Sorry to hear it wasn’t the greatest Do you think it doesn’t like long periods of cold wet conditions or any ? I do think it’s been “above average” for rain so may not be so bad when it’s an average season. Remember though, I told ya you could harvest right around 40 days. Did you let it go longer as I was thinking mid Sept at the latest. The sweet is like Bubblegum of B but A definitely doesn’t have sweet, should be more minty spice, but I’ve said many times going by odor isn’t how the flavor tastes, especially B. Probably needs more curing but it should get better later. Glad to hear it good for the physical pains though.
Hmmmm perhaps it’s the B that should be scrapped, seems like more problems than A has turned out to be, however the BX may turn it towards the A side.
I think if it was last year it would have been soooo much better. My area has been cold and really wet. In a 6 week period we had 8 inches of rain over normal this year.
I also wanted to see how far I could push it.
My sense of smell is not great, but I got sweet on both a and b.
I like em all, I’m gonna smoke em all.
Well, we can see if the BX for B holds up better for next year Yeah I know, the weather patterns are extreme to say the least…
It’s a trip trying to get outdoor genetics for regions after so much time indoors. I think we lost so many outdoor genetics when we all went inside unfortunately
Exactly! The majority of genetics bred are acclimated indoors.
It’s been fun trying to take all these indoor clones outside and seeing how they preform
Yeah I’m starting to see which is more preferred, that’s part of this test. Determining which is more favorable, thus why A BX2 is being crossed broadly. I believe A is the path to follow, especially turning the B towards more TC/Xmas pheno from PTK expression.
Looking fantastic, nice coat of frosting, the trics are standing tall.
Just found this at HTG. Yup you guessed it, and I’m ON IT!
Here are the two biggest colas of CripX A. Really great yield. I did have to throw away about 3/4 of an ounce because of bud rot. They were just so damn dense, I love it! I be they would grow so much better indoors getting blasted with my 6 fans. I may have to try that this winter. I can keep that room warm but cannot seem to keep it very cool in the summer as temps reach lower 90’s in there even with my portable ac right inside the same room.
I gave them a rush trim just to take a quick picture. I did clean them up better before tossing them into jars.
Haha awesome! Hope it works as I know a few strains I’d love to try it on!
@HumblePie420 nicely done! I agree , probably way more girth and density inside if done right with full light etc.
@TopShelfTrees1 I’ll definitely tell ya if it’s worth it or not to bother. Needed Liquid Karma anyway, so 20 buck trial to get free shipping
Really NICE size. That’s exactly like A2 gave me. Well we know size is far better Glad that made results better
How’s the Maui going ? I’m so curious if it’s giving off the odor I’m getting
This is what I’m disappointed about, the level of resistances shown, however I believe I may have the solution, IC, why ? The Corn has Frisian inbred and now has Maui too, and soon we get to see IC in the CX A. So my hunch of introducing tropical lineage of a pheno male A could help boost the resistances to the next generation in the line. I’ll need to see what shows, but I’d like to have this ready for the start of next season to test run outside, but it’s clear CX B is only suited for indoors/greenhouse at this point due to dense foliage growth and dense bud. It sounds like by consensus A did better at fairing above average wet conditions overall, but still needs higher resistance worked in due to density to flower uninhibited in the open outdoors. The BX doesn’t have as dense foliage of either so the spacing combined with Hawaiian lineage of IC could be the ticket. Unfortunately, I can’t know anything since I don’t have humid conditions, so I’m only theorizing until it’s grown out.
Now what I’m about to show is the evolution from TC to CX A2, and it’s clear how it’s improved and will continue to.
Btw since everything is closer to being done I’m holding on sending, but when I do, expect a literal seed box. The next run won’t be so much of a ‘test’ per se, but more rather a ‘grow and show’ - though I won’t be requiring everyone to show if they’re unable to. I want to reach a consensus from the 5 to see how they will rank, and what ends being most preferred at the end.
Week 5
TC
CX A (f3)
CX A2 (f4)
Maui A
This one is unquestionably pine odor. I think this may be a surprise with the BX2
Added old mom of TC A and TC B
RKS
About 2 weeks
I did have to uproot again and bury deeper at the bottom. This usually indicates legginess. We’ll see. I’m happy as long as they are sturdy and upright
The 3 IC x BX2
Considering what I just wrote about these, seems like this will be the next phase IF it proves higher resistance
A2 just about ready but not until I’m done with the last BX2 male.
Last male, definitely not as dense growing looking at it so hopefully that helps open it up
So my cripXmas A reveg outside is getting there. Between 7-8 wks so I know they are gonna be done quick looking good!
Super frosty! Nice
FAF id say.
Damn straight bro
Yeah, I’d definitely say revegg for cuts, it’s a keeper. That’s exactly how A finishes. I can get you more seed, but can’t replace THAT particular plant. It’s possible something better emerges out of the BX2 crossings but for now hold on
