@Mattman did you flip that katsu yet? Wanted to see how it was looking if you flipped her. Thnx

I did actually, she’s only 3-4 days officially into flower so no big changes yet but I’ll take a picture for ya.
Not much lateral growth yet, these Katsu pre-98 veg pretty slow. The switch to flower and the settle into the 5gal will help and its stretch and growth will eventually explode. I will continue to post pics and updates if anyone is interested. Thanks for asking about it, I love to share pictures and information.

Looking pretty good man. Really any old indica line is going to be slow everywhere 
. Yours looks like a descent size though. I like the flat top on her. Did you leave it single cola? That should help it from slowing down even more. Ive learned that the hard way.

Hey thanks man!! Yes I did leave it untopped, I’m kind of old school and don’t top my plants anymore. There is nothing wrong with doing that by the way, it’s just not my thing anymore. I usually clean up the bottoms for clones and might take a leaf off here and there as we get moving along but I prefer to just let them do there thing and express themselves without much intervention from me other than water, microbes, dry amendments and love.

Sounds like you got the right idea, less is more with growing mj. Funny you mention that i was all about products, training etc when i first started. Now nothing lol but soil and cal mag.

I hear you man, I think we are all guilty of “loving” our plants to much at one point or another in our journeys of cultivation. I agree with you in less is more, at least for me it works out in soil. Plus these little bubbas are so easy going and seemingly grow themselves without needing much. The added benefit of having incredible flower is also why it’s always been a favorite mine, love me some Bubba Kush.

WWWWwwwwwwwwow. Such a fun read. Lotsa cobwebs! I’ma chime in with the rumors and innuendos I’ve heard along the way…LOL
I remember on OG back in the day/turn of the century when folks were talking about this cut. It was very elusive and held tight. I can’t remember how it all played out or who had it “first”. Ahhhh…pot lore, myth, and legend. Right up there with the “Chemdog” tales…heehhee. Either way…the name 3c’s comes to mind early on. Classic Clone Company er somethin like that.
But my first real recollection of it hitting the general public was via the S-1 release by Organkid here on OG1.0. I believe he released the BK along with “Oger’s Kush” and something else. Anyone remember? Evidently, he and Katsu bought cuts (?) for like 5K er some such number. Maybe the first to ever get it from the original source? Yeah…foggy…and farther back/ more deep in the matrix than I ever was. I seem to remember Katsu then gave out cuts and between the OK S-1 release and the gifting it slowly started to circulate. I was on an invite-only clone trading forum just after OG closed down and got to grow a few cuts…pre-98…green cut…Katsu…ooopsss…gettin foggy again…
FWIW, I do not remember Swerve in the mix early on at all. I don’t remember much about him before the whole hermie thing with the SFV3 or 4 or whatever it was when he had to replace all of those packs to save face/not get shot/laughed off the boards. Oh…and the dick pic. 
Ok…on that note///that’s probably enough ancient history from here… 
fun times though. Glad to see folks still interested/rockin this cultivar.
be safe out there

Anybody have any experience with Peyote Purple. Growing or smoking or whatever. Is it like bubba? Btter or worse? That type stuff.

One of my favorites. Really good for the head and the body, but not particularly strong. I struggle to describe the smell but it’s quite pleasant and unique amongst anything I’ve grown in the last 15 years. I kept an S1 of the mom I lost earlier this year that’s stronger and even more terpy, but it’s less purple. Definitely head stash!

I have experience growing it. I grew it a decade ago. I had a few packs from Cannabiogen. They were the best plants I have ever growing in my entire life. That strain is the one that got away for me. I still think about it all the time. Super easy to grow very dark leaves the Phenos I got had crazy smells like shampoo, chocolate, mocha and hash, it was unreal. I have been searching for that strain ever since, over a decade now. It wasn’t the most potent, but it was so incredibly Awesome tasting and the high was absolutely divine, pure headstash. It was also some of the frostiest plants I have ever grown to date. I am truly envious of you if you hold it, it’s my favorite of all time hands down, legendary at least in my opinion.

If I remember right to about peyote purple, with the packs I had it was super rare to get a Male but I guess it could happen I never got one.

I kept it for 9 years, and it was a nice ride. The S1 I created and still hold is better in every way except purpleness She scratches the Peyote Purple itch nicely.
Your description of her is

@Cannavore has the whole backstory in one of his threads and it’s a wild ride. I’ve heard of males, but never have seen one. I am skeptical

What ive been posting
You say you still have S ones of her? Would you be up for a trade? If so, shoot me a DM I have some pretty good breeder packs. I am at work right now and can’t get caught on my phone but I can message you back later on around 730 West Coast time. I have checked out that counterfeit kush of his but have never pulled the trigger.
