I got straight OG from one of mine. Low yield, tall golf ball tops, need to work the plant to get as many tops as possible to get a good yield. Taste like skunky OG with a hint of lemon. Potent as any other OG.

Nice. I've got one pheno that I have hope for. It's got the right look, smells like diet OG haha. Branches are about as strong as overcooked spaghetti, tiny nugs. It's behind other stuff out of reach so it will be a surprise on chop day. I threw snips of it away after letting them sit in water for a week...pulled them out of the trash 2 days later, back in water, perked back up....Hopefully they will root just in case it's a keeper.

Looking for some advice on budwashing, specifically how to get BT off. First attempt outdoor, wanted to avoid using anything for pests but had to use BT (Bonide brand) after I lost an auto to caterpillars. The spray seemed to have worked in fending them off, but now my plants are covered in a crusty BT buildup (definitely not PM.)

I have a t-100 x TK that otherwise looks and smells fantastic( started grapey, now little grapey with lime and skunk on the backend) tried gently washing a small sample branch in cool water x 4 and the buildup is still visible on fan leaves. I understand BT is ‘safe’ and used in tobacco, but I’m not going to consume it if there is that much BT still visible. Has anyone found a better method to clean this? Otherwise I’ll have to toss her and it’ll be a shame because the other pheno I ran indoors isn’t nearly as nice. Thanks.

Just had to cull the 2 GSC x Chem 91 freebies I had going. One week into flower, both males and not a hint of stamens.

The run before I had 2 Headband x Triangle herm out at week 3 with live pollen hitting the plants to each side. I had a little green light leak from the ph display that could have been an issue, but the other 4 rocked on.

Just the luck of the draw because everything else I’ve run from CSI has been solid!

The 3 Wedding x Sherbet are looking great at week 1 from flip. Anyone run them before? Pics? Description of the high?

Keep it green!

Out of the couple hundred seeds I’ve run from him (all fems) 2 or 3 were male (from his first bubba reversal).

I recently ran his ChemD s1 and it was the most potent plant of my last run, was definitely a keeper. Seems like you have to get lucky with s1's I agree better chances of a keeper with the fem hybrids still.

I will say I did enjoy the smoke, and I'm sure there are plenty on keepers in a good pheno run. But growers like me don't have the space so we cross our fingers lol.

On the S1 topic a few posts ago:

I was listening to a podcast where CSI was talking about S1's, and this is a general summary of what he said from my memory:

"S1's are a close example of the original female plant but there is lots of inbreeding going on. 50-60% of S1's might be throw-away plants due to inbreeding. Rarely will I get the same plant or a replica of the mother that was S1'd. Your pulling from ALL of the DNA that the plant has, that includes recessive and dominate traits. The best and the worst available within the gene pool and that includes the inbred traits. But it also has the chance for coming out with all the best traits. Often times S1's have produced something better than the mother plant."

For example, I ran two Snow S1's this year and a Bubba Kush S1. Both Snows are meh but the bubba is phenomenal so far.
(if those snow s1's where taller, chunkier plants they would have been keepers :P)

I'll be posting some harvest pics and smoke updates on Humboldt's Most Wanted here pretty soon. She's the first CSI gear to be cut down this year.
I lobbed a Dosidos x Obama Kush from Redbeard already and have been LOVING her delicious flowers so far.

yeah i wanted to post this but i couldnt remember which podcast or exactly what he said lol. I clearly remembered him saying S1s were less for the casual grower and more for someone looking into breeding and pheno hunting packs. The thought of finding something better than the desired S1 is a pretty cool thing, its tempted me but i dont have the time or space to wade through some duds
