Hi, I've just had a couple successful crops of Green Crack and Black Indica, and I thought I would go in a new direction. I bought some new seeds from crop king seeds. The Black Indica seeds came from them, so I knew I would get good stuff.
The seeds I ordered were regular Blueberry seeds and feminized Durban Poison. Contrary to normal practice for a home grower, I'm actually hoping for some males. I don't have a lot of space, just a few grow tents. What you see in the picture are 3 Durban Poison females (these will be the mothers) and 7 Blueberries. In a month or so, i will clone for gender, taking two cuttings from each plant. As soon as i know the sex, I'll actually take all the females Out of the flowering tent. Males all go in, where they can bloom until I'm able to collect their pollen. The aim is to provide myself with seed for future crops but also to cross-pollinate to intentionally create a strain which combines the best aspects of the two parents: a Durban which isn't so tall but still taller than the Blueberry, and which has the colours and aromas of the Blue. Hopefully achieve a nice head high while also producing relaxation.
In the last crop, i stressed the plants through over fertilization, and the Green Crack actually produced seeds of its own. Not a male flower to be found anywhere. So, i have also germinated 3 of those seeds, and I'll pollinate them also with the Blueberry. Down the road, I'll plant the Blueberry Durban and the Blueberry Crack, leave some males and females of each inside one Bloom tent, and create yet another hybrid.
Inside of 5 years, im hoping to create several new hybrid strains this way, and eventually set up shop. This grow journal might end up taking a year to finish, but it will "end" with fully flowering sinsemilla phenos of all types including the Blueberry, Durban, and Green Crack parent strains for comparison.
Wish me luck!
