I’m running a couple VB crosses. Not snowhigh and all sourced from OG. If you’re interested.
interesting project ! in week 3 of flower of Purple OG Ghost Piss x Vietnamese black, just wondering a flower time for this strain ? Understand that Ghost Piss OG is hard to grow with small yields. But Vietnamese Black is a pure sativa strain so I’m figuring a 65-70 day for Ghost Piss and 98- 105 (+) for Viet Black, this plant/seed seems to be indica dominate and is only 16inches tall (SCROG reason for height of 16 inches) maybe ? 90 days ( Know there are many factors in flower time) interesting this plant has 3 leaf true sets of leaves - never seen that instead of 2 true leaves one get 3 true leaf set !! - is this common for Vietnamese Black? will be watching the “Black” show
Nope they are still alive and well however the freeman farmer test kits turned out to be all males. So I got few clones from a buddy, and have gotten an incredible amount of help from a fella on instagram on how to breed so I’ll be taking pollen from the male VB’s and pollinate chemxgg4 and mimosa with it. So a whole change of plans for this grow. However I’ll still keep the Viet Black alive by breeding it with the clones I got. Here’s a few updated pics. I’ll get more pics in as time progresses and the clones get bigger. These pictures are picture of the clones I’ve just transplanted into the pot on Thursday the 12th. the right, is Chem x GG4. The left is Mimosa
Sorry for the late uploads, I was beaten after finding out the plants were males and needed to find a solution. I’m happy I found a buddy on insta whose guiding me through the process of breeding so I can still keep the VB line going.
Sorry about the poor ratio. Doesn’t sound like a bad outcome. Could be a wicked cross.
Ugh it’s so defeating man… but it is what it is. I have 2 more SnowHigh seeds of the same strain so after this run, I’ll pop those beans and see if I get a female. If not, I’ll cross it again lol but the fella on insta said that he’s spent a lot of money hunting for Colombian gold fems from him and all males. So I guess it’s part of the game. You win 1 and lose many lol
Project Viet Black
Left to right:
(LEFT) African Kush x Neville’s lemon Diesel (3) & Neville’s Lemon Diesel F2 (3)
(MIDDLE) Mimosa (bottom) ChemxGG4 (top)
(RIGHT) Vietnam Black males (3)
The goal is to collect VBs pollen to seed the rest of the female plants in the cultivar. I’ll be using the isolated branch technique when pollinating to maintain bud structure at the top while keeping 1 lower popcorn branch on each female to use as a home for VBs pollen, essentially seeding only 1 branch from each plant.
In the end, I’ll essentially have crosses of:
Viet Black x Mimosa
Viet Black x ChemxGG4
Viet Black x NLD (Neville’s Lemon diesel)
Viet Black x African kush x NLD.
I have been calling this run in this cultivar, Project Viet Black. Timing is going to be crucial on this run but I’m thankful to my buddy for guiding me on what to do with the male VBs. He had me flip them asap as soon as I got the DNA test results back and found out the VBs were all males.
@trulyamazinggenetics thanks again man for helping me through this and not only by giving me lifesaving tips and advise on growing and breeding but also going out of your way to provide me seeds from your very own collection. A true #legend
