The 12-12 From Seed Thread

Hsf, I'd go with the majority of the trichs being cloudy with some amber, depends on you what effect you want, 50/50 cloudy/amber for couchlock and less amber for cerebal high, if the rest of the bud looks ready then it probably is.

this tends to happen with longer flowering sativa dominant strains
it is not 12-12 specific

it's probably just new growth, difficult to say without pictures

judgement should be made on the entire plant so overall ripeness

some sativas can just keep flowering for months, if you see 5-10% amber get ready to take her down.

Hey guys, quick question. I've had my Lemon Kush in flower for quite some time now and last night, I was under the impression that it was ready to be chopped due to it's inflated calyx, receded brown/orange pistils and that amber glow on a lot of the trichomes.
This morning, I open up the grow room door and just see a mass of white hairs all over the Lemon Kush flowers with new calyx growth. It's not foxtailing or at least I don't think it is because it's not growing in any certain direction, it's all over. My first initial thought was "nanners" but then I looked properly and saw they were hairs.

Could anyone possibly suggest a finishing frame? Maybe a week or a few days or longer. I'm just getting a little impatient now ¬_¬ lol.

Hey, just looking for some info here, are the white things (circled red in the pics) white pistils? AKA signs of a female? or are they something else? the plant is just over 1 month old and is 12/12 from seed.

It's an indica dominant strain and if I'm being honest, it looks exactly like the picture of Black Domina that Sensi use on their seed packs.black-domina-xl.jpg

It looks exactly like that ^^

I'm definitely game for couch lock, I love that feeling of complete and utter laziness.

This is the trichomes on the buds, they're all cloudy, but on the sugar leaves there are a lot of amber trichomes. I think I'll just keep a daily note of the trichomes until it's around 50/50 or as close to.

guess the same thing can happen on indicas too.
not sure why I thought it would be sati leaning
It's no worries. I'm not entirely sure on the genetics myself, I have 4 of them growing but this is the one I'm really looking forward too. It's not going to be the biggest of yields, but it spent the majority of it's life in a 2litre bottle.
The other one which is flowering is definitely more sativa and is about 46 inches tall, I topped it and well, I have 5 main tops from the point they were topped, 2 very large, 2 large and 1 pathetic thing which I just chopped down to stop it from embarrassing its self. It's producing huge amounts of flowers though and it looks like a good two or three weeks yet. But the yield looks like it's going to be good. I'm estimating 2 ounces which for what I'm growing with, is pretty exceptional.

What sort of height/width is the Lemon Kush hsf? I'm interested in trying it if my cab is big enough, I do like a citrus tasting smoke I must admit.

Well, the one in the 8 litre pot is the more sativa looking pheno, it got to 46 inches tall before it finally stopped stretching. I think you could probably get it smaller as this was all part of my first grow operation, so my inexperience could have played a part in it's monstrous size. She also has a lot of foliage and at around mid flower(today), I had to support one of her main tops due to the weight of her. It'll be interesting to see what the final out come is. As stated in the above post, I think it's going to have 2 ounces when fully dry. At this moment in time, she smells like fresh lemon juice, but you have to really put your nose into her to really get a good sniff.

The more indica pheno is a lot shorter at 19 inches tall but she spent most of her life in a 2 litre bottle, but was shifted to a 5 litre pot just after she finished stretching. She smells like a lemon syrup or a lemon tart or something along those lines, it's a real strong smell as well, I open the grow room door and it's like someone throwing a lemon pie at your face.
I'm not expecting a huge yield off of her, simply because of her size and what a hard life she's had. Twice the transplanting was a complete disaster, then she had one of her tops bend in half through my own clumsiness and she's had a PH issue in early flowering. But she's going strong and I'm proud of her. Such a resilient little plant!

cannazon woogs, great peeps, good genetics, excellent prices and of course awesome freebies ;)
my last order with them I ended up with more free seeds than one's I had actually paid for, go figure

some of the freebies are usually from lesser known breeders or newer upcoming breeders

got my jaws gear off there in an auction, starfighter f2's and also chemberry which is a true blueberry x chemd 4 I believe.

zVice that's a good load of freebies, where did they come from?

Just made my order for beans, low budget so only 2 x fem Big Bomb and 2 x fem Cherry Bomb both by Bomb Seeds, Cherry Bomb is new and grows short and has Big Bomb genetics but with a cherry flavour and redding of leaves in flower so hopefully it will fit in my cab.
My sativa bagseed fems have really stretched and the 2 Superbud are starting to fill out, 1 pheno having small leaves one big..
AK 48 not germing too fast..
