Hey guys,
ya, I know. I haven't been around. Things are good and getting better. As for the VB and pheno's. It all depends on what you get. I used two females. One, a pure Mango smelling pheno that was AWESOME! The other, a Purple blackish pheno. The male was a mango smelling, but on the lite side. Good health and strength and produce resin on the inner leafs closest to the stems. As for harvest times. It all depends on how your growing them. These plants where made to be grown out in the wild jungles. They tend to change indoors, but they can do well indoors
I've seen them take any where's from 9-14 weeks. Got a buddy in SF that has one of my cuts I gifted him and all the flower and trim get's made into wax. They get top dollar for it and they say it's worth the 9-10 weeks on her. All I can tell you is to watch your girls. See what they are telling you. Watch the resign color and figure out when you think it might be a good time. Harvest some early and then harvest some later. Finding the sweet spot will be rewarding.
When I was doing the Cannabis events and selling seeds at the events. I will tell people that these are going to take some time. 95% of the people at the events wanted something that would yield monster numbers and be done yesterday. I would explain to them. Reduce your numbers, flower longer and your getting the same numbers or better with less plants and a stronger tripper high. Most of them didn't want to hear it.
Any ways, sorry to Hi Jack. Indoors, these can finish faster and can be tricked. Outdoors in Northern Humboldt with straight VB out near Redding area. The record so far is 12lbs. That's good buds in 100gal grow bags, custom soil and done Sept-Oct. and that's taken to full term. Smoke this stuff and hang on for the trippy ride.
Nice to see some pictures. Best of luck with the rest of the grow. Things seem to be going very. Keep up the great job and enjoy those girls. Sorry, I'm not around any. So, much to do and I'm now just catching up. Plus, it's that time of the season and you've got to help out friends.
Take care,
BG
