SExbud is still my best plant out of the 5 seeds I germinated.

Of the 4 c99's I'm growing, one is a runt, another one weak. Both should probably be culled. However, two are healthy.

One c99 looks like it might be an indica leaning grapefruit and one a sativa leaning pineapple. I feel like I got 2 good plants out of 4 c99 seeds.

The sex bud is 1 out of 1. It's still the healthiest plant in the tent. If every seed in a pack of SB grows like this one, I think people will be very happy growers.

I found a review of sorts. "The three age 40's friends and competitive women bedders (think wilt chamberlain and scoring 3+ women per night), who bred this strain, say it is viagra for both man and women, in only two puffs. say they've given it to age 80's guys who only woody for morning pee, and after 2 puffs, they bone for hours and started over 6 times..."

I'd love to see pics of your girls. Are they budding already?

They are growing like cRaZy. I have kind of an off the wall way to grow, that really grows plants fast anyway, then put some fast growers in the run and I can almost watch them grow.

Today is day 19 from the day they were planted in the Rapid rooter. The SB has grown fan leaves about 10" tip to tip across. But the plant is only 3 1/2 " high. This photo shows the SB in a 4" pot for reference. No white hairs yet but i do keep looking. "@@"

I'm going to go waaay out on a limb here and guess. SB is a backcross of the Pineapple c99 and Grapefruit c99.

I say that because the SB seems to have the node structure of the Pineapple pheno, but with the short stature and wider leaves of the Grapefruit one. A total wild ass guess of course but there are some similarities to all 3 plants.

When I planted this, I planted them deep thinking I would have some stretch. The SB didn't stretch very much if any so that leaves me with a plant a little too deep in the container but otherwise healthy as hell.

I'll post side by sides next time I have the camera out but I have 3 slightly different looking plants.

1 short and squat indica
1 taller and lanky sativa
1 semi tall and squatty Sex bud, who's taste is described as Pineapple Grapefruit. :)

Well hard to tell anything due to the Lst but like yours I have a ton of low growth close to the ground. One thing I think is certain, it's not the indica leaning pheno.

You can see here. The Pineapple sativa looks like the SB. I would guess you have the Pineapple. The indica is shorter with stubby leaves. You can see from the pics, the c99 is taller than the SB and way taller than the indica.

SB is overall the largest plant with larger leaves by about 15%.

Fascinating stuff. What is all that Pineapple and Grapefruit business exactly? Does it simply refer to the smells of the two main possible phenotypes of C99? And does the grapefruit-smelling phenotype manifest more indica-associated appearance as well as psychoactive effects?

Like you said it's hard to judge my two plants' early days because of the LST, but as I have shown earlier they looked very much identical right before switching to 12/12, and after that they stretched to very similar heights. The heights are also the same as the third girl that's growing with them, a Reserva Privada Tangie, which is supposed to be very sativa dominant even though her leaves are the widest of the three. Here's my lusher SB/C99 compared to the Tangie, before and after switching to 12/12:

The way I understand it, one smells/tastes like Pineapple and the other Grapefruit. The sativa is more of a daytime high and the indica the more body buzz. So, yes different effects I think they claim.

It seems most people prefer the pineapple sativa over the grapefruit indica so either way, I think you and I have 2 really good plants.

I am disappointed that 2 of the 4 seeds were duds though. It doesn't say much for consistency of the gene pool and I could see why some people think FS c99 is crap.

FS may be trying to offer a more consistent c99 with the release of SB. If all the c99 plants looked like SB, I would have nothing to complain about.

I'm very surprised 50% of your C99 are so shitty. I figure it's gotta be some unusually bad luck though, otherwise I would have read more bad things about the FS C99. You say people say the C99 is crap, but I researched for a while looking for the best sativa to buy for my first ever order of seeds, and C99 is what I came up with, finding nothing but good things said about it. I ended up with 12 FS C99s, and 4 FS SBs. Oh and one G12 C99. If the SB is so superior I should have one pollinate herself to make more. Then again if it truly is as viagra-esque as they claim I don't think I'm gonna want to use it most of the time. I just wanted an uplifting, heady, inspiring, energizing sativa...

