by later I mean /wayy/ later ;).

edit: there is definitely a different leaf structure in the other one bro. it has a thicker stem, grows a lot like the bubba pheno but different.

I'll have to take pics to show you for sure.

that reminds me, I saw someone else with a bubba kush clone, it was the first plant that stood out to me because it looked so much like the bubba phenotype!


also, it appears I have 3 different phenotypes . . . . I swear I have that canadian indica . . . I'll take pics later.

but I can tell you this, the bubba kush has thinner sharper pointed leaves, the sativa pheno has wider lighter leaves, and the canadian indica type has big thick indica leaves that are bigger than the bubba pheno but smaller than the sativa pheno with darker leaves and a thicker stem . . . . .


I'll take pics to prove my findings later, but there is DEFINITELY 3 different leaf types here.

leaves are only a small part of determining phenotypes.. you also got alot of other mitigating factors.. such has node space/growth pattern or profile, calyx size{indicas have bigger rounder calxes with a thicker hair then sativas. } and ohter shit too. i think when shit is budding out you will find there is only 2 phenos

yeah I was looking at very very subtle growth factors. after taking pics I really see no major differences between the two that would even establish anything but two phenotypes so I guess that settles it.


also, I thought indicas had smaller calyxes, just a LOT more of them, making up a denser bud? because my sativas have huge calyxes, just not a lot of them, so it makes for fluffy bud.

your sativa has big calyxes cuzz they were grown outside.. but im more talking about shape then size. but indicas have thicker pistils

I agree with the thicker pistils, but I have indica bud that was grown outside (by someone else of course) that has smaller calyxes than my sativa, but much much more of them (the pistils are thicker too)

so I'm pretty sure indica is based on smaller calyxes with thicker pistils making up a very dense bud :D

edit: here's one of my outdoor buds from 2 years ago, indica dominant

see bro? small calyxes, huge pistils :D

then you were growing sativa dom hybrids... look at a pure south east asian sativa close up.... then look at a pure indica close up.. u will see the s.e. asian sativa has smaller calyxes that are more ice cream cone shaped with longer thinner pistils that never get too large to were there packed into one another..... and a pure indica has bigger, more teardrop shaped calyxes that swell soo much there packed like sardines in a can:mrgreen:

also generally speaking sativas have a better flower to leaf ratio then indicas

sorry bro I've just not seen that sort of calyx development on indica, I truly believe it is more of a sativa thing, probably african sativa.


didn't you see that bud I posted? that's definitely an indica dominant hybrid, atleast 85%


edit: perhaps there are different kinds of indicas that don't have huge calyxes? idk...

jeeze bro I'm just trying to figure shit out, sorry that I don't believe everything you say on the drop of a dime . . . . . it just doesn't make sense that I've seen indica dominant strains with small calyxes and huge pistils if it isn't part of the indica strain . . . . .

but whatever bro, it doesn't matter anyways I guess.

How long you veg your clones after rooting? I would expect about 2 weeks to be perfect to let them start to fill out the root system. What's your experience? how many weeks vegging after root before flipping the switch is "best".
