but, to quote an old commercial:

"where's the beef?"

this is why i binned mine.. super dank, no hermie issues, but she just don't put out enough to keep in the garden.. i got maybe an ounce of bud under 400 watts of light and a good 6 week or so veg time on her...
not enough to keep her around my garden for sure..

DAAAAMN......did you harvest the whole plant at once? I plan on just harvesting the top buds and letting the lower bud sites go an extra 2-3 weeks for more weight...I started doing this on my last grow and those lower bud sites really develop well once they get light on them I'd say by doing this on my OG kush grow last time i got an extra 1-1/2 to 2 oz....But yeah I will NOT be growing this strain again either it sucks ass to be paranoid everyday and spend money on expensive nutes only to get 2-3 zips off of one plant

lmao, the whole plant was pretty much one top cola and not much in the way of lower nugs that i could have left behind to allow them to mature later, lol..
i'm sure if i would have done some lst / supercropping / training on it, i would have bettered my yield, but i through this one bean in last minute to assure that i had one more female in my grow, so i didn't really do all the work on the bubba that i did on the rest of the crop..

Cool cool I did use Uncle Ben's topping method on her. Thats probably why I have like a whole nother plants worth of lower bud sites haha. was your main cola skinny like mine or did it have weight?

yah, mine looked a lot like yours, which is why the where's the beef comment made me lol hard as i thought the same thing with my plant... super frosty, and very dank smoke, no hermie's or anything like that, just poo poo in the yield dpt, and after idk, a month and a half of veg and say 2 plus months of flower time, i can't be getting no ounce in return, even though i only grow for personal smoke and all..

Holy shit.

I guess I won't be growing mine then. What about Immortal's version? I have that too.

i've had them for ages too airwave, i've had them and the headband bx for ages now, but i've yet to crack anything from them tbh...

the cali con version is dank, and like i said, with some more training or w/e done to her, i'm sure she would have produced better, and i only planted one bean of her, so who know's, maybe i got the crappy yielding but potent phen, lol..
i wouldn't write them off completely, i know wbw had good smoke from his as well, and i think he even got a somewhat better yield out of his as well..

If they are all like that (1 ounce after 6 week veg), then it doesn't matter what you do to it. LST, topping, scrog, whatever. Nothing you do is gong to give enough of a yield to make it worth your while.

But now you mention that you only popped a single seed, I'm inclined to believe that it was just a bad pheno.

yah, i'm pretty sure like i said that wyteberrywidow got a better yield than i did from his plant(s), and he also had no issues with it during the grow that i remember..
on the other hand, another friend of mine, cmt1984 said that his wasn't very potent either, which i don't know what happened there, just going by what he had to say about his grow of it..
i'd give it a grow at least, it's surely worth a grow imo, just make sure that you plant something else along with it in case you don't get a big yield like what i experienced would be my suggestion..

i have ton's of beans, so i usually only grow a few of each during each grow to try and find that one strain that checks all of the boxes for me, so sometimes i don't get exactly the best results as i have a very limited gene pool at times if you know what i mean..
i'm sure if i were to stck to one strain for a couple of grows, i'd get better results, but that's not how i roll, lol..

Airwave do you have fem or regular seeds? is yours the Pre-98 or the pre-98 BX2? if its fem seeds watch out for hermies I was growing two at first but one hermied badly on me and i have even found a seed in tester buds of this plant here that I snipped a few days ago.....with that being said I wouldn't write them off just yet either go ahead and pop your bean and let us know what happens

man, idk, but i've always thought i have shit for luck, but so far all of the fem'ed beans i've ever grown, i've yet to ever get hermie one, and my grow area is far from light proof..
but i have been hearing a lot more stories about cali con's fem gear going hermie on people around here the last month or so..

Ok I think you should just grow it out man I actually only let that plant veg for 3 weeks in DWC and I topped at the 3rd node at about 10 days and it has tons of bud sites at the bottom that cant any light if you top and prune you could get a nice amount I am going to let my lower bud sites continue after I chop the top half
