Wow, that purple stemmed one looks very unique...would be interesting to see how different it smokes from the others. The SK you have as "highlight pheon" is absolutely gorgeous, thick and bushy!

i've smoked purple stemmed sk before, it was mainly carrying after the diesel pheno, very nice afternoon smoke, or middle of the day if youd on't mind movin a lil slower ;)

Ah so Diesel tends to have purple stems? I saw that you just mentioned in kush lover's that you're growing OG to see if it's worthwhile compared to SK...how do you feel about Diesel? I hear everyone talk about it a lot, and I smoked some once (well, I was told it was diesel but sometimes people lie to impress), but wasn't blown away by the bud I tried. Got the same kind of high as nameless euro mid-grade MJ.

the true east coast sour diesel has a very nice high. high grade afghani hybrid mainly afghani dominant with some hints of sativa that keep it sort of a soary high.

the diesel pheno of sour kush tends to have purple stems, I don't know about the other sour diesels out there.

full garden shot

desert valley kush (got tricked into bud, slowly coming out of it.)

tryna's LUSH (2 of em)

pure tahoe og kush:

pre98 bubba kush x tahoe og (from whyte)

sour kushes (4 in the shot, 5 total)

other sour kush that wasn't in the first frame.

green stemmed pheno looking to be bubba dom:

the highlighted pheno, judging by all the characteristics I've seen so far, this one looks to be the best pheno of sk judging by characteristics, I'm betting the bud will prove me correct in the end, we will see.

and one of the other sk's purple stems. before any of you try to say it's a deficiency, all these plants got the same nutrients, same water, same food, and none of them have purple stems except 2 of the 5 sour kushes. so no nonsense please.



I forgot to take a pic of the 2 cheesequakes I have in here as well. but I guess that shows my disdaine for subcool. haha. well they are in there and they re doing fine.

that's it, new pics in a few more weeks.

I see the tall mounds around the SK's and others....Does that help a lot with pests?

Gotta disagree on the ECSD genetic makeup. It's definitely heavily sativa dominant.

I was only speaking of the high I felt within the diesel pheno of sk. so I guess that is pretty heavily influenced by the bubba side of things because of the way chitown bred it.

forgive me as I've only tried pure ecsd once and I found it to have a great deal of afghani influence in the high despite being sativa dominant. perhaps the person just got a more afghani pheno.

no but it does help with watering and pruning a great deal.

this is my first year doing the mounds like ethat, the main reason I'm doing it like that was because it USED to be a flat bed with holes in it, but I realized the roots weren't going very wide, so it was more efficient to make mounds to make use of the soil instead. so far they seem to be loving it.

my area is in general very good for pest control as long as you are growing in the open air and sun and not under any trees or within grass and shit. guerilla growing out here = pest city. growing out in the open like I am = almost no pest problems at all.

I think it might help me (if I stay where I am) because my ground is so shallow to get more depth for the roots. I have a huge pile of extra dirt that I could use as mounds already.

I actually spray my neighbors trees that are bordering my yard.

well, just for reference sake, the holes go down 2-3 feet deep BELOW the mounds... so there's a lot more soil there than it appears.

I'd recommend you dig actual holes and fill them with soil like I did. make mounds if you want but at minimum dig deepish holes (atleast 1.5 feet)
