I'm running some for a first time. I hope it is as good as people say it is.
Brother, I won't baffle you with all the ripening stages talk like on other posts, however I'll give you a suggestion. Organic, hid or t5 and give it at least 15 weeks. Pluck any big leaves with stems during flower that's blocking light...and call me in the morning. Dr.rev.the natural lolI'm running some for a first time. I hope it is as good as people say it is.
Are you saying 15 weeks for this variety, or do you recommend letting most any plant go that long?Brother, I won't baffle you with all the ripening stages talk like on other posts, however I'll give you a suggestion.

Any plant will go even longer for more cannabinoids production and truly healing meds and unreal potent smoke. That's just my base recommendation to not freak growers out to bad at first lol. Take her to at least 15 and you will see as the difference between even that and when most cut, will impress you. ...revAre you saying 15 weeks for this variety, or do you recommend letting most any plant go that long?
I'll try that rev.

You will not regret and feed well till end.I'll try that rev. Definitley goes against "conventional wisdom" but I'm always down to learn something new
That won't be much of a problem. I'm already have it going in my organic Coots mix. The Blue Dream is the one in the upper right corner. I topped it and have it in a 10 gallon smart pot.Brother, I won't baffle you with all the ripening stages talk like on other posts, however I'll give you a suggestion.

10-4 and try not to go so large on pot next time lol. Trust me, smaller pots are better and an indoor tree that gives even several pounds, needs no more than 3 gallons. You will water more, but the more you can water and feed, without drowning roots, the more product and potentcy. I use hydroton and perilite now and compost tea for that reason. Allot of waterings, but allot of bud. Don't be afraid to go several spoons of molasses per gallon. It will harden or the soil at top, but that becomes a patty of food love every watering and absolutely increases resin and that means potentcy, even sugar will. Your gonna have a blessed grow and do well. Don't be impatient on drying and curing so not to spoil your hard work. We should all know by now how well all that quick drying works,lol.That won't be much of a problem. I'm already have it going in my organic Coots mix.

I run Coco DTW in 2 gallon smart pots also in another tent. The reason the pots are that big is because it is a no-till organic grow/RLOS. I'm testing the difference in 10 gallons VS 5 gallons in this style of growing.10-4 and try not to go so large on pot next time lol.

Test away! That's how I and we all learn. If I would have powdered all my trees noses, I'd had learned nothing lol.I run Coco DTW in 2 gallon smart pots also in another tent.

Found a little better pic, good night lol. One love, the rev.Big blue ox. A strain we created using the true clone only blue dream and a 100% pure oaxacan male. Just made last year with several other strains we have worked on using our old mexi seed bank of genetics to do so. Moved out west from the southeast and knew pretty much what was available and raised on Sativa's, this old cripi out here...well anyway. Males and females and extraordinary as this could now be released in Cali and become a land race there.lol

Before I go night night lol. This is a bud from a pure lowland Oaxaca and you can see that in the hso blue dream. Some pure ox can be very foxtailing, but that's the trait that makes them pack the bud. Ox takes possibly the longest to ripen but worth it in its effects and in later ripening, the branches just can't hold the weight unless vertical on a big one, but heck even flower from seed, they get pretty ridiculous lol.

Damn, that is sweet!!! I'm thinking about running BD in the fall. I want to get some "easier" strains dialed in before I venture into the harder Sativa's, like one of the ACE strains. I have done Utopia Haze (Barney's farm), which actually wasn't bad. I really want to try Panama Haze!Right off the brick baby! Lol this is another pure ox in background in picture. You can see, even with other pure Sativa's, how she out grew all. Only vegged 3 weeks so that tells you and7ft..one love rev.View attachment 3456389

I totally agree, clone only strain are clone only for a reason it has nothing to do with good breeding or genetics just a lot of seed poppin,, every plant is unique. as long as your not expecting to get the original blue dream, you will almost certainly be happy with what you get just from a 5 pack and if the clone only stran never existed. Blue Dream would still make a perfect name for the strainclone only selections originate from seed , they were selected and kept as clones because of desirable traits in the opinion of the keeper
folk who buy into the scam then believe that ALL seed plants are inferior to this holy grail clone only selection
for example, cheese is a hyped up strain in the UK i first grew cheese about 12 years ago, its ok, but you can find just as good and better in quite a few skunk / blues strains from seed with a bit of pheno selection this is my experience anyway
newbies that have invested in this type of clone only hype will not believe it is possible to find a skunk#1 as good as the cheese clone, since they like to believe they have something special or unique
i find this silly, since all plants will be unique to some degree unless they are clones
i guess the clone only hype reminds me of the hipster , philosophy of liking something because its cool or popular, rather than because you actually like it, but each to their own
as long as folk are happy with their plants, clone or seed its all good
peace
