Males that take longer to flower typically pass on the drug traits we’re looking for to their offspring.
Males that show their balls off right away are typically not worth breeding with.

Even though I have more seeds than I’ll ever need, I’m still eyeing Dariens Gap, and Beatrix Choice.

I hadn't heard that before about the males. Interesting though

Id also look for strong secondary branching structure, narrowest of leaves. Also remember many times the MALES, will be the best looking, fastest growing plants.

Also depends on if one is looking for a more Sativa Pheno, or the Triangle Kush???? It says 63 days flowering. The longer flowering, the more likely leaning towards Sativa, but isnt a sure thing. I believe the male in this cross, is TK Dominant but there will be variation..... Not sure, but I think male is more TK dominant.. More NL5/Haze-Sativa leaning will probably also produce more.

I'm looking for more of a Sativa leaning plant out of these. I'd like to have a good sativa in my head stash, something a little different. Thanks for all the great info!

I moved to Alaska in 83 and started smoking pot then and there one week later. :lol:
Weed was $10 a gram through out the 80's, which was very expensive compared to the dime bags in
Bako, Cali, but you didnt find anything but quality for sale, no brick weed, Alaskans pride themselves for having the best weed in the world.
It seems everyone has finally caught up.
Great weed was imported here from Hawaii, Washington, Oregon, Northern California, Thailand and some excellent shit was grown in the "valley" or anything that kicked ass was called MTF to sell it.
Lots of drugs and big wads of money back in the boomer - pipeline years in the Ak.

Here's the Americanna.
After hanging a couple of weeks, the
campho phenique smell has changed over to citrus.
She now reminds me of a bag of rotten oranges, minus the moldy smells.
This one is dense, and she is extremely rot prone, the bx might have similar issues.
This one is lightly seeded from a brief encounter with a Mac Stomper male.

I made a mistake about possibly saying the AKBB TK/NL5/Hz may be male dominate. He does have 4 selections. tk/NL5/Hz F1- TK/Dom- F1????-NL5 Dom- F1???? or Hz Dom-F1????, though Im sure theres still variation.

Connoisseur Genetics Swiss Thai/Nevils Haze x OGK x Orgnkid Chembx2 male is OG Kush Dom. I got the Triangle, and OG confused.
Connoisseur has some killer Haze Hybrids.

Pretty sure the TK/NL5Haze (TK/NL/Haze) dominant lines are F3. He has F2s as well if you want to hunt for yourself.. bought a few packs last year but have been running crosses instead.

Those are really nice looking plants. Great Secondary branching structure. To bad you cant bend them over, and train all the secondary branching to grow towards the light(s).
Keeping the growing tip, bending them over, not mucking with the growing tip, and pulling them over from about 10%-20% from the growing tip and letting it keep producing secondary growth from veg- flowering, and after a point the plant will not need to mucked with, and all secondary growth will not have to be trained to grow Vertically anymore, and the plant wont need to be bent over anymore.

Looks to me like those stems are very stiff though, and may not be suitable for bending. Many plants will snap like a pencil, and those types would have to be started very early, before the stiffen up.

But I know people like to do what they do. Just a thought.

Those are nice structured plants though. Like many of the AKBB strains seem to have good/strong secondary branching, and as I remember many of the older 80s, and 90s genetics.

Beautiful plants though. Green all the way down.

Thanks. I really dig the strong structure of these plants and agree; they would've been well-suited to some early 'low stress' training. Very thick and hollow stems, such a contrast to the weak and flimsy structures of many modern polyhybrids.
I do like to top new (to me) cultivars to see how they respond to stress and I find the main tip makes the perfect cutting. I used to take 3 cuttings from the lowers of each plant before flowering but find that the single, thick-stemmed top roots more quickly and reliably.
Once the plants reach their final pots they are trained into individual screens which works well for maximising the number of bud sites and yield, but I do miss seeing the character of a naturally-formed plant, especially when they have great structure.

Anyone ever get a solid answer on the difference between his f2, f3, and breeder packs are? Specifically the TKNL5Haze and the Black Domina? I got a few of the breeder packs through him and I dunno what those classify as at this point...

