recent breeding activities and future goals

hazey grapes

Well-Known Member
i actually got to test 1 cross i made with my joey weed C99 male this winter. it was a nice sticky short stuff super cali haze x cindy. it didn't particularly stand out in a grow with a bunch of hazes, thais and jacks except it might have been more resinous, but it was quite acceptable and had that taste of pride. it didn't taste like grapes as hoped when those haze phenos seemed apparent in both of it's parents under a halide instead of the new sodium on my 2nd grow. now it's been hit up with one of the last of JW's cinderella apollo males that sprayed everything else in the garden last winter.

i was REALLY impressed by DNA's sweet haze. oh that's a good one! STICKY like throw it at a wall juicy. it's very fruity too and the buzz is noticeably superior to gear that had a more generic motivational, but clearheaded high. it had hints of trippiness going on too that really impressed me. i just bought another fem that i'm going to hit with TGA's jack's cleaner 2 if i get a male out of my 3 beans of that trippy touchy feely fun strain.

eventually, i'd like to work sweet haze together with DJ short's purple & grape krush for a truly purple haze, probably by making a grape krush x "fast haze" out of cinderella or john sinclair's fast budding sativa trans-love, or seattle as i like to call it and make something less indica than GK sounds

i'd like to test all of the hazes & jacks i bred just to see if any really interesting synergies happen.

high quality seed's haze x skunk is still a favorite for a potent clearheaded motivational high with great abiility for tuning pain like hunger out with a long lasting buzz that doesn't turn stony after a couple weeks. that crossed with JC2 should be something great and i'd like to see what cindy apollo did to it too. if nothing else, the dry blunt flavor should improve.

i'm really excited to see what holy smokes malawi gold x cindy A turns out like as well as what malawi itself is like when it doesn't get fried by a light with no fan for a few hours. if it turns out that all 3 of my JC2 beans are female, then i'll gamble on using a malawi male instead. if the holy smokes gear lives up to MG's trippy lemon reputation, then that crossed with lemony JC2 should be a nice continuation of a theme with fresh genetics. as malawi gold still seems to be around and undiluted, maybe it will start showing up in new hazes, especially as it's a newer IBL to breeding.

i got an interesting bright crimson pheno autoflowering masterkush from black label seeds that had a decent enough, if not my thing, mid buzz that i want to use for breeding for color and shrinking longer flowering strains. maybe make a burgundy haze, or a red cherry haze using soma's tart cherry buddha's sister indica for flavor. i'd really like to mix buddha's sister with chocolope and see if it makes a chocolate cherry flavor. i still have 2 buddha's sister x G13 haze beans that are about 7 years old by now i've been saving for flavor breeding, but skipping the G13, it should be possible to make something hazier, especially with a haze back cross. it might not taste like cherries, but i bet some fruity sweet haze would be delicious with sour cherries. i'd imagine something kind of sour plum tasting.

as impressed as i've been with everything i've tried by DNA so far, i'd really like to try chocolope as well as "pricey" cannalope haze. i bet both are awesome too as their lemon skunk is my favorite for that too. i really want to get a lemon skunk female for JC2 or malawi pollination. lemon haze mutts of fun. i have some delicious sour cream x cindy As too i want to test to see if the slight odor can be mellowed and the buzz unlocked a little. for a typical smoker that likes at least a little stone, sour cream is delicious, but i seem to remember it being more like a sweet cream cheese, but distinctive for sure.

i'm really mostly happy just to have been able to try a bunch of fun at the very least strains to find that sweet haze "diamond in the rough". i'd like to find other top quality hazes that are still out there some day, but that one is more than good enough to me as is.

i'm happy just knowing i have enough fresh gear that's top quality that i can get high some more as well as over a dozen crosses and a couple BXes that i have diverse hybrid vigor to fall back on and select from to keep the ball rolling without cloning.

it's nice seeing them gals getting all plump with seeds. the great circle of life. all that good stuff. it gets in the way of smoking if that's all you're doing with smaller plants, and don't even think of doing that with extreme SCROG pruning as too much energy will go into making your beans and your plants will have to give up their fan leaves. i'll do brush pollination next time. forget the whole testing a field of 100 females thing. that can be done with back crossing. crossing good gear with good gear is a very fun hobby. it must be nice to be able to share the fruits of those labors with the world.

