Hash Queen
Hash Plant X Space Queen
One of my all time favorite cash croppers combined with the best male I have ever worked with. Cuddlefish HP is pretty much an Icon strain indoors in the US thick short and dense with CO2 the buds get insanely heavy. I always gave HP a rating of 8 but with the addition of Space Queen this new limited addition cross is more a collectorâ??s strain now.

1.Phenotypes -Moderately stable with light Space Queen traits. Sweet as sugar to the smell, though there may be a few phenos with a light, rotten, fruity type smell from the space queen influences.
2.Height-Medium stretch/ Colas swell late
3.Yield-Medium / Moderate trim work
4.Indoor/ Outdoor
5.Best way to grow- Topped and placed in bud early due to stretch.
6.Harvest Window_8-10
7.Sativa/ Indica 30/70
8.Hybrid- Hash Plant ( Sensi 1982) x Space Queen ( BCGA)
9.High type-Clean, clean, Intense, trippy, visual, spacey, pain relief,
10. Cuddlefish meets Spacequeen

Jillybean
( Orange Velvet X Space Queen)

Jill was lucky enough to be gifted this amazing Orange Skunk and they day we smoked the finished bud we knew we had to outcross it with our Space Queen male. You donâ??t really have to be a master breeder to figure out Orange and Pineapple Mango will be a good combination. The resulting outcross is remarkably stable and is close to a 50/50 representation of the parents. Topped only once in grows into a nice short bush with lots of side branching and multi heads. Flavors range from Orange, Tang, Candy, Mango, and Apple. The cross works really well in SOG or SCROG.. Very large stems and huge top colas make this an easy strain to grow in any medium.
We had 5 females in our bud room and 4 could be clones there so similar same height same growth speed and all have that Dank Orange smell. Very good mood elevator and general euphoria are experienced while high on this cross. Lime green with Vibrant Orange Hairs with temperature drops it can turn a deep burgundy to maroon.
1. Phenotypes -Very stable Orange-Mango 50/50 Phenotypes
2. Height-Short and Stocky
3. Yield-Very Heavy/ Easy Trim
4. Indoor/ Outdoor
5. Best way to grow-Single topping forms multi heads
6. Harvest Window-8 weeks
7. Sativa/Indica 30/70
8. Hybrid-Unknown Orange Skunk X Romulan X Cindy99BCGA
9. High type-Happy, mood enhancing, humorous, energetic
10. Smells like orange skunk or tang/ Taste so much like Dreamcicles you will not believe it!
11. Extremely up beat and happy buzz great for depression and bad days.

This is the story of Jack the Ripper and it is a fine example of what can happen along the way during a breeding project. I have always wanted to have Jacks Cleaner in seed form. I have been prompted to Self her using STS but I donâ??t believe in that type of breeding I feel a male plays a vital role in breeding projects. About 6 years ago I used a Blueberry to outcross the Jacks Cleaner to. Bushy Old Grower used some of these seeds to create the famous lifesaver. Two years ago I used the Jacks Cleaner x Blueberry to back cross the Jacks Cleaner to and created Jacks Cleaner back cross. Lost yet? Iâ??ll try and untangle this mess as we continue on this journey.
Even though the JC bx kicks ass, has won awards and is used in breeding projects it was not what I was looking for. Also about that time I ran Vicâ??s Space Queen and found it to be some of the best weed I ever smoked. We also found an amazing Space Queen male that Jill used to create Jillybean and we used to create Spacejill. It was not an easy decision but we decided after working with Space Dude he was a much better choice for a parent to outcross Jacks Cleaner to and re started completely over passing on the Jacks Cleaner back cross and Jacks Cleaner Blueberry to other members of TGA.

We used our standard breeding methods and completed the project on schedule and promptly started a test run of these new seeds. One weird trait of this new hybrid is twin seedlings. Many growers have reported duel sprouts form one seed but itâ??s normal for one not to survive when this occurs. All the seeds were started using rapid rooters with no pre soaking. I like to be as rough as possible and I never pamper test runs, once seedlings came up and developed nice roots I transplanted them into 1 gallon containers and placed under a 400 watt Metal halide light. Once the plants matured the males were taken to a separate area and the best possible females were tagged and the rest tossed. We ended up with 3 females we felt met or selection criteria. The plants were topped and trained and vegged for about 45 days and reached a size of 24â?� with multiple growing heads.
Once in bud the plants quickly started swelling with buds and by day 25 copious amounts of resin had become visible. Once in bud things got interesting when we had visible resin at just 2 weeks of budding and by week 3 we had a nice build up of trichomes and the first hints of the Lemon smell I was looking for.

One of the female plants stretched so much I had to bend her severely to keep her close to equal to the rest of the crop. Even the lower buds drip with resin and I am happy to report the mango lemon smell I was looking for I nailed it dead center. Normally I top all plants in our garden but with test plants it takes up less room if I leave them un topped and as I usually am moving them about a lot taking pictures and such it just makes them more manageable.

You can see in the picture the plants developed nicely grown in only my own super soil and in a 5 gallon pot fed only water the entire run to test her natural ability to produce without being pushed you can see the results speak for themselves.

Maturing much faster than JC was another hopeful goal and at 50 days Iâ??d say we nailed that trait as well. All three females are alike with the exception of the height of the one female. To avoid numerical confusion we gave each female a name. Lemango became the tall one that looked more Space Queen dominant. Soylent Green was apparently the largest of the three as far as cola size and the plant most resembling Jacks Cleaner with her predictable resin leaf curl was given the name Pink lemonade. This is the plant that became the star during multiple sessions in front of my lens.

