The Weed Nerd~

I think I might have been confusing, the point was, IMO Pennywise NEEDS TO BE TALL or it wont yield much. The individual buds aren't big but there are TONS of bud sites. All 3 of my phenos were short and didn't stretch more than a few inches. Personally I'd run this girl topped once or twice and pinched, vegged to a 4ft bush then flip. I saw that Ocannabis got a more sativa leaning pheno than any of the girls I got, so that's another place to look for the other side of things.

TBH, I rarely see anything done in 8 weeks. There are a few cuts out there that will do that, but for the most part you will be in the 9-9.5 week range for most strains to be truly finished.

I understood what you meant! I was thinking of mainlining on my next grow. Do you think that's a good technique to use with Pennywise, or would she not take well to it?

I wouldn't, that will slow it WAY down. I tried it w/ my lemon bub peheno side by side w/ another one I topped normally. The ML one has a really thick base but it is easily 1/2 the height and overall growth of the other one I am growing w/ my standard topping method.

Oh, how I love this forum! I'd +rep you again, but the interface won't let me. Ok, two plants, topped normally, and by that I mean Uncle Ben's top for four main colas...sound like the right plan?

DOCTOR WHO


What do you get when you cross Mad Scientist with Timewreck? Doctor Who, of course. This slightly Indica strain has a high THC content along with a strong, built-in resistence to powdery mildew. Recommended for use throughout the day, DOCTOR WHO leaves you with a clear head and ready to take on whatever the universe has to throw at you.


Phenotypes: There are 4 main phenotypes. All have virtually the same smell and taste and all buds tend to show some purple. The main difference between phenotypes is in the bud structure and the dominant color; buds are either fingery or round, with pale green or purple as their chief color. The purple buds are particularly impressive.


Height: Short to Medium


Yield: Medium


Recommended for Indoor & Outdoor Conditions: This strain is super powdery mildew resistant.


Best way to grow: Top early to make an approximately 30” round bush.


Harvest: 56-63 days


Sativa/Indica: 40/60


Hybrid: Mad Scientist X Timewreck


High Type: Clear head with a nice Indica bottom that allows relaxation with pain relief while the substantial THC level gets your brain moving and engaged. Good for any time of day.


Taste/Aroma: Very tasty, almost like a fruit that's sweet and sour at the same time, like a grape or an over-ripe pineapple.


-------------------------------
{May be helpful for: Appetite stimulant, MS symptoms, ADHD, nausea, depression, anxiety}

MICKEY KUSH


Mickey Kush packs a strong punch and has been known to come up with a knockout on the first hit. This mostly Sativa strain set a record for THC content at our testing lab, and it also has a high percentage of the cannabinoid CBG, which may play an important role in fighting tumors. This top THC producing strain has a short budding cycle of just 7 to 8 weeks. A little goes a long way, and with proper pacing, Mickey Kush is a great strain to get you started and through the day.


Phenotypes: The 3 main phenotypes are Sweet Irish Kush dominant, the Jack the Ripper dominant, and one that shared characteristics of BOTH parents


Height: Medium tall


Yield: Medium to Heavy


Recommended for Indoor & Outdoor Growing


Best way to grow: Top out into a round bush early. The Sativa nature will really come through as the plant stretches out quite a bit.


Harvest: 49-56 days


Sativa/Indica: 75/25


Hybrid: Sweet Irish Kush X Jack the Ripper


High Type: One hit of Mickey Kush is more than enough for a novice smoker, and even seasoned smokers may find their thoughts racing a bit too much after more than a few hits. At the right dosage, this provides a clear head and the energy to get things done, with strong pain relief.


Taste/Aroma: Sour earthy kush with undertones of lemon

Really enjoy the descriptions. It helps to have an honest, accurate description when choosing potential medicine for future grows, thank you much! out

I agree -- the TGA descriptions and the time they take to test and rate the different strains in terms of effects and benefits was the SINGLE thing that brought me to TGA in the first place. It's professional, compassionate and instructive. I'm not just a stoner. I need the pot I smoke to do certain things for me, and it was like a beacon shining in the dark to find the TGA Genetics site and see the information I needed to know.

Love it man, sounds like the strain I have been waiting on.

When it is cured, I will, Ex-ter-min-ate!

I'm going to try to not stare and Sub with my mouth open this year and say hello.



2 years ago I walked right past him and MzJill while they were talking to Jorge Cervantes and all I could do was stand there, rub my eyes and keep walking. Being as high as I was my mind did not process the awesomeness that was in front of me. Been kicking myself ever since. LOL

Thanks Sub that is the info I have been waiting for! Guess I'm topping these Dr who! Eagerly awaiting the Blue mountain kush description!

The question is when can those of us who can't attend events actually get our hands on Dr Who or Mickey Kush Or Pennywise for that matter. I'm getting ready to put in my next seed order wish I knew if it were worth holding off a few weeks

A few weeks wont cut it sorry.
We don't even have pack art work yet.
The new strains wont go retail until I approve each one DANK myself PERIOD!
Thats how we have always done things and I will continue to do so.
I am happy all the growers and the breeders are so excited but unless I pass each strain it won't make it to the menu.
Dr Who and Micky Kush are the only ones I have given the green light to at this point.

Sub

I will wait patiently for new strains Will the new book you were talking about in an earlier Nerd be done this year? I am a happy owner of Dank 2.0 and I am eager to have a new installment from Subcool. Peace.

Pics before transplant for you all! Blue Mountain Kush 1-5 up front and Dr.Who 1-5 in the back row!

Cannabis genetics are like rock and roll. Europeans took what little we had and further improved and refined it. The Haze's and so forth. Then we got them back in America and by that time a lot of us knew what was going on and with the help of the internet was able to share and improve them further. I doubt you'd find better genetics anywhere right now.

That's totally cool, Sub! We trust you. If Pennywise isn't ready by Aug 1, then I'll grow Space Dawg and just stock up on Pennyseeds later. All good, brother!

I'm just at day 24 of flowering 3 different Plushberry phenos, but I'm already excited to order a new batch of seeds and it already looks like they'll all be from TGA! I just wish I had more room so I could run more of your strains at once, so far these Plushberry's look intense and I'm loving the slight variations in the smells between them; the resin from the trim is going to be sick!

Any recommendations for strains (TGA's obviously) that have very different terpene profiles but with extreme resin production for making wax? I want 4 strains that are all very different from each other, variety is the spice of life after all. So far I like the look of Jack Skellington, Timewreck and Qush but that's just going on a paragraph description and some great photos. Which strains are on other growers hit lists?

Here you go. This video is for all the weed nerds out there

Sub- Have you ever tried an Embur or a Phedor? Also have you seen the lab results for a cashed bowl of weed? Contains 6% residual butane from bic lighter. Hash holds twice as much butane. Ever catch yourself blowing out the flame on top of your pressed hash half way through the hit? Yeah thats all butane there. I've been rocking a (WAY OVERPRICED) embur for awhile. But its the shit. You will retire that zippo torch once you get one.
