MYSTERY KUSH at 55 days

This Mystery plant was sold to me as Lavender form a Hayward club. She is NOT Lavender, of course, but I'm not sure what she is, either. Looks VERY MUCH like a kush cross to me, but I can't say for sure, of course. She has qualifying traits.

She was grown All Organically in Dirt, as ALWAYS.

Vegged for about 5 weeks and flowered out for 55 days, and she appeared to be completely finished.
I only grew one, and was testing it out. I am very surprised and impressed by the results. Have not tried it yet, but I will in the next day or two. Smells very spicy, almost Musky. Unlike anything i'm used to, but reminds me of a rich spicy aroma. Very crystallized and sticky. I will be growing more of these in the near future.

I will probably call this by Mystery Kush #1 for further reference. (I have to try it first though)
This has not gone out yet. If anyone knows anything about it, please post it here.

what makes you think it isn't lavender?

looks like lavender to me without the purps.

I have seen pics of lavender before. It's a seed company strain. Looks nothing like this plant. if you have pics, please post them. Lavender is supposed to be similar to Soma.

There's a strain called Soma A+ (Rockbud) -- Very different than that, but Lavender is supposed to be similar.

Bro your not making any sense, that most definately DOES look like lavender. I have seen the purple and green phenos and the green phenos i've seen look alomst exactly alike. Same tall growth structure with tight buds that obviously have a sativa style growth but yet are dense like indicas. Besides, seed strains can have an endless amount of phenos, that doesn't mean that your lavender is going to look exactly like someone elses. So just because you saw a pic of lavender that looked different, doesn't mean the plant you have isn't lavender. Besides, i don't know where you got the kush thing from, it's far from a kush...you can tell by the growth style. Kids nowadays automatically aweseom that an indica dominated strain is "kush", it's a fad.

thats strange because that plant looks nothing like a kush, it has more sativa in it, which is definitely what lavender has....It just looks like it without all the purple...if you don't drop the temps enough during budding, you will not end up with purple plants. why would you buy something labeled as lavender, and think it isn't?

imagine the purple leafs, and your bud looks alot like lavender. I think you are basing your thought that it isn't lavender more on the leaf color than the buds. am I correct?

I dunno, medikushs plants have a way more 'foxtail' style bud than the lavander pictures

well hopefully soma chimes in and tells us if it is or isn't...I suggest medikush to PM him and give a link to the picture asking...if anyone would know if it is lavender...soma would.

It's called phenotypes, no plants are exactly alike. I have seen alot of phenos that look just like his, so that leads me to believe it IS lavender. Search on here, you will find the pics i'm talking about. Either way, it's definately not kush.

The reason for doubt is this :
I got Blue Dot from them. 2 of them. Both are different plants. Had to label them Blue Dot A and Blue Dot B, for mother and cloning purposes. Same thing with Kahuna. I am almost done growing out the kahuna (a) and Blue dot (b). They are both VERY similar, maybe even different phenos but they are VERY similar but NOT the same. The Blue dot A maybe Blue Dot actually, but i have yet to grow it out.
The girl at the counter was really rude at the Hayward location. She didn't want me to see how many mites were on the plants, so you cannot look at the clones or touch them to inspect them. I told her to make sure to keep them seperated properly, as I could see she was handling them with complete disregard. She snapped back at me that she does this all the time, and she knows shat she is doing. Yeah, like shit she does. The place had lots of cuts in poor condition and i had to revive them to get them happy again. Very poor quality on clone care...with lots of mites that had to be cleaned up. Very little quality control. And that's mainly why I doubt the integrity genetic lineage of some of these. I have my doubts, but I hope my Skunk #1 (from the same club) is what it is supposed to be.

Anyways....now, the leaves on the plant are NOT lavender leaves. They are very kushy. I thought as it was mothering, that it was a kush and mistook it at first glance, for one or two of my kushes.

Bro do you understand what phenotypes are? Your plant most definately looks like lavender, even if it didn't look like it...there is still a very good chance it's the real deal. When dealing with seeds, it's possible to get many varying phenos. Yes, not all lavenders have the same leaves as yours, but i guarantee it's probably just an indica phenotype, as it resemble the indica phenotypes of lavender i have seen. And those leaves aren't very kushy looking at all. Sure, they are wider than the normal purple pheno of lavender (this is normal) but they still definately aren't as wide and fat as kush leaves, you can definately still see some sativa in those leaves. Also, kushes don't have that foxtail like growth. That's probably because lavender is leaning on the indica side, but has a sativa like growth to it. Don't automatically assume it's kush, if by chance it's not lavender it's still some type of hybrid that isn't pure indica like most kushes

no offense medi, yer plants are tight, but you should leave some more of the fan leaves on when you take your flower shotz, especialy if you are looking for identification help. As you know, the fan leaves can tell alot of the story..

nice plant tho, it does look a lil 'kushier' in the bud leaves than lav, more meat on em'. but similar in flower structure to her compared to pics i've seen of lavander.

Allow me to retract this statement...I checked my notes and the cut came from New Remedies, not Hayward. But, nonetheless, their clones were sometimes mislabeled as well. Thgey dealt in may of them at once, however, the difference with New Remedies, was that their trays were pretty consistent in what they were. If a tray was White Rhino, all of them were White Rhino in most cases, but the labeling of the strain could have been wrong.

Ok, and back to my main point: What makes you assume they mislabled the strain? Please read my post about different phenotypes. Just because something doesn't look exactly like someone elses doesn't mean it's not the same strain. Even when grown from clone, plants will vary under different conditions. I mean, that cutting looks very nice anyways, so why would they mislable a strain? If the cut is that good, i highly doubt that it's not the real deal.