short version...
jack's cleaner 2, haze skunk, sweet haze & seattle are all worthy of crossing with anything for something nice. the black label masterkush is a decent enough mid that has a golden and a green pheno too in a compact plant that flips under 24h of shoplight with reasonable low odor that would be very productive in a sea of green if you had enough beans, or, just cross it with C99 etc. and get something better.

the STL in particular would be good for cabinet grows and stealth cloning. it's very budding intensive for a fruity average haze high. it's the closest thing to a cash cropping haze i've grown. i harvested everything early when the sodium polkadotted all of my plants the night i forgot to vent, but the seattle had a flat top of 8 NICE fruity colas i'd guess could have been up to 3 grams each twice topped in not much more than 30 days of flowering and that including making beans at the same time. the fast flowering time of the cindy As should be rally nice with the profuse budding of STL.
 
please tell more about the jacks cleaner
have you bred with it in the past
is it actually trippy?
i smoked some stuff called gigabud that had my hearing distorted - sounds out of sync like the audio was lagging, thrown voice syndromeish crap...
and i smoke an 1/8 a day if i stay in bed
i love satori and golden tiger - sputnik is ...meh - shrugs

also is coloring commonplace in the auto masterkush?

chocolope sent me kinda spacey and not quite surreal - i was pleasantly mellow and barely aware of my body
chocolate was only in the smell the taste was mushroom compost and hash

also noone can breed a better seed for you than you
period.

great informative post - subbed
 
oh yeah the jack's cleaner 2 is trippy. i didn't see it to finish though as all of my plants were working hard making seeds and one night i forgot to turn the fan on for 4-5 hours and all of my plants had polkadot burns, probably reflector hot spots i bet. but yeah. the JC2 had a really cool effect.

it has a little bit of a stony edge in the middle of flowering, but, along the lines of funky diesel tasting onyx hasa fun touchy feely warm euphoric buzz that's better date magic than kali mist or C99 i bet. it's body effects included imaginary ripples of colors where i stroked my chest & arms. it's not the same as the light floaty feeling of columbian gold, but, yeah, i sure want some more of that.

haze skunk & sweet haze both have potential trippiness too. i need to test them all side by side for a fair evaluation, but JC2 has the nicest buzz i can put a name to since the 80s. i'm really interested in sannies' dirt cheap $28 jack as well as their lemon thai and something else if not the horribly repulsively named killing fields.

i really want to report on malawi gold too. that has the best potential for trippy other than the fussy diva highland thai beans i still have left by nirvana.

JC2 is a great indoor jack that stands out like sweet haze against more watered down euphoric & motivational indoor hazes. if you're looking for potent trippy gear, put killing fields, and TGA's jack the ripper on your short list and a member here swears by his ace panamas.

i bred the JC2s with a joey weed C99 x A11 male i scooped up once i realized his gear was going extinct at hemp depot. that 9 week trippy strain with a mildly trippy i imagine 55 day strain should produce something better than typical. i used a fruity JW C99 as my 1st male and the cindy apollo as my 2nd and i'm probably using my new JC2s as my male in my quality grow. i really like sweet haze on the fruity tip. i think it'd win a bag appeal showdown against the JC2.

if sannies' gear lives up to it's rep, and i'd bet it does as word gets around, their jack x JC2 shouldn't be shabby at all and i bet lemon skunk x JC2 & malawi x JC2 would all be nice enough for lemon strains. it's too bad TGA's agent orange cali-o is skunky. i would have liked to make an orange haze out of it with new malawi genetics. i'd like to compare holy smokes to ace seeds there if no one else does.

now that i have a heating mat. i'm thinking of giving mekong haze a try. if you really want to breed a good indoor strain, it helps to start with some undiluted IBL genes and cambodians should bring some fresh hybrid vigor to the diluted in the name of greed inbred schwag funk from copies of copies. cambodian x malawi with some fast flowering couchlock free shrinking could be a really nice haze. what this greedy world needs to fix itself... some of the gift. that or, greed will suck the entire planet into the abyss.

