I placed an order with Attitude. I purchased a 10 seed Breeder Pack of regular beans. The description is as follows:
DarkHorse Genetics Seeds Kings Banner XIII Regular Marijuana Seeds

Two outstanding strains combined to bring ultimate kushyness and potency together. This heavy hitter will cause couch lock effect. Very good variety for medical use will combat pain and insomnia.

Genetics : King Louie XIII x Joseph OG x Bruce Banner #3
Flowering Time : 63 Days
Sex : Regular
Type : Indica

They threw in some free seeds. Freedom of Seeds Dieselicious, G13 Labs Seeds Strawberry Éclair, Short Stuff Seeds Auto Gorilla Shizzle. They also threw in Barneys Farm Seeds Cookies Kush, Dinafem Seeds Moby Dick, Humboldt Seed Organization Gorilla Breath, G13 Labs Seeds Skunk #1, Pheno Finder Seeds StarCake. And lastly I received a Strain Hunters Seedbank Seeds Flowerbomb Kush.

Here are some looks at the babies 48 hours old.

I also germinated a Purple Kush Auto and the Moby Dick photoperiod. The Purple Kush Auto was planted into a 3 gallon pot. The Moby Dick is being grown because of her description caught my attention.
Dinafem Seeds Moby Dick Feminized Cannabis Seeds

The Dinafem Seeds Moby Dick is one of the strongest and very typical sativa. It is the result of crossing the 2 best clones of Mother Plants, a sativa with an indica. Dinafem Seeds Moby Dick is our most psychoactive strain and it produces a great hunger and thirst. It is advisable to eat and drink well, to counteract its effects due to this increase in appetite. The sativa has a wood, pine, incense aroma, and the indica type is sweeter. To develop the Moby Dick to its full potential, it needs a lot of light. Harvested outdoors, it needs full sun, plentiful soil and water and widely spacing the trees 3 m apart will ensure trees which grow to 3 m tall and a harvest of up to 1500 grams in optimal conditions, it is mould resistant. The flowering period is quite fast indoors (60/70 days). Moby Dick has a mild scent when growing but don’t be fooled, it has a powerful stone. The combined genetics of Haze and White Widow make the Moby Dick plant quite strong. Moby Dick is a psychoactive plant, with a THC concentration of up to 21% and presence of THCV, a compound from equatorial sativa and which occurs in response to solar ultraviolet rays and which enhances the effect of THC to such an extent that with 2 or 3 Cal, the effects of Moby Dick are incredibly powerful.

@SmokezAlot are You copying me......? Lol
I just chopped a Moby Dick 3 days ago!
And have Kings Banner in veg and flower at the moment.....
The Moby Dick was huge, I ran it for 80 days of 12 on 12 off from seed.
There's No Way it'll be done in 60 days from seed, no way.
I'd to tie it down big time, weaving it like a basket and raise the other plants, RQS Royal Gorrilla and Criticals 4 - 6 inches up to get the canopy even.Its true wat they say about the Moby Dick, you need to put it into flowering earlier than you would with other strains as it is a Monster of a plant and it'll take over the grow area.
I've a clone of it I'm gonna run again but I'm putting it in flower a lot sooner to keep it more manageable. Mine was multi branching and wanted to grow out wide and tall.
Buds are big and tight enough but not overly dense which is good against any mould problems.
Mine has undertones of lemon smell, not overpowering and that hazy taste.
Should be nice when it's properly dried out.
I've tried a smoke of the Moby Dick that I fast dried and it's a really nice smoke.

The Kings Banner pheno I have is a very small short squat plant, smallest plant I've grown in years. Ideal for grow areas with limited head height. It's a very strong indica.
First grow from seed I got a bit of bud rot as it's buds are super dense.
Good luck with your grow

Hello Moflow! You know they say great minds think alike. :bigjoint: That Moby Dick sounds like a hell of a plant I will definitely take what you said into consideration, when approaching growing this girl out. I really appreciate the advice. The Kings Banner I ended up getting because the Bruce Banner and the Bruce Banner 2.0 were sold out. The Kings Banner's description sounded good to me, so I went with it. Also good to know she grows small. I plan on pollinating the Moby Dick with some Kings Banner pollen.

Yea, I got the Bruce too lol a 10 pkt regulars.
I've 1 plant from seed that was in a terrible state i got off a mate but its coming round now, must be 4 months old in a 2 litre pot. I've a Candida CBD , Sensi Star original 11 year old cut from seed - a keeper, RQS Royal Gorrilla around 2 years old- a keeper. I concentrate on these 2 and I get seeds of other strains just to grow out from friends.

The Sun is great for vegging here through the summer but no good for flowering so these will eventually end up indoors for flowering.
The Candida CBD will just have to ride it out outside lol

Today is day 12 for the babies :bigjoint: . They have had 2 feedings so far. The last one was 2 days ago. The nutrients were mixed into a half gallon milk jug. 2ml Connoisseur A and 2ml Connoisseur B. They will get potted up early next week. It will either be Monday or Tuesday, into 1 gallon pots. They will stay in these pots until they show sex. If I get 2 out of 4 to be female that would be golden. If I end up with only one that's fine too that's what cloning is for. I love to clone and never lost a cut in 5 years. Knock on wood, here are the babies. The next update they will have on new shoes. :peace:

Yesterday the plants were transplanted from solo cups to 1 gallon pots. They seem to have done okay and enjoyed the change. They also got their third feeding yesterday after transplant. They received 4ml A and 4ml B of Connoisseur Grow.
They also got 1ml Superthrive and 5ml Cal-Mag. Today is day 15 for the babies. The Kings Banner #4 is in the lead.

9.8.19 The Moby Dick and the Purple Kush Auto were topped this morning. I never topped an auto so, we will see how the Purple Kush Auto does. She already is growing slow as shit and I was gonna kill her. I decided to just throw her in the back corner and see how she does. She still might get the ax if she don't show me something.

9.14.19 Plants #4 and #2 have been transplanted into 3 gallon air-pots. They are not showing sex as of yet. The way they are growing I am almost certain they are female. And the way #1 and #3 are growing I am assuming they are males. Time will tell, hopefully this week

Here is a look at Moby Dick this girl was fed the recommended amount today. 8ml Advanced Nutrients Connoisseur Grow A and 8ml B. Next time she receives a feeding it will get bumped up to 16ml a gallon. Today this girl was topped again for a total now of 4 tops. I will leave her alone to grow as she wants from here on out. I'm going to take a clone or 2 next week from the bottom. As I plan on cleaning her up. :jointman: Clone will be pollinated with the lucky male from Kings Banner male.

Okay here is a look at the 2 suspected Kings Banner females #4 and #2. #1 and #3 are still in 1 gallon pots. I am about 80% sure that #1 and 3 are male. They will live to show me sexy parts. If they are male #1 will be used for pollen collecting. All the plants were topped yesterday. They were fed today everything is going good so far. :biggrin:

9.19.19 Well I had a look over the plants like I do every morning. Plant #2 is a confirmed female showing one white hair. Nothing on any of the other Kings Banners, but I am confident #4 is female too.
