Let the fun begin.

Stuck the 2 males in the bloom room. Half week behind the females. Took a single cut of the 2 males on the 13th. Both are rooted , transplanted and topped already. Living in the momma tent.

Day 47 from seed.

Day 5 flower. Turfed 3 of the flowering plants TH Seeds Stracciatella, my homemade Gelato Cake X Black Dog and C99#12 female. Still got a clone rooting of the 3 females turfed.


RIP TH Seeds-Stracciatella


Didn't need it as a space filler and didn't feel like growing a cabbage. See how the clone does in veg.................slight chance it gets flowered in the future.



RIP Gelato Cake X Black Dog


Pretty nice plant. Probably give it a go in the future



RIP C99#12-Female


Finicky growing plant. Got a clone just in case.



All C99 Bloom Room including the 2 C99 males.

Day 52 from seed.

Day 10 of flower. Fed yesterday 1250 [email protected] PH. DLI-30ish. The 2 males in the bloom room are nutting up pretty quick for 7 days in. Will have to move them somewhere safer fairly soon.



Clones I took on the 21st were all showing roots by the 28th. They are all all transplanted to pots. Fed clones 700 [email protected] PH. DLI-20ish. All the C99 males and females rooted fast. Lots of roots within a week in rockwool.

Day 57 from seed.

Day 15 of bloom.

Feed them later today and give them a good look over for herms.

Day 62 from seed.

Day 20 of flower. Grow is over.

Seen it coming a week ago or so. My hermdar picked up some weirdness. 9 out of 9 hermie confirmed today. Whacked them all down. They weren't really smelling that great anyway. Got other stuff, I can stick in the bloom room. Big waste of time none the less.

Sent Grimm an email letting them know what happened. They replied promptly and with courtesy. Buddy who bought me the seeds is gutted. Waste of 200 bucks.


Edit: Even though I never asked for refund or replacements. Grimm offered to replace the seeds with anything, but couldn't refund. As seeds weren't bought directly from them and Attitude isn't an authorized retailer. I told Grimm no thanks on the seeds. Also told them all I was doing was letting them know my experience and didn't ask a thing from them.


Also sent Attitude an email. It's off hours and the weekend. So no response yet. Just like Grimm. All I sent Attitude was my experience. No demands or expectations.

As you can see in post #26 hermie pic. This is typical of the hermie issues on all 9 female plants. All 9 female and both males grew flower clusters at the base of the nodes. Where a single bract should be. This is where all plants hermied. I will attach a few pics of the males. I pulled off the flower clusters on the bottom node off both males. Found female bits inside. 11/11 hermie.

Attitude got back to me. They are handling this the best they can considering the nature of the business in the UK. Attitude has been reliable and good over the years.

Damn, that sucks.

Were the seeds from Brothers Grimm (via Attitude Seed Bank) in their original packaging? Or is there a chance you didn't receive authentic c99?

Well this absolutely sucks.

Grimm gifted me a pack of C99 XX. 8/8 germ. Had to de shell 2 of them. 1 of them self topped at node 2. The other was slow and mutated. Killed both. Flowering starts tomorrow. 4/20. Pic top to bottom, left and right rows are the 6-C99 XX. Middle plant is a Grimm Truffles. Front center a Super Lemon Haze and back center a Blimburn C99. These 2 are from last grow. Getting a round 2 chance. Last grow a pack of TH Seeds Bubblegum, Blimburn C99 and Green House Super Lemon Haze. Bubblegum was bunk. Bad germ rates, mutants and a hermie. Blimburn one nice C99 and Green House a couple nice Super Lemon Haze and 1 hermie. Odd only 1 Super Lemon Haze was lemony. Lucky it was the nicest.

Fed 1150 ppm. 80/20 Bloom to Veg ratio. Grimm Truffles and the Super Lemon Haze clone abit less.




A pic of last grow. Week 8ish.

4 Super Lemon Haze
3 Blimburn C99
1 TH Seeds Bubblegum



Try to match the plant strain to pic.

End of week 1.
End of week 1. Fed again yesterday 1200 ppm. Grimm Truffles and Super Lemon Haze 1100 ppm. PH 6.5. 600 PARish.

6-C99 XX in the left and right rows. Grimm Truffles in the middle. Front center a Super Lemon Haze and back center a Blimburn C99.

About 3 and half weeks in. Between weeks 2 and 3 many power outages and mandatory evacuation because of wildfires. Had to turn the light way down and had a friend keep the veg and bloom crop alive. 3 or 4 visits during evacuation by a friend. Saved the day. Back home now and things dialed back up. Checked everything over for herms. Everything looks ok so far.



Started some beans.

7-Red Hot Cookies
3-MAC 1
1-Lots of Zittlles
1-Moonshine Ghost Train Haze

Sam the Skunkman old GN freebies
In the containers. See what happens fairly old beans. 15 years? Paper towel with a light hydrogen peroxide water mix. Be surprised if any pop.

5-OH X Skunk1
5-TH X Skunk1
10-Mixed X Haze/Skunk1

They look good . I've done both the original C99 and the present version . They're not the same but the new one is no slouch .

Did you ever run Moscas? I have some fems from him I need to run. The rumor was it was a reverse of the original.

No just the two from Brothers Grimm . The original C99 I did from gifted clones so I only had the one phenotype , it was a great plant. Easy to grow and made you want to clean the garage type high . I ran that one indoors .

The present iteration my buddy and I did outdoors and it also was an easy plant without much variation in the 20 females we got . Not as racey but we did let it go to the very end . Good smoke though .

I ran a pack of Female Seeds C-99, got a grapefruit, pineapple and mango/juicy fruit pheno. The high had some paranoia to it. But it was clear, creative and energizing.
