Hey Hepcats, I thought we'd turn the temperature down and talk about one of the forum's favorite breeders. I've read about this guy over and over, read his article on the CC which changed my view on that fiasco forever, and have not read enough reviews on his strains.

I'm looking at Jack the Ripper for the sativa potency, or F13 by DJ Short for my next purchase, has anyone grown either?

What strains have you tried and what would you recommend - from either personal trial or word of mouth.

I've summarized most of Subcools seedbank listed strains below, I'll add more if I find them. Please add any strain that you know about that I'm missing.

Here's Hemp Depot's descriptions:

Jack the Ripper

Jacks Cleaner P1 X Space Queen

A true 8 week Sativa Haze the first thing growers notice is the incredible lemon smell and heavy resin production. It has been described by UK growers as the best 8 week haze ever produced.

This plant will produce triangle shaped spear buds that pretty much stopped active calyx growth early and produced copious amounts of resin instead, resin production was evident from day 12 in 12/12 but really started to fatten up the heads around day 50 or so.

I find it performs best untopped with a long vegetive period. The high is very creeper at first you may think that its not so strong but then whammo...it hits you hard and there's no turning back then...you will be deep in thought and meditative for quite some time...the duration and intensity is strong and thought provoking.

Phenotypes: Two main phenotypes both with a Lemon Haze smell and short growth one tends to be more a pine smell.

Height: Look for the Short Pheno/ Colas swell late

Yield-Medium: Heavy / Moderate trim work

Best way to grow: Untopped and vegged to a full bush.

Harvest Window: 8-9 weeks

Sativa/Indica: 70/30

Hybrid: Pluton X Purple Haze X Lambsbread X NL X Jack Herer X Romulan X Cindy99BCGA

High type: Intense, trippy, visual, phase shifting, increased heart rate, heavy crash, increased appetite, pain relief, paranoia

Taste Like: Lemon mango pine hash with a heavy haze influence

-------------------------------------------

Jacks Cleaner 2

I truly feel it’s the most dominant strain I have ever worked with. Lemon and resin are always passed on in spade, these are very stable displaying only a couple of phenotype, no matter which phenotype you get its heavily lemon, mango fruit and will produce large thick plants with an exceptional high. Developed: TGA (Spain)

  • SOG Suitable
  • Heavy Odour
  • Lemon and ground coffee aroma

You dont really have to be a master breeder to figure out orange and pineapple mango flavour traits will be a good combination. The resulting outcross is remarkably stable and is close to a 50/50 representation of the parents. Topped it grows into a nice short bush with lots of side Branching and multi heads. Flavours range from orange, Tang,candy ,Mango,and apple. The cross works really well in SOG Or Scrog . Very Large stems and huge top colas make this an easy strain to grow in any medium.

Excellent breeding gene pool, high potency, high yield with excellent bag appeal.

I'll get both eventually but which would you pick to grow next?

Jack The Ripper - seems amazing except for the heavy crash and parranoia. Does anyone know how extreme or common these effects are?

vs

F -13 - DJ Short

Flo x Blueberry

A Holy Grail plant of four-star excellence. Previously unreleased, a very desirable product and potential breeder. A more sativa hybrid of medium height with long, spear-shaped, dense and resinous buds and an earlier finish-time than most sativa.

The superfluous quality of the finished product is remarkable: A clear, clean, crisp head of the kindest order. This girl really rings the bell every time! Not for the couch-lock crowd, this heady sativa is for those who truly enjoy its stimulating yet comfortable appeal. A real day-brightener. DJ's personal favorite from this batch.

Indoor Flowering 7 - 9 weeks

.

F-13 is a top quality connoisseur variety developed with the indoor soil grower in mind. Even so, it adapts well to hydroponic systems, performing especially well in organic-based aquaponic or aeroponic setups. It has also been tested in outdoor gardens at 45 degrees north lattitude, where it performed well.

The parents of F-13 are a dynamic duo from DJ Short's Delta-9 Blue Collection. The mother strain, Flo, is an early maturing sativa/indica hybrid with the unique ability to produce a continuous harvest of tight spear-shaped buds. Her buzz is energetic and extremely clearheaded, a true "wake and bake" pot with a flowery smell and fruity undertones in the flavor. The Blueberry father is a superstar of connoisseur cannabis known for its cool blue hues and signature blueberry taste, along with its long lasting, euphoric high.

In F-13, this combination results in a slightly sativa-dominant hybrid that branches into a medium-sized, bushy plant, especially when topped. Her thin, sativa-like leaves are dark green, often developing red and lavender hues as she matures. F-13 thrives on organic nutrients with plenty of good worm castings and bat guano. Keep other feeding light, especially where nitrogen is concerned.

