female seeds are a reputable company and when they say 7-8 weeks ,i think you can pull any time between that and it will be good.Is there going to be much difference between a day 52 and a 56?? .. its only 4 days..

i even emailed female seeds about it and asked whether taking it to 60 days would add anything and they replied quite simply ,we advise you to go to 7-8 weeks..
Ya I dont see what 4 days could do.

Lol I hadn't even done the math on it. I've read everywhere that C99 is supposed to only take like 6-8 weeks(depending on pheno). So honestly if you don't count your days until you start seeing flowers(like your supposed to) I'd be watching the plant at any point after about 42 days. Heck 52 might be perfect who knows, it will all depend on that plant inparticular.

As far as seeing trichs I find it very hard to do on the plant, I always pull a little bud to look at. I also use a small magnifier I got from radio shack which has a little light on it. It magnifies like 30x to 60x I think. I usually use it somewhere in between. Once I get a couple harvests with a strain I don't even bother checking any more, I just pull it when I think its good. I've tried running some longer or shorter, and didn't honestly notice much differance in yield or quality. This makes me think I've got my window about right.

Maybe all the c99 growers can harvest on different days and compare. Just need Adam & Cola to get his journal up and going. By the way... Puff have you seen any pre flowers yet?

The big question is?
Which one would you reveg and take clones from?
The monster one that smells more like dank?
The fruity one that produces well?
The super frosty one that doesnt smell like weed?
The one with very very thin fan leaves that for sure is totally sativa?

Hmm well I have never smoked c99 so I dont know. Im hoping I have the pineapple pheno just cause it sounds cool. Someone on here said it looks like I have the pineapple and the fruit punch pheno. I dont know if I will grow c99 next. I want to try a couple different strains before I pick my favorite. I do want to stick with quick flowering plants cause of the extra scrog time though. Id like to be able to have two strains I could scrog together that flowered the same. Have you smoked all these Chesus?

I dont grow so I wouldnt know what C99 looks and smells like. I just try to imagine what plants 7 weeks along would be like. 3 foot tall and all frosty and shit. A man can dream cant he?

There does seem to be a few of them going around huh? Thanks I'm happy with them right now:) I know what you mean about reading your plants but thats the thing with these c99's. Your supposed to harvest at 52 days to get that c99 trippy head high people talk about even though they dont seem done. If you wait they loose that and just turn into a ''just ok'' indica high. Trust me I love pictures so yall will see them and help me decide when to pull em lol..
the reason this is happening is because people arent growing the ''real'' c99, most of these seedbanks selling it do not have access to grim bros. old stock, maybe some f2's or 3's, but highly unlikley its original c99 from seed, maybe a clone...just my 2

I agree with you but unfortunately this is true for most strains. Female Seeds supposedly has Grimm in them but who knows how much.

Thats what I was gonna say. Female Seeds claims these genetics come from bros grimm stock that was back crossed to each other. I suppose as with anything there is always a level question though. Heres the description " This new batch is a cross of two exceptional basic pheno types, the Grapefruit and the Pineapple. Both derived from the original Brothers Grimm C99".

Mine is just barely an inch tall, so I won't be able to compare it with you guys immiidiately but eventually. I'm confident she is gonna live, and it looks strange it seems it is growing two growth shoots right out of the first set of leaves. I didn't top it or anything like that just how its growing. MIght be the ultimate mother plant!!

I worry about any strain that is not clone only. I knew when I bought these that they might not be exactly like the originals but close enough is good enough for me:) I have no access to clones here in TX so I have to trust what they say.

You have a new journal for your c99?

Nope, once she is up and running I'll drop some posts on your guys threads or maybe in my old journal.

I"m toying with a bunch of new strains seeing what runs well in my system, and what seems like a good pheno. I actually just put another Cindy seed in tonight. I was in water the last 24 hours, and I put it in some peat this evening. My last one started real slow, and had a few issues, I believe I figured out what they were, so I fixed them and wanted to try to jump start another bean. Can rarely have to many.

Slow and these Cindy's seem to be a common thing lol. If you don't start a journal feel free to post up some pics:)

Well the lights came on and after 6 hours of darkness they grew a lot. Might not take 2 weeks to fill the screen:) I bumped up the light to 600w just to see what they will do.

Thanks, I didn't figure you'd mind. I thought I lost it man, it just wasn't doing anything for like 2 weeks after it popped, and then it finally started to get a little bigger. I saw the weird center growth and thought I had a mutant without a main growth(happened on a sativa I sprouted recently) sprout. Then I realized it looks like its growing 2 so we'll see. I gave a buddy of mine one of my cindy seeds to spread the genetics, cus he has shared his with me before. His seed sprouted 2 seedlings, not sure how but I guess one died when he tried to seperate them.

I love the point when they really start to take off and you can watch the growth every day, almost as it happens.
