Hey Dr.. is that's katsu's cut?
illKills, the main blowfish cut/pheno making the rounds is definately not good for commercial, I can think of 100s that are much better for that purpose.. And most of the peeps I know running her take her from 60-65.. She can be taken earlier, but imho does best left a lil longer.
Here's a thread i di for Blowfish a while ago..

Great Idea Dr. Id love to read a comprehensive thread on the fish. I wish had some pics of mine, which is a seed selection, not katsu's. If this thread is still poppin when I run her I will be sure to do so.
Great pics and thread beancounter
Take care all

heres a few shots of a Blowfish we keep for her weight. plant came from first gen beans from DF testers.
grower bred for the G13, indica dom plant, tart dark berry aromas. decent smoke with more body then head.

Huh, we have the Katsu cut and it always finishes earlier than almost everything else. Maybe I'll let it go 60 to see if it improves the effect. I say its good for commercial because it will grow single kola, (I found) the yield can be decent if dialed in right, and the bag appeal and smell are irresistable to most who get dank less often than most of us. You can put lots tight together, and with the speed (I'm used to) it's a decent turn around. No, it's not Critical Mass, but has some potential - imho, and my 2 cents. Personally it's too weak for my tastes, but the smell is wonderful.

hey bro, long, long time since we last talked. good to see ya about. that BF above, i have taken at 49 days. still good smoke, but its a better when left to go 60 days or more.
take care bro

i hear illkills, no offense meant, some cuts do much better in some gardens than others..
She does have some good veg speed on her tho, and CBF's selection obviously has al sorts of mersh potential..

This is just a regurgatation of some info i took from a friend of mine that had posted this in another thread.BLOWFISH (G13 / Blue Dot / Oregon Funk) F1
Named after the deadly Japanese delicatessen, this breeding project begun when we set out to improve taste and yield —two weak traits of the G-13— by using Oregon Funk as a pollen donor. The results were quite pleasing but the smoke test revealed that G-13's power had been downgraded somewhat. Then it was the turn of a very impressive Blue Dot hybrid stud, which qualified the G-13 with great taste and no harm to its potency, although this time yield was less than desired. Finally, we applied heavy selection to each of these two G-based lines, and crossed them giving rise to Blowfish, a winning combination of G-13's deadly punch and the quality and taste of the Funk and Dot lines.
Blowfish exhibits great F1 vigor and disease resistance in a well-behaved plant that avoids the undesirable traits of "blue" genetics (difficult to grow, brittle, leafy, poor calyx to leaf ratio) while maintaining the flavor of the Funk and Dot ancestors and the brain-warping power of the G-13. A prolific flower producer even under poor conditions (it actually prefers low nutrient levels), this low-maintenance strain bears wonderfully dense buds, with a thick coating of milky crystals that will rival the best of the "white" strains in both crystal coverage and brain-thumping quality, with much better flavor and yield.
Parental selection focused on potency and yield, as taste and resin genes were already well fixed on the Funk and Dot lines. Outstanding ancestors infuse the plant with a high quality feel, evident in the glossy leaves, harmonious phenotype and the particularly frosted, heavy and aromatic buds. Blowfish tends to branch out while adding girth to flowering clusters, forming sizeable snowy colas for excellent yield. Despite the remarkable density of its bud structure, mold and mites have not been a problem. This fish likes plenty of water as well as appropriate root and growing space, but prefers low levels of nutrients to fully express its potential.
Blowfish retained the breathless intensity of G-13, with much better yield and a unique taste of berries and motor grease with fuel undertones that will appeal to pot-snobs. The experienced puffer will recognize a rotten animal scent lurking in the background of this Puffer, a sign of the abiding sativa influence that was a common denominator in parental stock selection. Its buds smoke very smooth and clean, with a great berry taste and a hashy feel that relates to its impressive crystal coverage.
Known as Fugu in Japan, Blowfish flowers live up to its namesake as a lethal delicacy with a body-paralyzing yet heady cerebral effect that defies traditional "Indica" and "Sativa" classification. The plant's elegance stands in sharp contrast with the muscle and intensity of its buds, which stun the body but thrust the mind into a euphoric trippy experience with excellent visuals and duration. It does not seem to build tolerance with experienced smokers, maintaining its knock-out quality over repeated use.
Hope this helps as far as a lil backround goes. Here are a couple of shots of her.

Oregon funk is just Haze crossed with Oregon Purple Thai if I remeber right.
I"m in the process of popping some beans called Lionfish.
They are testers, so I'm not sure what the daddy was.
But I know it was a Kush.
So it's a Blowfish x some kind of kush.
Sounds good.
I'll let you all know how it goes.
