Female Seeds C99?

Anyone here ever use cfls to finish a c99 ? And, if so, were you able to get amber trichs ?

Understatement. Wow.

Thank guys, i can wait. The hairs are still mostly white but this thing is definitely flowering faster than anything else i have. I also have a FS lemon kush that I'll probably put in the flowering tent when the 99 is done. It looks like female makes some good seeds.

She does, its like a tiger exhibit over here

im hoping they do ever reveiw i have read here on RIU about FmS has been great so i took a leap of faith and got 2 early sativas,2 bubbler gummer,2 pure Ak,and 2 purple marocs..all these will be outdoors so u guys will find out next year how they alll turned out

Sweet pineapple....quick trim...53 days finish..

i had some mite damage on one of the buds and trimmed a branch early so it wouldn't spread. Smells soooo good. really wish i wasn't trying to clean up and pass a drug test. It's OK, i get to try it well cured with zero tolerance. I just ordered some more FS. Bubblegumer, big bud widow and AK. When i made my first seed order i was looking for an AK but they were all auto. Glad to finally find one that wasn't auto.

looking really good and frosty.

My c99 went 70 days....I harvested the top then a few days later I harvested the bottom....

Just in time, too. I'm down to just a couple nugs left from the last one. Can't stay out of the jar, especially in the AM.

Dang @ 70 days. How does she smell? The last one looks a little purple ?

yeah amos and cowboy they look so delicious. I guess I am going to have to get a couple going sooner rather than later. good morning smoke you say....

Glad I've got a few of these growing, they double height during flower?

70 days....I just took a whiff for ya but it wasn't smelling like much to me right now...could be because I am hanging out in the room that it is drying in too...I know when I was trimming the smell was fairly strong, and stuck to my hands....The taste is totally pineapple/grapefruit....And, ya, there is definite purple on them...Maybe cause either I let them go so long ? Or maybe cause my lights off temps dipped into the 60s ? The purple really didn't show up until the very end.

I'd say mine more than doubled...maybe about 1.5x the height it started from the time I switched it to flower ?

I put in bamboo stakes and tied the tops over...Kind of ran them in a circular pattern at the top....Seemed to work well...

Funny thing happened during flower...They were constantly growing really fast, and growing into the lights and burning themselves...Well this happened to one of the main colas early on, and totally liked burned half of the flower.....So a few days later I cut the burnt part off with some scissors...It ended up growing back with 4 heads on that cola !

here ya go...I just found some pics of that 4 headed cola, lol....

I think spacecowboy is right about 2X stretch from bean; I can't clearly recall. But clones go wide as much as tall. Supercropping early toward the outside gets the main colas on the perimeter, and allows major space filling in the center. You have to keep a fan on them to strengthen the branches, otherwise it'll eventually fall all over itself.

It's pretty clear we have different phenos. This one reeks of sweet pineapple as early as 3 1/2 weeks in. Remember the bad guy in the movie Pineapple Express? He picks up a tossed lit joing, inhales...exhales...and immediately says "Pineapple Express". This could be that. Not a hint of grapefruit. Carrying a rolled joing in the car is like having a fruity air freshener...lol.

This is quick dried and trimmed. Couldn't resist an early sample.

Female Seeds uses the original Bros. Grimm genetics. They will tell you this if you inquire. I have only dealt with them once, but I can tell you, and others will say the same, Female Seeds are an excellent company. Don't let the low prices fool you, they have great genetics and don't bullshit their customers.
I know I sound like an advertisement for them, but I am speaking from experience. I tried their Grapefruit and read about other's experience with them.

I hear Mosca has the real deal C99. I can't compare the two though, because I never tried Mosca.

I have grown out Mosca C99 BX1 -- Who is to say if it is "authentic" without a full DNA test, but I have to say I'm VERY satisfied with the results from this strain -- as a bonus i got a really nice male and made a few C99 crosses as well. IMHO, strains like C99 and The White are a wonderful foundation for a breeding program.

I'm done with the Kerala that I was smokin'....That Kerala has been curing like 2 months...The c99 in only a 3 day cure blows it away, lol.....

Oh, and pretty much I am getting straight pineapple for taste now...I think I had one hit or bowlful that tasted like grapefruit...Now all pineapple...Also, after only 3 days the pineapple taste has gotten stronger and lasts longer on the palette as well...
