Seed Pictures

(Chunk x CH) x (Chunk x CH)

Great variation in the phenotypes. Half are one type with 1/4, 1/8, 1/16 of the remaining crosses showing mixtures of the dominant and recessive genes. It would be interesting to see them in piles sorted by appearance to see what the ratios are.

What are the lineages of Chunk and CH?

Hey... that sounds quite informed, elaborate if you don't mind. Although on 60 it won't mean much, I'd be happy to sort and pile them fyi.

I usually refer to the Chunk as "a chunk" because I'm not certain of the lineage. It's supposed to be a cheese x skunk but has a sweet piney smell that I didn't expect. The person I got them from only provides grow space and is clueless beyond that. The CH is an 8 week pheno of Cannalope Haze from DNA Genetics, which according to some is a C99-knockoff. I just harvested the plant the above seeds came from: https://www.rollitup.org/t/sativieds-picture-journal.831229/page-5#post-10736568 after 8 weeks and 2 days 12/12 (fully mature with preflowers when switched to 12/12).

Sure - The appearance of the seeds can reflect strain characteristics. Hazes and pure sativas can have plain unpatterned beige, brown, gray...seeds with no patterning. Hybrids tend to have more patterned seeds. Some kush strains can even have pure black seeds. The ratios of the different appearances can reflect the gene mixtures present in the parents.

This is how they discovered gene expression ratios. By comparing sweet pea plant appearances in flowers. Seeds are an extension of the flower.

I think the Skunk line came from an offspring of some Humboldt piney strain, which makes sense that you could get some pine traits from a skunk line.

It would be so nice to have a true genetic record of all of the strains. That is why I like working with old landrace strains from Africa, South America, Russia, Southeast Asia, and the Himalayas.

This seed thread has shown the diversity of seed phenos out there! Thanks everybody for posting these breathtaking pictures of your seeds!

Cheers,

Thanks for the info. I will keep on eye on the least-patterned ones and see if they are more sativa-dom.

And thanks for pointing out Humboldt in California. Not a name I ever even heard here in NL, but in any case highly unlikely that is where the grower got those seeds from. Looks quite different too. I also tried BF's Pineapple Chunk in their shop but that's also more pineapple. Mine was more pine-pineapple if you know what I mean. It's darker. Crossed with Cannalope Haze it's more like a tropical mix drink (I suck at describing taste...).

Thanks Dr.!!
I've been getting antsy and can't find anyone to test these bad boys out for me so I decided to pop some myself, very pleased with the results so far. All three sets of twins have broke ground and are reaching for the light.

Is the Casey x OG a cross of the Casey Jones your grew in the waterfarm? That thing was monstrous.

@MegaBud Thanks! that's a very good question.I have been trying to get the answer . Those seeds did come from the same person, so there is a chance..I cant believe you remember my Casey! that's so cool. She was pretty spectacular. I did grow her under two 600 watts so that might have played a huge factor in the monstrous size. Im really hoping to get a fermale OGCASEy cuz will waterfarm scrog her the same way in hopes of the same success!
GOod luck MegaBud with your garden, the twins look fantastic!!
do you have a journal I can follow?

Your Casey was the reason I pulled my Waterfarm out of retirement! Only for me to bomb with it again haha. I even used the Scottyballs method, still failed. Hydro doesn't seem to be my thing.


Thanks so much for the support!! I really look up to some of the members on here as growers, and try like hell to achieve the same results.

I was devastated when I walked into my room this morning and found them like this:


Apparently, some dirty SOB of a mouse decided he wanted himself a snack of my precious seedlings and a random root riot plug I left sitting on my clone table.
Only 1 survivor and it wasn't one of the twins

One of these days I will pony up and do a journal if enough interest is showed.

Total bummer about the mouse attack!
I'd be about gutted, too.
But you have a good one left, and hopefully the mouse will have mercy.
You can take another cup with some breather holes poked into it, and tape it to the top of the cup with the remaining sprout to help protect it from the mouse.

Or lay a mousetrap barricade around the cups....bummer bout that I was looking forward to watching the twins

Ohh what a bummer, im so sorry for your loss @MegaBud ...that rotten stinkin dirty fuckin mouse! if I could only get my hands on him or her.. that bIOtch, at least it left one. THANK GOD!
The one left looks great!

tHE MOUse sticky paper worked great for us.. they cant run over it like a trap. If you ever need help with your waterfarm It would be a pleasure to help you as much as I can. It really is EZ, u just have to be willing to put in the time which isn't much.. just available EVERYDAY, no excuses, for 15 minutes or so to feed her cuz the rez drys up super fast when shes in Beast mode.

I can just imaging you in your bed right now with a flashlight some kind of weapon to get that lil mouse.lol.. stay high and Have FUN!

Those DEA mice suck!

Cheers

So THAT's why the governemnt bought up 1.5 billion rounds of ammo: they had to have enough to arm their secret Mouse Anti-cannabis Brigade!
Those shifty bastages....

what are these precious gems you posted? any name for them?

Why yes. The first one is PeakseedsBC Northernberry. Second is PeakseedsBC Skunkberry. The 3rd and 4th are Headstash Seeds Burmese. Cheers!

I have a pack of the blueberry and northern skunk. only grew a couple of beans each. i wasn't real thrilled about either, but i was also just starting out, so i would do a better job with them now.

i also used a northern skunk male to pollinate a few different strains. i wasn't thrilled with the offspring but you can't judge a strain by just a couple of beans, so i will have to pop some more someday.

This is my first time growing any PSBC. I did order a crap ton of beans as he gave a crazy deal but these are the first I have cracked. I got at least 2 packs of 6 of his strains each. I have read many good things so I have my hopes up. You have me abit worried now though now haha. I just couldn't pass up on the value and convenience.

I guess as long as it's produces nice resin I'll be happy because majority of it will be turned into ice water extract as I don't smoke flowers. Will be curing some for the wife though as she still love her bong hits.

Sorry to be off topic but curious about your method (medium and lighting mostly) and how close harvest date was to advertised. I'm curious about what to expect.

Any particular characteristics to look for on the pineapple chunk I have some of thier fem seeds on thd actual seeds I mean

I'm not sure I understand your question so two answers. I haven't grown pineapple chunk but vaped it at Barney's Coffeeshop in Amsterdam. The Chunk seeds I had were larger than usual and dark with no or little pattern, what do yours look like?

soil less growing mix like promix and sunshine mix. 400 watt hps and flowered for 9 weeks.

not to worry though, they came out pretty good, but i like more of the cheese and kush varieties. sorry i wasn't more specific on why i wasn't thrilled.
