That sounds very interesting indeed. Maybe the Chunk can bring the flower time down and still retain that great buzz.

Hey Raco, all I can say is that you've made me jealous! This by far my favorite joint project strain. By chance did you get to make any bubble from her trim?

I think JLP said it best by just showing the results. This thread was called "Best Blueberry" not "opinions on DJ Shorts breeding practices." Once agian Afro please keep it in your pants or at least in your own forum-this is getting old........

While i see you dont want your product bashed, i think that Afro and others ( including myself) have just stated based on growing and smoking what is a good product for Blueberry and what isnt. I dont see buying a pack of 10 beans for over $100 that contains mutants and hermies to be a "good blueberry" weighing in cost, time ot grow, risk of pollination due to hermies, risk of mutants in a pack for over $100 as a good example of Blueberry.

It sucks enough having to deal with a 50/50 shot of males vs females. then to thorw in odds of hermies and mutants into themix just doesnt seem worth the cost.

I will say it again, the best and only Blueberry worth growing is Dabney Blue. Everything else is just a watered down version. I am sure Dj's blue berry makes great crosses but as a stand alone strain it leaves alot to be desired.


Since its well known DJ's blueberry contains mutants and hermies perhaps a reduction in price or at least a warning to buyers about herms and mutants. A label saying mutants may produce good herb or something. Not just a pretty pic and a description only highlighting the stengths of the strain . You know, tell the peopel the truth

btw,Bluedancer and Bluetooth are Blueberry hybrids...TRC Blueberry came from DJ´s and those are some fine smoke,the Blue13 rocks as well! :D

Any hermies are more than likely caused from environmental factors. Just don't see many reports about them hermie-ing and I have never had one do it. I've never heard of Dabney Blue, go figure, but if it's got Blueberry in it, then it is also from DJ. It may have been worked upon some(TRC's), but it is still DJ's.

Beyond the genetics discussion, I find great entertainment value in Afropip's pavlovian response to piss all over any thread discussing DJ's genetics. How many times has this happened now. Everytime it does, Afropips is given the sage counsel that even if (and that's a big IF) his arguement is valid, he is scoring negative P.R. points for himself everytime he does this. But just wait a few days, another thread asking about DJ's genetics will be appear and Afropips will be all over it, pissing away to try and cover DJ's scent and mark the territory as his own. Hilarious.

No Dabney is a clone only from oregon. Hasnt been "worked " in at least 15 years. Just an old clone that really gives blueberry smell and taste. I doubt mine where from enviornmental factors. I had many other strains with them and they were only ones to hermie. I have dealt with many strains that are sensative to light leaks and other conditions that cause hermies and never had a problem. Only hermies i had were from Blueberry

Dabney still could be Blueberry. DJ has been working it since the mid 80's. He was in Oregon back then. Good chance someone had some and kept a clone. I am in no-way doubting your growing skills. Sometimes things happen, ya know;).

Nevermind,
Your opinion is not abrasive and therefore just that,an opinion...
It's not a negative opinion thats wrong,it's bashing someone for no good reason...And trying to turn people off from certain breeders while yourself selling seed is wrong,plain and simple...

I have never had a hermie personally...And have found great plants from a pack of seeds...I've also grown packs of Blueberry with NO malformities..

Most of the time it's just a set of leaves or maybe even 2 or 3 sets but they always grow out of it...

How many packs of Blueberry have you run?Just curious...

I have always had a few in the pack that really smell and taste of berries..

Usually I am abrasive, so i am glad i didnt come off that way. I grew one pack and my friend on the west coast grew another pack. I used to order 2 packs of each beans i buy in order to send a pack out west and see the results of my firends room compared to mine. i didnt like them at all and he grows dabney and didnt even want to let them finish he was so dispeased. But this was back in 2002 i think. I ahvent tried any of Dj's beans anymore since then. I was completly turned off by the whole ordeal. If i am paying over $100 for a pack of beans i expect keepers out of that one pack. if you have to go thru many packs to get 1 gem then the price needs to be lowered. Noone should charge over $100 for a pack of beans that knowingly produces mutants

Nevermind you constantly bash Blueberry in threads and say nothing compares to Dabney. Wtf is Dabney I have never heard of it until you mentioned it. I'm sure it's just a nice selection from one of DJ's old blueberry. It just seems odd that you bash blueberry but love Dabney, which is a blueberry. You always say Dabney is the only blueberry worth a fuck, dude you have to realize that you and maybe a few others are the only ones that can get this Dabney. For the others like me we go with DJ or Chimera to get that blueberry taste and smell that is so sought after. Anyway I'm gonna spark up the real deal - DJ's blueberry followed by a bowl of Mental Floss, oh btw both smell and taste like fresh picked blueberry's.

DP's fem Blueberry sucks ass. From seed the few that have actually popped have been worth shit...I think they are much more nute sensitive and might do better in a soil scenario versus my veg room's E/F with other strains. JMHO

I dont think i am bashing it. For the price it costs to me it isnt worth it. For a $30-$50 i would think it was worth it. But when paying over $100 you expect some level of quality, not known mutants.

As far as Dabney? Well the thread asks " Best Blueberry?" and i responded with my opinion. Just because you dont have any experiance with Dabney or havent heard of it doenst mean its not good. Just means you have a limited experiance with certain clone onlys. I bash strains that hermie and mutate and praise those that live up to expectations or exceed them. Which is why i dont praise DJ's blueberry and i praise Dabney

I dont think you came off as a dickhead. Just someone with a difference of opinion . A difference of opinion is a good thing. No worries

I wouldnt know at all, but if I had to guess I would say Dabney had nothing to do with Dj.... but who knows?

I just finished an OPT and a Dabney in the same room. Just finished some Dj Blueberry in another room. (not from seed)

Teh Dabney and the OPT have NO similarities. Most of the pics posted of Dj's stuff look like her. The clone I have (Berks BB-Dj) doesnt either though... but it herms a little.. I dont care it fucking awesome. It looks alot like your pics CC….

I think Dabney is just a special oregon "blueberry" plant.... maybe it originated from Dj's work maybe not.... doesnt have the thai/foxtail OPT look or color like the all/most of the pics JLP posted... its great though…

Like I said earlier agreeing with many of ya, from a seedline TRC Blueberry is the SHIT!

For all the folks mad at Dj or whoever they wanna be mad at because they think someone is charging too much for seeds... dont fuckin buy em... set standards and buy from cheaper places if thats what floats your boat.

lol, people are still going to buy the shit outta BB imho… I could care less this thread is ridiculous. :eek:

I grow Dabney and Berks Blueberry ( a Dj version) they both rock in their own aspects and I wouldnt say one is better than the other…. Stated earlier in the thread. Wouldnt know about germing any of them… ill say again never grown a Dj seed.

For Dj obviously alot of folks bitch so you may wanna get a couple packs and look for the one you really like and make a mom.... but they are in there.... is this so so untrue with most if not all avail seedlines?!? Im not trying to argue abotu finding it in every pack for the price, that standard is set by the buyer and us growers... Rosy Cheeks said it.

If you are looking for some kind of blueberry seeds and you can by any chance now find TRC blue than thats the one Id go for personally. If not Dj is the man imo.
