I was just saying that today to my gf. I'll post some tomorrow. The buds have swelled up nice so far. The main cola of both the Crimea and LA are FAT! ... my opinion though.. I don't think that LST is the best way to grow crimea... It seems to have the potental for a huge main cola. With the lst i did i have a fat top but alot of that energy went to the other bud sites ( which are still pretty nice). doesn't smell very much at all. rubbing the stem you get your basic blueberry scent. the LA. different more skunky scent. My next journal will be of the Cream Caramel seeds i have vegging. They smell fucking fantastic!! very sweet, citrus smell that i can just tell is going to get better once i flower them.. But thanks for keeping up man!!!! I'll have some pics for ya in the morning.
How about you don??? what's up with your pics? got any yet??:bigjoint:
If you haven't grown em yet. The Crimea seem to be light feeders. imo. I think i underfed them a bit actually but the leaves on them come out very thin and light. I could only imagine that if i fed alot more than i did they would burn easy. just my opinion though

Cool I cant wait to see the pics. Dang man I wish I can do pics I tried a few times and idk I have fire fox I use to have windows which was easy but this system is crazy and Im really not that computer savvy. Mine are about 6 weeks old now there are nice:hump:. Hey I had a problem with mine they were drooping so I had to feed them more they love water and nutes ALOT. There bushy too. Good luck and I'll be looking foward to that crimea blue grow and the rest. Have you ever smoked that CB before?

yeah mine take up alot of water .. as far as nutes, like i said .. i think i was underfeeding. I'm still using more N during flowering than P to keep the leaves from dropping and yellowing. And yes mine are very bushy. Are you letting them grow or are you using any methods? lst, fim, topping?
I haven't smoked Crimea before, We don't get much of anything good around herer. However. I tried Barney's Blue Cheese this past week and the blueberry taste in that was VERY NICE. Didn't have much of a smell. and not a strong blueberry flavor mixed with a sour taste.. but i hope i get some good blueberry phenos in the Crimea. I can't wait till it's done. Still have about another month before it's done but it's coming along. I'll post pics in a few. I just gave my strongest one a small flush. It didn't seem to have any buildup really but they haven't been flushed in about two months. figured i'd do it now so i didn't end up having lockout, or calmag problems like my last grow.

about a month or so into flowering. so i guess we're halfway?? seems like it's further than that. These are just some snapshots my gf took of my tent. I'll post some pics of the whole set up soon. Just figured I'd share the pics of one of the crimea and LA. I wish i had vegged the LA out a little more. or had enough lights for the undergrowth. Anyways if anyones watching. Hope ya enjoy:leaf:

Thanks again guys! the pics are labeled at the bottom. the first and last are LA. the two middle are Crimea. you can see on the LA it got a bit burned from the light hitting the leaves. This is the thing i hate about flowering with cfls. I've singed a few hairs here and there. but i would say that LST or scrog make it easier to work with the cfls. I'll post some more pics soon!!

O I did not see the name on the side cool job man that CB looks nice. Hey how is the smell of the CB, is it stanky? Or light smelling I have a lemon skunk and CB and the lemon skunk is no joke compare top CB but the CB smells good still, but there are in vegg still so idk if they smell to much during vegg. Good luck bro

ok .... so i took a bunch of pics while i watered today ... I didn't label any of them but they are all of the three different plants of crimea. I didn't realize i only took one of my LA woman. I'll post more pics soon. I believe i flowered on March 15 or so. So we're about a month and some change into flowering .... the single bud pics are of the plant with the best genetics. You'll also see one is very green. I gave it too much N so it's lagging behind a bit and is still green and young looking. The other you can see didn't get enough N in veg or flowering and is yellowing early. Then the my best is labled. It has some yellowing but has nice big healthy buds that seem more advanced then the rest
My night time humidity is getting high at times. ALMOST 80 PERCENT:finger:. but it's leveling out a little more now .. to at least 60 maybe a bit more .. Daytime is good 30-50 percent. Temps are good hovering anywhere from low 70's to 80 at most.
It has a dank smell which is worrying me because i worried about mold. But i've inspected and haven't seen any yet. But sticking my nose to the bud i realize the smell smells more like fresh blueberrys. I bit blueberry like but more like fresh picked under ripe blueberrys. Also has a bit of a citrus scent too. I'm sure the blueberry smell will come out more during drying and curing. Anyways sorry for not labeling them all .. but here's how it goes so far.:leaf:
JUST WISH I HAD A HPS!!!!:wall:

got alot of great fucking strains to work with there! I debated on getting the sharksbreath and the rocklock for this grow but figured I'd try and do something a bit more different. People aren't used to any exotic strains around here. It's all BC's. I figured I'd try something fruity along with the L.A. Woman. Can't wait to start my new journal with my Cream Caramel and Crimea and LA clones i took. can't wait to see how the CB comes out without the LST.

Yea bro. They were fem seeds. I've had no problems whatsoever with how they're growing. They stayed healthy for the most part. I stressed them a it in flowering too. I'm don't have much experience under my belt. But they seem like an easy plant to grow. I vegged them for two months The only thing i wish i had done different was had better and/or more lighting. They have an enormous main cola from what it seems.

Well... I clipped my first Crimea today. The trichs were almost 50 percent amber at this point. YIKES. I just flushed her 5 days ago and you could see the plant had peaked out at this point. A few more days may not have hurt. But i didn't want any THC to start degrading.
Bear with me. It's only my second grow. But i'm POSITIVE IT WAS READY. and a week and half earlier than the rest.
I promised myself i was going to go for at least 36 hours of darkness before I clipped but the humidity is a little high right now, so i took the safe route and figured I'd try it with the other plants.

NOW .. i didn't post that about 4 days ago a branch had started to break off due to the weight of the cola. So i took a sample. I dried it in a card board box with holes in the bottom for air flow. I'm not that experienced. But I'd imagine bud dries quicker when growing with cfls??? Beings it's less dense?=
ANYWAYS.. i let it stay somewhat moist. the main stem was bendable still but the bud itself was getting crispier, and i don't want my buds crackling like a few plants in my first grow
LONG STORY SHORT.... TOO LATE...
I tried her out yesterday. Rolled a J. The smoke was harsh. didn't have a distinct flavor or smell really... except of hints of hash and a bit of bluberry. Put the bud to cure in the jar for a day. Rolled another before work. Smoke took on more of a flavor. Alot spicer .. very distinct herbal tea flavor subtle BLUE hashy flavor. Kept it cure in my medicine bottle for about 12 more hours while working. The smell is getting stronger now. Like i said a very herbal blueberry smell but its coming on stronger by the hour ... the taste of the last J. herbal still but the taste of pine is showing through now ... and like they say has lemon, peppery undertones. the exhale stays around for a bit with a nice hashy flavor.
Fucking unique so far!!!!! at least for me! has a dark bluish color in the dry. covered in crystals, sticky as fuck i'm curious to see how the other phenos come out in the other CB!!
I still haven't told you about the high so far... but i won't get ahead of myself... I have about one more J left until I dry and cure the buds I clipped today.

Tomorrow I'll post pics to show ya what the hell is going on. I'm excited. Good ganja for me finally!!!!!!!!!

Cool cant wait to see how the pics and smoke is of that CB. How long did you flower for?
Click to expand...
it advanced WAY quicker than the rest of my cb. it was ripe in about 6 and a half weeks I'm not quite sure why it came along so much quicker but it had the best genes out of all the crimea .. the rest will take at least 8 to 9 it seems. maybe eight, which is the estimated time for them.
