Chernobyl - Phenotype searching

T Ray · Feb 14, 2012

Here is some of my favorite shots of my Chernobyl. One of my go to smokes ATM. I got the lankier sativa, spear throwing, big stretch pheno that had a strong lime smell with a nice funk and tons of trich's.

You could say I am a fan of Chernobyl.

Love the last shot bro just classic TGA Resin Tacos, extra long
You could seriously dry that fan leaf out and roll a joint out of it!

TRay, have you grown Vortex and if so what are your thoughts comparing the two.

I grew Vortex, loved it and was gonna get another pack but I keep hearing great things about Chernobyl. I could say that about all subs strains though.
Tough decision

T Ray · Feb 18, 2012

BHB,

No I haven't grown Vortex. Being Sub's number 1 recommendation though, has it in my list of strains to try for sure though.

heres one of my chernobyl phenos, i think this one is more jtr dominant or mabye a 50/50 mix.

my other bloodwreck dominant pheno is still a bit away and i havnt pulled her outa the tent yet so no good lighting for my crappy camera, but i will have some pics of her soon too.

Here's a copy of our Green Leaf Lab test results for the Chernobyl phenotype pictured in our earlier posts:

I have grown quite a few agent oranges and they were very hard to keep standing up. Very top heavy. Flower it early. Literally every branch on every plant out of 5-6 were bent over 4 weeks into flowering. Smoke was not worth it. Just being honest. I know it takes alot to introduce a strain into the mixture. Us caregivers commit 4 months and if the turnout doesnt pay off its wasted so I hope your able to make better with it. I flowered early even and then ended 5'6" tall and bent over. I have a method I would recommend to anybody that has spider mites or a plant that does not hold itself up. Hope you dont mind a recommendation all you guys. Its a good trick.

I take a bamboo shoot and then cut it on the top down the middle of the shoot. Normal pair of scissors works. Follow me now.....Take a string and tie it through the slit at the top of the bamboo shoot. Then with the string pull the buds into the bamboo shoot for support. Just keep unraveling and wrap through the bamboo shoot and then to the next bud. By doing this you will accomplish two things. Support all the buds to give them the support to fully mature with full light and since spider mites are competitive by nature they go to the highest point they can climb if you had that issue. You will see all the bugs hanging on the strings and bamboo shoots you can kill them there too. I found that extremely helpful because the mites wont even mess with the plants tops. That is as long as the bamboo is taller then the bud tops. Gives a nice easy support with one bamboo shoot and a bunch of twine.

fantastic idea

That's a beauty!

Im just 4 weeks in with 3 different phenos. One smells like chemicals, another like lime and the other is like fruity baby poop!!! LOL I dont know what any of them would be dominate with. The fisrt 2 are growing the spear colas and the stinky baby poop pheno is shorter and fatter. Any ideas what I have?

GanjaGood! · Nov 17, 2012

Here are a couple of phenos...not far along enough to know yet...but the first one looks more indica in structure, where as the second picture has other pheno in foreground and first pheno in far right corner...amazing that the first one looks two weeks ahead of the others but are from same 6 seed pack (5 girls).....

The first one has musty earthy rotten fruit smell and the others have perky lemon lime smell....

Im only a few weeks in but no mold so far....my room stays at 50% humidity though...

*Bump* The pheno that I have recently got is a little under 5 weeks, and smells like violent lime sherbert! If it was a food, I probably wouldn't eat it.

keifcake · Dec 10, 2012

BAsically what I'm seeing is that the JTR pheno is a lime smell with a 'freshness' to it, totally different than anything I've smelt before. And it doesn't stretch a whole lot when going into flower with foxtailing buds that are SUPER sugar coated making taco leafs everywhere, and the smoke is strong, but super clear and awesome tasting like it's smell??

If so, thats the one Ive been running for a year or so always revegging. I had another one that was less frosty but greener, kinda blue tinted and was more uplifting of a smoke( i kinda preferred it a little better but it didn't make the first reveg). I did make fem seeds from the cross of the two though that I will be starting soon. I also have some S1's of the frosty one, I'd like to see how they turn out as well.

I have been vegging out 10 chernobyl seeds and am about to take cuttings and move them over to the 12/12 tent. All of this information has been really helpful as I'm about to go through and sort the various phenos! Growing up in the bay area trainwreck was always one of the best strains around so I'm dying to finish this run!

4 Main phenos. The JTR phenos are shorter and require a heavier feed. This phenotype will be meatier and give higher yields. Should smell fruity/spicy. The Trinity Trainwreck pheno is the taller and lankier one, especially if it looks viney you know you have it. One hybrid pheno leaning more JTR, and another leaning more Trainwreck. The keeper will give a fuely diesel lemon/lime smell and show some color towards the end as it fades red. It will be the lower yielding plant. I found it was best to veg this plant to a bush topping multiple times to bring up it's yield quite a bit. The smoke is insanely potent and taste is phenomenal. It tastes like it smells.

This one is the one I have that revegges and clones awesomely, it does have a shitty yield, but it's pretty much white because of the frosting is so heavy on it. It's 1 0f my 2 favorite smokes. I have some Chernobyl x Sour AK that seem to be lanky with almost no branching at all, i assume this is trainwreck coming out of it because the Sour Ak definitely wasn't lanky.

Digging this thread up from its peaceful grave...

Great info here about Chernobyl. Thanks to all who contributed! I just picked up 4 Chernobyl clones from Harborside yesterday. They've got super thin sativa-style leaves, so it's looking like I've got a pheno thats going to be on the taller side. I'll try to get some pictures up soon, and maybe start up a grow log.

Anyway, I don't have much to add, but just wanted to say thanks. If anyone has any new Chernobyl pictures, I'm sure we'd all love to see them!

We currently our flowering from seed two very similar pheno. They look to be trainwreck/trinity dominat. The stretch was crazy 2x s plus a lil. They are like 3-4 weeks in have to check notes on that, but even though crazy stretch they are really sturdy an the resin profile is insane. It reaches to the larger sucker fan
n leaves an is coating them. This is my second time runnin this strain the last pheno we had was I guess the JTR ,it was bushy but had the super lime sherbet smell with lil spice. Look forward to seein the finish on these girls. Will post pics soon.

DLOPEZ1420 · Oct 8, 2013
