I thought you were referring to a seed Bank, sorry.

It was 2nd to last among my patients out of that grow. I agree. It looked good, but just didn't have it. I've acquired Dominion Skunk and Granny Skunk sees recently and will be running them soon. I have higher hopes for them.

Can anyone confirm that Mr. Bob Hemphill and Hannah Boldt were doing the breeding on these 2 strains?

Yes they did work on these 2 strains about 3 years ago.

Thank you. I just ran C&C's Puck BC2. 3 females and they're all good. I'm curious to see how the NL1 does with the Puck. I heard on a podcast that he's holding 12 packs of the Puck Yeah. I hope he plans to BC it.

The Puck BC2 is already Puck x NL1, so you know basically what to expect.
Im not 1005 positive but the Puck BC2 might be ging through all the genetics since Nevil
Nevil used Pacific Northwest Hashplant x NL1 used a male from that and created is Hashplant strain, which is where the Puck was found in around 1987- 1988..
Flash forward 3 decades, and Bob Hemphill procured the original Puck Cut, and the Pacific Northwest Hashplant Cuts. Not sure where the NL1 came from but 1 guess may be from AKBeanBrains, who says hes had it since 1985.
So Hemphill gets the original Puck cut, and backcrosses it back to NL1, wherever the NL1 came from. Not to mention he says he experimented 3-5 years before he brought these Puck crosses to market. This cross would have produced last years drop of the C&C BC2, and a further backcross would produce BC3.
Guessing again but the Puck Yeah is like what the Puck BC1 would be. I bet he may go through a male search on those 12 packs of Puck Yeah.
Hows about a smoke, and short grow report on the Puck BC3?

It was BC2, not BC3. I have one small BC3 that's finishing up now and a Shoreline x Puck. I had 3 of 3 females with the BC2. They all grew under 30" with 1 untopped cola and several side branches. The buds were long, thick and heavy. It wasn't the most dense layer of trichomes, but they were heavy and produced the highest percentage of rosin of anything I've grown. Nice, buttery rosin. It has a very nice, even, laid back, behind the eyes, overall body high, that drifts you into bed with an extra toke or two. It's in my nighttime rotation right now with Serroquel and a Wedding Cake bagseed that I took to the dark side this run.

I'm finding the sensi star v1 x puckbc2 to be really promising plants. Have 2 flowering now.. they stretched more than I expected (2x?) and really bushed out nicely. I was expecting squat indicas so the bushyness and stretch was a nice surprise. Lemony funky stem rubs. Looking like they will be very nice yielders.

I may be wrong bu
For some reason I thought bob got the NL1 from Kagyu

All puck bc3’s except for 1 Hollywood Hairband. Been keeping em small in 1 gallon pots for a while and just up-potted this last week. Gonna bush a little more to get some nice cuts and then buckle up for blast off!

He said he got it from Kagyu in a few of his interviews. He has 5-6 interviews that I’ve seen over on YouTube.
Had a very interesting germination experience with my NL1/Tom Hill Haze. I popped the whole pack of 14. A few days later I noticed one of the seeds made a set of twins. I was able to separate them and put them into their own plugs successfully. The next morning I come out and there was a set of triplets! That’s gotta be some kind of record 17/14 germination rate is 121% All plants have been separated. Just for notes and keeping track I’m labeling them 13A 13B 13C etc so I can see if there is any phenotype variation or if the twins/triplets are identical to each other.
I also just threw my Puck BC3’s into flower. I’m going to use those males for some projects. The growth is very uniform. My row of pucks could be mistaken for a row of clones. Excited to see how they turn out.

A small branch of Sensi Star x Puck HP BC 1 snapped on my plant at day 57 so I snipped it off and will use it as a test smoke in a few days (plants at day 61 now). Here are a couple pics of the tent- I flowered in 1 gallons with zero training to fit the 8 females I popped for a phenohunt. I dont think I fed them enough nutrients often enough as they are yellowing quite a bit. I hope to chop them down between 65 and 70 days, they are limping to the finish line.
I should also mention I have mature seeds in a few of the plants. I'm not sure if this was the result of me not getting the males out fast enough ( I got them out within 2 weeks after the start of 12/12 light schedule). Or maybe it was the result of a hermaphrodite caused by environmental stresses. I hear these genetics are very strong and I am a novice grower so I put the blame on me. I am certain I don't have light leaks but maybe one of the pins on my timer is off or something.
One last thing- has anyone ever stressed a plant and caused it to herm because of too much pruning after the switch to 12/12? I am asking because on around day 20, I snipped off completely lower branched from the main stalk to lolipop. In retrospect maybe I should have kept the branches connected to the stalk and just removed the leaves and bud sites. Anyway, just trying to rack my brain. I am hoping even though there are some seeds there won't be so many and it will still be some good smoke. On to the pics:

The top of this next one is a way different shape than all the others, pretty cool...

Looks good man. I had some lower balls on my 2 of this cross, so there is definitely some instability present. Im wondering if the puck bc2 males had an instable one in the mix.. saw a puck bc3 report on overgrow with males throwing female hairs.
