Any issues with powdery mildew or mold on your humboldt dream queen?Yup, Humboldt D.Q is green crack x mazar star x skunk. The other dream queen is blue dream x space queen.
4 years ago, I bought an eighth of Dream Queen from a guy, and it had the best weed effects I've ever smoked. Turns out I grew the wrong D.Q this year but it's still a nice smoke. Onto next year with the experience of a full grow under my belt

Haven't tried any yet, the couple of guys I gave clones to, said it's real good.
My Pistachio turned out nice, got a total of 13-1 gallon bags. Have about 8 ounces coming out of the Cannatrol on Thursday.
Almost done harvesting Squirt, it has a very pungent grapefruit scent, and some of the nicest purple & pinks I've seen, the 1st batch of that will be hitting the Cannatrol after the 1st run of pistachio.

My humboldt dream didnt finish fast enough as well. Cut it early. Smoke improved as the compounds broke down over many months.
I'm just going to let it go and run the course, I'm in trim jail right now, and will be for a while. Pistachio is down, Squirt will be finished tonight after work. Then it's onto Bigfoot glue or Blueberry Muffin, whichever is closer to being done.
Really digging the scent of Squirt, hopefully it transitions over during drying and curing. Looking forward to the Blueberry Muffin as well.

Very terpy and delicious. Jelly Rancher smells like candy. Raspberry parfait is berry good too
Not excessive but yeah. A few spots of wpm show up, I just remove and toss the leaf. There were 4 spots of bud rot forming on the plant that I cut and removed a week ago. Nothing crazy and excessive, it's outdoors it's going to happen, plus I never put up anything to block the rain. Growing in nyc, will bud wash on harvest

If I were Humboldt I'd change the name on that jelly rancher strain asap...
Wrigley just won a copyright infringement case against a retailer for using skittles name on their edibles. $2 million pay out plus all profits made from those products etc...
Better to just come up with an original name. It ain't hard to do.

Thought I would give an update.
2 magic melons in top. Lemon grass bottom left and 2 mint jelly autos. The lemongrass should have been staked. She getting heavy on top and beginning to lean a bit. Pretty excited. 2 more weeks maybe 3. One of the magic melons I could probably harvest now. But I'm gonna wait a week. It will be a relaxing but productive day off project.

I had to come here to speak of my experience with humboldt seed company...
Two years ago i ordered a pack of Raspberry Parfait. I grew them outdoor under a greenhouse, 11L full organic grow. Over 8 plants, 4 turned full herm (!!!!!). Great terpene but i found it to fade away after cure, and i get so much herm outdoor that i was just too scare to try any pheno of this indoor.
I also ordered a pack of blueberry muffin for a friend. He grew them and have no problem. Very strong taste, great resin coverage, very quick both indoor and out (try her last summer). But production suck, bud have no weight. And in my opinion this terpene is extraordinary at first and become very sickening after a while.
Recently i decide to try another strain from humboldt : blueberry cupcake. I start 9 seeds, one die. One grew very very slow, so i discard.
I start the 7 plants indoor, they are at the end of 4 weeks of flower right now... I get 5x declare herm over 7 plants. And when i say herm, it's not a few nanner here and there, i just spend two hours removing them.
Most pheno seems to be quick, i think they will be ready at 45-55 days. I get a long flowering one that will easily go 9-10 weeks, even him is full nanner when it starts flowering.
So i will say it. I like to try different breeder, try different things. I never have so much herm crap in my life, so now i know this guy from humboldt is just a fraud. For sure the guy know how to sell it's crap, and i am sure there is big money involved with this guy don carlos, but frankly this is all there is. Money... Marketing BS...
And don't say it's my fault or anything. I am an experienced grower, i know when my plant are stressed, and i was never the case here.
I see it coming, some will say "having herm with the blueberry cupcake is logical, it's fem and a wedding cake cross". And i will say BS, the same friend that grew the BM also made a selection of Ice Cream Cake (original), no herm, and it's a wedding cake cross. And frankly when you make seeds the right thing to do is to test it, if you see 3/4 are herm, you don't sell it or you work the damn line. But no, they need quick buck.
It's even worse for the raspberry parfait. The crap is a BX2, and half the pack herm like crazy, and again it was outdoor (!!! and !!!!). So the excuse "humbodlt make it's selection outdoor so he don't see it's herms" is another BS. The worse is probably the fact it's BX2. So the guy actually grow the BX1, so he surely saw the herms but decide to keep going with the line. So the guy knews for sure and decide to lie.
Last year i make a selection of some Crane seeds. Grew 8x fem of Marzhmallow. Cookie / zkittles / chem / TK hybrid and they are fems. No herms, i have two pheno outdoor, nothing but beautifull, healthy and productive plant, with excellent terp. What i know is crane is not lying when he said his seeds are tested. This guy from humboldt should learn from him really...

Sorry you had a rough experience like that my friend. You bring up great points, a company should not put out a bad product, you spent your valuable time to grow a plant that turned out unsuccessful due to bad genetics. However, I think it's unfair to completely discard the company for 2 unstable strains, if a grower sticks with Humboldt's more famous strains that have been fully ironed out, a good outcome can be expected. I empathize and feel for you bro, best luck with your future grows

Mint jelly auto. I think we are at day 40ish. I have 2 and they are identical twins. They have been aggressive and determined. Insanely identical. Not sure how much I'll get from a yield perspective, but I will definitely update on these. If they keep going as is they may be the most stupid proof strain I've grown. Could just be the weather helping in my favor too tho. They have been fun to watch that's for sure.

FWIW I've grown 3 of them, two last spring that I posted further back (vegged in a tent in a greenhouse and brought out to flower), and one this summer, all outdoor in soil and they didn't herm on me. I like it decently well, the blueberry muffin crosses all tend to be nice and terpy but I think the wedding cake is intended to bring up the potency a bit and I felt like it did a decent job of that in my spring stuff (summer cupcake still curing).
