thats what im trying to say mine is definatly different from what its supposed 2 be i have a rocklock as well & a lemon skunk too mine is displaying sativa traits theyre 5' tall after topping & look at the comparison in leaves ,left is rocklock, right is pineapple chunk. all 5 of my p/c are identical the p/c took almost a month after 12/12 to even show a hint of a bud even slower than my lemon skunk which is sativa dominant lets get one thing strait im gonna do ok with this strain but the 55 day thing aint gonna happen i was trying to replace b.c. seedking ''mango'' which is a fast indica dominant strain & 2 grows in a row i finished in 70 days & yield was decent too i think barneys jumped the gun here & didnt fully stabilize the strain or someone mispackaged my seeds these plants grow like monsters i have a thread titled ''started pineapple chunk today'' it tells the whole story my pheno of p/c looks nothing like indica to me & im by no means even close to being an expert here but this is definatly not as ''advertised''

Pineapple chunk is very tall. i put it on to flower as soon as the stem hardened. and 30 days in its nearly seven foot on hydro and ive topped it and bended it a lot. I'm growing in a tent i had to take the lid off the tent and put the lights on the ceiling. and they don't like the nutes going over eighteen. they look like they need longer as well. but one thing ive never seen such a even canopy i only bought them because barneys said they was 80cm. i will try and post pics soon. best skunk ive grown red dragon on hydro about 480 gram dry off 2 very strong fruity skunk strongest ive ever smoked laughing weed.

Yeah horribleherk i took a chance as well. if i knew they would grow like this i wouldnt of bought them. i like short to medium plants that are easy to manage and yield big.i wont be growing pineapple chunk again. the first time barneys let me down but it might yeild good in the end. it looks like it gonna need minimum 9 weeks maybe longer . i should of tried greenhouse white widow i grew it before from G13 labs it was real strong ko cbd level but needs minimum 9 weeks. over 12 oz on a plant the widow smoking that was like getting in the ring with lennox lewis.

i'm a little concerned now because my pineapple chunk freebie just broke soil. barney's says this strain " flowers into a beautiful conclusion in just 55 days" and lists the type as simply indica. i guess we can safely assume the 25% thc is bullshit as well. yessss.

wow, I am really bummed out so far. I just bought these seeds a couple weeks ago cuz i wanted a strain for outside next year that was mould resistant, strong, and tasted good. now I hear all this negative feedback on a strain that I was so excited to try out. I am wondering if I should buy some Soma Seeds Reclining Buddha now. I was going to hold off but Pineapple Chunk is starting to sound more like a let down with every post i read

yea sorry man, it sounded so good but mine recently died!!! it was the only plant out of 20 to get a wierd disease.. it was growing badass until one day it just totally stopped and all the rowing tips turned a pale green and the older leaves were still healthy. then it just stopped. eventually we tried trimmin it up and more turned pale. freakin bummer! i wanted some pineapple!

i havent updated on my pineapple chunk as of late there just hasnt much happening with it its recovering but progress is slow & even the best of my buds arent dense i would recomend this for outdoor grows & then there is the question of the claimed thc content???? im thinking barney was making an attemt to cash in on the pineapple market that g-13 labs pineapple express seems to dominate & for good reason if you look at some of pineapple express grow journals youll see why. pineapple chunk isnt even close to pineapple express

This is my pineapple chunk at 5 weeks in flower. I had a few cal/mag issue's in the begining but all is well now, other that the fact that they are 6 feet tall.

I agree horribleherk 100 percent i would never grow pineapple chunk again. its misleading the information on it saying its fast and short thats BS. dinafem blue hash should be a lovely smoke. i grew G13 labs blue venom twice first 1 was hairy like sativa. second 1 has really good calyx formation tight. and it stayed short both of them and yielded good very nice smoke not the strongest but nice. i had 2 dinafem hash plants before 1 stayed short the other one was a true giant not so much in height about 5 foot 6 inches. but in bud size its hard to tell whats on a plant but i estimated about 20 oz but it might of been a bit less or a bit more. but my pal who was doing it got robbed at gun point by black lads followed him home from the grow shop and then come back in 8 weeks stay alert people these armed robbers are true scum ruthless and there are loads of them up and down the country they think its easy money. because you cant report it to the police as well. i told him to use the web.

Hey all ive been reading all your coments on the pineapple chunk and even though i have yet to grow it i have smoked it and the smoke is outstanding,trully outstanding and the smell when ripe and cured is rediculous fruity stinky cheese smell with great bag apeal as well..But ! as you all say it can be a headache,my folks has had two harvest of it complete and the discription is definately not acurate for one the plant does have sativa growing traits they stretch like hell no matter where your lights are the leaves are not as fat as indica leaves and when you flip 12/12 it takes a while to show pre-flower..Now one thing my folks say is he counts his flowering from the first sign of pistals and his finish anywhere from 10 to 11 weeks thereafter..Now outside of these issues i must say that the thc story and the smoke reports are dead on it is one of the best ive ever had all around..funky sweet smell great bag apeal good yeilder and serious couch lock..So is it worth it hell yes~!!~ if you have the time height lights and patience to see it through.. So if you have already began keep going you'll be very happy..I hope this helps out on you alls quest for the best...Peace

hey stinkbud1 you hit the nail on the head i wasnt impressed at first & had problems [mainly my fault] but youre right this could be rewarding once you get the monsters under control as the growth rate is unreal i count flower time from the day i spotted first bud hairs[21 days after turning light 12/12] you answered my main question & thats how does it smoke i think this strain developes all the good stuff late in the game im glad i didnt yank it this is definatly a strain for mixed grows as it overpowers anything you put in with it
