Right on man, same here Pre 98 is my fav of all time. I took clones of my best one and will grow it exclusively next round. I fell in love with this strain back in 96 when I didn't even know what it was. Me n a couple buddies got it from clone, mothered it out and kept it alive until about 2000 when we all got hit by PM and lost it. 12 years later I find myself in a dispensary sniffin a bunch of product and stopped dead in my tracks when my nose hit the pre 98. It was like I stepped into a time machine. I bought a little just to b sure and the smoke was the same too. Although it tasted like the grower didn't do it right, not a good rinse.
Found some seeds from Cali Connection and so far it grows and smells like the original.
We called it Tha Durb back in the day, thought it might b Durban poison until we found some real DP.
I just know it was the DANKEST shit I ever smoked for a long long time, and am sooooo stoked to have it again.

It's funny how either a friend or a friend will have that strain. Dutch Passion from a friend 12 years back . Damn! Bubba clones are super telltale if right! So fatty!

Got my fingers crossed for a pair of method sevens for Father's Day. Then it'll be lawn chair and cooler time!

Nute change tonight as well as a root check.
Roots are clogging tubes and slowing drain and fill time.
Note to self-go up a size in tubing next go round.
In the meantime... This is yummy ass beer, thank you wifey for bringing me home a tester.
Will post some pics of the root check tonight.

I love me some vibrant white roots!lovely.i dunno if anyones ever noticed or remarked on this but the roots that a plant will grow in soil are a little different to in hydro.in soil the roots are really really fuzzy were as in hydro the roots seem more kinda ropey without the fuzz.just thought id comment on that.
all your girls are lookin grande although im not too sure how well those bubbas will fill out that scrog net if theyr just flipped as bubba doesnt stretch too much.
iv ran the wwx bb years ago.was quiet nice.iv ran most of female seeds strains and most were decent one or two were good.

Thats funny you say that. When I saw your scrog net I thought it was going to be a little tight for you and opted not to say anything as you are pretty stoked bout your grow on. Good to see you changed your mind. You with what you have going would have been struggling later in flower.
