Jean-O's Show Grows 2024 6 USA tester positions available for Photoperiod testing on new F1 strains Brain Damage and Devils Lettuce

[Dankerson]

Ah this sound amazing. Alas I don't grow photos yet, maybe someday. Definitely going to keep my eye out if you do any auto tester runs!

 

[Redeye Master]

UK aswell for me unfortunately. Love the work as always @Jean-O

Never run photos but have a spare tent and light and would love to have a chance to run some of your gear. Bit of a wild card but I have two remaining plants in my plant count for the fall seeds would be planted the day they are received

I'm strictly outdoor but happy to grow your stuff as a tester or customer either one. I dunk 'em in early March and get them out asap. I watch them closely for trouble and they get what they need but I do as little as possible and don't trip out right away when there's a spot on a leaf.

If not this time then maybe some other. They sound real good, so far I'm still partial to photo I struggle a bit with autos.

@Cultivators I am looking for 6 testers for 2 new Photoperiod strains. Brain Damage F1 and Devils Lettuce F1

Brain Damage F1 is the new resulting cross of Shining Sun Seed Co. Durban Thai High Flyer crossed with Guyana land Race which was at a F3 when I procured the strain which was then Crossed to my Spice Cake F3. The Shining Seed Land race cross was gifted to me on an IG trade which were non feminized seeds which I then sifted through phenotypes and found a special Garlic and Steak terpene on a female plant which was then crossed to some feminized pollen from my Spice Cake to make this new feminized F1 cross. Both of the strains in this cross have typically run between 9 to 10 weeks in flower and produce an intensely sativa dominant high. Durban Thai Highflyer is a rare sativa dominant hybrid strain (80% sativa/20% indica) created through crossing the infamous Thailand X Durban strains. Although it may be hard to find on your average market, Durban Thai Highflyer is a favorite of sativa lovers everywhere for the intense mental clarity that it provides and its super delicious flavor. The Durban Thai Highflyer high is very cerebral in nature, with heady effects that begin almost as soon as your first exhale. You'll feel a lifted onset that fills you with a sense of creative energy and motivation, allowing you to focus on any task that you may have at hand. This is accompanied by a clear-headed feeling that allows you freedom from any negative or racing thoughts. With these long-lasting effects and its high 15-23% average THC level, Durban Thai Highflyer is said to be perfect for treating chronic fatigue, depression, chronic stress, nausea, and headaches or migraines. This bud has a super sweet fruity berry flavor with a lightly minty exhale. The aroma is of earthy herbs and spicy fruits with a hint of mint that intensifies the more that you toke. Durban Thai Highflyer buds have piecey bright neon green nugs with dark leaves, bright orange hairs and a sticky coating of chunky clear crystal trichomes. Spice Cake F3 is the result from years of work and from crossing Dinafem Blue Cheese auto x Cinderella 99 from Growers Choice photoperiod x Dinafem Blue Widow photoperiod. The end result in the cross is a sweet and black pepper spicy terpene that has a very racy high which can lead into paranoia and anxiety in higher doses. Flowering usually onsets fairly slow but finishes strong with rock hard golf ball nuggs covered in trichomes littering the plant at the end of flower.

Devils Lettuce F1 is the resulting cross of Ethos Grandpa's Stash R2 x Sweet Seeds Green Poison Fv. Ethos celebrates some genetics that paved the way for modern-day growing with this mix of legendary old school strains: 1994 Super Skunk, 1992 OG Kush, and a 1970s cut of Afghan Kush. Grandpa’s Stash has big beautiful buds that range in hues from light green to purple with a low amount of fan leaves. This stinky strain is heavy with a sweet skunky aroma that blends well with rich flavors of incense and pine. Great for a sunny afternoon adventure, Grandpa’s Stash’ balanced high will putting your head in the clouds and your body at ease
Feminized and photoperiod-dependent version of our Green Poison® (SWS14) now featuring ultra-fast flowering. This is an F1 hybrid resulting from the cross between the elite clone of our appreciated Green Poison® and a selected 3rd Generation autoflowering genetic line of Green Poison Auto® (SWS30). This strain is ready to harvest with thick buds all covered with abundant aromatic resin only 6 weeks after the flowering photoperiod begins.

The plants have the appearance of indica-sativa hybrids, with an exceptionally vigorous growth, very fast flowering and large production of flowers. Exquisite taste and aroma with a sweet intense hint of fruit. This strain is remarkably resistant to mold in outdoor grows, considering that due to its fast flowering the plant succeeds in anticipating its harvest to the period in which botrytis usually attacks.

During my pheno hunt I sifted out 2 very special phenotypes with both strains. The Grandpa's Stash that I used in the cross was a short and heavily stacked plant which grew with an Indica predominance in plant and flower structure but offered a very speedy and energetic high that lasted for hours and it has a wonderful piney and musky/skunky terpene and it took roughly 70 days in flower to fully ripen. The Green Poison which was used in the cross reminded me a lot of an old strain I use to enjoy years ago called Sweet Cheese. It has a wonderful sweet and cheesy terpene, the plant grew with a sativa dominant plant and flower structure and also took around 63 days in flower to reach maturity for harvest.

In this test thread I am looking for growers who have experience and availability to run photoperiod dependent plants through roughly 10 weeks in flower. I am hoping to gather information on terpenes and effects as well as phenotype variations. Growers will need to be able to start the veg cycle by the end of October and be able to veg for roughly 45 days before starting the flowering schedule. I am hoping to get weekly to bi-weekly update on the progress of the grow. A variety of growing styles is always welcome!

I am hoping to get 3 tester for each strain that can run at least 2 plants for the test to compare. If you have any interest please feel free to drop a comment and I will choose the 6 positions and get the beans out in the post. Thanks for stopping in and thanks for all of the help here at AFN!

I'd love to join in but I'm having to scale things down for the next six months or so because of a late-breaking life change. I'll be watching the thread though, with great anticipation!

I wish I was setup to run photos indoors. When you need an auto tester I’d be more than happy to run them

UK aswell for me unfortunately. Love the work as always @Jean-O

Sorry to limit this to USA, tons of excellent growers around the world! I will have to do a test run for everybody again here soon. The last time I did testing over sea I had a bit of trouble getting the beans through customs and had to jump through a lot of hoops and resend a few packages that were detained. Ive been super busy with putting an addition on my house and working on the property I didn't want to risk not having enough time to get packages through all the hoops I had to jump through the last time. Hopefully once things settle down a bit around the homestead I will run another world wide testing and offer beans to everyone!

Send me a PM with your shipping info and let me know which strain you would like to fill the remaining 2 spots with and I will get a care package sent out this week some time! Thanks for helping out.

 

[ItzSticky]

Awh missed this chance! tent is now full. Maybe next time I can grow some good ole Jean-O beans

 

[Jpkindbud]

Devils lettuce sounds amazing! Bad news is I’m pretty sure I’m at the quota limit for testing atm… I do have room in my photo tent though…

 

[Bill.de.Cat]

Was going to run a full tent of my GT's but if you don't mind me running them in my Osmocote experiment I could run them....have 6 auto pots to use that will be open in about 2 weeks.
edit: be advised, I don't seem to have the best luck at germination yet.
