Let me add in for you, I was recently in the Dam smokin this at Barneys. Seriously tasty shit, one of my absolute favorites in all of Amsterdam. i was there for a month too, smokin my brains out!

I liked it so much, I brought some home to enjoy myself. Started them in coco ebb and flow system. Should be hella YUM

I finally just orderd a pack of vanilla kush and violator kush during this august promo so I can also try out the shortstuff autos. Ive had my indoor cycles going along with a big outdoor medical grow with a friend of mine and we've been harvesting different autos now for a couple of months, mainly the easy ryder from lowryder, which was averaging around 2oz per plant outdoors, all in 5gl pots, also had hindu kush, purple gems and 60day wonder, all of which surpassed my expectations for quality and yield. I currently have the 3 nirvana autos going, 6 grassomatic C+ X ak's, flower power and one dinafem auto and I have to say all these little bumper harvests have been great to tide us over, really they've just been a joy to watch, this is the first year Ive started running autos and atleast for me there here to stay. My last couple of packs I got regular easy ryders going seperate so I can get a bunch of seeds, which we just pollinated 2 plants a few weeks ago, which is the first time Ive intentionally pollinated a plant. Having a blast, cant wait for the outdoor to get done, its going to be huge, have to invest in a bud trimmer cause I dont want carple tunnel after harvest. Good luck to everyone, Peace!

There is 2 very distinct phenos, Indicia and Super Indicia..super indicia pheno has leaves bigger than basketballs on my 18inch plant

Nice nice :mrgreen:

Got a couple of questions - was that just one plant under the 1600w of light? and what type of light (HID, CFL, LED)?

Thanks :blsmoke:

Interesting that the cats that said it was good shit only have a few posts under their belts. I'm growing VK right NOW. I will chop it on the 18th. Of my VK I will say that it streached WELL beyond what the breader said it would, and the main cola is STILL very airy. This may be due to using a new soil that I'm going to kick to the curb. My LSD ended up pretty large too. The main cola of the VK DOES smell of vanilla of some sort....I just can't place an exact. It's a very heavy sent too, and very original compared to others that have passed my grow room. It's sticky as well. I think she will, despite the airy cola, produce a good amount of bud. When I chop it, it will be day 62 of flower. As of today the caylxes have not swelled that much. The LSD has (caylxes) swelled so much that the main cola on one of them looks sort of frankenstein, but my other one looks like she needs another 3 weeks to finish....hmmmmm????

I would say my Vanilla Kush is about 36-40" and I had to LST it to keep it under/off the light....but had to do the same with one of the LSD's too. The other LSD is right around 20-22". That plant is producng some pretty good bud at internodes on the side branches so that will=decent harvest!!! Internode spacing on the large VK/LSD is close to 6" resulting in a 10-12 node (total) plant. Had they been compact the results could have been better, however having the extra space between nodes has produced some decent lower bud sites.


Peace out

I am growing a 5 pack of vanilla right now... I am cutting one down tomorrow. On this particular pheno the leaves are very fat and wide and very dark green as well, all the way up to harvest. It is very easy to grow... I will show you all some picks. Fuck the hype it just looks resiny as fuck and thats next to widow, diesel, lemon haze and jack. It smells vaguely of some mildly skunky lavender-vanilla, its a very original aroma for me. I dont care what anyone says this shit is fire based on looks and smell alone and I have harvested some killer strains. I cant wait til its cured. these next 3 weeks are going to be painstaking.

I'm putting a vk into flower in next few days, the stem is twice as wide as any of my ww, the leaves twice as big and the lushness is unbelievable! cloning to death tonight and flowering the stalk:wink:​

Reviving this thread to give my perspective. I'm about nine weeks into flower and have both VK and LSD going with a nearly identical review as Chief. Both stretched an incredible amount, large internode spacing, VK is still a bit airy for sure. LSD has spawned the first few red hairs and looks much better- tighter buds and many more bud sites. When in veg, LSD was very bushy but through flower it has stretched into the light; far more than expected. VK shot straight up from the start. Both strains are very potent smelling and unique compared to previous grows, although I can't pick out any vanilla scent. Can't say I'm disappointed, but I was hoping for a bit better performance out of the Kush. Hopefully all is forgotten when I've smoked some. :-P

I'm not a frequent poster, but I'm often lurking. When I purchased the Barney's seeds, I checked a lot of reviews and I'm now returning the favor to other inquirers. Next up (now germing) - Barney's G13/Haze, Red Diesel, and UFO's Lemon Skunk. Will report on those in the future.

I will add my opinion as i am sitting here looking at two primo nugs that my mobile delivery guy brought me. God damn man I opened the jar and got smacked in the face with vanilla, the pheno that he got and grew out absolutely smacks of the smell. Nugs are SUPER dense and resiny i am very impressed flavor wise i dont really taste the vanilla but it hits like oldschool kush i used to get back in the 90's. I still run across it occasionaly but its hard to find this vanilla kush expands super sick too in the lungs has a great hit to it and packs a mean punch its a lovely lovely strain i would love to add it to my garden. Now lets just hope the pheno i get out of the pack of seeds i order is a super indica =)

i'm gorowing both the vk and the lsd as well. about 8 weeks into flower. the vk shot up and stretched like mad. didn't expect that. had to LST it to keep it in my tent. seems to be slower to mature than the LSD. the LSD is shorter and more dense. smells fantastic and looks like it will be a good producer. eager to see how it smokes. overall, not impressed with the vk. i don't think it's going to give me nearly as much as the LSD. unless the smoke is outstanding, i doubt i'd grow it again.

i love my vanilla kush - i got one free from attitude as well as barney's pineapple chunk - both produced fairly well, but what is amazing is the flavor from both of these came out really exquisite - i will be saving these away.. they rival super lemon haze for the overall flavor and stone..
