Just thought I'd make a quick correction of misinformation I'd posted here.

Previous experience had led me to believe that using male BBs in crosses seemed to get rid of the worst of the mutations. I think I was making conclusions on too small a sample size.

Currently I have 7 or 8 NL x BB I made from Peak genetics in early veg and not quite half have twisted, stunted, very blueberry growth while the rest are healthy and thriving. I'll give them some time to grow out of it and start to catch up to the rest, but if they don't they'll get the chop. Not in the mood for fussy blueberry bitches at this point. :wink::blsmoke:

D'oh!

And now to correct my correction. :wall:

The plants showing the mutations are BBxNL, not the other way around. The BB is the mom, not the dad, so my tenuous original hypothesis has still not been dis-proven.

:dunce:

Figured I'd show what I was talking about, went and took this photo. As you can see, bottom right is normal looking, top right and bottom left are blueberry shitshows (he says fondly, kind of), and the little one on the top left looks like it may be growing out of the fucked-up phase.



Edit for clarity: the seeds that produced these 4 plants are all from the same batch of BBxNL

I like them all. Top left looks like the one that didn’t survive here. Bottom left looks like the one I have finishing up. Noticing from pics here that mine has considerably less pistils than those 80-90 day +.
I need a better pic of my Haze Berry. I’m loving it. I think with training it could have been so much more

Hey Gekokujo,

Thats a really nice looking structure. Did you just pop the one seed? Did it take a lot of searching to find a lemony pheno? How long did you veg for?

Cheers

Thanks! Its honestly the unexpected star of the run for me.

I've not run these before and this one came out of a mix pack, although I've been wanting to for a while. I got 2 sweet skunk and some blueberry. Out of the two only one was female. Originally I'd hoped the other one was a female as it was a more hazy expression, but sadly it had balls. I vegged 4 weeks ( a tried to limit time and food to slow it a little). The last of these was in a shared 25 gal probiotic sip. I would reccomend not vegging as much as I did. The plant is 5ft tall easy, because the stretch and vigour were very much equatorial sativa territory.

As far as finding a Lemon pheno, I cant give direct experience as this is my first female SS, but I've looked into the strain and I've seen lemon flavour connected to it before. Sweet Skunk appears to originally be a famous BC cut originally held by breeder steve which peak has bred into an IBL (possibly a bx). The story goes that Breeder Steve read the wrong label on the tray and called it a skunk when in retrospect he said it was likely a haze/nl5. When looking at S1's of the sweet skunk made by Chimera he labels them as 'Lemoncello' which makes me think lemon must be pretty dominant in this line. Hopefully I'll find out with my next Peak order :)

Hope that helps!

I'm looking closely at those bottles. It seems like you might be a REMO user??? I have been thinking about trying them at some point. A friend tried some and he claimed a very clean burn.

Yes I have been running it for about a year now with good results. I really like their Velokelp, excellent product. I would agree with your friend, it burns clean in my experience as well. I am glad I gave Remo nutes a go, worth a try for sure.

Geez, I hope not.

I was thinking it should be done around the next US presidential election. :wall: ;)


Seriously, I'm just hoping I can keep her going until the end. At this point she's looking like at least 4 months of flowering to finish. I've never taken a plant that long and I want that particular notch on my grower's belt, so to speak. Though I am hoping for some quality sativa flower, the knowledge gain is my true goal.

A buddy gave me a seed from some tootie fruity, or thats what he called it. Said it was some great tasting bud so I was excited to get it going. After 2 month flower she looked a lot like your haze right here. This was 2004 and only my 2nd year growing so I chopped it down.

Kind of regret not finishing it but it had gotten huge and I didn't have much room to spare.

But those long flowering times are what you gotta deal with to get that sativa variety not often found these days.

Hope you get to reap the rewards of your patience. Cheers

I was just thinking about my last couple of grows. Everyone knows that BB can be quite a decrepit mutant, but I feel like Peak's NL is similar.
Do you get the same impression? A lot of the NL just grows weird, but I love the heavily calming effects.

I'm rearing up for my next grow soon and even though I want to try some new strains, KNL is calling to me. I might plant four of them in the hopes of getting one or two girls.

My Peak NL has been pretty much normal heavy Indica. I did F2 KN and a more Sativa looking pheno shows up quite often, need to run again.

While not as ugly and screwy as BB, Peak's NL definitely has some weird tendencies, mostly strange leaf growth, like more than one row of 'fingers' from the same stem. Pretty sure I put a photo of an example of that somewhere in the thread.

I had a crinkle leaf variegated pheno a few years back. It was almost yellow the whole grow. It had nice hard buds with a strong fruity smell. It was nothing like the rest