Me too and after the FS reviews I thought I had it. No worries. I only had room in my tent for 4 c99's anyway and I have 3 good ones now. It ended up being 3 out of 5 that I want to grow.

I also have 4 more in the tent that are a week or so behind these c99. Another heady, uplifting daytime smoke and another holy grail strain. Of the 4 seeds I received all 4 of these are keepers.

3 are Queen Mother and 1 Alice from Deli seeds.

I'm not too bummed out about 50% of the c99 being a bust, I have a tent full of potential :)

Hmm, on the 17th day of 12/12 I think my less-lush plant starts to smell a lot like grapefruit and is already the buddiest of the two, while the other one just smells like... well, like weed I have grown previously (only have experience with sativa-looking schwag bagseed. Lovely results though!). I wouldn't say pineapple, but hey maybe I've been eating the wrong pineapples.

The bastards still seem to get taller every day, though clearly to a much lesser degree compared to the first week of 12/12. At this point my only option is to desperately bend their tips every day, but they're definitely gonna end up very near the light, which is passable as it's fortunately and absolutely necessarily cool-tubed.

I'm getting ready to do a defoliation and might LST. They will never look the same. :)

I think I'm at 21 days from seed and 21 days of 12/12. No hairs yet on the sexbud or anything in the tent has me a little concerned. This is the first time I am growing 12/12 from seed so I have a lot to learn.

Sorry guys, it's been a fair while, but here is my SB, no idea how long it's been in flower (my bad) must be around 60 days, but it still has a while to go yet. Most of her leaves just fell off very recently and quickly, and she's had an awful upbringing :( so it could be any amount of things that's delayed her...but anyway.
One pic with flash on, one with flash off so you can see her sparkle like one of those fake-ass vampires from Twilight :mrgreen:

What kind of light did she grow under? And what's her smell like?

Ah of course, sorry, she was 12/12 from seed under a 400w hps...but she also spent some time on a windowsill :oops: in dull grey weather conditions. Unforeseen circumstances, damn though.
Smellwise...i'm not great on smells and tastes, but she seems to be more on the pineapple side. Very pleasant smell, possibly the nicest i've grown :peace:

Hah, how did she end up on the windowsill?

One of my plants smells JUST like grapefruit, so I assume the other one's got to be what they call "pineapple", even though it's really not as obviouso. I'm actually very partial to that grapefruit smell, drooling at the thought of tasting it.

Let us know how she smokes! :D

I screwed mine up. They are recovering but what I did slowed/stopped growth.

First, I can't really LST in a 4" pot. So at best all I can do is lean the plant to one side and pin it. I did that, and it did open up the bottom of the plant to light, but then I removed too many fan leaves and they froze.

I ended up with a semi-lst but it wasn't a total fail, as most of my plants now have 8-10 bud sites on a 4" plant and all those bud sites that are emerging, are relatively free from shade.

You can see from these SB photos, the growth from the bottom of the stem all the way to the top of the plant is really starting to fill in after I removed those large fan leaves. I can't really see any stem at all for all the new growth up that stem.

So, it looks like defoliating at <20% for c99 and SB is still the rule and trimming anything more than 20% at a time, stalls all the growth. Removing the bottom fan leaves re-directs the growth energy to the bud sites that are lower on the stem.

BTW, I did vape some of the leaves and it did taste like Pineapple. :)

I'm at day 21 of 12/12. The girls insist on pressing themselves against the cool-tube. I'm like, fine, go ahead, stupid bitches, get bleached and burned, I don't care at this point, goddammit. They seem to be doing well enough anyway.

Here's a new picture of SB vs C99 / C99 vs SB. It's not very scientific at this point, as I introduced some CFL side-lighting for the lusher one a while back, which is why some lower leaves are burnt on it: the super small space forces some leaves to touch the light. It's totally worth it though methinks for them sweet low buds behind those burnt leaves.

The more pathetic-looking one has way better buds right now, maybe because of the fewer tops? Also its grapefruit smell is just amazing. I've never had bud smelling like that, and it makes me salivate for real.

Is this decent for day 21? I was hoping they'd be fatter by now to be honest.