I've been skeptical for awhile now and have saved a lot of posts here and on instagram that contradict each other. I'm sure he's got some good stuff, but it's hard to not look at some of this without some skepticism. And with all the gungho userps singing the praises then up and disappear, i'm suspecting the Clintons might be involved somehow haha... i started some more TLNL5HAZE and we'll see how it goes. But everything from AKBB except Black Velvet i've ran so far has hermied on me, while all other breeder's gear is outstanding. I did give some Hawaiian catpiss v3 to a friend to run and he had no issues that i know of.

My 8 Dopebeards are in the Jar now. I had 7 herm, one REAL bad. I've kept 3 two that were very nice other than a few nanners. I was going to dump the one that didn't herm because she stretched more than the rest and couldn't hold up her buds. However being the best producer over all and no nanners made me keep her at least for now. I'll admit to giving her a sampling already and will say that with just a 3 weeks dry time she is off to an impressive start. Buds are tight,hard, sticky and GREEZY!

I took the clones when they were already in flower. The female that looked the most like the sssc Durban dad would not come out of flower. She's been rooted for about 7 or 8 weeks now and still in what I'd call semi flower- not quite veg and very hairy. -Got The AXE

I had 3 males two got the axe because they showed sex a week or more before the first female. The third male got the axe for auto flowering and pollinating my gooey 13 females. Fucker!

I'm not real happy with the sexual stability of these at all. To be fair though, my no till beds where I grew out the females got pretty dry without me realizing it. These definitely don't do well in dryer soil and I suspect the sssc Durban may not be the most sexually stable. Just my guess but that seems to be the direction these problems are pointing.

My tknl5Haze x Blue Dream aka Blue Meanie has popped a male flower @ 8.5 weeks. Black Velvet seems solid. I have a bunch of akbb gear with the tknl5Haze but will not grow them at this point. Also have some of his Durban and Dopebeard x's that I probably will steer clear of as well. Hope this helps.

Are people finding herms in the Tk/NL5Haze crosses?
I didn't find any in the Tk/NL5Haze f2's.
I found a keeper though.

I gave a pack of the Consumption F2, and Americanna BX to a buddy last week. Dont know if hes started them yet, but if not, he will very soon. Actually I give him all my seeds for storage, as I myself dont keep anything in possession personally. If I use the connotation I am growing, its not actually me, but is what I know is up, or is going on to my knowledge someplace, or has gone on.

I spoke with him earlier, hes not started any of them yet, and told him the TK/NL5/Haze with grow more after flip to flowering than the AmericannaBX, so he may grow the TK/NL5/Haze F2 instead. I know the Consumption F2 can get big, quickly, which is what Im/my buddy is looking for.
Now will probably be Consumption F2, and TK/NL5/Haze.

They definitely grow fast! These 4 Dariens Gap on the left have exploded in the last few days :bigjoint:
20201217_124752.jpg

PHK is a slow and steady grower. Hasn't really shown any growth explosions, just very methodical. Good for me, because the NL1/Big Skunk came out of gate wide open and ate all her nutrients up before I reacted. PHK was my canary in the mine.
20201217_130349.jpg

Here is the big hungry nl1/bs She ate through her whole pot in record time :lol: Came in with nutrients a little late, but she seems to be recovering. Had a few leaves turning yellow and dropping off, haven't seen that progress anymore. Fingers crossed she makes it to the finish, new years will be 8 weeks in flower.

As I stated before I've had them with the dope beards. Another thing I want to mention as I'm thinking about the grow is I was also feeding pretty heavy so that may also be a factor. I'm running a few clones of a couple of my dope beards and was thinking about what I wanted to do different and had a light bulb moment. Just something to think about

What is your favorite old school mind warping highs?
I remember smoking Thai a few times as a teenager, in Ak, mid 80's and it being a bit like acid.
It always seemed certain strains would cause me to have flashbacks back in my early days.

My dad would get Mexican weed back in those days, that wasn't all bricked up, in California.
That stuff would fuck you up if you smoked too much.
It was like puff, puff that is nice, puff puff things are real nice, puff puff I can't stop laughing, puff my heart is racing and I look funny, puff these mother fuckers are laughing at me, puff I got to go and be alone, I'm so fucking high and I don't like it!
It was great in moderation though.
Click to expand...
This is exactly the buzz I remember! I started getting high in 1980 here in Michigan. We had a lot of migrant workers in our area and mexican weed wasn't all that hard to find even for a 13 year old. You described that buzz to at TEE!
