Barney's Farm Pineapple Chunk Fem

well since this thread reappeared i may as well give the final verdict. this shit was positively awesome. finished in about 9 weeks (could have went another week but i was running out of room in my veg tent). it had a very sweet candy smell, similar to the super lemon haze i grew, but the buds were fatter. it finished very frosty, and the taste was superb. it was definately an indica stone but not a couchlock, 7.6/10. i managed to accidentally reveg the harvested plant and now i have a few clones of the shit. my pheno was just awesome. plus it got pollinated by another strain i liked so i'm actually growing its offspring as we speak.

I guess I should say Hi all since this is my first reply or post. I'am on my second grow with pineapple chunk from Barney's. I got a little over 3 oz,s from the first grow. I was so impressed with the first plants that I started a 2cd grow with them, along with Barney's Blue Cheese & Barney's White Widow. The smoke is mild smells like orange peels to me and a very strong buzz. I'am not a pro gardeneer (or speller) so it makes me wonder why all the negs for these seeds. out of the 10 fem seeds I purchased 9 of them sprouted and the last 6 are about 2 weeks from being done.:-o

I grew pineapple chunk also when it first came out and I have to agree with mary wanna ...mine came out great with no issues and was bout 3 ft. tall and was kick ass....my leaves were fat and the buds were tight...the smoke was definitely like a fruit taste...I got 1 & 1/2 ounces dried off of each plant. I had 4....

Stay away from Pinepple Chunk. It's a sativa plant that grow verry verry tall and is verry fluffy. So tall that i need to put the plant to the garbage cause the plant take all the place in my little tent. I can usually grow 4 plants but this one stretch too much. If you have space (like 7-8 feet high grow room) go for it but its not worth it at my opinion. Waste of time! (Warning: Pineapple Chunk can easily stretch and reach 6 foot of fluffy buds) The plant is over rated.

did mine outdoor - grew to maybe 7 ft with nice dense buds - not giant fat colas, but certainly not fluffy in my case.. Maybe it is too tall for indoor, but i enjoyed the results very much!

My Pineapple Chunk is only about half the size of my other starters(LSD, VK, LS, SLH). This this normal or did I just get a bad seed?
 
Huge range of phenos some are tall some are short, wispy and dense, ect. Some taste and smell different, it is just new and hasnt been stabilized get.

Yeah Pineapple Chunk may have beautiful structure but until I flowered it, it turned to shit. Its only prolly 3-4' high and the light is about 15-18" above the canopy and the buds are just airy as fuck!! First time around I learned my PC hated nutrients so I had to curve down this time around, the buds started forming great until a few weeks ago. They are coming to the end of their 7th week. Im using foxfarm nutes in conjunction with atamis bloombastic for bud density. This is the first plant to give me these kind of problems, never had airy bud like this until the PC came along. She just keeps stretching her bud nods so the compactness kind of disappeared when that happened and now it just looks like a mess, Ill get some pics up once I can get my camera fixed but this will deff be the last time Im growing it. I got a shit ton of seeds from my first PC which I didnt know hermied until after harvest.Gonna be moving on to bigger and better things like Industrial Plant and Star-47 :) maybe Cinderella 99 in the mix while Im at it. Cheers!! Happy Hunting!!

Day 46 chunk.jpg46 chunk.jpgDay 46 pine chunk.jpgLove to see those pics. I am day 46 flowre and they beauties! I just found out that PC doens't like too much nutes so I am going to water/flush tomorrow night. Nice big fat, dense nugs. Topped 1 and got 6 or 7 colas. Lst'd one and is a nice fat bush and let another one go normal. All 3 were clones. Under 1000hps, fox farm nutes, sweet, hit em up with a little mollasses.

Checked the trics tonight and filling in nicely. Very fruity smell and dank feel. Funny thing is, these clones are from my buddy who is still learning the ropes (as am I don't get me wrong) but he will get about 1/4-1/2 oz dry off 3 plants. I am hoping to get at least 9 zips. Feasable right?

bump bump. Pineapple chunk has been fun as hell so far. I have heard various times when people harvest. I have heard 60 days, 70 days and 90 days flower. I am at 48 and if all the fun starts coming now towards the end...I CAN'T WAIT!

Ive seen a diary where someone left PC go for 106 days. The buds were monsters but more looser sativa type buds.

I have 2 on the go now..stretched like hell, had to bend the tops on one of em last night as theyre just getting out of control. Its too early to say how long flowering will take to finish. I really want/need to get another harvest/cure in before xmas and im already cutting it fine - im hopin that the PC doesnt make that an impossibility.

I went with PC cuz Barneys had it down as an indica dom plant that finished within 60 days and yields well, but more importantly it seemed suitable for restricted height scenarios like my setup (got ~ 1.75mtrs to work with).. So I have to say I am a little shocked/surprised/disappointed with what I have ended up with.. if it comes up with the goods there will be some satisfaction, but if i have to pull these cuz of poor performance then I am giong to be v disappointed to put it mildly, and will fukk me up in more ways than one as I will have to source bud elsewhere.

I also have a strong prefernce for hard tight nugs. Doesnt have to be v strong, i just like hard buds, so this is another thing thats in jeprody due to Barneys poor marketing..
