Haze from Mr. Nice, I really feel like taking the risk because it may just be worth it for the final product.

I sniffed both my C99s tonight and they're both seem like grapefruit phenos. I'm still not sure though, I just rubbed the leaves and smelled them.
Now I feel dumb, I should have focused more on the smell of the flowers, lol. I'll check again next time I water.

I'm reading that the pineapple pheno is more up and the grapefruit one is more relaxed. If that's the case, I'd love pineapple, I'm trying to discover and learn what a sativa high is really supposed to be like before I dive into growing a landrace from Ace Seeds. My last two years of vaping and one year of growing experience has focused mainly on indicas and CBDs, with some hybrids. I'm heading into uncharted waters with sativas, C99 being my first harvest.

Here they are, at 23f. For under three weeks of 12/12, I think that the flower growth is impressive in this strain:

Those look fantastic. My experience with my first true Sativa was not all that positive. I had a sour diesel that I was not prepared for lol. For 3 months I was experiencing anxiety, paranoia and weight loss. I thought it was work but talking to a friend going through the same things he has talked to his MJ doctor and was advised to maybe start mixing some Indica with his Sativa.
My next experience was much better. I was told to save it for a day I was going to be doing something whether it be something active or chores around the house. If I hit my Jack Herer in days like that it was amazing. My new favourite, until I smoked some on a lazy rainy day. I found myself jittery and anxious within 10 mins. Again I thought something must be up until I remembered the advice. Sativas for me are get shit done weed. Sativa hybrids are great for socializing but straight Sativa can leave me having a hard time holding a conversation. What I relate it to with others is that it’s like chugging a pot of coffee. Once you realize it’s the weed the anxiety goes away but the jitters and shaken hands remain. Clearly I’m a bit high I’ve rambled but hope my experience helps a bit

Last night I entered week 8 of flower in the tent. I have been watching trichomes and noticed some amber in the SC99 and TSC99 but was only week 7. Last night there was more amber so here was my math........
1. I’m out of good weed
2. Amber trichomes
3. It’s my daytime smoke so I don’t want too much amber.
4. I’m out of good weed
5. Next weeks temps might be perfect for some shed drying.
6. Fuck it’s only day 50!!
7.I’m out of good weed

So they are hanging. 2 NLC99 remain. They are different in structure but similar in smell.

Looking good Harry. C99 can finish that fast and many people would say it's best at 50 or less. Pretty good chance the crosses will finish in a similar timeframe.

I just flipped some of the C99 and Haze crosses. Excited to see how they turn out.

Nice thanks!! I remember someone doing day 52 but glad to hear there are more. I chose them for outdoor fastness so this was a great test. The pure C99 Pineapple pheno should be ready soon

 

[Snowback]

Noticing very different veg speeds in the Kushberries. Healthy overall though. Fortunately, Giovanni and some others on this page have prepared me for the strange veg behavior of Peak's Blueberry. It's actually kind of nice to speculate that a few of them might be BB dominant.

Kushberry for me had poor germination but the two I got are famales and have the thickest stalk I’ve ever seen on young plants

It's a good idea to make sure they have silica available but still be prepared to support the branches late in flower. Cindy buds tend to get heavier than the structure will support.

Looking good, Gio.

I started to type that you should add silica to the feed but then I remembered you do it the silly way.


(For anyone offended on Gio's behalf, it's a running gag. I've been teasing him about organic from day 1)

Lol, love the memes!
Thanks for the suggestions.

I’ve been looking up info on C99 phenos, what’s your experience like with the grapefruit vs. pineapple?

 

[hillbill]

2 C99 drying slowly after 62 day.

Other News: 4 Northern Berry have hit the Viva Towel sauna.

I only grew a couple C99 and found the pineapple pheno that I've kept very early. I honestly don't feel I have any useful experience with any others beyond saying the structure seems quite consistent. Even the SSxC99 crosses tend to look like what I think of as Cinderella 99.

RE taste, smell, effect I've got nothing useful. /shrug

PSBC Blueberry 55f tester
Almost all cloudy, planning to chop around 60f.
This is the last one I have going and I will be happy to see the last of this diva for a while.

 

[GiovanniJones]

HGG, is that 55 days of 12/12 or 55 days since the first pistils emerged?
Just curious because my Blueberries took a while to start flowering after the flip.

Your pic looks great, I'm just getting more and more excited to finally get to try MJ's BB. My only past experience has been the overdried stuff from our LPs. Cheers.
