I apologize for the ignorance in advance but what exactly(fundamentally/physically) happened or did not happen in the process with these flowers to make them look like this(mutated)? Thanks in advance as well, Ty

Bad genetics and overfeeding to the tune of 2500 PPM. I think that was the trick. ;-)

I got the HumCo system all cleaned out with bleach and flushed with tap water. I wiped it dry and will be installing the new drainage system this weekend if everything goes as planned.

Next week I will be starting a new run of Pineapple Kush and I know I can do better than this last run. :eyesmoke:


P.S. - ooops I missed a spot.

Nice clean looking set up right there man!! If you don't mind....Genetics from seed or clone?....If clone, are you getting those genetics or have you been getting the genetics from a collective OR from more of a 'friend/friend of a friend'?

Thx, the grow that I just got done with were 4 clones of Pineapple Kush that came from a mother that was originally a throwaway clone from a dispensary. They performed wonderfully, 22 ounces from 4 plants on a trial run.

The bad genetics that I am showing right now are what my friend just killed. They were clones from a Pre 1998 Bubba Kush mother from seed (from Cali Connection Seedbank) and bad genetics were reported but not believed so my friend pursued in hopes of something special but all he got was frustration and disappointment.

:wall: <----- Lot's of frustration and massive disappointment

Oh man, I hear ya...It's gotta be the very worst to put all that for so long into something that just plain doesn't produce...I REALLY feel for ya/your friend. I've been thinking this was the goal of some of the clone mills...people continue wasting a ton of time and $ for less than decent genetics only because who's going to clone the shit outta something that's supreme...IDK...just what I kind of was thinking...

However, that is just plain sick as phuck!! 22 OZ's from just 4 of the Pineaple Kush!?!?!!! VERY NICE!!!

BTW, I'm prob. going to try some proven Pre 98 bubba kush genetics once I've got a round or 2 of my D-Bubs through...we'll see how these do first.....Sorry, didn't mean to rub it in there about the proven genetics.

Yeah I have to be honest my boy is not all that happy with the situation but at least it reassures him and me that the problem is not him. At least not him alone :finger:, JK.

There is a "clone mill" here in San Diego that has just gotten a terrible rep because of the rudeness/unprofessionalism/ineptitude of one of the salesmen. He is a douche to say the least and has been treated as such.

As for the Pineapple Kush, yeah I am pretty happy with this trial run. Next run will be the real deal, much better quality and if there is more quantity, so be it. :eyesmoke:

Here is the PK:

So two exhaust fans, one through the hood and another through the carbon filter and one intake? Is your intake fan at a lower speed than the exhaust fans?

The exhaust fan for the light is a closed circuit that pulls in fresh air from outside the tent and exhausts it back outside the tent.

The fan hooked up to the carbon filter is the only exhaust fan for the tent. I keep both intake and exhaust on the same speed setting to maintain even pressure on the tent.

Fuck off my thread ya grundle fairy! I didn't follow you around to whatever other threads in which you are posting lies. I probably should go do that and warn everyone that you don't know your ass from your elbow and you think an ounce costs $5000 in upstate NY because "your friend" told you so.

Hey guys, can you please tear this douche a new asshole? I am growing weary of him and already unsubscribed to a thread that I liked just because I couldn't take his bullshit anymore but here he is fucking up my thread.

I'm down here in S.D. too man. I don't know the clone mill you're speaking of but that's no way to do business. Pm me the name of the place if you don't want to post it public. I have a couple of friends that have been getting clones of some diff. types from a few diff. places....I'll just have to ask but I know they've gotten some ones they're happy with...They've tried out a few places.
I would be interesting if I could find out if they've used the place you're talking about.

Also, if the person running that business ever needs a quick "check," I may be willing depending on the circumstances...no physical harm(even though I used to body build((265lb's @6'+ now)).....just his mental state could get real phucked up.;)
