sure does...

yeah, there seems to be a good bit of debate over who's strain this is, as it seems to be exatly the same as quazar or w/e.

its the real estate in the tent for a 20+ week strain, id dearly love to try it, maybe it needs crossing with ruderalis lmfao

^^^ hehe, it's got a spot in the corner of my small cabinet i really don't trust barney's though, quaze needs to put some up on seedbay or something imho

nah i know what you mean, i jokingly refer to them as barneys bollock factory...

just by reading the first page...nothing seems look odd on the strain, it just looked like a pure sativa strain...i am actually growing a few land races from the south-east myself, and its been flowering for 2 mos now and yet to finish in a couple more months. its lanky, not big buds only few small buds per nodes

i just got back from amsterdam and i was able to try the dr. grinspoon. its got a nice uplifting high but i wouldnt mark potency more than 7 out of 10. barney's farm has way better straiins than grinspoon i think. their cherry berry is amazing.

Okay, 13 weeks in flower and a couple days in darkness, and I'm ready to trim. This plant was grown from a clone I took from a seed I obtained through Barney's (original packaging) via Attitude. See my earlier post for that story. This was grown using Advanced Nutrients Grand Master formula (which I am not biased towards or against), under a 1000W HPS, but not directly under the light, still receiving ample canopy though. I tie down all my branches so height is no issue, although I can see how if you grew her straight up she could get 10+ feet. I had no serious nute issues or deficiencies - the yellow leaves in the pic are because this plant has been thoroughly flushed. The smell is like flowery butter. I don't particularly like this smell, during flowering the smell was so rich it was almost nauseating, but I don't like any floral smell. Other people thought the plant smelled great. There is heavy crystal build up over the entire plant (my crappy camera does not do it justice at all), although there is no density whatsoever in the buds. The buds are made up of little fingers of tiny bracts (calyxs), that when you look at close up, looks exactly like the Quaze/Grinspoon pics online, but the scale is much tinier than I expected. All those pics are extreme close ups, and I would compare it's growth pattern to Arjans Ultrahaze 1, although the Arjan's is much more dense.

Here's the whole plant


here's a close up


and here's one with my thumb so you can see just how tiny and loose the bracts are


This was grown legally! Smoke report in a couple weeks...

Im very interested in this plant as well.
Nice job Poker, I was expecting the little balls everywhere like the breeder pic... but atleast you were able to put up some pics of the strain. + rep

Also that quaze slideshow has the exact same lookin pics as on attitudes website..

that plant looks like it can go a lil longer imo

I agree.... looks like it had a good bit more potential.... I'm more intrigued now than ever

i had a friend grow out some beans he got out of lowryder #2 auto's that went like that honest he grew em out for over half a year they were 6ft n more but the bud was exactly like that wispy as shit and not much to it, crystally ish but no density. ill see if i can get some pics off him at some point.

^^^ crazy, from a lowryder #2 grow? did he mix it with anything or were they just straight lowryder #2?

straight lowryder. honestly we couldnt believe it these monsters were straight sativa couple of different pheno's but def satty.

If I didn't grow this myself, I would say it was under nuted, immature, or the room had a light leak, but none of the above. If my camera was better, I could get close ups that look like the catalog pic with fully mature loose bracts. I was frankly disappointed until I smoked it. The high is soaring and up with zero body buzz or couchlock. A great high for sure, but it has no bag appeal unless you know what it is, and even though it's potency is in league with modern hybrid strains, it doesn't rise above the status quo making the length of time to grow not worth the space. Dry I got 2 1/2 oz, so the yield can be decent with proper bending/topping. I'm glad I grew it, but im not sad I didn't make clones.

I have one started... only about 4 inches tall, but I'll post pics as she grows. Wish me luck!

iv got a Dr.grinspoon iv got weekly pictures i just cant find out how to put in on the computer
can i take a pic with my cell phone and send it to an another email account?

growing grinspoon among others now...the seedling just broke ground a few days ago, now has first set of leaves. The link to the journal is in my sig, there will be pics later, when the plant is bigger.

Agreed, but thanks poker for posting pics. I've been curious about this one for a while. poker909, did you look at those nugs under a scope? I mean if you did that's one thing, but if you pulled em at 13 weeks, that's early according to the breeder's flower time, and it just looks immature.

heres some pictures that i just took. 2 months and 20 days from grownd break
