SR71 Strainguide and Clones

[purrpullkush]

PK is a slow grower, medium to low yielder. But the quality of buds when grown right is like Grape Koolaid flavor, and the great OG kush high we all love. One of my favorites, and something i keep for personal stash when possible. ALthough any good KUSH will do for me

The PK from SR71 is NOT a kush, and contains no kush genes... While SR71 likes to refer to this cut as "Purple Kush" it is actually a strain called Ultraviolet that they acquired from K at trichome technologies. Most people agree that this is glorified urkle. Good trees, horribly slow veg, pretty bad yield. I'd be more inclined to grow GDP myself. Just my $.02

NOT KUSH?
Wow, the pictures actually do look like an Urkle cross.​

No kidding, Karmical. Instead of acting all cool, how about providing some actual useful information.

Blue Sky only comes on this board when it serves THEIR purpose. They don't come on here for the benefit of Bay Area clone people.

Great genetics, but a phony and self-serving attitude.

acting all cool, really don't know what you mean there.

what i post, and what i simply take to private pms with whoever, is my business as a patient.

i do not use this or any thread pump up or promote bluesky, as some have done in other thread about whatever it is they are trying to get going.

those that know me simply drop in and get the 411, i'm a pretty easy guy to get at, no attitude whatsoever.

there's just no pleasing everyone, so i don't even try to anymore... i just stick to doing what it is i do, which seems to be working for most everyone

 

[srk]

so any info on the new clones yet? By the way can blue sky start giving out clones as healthy as they were last year. Two visits in the last month, first person in one of those times and they are scrawny, barely rooted (if rooted) and leggy. But when I complained they gave me atleast 10 extra ones. Which was a fair trade off. I really need info on these new clones. thanks.

Just a rumor about the SR71 PK thats been floating around since they got it. No one with reliable info has said what it really is or isn't. I have grown out Ultraviolet(?) and it is decent! Like growing Purplestar or some other bland purple line from the Dutch seed companies. I have a hard time buying that it isn't a real Kush when my friends up north swear it is Urkle x OG Kush or the actual Purple Kush they grow. Similar structure and growth patterns, and rock hard nugs when compared side by side. Ultraviolet doesn't come close. Just my .02

 

[meduser180056]

I doubt there is any OGkush in it. The unmistakable og flavor isn't there. It's a classic purple IMO like granddaddy or urkle. Very closely related.

 

[Rainman]

GDP is Urkle crossed to Salmon Creek Big Bud so they are basically the same plant. The Big Bud added more weight,faster times, and that unmistakable stink that GDP offers. You are always going to have traits that are recessive and dominant in any cross so to base your thoughts on flavor alone doesn't cover all or even most of the traits one plant can pass to another. The structure of the PK is classic Kush in my eyes. Whether or not OG or a similar Kush was used in the cross is anyone's guess in my opinion.

And you know this for sure? And i never said it has OG kush in it. Im sure there is some sort of kush in the linage.

 

[zoolander]

I'll post up early flower pix of the PK tonight and I think you may change your mind about the yield and in coco its veg is as fast as my others .

 

[meduser180056]

Well I'm also basing my opinion on it's growth pattern and how it makes me feel after i smoke it. The og kush flavor is just so unmistakable that u can usually tell if it's in the genes. It doesn't grow like OG either. OG is a stretchy strain. Not a short squat indica. There may be some so cal kush genes in there I could be wrong. But it grows, tastes, and feels nothing like it IMO.

 

[clark420]

Coming from the owner of sr-71, in the wheel chair. He said it is an Elite Pakistani Purple Kush Clone. Im prolly thinkiing from the Afgan/pakistani Mountains

 

[purrpullkush]

elite pakistani purple kush clone? yeah right... Richard is full of shit for the record. I didn't just come up with this theory out of nowhere...There is no question, the Purple Kush from SR-71 is in fact Ultraviolet, from K at trichome tech, this has been confirmed with atleast 4 different people that work at the nursery. I had these genes before scrappy had his grow class, its been a couple years now. If you grew out some ultraviolet that sucked, you didn't get a good cut/seed, it's hands down one of the nicest purple strains around. You think GDP gets its unmistakeable stink from salmon creek big bud???....Umm it should be obvious to anyone that knows anything about cali purple strains that you don't know much....Posting alot of times, doesn't make you an expert...experience and knowledge do. You said the structure of PK is classic kush in your eyes....WTF, you couldn't be MORE wrong....there is NOTHING similar about their structure...OG kush is stretchy as hell, grows like a vine, PK is short stout and takes forever to veg. They don't look or smell even remotely similar. And no, there isn't any kush in the lineage of PK, OG or AK or HK or anything like that...it is a MISNOMER, they just called it Purple Kush to differentiate it. Its called marketing. Anyone who knows what REAL OG Kush is, wouldn't even suggest that PK has got anything to do with it. I tried to come on this thread and provide some useful information and im met with denial and skepticism from people who have NO ACTUAL INFORMATION. I've been in Oaksterdam for ten years....I pay attention, and I know alot of people. Seriously disturbing how people are willing to defend the lineage of a strain based on the name a club gives it.... I have a lot more to say but I fear it will fall on deaf ears and be a waste of my time...I was really trying to be helpful to others who might be interested in this strains history, not bashing the strain or any person for not being knowledgeable, but it is hard not to get frustrated when people who CLEARLY don't know what they are talking about go out of their way to spit bullshit allover the thread. ok...I give up for now.

interesting about the coco, I'd love to see it...scrappy was always saying that if you run this strain in straight coco using only advanced sensi 2 part, no additives, you can get great results....I only ever ran it in soil so I can't say, but I think the biggest shortcoming of this strain is the veg time so it would be great to find out that in coco its faster.

 

[zoolander]

Yeah the coco seems to work well , I'll take pix of the clones in a few so you can see how quick they are moving . I'm gonna clone the clones soon and remother 1 or 2

 

[zoolander]

Heres my SR71 PK around 25 days or so and looks like it will yield pretty good

 

[meduser180056]

Yah the main thing about that PK that makes it a pain in the butt is the slow veg time and the lack of significant stretch. Also the fact that it needs 10 weeks to fully purple up.

 

[ReeferDan]

zoolander, that PK looks proper! She should yield well for ya! Keep the pics coming, you know we love pics here at icmag!!

kush

kush

By the way OG kush is a tall plant and doesnt have any kush characteristics. And the profile of the PK plants does look like a kush indicva profile. If you look up hindu kush on the internet it will tell you its from tyhe hindu mountains similar to a afgani.

[zoolander]

I have doubts about OG being a kush but thats just me

i'm not really a believer on any particular origin theory of the OG Kush, but i don't think you have too look too far into widely available Hindu Kush genetics (sensi's HK, countless Master Kushes) to find that they're fairly similar in structure to the OG. Hindu Kush is generally a lankier plant than most indicas with very sparse flowering sites, especially in comparison to an Afghan (which as we all know is more of a short, dense bush).

now, someone get this thread back on topic...
