Hi all I'm just coming to the end of my fourth indoor grow and still count myself as a complete novice I'm experimenting with strains for my migraines and found critical plus to do the job nicely but will keep trying new ones as I get better at growing. I have a question if anyone has grown this strain before and come across a very stretching pheno with small buds I have 3 plants all topped and given the same treatment 2 are typical indica types the other is more sativa looking one with smaller bud sites.
I'll try and put some pics up any imput would also be most welcome I'm 4 weeks into flower 10 liter airpot organic nutes grow.
sorry if I have posted wrong new to forums and that

They are looking good, I have growen it once before a year ago got 2 free seeds still got one left. Growen under 600hps in soil.
From memory it was average size with lots of smaller but solid nice buds, average trichome production and average smell. Good yields even though the buds where smalller, made up by them being solid maybe. Was looking ready after 6 weeks and pullled at 7.
Has good flavour to it kind of earthy and chocolate at the same time. A interesting taste. Not a strong intense high i find it kinda mellow but good.
Would grow again.
I dont have any pics of it growing but heres some of my year old buds, slow dried over few months.

Cheers for the reply mine are smelling like citrus I grew the widow by feminised seeds before this really like it but couldn't get the yeild high enough to make it worth while for me I just ran out before the next batch hoping this is a bit better seems alot more vigorous and buds are the size of the widowseeds was at harvest I think mine may be ready by 8 weeks of 12/12

All good man, gave me a excuse to pull them out of storage for a sess of some.
Hope it goes well with the migraines they can be a killer.

I've had them since I was a kid the doctors just put me on beta blockers and some amultriptin wich make me feel like crap and I end up off work sick. But a toke here and there stops them 90 % of the time so it's what I have to do now.
I think my grow will be finished earlier than I expected 8 weeks maybe 7 but that can't be a bad thing.
I've done loads of reading into indoor growing but nice to get some help off others not easy without the net though
thanks again much appreciated

I've grown critical+ before. great plant, huge yielder for me, tasty, smells great and did help with my migraines. I too have suffered my whole life with them. I usually get and/or have a mild heachache/tension headache 4-5 days/week with a bad migraine (laying in a dark room nautious for hours) once every 1 1/2 months or so. Drs still can't figure it out...been to several neurologists too.
good luck.

Yeah the doctors can't explain mine either bud they are killers your symptoms are very similar to mine stress/tension headaches and migraines. I've got two plants looking like they could give me my best indoor yeilds to date but the stretchy one is looking dense but very small bud and crop.

I did try Mr nice critical mass but got mold problems but it was probably a mistake made by me as I'm still learning indoor

haha ... nothing to worry about. :bigjoint: This happens very rarely, but it's ok.
Cool cheers I've done a fair bit of out door grows before I started indoor and never seen it before looks weird as hell lol thanks for the reassurance though was trying to think what I'd done lol its the only one I can see

Here an update on my plants buds are starting to swell now this is the first grow I have cut some leaves off which I know is hot topic but if I didn't it would be a mass of leaves and with no air circulating properly. I'm very pleased with the results so far except the 3rd plant with very small buds it's also stretched alot mire but hopefully will make up for it in smoke.

Critical+ by Dinafem has the exact same genetics as Mr. Nice Critical Mass.

Also Medical Seeds has a strain called Channel+ that they claim is a better version of Critical+ (same genetics). I got 1 seed as a freebie with an order that included a 5pack of Dinafem Critical+ 2.0, so I'm gonna do a side-by-side lol. It looks like the only change with the 2.0 is more mold resistance, so it should be fair...

I'd like to see how that dose. I'm always worried about mould as when I fid grows outside I often lost alot due to it trouble with uk autumn weather.

The pistols are now starting to brown on all three plants I'm taking nutes down a little bit each water the smell is something else like ripe tropical fruit and they are covered in resin glands just hoping the dreaded bud rot doesn't strike.
