I’ve been growing this strain for almost two years now and I want to share! I love this plant, it’s been the best thing I have grown and it always impresses me. I bought a 10 pack right from the shop in Amsterdam when I was visiting, already having done the research previously. Bringing them home, I was excited to germinate. The FIRST 8 were male, which I know was only bad luck. I did get two females with pretty different phenotypes (pic) although I chose only the sativa dominate one to continue. Ill continue this post in a bit!

Thanks Marcusjelly! I was just really starting to learn how to grow, I like to think this pictures get a bit better with time!
I re-vegged and trained one plant, keeping it in rather poor conditions as I moved to a better space. Then fashioned a makeshift SCOG and flowered under a 150hps mostly, with a few of the end weeks under a new 400. Yielded 2oz of potent smoke that is a nice balanced high that still sends my thoughts flying. After a few months of cure its really mellowing out and taking on a sharper lemony smell.
Time to enjoy some myself, hopefully tomorrow I'll give my last post on my experiences, bringing us up to the present and a plant about to be harvested. Its nice to have a rooftop to sing the praises of this wonderful plant!

looking at the pics mate you look quiet skilled at training your plants? something that is becoming more and more of an intrest on here !
I have tried to copy a grow i seen here in the uk using lst , by a guy who cant work a mobile nevermind the internet lol
These techniques are passed around underground here and alot of peolpe here have great skills , maybe on your next grow post a thread on your training methods i am sure it will draw interest ?
i have posted some pictures of mine up last nite , have a look !
hope they yield as much as your monster ball of bud lol

Thanks again Marcusjelly! The training worked out great although I just threw it together with things around (thats a papsan chair's ottaman your looking at, with some string tied in between) But thanks to this plants strength and vigor it produced a good amount of bud. Ill post more info and pics of my experiments with Super Skunk in another thread soon! Your ladies are looking fantasic by the way!!!

So, in conclusion (feels like a school paper!) I have another clone ready to harvest today. Its got amber trichromes all over and that last push of calyxes that I like to see before harvest. This plant really shows how much it can do with not much effort. I was grown in a 2 liter until about 3 weeks of flower, then put in a 1gal growbag with soil and peralite. I used a minimal amount of AD bud blood and big bud with water airated for at least an hour before use. Flowered under a 400hps for 68 days and I would say an oz is possible from this heavy girl.
My next ongoing experiment is growing two clones (same age, same rough size, etc) with one being pruned heavily in the undergrowth, and one not pruned at all. Im interested to see if the pruned will produce massive top colas good for SOG or if the unpruned will still produce massive top colas but also lots of decent sized bud underneith.
Ideas for future posts:
Smoke report; show how I trained or pruned and the results; breeding results from crossing with some other strains I have going