yeah, i like TGA's gear. the member here that said both his indicas and sativas are true to their descriptions and not watered down. the cleaner is plenty nice by me. the world would be a much better place if people just mellowed the fuck out on some shit like that instead of always tweakin' & freakin' & squeakin'.

if you want a really nice nothing but energy and euphoria strain and don't mind waiting 17 weeks for it, kali mist is exceptional. i especially loved the original peppery version. maybe western winds still has that flavor if it's still around. C99 is a much more practical strain that's in a similar ballpark. that's why it's been my speed it up breeder, but now i'm looking for some quality.

i want to try bodhi's genius when he gets that back to see how the buzz compares to cinderella. if it's mellower & trippier as it used to be compared as, it would be a funner 24/7 strain and less of a speed rush. i'd really like to see genius x JC2, but don't expect it to be back in time. there's always freezing pollen for later. i still have some C99 x A11 in the freezer in multiple packs for brush pollenization.

i'd like to give CH9's jack a second look as well as their jack 33 as those might be nice too. i vaguely recall the jack being potent, with some psychoactivity with a manageable stone.

i'm just choosing the JC2 as my male this time because it's a 9 week strain and i know i like it a lot. lemon is a great flavor to me too. i bet it really does something cool with haze skunk even if it's just improve the flavor and speed flowering up a week or two.

i just know i don't have $200+ for sensi seeds' jack herer

i'd like to try satori myself. i know i love 8 miles high. it just has a mellow all around fun buzz that's functional and clear headed. i'd call it the first real high i'd had in a long time. i want to grow that again some day. that's a serious problem solving strain.
 
the black label skunk kush auto only had one red pheno, 2 green with orange hairs if memory serves me right and one blonde. i don't know how rare the red kush pheno is, but it wasn't a temp related coloring, so hopefully it will be easy to breed for. i was surprised to see such distinct phenos.

00 kushes.jpg

the 1st one is the gold pheno, the topped shorty is the crimson pheno and the other two were the deep green pheno. the buzzes were pretty similar, but the red one stood out because on the plant, the color was just so intense it's hard to describe. it was a very dark red, but very bright too. as pronounced as the color was, i'd imagine it's not a 1:100 pheno. i'm hoping that i can get it passed on to a male breeder. it's the first thing i've ever selected for other than choosing males. in the case of C99, i went with the fastest & shortest male.

this is what i started out with before some sexing last winter
feb 11 cropped.jpg
 
my wishlist right now is:
jack - sannies
lemon thai - sannies
santa maria (columbian gold?) - sannies
chocolope - DNA
cannalope haze - DNA
lemon skunk - DNA
agent orange - TGA
kaboom - TGA
the void - TGA
grape kru$h - DJ shorts
wreckage - TH seeds
purple wreck - reserva privada
8 miles high - mandala
apollo genius - bodhi
columbian gold & black - ace
orient express - ace

and any exceptional indoor haze i'm overlooking. i really want to try TH seeds' kushage and will give my 2 LAcon regs a chance to stink my garden up and test my DIY scrubber concept.

male breeder will be a jack's cleaner 2 or a malawi gold. the stuff i already have besides my own bred stock that will be the heart of my fall grow is:
malawi gold - holy smokes
jack's cleaner 2 - TGA
haze skunk - high quality
sweet skunk - DNA
sativa trans-love - john sinclair i call it seattle or STL
jack & jack 33 - CH9
buddha's sister - SOMA a better start than the G13 haze cross i think
LA confidential - TH seeds
blue dream haze - cali connection
critical jack herer - delicious

my own gear that i want most to test & continue adding genes to is:

