Long time lurker, first time poster! First off, thanks doc for doing a great review! I've never grown anything before but I've been pouring over endless guides, reviews, any info I can find really, and I know I haven't even scratched the surface! I've been looking at a few of Dr. G's strains thinking on acquiring a few for the future, and this one looks great! One question, after all is said and done, how much stretch do you think occurred once you did the flip?

Beautiful looking plants and buds, btw! I really appreciate people like you who share their knowledge with others!

Thanks Dr been waiting a while for this one :bigjoint:. One question what about yield wise between 35 and 45 days......is it worth to wait 45 or you get about the same at 35????? And thanks again for the report really appreciated.

you probably do get somewhat more with the extra 10 days but not that much.the biggest difference seems to be the high.

thank you!
I would say the stretch was about double from where they started.

Plants look great. I've been doing alot of trial and error working with fast flowering plants. I've been working with Stoney Girl Gardens seeds. I'm doing a plant called Cripit now inside. And my plants are finishing with rock hard buds at 40 days. These are harder buds than I've ever grown before. And I've been growing for alot of year. About 30 years anyways give or take a season or two. But these plants are great. There are alot of strains that finish in 6 weeks out there. This Cripit is stoney as hell. Hope your freedon 35 works out for you. I've thought about it myself to try. Maybe after I try these couple other strains I will. My problem is I live in the PNW and I have to be able to harvest mid to late september outdoors or I get PM or Bud Rot issiues. I also am trying another plant called P-91. Shes another fast flowerer. Canadian Seed banks have alot of strains that are fast Companies like Great White North ect. Well just wanted to see whats up with this strain. GL with yours and Keepem Green

Hey I bet we're in the same neck of the woods. I tried some stoney girl genetics this year and got a whole lot of wood out of the deal. Up in norcal it's gotta be on time or nothing, and everything I ran was on time.... except the black moon and pitbull. AAAaaannyway I got a bunch of freedom 35s and my colloidal silver a' flowin' so I got me a grip of beans coming up shortly. I've always wanted to get ahold of the Berkeley "28 day" dad that stoney girl uses for breeding :)

1 out of 10 of my f35's was automatic... so far. 1 retarded IAF. Seed plants, ya know.

anyway here's my review: I called the dr. greenthumb number to order the beans and whomever answered the phone was on a cell phone probably in a truck the way it sounded. I was told to call back -- even though it was 3pm friday and they were supposed to take orders. Called monday, 3pm again, and some chick answered and put me off.. I think I just explained how unimpressed I was with the loady-style service and I wasn't all too kind, so when I called back I used my best monty python voice. Oh well... it's a loady-style bizz ain't it now? Well I got an order in and I guess my bank wasn't straight so it didn't go through. I didn't get any beans and I called back and got another round of "not workin' right now" crap calls in. What-eeevvvz. I got me f35's now and my phone ordering days are in the past 'cause I got the genetics and that is that ;-). Well I'm happy to get the crap service 'cause I'd like to get into the bean factory bizz and if this is what I'm up against I'll be coming up hard-- wut wut :bigjoint:

So not to completely entirely dump on dr. greenthumb 'cause most of the plants are doing fine right now. I suppose a good breeder doesn't have to be a good businessman all around. Plus the last two rounds of runs were (1) dj short busted ass jacked up junk and (2) disappointing stoney girl beans. If these do anything at all I'll hold mr. thumb, excuse me, dr.... in high regard.

Doc is downright grumpy sometimes but i've never gotten anything but stellar strains from there

Ive talked to Doc a few times and the only time i thought he was grumpy was the very first time i talked to him. after the call i thought about the questions i was asking him and figured he had probably heard them many times that day and was tired of the nEwb questions. it made me a little angry but afterward i thought i would get a little short with people too if i heard the same questions over and over.when i got past the general questions and got to the specific, Doc was more then helpful.

Hi gruber was wondering how your clones are doing because am really not impressed with mine.....I made 32 and they were doing great in the dome but now that i transplanted them a week ago i noticed that most of them are turning auto on me i got maybe 5-6 that dont show any signs of autoing on me. I am really happy with the originals from seed got 11 seeds 1 dint germinate at all, 1 went auto and the rest are fine, nice plant looks like its going to be a decent yield but overall if i cant clone them i am really not going to be happy with this strain.
P.S my clones never had darkness they been under 24hrs light............so i dont really know what to say but am shopping for a new strain now dont see how it is going to work out with this one.So overall am pretty disapointed with FREEDOM35.

Sorry for your troubles.
I took 2 clones, one from each plant, 1 of them was just fine, the other went auto on me. Stupid me though....i killed the good one thinking it wasnt the keeper plant.I have 3 more seeds and will pop them soon. When i took the first 2 clones i did it after i put them into flower so i figured it was that...next batch i will take clones way before flower.
If you have 5 or 6 good ones just keep those and clone from them and you could save a good plant.
