Default NL5xAfghan

Hello,
I'm growing out four of these girls. I've just read some negative responses to this strain in other threads.I hope they incorrect!
I went to a 12 hour light cycle last week.
The photo is 10 days old.(I'll update)





It's was 24" @ the flip. I hope they don't stretch too much.(pure Indica?)
Regards,Charmilles

hi charmilles,
Your nl5xafg looks very healthy, and looking forward to see her flowering.
I found little to no stretch from this strain, but as you say not all reports are great. However, I found a truly outstanding pheno, strongest indica I ever smoked. Hope you find some thing similar.
Peace
BL

Thanks Billy,It must have been a great plant,I'm glad to hear.I'm hoping for one also!

And thank-you Curious..I'm curious about what traits you didn't like?
Just straight-up weak?

Thanks and regards,
Charmilles

Thumbs up Good luck with the girls

Hi Charmilles

I just started vapping this strain and she is very relaxing and strong and spaced out with just 2 weeks cure. Helped me sleep well last night. Hopefully the jar will last another 2 weeks so I can try smoking. One of her clones is flowering now and the scent reminds me of artificial blueberry like a poptart. She's doesn't stretch much in flowering.

Thanks HHHG,
It sounds good.
I've got cuttings of all four rooted.
Two of the plants are shorter and bushier.




This is one of the shorter pheno.
I call this one #6
Regards and peace,Charmilles

Hey charmilles,

Your pics take me back in time to the last of the '80s and the first of the '90s. The first plants I ever saw grown indoors and my first clones came from a plant my mentor had and was some kind of nl5 cross from the seedbank. Not sure as to as it was just called "Martian bud" and was some kind of nl5 cross. Anyways your pics just stopped me in my tracks and I even dug out some old Polaroids to compare to yours and its like looking at that old clone!

Can't wait to see the buds!

IBF

hey Charm,
well my plants grew very different to the strain description...all mine stretched 2-3x and were very tall and lanky hovering over my NL5xHz...smell and taste was nice but did not get a keeper out of 7 girls due to my selection criteria...i don't know if it was just bad luck regarding the pheno's i got as sometimes it happens in any line its all luck of the draw with pheno expression but mine got pretty tall...hoping you get something like Billy that stones you to the bone

Forgive me, I haven't figured out the quote button.

Thanks LBF,I'm pretty stoked to see how these flower out also.

Thank-you Curious,
I'm sorry to hear the way your experience with this strain turned out.
With that much stretch I wonder if there was a mix up at the factory?
I have two different growth patterns,but not that much stretch on the tall one.

MJpassion,thank-you for the encouragement.





This shows the differnt growth patterns. @day 11
Plant#2 and #1(#6 looks like#1,#9 like #2)
Regards,Charmilles
