Female Seeds C99?

I'd like to add that I finally caved in and decided to try C99 from Female Seeds. She's about 2.5 weeks in flower and just starting get her crown of white hairs. She started off slow but showed sex at about 5 weeks in veg. Two weeks younger than Mr.Nices' Black Widow, she's since caught up during stretch. She is much thinner stemmed than the Widow and has developed some very long branches off the uppermost colas. Currently 7 inches compared to the widows 2.5. The leaves have a slightly thinner and jagged leaf edge, that aren't very long. The structures is leaning sativa and there are a lot of bud sites. I'm still waiting for a pineapple or grapefruit smell, but at the moment, she is showing her Shiva Skunk heritage and smells stronger than the Widow at this point. I'm not buying into the "low profile"/"Not typical pot stench" reviews, but hey this is just one plant and one pheno. Besides the skunk, I get a hint of pine, and a scent reminiscent of a "cheese" strain, when I rub her stems. Since cheese is mainly skunk, that kinda makes sense. So far she's as healthy as can be and motoring along faster than the widow. Out of respect to the widow, I must say that she is built like a tank and could withstand some major winds and rains. Her stems resemble a rose stem! The C99 would probably suffer and not survive those harsher conditions. I'm about a month away from harvesting the C99, so there is plenty of time for things to change as trichs appear and the onset of reproductive maturity. She's cloned easier than the widow and like a previous poster said, she grew roots out of the stem and "down" into the rockwool. She definitely wants to live and flourish. I like the idea of a 7 week sativa that will give me a buzz different from my indica dominant breeds, for variety is the spice of life! View attachment 2733202 Black Widow on left next to C99.

Looking good. I've read a lot of good about C99 but haven't been sure whether to bite the bullet or not. Are you going to do a grow journal?

Im growing some c99 from female seeds currently, for the second time, i love this strain!

Sounds and looks to me like you got super retarded lucky and got the genius leaning side of c99. That is a 15 year mother keeper right there, man. Don't ever let that shit go. I would LOVE to play around with breeding her.

Nice lookin gal Rocky. No mistaking those fan leaves for an Indica. Be sure to let us know your thoughts once you have a chance to puff on her. Still hard for me to envision a sativa done in less than 8 weeks!

I love Female Seeds version of C99. Unfortunately for me, the last two times I was ready to order seeds (March promos) they were sold out by the time I placed an order. I have a freebie C99 from G13 in veg now, but I really don't expect much from it. My experiences with G13 strains have been far from stellar.

I got the seeds from a guy who selected a pheno of FS C99. He made S1s and several people are growing them on another site.
I have smoked lower samples of buds at 42 days and they taste like pineapple and grapefruit.
It is a fast plant. She is definitely a sativa. Look at the sharp serration in the leaves and the elongated blades. I'll put up a pic of her when she was young also.
Here are pics of a clone of her I put in 12/12 two days ago

Oh yeh, in 2012 I grew Mosca's version and I was dissapointed.
This Female seeds one lives up to the hype about finish times, smell, yield.
I'm growing it in peat/perlite mix I use.
I have been force flowering it since June 10th. I put it in the shed each night at 8pm. I bring it out in the morning 12 hours later.
I have just shortened the flower time to 11/13. All last week It was on 11.5/12.5.
I vegged for six weeks. the only thing different than than the indoor plants, is the lighting.
I am using a giant star, and flowering it in the brightest time of year. lol

I posted somewhere else that I'm on a 4th gen clone of a real sweet pineapple mom. I should look into how to make fem beans. [can you get what you need from Amazon?] When I need to pop another c-99, this is the pheno I'd want to get again, but it's not that different from the previous one.

I've got 10 FMS c99 that dropped their safety helmets overnight!

I saw this Tiresias spray in another thread. You're suppose to spray the plant for 21 days, the guy said he ran out of spray after 17 days so you may want to buy two bottles (or you could buy the 4 oz bottle). I'm probably gonna give this stuff a try myself sometime in the future.

I use colloidal silver from GNC. There are GNC's all over the place in my area. The bottle is just about 30 bucks. Spray it each morning for a few days before flipping to 12/12 then for about a week after flower and then sit back and wait. Within a few more weeks pollen pods will be bursting all over.

This is a female seeds C99 at 7wks. If a baby ate a pineapple as large as the baby and then took a massive shit, that would be close to what it smells like. Pineapple baby-poo.

If I had read that description, I would have never ran it....lol. I could never understand why sub couldn't think of another way to describe some of his strains' smells. I mean...who wants that shit?

BTW, thanks for the info on GNC. Just took 4 clones to experiment on.

Do you use the Mbi Neutriceuticals brand? That price is much nicer than paying 18 bucks for that little 1 oz Tiresias bottle on Amazon. So from what I understand 30 PPM is what you're looking for?
