Howdy fellow AKBB heads, long time lurker here. I’ve got some durbalayan going as well as some testers: romulan x Beatrix choice, and black Dom/lavender x Beatrix choice. They are all day 14 flower. I’ll be posting some pics and descriptions soon. All nice and vigorous.

So what are some of the strains you
Ak bean heads got going?

I currently have William's Wonder F4 and
Kali Mist coming out of seedling stage.
The only AKBB I've got going right now is a Dope Beard cut I kept that is about 3 weeks into flower. I want to get more of my AKBB strains going but I'm dicking around with some gooey breeder stuff and some of my own chucks at the moment.

wonder if it has anything to do with Rooibaard, or redbeard (Transkei) South African strain?
If I remember correctly, I think AK said it was from an Alaskan crew (or person) that had a Durban cut that he used to cross the SSSC Durban with. In my imagination its an old school crew that called themselves dope beards. Ha. But what do I know. Think it was on the original description on JBC.

Week 7 for these...

Skunk Qabbage/Mimosa (hot trash, overripe orange, plasticine, sweet skunk) -

Blue Steel/Big Skunk (terpinolene, pine, holy basil, fresh blossom, blackcurrant? - unique and medicinal aromas) -

Had a few issues this run with dry backs hence the burned tips, but the plants don't seem to have taken too much offence.

A Bodhi run for me next, after which I'll most likely be popping some Kali Mist F4 and NL5/Haze :bigjoint:

CG/PR TK NL5 Haze
TK NL5 Haze F3 NL Dom
TK NL5 Haze / NL1 Big Fuck
Luong Probang/Black Domina
Beatrix Choice
Hawaiian Cat Piss V3

Some farther along than others, but I'm ready to crack more beans. ;-)

I'm looking forward to WW and Kali Mist also.. just got those in today.
Are you doing these outdoors? Just curious because I know you are growing at high elevation and I passed on buying Kali Mist because I was worried it might not be the best for my somewhat short outdoor season. I did get PHK BX and Skunk Qabbage BX 7 which I noticed you also got and I have a friend who got Kali Mist to grow outside this year.

I've got all these going indoors right now. I can't even start thinking about transplanting outside until mid-May, so I am trying to observe the various growth characteristics to determine which ones I think might finish up in time and tolerate the extreme environmental shifts.

I'll report back if any of the strains I have turn out to work outside. I know AK didn't really develop most of these for outdoors since Alaska is even tougher than here.

I'm looking forward to the Skunk Qabbage and PHK also. I wish I could just grow it all at once. ;-)

If anyone has any experience with the BOEL Oaxaca x Dwarf Oaxaca, I would love to hear it. I love Mexican strains and am picking some of these up... probably gonna make them smush with Vermontmans Zacatecas Tribute (Big Sur Holly Weed x 79 Oaxacan).

Any info on stature, high, smells, ect would be greatly appreciated.

Yeah I liked the ones I grew. Two were stretchy and one was short and had a hybrid high. The narrow leaf ones were more like I expected and had a decent effect but not overly strong. The short one is strong and puts me to sleep. They all purpled to some degree, and tasted lemony and hashy. They foxtailed at the end and finished around 10-12 weeks

Anyone grow PHK x DP yet? AKBB freebie from JBC. Sounds pretty interesting to me. Read through 25 pages of TKNL5Haze talk looking for info.

ive got my eye on that freebie too , breeding wise anytime you cross a pure indica (phk(nature farm cut)) with an pure sativa durban(pretty much IBL) you get REAL F1 hybrid vigor in all respects, that being said I would say there’s a TON of keepers in there

Ya I got it already, had never really heard of this guy until I got the freebies and decided to check out the thread here. But the community has good things to say it seems, so they're pretty close to the front of the line for me in terms of what I have that I might grow next.
Got a 7 pack figured I'd pop em all and select 2 females and male for them to get it on with.

Just popped:
Americanna X Beatrix Choice(Testers)
Black Domina-some giant sized seeds.
TKNl5 HazeF2-100% Germ in 24 hours.

100% Germ in 2 days for whole batch. Still have Dope Beard Durban and Beatrix Choice left.
Thanks for posting that! This kind of shared info is so helpful. This was my first of any kind of experience with BD, and I only had one pop out of the whole pack. In my case, almost all the seeds were tiny - some of the smallest I've seen. That might explains things, lol.
