BB G-Bomb - Big Buddha Seeds - International Cannagraphic Magazine Forums

ewan uzami · 09-30-2009, 01:19 AM

Hi all,
been searching the net for info on BB G-Bomb and sadly not having much luck... really i'm looking for a guide on the amount of stretch to expect... i've found two reports which directly contradict eachother and was looking for a casting vote. i'm growing in a 160cm tent so height is a consideration.
so far (day 7) evrything looks good... 90% germination, and i think the one which didn't make it was actually down to my error, so no complaints there, and i have nine lovely healthy seedlings which are starting to show roots at the base of the pot so all good there too... however, i really do want to squeeze every inch of space out of my tent whilst obviously avoiding the roof... i can't see they're going to go mad but if anyone has grow them (or if you're lurking in the shadows there BB...) then i'd really appreciate the help.
i've started a spreadsheet to record heights and i'll post the results so one way or the other i'll have the answer, my gut reaction is to grow them to about 1/2 of the available space between soil and light and if all else fails i'll do that and cross my fingers.
i'm looking foward to growing this strain as when i mentioned the sort of smoke i like to my seed guy, he was like, "this one... no question"... okay it's thrown all my plans to shit, but what the hell...
take care everyone...

Hi there, I just cut some G-Bomb. It was my 1st grow so don't put to much into what I say. Just thought I might be able to help out some. I grew 3. All at the same time in the same conditions. 2 of which I topped and they grew to about 8-9 inches taller then the one that wasn't topped. The 2 topped ones didn't really stretch much height wise but width wise it exploded. The one I didn't top stretched about 3-4 inches taller with very little side growth. So to sum it all up the topped ones about doubled in size and the one I didn't top only grew another 3-4 inches.

I'm still very much a rookie and hope I could help a little bit. I have some pictures. Their from very late into flowering as I just got a camera but I can post them if you like and think it might help.

Have a nice day.

gbomb is great! check out my album. That and cheese, big resin producers. not a real stretcher. good yielder. I either top or supercrop it. highly recommended. Here they are 2 in a 1 gal pot. day 58

getting there...

Those girls have not been topped.
They might stretch a bit.
I top and then prune off the lowest in veg.
Then I leave it alone.
