Hey Nosias, just perused your new thread & looks like you're off to a great running start. After the Keys trip I'm down to my last 1/4oz of Green Crack so I'm really interested in seeing how yours turns out. Was yours the same breeder as the pic's that
@Screwauger posted a couple of pages back?
Mine was a feminized photoperiod from Humboldt Seeds that turned out great. The high can get a bit too trippy if I over-smoke, but in general it's been a lot like the old C-99. Energetic, uplifting, but so psychedelic that while you are enjoying the walk, sometimes you forget that what you were intending to do next was move the other foot in front of the last foot you just put down.
Morale of my story... I'm in need of a great auto version of Green Crack so hoping yours (and Screwauger's?) turns out to be what I need.
My current Dutch Passion Blue AutoMazar is about a week away from harvest. She's stayed tiny like all my strains have since I switched from HID to LED lighting. I'm guessing it will be another low yielder for me, maybe 4, 5oz if lucky. She's a beauty, and the buds are going to be hard enough to throw through a window, but just not enough of them. Here's a whole plant shot in my 2'3" X 2'3" tent:
And here's a close up of the bud, you can definitely see the Blueberry influence on this pheno:
So after watching this no-stretch phenomena I've experienced ever since I switched from HID to LED, and reading what others are doing with LED here on AFN, I've convinced myself that no-stretch has a direct correlation to having the LED lighting too close to my plant canopy. Every grow I ever did under HID stretched; none under LED have. And others here who have experienced stretch under LED seem to have started their lighting waaaay higher than I ever did with HID. So to prove my theory, my next grow will be Blimburn Seeds' Mamba Negra Auto. My last grow of this strain made rock hard 6" long fat buds, filled my 2' X 2' tent with great stretch, and made 8.5oz cured. I just dropped another seed of this strain yesterday, so soon as she's ready for the races we'll be testing my theory. Going to start at least 30" high with my MARS Pro-II Cree-128 and let her grow to the light. Maybe higher, based upon what kind of stretch you get with your latest round, because I see you're starting even higher. This may be a good time to start a different type of grow thread for me
Much kudos to you for the detailed posts, yours and others' visitors to your thread have been a great help figuring this shit out. Be seeing ya!!!
