I ended up grabbing a 4 pack of the C99. Sounds like the pineapple pheno is the keeper. If all goes well I'll be coming back to this thread later on in the year to offer my own report.
Ok, so I'm Sold on FMS C99... Grew their Lemon Kush last year and it was some good smoke (although no lemon on my 3 phenos), so that was a bit disappointing. Nothing but good (great !) reports on their C99 so I'm sending my order next week !![]()
Ive grown many c99 and never have they been ready at 52 - 55 days, more like 60 - 75 days..
I haven't grown the original nor females release but from what I've read real C99 is, like you say, a 50 day strain for sure. Cheers man.In all fairness,in everyones defense, we are talking 16 years later -release/redo/reload of genetics. Unless someones holding original packs from heaven stairway, you going to have to take the breeders word on the redo of these genes. I know there are a few people out there that do have the originals on ice. Some of female seeds c99 do look legit but anything over 50-52 days isnt. Ive done multiples and she never hermied, always finished within those days. was not a big yielder either. sativa thin leaves never broad leaves. tall,lanky orange hairs on bud .
What's the final report on the smoke og? I have one in flower now about 3 weeks, same deal lots of leaf serration and thin sativa leaves
