DocLeaf said:We've grown and cloned seed from all these breeders! (from breeder packs sent to our crew by Scott and Ingemar and samples from Franco. WW from both the latter.) There's not much between them.
The purpose here isn't to discredit any of them over any other. The purpose is to find out the truth! Here we want to know if the Lemon Skunk currently marketed by GHSco comes from the stable of Ingemar and his line of Lemon.
This is nothing to do with Shantibaba. Although, feel free to drop us a link to the thread he quotes DocLeaf on and we will reproach him in person.
What you have to understand is that I n I nah give a fuck about all the carry-on palaver behind seedbank conspiracies, that's bullshit; And that we can be far ruder and mischievous than this if called upon. :wink:
Mind out before you find out who your speaking to!
Erb, Roots, n Culture,
Peace out

franco.gh said:GREEN HOUSE LEMON SKUNK So, now that it is on the catalogue and many growers are busy with it, let’s have a closer look to another new strain from Green House catalogue: Lemon Skunk.
The Lemon Skunk is a new plant with a very old pedigree, going back to the early 1990s. Back then, when it was called Citral, it was a true hit for a long time. Citral has been one of the most successful Skunk-type strains in Holland, mainly because it includes all the winning characteristics of a real Skunk combined with a fresh, lemon-like flavour and a higher production per plant. The pedigree of the Lemon Skunk is a bit of a mystery; what is sure is its Skunk parentage, which guarantees stability and very reliable results. Arjan acquired the original clone a long time ago, and until now there has been no time to develop it into a feminized strain. But while working on the Cheese and Trainwreck, we decided the time had come to bring back an old famous Amsterdam strain as well. We looked for the best mother and made R1 feminized seeds.:

Dalaihempy said:do you even have a clue what white lines there was apart from the white widow / white rhino / white shark ? no you dnt do you.
Dalaihempy said:Trueth is and has been in front of every one for years its easy to work out Doc can arjan / Inigma ? or franco name the plants used im betting no but can shanti im betting yes.
Who won the cup with the widow Shantibaba did not Inigma or franco fact.
Try a little research something you seam to fall short on.
Funny how franco failed to say that the Lemon Skunk / also called called Citral in erly 90s won the Bio Cup in 94.

Stop talking shit Doc like you had any part in breeding the widow or know the facts.
Genetics for this strain come from the Hindu Kush mountain region near the village district of Chitral. Citral produces a mellow herbal taste, very good yield and hard buds. For larger yeilds, grow relatively tall before changing the photo period. The aroma from the buds is fresh, almost like fabric softener. The buzz is an interesting cerebral experience despite its indica heritage.

The Lemon Skunk is a very rewarding plant for the grower. It has a typical long bud shape and a very uniform growth pattern. Compared to the original Skunk it has a somewhat stretchy internodal distance and a heavier mass, due mostly to the higher calyx-to-leaf ratio and the larger trichomes.
The leaves are similar to the pure Skunk, with non-overlapping leaflets and a dark green colour. This is a plant that presents the grower with an array of options, very flexible to different logistics; it performs well in all types of medium, with a higher production in hydro systems and a richer terpens composition when grown in organic soil. The flexible versatile nature of this plant allows the grower to decide the plant shape solely based on the needs and requirements of the growroom. It performs very well producing huge main colas, but topping offers interesting split possibilities and can help reducing the total height of the finished plant. When left to its natural growth pattern, this strain tends to stretch the lower branches to form a very bushy shape, with long banana-like colas. The buds are extremely hairy, with thick, straight, pointy clusters of hair giving an all-white look during flowering. The flowering time on this strain is between 8 and 9 weeks, with a tendency to boost resin production in the last week. Even if it is commercially ready after just 7-8 weeks, the 9th week will add magic and charm.
Because of the rapid metabolism, the Lemon Skunk can take high EC levels (up to 2.4 EC in hydro systems, at peak of flowering) but it also requires good flushing to make sure the unique lemon-like flavour is not overpowered by fertilizer residues. Growing this plant is a real pleasure, because it behaves like a regular skunk but it delivers so much more!
The effect is very fast and long lasting, the kind I define as a “messy” high; it hits fast and strong, evolving in a very complex mind-to-body type of effect. It is both stoned and high, going in waves and coming up strong again after each puff of the joint.
The flavour is definitely lemon-lime, with a skunky background and a strong spicy aftertaste. It is a chewable type of taste, one that stays in your mouth long after the joint stopped burning.
soon some nice pics.....
Stop talking shit Doc like you had any part in breeding the widow or know the facts.
Ganja Pasha said:BTW, Docleaf, are you coming to the icmag cup? Wanna see if you kiss upto Arjan and franco in real life like you do online, fanboy....
DocLeaf said:Hi Franco.
Please can you explain the correlation between Lemon Skunk and Chitral?
This dvd has confused us:
http://video.google.com/videoplay?d...art=0&num=10&so=0&type=search&plindex=0&hl=en
- - -
Chitral = frontier town in NWFP Pakistan.
Citral = (aka lemonal) either of a pair of terpenoids with the molecular formula C10H16O
- - -
We used to smoke 'Chitral' sourced from Amsterdam at the turn of the century, at least once a month. Never did it taste of lemon , it was always spicy hash like in taste and fragrance.
Does GHSco Lemon descend from the same line of 'Lemon' that Ingemar produces up North? or is GHSco Lemon a completely different strain?
Many thanks for explaining
peace out

shantyman said:hello peeps
im 6 weeks in to flower of gh trainwreck and the plants look exactly the same as the pics of the arcata one on here
out of 6 planted 5 hermied after 3 weeks
hey docleafDocLeaf said:What temps are you running at? We found TW genetics were only prone to herming with heat-stress. Reduce the temps.
Please show us a photo and all the best.
AinSophAur said:I see a lot of people talking and very few growing. Keep the shit talking 'till after we get some quality feedback from the growers of these new seeds.
a breeder should have no reason not to discuss his strains.....
