Nice choice of gear, Icon. I just popped some of S****ie's Jackberry (Blueberry x Jack Herer), and they're about the same age. What are you going to flower under?

thanx guys this is my first grow with this strain. they are very vigorous faster then i thought they would be.

Are you going to do a log on the jackberry?
I'll be flowering under a 400w hps with a cool hood in a 32" x 28" x 60" closet.
Im using a 6" duct fan from homedepot to cool the light.They will remain in coco & i'll use iguana juice bloom & revive. i plan on topping them if i only end up with 1 or 2 females i might scrog them.

ide like to pinch a log on my neighbors dog

I have 2 plants that are growing very fast & i topped them so that the other 2 could catch up. The 2 topped plants are filling out fast & look nice. I had a small problem with ph & it seem to only effect 1 of the slower growing plants.
But everything is now under controle. I also decided to switch to synthetic nutes sensi A & B grow ive been having a little bit of trouble using the iguana juice by keeping the ph steady. Iguana juice seems to be making the ph rapidly unstable overnight. In 3 weeks they will go into flower.

Just came to check your thread out, I looked alot into joey weed lately, they have some crazy crosses. Never smoked it either but what I read and see from your plants they must be some quality genetics. peace

The leaves look HYBRID but 2 have the vigour & stretch of a sativa & the other 2 are more compact like an indica.I topped the 2 that have more stretch. 1 of the more compact plants seem to be more sensitive to nutrients.
im now backing off the nutes from 1100 ppm to 950 ppm to be safe.
All of the leaves are about the same size & width. The first plant was topped about a week earlier then the other & they're all the same age.

faster growing 2




the more compact 2




this 1 being more nute sensitive

Good looking plants man. Keeping an eye on your log for sure. Also got 2 of these at about 35 days of 12/12 and they are more sativa dom and a little smaller yielding than jw's ak/99 and blue apollo but have much more trichs. If they smoke as good as they look they will be around for a while.

DARIPPA - Ide like to see some pics of those if you have some.

They still have good vigour & are bouncing back from the nute burn.
They're starting to get a light citrus smell to the leaves like orange peel.




I now know that 3 out of the 4 are females they are showing sex under 20 hours of light just like alot of landrace strains do.The calyxes are too small to take a pic of but i can see them under a small magnifying glass.
Here are the females the 1st one has alot of purpling on the stems






This one undetermined

they were about ready to be put into flowering but i wasnt ready yet so i topped the other 2. they are slow to grow but starting to pick up a bit.
the fastest bushiest plant was male & i pulled it. I took 2 clones 1 from the shortest compact plant (pic#3) & the other from the taller faster & a bit stretchy plant (pic#1). the first plant can take a high nute feed but the other 2 are alot more sensitive.Right now the 2 smaller ones are about 8" tall & the plant in pic#1 is 11". I'll probally put them into flower in about 2 weeks.
