Hey Dr. P, Don't see many grows listed for your strains. So help me decide. Picked up Heavy D and Illuminati during christmas and got the black diesel freebie.

So Doc which one would you like to see first or a mix?? You decide and I will pop some seeds. OG

Hey oldergrower
Glad to hear you scored some kiLLer new gear...thanks for the support! I hope you enjoy running the new lines and best of luck poppin' the Black Diesel freebies (give em a good scuff/soak!)! I have found some incredibly beautiful plants in those BD's! I am really enjoying the Illuminati's right now and would love to see someone rock them on here. Sh!t...a mix would be cool too! To be honest I will be happy to see any of my gear grown out, so do whatever will make you happy my friend! You should be happy w/ which-ever route you decide to take! Keep us posted on the grow and feel free to drop in w/ any questions, comments, of concerns. Keep it Killer!

Well Dr. P seems you are partial to Illuminati and Black Diesel, huh.

I love diesel also and the illuminati sounds killer so lets get to poppin some seeds. Will take awhile because I grow hydro and always from clones.
I prefer to get a little maturity before cloning. Just seems like I get better plants.

Dr. P how is the stretch on these 2 strains? I assume the BD are reg seeds so will take longer to sex, so the Illuminati will probably go first hopefully
with my wifi tester phenos next run near the end of April.

Cool beanz oldgrower!
To be honest, it really depends what you're looking for as far as the strains. A classic Diesel, Kush, or an exotic Purple Diesel? Both the Illuminati and Heavy D can kick some serious ass! I just harvested a bunch of the Illuminati and really liked the way they turned out...kiLLer tasty smoke...so they were fresh on my mind. Believe me, the Heavy D aint no joke! The Illuminati grows like a Kush, however the CJ makes her branch out more, yield better, bring thru some of sativa influence from the Thai, and adds a bit more Diesel to the taste/flavor. The Heavy D is gonna grow more like your typical Diesel, should yield the best out of the 3...with support of course and will stretch the most. The Black Diesel may not be the strongest of the 3, but her sheer beauty and exotic taste/aroma make her a very interesting plant to grow. If you can get them poppin, you can expect some run-way model plants...absolutely beautiful!! The Heavy D will be an excellent back-up plan if you have any problems poppin' em! The Black Diesel does not stretch that much, she stays short and squat and may not even double in height during flower. The Illuminati will stretch a bit more to about double her size and the Heavy D will stretch about 2-2.5 times after flip. Best of luck w/ the gear and definitely keep us posted! Glad to see you already cracked the Killer! Great things to come my friend...

Well after a scuff, the 24 hour soak, then in paper towel for 24 hours the 5 Illuminati beans have sprouted and went in 16 oz cups.
Off to a good start.

[DrPoison]

Not bad at all OG! Keep the updates coming! Killer on the rise!

[oldergrower]

5 of 5 Illuminati broke soil and growing. Still no cracking of the black diesel seeds (yet).

[oldergrower]

Well I have 5 healthy Illuminati seedlings coming along, but did not
have any luck with the BD seeds. All 5 of them sank in the soak phase but none cracked in the paper towel.

The illuminati seedlings look healthy and happy.

How we doing OG? Really interested to hear about your progress w/ the Illuminati! These girls are guaranteed bell ringers for sure! Just loved the cured up tight kushy nugs I got from these gals! Sorry been out of the loop a bit, but we're BACK!!

[oldergrower]

Doc, girls have been topped and vegging. They will have to wait for fall run have another run about to start and I hate running inmature plants I like to see what a grownup has to give up but they look killer. Super strong stems and branches. Og
