I think the Blueberry line is one of the big name in the game I've not grown yet. For many years I've seen many people raving about the delicate qualities of those genetics but I've never dare to give it a try. Those last months I've had an itch to make a grow with the big stars of the 90's like Super Skunk and White Widow, kind of a nostalgic travel to my first steps in the world of cannabis growing when those lines were absolutely dominating the canna world. But I could certainly add a some Blueberry genetics in this old times grow as it was at this time a big name as well, just one I've never tried unlike the other famous ones.
I've seen Navy Cross, ECSD x Blueberry who look absolutely stellar but I'm not sure it would fit in "Stars of the 90's" kind of grow. How easy is it to grow BB compared to Skunk or WW who are pretty easy to content?

BB takes a little delicacy
She doesn't like hot soil, curls up real bad with too much N. Feed low and slow.
Also, her terps make her a mecca for mites. So be sure to have essential oils on hand to melt their exoskeleton.
BB is also very sensitive to light leaks and variations in night length.

Just have plenty of space for roots to stretch and keep the nutrients on the lower side, especially N. A good organic soil and water does wonders. Along with just planting outdoors. Blueberry and Flo are still stand out unique compared to your other 90s lines and to todays lines.

I really liked the blue v2. Both mothers were nld, and one was choc thai dominant and thr other was a beautiful juicy fruit pheno. I grew them outside here in Michigan and they shined. Highly recommend those for blue lovers that want more nld thai influenced blue. I also made a outcross with those parents to my blue star males. It really enhanced the character of both.

Can you please elaborate on the juicy fruit pheno? I was wondering about these. They must not go too long if you finished them outside. How does this one smell compared to the F13?

These are way more on the blueberry side with the hawaiin punch/juicy fruit bubblegum combo. The larfy bottoms from these outdoor plants had more value in effect to me than fresh new candy strains. This is the type of cannabis that you would still smoke the 1 year old shake of. Dj crossed to the afghan male to shorten flower times then selected for the sativa effects he loved. These genetics endur and shine during a long cure, thus giving them good shelf life, which is lacking in most of todays candy kush hype hybrids. The new stuff is good to smoke when dry but oxidizes within the first 2 to 3 months.

F13 has much more incense, and perfume, and cologne notes from cedar, sandalwood, cherry wood to fresh floral notes like juniper, jasmine.

Couple pics of this blueberry delight combo that Dj did the selections on and I simply "rented a room for an hour or two".

Hey @Miraculous Meds
Brother, it's clear this guy has no personal experience with DJs lines and is just repeating complaints from old posts going back to the period where DJ stopped selling seeds for a while.
10 -12 years ago, this forum and others were filled with the comments he parrots above.
The same complaints were made about all the Amsterdam strains ("not as good as it was in the 90's man . . . ")
Of course many oif the complaints about Duitch gear were true.
The story of DJ's gear was influenced by completely different factors.
Maybe DJ's gear is as good as it always was, but the rest of the world has changed around it, from cannabinoid levels to terp levels, to effects.
It's all different now.
DJ's gear is the same.

I am glad to have you working the lines as I really respect your selection and breeding skills.
I think DJ is very lucky to have found someone who obviously shares the passion for what he created, the skills to keep it alive through new work, and the integrity to work with him honorably.

Hopefull Stoner probably doesn't realize how lucky we are to have you here sharing your work with DJs lines, and insight into that work direct from the man himself. You are providing an objective view of the state of HIS art, while doing your own work that combines the best of DJ's gear with an eye to contemporary tastes and expectations.

As far as everyone moving on . . . DJs work is carried by some of the biggest seedbanks in the world.
If NOBODY liked it and EVERYBODY moved on disappointed, none of the seedbanks would sell it anymore. Right?

Hang in there amigo. The forums are filled with people who don't know what they don't know.
Sometimes it's even people who have been around a while and should know better.
For myself, if I wanted to run something "blue" I would come to you and discuss options.

So, why is it you say assumptive to me but you have assumed much about me as well as dude I’m replying to now.

FYI I was around back then and what you called parroting doesn’t apply when I’m not the repeater but one of the originals who dealt with DJ’s BB specifically pre 2k BB sometimes called the outkastt cut.
That plant made BB my number one strain of all time and it still holds that position after all these years.

So much for blanket assumptions of strangers you don’t know 😱.

For the record I have never heard a peep from DJ explaining anything about the details about him losing his prized moms/dads at least not back then.

Only what you’ve said and claimed have I heard and that’s just now.
I never claimed to know all of DJ’s pvt details.
Yet, much of what you said to inform me about DJ I already fuking knew/know !

I been around long enough to realize you grown men can’t stand a question/s or alternative view on anybody you are a fanboy of.

With that comes the snarky kiddy remarks pretending like ur the new plant gods lol. Seek it in threads for years candy other than folly/Fuckery it’s never been a big deal to me because i innerstand the whole dynamic that surrounds it well enough to not give a fuk anymore.

Yes, I go back to overgrow where I cut my teeth 🦷 on uranium cranium with his crew circa 2003’ approx. over the years have been a member of at least 10-12 sites I reckon and guess what most all dealt with DJ’s Blueberry 🫐 in one capacity or another.

This is exactly the type of bs that’s driven many old timers away from the boards.
This site itself has had droves leave for various reasons that were legit. This is well known in our community too.

Don’t be so sure you know what ur saying to a stranger who’s been around but isn’t known to you.

Put ur big boy panties on or stfu and stop acting 🎭 like highschool boys. They love to ride someone who they don’t know but hate the feeling of anyone tries to do the same or even far less. Online facts

Now, here’s a couple hugs 🤗 🤗 for y’all to ease ur spirits and calm down ur egos. I’m not ur enemy duhhh

Yet, I can and will defend myself when wrongly assessed/attacked by strangers or anyone else. If you can dish it but can’t take it we know what it makes you don’t we ?

Now, play nice hear 👂

One last thing to you both.
When you read/hear someone try not to add/subtract anything. Cause as soon as you do, it’s you and ur ego that is causing an issue in your own hearts!

Yet, what you thought wrong mkt you then try to attribute to the other person or alter what they say to suit your position.

You butt buddies as we used to call your type on the boards are now being ignored. I don’t need to deal with you and I control the narrative !

Does it sound like I have experience now ? 😂

Is the intent of your posts for people to take your opinions seriously?

People that don't have purpose get lost and drama becomes their company. Its sad. I have been there. One can find much more happiness following their own dreams and working to make them reality. I don't sweat people like this any more cause I'm following my path. Waist of energy if it isn't making positive progress toward realizing my dreams.

Onward my blues brother.
