    Default anyone had hermie problems with BB?

    Blueberry has been the one strain i always wanted to grow...but avoided due to my hatred for hermie-prone strains.

    im just wondering what kind (if any) of hermie problems some of u guys have had with peaks BB...

    Probably not the best strain to grow and not expect to see mutations. BB is known to mutate with whirled leaves, polyploid, and can have hermies. Now this doesnt speak for all BB phenotypes, cuz theres some bad-ass BB nug out there. You'll just have to weigh your need for the Blueberry to the risk of possible problems.
    I do know this... Peak Seeds now offers 15 BB beans for the price of ten. Due to variation in pheno type and mutations.
    Good luck to ya. I'll be poppin 5 BB beans from Peak Seeds here real soon myself.

    These guys have solid BlueBerry: 15 reg seeds for 53.00 inc shipping.
    They also have several blueberry crosses that appear promising, and sell a blueberry package called the HGS ThunderPack.

    I sent them a question via email about their vintage collectors pack and I had a reply within 48 hours.

    If you decide to bite the bullet be sure to throw up some grow shots for us

    i would go with a bb x maybe skywalker or blue cheese as they seam more stable and have a bigger end yeild as straight bb can be a very low yeilding strain...

    hope ya find what your looking for

    My buddy used to run a BB x NL that had two distinct phenos. Not sure from which breeder but he picked them up during the BC Bud Lovers Cup about 8 years or maybe longer.

    One pheno was very frosty but leaned more toward the NL side but I thought it was stronger than his other pheno which had awesome blueberry taste just a short duration high. But he never had any problems with hermies or bananas on finishing.

    I still have some BB seeds bought a long time back and been scared to run them but they were fine for me until lost due to circumstances then.Even still have some BB x WW beans too I may give to a buddy.