The trichome production is off the chart and she has the classic raised head on a tall stalk thatâ??s so classic of JC. I feel this represents the total sum of what Iâ??ve learned and collected doing this my entire adult life. To be able to pass on traits I have seen attributed to the mother plant and then to actually create a Phenotype with the same qualities and maybe even some improvements is truly humbling. The plant has Pink resin ok? I mean would you be happy or what? Now I have a gene pool to work with and continue the Cubing of the original Jacks Cleaner f1 to produce a more stable line but variety is the spice of life among tokers and each of the females we found is a legendary keeper in itself. I enjoy each plants smoke equally but there are subtle differences that make it nice to choose from according to my needs.

We will be entering this strain in the 2006 Cannabis Cup and if itâ??s a fair event I have no doubt this girl will place very high on the score cards.


I think the best news about this strain is there available now. We have a lot of cool things from tasty to pretty to sativas to crazy combos of berry and lemon but Iâ??m taking this to the pot snobs party. Lets have a look at the end results, Lemango was more Space Queen dominant and has a nice citrus and Fruit taste as her name implies. Soylent Green did indeed yield the most coming in at just over 2 ounces of cured dried bud. She has a nice Lemon Berry taste that is my favorite in a joint having a much smoother draw than the parent JC. Finally Pink Lemonade is the most potent and most like JC. Incredible expansion as all the resin melts away on the bud and your lungs simply explode and your head follows shortly after, it only takes 3 bong hits to make me smile like a Cheshire cat.

Jack the Ripper
Jacks Cleaner P1 X Space Queen
Dank Dairy Certified

As good as JC bx was, I learned a lot in 6 years breeding and growing almost full time and I was confident I could find a better male using patterns to find the recessive drug traits. So instead of continuing a cube I wasnâ??t 100% satisfied with the outcross I decided to start again using two different lines to establish the best. JTR is the first outcross to be completed using a Spacequeen male; the second will be a Cindy99 outcross. The goal here is to establish the best possible outcross to cube back to JCf1. The cool part is the outcrosses are sometimes better than the parent strains, I feel this is the case with JTR. The Lemon tart of JC has combined with the candy mango flavor of the Spacequeen to create a resinous marvel. Maintaining JCâ??s heavy structure and potency the female dominated this cross with the exception of adding some sweet mango flavor and smoothing out JCâ??s harsh toke. Many people who have smoked the JC dom pheno and JC in the same sitting claim the JTR is better.

Jacks Cleaner II
JC f1 X JC X SQ(jtr)

If you follow my work at all you know JC is my favorite breeding mom. I can use her to test males or increase the potency of any strain. I truly feel itâ??s the most dominant strain I have ever worked with. She is also the most potent plant I have ever worked with, with no ceiling when it comes to high. We have used back crossing with the f1 to recreate her in seed form. Test grows and severe stress shows the new cross to be stable and extremely potent, a soaring 8-9 week Sativa Haze Also used for breeding work as males are JC dominant.

1.Phenotypes -Moderately stable with light Jack the Ripper traits. Lemony sweet to the smell, almost as lemony as the JC, though there may be a few phenotypes with a lighter, lemon smell, probably from the JTR influences.C2:
2.Height-Medium to heavy stretch/ Colas swell late
3.Yield-Medium / Moderate trim work
4.Indoor/ Outdoor
5.Best way to grow- Topped and placed in bud early due to stretch.
6.Harvest Window_8-10
7.Sativa/ Indica 70/30
8.Hybrid- Pluton X Purple Haze X Lambsbread X NL X Jack Herer X JTR Male
9.High type- Intense, trippy, visual, spacey, pain relief
10.Makes very usual bubble tasting and smelling like lemons

This remarkable find comes to us courtesy of MzJill. She was gifted an amazing Orange skunk that to me resembled AEâ??s California Orange but with larger buds and a thicker stalk. It will turn a Vibrant Maroon when exposed to cooler night temps almost turning black just before harvest. She has a light happy buzz that makes me laugh and smile. Her taste is what is the most amazing here is what one grower said after sampling some OV.
â??Orange Velvet reminds me of a warm summer day eating dreamcicles underneath the trees in the backyard. This is one of the most pleasant tastes I have ever experienced; like vanilla ice cream coated in orange sherbet. Honestly if you are looking for a smoke that will please all of your senses this is the one for you. It is a nice high, very mellow, so you can get things done if you need to, and tastes like you bit off a piece of the sunset and it melted in your mouth.
The Jillybean used in this bx is a direct offspring and the cool part about this cross is Jillybean may be better than the mother plant so this just stabilizes the phenotype and locks down the Orange in a larger percentage.

Ozzy
Black Domina X Grimm male

I have long loved Sensiâ??s Original Description of Domina.
â??This full blooded Indica with large bracts will soon have you on your knees and begging for more. This harsh overpowering lady simply gushes sticky resin to which most men seem to have a fatal attraction. A word of warning: this powerful compact Indica has had a devastating effect on many a man, leaving them apparently beaten and whipped with a strange smile on their faces.â?�
I always figured it was a smallish plant due to there antiquated picture but Badboy found a cutting that produces and absolute monster of a female and just coated in resin and dank as it gets. A very spicy exotic smoke, very much like a good imported hash. This is a strain I have wanted to add for awhile and with the introduction of new genetics from the famed Grimm Brothers will add that fruity smell we are now known for.

Indica Hybrid with fast finish below 8 weeks.

Specifically, what medical applications do each of the strains have, if known? That was the original question- this was the thread:

Very cool, very good info, and as always, the pics are a delight.
So I'm also really interested in the origins of the Ortega cut- that's one of the foundation lines that you have been working with, correct?
Someone who I've been talking to has mentioned that Ortega and her descendants have anti-inflammatory properties- I'd like to know where they came from (ancestors) and how they have been passed along- what strains still carry that effect.
And do you know anything about an old school line called Afghani Dream?