C99bx x (C99 x A11) - cinderella story, preserving joey weed haze phenos
(super cali haze x C99
aka fruity booty) x (C99 x A11) - fruity booty
haze skunk x C99 -
party girl... lots of motivation i bet
jack's cleaner 2 x (C99 x A11) -
cleaning lady
sweet haze x (C99 x A11) -
carmen miranda, i'd expect it to be even fruitier than F-booty
sour cream x (C99 x A11)
- creampuff especially for flavor crosses like chocolope
sativa trans-love x (C99 x A11)
- seattle girl... fast budding and finishing haze
jack x (C99 x A11) -
powerpuff girl
malawi gold x (C99 x A11) -
blondie
red masterkush x (C99 x A11)
- redhead (jessica rabbit?)

the rare or femmed gear i'm holding onto is
kali mist - serious (1x)
buddha's sister x G13 haze - SOMA (2x)
C99 x blueberry - joey weed (2x)
grapes & pine bagseed mid
full moon (REAL tutti fruity highland thai) - sativa seeds full IBL hermie diva
kandy kush - reserva privada
pineapple express - G13 labs
roadrunner - dinafem
critical 33 - CH9

DNA sweet haze shows better overall smoke quality in the trippy fruity haze department early in flowering compared to these mostly similar "clear headed motivational euphoria" strains: HQS thai skunk, thai fantasy, super lemon haze, sativa trans-love, jack, auto jack, C99bx, & my own super cali haze x C99. i hope to try an even better haze or two, but the sweet haze is nice all around with just a slight hint of cat piss. mixing that with grape krush should make something nice & hopefully purple.

i'm not sure what i have in a clear vial. i'm thinking it's either 2 columbian gold x NL5s or JC2s. they could be super cali hazes too. i think i could figure it out with testing.

i'm all ears for suggestions for strains that get you high and that are top quality smoke
 
satori is hands down the best sativa high i've ever had
golden tiger (meio thai x malawi gold) is a CLOSE second
nothing else has compared

my first REAL breeding project will be pakistani chitral kush by one of those 2
the jacks cleaner sounds like big fun, but 50 of those beans are....well...expensive lol

crack those kandy kush beans, man - there's all kindza dank in there - sledgehammer to the forehead sweet lemon mushroom dank so crystally that the hues are largely pointless lol

if you're ever in MI, i;ve got 2 cuts phenoes of g13 haze, 1 of which is the clearest buzz i've ever had

also, if you can find wonder haze, it's my absolutely favorite hybrid - MASSIVE breeding potential - SOOOOO many flavors

is your LA from cut or seed?

how many beans to get a c99 keeper?
i've smoked it - not impressed - but never grown it
could you share what you see it breeding trueish for?
do you prefer a c99 male or female for maintaining said traits?

Shag, dont waste your time man. That 2nd post pretty much sums up Hazey's grow experience. Alot of plants grown in party cups that he cut down 3-4 weeks into flower. Everything else he says is a lie. Anyone who has crossed plants knows it takes a couple weeks into flowers before the pistols are ready for pollen, then it takes atleast 4 weeks in flower for the seeds to mature. He has never come close to 6 weeks in flower.
So yeah, dont waste your time.
 
my LAcons were a pair of regulars in an attitude UFO. i wanted to gift them because i don't like stinky strains. it's interesting at least as an indica with a rep for trippiness.

C99 is a pretty good male. it's not going to add odor or much couchlock unless you select for that maybe. i like joey weed's fruity version a lot. it's a 45 day strain and it really mated nicely with super cali haze. i was expecting grapes as i got that under halide, but SCH x C99 was a thick juicy haze. if you could get a potent pineapple C99 male, you could do a lot with both stony strains and 12 week plus IBLs too. i like it for breeding out couchlock and keeping flowering times short without getting skunky.

C99 is a nice buzz, but it's more clear headed than trippy in my phenos. it's about activities, or breeding indoor friendly strains. it makes a lot more sense to use it with IBLs than funking them up until you get down to the 12.5% with afghani. i really like it as a low odor strain too. i'd expect masterkush x cindy apollo to be a nice auto with less stone and a decent flowering time.

hazier jacks are funner though. i really want to see what sannies' jack is like.

i haven't bothered with "keeper females" and don't have space for a mother room to even do it. i just pop everything and smoke it. other than height issues, joey weed C99s all smoked about the same to me and even the masterkush i just grew with 3 distinct color phenos seemed consistent.

i like quality, don't get me wrong, but not to the degree many obsess about here where only 1 plant in 100 is "good enough". as long as i'm not getting stoned and am getting some kind of high, i'm happy enough. almost everything i've grown has been great by my standards.

my philosophy is that if you start with good enough genes in both parents to begin with, anything you get from there should be at least good.

if i were to move to canada and seriously take breeding up, then i would get really serious about selecting keepers, maintaining clone mothers and even testing males. all that record keeping though... i just like smoking weed that gets you high like you can never buy.
 