F-13 finishes in approximately 8-9 weeks indoors with a yield between 1-2 ounces per square foot when the light input is at least 50 watts per square foot. Another measure of expected yield is 1 gram per watt of light when conditions are optimal. In outdoor grows, harvest is in late September to mid or late October depending on the latitude.

This hybrid forms tight, elongated spear- or spade-shaped buds that release a sweet musky odor while growing. The high is a creeper that takes between 20 minutes and an hour to reach its peak. The refreshing quality of the high is comfortable yet awake, making it weel suited for social situations. F-13 is a lucid and truly enjoyable daytime smoke that tapers off into a dreamy feeling. Overall this variety is very motivational when used in moderation. It retains the flavors of fruit and flower that are signatures of DJ's Blue strains, making it a good choice for any flavor connoisseur.

Will be fantastic but will it have the potency of JTR?

i would grow jack the ripper because i like how the shape of the buds supposedly grow like spears. also it says it has a very deep thought high which would be nice. also i hear alot more people going with F13 so i would like to see a jack the ripper grow for a change. plus cause right now im low on money jack the ripper is cheaper. 10 seeds for 75 bucks and for f13 its 165 for 10 seeds.

I agree, JTR sounds fantastic. I'm going to get 2 strains, I'm thinking 2 of these 3 - JTR, Jillybean and Pandoras Box. Which two would be best for depresssion/bi-polar/anxiety? Subcool if you're around your advice would be much appreciated. I've got a fairly high tollerance from years of poor quality weed, JTR sounds right but Pandoras Box sounds potent too.

thanks for advice guys! (ie give advice please)

.

Pandora's Box

Jack the Ripper x Space Queen

Location: indoor;
Type: mostly sativa;
Flowering: ~63 days;
No feminized seeds.
Known Phenotypes: » new » none up to now (homogenous??)


The buzz is up, speedy, very shit eating grin and smiling like a Cheshire cat like high. It’s a bit smoother than JTR and has a different feel in the head less haze influence. I can’t tell where the ceiling is as every bowl I smoke I seem to get a bit higher until the point my vision blurs. Not for light weights. I can’t stop grinning when I smoke this weed.

* Phenotypes: Large Triangle shaped glass covered rock hard buds are all we see.
* Height: Wide thick sweeping arms with weighted colas that need support after 50 days/medium
* Yield: For a strain of this potency I think this thing yields like crazy.
* Indoor has only been tested so far
* Best way to grow: Topped and bound/Vegged to a large bush
* Harvest Window: 9 weeks
* Sativa/Indica: 60/40
* Hybrid: Jack the Ripper X Space Queen
* High type: Zooming, Happy, Grinning, anti depressant BIGTIME!
* Smells: It taste like NL5 to me but its very industrial with a slight citrus taste and a undertone of spice and hash One female has been named Cherry Lethal lemonade.

i know im not subcool but since your asking, you might as well get the pandoras box since it has JTR in its genetics.

I was thinkin' of getting some TGA/Subcool seeds because I like the stuff Subcool says, and it seems there isn't any bullshit drama swirling around him...Oh, and I've never read a bad smoke review from anything coming from a TGA seed.

Some cool selection of meds, too. Purple stuff, orange stuff, crack effects, zombie effects...Seems like fun.

"i know im not subcool but since your asking"

Cyproz your advice is always appreciated! Pandora's Box sounds like more of an antidepressant strain than JTR, but does it have the potency? Jillybean has this description on Bidzbay - High type-Happy, mood enhancing, humorous, energetic - it sounds like a perfect antidepressant strain, but how potent is it? I know JTR will be incredibly potent but Subcool's advertising says there's a heavy crash at the end - and will it be as good of a mood elevator as Jillybean or Pandora's Box?

Pandora's Box isn't listed at Cannaseur (I'll email them about it), have to get it at Bidzbay. I wanted to order from Cannaseur because they give a free pack of TGA seeds with every TGA order, we get a third strain free.

The prices are so ridiculously reasonable that I had to pick up all 3 - I'd be wondering what the missing strain was like, it'd be torture.

So - Pandora's Box, Jillybean and Jack the Ripper for $110 USD.

I feel like a thief.

One other thing - mail in payments if we live outside the UK. I'm sure credit/debit card payments will be available in a short time but it's a pain in the ass right now.

Hate going to the bank ... always takes forever ... always too hot on the dirve ... too many ugly, ugly people ... way to cold in the bank and I'll catch phenomina ... so upset can't even spell phenomia .... stupid seedbank!
