DARK GREEN,very hollow but fibrous branches,dense,long,thick,responds very well to bending ,topping and stripping. large right out of the gate like CanPlyPlds. had some volunteers pop up outside and they did very well the first two months in below freezing without protection and with care that bordered on neglect.Strong and willing to survive. The volunteers were dug up(ranging from 6"-24" tall) and put through transplant hell on a long and brutal hike that consisted of alot of brush breaking and some serious thrashing about.they were in a large plastic tote ,like a large ice chest. Went into a new totally overgrown area with the tote,500' of waterline,a couple of pitbulls and some beer. The hike sucked because the creek was not running where it was when we found it two years ago.Three miles straight down thru poison oak thicketts and berry bushes ripe with thorns,dead brush that would break underneath you and send you crashing and bouncing down the cliff ,finally decided to turn around and the tote became a brush breaker on the way back up. finally found the h20 and the volunteers were in great shape after a very long day that started by being dug up ,stuck in containers,thrown into a dark container,then thrashed and basically beat the fuck out of. THEY ARE RESILIENT to say the least.

the one thing that i will never know is what strain did these Canadian PolyPloids start with?Also , i would like to go over the stability -instability of these plants. we talked about the gene modification creating the instability and causing the hermies.what we never got into was something in the first post that started this discussion,(thnx by the way for all the interest),this what is really interests me, i always go 24/7 until sexing or flowering with clones. i had the CanadianPolyPloids going 24/7 and they started showing pistols after only 3 weeks.they were already a foot tall and thick and so fuckin dark green, they kept flowering and growing and getting thick with buds and the lights were still 24/7,at 3 months they were huge and still flowering and growing like crazy and still 24/7, they had to go elsewhere as they had taken over the place and stunk like crazy,so outside for a couple days and then new grow room at my nephews place.they were outside for only two days and they all went hermie.moved two weeks later,totally cut back and they took off again, with small hermie flowers here and there.
the question is, i wonder what would happen in a large ,very large grow room with 24/7 for 6 months or more. i had 24/7 for three months and i top the fuck out of them and still were 6 feet tall and monster bushes. maybe someday in a perfect world...........i will get to find out, hey Jspaz the ones that got crossed and eliminated most of the CPP hermie properties that we hiked in are going insane

As far as I know the original seeds would have been what was available in the mid-seventies, probably sativa of some sort, but it's been crossed so many times since that it hardly matters. The polyploids have so much vigor they tend to dominate the hybrids, much like african bees will (if cross bred) dominate european bee strains.
