I was wondering what your experience is flowering Green Crack, and how much did it yield?

I know GC has a wide flowering range, but I was just wondering what individual experiences people have, and what the outcome was--

Thanks for the help :)

Where did you get it? If you don't mind me asking. I have been hunting for GC.

GC is clone only, so why would it have a wide flowering range? I've never grown it, but my understanding is that it's a 50 day strain.

From a friend in l.a. I just got a couple clones, didn't mother any of them, kind of regretting now. I don't have a lot of experience, but it's seeming like a monster yielder...my 4 plants are coming along very strong. That's why I'm wondering about flowering days--I'm only at day 38, but it looks almost done, but maybe that's just my inexperience. Just wondering what people have done with it.

Isnt Green C a pure Sativa?? or at least a dominant sativa strain?? If so i would think flower time would be more than 50 or 60 days. As far as yeild..... depends on so much on what you got going on.....

I just meant wide flowering range, in that I've read some people post they pulled it in 37 days, some 45 days, etc.

50 days...it'll be monstrous. They buds are already very golf ball sized now.

I almost made the same mistake of not keeping a cut, i took this one out 2 weeks after going into 12/12 and was able to get some cuts, she has a few weird leafs because of the reveg, but the top is huge and it stinks and is sticky as hell, Ill post a piic after I trim her tomorrow, she went 8.5 weeks

Reveg what's left after you chop? I've heard of folks pulling it off.

A friend of mine grew some a couple years back. I tried some of his a few months ago, and have wanted to grow one since. He wants to grow a couple this year, but can't find anybody with a cut up in waaaayyyy north cali.

Wow--with Green Crack? That's a lot longer than I've heard about. What kind of lights and nutes did you use? I'm using a 1k hps, with GH nutes, a little Sugaree and some monster bloom. (I also put a little h202 in the reservoir, to help keep algae at bay.)

Any recommendations for going that long? How did you support the weight?

(I apologize for all the newbie questions :)

I will definitely keep my ears out for you--I have some friends up in Eurika (sp?), so I've been planning to go up there anyway one of these days :)

1000 watt hps,c02 in a sealed room. I have pulled it earlier, but I like the high at 8.5 weeks the best., see the bamboo stake, there's 3 more you can't see. at a 3-4 ft plant, I get about 4 zips

How did it work out at 8.5 weeks? Did you like the smoke?

Do you find the tris turn amber? I'm just noticing them going a little cloudy, but that's about it (so far). Maybe because I'm only at 7 weeks?

I don't want to 'ruin' it by letting it go too long, but I need to get the yield up there...

I'm thinking of trying 8.5 weeks too :)

Did you flush? And if so, for how long?

Thanks again...
