Has anyone tried Greenhouse seeds "the Church"

I grew the church out a few months ago. I will give you some advice..... Give her room. . She gets bushy but stays short. She really gets bushy.. I did no pruning at all, no topping, pinching, anything and I had what looked like a landscaping bush. I may suggest lollipopping or topping until the canopy is even as the lower growth was minimal and very spacrce popcorn buds down there. I pulled 2.5 oz's of popcorn from the bottom of the plant when I harvested and made hash with it. The other main colas were beautiful. i had to cut them in half to get them in the curing jars. Some of the spears were around 10" or so. I had to harvest about 10 days early so my plants didn't even finish swelling as The Church puts its wait on in the last few weeks. Awsome smoke. Very musky scent but with berries in the aftertaste. The high is exactly as described in The Big Book Of Buds #3.. I have collective members that love it for serious pain. For me it was a great day time medication and it made me just feel happy. If I didn't grow in a SOG, I would love to be growing her out again.. But that plant really needs room... So give it plenty and you will like what you get. Here are a pictures of some of the buds..

I recently tried germinating that mutherfuck3r "the church". didnt germ in the paper towel after 7 days, so I popped it in the soil and within like 20 hours or something it popped. :D
Hey Chef, glad you were successful, hows it going for you now? :blsmoke:

this is our 1st time grow using ghs the church in a hydro setup and a 400w hps from start to finish. real slow to start but flowered at 10 inches and booming now

Looking good, mind if i sub up to this one?:peace:

I have greenhouse seeds uk cheese, bubba kush, and NYC sour diesel in the same room as Mr. Nice guys seeds Super silver haze, critical mass and Devil. I also have positronics black widow in there also. All of em are in aeroponics recieving superthrive, clonex, mag-i-cal, b1,nutz and protekt silica. I started them in light seed warrior soil then transfered them to my aeroponics boxes(took weeks to recover from that one, I dont recomend transplanting soil to aero)So far I gotta say the greenhouse seed strains seem to be the weakest. super silver haze, critical mass and devil are thriving so much more. They are aprox 6 weeks old all recieving the same nutes as from clone so that I could pick out the strong and mother. My greenhouse seeds cheese is doing poorly(the wilted one in the pic alone) and im not impressed at all, the bubba kush is looking good, the diesel is so-so, the mr nice guys seeds are all taking off! SSH is the original canna cup 3 time champion and she shows it. Critical mass is also kicking ass and devil is doing great! Black Widow is also looking like a winnner. I might just flower out this room and try to regenerate some for mothers after I harvest. basically all the shittiest looking plants are greenhouse seeds. :(
b.t.w mr. nice guys is the original owner of greenhouse seed co, now its owned by a bunch of money hungry coke heads. all their cannabis cup winners were back then with the old owners.
Hi There, some interesting info there:mrgreen:, i was unaware of Mr Nice being involved with Green house until now, im wondering if that's why the nute coating has been dropped now? perhaps to increase profit margins or possibly because it was hindering the whole germ process, who knows.:confused:

I've never grown church...
but the smoke gets you ripped.
Good advice, and well received,lol:eyesmoke:

Hi Bulldog, i must say it was like reading a breath of fresh air ;-)(if indeed that's possible,lol) any ways those buds look very tasty and have definately provided me with a bit more motivation.:bigjoint:


Any way peeps ive popped a couple of pics on as an update, but growth still seems very slow, i must admit i did repot last week and its only really yesterday and today im starting to see growth signs again, none the less i believe she is looking healthy and doing what it says on the tin, just really slow, after reading Bulldogs post though im thinking that its really irrelavent and will make up for that later on.:cool:

Thanks everybody, and keep these little nugs of info coming with pics when possible, you just cant get enough flower porn,lol

so I just finished curing the church. 3.4oz off two small plants. I just finished my first joint of this shit and it is sweet smoke. I have been a cronic for 20 years and this is some of the best smoke i have ever tasted. Smooth and tasty, however this weed is not for the 1st time smoker thats for sure. Im ripped :)

Hey Chef,:peace:

dwight posted a vid on this thread a week or so ago( hmm maybe more) from Greenhouse showing what the church can do, that was about 5 foot tall and almost as wide,

a couple of other posts on here say it needs space so i think we are dealing with minimonster here man,lol , ive heard claims it can reach 9 foot outside,mmm:eyesmoke:

Mine wont get that size though due to the type of grow but hey man its all good:joint:

are the hawaiian, big bang and alaskian ice all sativas and the church is an indica ?
Dude

the church genetics are as follows:- Swizerland x Skunk x Super Skunk x Northern Lights, thats both indica and sativa, id say indica predominant ( thanks Tude):hump:

the big bang is probably a northern lights x white widow or a northern lightsxskunk dependant on supplier, mine was the previous but again a sativa cross indica, probably predominantly indica due to the heavy stone it gives.

i have also done some research on attitude for this info so i cant take all the credit but i have grown big bang and its pretty smooth!:clap:
 
ok, ok i know ima douche because i never posted that pic lol, but my sister is being a c*nt and wont give up the digital camera and my phone wont adjust to the hps light, but i can tell you that it is only 9 inches tall but about 17 inches wide at its widest, and the foliage is soo dense i cant even get my measuring tape through it..... i prune it often but my system is really getting tight and i should probably flower but i want them bigger for max yield per watt.

Checked the calendar and page 2 of this thread and turns out Thursday will be 6 weeks from when it broke soil.
