I really put a ton of effort into controlling stretch in my room, the sk1 x ss is a stretcher.. I believe if I had flowered them traditionally without manipulating the stretch, she would have stretched much more. Some phenos will stretch more than others, but all in all she does stretch pretty good. How long have you vegged her and under what type of light?
I’m at around 50 days or so. I veg and flower under qb’s so they stay a little squatter

I’m at around 50 days or so but they were stunted a bit as seedling (my fault). I veg and flower under qb’s so they stay a little squatter

The PNWHP/BLACK Dom x SS is probably one if my favorite plants in the room right now. Its extremely fast and very frosty and the smell is straight old school danky funk. I have some of them going outdoors too, so not sure yet on the end result but the pheno I have indoors is 100% a keeper, I don't have to smoke her to tell.. The entire trich is visible from literally standing a few feet away from her, huge long thick fat trichs... Solid buds from top to the bottom of the branch. I think she will be done by day 50...55 at most. Hope you got a similar pheno.
Yeah, the PNWHP/BLACK Dom x SS are the best smelling and the most vigorous out of all the plants that I'm growing this year. It's a beautiful strain, I got a male that is more stinky than any of the females so far.

Any training? LST? Topping? One thing I can recommend is not to top those skunks immediately before flowering, wait at least a week (when you see new growth). I'd veg em 60 days if it were me, then flip. At that point, you can control the stretch with a little LST. Tomato cages are excellent for this, I always use them.

The stem rubs on the PNWHP blkdom x as are very loud, I will agree... The flower is strong too, I'm curious to see how the other phenos I have outdoor turn out in the end. I'll keep updated.

In my case, the stem rub did not directly correlate with the flower, but the flower is still rank! The stem rubs are very very skunky and hashy.

No training or topping so far, just going to leave it natural and deal with any stretch using lst

Yours is looking great! I am pretty sure I have a couple phenos doing this same thing. I will go check this evening, if I can get a minute and I'll snap a few pics. I am pretty sure these are very single cola dominant plants, so when you try to train and prune on them, they can do some funky things. I topped mine several times when it was younger. I've not checked on my outdoor plants in over 2 weeks, so I know I'm in for a surprise!! Well, let's just hope it's a good one. Lol.
Thanks! I’m happy with it so far—odd growth notwithstanding. I really like the stem rub on this one too. Stands out from the other ones so far. It is a gross almost berry thing with a bit of dark fruitiness. I’m pretty bad with these kind of descriptions, but that’s what I get from it at this point.

Well I got some good news... Was doing a little maintenance work a couple nights ago and couldn't stop messing and smelling of one the Americanna plants, that oily dumpster smell is just so addicting!!

You barely brush up on a bud of this stuff and it leaves your skin extremely oily and sticky! Unbelievable the amount of frost and "finished " look to it already at day 43!

So I proceeded to chop a small bud and lay it on top of the dehumidifier for a quick dry, to test it. It was still slightly moist on the inside when I checked it tonight, i said what the hell and rolled it up into a very small pinner joint. I took a few hits off it, was hard as hell to get burning. Went down smooth and the last drag was a big one, got me coughing pretty hard.

So I sit back and wait, did not feel much at first. This shit is a creeper!! Wham! Straight behind the eyes and frontal lobe of the cranium. Then quickly followed by an extreme amount of rushing energetic euphoria throughout the body. This is a high I have not had in YEARS! This is true old school shit. Its sticking with me now for over an hour and just keeps feeling like it's getting stronger! I'm literally baked. Very unique! One minute your thinking something, then 10 seconds later it hits you and you forget the thought your so dazed off about, you go from one daydream to the other, over and over while forgetting the last one you had... AKBB had told me the Americanna has this effect, almost an alzheimers effect. It sure does...

Also, for whatever reason I cant stop feeling like I need to burst out laughing at simply all my thoughts... I've already scared the dog out of sleep cause I'm giggling out loud... This is some fire! I'm keeping this bad girl, I cannot WAIT to try the rest.

Akbb highly recommends this one due to its extreme high and stanky smell... definitely feeling the nl5haze in her!

How many Americanna females you end up with? Sounds tasty!

I’ve been curious about Americanna. Early smoke test sounds awesome. On JBC, it says a 77 day flower time, which would be a challenge outdoors, but good to know there are some (potentially) earlier phenos in there. I’ll be curious when it actually finishes up, and what variation there is btwn phenos—if you have a few different ones going.

Appreciate the updates. Cheers.

Those are 2 tknl5 haze nl dom phenos I got from a pack, 9 weeks could have gone alittle more but very pleased both trichd out, light feeders, extremely pm resistant, both are very squat and extremely dense. I’d say 1 1/2 oz on one and 2 on the other.. these where just 1 gallon soil. Did an smoke test a week and a half ago and ya there both above average then can’t wait till now! Think I’m gonna keep both to be honest. Oh and I stress my testers pretty hard, to route out any hermies and they are 100% solid zero male flowers(only 2 phenos tho)

Hey just want to say i've been reading through a lot of this thread and really appreciate your work and contribution. Im just curious, i got the current seed list from AKBB to make an order, is the Americanna you're referring to the Americanna Big Skunk Bx? Thanks. And also i still have a lot of this thread to go through but i'll still ask, how are the Beatrix choice coming along? Really looking forward to what you guys will get from these

So what's the deal with AK? Like, what's the legit most intense strain he's got? I know the tknl5haze is supposed to be pretty wicked, but what's this Americanna? and the Darian Gap? and has anybody grown that Trendkill Skunk yet? Is it that for real true skunk, or just another "sort of" skunk? I'm sorry if I sound rude or anything like that, I don't mean to, but I know that is how it might come off... I'm just super broke right now and don't know where to put my money... it seems like everything is being called killer, so please only people who have actually smoked the finished product please chime in if you can. I'm lookin' for that smoke that is too much... you know what I mean... tell it to me straight, does AK have it, or rather has anybody found it?
