Grow is looking really good! What did you think of the Thai you grew, have you tried it yet?
Thanks for looking at my Durban poison grow @gedLang. I think I harvested my Thai too soon. One hundred twenty-eight days were not quite enough, but my DP ladies couldn't wait any longer. The sample I tried was VERY disappointing.

Plant #'s 1, 2 and 5 appear to be one pheno type. They are more robust, growing faster and taller with longer internodes, bigger colas and thicker branches. The second pheno type is displayed in plants 3 & 4. They are more compact with shorter internodes and more lateral branching. The colas are smaller and have more trichomes. I am still unable to identify the smell on these DP ladies, but it is stronger and slightly different than the more robust pheno. I have 2 clones going on each of the seedlings. I doubt I'll get a keeper but it's good practice for me!

My Durban Poison (F) were white label seeds from ILGM. I couldn't find any reputable breeders that carried DPs. Do you know of any? Where did you get your seeds from?

I am quite excited about this run! It's turning out pretty good if I do say so myself...

Time for an update. My Durban Poison ladies are at 49 days of 11/13 lighting. That's 7 weeks. They are really starting to put on weight. I had to stake up and tie up six or seven colas that were starting to lean on their neighbors.

The smell is getting stronger. It's kind of an off citrus smell. Maybe kumquat? Earthy tones. Still hard for me to place...

Trichomes are getting denser.

I've never had a strain that grows such big fan leaves on the colas. I try to keep the offenders stripped off so they don't shade the shorter buds. There are still plenty of leaves down lower to act as solar cells.



2 or 3 more weeks, I'm guessing. Any thoughts of their finishing time?
