Made a cross with the original cut from J.W. about 2002 : NL5xChemo X Michigan Purps .
At the time I popped about 100 beans and did a real pheno search and the keeper was a plant that had a real dense indica structure like NL but was completely purple , super dark and the most purple plant Ive come across . I called it black kush . 600 per zip but those are now referred to as " the good old days " lol .
3 runs down the line my place ended up getting hit by rippers , must have been pissed that it was only at 4 weeks , although the smell was lighting up the whole neighborhood , took the 4 week buds and smashed my lights and clones . That was the end of that .
Fast forward to 6 months ago . Popped the rest of the beans (36) and 14 popped, but didn't find that dark purple pheno this time . The best I found was a sativa leaning plant that finishes at 8-9 weeks , has the chemo smell and taste with a little fruity pebbles mixed in and is light lime green with the original purps structure . Super Super vigorous plants vegging so fast . Got some pollen off of 2 males , gonna hit it and see if I can cast a wide enough net and find a pheno like the original purps with that same vigor !!!
Ill post pics when they finish up .
