Almost everything I grow gets red/purple petioles, multiple breeders. Once in a while I get one thats all green, but everything from exotic seems to have this. I have read that it's nutrient related, but i don't really know. My cubes have the red striping on the stems like everything else. They are slow, I vegged mine for 4 months to get 2.5 ft tall bushes. Hardly any stretch in flower. They are a worked IBL, so they are supposed to be slow. My two ladies are damn near identical, and both smell like sour apple/pear.
Yeah a lot of stuff I run has red/purple petioles. I always wondered if it was an npk issue from what I've read but aside from cal/mag I never really run into nutrient related issues otherwise. Wonder what causes some growers to have it and some not to.

I've noticed it in different phenotypes. I have black mambas that have solid purple almost black stems an others bright green and a few half a half. All exotics seeds seem to show these sort of variations. @trippnface you should have let those runts grow out I had two runts from extreme orange and they turned out to be some fire and yielded a good bit.

right on! . def interesting; il get a pic once i spray off all the diatomaceous earth. looks pretty intense right now lol. got 1 other strain with some starfighter in it; a little color; but nothing quite like the girl i kept. i had a gelato bagseed that had a pretty purp stem; but this looks gnarlier for sure. still got half the pack; guess i will treat the remaining runts with more respect. want that male for sure.

i prtob should have put emm off to the side and see what they do; but they were so slow i was def not guna use them for my full terms outdoor. seriously almost OGKB like slowness. I need that hardcore growth vigor. maybe not some f1 vigor; but something .

grew a pack of black mambas .. got 6 females .. all 6 full blown hermie at around day 30 ....not like.. spot 1 hermie on them and pluck it off and let it finish.. im talking these went full retard all in the same week .. covered in big clumps of hermies..a shame... also had a couple candy in their and they hermied also....what the hell... i love my grease monkey even though it will hermie to if you piss it off but where is the quality control.. if your are putting out hermies like this you shouldn't be in buisness..

lol.. are the ogkb phenos that notoriously slow? i got a few PB breath waiting all month to pop and those are the phenos i'm after.

Does any1 defoiliate exotic gear? Getting some massive leaves on my kimbos. I'm talking paper plate large. I'm doing an experimental round this time around. mass defoil.

To defoliate or not isnt a breeder wide thing. My kimbo kush f2 was the absolute worst/waste of time strain ive grown. I wasted months in veg and not one out of the pack ever got to the point I would consider flowering. Just twisted stalled crap, I couldnt imagine defoliating because that shit never grew period.
Id guess its gonna stay short so defoliate.

Hate that for ya cookie. My kimbos grow vigorously, so much so, I had to turn down my veg lights and defoliate the hell outta them just to slow them down! I have 5 in flower a few weeks apart. 2 of them will be at day 21 come monday. They were defol'd before flip. They have since rebounded and sprouted the huge fan leaves I spoke on earlier. Gonna attack them again and see what happens. Also, my Kimbo's #'s 1&3 stretch like a mofo.

wow running trap star and mamba no problems (well trap is less than 2 weeks old) mamba is about done. I hear a lot about hermie from exotic but we have not experience it yet and I hope not
I haven't either unless it's my fault. I think user error are key in these issues.

My kimbos I've grown have been super starters and crazy fat nuggets and colas dense as hell oh and everything is grown under LEDs

i kill every OGKB dom pheno i came across; in any cross now haha

i kept 2 last year; poppee same time; or earlier; than an in house strain that yielded 4 pounds.

didnt even get 1 off the OGKB dom girls; per.

huge mistake
