2 PHK's are completely different phenos. 1 plant is making long fat colas, the other has smaller popcorn buds.

What was you're female to male ratio like this year? I mentioned here before that Last year I got 100% females.
This year I germinated 4, all 4 were female, my friend germinated 3, and all three were female, so 100% female again.
I was really hoping for a male, but I'm not complaining, it's a stellar strain.

Yeah, I had a 3/3 female ratio last year too. Interesting.
Thinking of popping 1 seed at the end of the month, just for a very small outdoor plant to throw this year’s pollen at. Looks like I’ll get a female!
Also growing out a PHK x Sakura (Bodhi) cross I made last year.
Havent seen the PHK bx on his list or in shops for awhile. Wonder why?

edit:
Here is a Nl5/NL1 x 89NL female. Big ol’ fan leaves. Loving life. Untopped, and will probably leave it that way.
Those are calendula plants at the base and some fresh spent grains from this morning’s brew session. 62F7A942-485D-4293-B877-8FED3B318A04.jpeg

Quick question. Does anyone know the origins of his NL5Haze? How long he’s had it and how many generations it has been bred ?

Probably from Seedbank of Holland stock. He has said that he started collecting and preserving back then. He had a bunch of old catalogs.

I popped 4 this year and 100% female. Looking like a fem line. Pretty sure the PHK cut is from Bob Hemphill and HannahBoldt of crickets and cicada seeds :bigjoint:

For some reason I thought it came from The Nature Farm. Thought I read that buried in his IG from a few yrs ago. Either way it’s good stuff.

I know the 95 black dom is from nature farm, obviously they are connected and sharing cuts so I wouldn't doubt it. I was listening to the latest potcast where Bob Hemphill mentions trying to work on a PHK bx. Interesting stuff I'd love to hear more. Thanks for sharing @klyphman ! https://soundcloud.com/the_pot_cast%2Fepisode-57-ft-mr-bob-hemphill-of-crickets-and-cicada-seeds

Couple guys saying high… WW x Blue and a big Hawaiian Cat. What’s your approach to collecting and storing pollen?

One thing i will add to what has already been said is that you have to be very careful of humidity levels of the space you are working in.
when it comes to collecting and storing pollen, you need to try to keep the humidity below 50%. 40-35% is the ideal.
When you have high humidity, when collecting the pollen by letting cut branches sit in a cup of water and let the pollen drop
in my experience it makes collection harder because the pollen will clump up with the moisture instead of in the dry flour consistency.
it will render a good amount of that pollen collected useless because once the individual grains of pollen touch moister they deteriorate and not be viable.
same thing goes for storage. Make sure the pollen is very dry before putting in a storage container. If moist the exact same thing can happen but worse.
Let's say the container is very narrow and doesn't have a lot of surface area in it, if a couple moist grains are in the container it will spread and render all the pollen useless.
A wider container with more surface area helps with this, if a couple moist grains sneak in they don't spread throughout the whole container and can be recognized and rectified by removing faster.
another way to help with this is use a desiccant in your storage container. a few pieces of rice, a pack from a bottle of medication you got from the store take your pick
these are just a few lessons i have learned the hard way, and trying to pass on the knowledge so people can avoid my mistakes
one such mistake was trying to collect from a surface when humidity levels were really high
a good portion clumped together and was rendered useless, and the pollen i believed to be "still good" and put in a storage contains had moisture creep through and ruin all of it
humidity level are your worst enemy when it comes to collection.

My ma grew out some of the vintage blueberry x blueberry muffin. Nice buzz, very mellow but still noticeable even while smoking concentrates. Good for anxiety and daytime smoke imo. Three phenos, one pretty average blueberry plant. One dark purple with subtle sour berry flavors that stick around just long enough to identify them. Then a sour pheno that yielded the best that had this cloying sour blueberry syrup profile that coated your mouth. Will definitely pop the rest and try and find another strong tasting sour berry pheno.

I just popped a few skunk qabbage x tknl5haze and more gst x consumption. Im looking for a similar pheno to a strain we smoked growing up called 'fruit of the gods' from delta9, it was a nice blend of funk and fruit but man it was addicting and packed a punch. The gst x consumption is similar lineage, so im giving it a go.
