Grand Daddy Purple S1 & Pre-1998 Bubba Kush S1

Those freebie Lemon Skunk seeds I just grew out must have been about 8 years old! :D
It's been a while here, but here's all 18 GDP plants I have going:


I'm going to grow the more-haired/less-haired GDP f3 plants together with the GDP S1 backcross plants; those all have the potential for males (I think). I'm going to grow the GDP S1s (one's a runt) along with six GTH#1 S1s plants. :thumb:
 
I got these in a bigger grow area and under a better light, but I haven't gotten out to get any soilless mix. There's one GDP S1 runt (coming around), six GDP S1 backcrosses, and eight GDP f3 x GDP f3 plants:


This grow makes me realize how much (and for how long) I've been messing with this strain..... :headbanger:
 
Please pardon the intrusion, maybe you and/or your followers might be interested :cheer:


If so, please apply in the comparative grow thread, as I won't be responding to replies here :thanks:

:Namaste:
 
Late as always, but here they are. Pics of all the GDP plants I have going on at the moment:


The three at the top are all f3 crosses; they look a lot alike:


I've got two Pre '98 Bubba Kush S1 plants I'll get pics of when I can.
Man I love that strain, looks great my friend!
 
Sorry about the crappy pic, but I got too close with the camera. Here's one of the two male GDP f3 x GDP f3 plants I have so far:


I have them both in a closet, deciding on whether to take this cross further now, or do it later. I'll be putting a few plants in bloom a little sooner than I wanted, but I think I can make the room.
 
I love what your doing here chimp. What is your end goal with the plants? The knowledge gained doesn’t carry a price tag, just curious if you’re trying to find and isolate any particular traits. Beautiful!

I'm hoping to stabilize a strain that smells close to grape candy and hopefully stays purple, like the original (if staying purple is even possible).
I'm gonna cull those two premature GDP males, and if a good male pops up later in this grow after switching to 12/12, I'll use it.
 
That top withered up because the stem was too woody, so it didn't take. I took a good clone from a lower branch today, then put both of these into bloom (Pre '98 Bubba Kush S1):



I culled all of the GDP males, and I'm down to 11 plants. If a plant goes male under 12/12, I might breed something out, but I'm growing these plants mostly to see how I've done with breeding so far. :thumb:
 
You could be right. It might be that there is some recessive traits that aren’t necessarily recessive in the GDP. I’ve dropped 3 seeds from a Ken’s male and female that were just plain “strange”. Almost “micro” plants. Eight nodes and 5” tall with a 1” OD main stalk. I didn’t do anything other than grab the first male I had to mix with a female. I wasn’t breeding but grabbing a few hundred indica seeds. Looking forward to dropping 3 or 4 GDPxDrGrinspoon just to qualitatively compare the offspring expressions. Who knows... maybe I just used a shitty male?
