I mentioned a page or two back about having multiple BB phenos going, with very different appearances. Finally got around to taking a couple pics.
First, the pretty girl:


Now the ugly duckling:

She ain't pretty, but somebody told me once that ugly girls try harder. ;)

These are from the same pack, germed at the same time, treated the same way in the same tent.

Edit: just noticed even the decent looking one has 8 fingered leaves. Blueberry is such a genetic mess. :)

That is how my crinkle leaf blueberry looked from dutch passion 2002, those came from the 200 beans DP bought from Jd short in 2000 or 2001.

That pheno was extreme frosty, hard hitting indica with great grape jelly flavor.

Good luck and hopefully your crinkle leaf is a gem in the rough.

Hey guys I forgot to mention after Mike’s reply about his Haze. Here’s his answer ......
“I'm actually working with a couple Hazes, have been for years. I have a particular good one from a good customer in Oregon that I'm currently working with.”
Hope all is well with all you growers. I’ll be popping seeds very soon!!

I wonder if he's eventually going to work on a Northern Lights x Haze, and how it would compare to Sensi's because it's a really well-loved strain of theirs. Exciting!

Good day growers! Anybody here growing in living soil? I’m about to start some soil experiments today. Germinated a bunch of my own bag seeds for testing. I want the best for these Peak beans

Just placed an order, opted to send cash and Mike didn't disappoint. $40 per pack, free shipping, arrived in 2 days and I got much more than I ordered :). Our Canadian seedsmen are pretty good, JOTI is pretty much 2 for 1 as well and given the CAD-USD exchange rate I don't see a better deal out there, for us Canucks at least.

Skunk Berry
C99
Kush c99
20 pack mixed

Not sure where to begin!

Haven't grown Kush x C99, but have done the other two. For a general guideline, if you want to pheno hunt for a keeper mom, go for Cindy. If you want a consistent F1, pop the Skunkberry.

The Kush x C99 is a newer offering, so I wouldn't expect it to be as consistent as the SB, but it has quality parents. I've grown the KxBB and the KxNL and they were solid. I preferred the KxBB of the two.

Good luck whatever you decide.:mrgreen:

Thanks for the solid info. How do you find the C99 in terms of anxiety/paranoia?

I don't get any negatives from Peak C99. For me and my physiology, it is the best up daytime high I've found so far. It's happy and energetic and increases my enjoyment of both humour and music.

The only anxiety/paranoia has been from a couple of his Sweet Skunk crosses. When I'm already stressed, both SSxC99 and SSxNL have induced/increased anxiety. Strangely, I've never felt it from the pure SS, only the crosses.

I have not run Peak C99 but did run some FDM C99. It was great with no anxiety with 4 phenos. I doubled the ususal dose one night to 6 tokes and about lost my shit. I was glued to a chair and going warp speed not knowing if I would survive. Was a total trip. So you can overdue this strain imo but it was a solid trip as well as being unnerving.

Skunk Berry is an easy to grow plant with more of a hybrid effect. Very pretty with good yields

C99 has a few different grapefruit and pineapple phenos. All were good, but the pineapple pheno that also smelled of rotten meat during flowering was exactly like the original c99. Very strong and easy to over indulge.

Kush x c99 has the most variety of any peak strain I have run. I found the grape one above. One that leaned strongly towards c99 but was almost more cheesy smelling and more of a hybrid effect and had a very heavy yield.

Cheers :)

I’m so glad there are experienced Peak growers here. Are there any that you’d avoid growing outdoors?

I live near Toronto and want to put four plants in my garden in late May. Just wondering if any strains would have mold or pest issues, or if the season might be too short. I’d love to have a mix of indica, sativa and hybrid outside, and I could clone the ones that I have growing downstairs right now.

What would you recommend? Thanks.

There are very fast c99's. I had one that was ready indoor at day 49 from flip. I also ran a few c99 outdoors, they didn't get to finish like everything where I live lol, but they held up to the weather well. Just make sure indoors or out you support c99 really well.

Texada x NL was mold city outdoors. But texada x Skunk did great. Kush Berry also did well outdoors along with Kush Skunk.

Cheers :)

It's good to see your experience and mine are very similar. I take it to mean I'm learning to assess with some accuracy.
I remember when I started, just the idea of a smoke report baffled me. I mean, you smoke and you get high, right? What else is there to it?
Being able to describe a plant and how it grows and what to expect was a new world, with a new vocabulary, and seemed pretty intimidating.
There's still lots to learn but it's nice to feel I'm starting to get it. Another 80 or 90 years and I may even master it. ;)

The best part about growing , much like life in general, the learning should never stop if you are doing it right :bigjoint:

Cheers :)
