hells yea. that plant looks awesome. very nice cross. is it sativa dominant?
Nah, the Big Bud influence adds to the indica dominance though there is some variation in the F1.
The front 5 are all Element Zero (Mr. Nice Guy x Big Bud). The back 4 are Nirvana Ice.
There are 3 basic phenotypes I have seen.
The two on the left (front left and back left) are the standard hybrid. Big indica leaves with some Sativa influences.
The two in the front, middle and right, are a shorter phenotype that starts out very indica leaning but as it ages begins throwing out more and more sativa-esque leaves.
The very tall one to the back right is the interesting phenotype. It is tall and stretchy like a Sativa, but the leaves are very indica.
After about 40 plants these are the 3 basic phenotypes I see.
The larger one is best when LST trained because the internode branches grow straight up the plant, not like your standard bushy indica that pushes branches outwards. It also harvests the heaviest. The problem with this phenotype is it can become so dense and heavy that mold can set in. I'd definitely breed this with a mold resistant dutch strain, like swiss cheese, to fight back the bud rot in an outdoor grow.
The shorter sativa-leaning plants are the purple-pheno and the high off of them carries a lot longer than the other plants. I actually prefer these shorties because the nugs they offer have a kind of piney, old school funk, taste to them. Much more sensitive to nutrient and pH fluctuations as well. I think these are my more Mr. Nice pheno's and the shortness of the plants comes from their Afghani Hashplant heritage.
The middle sized plants are pretty much just mids. Not fantastic, but not bad, kinda fuely tasting and sleepy. Good for hash making because they harvest very well for the space they consume.
I fucking Hijacked this shit! Booya! Frak JWH Mr. Nice. Get yourself some real Mr. Nice Guy and trip out the right way!
