Those are beautiful, nice work! So you will wet trim them n stick the buds in the Cannatrol?
Yep, I'm a wet and right now trimmer. Nothing worse than trimming a wet floppy noodle. I mainly do that because I usually need every square inch of my Cannatrol.
And for anyone who wants to crap on the Cannatrol, I have zero regrets and it has allowed me for the first time to hit my dry/cure perfectly every single time. I've lost entire harvests from mold or from drying to fast and it's just trash after that.

Look at this little bugger, grew right up through the eyelet. Also everything is frosted right down to the very bottom. Even the "larf" is covered to the gills.
I wish I woulda got a better pic of the scissors, but it looks like blueberry jelly on the blades!!!

Well it's cut time. I had to wait a few days till my Cannatrol became available.
Three Blueberry Cupcake clones. 73 days !! They are a PIA to run, but boy do they produce alot from nothing but spindly stems.
Felling a lot better about my BBC order after seeing this. Wow! Can't wait to try them out.

Also got 3 freebees with my order - The Bling (Humboldt Frost x Humboldt OG x Gelato Humboldt)

Just keep in mind none of us are joking about that stretch and how "viny" they can be. That freebie sounds wild. Where did it come?

I will definitely plan for it. Will probably run as many as I can and keep them small. Hope for a good keeper.

Got this order from ChiTown seeds. I've been very happy with them, only $57 for a 5 pack shipped, and shipping took 2 days. I am in the Midwest to be fair, but they seem to beat NASCs price on a lot of the stuff I want. Also been sitting on these freebees for a while:

3 Humboldt - Dos Si Dos X Fortune Cookie
2 Humboldt - London Pound Cake X Wedding Tree

Oh NO!!! I have read stories from people that said they had herms, but it was super minor and they panicked and threw away what woulda been good plants. They learned that it was only a few pickable sacks and that it only did it at the beginning. You could wait it out and risk possible seeding or just kill em now. You would think HSC would work that crap out of their lines.
I'm on my second run with this breeder, and having mixed results; which has been the case with EVERY breeder in the past 10 years.
This would include Bodhi, 20twenty Mendocino, and Dynasty.
I have not had any HSC plants that have shown inter-sex tendencies.
What I have had, and I'll discuss this with them; are too many beans with weak vegetative tendencies/lack of vigor.
The 2 strains that I have run twice, mountain top mint/garlic butter; are fantastic though; very healthy throughout grow cycle....leaves pointing to the heavens as they should. Anyone doing MTM please take note, if you're prone to sativa anxiety; let them amber up nicely...smoke is pretty intense upstairs.
My PPD beans didn't pop after 3 tries, I bought direct; so they offered to replace those.
:peace:

They were a "promotional exclusive" for a music festival of the same name. "First music festival with its own strain."

"Not to be confused with Northern Lights" was about all the description they gave for it, which gave me a big chuckle.

HSC got paid, and I bet it's okay weed, but if anybody has grown it, they haven't shared online.
Just popped a second one of these, the first died out very shortly after sprout.
Second one will definitely make it, so will update...errr; come Memorial Day or so.

You could always go with the new Triploid strains. Those not only won't herm, but they won't even accept pollen.

Thinking about making a purchase, hoping you all can give me some feedback. I'm interested in The Upsetter, Blueberry Pancakes, and Raspberry Parfait. Hoping the Upsetter is a more stable version of Squirt. The pancakes and parfait seem pretty true to name and I didn't see anyone with negative experiences. Anyone else grow these have advise?

got my order!! they gave me banana melt freebies. anyone know what that is?
They dont have any info on their website. I would guess theyve bred it out and theyre testing the ladies out to see who produces the best feminized bud, and they threw in some of those. I only say that because I got their gsc as a freebie before it was released.

This is a second and wholly inappropriate tent for this strain, Blueberry Cupcake. Not only did it outgrow it, but because Gorilla Tent Lite made the design so stupid, that the top 12" is a HUGE pain in the ass to work in to adjust lights or any work where you need access to the upper part of the tent. ALL the others I have know this and have the door/zipper within a few inches of the top. I couldn't do hardly anything except break branches.
I had to stick my arm and phone in to get these pics.
