It vegs faster than the purple kush and stretches more .. I have only seen one pheno of it going around and it's all over the Island. I got some pics if that would help. It usually get's passed as purple kush..
Reef claims to have originated it but who knows...

I havent grown it, but smoked lots and made lots of bubble from it. Personally I wouldnt waste my time on it if potency is important. It has a very very mild high to it, although the taste is incredible when done right. Dont know which cut is local to you, but the original one is supposedly a sister to the King cut from back in the 80's. Its a high yielder when grown right, and will yellow out when rootbound. The only grower who I have seen keep the leaves from yellowing had them in beds.

Yup .. just makes me physically tired and burnt out, the tolerance build up is super fast with this one. I notice with almost all the kush strains I have tried the stone is extremely short lived ... maybe an hour or less. The yellowing out is very true as well.. even in hydro the plants have lot's of dead leaf at the end.

does anyone have a flower time with this strain? 10-11 weeks sound about right?
do the flowers themselves tend to show colours or does pink refer more to the pistills. on a side note im getting pink / reddish stems not sure if its some sort of deficiency or issue, they are healthy otherwise, does the pink in the name refer to the stem color as well?
thx all

You can take it at 9 weeks for the best taste, but 11 weeks gives it the best buzz, and it isnt that much different in taste then the 9 week, maybe abit less floral and abit more musky if i remember right. the pink comes from the pistils!!!!

Oh Man! We had this one years back, got the pack from RM seeds. Shit was outrageous! Great weed for sure! Have fun!
I'm not in your neck of the woods so I'm sorry I can't offer much advise on your cut. The phenos we had all were taken in the 75-77 day range, the structure was a lot like diesel. Pistils were super pink! Really cool looking weed! This was maybe 5 years ago? Trying to remember....kinda wish I still had this one!

Yup the pink is the pistils .. a friend has a few of these I gave her on her porch that are still going .. moving them inside at night/rain. I will take a picture of one next time... I think 9 weeks is good for this one.

I am very interested in seeing these pics. If you do get a diary up and running please post a link within this thread.
I really would love to see pics of this stadium build. Are you doing a northern farmer style layout or you gonna veg them for a while?
So how do you feel about the pink kush thus far? Does she grow decent in veg or is she slow?

i will post em up or at least pm them to you if i dont make a thread.
my stadium is built to NFR's specs with some modifications for length. it has more watts per sq ft than his, kind of by accident, was trying to save money on buying the wood and had a brain fart and got 8 foot 2x4s instead of 10 ft'rs but no big deal. i built it 8 feet long vs his 10 ft and went with 3 shelves per side (3 gal pots) for now to keep numbers down. will be doing 5 shelves when i add another license to the room to stay in plant counts. since the stadium is 2 ft shorter the lights are placed closer together (18" vs his 20" apart) so there is massive light overlap. running co2 @ 1200 ppm currently. vegging in the stadium. cant fit as many plants in there as he does but with the co2 in the sealed room i think ill do ok.
the pink kush, i have been underfeeding it for awhile , trying to catch up to it , first run in awhile and still working out kinks. it seems like a heavy feeder . got about 1 week left before i go into flower and they are needing at least 1000ppm. plan to hit 1500-1600 ppm in peak flower. been alot of kinks working out the room and dialing in the strain but im pretty confident for next run to hit everything 100%. i logged the optimal root zone ppms since week 1 so if you get the cut pm me and ill send u some helpful info as far as feeding. im way behind in veg because i underfed. i think ill be able to cut down veg time by at 50% next run.

Good luck man. The only person I have seen get it to stay green later on, Lungus, put a layer of cow manure on the bottom of his pots. It was the only way he found to keep them from yellowing out so much if I remember right. Maybe he will drop in and clear it up if hes around.

They can take 1800ppm and love it