FLAVORS:
grape (krush), tart cherry, lemon, sour cream and i'd like to find a strain that has a nice buzz that only tastes like pepper like kali mist & one mexican commercial i lucked into tasted like. ORIGINAL kali mist x agent orange sounds like a delicious orange curry. i'm looking into $157 :roll: mr nice mango haze as an alternative to top quality fruity sweet haze by DNA genetics

EFFECTS:
as little couchlock as possible. euphoria is a favorite for any buzz. other priorities are clear headed functionality & preferably at least light motivation, trippiness, warm touchy feely effects & precise body control with the ability to tune pain & hunger out for some strains

GOALS:
speeding up long flowering strains without impairing or even improving flavors & keeping top THC profiles preserved. i like the idea of breeding more for fluffy buds. i like breaking those apart with fingers better. rock nugs annoy me as much as stone buzz. a dream goal would be capturing the light floating on air feeling from columbian gold. that's a fun effect. 8 miles high is similar but more about precision maybe. getting 8 miles high again is a big priority.

Buddha's Sister x a trippy motivational haze that makes a perfect flavor combo with great buzz. maybe "IBL" lemony malawi gold is the perfect match, but mango haze or cannalope haze could be perfect for a sweet authentic cherry flavor. maraschino would be an ideal flavor


fuckin' forum postbot is being a pain in the ass & fighting posts
 
i might use malawi gold as a male instead of the jack's cleaner 2. maybe i should have included sannies' jack herer f7 as a possibility too, but that's a cheap easy to replace strain even if i've never even bought it yet. i like sticking to strains i know wherever possible though when C99 surprised me with virtually no psychoactivity whatsoever like a middy kali mist.

maybe i should shortlist the strains i'm most interested in, and try for another vote off. it's so freakin' hard getting accurate descriptions of strains, even when you ask.
 
i really want to pop my CH9's jack x cindy apollos. that should be a nicely vigorous plant with 49 day and 55 day parents. what i remember about it was that it was straight up indica looking, potent, not stony really an not that different from generic fruity hazes. i was just looking flowering times up, and it's the fastest strain i crossed with the joey weed CxA. that should make for an interesting no worse than middy plant. the strain got lost in the shuffle as DNA's sweet haze was top quality across the board in a field with strains closer to the jack. actually, the autoflowering masterkush cross would be the fastest producing strain i've ever crossed, but it is likely to be a clone proof auto. i grew some comparable to the jack kannabia auto jack that's also 7 weeks flowering, but i'd rather use strains that are natural 7 weeks. the CH9 should be denser anyways with it's squat habits. as far as 7 week crosses go, there should be a lot worse out there and C99 at least would be a perfect contrast to heavier jack. the 25% apollo should be closer to it. it will be fun testing it. the lemony malawi gold pollen i intend to put in it should make something with a strong high. the flowering time would probably be 10 weeks or more, but if it's trippy, it would be a potential keeper. as big as i recall the seed pods being, there should be some resin potential there too.
 
i actually got to test 1 cross i made with my joey weed C99 male this winter. it was a nice sticky short stuff super cali haze x cindy. it didn't particularly stand out in a grow with a bunch of hazes, thais and jacks except it might have been more resinous, but it was quite acceptable and had that taste of pride. it didn't taste like grapes as hoped when those haze phenos seemed apparent in both of it's parents under a halide instead of the new sodium on my 2nd grow. now it's been hit up with one of the last of JW's cinderella apollo males that sprayed everything else in the garden last winter.

