^^Ordered mine before christmas(girlfriend was talked into it, hehe..."i want those ones"), guess ill get them somtime next week as they havent been shipped yet..been super stoked about these beans for ages, since seeing the first post in this thread even...found this thread by Mr.Bill and kinda had a heart sinking moment...http://www.icmag.com/ic/showthread.php?t=100304&highlight=congo3...like Mr.Bill i like to breed with packets of seeds, but dont want any herms popping up down the filial line. I hope in two packets i find very few herms and a lot of good girls n boys, i dont doubt for a second that the smoke will be worth the ££'s though..
Justa6655321- I've seen your post 's about finding something to cross with the Deep Congo. Ever thought of just making f2's? You should end up with plants like both parents(Deep Chunk&Congo#3)and everything in between if you run enough.
I'm a strain addict so, I'm always buying new toys. I never seem to get around to running them though.
BeAn- I found a single set of hairs on one male D-Congo so , I killed him. I pollinated one of my girls with the non-herm, so we'll see in the future if the herm's pop up. Lets hope they don't. Though on a good note, I have not seen a single male part on any of my girls.
Good luck, you'll find some winners in two packs.
Thanks fisher15
I took a little bud to try out. Tomorrow I think I will cut the plant this sample came from. Got some of the f2 seeds drying and I hope to plant some soon.
I have been drawn towards this strain for quite some time now. A member was supposed to send some F2´s, but never came thru, so it might be time for me to order a pack of these. I remember seeing a Tom Hill quote saying that the DC crossed to something like the Congo would have a high chance of yielding the holy grail in the F2 gen. Definately worth exploring. LeanGreen those nugs look killer my man...good job!!
Thanks GDK. Smoked some before disc golf this morning, very nice sativa head to this plant.Uncured the smell and taste seem to lean to the Congo side, not as much incense smell and more of a sage and carrot aroma.
I think the same person offered me some F2's. I told him no thanks since I planned to make my own. I'm hoping to find a lot of great plants in the F2's and take them to F3 and beyond.
