Darkstar, TH Seeds.

O yeah I've had em look exactly like that its from excess nitrogen.

They will grow eventually if u cut down on the N but they will always be clawed like that. in my experience its better to just cut em off.
I trim leaves here and there when needed, but try to keep it minimal, dont wanna shock the plant. May get rid of a few, but wont they still do the neccessary functions seeing that they still have clorophyl and havent yellowed?

Cutting them back will promote new growth.

You can leave them lol its ur plant. But it will do no harm to cut them, spread it out over a week if your worried.

And it will make trimming much easier later. Those deformed leaves aren't really gonna do much since its gonna take weeks till they even start growing for a while and there already ruined.

Like I said, just givin a tip, its what I would do/have done.

Yea... i gave it a look over, and there isnt many clawed leaves, so a couple days should clear them out... but as far as new growth, i expect that to only be in the buds really, and maybe the few leaves that come out of that. I dont see em getting replaced this late in flower.. I trimmed a few of em off the hd fruity about 15 min ago. It definitely has a good smell to it.
Thanks for the tip tho, really appreciated. Its nice to know what was causing it now, i dont stress over em like some people that freak at any burnt leaf or sumin. Ill be careful on how many leaves i throw in a pot for now on tho to avoid it in the future. +rep if it lets me.

how far is everybody taking this strain? i had one that went from 1.5' to 4' during the initial stretch. i couldnt handle the canopy with that plant so it was cut up and now i have 2 clones that are 3.5-4' and 4 weeks in. there seeming to like heavier nitrogen feeding but im also getting minor clawing just around the top colas. im running these in organic coco.

after i started these about 4 months ago i also read about thseeds being pretty sucky, i was surprised because they have had so many past favorites (sage,bubblegum) but we will see i guess.i had a clone from a dispensary last year that was "buku". it had beautfial foliage and really symetrical. but it had balls on the main stalk about 1 month in. it was trashed

any more pictures of the darkstar's? loving it!

Ours are about the same place in flowering then.
Does your grow regular, or more kush like, or is the mazar pheno? or do you have something different?

ill post pics tonight, they are rather tall. i believe thats more marzaar i shariff like. after doing research and watching a vid from adam at thseeds, i believe the keeper pheno is more short and bushy then tall like mine. He also said the keepr pheno leans towards purple kush.

right now trich development is pretty good, nothing impressive. the smell is stinky, not like good stinky but weird stinky. looks to have potential. i kinda wish i only had kept 1 clone instead of two, since they take up such a big footprint in my small tent.


hopefully it will be able to handle backpain. most of the time i medicate its because my backs shot from standing/bending over all day at work. it is supposed to be very strong indica, we will see...

how far along is the buku?? i love how mines growing
all the branches hug the stalk and are growing straight up
Man, and I thought it was just mine! Haha, I have my BuKu outside, and was worried about the branches huging the main stem, but some of the longer lower branches are spreading out finally.
There only 9 days old. The sages are growin fastest.
And yeah, I have a S.A.G.E. right next ot my BuKu, it's the fastest growing one in my entire outdoor garden, about to hit 6 feet...Slightly woried about the hermie rumours, but I'll keep my fingers crossed.
i have a sage and kushage going also, their kinda staggered by a few days to several weeks.

Itll be nice to compare the kushage to the emerald jack and see which sativa i like with the og kush better.
Oh man, the Kushage is one awesome stinky plant. I grew one out back in december, it was delicious and when my Kushage freebie bean popped deformed I was totally bummed! Oh well, the BuKu smells sour and pungent and it's still vegging!

As potent as its supposed to be, it should help some at least. I have a short bushy one that looks exactly like the taller branchier one, just a shorter version... We shall see, im defiinitely jarring all 3 seperately so i can give it the smoke test. The mazar one i have doesnt really have a smell, the other two have that kush smell

I like how the branches that hug the stalk have grown up to get more light, really helpful under cfls... Ill have the sage and kushage done within a few weeks of each other. My buku doesnt have a smell i noticed yet, its about a week into flower

Not sure how to describe the smell of mine, but all 3 smell the same. Their not real strong smelling tho.

well i finally rotated my tent around today, honestly the sage looks really nice, but the darkstars smell like old people funk. you know what im talking about, that weird funky poopy sour smell. there also enormous! i wish i would have grown more sage instead. i dont really think theres going to be a whole lot of jar appeal for a strain that stinks so weird. im pretty sure im getting into the last 2 weeks so from now on i will give just water to the darkstars, the sage will get nutes for a week still. im not sure but i think im around week 8 now. i have a new lineup of blackberry og and davie jones to fill my tent with so im kind of in a rush to get the big ass stinky darkstars out as soon as possible.