i was REALLY impressed by DNA's sweet haze. oh that's a good one! STICKY like throw it at a wall juicy. it's very fruity too and the buzz is noticeably superior to gear that had a more generic motivational, but clearheaded high. it had hints of trippiness going on too that really impressed me. i just bought another fem that i'm going to hit with TGA's jack's cleaner 2 if i get a male out of my 3 beans of that trippy touchy feely fun strain.

eventually, i'd like to work sweet haze together with DJ short's purple & grape krush for a truly purple haze, probably by making a grape krush x "fast haze" out of cinderella or john sinclair's fast budding sativa trans-love, or seattle as i like to call it and make something less indica than GK sounds

i'd like to test all of the hazes & jacks i bred just to see if any really interesting synergies happen.

high quality seed's haze x skunk is still a favorite for a potent clearheaded motivational high with great abiility for tuning pain like hunger out with a long lasting buzz that doesn't turn stony after a couple weeks. that crossed with JC2 should be something great and i'd like to see what cindy apollo did to it too. if nothing else, the dry blunt flavor should improve.

i'm really excited to see what holy smokes malawi gold x cindy A turns out like as well as what malawi itself is like when it doesn't get fried by a light with no fan for a few hours. if it turns out that all 3 of my JC2 beans are female, then i'll gamble on using a malawi male instead. if the holy smokes gear lives up to MG's trippy lemon reputation, then that crossed with lemony JC2 should be a nice continuation of a theme with fresh genetics. as malawi gold still seems to be around and undiluted, maybe it will start showing up in new hazes, especially as it's a newer IBL to breeding.

i got an interesting bright crimson pheno autoflowering masterkush from black label seeds that had a decent enough, if not my thing, mid buzz that i want to use for breeding for color and shrinking longer flowering strains. maybe make a burgundy haze, or a red cherry haze using soma's tart cherry buddha's sister indica for flavor. i'd really like to mix buddha's sister with chocolope and see if it makes a chocolate cherry flavor. i still have 2 buddha's sister x G13 haze beans that are about 7 years old by now i've been saving for flavor breeding, but skipping the G13, it should be possible to make something hazier, especially with a haze back cross. it might not taste like cherries, but i bet some fruity sweet haze would be delicious with sour cherries. i'd imagine something kind of sour plum tasting.

as impressed as i've been with everything i've tried by DNA so far, i'd really like to try chocolope as well as "pricey" cannalope haze. i bet both are awesome too as their lemon skunk is my favorite for that too. i really want to get a lemon skunk female for JC2 or malawi pollination. lemon haze mutts of fun. i have some delicious sour cream x cindy As too i want to test to see if the slight odor can be mellowed and the buzz unlocked a little. for a typical smoker that likes at least a little stone, sour cream is delicious, but i seem to remember it being more like a sweet cream cheese, but distinctive for sure.

i'm really mostly happy just to have been able to try a bunch of fun at the very least strains to find that sweet haze "diamond in the rough". i'd like to find other top quality hazes that are still out there some day, but that one is more than good enough to me as is.

i'm happy just knowing i have enough fresh gear that's top quality that i can get high some more as well as over a dozen crosses and a couple BXes that i have diverse hybrid vigor to fall back on and select from to keep the ball rolling without cloning.

it's nice seeing them gals getting all plump with seeds. the great circle of life. all that good stuff. it gets in the way of smoking if that's all you're doing with smaller plants, and don't even think of doing that with extreme SCROG pruning as too much energy will go into making your beans and your plants will have to give up their fan leaves. i'll do brush pollination next time. forget the whole testing a field of 100 females thing. that can be done with back crossing. crossing good gear with good gear is a very fun hobby. it must be nice to be able to share the fruits of those labors with the world.

short version...
jack's cleaner 2, haze skunk, sweet haze & seattle are all worthy of crossing with anything for something nice. the black label masterkush is a decent enough mid that has a golden and a green pheno too in a compact plant that flips under 24h of shoplight with reasonable low odor that would be very productive in a sea of green if you had enough beans, or, just cross it with C99 etc. and get something better.

