Anyone experienced with Blue Cheese? - Big Buddha Seeds - International Cannagraphic Magazine Forums

Hello, I am currently growing some Blue Cheese from Barneys and this is my first time growing this strain. I'm trying to find a mom so I can have enough babies for 4x1000 HPS. I am about a month into my veg on 9 feminized seeds. I topped them all about a week ago and put them in my EZ Clone. Also took a couple bottoms so I can put in a few more while I'm waiting to finish my testing with the moms. They seem to mostly look pretty similar but a couple of them look a little bit more Sativa looking. I have my 9 plants in 8" net cups with hydroton on a 2'x4' ebb and flow tray but when they are big enough I will put them in DWC in 5 Gal buckets under 1000 HPS. If I only top them once total (at the top of the plant, and veg them to 18-20", what can I expect on yield per plant? Also how do they stretch?

No one huh? Oh well I'll take some pics in a few days and start a journal on it. Plants a hurting a little. I had a power outage for almost 3 days.

from what ive seen the blue cheese is not the biggest yielder.

also, its hard to estimate your yield per plant when we dont know what your female looks like. not every female produces the same amount

an example is... a cheese clone in a 11 litre soil pot might give you 2 oz dry. this is with 4 weeks veg

a different female of the cheese might give you 1 3/4 oz in the same conditions

then, put that same female clone in a different room and you might get less.

also, it depends on your clone. take a bigger clone and veg for the same amount of time, you might get more

Stretch is about 3x and i got 1 3/4 oz dry in soil with 5 gal pots. Dont remember how much veg time was involved

Just figured someone grew out some Barneys Blue cheese and should have a rough estimate but I know what you mean. That seems like a lot of stretch. Makes me think about putting them in flower at 16 inch's or so. This has to be better than this Shiva Skunk I have now. Yields are straight trash. I was growing Shiva around 10 years but had the same mom and lost her. Went to amsterdam to get more and I guess Sensi went to shit. The NL main cola pheno is barely there. The smoke and look is alright but just no weight. I used to get 1000 g/w pretty easily back then and now i'm like if I get .5. I'm thinking there's no way this Blue cheese can be worse then what I have. I wish I could take bigger clones but i need too many so I have to make them smaller. Looking at other people DWC's on here they get almost pound plants. I'll probably play in safe and pack 80 small plants on 4x8 ebb and flow and put 32 bigger plants in DWC and see which results are better. Thanks for the help!

Im growin some Big Buddha Blue Cheese Bro. Its about 5 weeks into bloom now. Its not a heavy producer, but, the odor is very special. Im growing 13 or 14 differents varieties of kush and top quality stuff, and BlueCheese (by BB) has one of the best aromas. It also has a good ammount of trichome production as well. I probably have a pic here somewhere.

I grow Blue Cheese myself. I agree the yeild is not huge but it's not bad with the right pheno. Dr. P. is right on. The aroma is top notch and trichs galore. Although the scent does not usually transend into the flavor all that well, it's still a great strain. Here's a few pics..........

Grown it a few times. I agree 100%, scent is very strong, cheesy+skunky odor. The stretch was about 2x-3x imo. If you like smelly stuff, this is def the right strain.

Also the high from this strain lasts at least 45 minutes for me (i smoke ED), and is a definite "eye lid dropper" strain hehe.
