Graytail's 4th Perpetual: 4x4 Samsung Panels

Destroyer is dried and jarred and yielded 71 grams, 2.50 ounces over 150 days = 0.473 grams per day. It looks like all of this crop will come in on the low side because of the bad humidity for the past couple months, but the produce looks great! :love:

Nice job as always :high-five:

Enjoy :ganjamon:
 
It does look very tasty indeed. Do you thinka that Destroyer even needs lower RH?
 
Tasty lookin Gray...:high-five::bravo:

Well, I've seen this a couple times before. I had a Zam+ that finished with small hard buds with no fans but extreme frost, for instance. I think it must be a function of humidity. It doesn't produce a healthy plant, but the trichs are still abundant. There's the common wisdom that a stressed plant will be more potent, but I've always said that's because there's just less plant. You didn't grow a better crop, you just got less plant material per trichs.

This is definitely a plant that would want a humid equatorial environment to thrive. It was a couple weeks into bloom when it first started fussing and it never gave up. It dumped every single fan. :laughtwo: But I find that if a plant like that will stabilize, it'll come through with some potent smoke.

I think Destroyer would love a long hot humid summer, but it made it through my room with 70-77 for temps and RH of 15-30. I have one in a cup that I'll run for summer - that one should do much better. :slide:


[Edit] This is fine smoke ... y'all should run Destroyer - it's a classic, like a special cognac or something. Mmmph. :bongrip: Fine smoke. KnowwhatI'msayin'? Fine fine smoke.
:yummy:

Sho do Mr Gray! :cheesygrinsmiley: Harvest looks great. I’ve witnessed the low humidity frost relation before on some plants before I got the humidifier upgrade. I’ve heard several times that people will drop RH the last few weeks of flower to try and get more frost.
 
I do, but it only works with plants that need it in the first place. Sativas are usually better at home with high RH throughout the whole cycle.

That’s really insightful and though the only real sativa Ive grown is the Durban I just chopped, I can definitely see that frost was only happening on the buds for the most part. Durban, of course, is relatively watered down with indica genetics I hear these days.
 
Yes Archie...they are ruining it ...i'm pissed about that. Neiko suggested a couple different places to possibly get a more pure version of this very classic Sativa from South Africa. Seeds of Africa is one place he talked about.

Just checked it out. I’m intrigued. Thanks for the heads up about that seedbank
 
@Lerugged is running landrace Durban Poison. He’s in South Africa and had them gifted from an old time grower i think.

Hi Amy,...Rugged is lucky to have those genetics, wow, from an old time 'local' grower too. Can't beat that for a 'true' example of DP. I betcha the smoke is fantastic. Wish i could grow out some of those. The pure ones are harder to find. Thanks for that info ..:high-five:

Hi all.
I am indeed growing out landraces. They were left for me by my grandfather who was quite senior in the army and traveled Africa extensively during the late 30's to 60's. When he passed away he left his army stuff to me and one day when hiding a box of smokes in his rain coat pocket I found a stash of seeds all with descriptions of where they were collected. I guess you could say I was left something very valuable. He must have grown them out over the years as for the most part the seeds are viable.
In the pack was Malawi, Swazi, Lesotho, transkei (mixed but I've grown out rooibaart and transkei green) Durban poison, port st johns, koffy bay and some from Tanzania. The potency is all over the place as they are land races however I've found some awesome ones so far. Will grow out a whole tribe of seeds this spring to select and breed the keepers.
So far the Durban monster I have is the best I've come across and the other Durban is too class smoke but very wild and difficult to stay on top of.
This spring its time for the transkei(find an epic rooibaart) and some malawi to go with the durbs.
 
Rugged....thanks so much for sharing your story about your gramps. If he could only come back a while and share all the stories with you about his travels.
Just a very , very cool story...thanks again for sharing and enjoy the day.