the STL in particular would be good for cabinet grows and stealth cloning. it's very budding intensive for a fruity average haze high. it's the closest thing to a cash cropping haze i've grown. i harvested everything early when the sodium polkadotted all of my plants the night i forgot to vent, but the seattle had a flat top of 8 NICE fruity colas i'd guess could have been up to 3 grams each twice topped in not much more than 30 days of flowering and that including making beans at the same time. the fast flowering time of the cindy As should be rally nice with the profuse budding of STL.

it's good that you have some passion for breeding. it's a good hobby.

in a couple of months, i'll be handing out some of my seeds to some local legal growers. i'm old, i put a lot of work into selecting and buying great F1s and breeding them and making crosses, and i'd be annoyed if it all got tossed in the trash if i died/got real sick. i need to spread it around a bit.

Just keep in mind this idiot has yet to make it past 5 weeks into flowering. Dont believe the typed words....
 
i don't know that i have a passion for breeding just yet. i'd have to get deep into back crossing and selecting for that. i just like smoking the kind of weed you can't buy on the streets but should be able to and trying to find better where possible. i'm plenty happy with my top 5 favorites as/is.

tinkering with crosses is just another fun kind of art... mix some of this with some of that, and then you can call it yours. it's also a fun way to get rid of a bit of go against the flow energy trying to do what others aren't. i WOULD love to be in canada where i could take breeding more seriously and start working up my own stable strains as well as be in a place where i can test gear to grow first hand.

i'd really like to make a successor to dr greenegenes' cherry thai with buddha's sister. that flavor sounds better than blueberry or especially diesels to me.

a truly grape tasting AND purple AND trippy haze would be my ultimate goal, just to have something to show for choosing the name.

if i can get enough head stash to weather a summer shut down and long 1st grow, i'd like to test a few 15 weeks plus strains and find something as good as possible to breed with the current state of the art afghani alternatives like jack and apollo hybrids, especially with IBLs that aren't in the haze/skunk/afghani/NL5 reshuffles like malawi gold or possibly delta 9's cambodian

there are already 50 day strains out there with nice highs. if you mix those with IBLs that haven't been watered down and are too commonplace yet, it should be possible to make at least decent hazes. the word doesn't really mean anything anymore. haze will eventually get misquoted as ancient slang for "highs".
 
i never shared a pic of my breeding "pride and joy" (so far anyways), fruity booty = super cali haze x C99. it was just a little better than average jacks, thais and hazes, but no match for DNA's trippy and fruity sweet haze, but the cross i made with that and hopefully trippier C99 x A11 should be much better. i hit fruity booty up with that cindy apollo male too. it should be at least decent.

i picked up more CH9 jack as well as another jack33 for testing as their jack looked like a cash cropping indica, but wasn't KO stoney or stinky and possibly a little trippy too, though stretchy sweet haze and jack's cleaner 2 overshadowed it, but i might consider J33 as a breeder for speedy flowering and euphoria or even jack for higher yields.

i also have cali con blue dream, TH seeds' buddha's sister & dinafem critical jack i want to test and if i hadn't thought of it yet, sannie's jack f7 is at the top of my shopping list along with TGA's third dimension looking for distinctive highs and flavors to toss into my projects.

i'm really liking the idea of working old timer's haze & grape krush into a purple grape haze as a long term future project, possibly involving sweet haze too. ideally, i'd like to try a few different crosses to see what's closest to my goal before doing the BX thing and selecting if maybe sweet haze takes a grape flavor better than OTH's blackberry liquor, though the cross would be tasty. i might go with less colorful OTH x thai though as it's cheaper if not as spectacular.

i'm still keeping my eye open for new gear to test. a member here said he's going to put some $50 A11 genius up at the depot. i'd like to try that and see how it's different from other jack hybrids.

fruity booty 1.0 (but i think i'll end up giving the name to my sweet haze do over)

these are my favorite crosses in my second breeding session. the fruity booty x (C99 x A11) beans and C99bx x (C99 x A11)s are second generation "pride strains" while the malawi gold, jack's cleaner 2, sour cream, sweet haze, CH9 jack, sativa trans-love & masterkush auto red pheno crosses all have qualities i want to preserve and/or continue to breed for.
