To Barney's Farm & Pineapple Chunk haters

Beansly

RIU Bulldog
I decided a while back to grow pineapple chunk. Idk why. I have no affiliations or endorsements with BF, this strain just caught my eye for some reason. So of course I ordered it before doing research on it, and man was I depressed. All the information out there on the P.Chunk is that Derry's description is all wrong that it's not an indica dom., the bud are too light and airy and plant stretches WAAAAY too much (which actually is true), and so on. Even the pictures you find of the chunk on riu or online google searches is kinda sad.

Well I didn't like the answers I was getting so I kept looking. Finally I found a site with someone who grew P.Chunk to beautiful fruition. Heres the pics of his/her grow

Note: This isn't my grow nor do I claim it to be. I didn't ask to use these pictures and if the owner ever reads or finds out about this, I hope they take it the way I meant it to be. With much respect. Thanks.

But the bad results from these genetics? I blame that all on bad gardening and poor growers. I mean, you can't buy one seed of a specific strain and expect that one seed to represent everything the plant is. It's the reason breeders sell 10 packs. Cause even they know that out of 10 you might get two or three or more phenos! I mean, peope who are buying pick-and-mix or single seeds are really doing themselves a disservice. I know a lot of growers that claim to have grown every popular strain there is but few of them have grown any one strain long enough to get the best out of it.

So true. I'll be growing Barney's LSD (5 fem) along withCople of others. I'm hoping for a couple phenos( 1 with a little sativa influence) . A decent yield would be nice. I've seen a couple of journals where this strain takes alittle longer than described. But thats okay as long as it is premium meds. Peace, jethead

yea, you have to grow out a 10 pack or more to find a keeper usually. When i grow out my freebies from the 'tude, i kind of feel like im playing a lottery that i always win at. even though i might not get a keeper pheno, i did get some smoke!. so far, i have found one keeper pheno from my freebies that i have gotten. i have a kannabia big band that is a huge yielder that develops a rich terpin profile of bubble gum flavor and aroma, just covered in sugar crystals.

The rest of my freebies havn't been worth taking another clone of so they just grow out of my rotation.
