Hey Subcool I gotta say that Querkle is the most beautiful strain I have had the pleasure of trimming... I found a fan leaf on one of the plants that had a bud growing in the middle of it! have you seen this in any of your strains before?? Check out these pics!
I have found this trait on 3 leafs on my durban poison. crazy.

Hey Subcool! I was curious what you thought about the SR71 Purple Kush cut and if you had any idea where it came from? Also would you say it's one of the renamed cuts that was Urkle?? Cuz it is so slow in veg smells like grapes turns purple in week 5 pretty much everything you say about Urkle in Grapes of Wrath...

Heres some pics of a cured nugget and a plant just before trimming.. Anyone with experience growing both strains would be greatly appreciated cuz I want to use the PK I have in my breeding projects..






what do you guys think?? Could this be Urkle renamed as a Purple Kush????:o

IMO the calyx to leaf ratio is to good for Urkle.
Urkle is a very leafy plant without many extruded soft pistils.

Bongorilla Goes Ape for Qleaner


Purple Jacks Cleaner?

Last year I created a new strain called Querkle combining Purple Urkle and Space Queen that has really taken the purple growing world by storm. During the creation of this new strain we had an active Querkle male that exhibited amazing purple stamens. The plant was so deeply colored that even the pollen has a pinkish tint. Even the small trichomes on the male plant were tinted a pink color. When we select a new male we automatically use his pollen on our two most proven females. Because we have worked with these mother plants for so many years tracking the off spring can tell us what traits the male passes on. We use two completely different type plants as each combination of genetics can make something very different with each set of parents. The two females we choose to test with other than Urkle were Jacks Cleaner and Apollo-13. We have learned the best way to test a strain is to let several growers start the seeds and have them report what they see to me.
This allows the new strain to be tested under multiple conditions and skill levels and really puts a new creation to the ultimate test. One of the growers that took on the challenge of growing out Jacks Cleaner X Querkle ( Qleaner) was Bongorilla.​
Bongorilla is a well-known and respected grower with the skill of growing really large plants indoors. Bongorilla germinated the plants and grew them out in fox farm and happy frog soil and then transplanted later into 5 gal grow bags with Ocean forest soil.
He will be supplementing with, bat guano (budswell), maybe some worm castings, but later in the flowering cycle he will be adding conniseur as he is a big fan of that formula. It seems to work very well with organics and it rocks in soil too. Big Bud as well as overdrive will also be used so it will be organic with steroids.
He used natural sunlight as much as possible, and put all the little plants in a garden window and they loved it. To keep them from budding the sunlight was mixed with T-5 fluorescents or compact flouros.
Bong noted that the strain is a very heavy feeder requiring additional nutrients to prevent early fading. They are eating Iguana Juice Grow @ 2.0 ec (1000 ppm) with humics and fulvic acid + cannazym. At 4 weeks of age and needed to be transplanted into larger containers much earlier than other strains. Just before transplanting all the qleaners soil was top-dressed with worm castings and iguana juice at full label strength. They were moved to a warmer environment to help with nitrogen uptake. Its a job keeping these girls fed. They like to eat so much.​
At 45 days the plants started to show sex and seven confirmed females from 9 seeds started and they were transplanted into larger containers.​
Plant A is the most vigorous in the pack and was topped due to height. she has a thin blade sativa like leaf structure that looks a little like spacequeen. While there are slight differences all of the plants have fairly tight internodal spacing and sit fairly squat.​
By day 34 of budding there is no room for more trichomes! The plants are completely encrusted with THC jewelry and the plants are starting to take on some amazing smells. Bong was smelling hints of Grape and Cherry and amazingly to his surprise one female smelled like Banana. The most vigourous (pheno A) had to be culled due to naners which is very unfortunate because she smelled exactly like bananas with a skunky undertone.​
Phenotype B started fading to a nice purple color as early as week 4. But the stand out at this point was female C. This plants bud structure is very unique and reminds me of a Kush..it looks to be a fair yielder but not the best of the 3..but this 1 is almost as purple as a granddaddy thats growing next to it. This female has the grapey qualities I am looking for and I bet this 1 will be pure purple in the end. This variation will definitely be run again for further testing. There is large variation in this hybrid but it looks like the stand out females, really stand out a lot.​
The females are about 50+% purple and may have turned an even deeper purple if it were to go a little longer and the buds weren’t so covered with resin. At day 56 it smelled awesome and the frost really jumps out and the trichomes are cloudy, few clear, and few amber. The smell is about as good as grape gets that is why Bongorilla will probably stick with organics on this and others.​
One of the females buds actually ended up with a Banana smell and taste and I don’t think I have to explain how happy the Ape man is over this turn of events. I have never heard of a strain smelling like grapes and bananas but leave it to Bongorilla to turn one up.​
Minitrkn420 was another of our test growers for this new strain. He started 9 seeds and from these got 8 female plants. These are not feminized seeds we just seem to have a knack for females from our seeds. Mini also uses a variation of my concentrated soil and loves it! He has become a huge fan of organic buds. He also got great results but his plants were only half way through at the time I wrote this article.​
Bongorilla named his favorite plant Ice Grape Crush for the taste and the looks of the completely encrusted buds with a purple tint.​
Qleaner will be in testing another 6 months so we can determine its stability and track how well everyone likes it.​
The only place to find Qleaner now is at the Breedbay auctions all of our new creations are proven by the growing community before entering mainstream.​
So if your looking for something extremely potent with the chance of Purple give this one a try while its still easy to grab.​
