First up, thanks Sannie for putting these in the freebie section, glad they made it through the postal nightmare.
thanks to you for showing interest and hopefully they are worth it.
I thought i would post here all the info regarding this cross, that way if anybody asks elsewhere they can be pointed in this direction, will probably post it in my thread aswell.
I got the Dirty Harry seeds from the Motarebel section at Sannie's about 3 years ago.
Dirty Harry > Grapefruit bx1 x Woodhorse based Herijuana by Motarebel
Strain Pedigree/Comments: Dirty Harry was named for the earthy flavors that the female Grapefruit bx1 is known for, it's "earthy flavours" rather than the rough character portrayed by Clint Eastwood.
The Grapefruit mother was originally crossed with a Blueberry male and then backcrossed
to the Grapefruit clone. The BX shows some variation from sweet grapefruit to an
earthy7berry from the Blueberry male. The Bx has been line bred for 2 generations and is
fairly stable.
The Herijuana male adds more density and a stronger stone to the buds. The combination created an easy growing plant that'll please the beginner as well as the seasoned pro
alike. Dirty Harry's strong stone kills unwanted body pain and drains stress. The sweet tasting buds will have you coming back for more!
DH is a bit tall and leggy so i went for the Grapefruit side to try to shorten/fatten her up and found Next Generation's Dynamite which is a Grapefruit back cross, to make seeds.
Here's their description.........
Squat growing Indica strain, well known for its heavy yield and high quality bud. Very fruity, thick, resinous smoke. Deep grapefruit smell that finishes with pink/purple colors as the buds ripen. Dynamite is our stabilized version of Canada’s famous Grapefruit clone. Winner 2005 Oregon Medicinal Awards.
At first i didn't rate the 2 best female Dynamite, but after a long cure they became better. The best male looked great, so he did his thing on a whole small DH plant which resulted in hundreds of seeds. After about 4 weeks drying i de-seeded the buds, threw 6 or 7 seeds in a new outside garden bed with fresh compost, watered it and forgot about them for a few days. Low and behold up came 3 seedlings, one got eaten, so i cloned the 2 left which were 3 inches tall and they actually rooted. They have been put in coco and will be flowered in about 3-4 weeks just to see what they look like, will start some more seeds about the same time. So i have germination tested them, thats all.
Dirty Harry is a 9 weeker and Dynamite is a 8 weeker, so these are in that range.
