Pakistan Chitral Kush

They end up well and with big, great looking flowers @squatty Although Tom's indica lines were super prone to botrytis and pm here in the wet coast, i love the quality and traits his indica lines have to offer.
A cross between PCK and X 18 can produce outstanding results if you choose well the parent plants and if they combine well together.

The rains have arrived three or four weeks later than usual. The PCK had a good nine weeks in flower and will now be cut down. They've sustained a bit of caterpillar damage and have lost some of their smell lately but I was busy cutting down other plants.

Good looking outdoor PCK. What lattitude/climate are you?

[squatty]

Thank you for the insight dubi. If I don't have mold and mildew resistance I won't get to harvest much. I'm hoping the combination will work. Some day in the future I will find out.

Podenco, I'm at 45 North in Oregon. Plants started flowering here in the last week of August at 13:45 of daylight. They've been under a roof since it started raining but humidity is very high with fog and dew in the mornings. The only mold I've had is where there were caterpillars.

Thanks Squatty! I grew PCK at lattitude 43 and it performed well. Climate was quite dry.

Hi guys, here are my little PCKs.

So i has almost been 3 weeks... How is it going!?

We're on vacation until November 15th so they're in the hands of my sister until then. Which means not the best news for the plants I'll post pics when I get back

They are doing fine but not great. Quite slow to grow which is not a problem as I'm not in a hurry but there's a noticeable difference compared to hybrids ofc. There are some of them that look more vigorous but I assume those will be the males. A couple of runtz that I maybe will cull.

One thing that caught my attention when transplanting from 1 to 3 L, is how big the rootballs were for the small plant's size.

Nice of your sister to help out. Enjoy your vacation!

Thank you very much sir, you always have something nice to say

 

[El Timbo]

Good luck with them @El Timbo Don't expect big yields with a pure PCK winter grow, but sure the genetics will perform well under cold and rainy conditions, hopefully you can find some remarkable females to reveg later in spring for the main season.

Cheers! So far we've had a warm and sunny autumn so they have grown well over the past week...

Stunning results, Squatty! I wasn't sure what to expect from runts, but you did a phenomenal job with them! Now we want those smoke reports

 

[squatty]

Thank you Organic guy. I had to leave town on a trip and left the three largest ones whole in my garage. I think they will be fine as they dry slowly.

I have never seen drying flowers that looked anything like the largest one I had. Wonderful magenta red flowers. I've also never had growing plants smell as sweet and inviting as they did. Just lovely. I will surely let you know how they turn out. I am looking forward to smoking them someday soon!

 

[goingrey]

Interesting variegated mutant PCK.

Others from the pack are normal.

 

[dubi]

Seedlings are looking very healthy @El Timbo weather has been quite good until last weekend.
Consider to transplant them to bigger pots as soon as you find out the females to increase yields during the winter grow.

Glad to see you starting some PCK @goingrey although PCK is heavily inbred, mutants are more rare to find since last 2 reproductions. Good luck with yours!

Yeah been meaning to grow it for years and years but never got around to it until now.

This is a 5-pack of standard seeds dated May 2020. Hoping to get a nice male to make some cold and mold resistant outdoor crosses for next year and beyond. But well with a five pack you get what you get. Fingers crossed.

Cheers dubi - I've already repotted them, I don't like leaving it too long and I might repot the females again when the time comes. I'm hoping to make seeds and some Bangi Haze x PCK

Came back from vacation yesterday, @Mitsuharu sorry I kept you waiting freund. My little PCKs are slow growers as expected but they look pretty happy overall. There are some clones from other strains in the left tray as well, waiting to be pollinated.

Most of them showed sex, I will flip them in 2 weeks I think.

 

[El Timbo]

Looking good! How old are they?

 

[revegeta666]

Looking good! How old are they?

Around 7 weeks. I am not really keeping track because I knew they would be slow growers and I'm not always the most patient person lol
Edit - I looked it up, they are on day 43 so 6 full weeks

 

[Mitsuharu]

Looks like the soil is a bit mineral heavy!?

What is your plan with the PCKs now? You said you wanna make seeds?

Most of them showed sex

So how many males/females you got?

The soil is biobizz light mix. It has no food and I don't use mineral nutrients. Maybe you say that because the LEDs are off?

I will cross the males to the Maple Leaf, Nepal Jam and Bangi Haze clones I keep. Otherwise the plan is to smoke them I guess As every grow I will save a clone of each to see if there's anything worth keeping. If there's a specially pretty one I will give that one to my mom for christmas. Cheap present lol

Males/female ratio is around 50/50.
