Yep, that's mine... thanks for the compliments!

Potency wise I'd say it's a 10 out of 10... Never smoked W.Russian or Chemdawg - but if we're comparing to name-brand old school strands, it's much more potent than W.Widow or Northern Lights - both of which I'd give an 8.5 or so.

It's up on that G13, NY Diesel level. 6 hours of pure indica couchlock... IF you can make it through the ride.

Amazing bud.

God Damn dude. I have just found one of the 3 I am going to order from highgrade next. I am going to keep my Black Pearl clones going, now I am definatly going to order Hindu Kush, I was also thinking of buying the White Russian, Black Queen, Poison Afghan, Brainwreck, Kona Gold, or Purple Cindy. I have to widdle those choices down to only 2more for a total of 4 strains. After these clones get done flowering I am spending like $8,000 on a huge hydro setup. 4 different rooms, 1 strain in each room. I am growing a couple of plants in some bubble buckets right now and I am definately going hydro for my next grow. What would you recommend for the other 2 strains out of those I listed?

Alright everyone, I finally cut the buds into cureing jars last night. The buds were pretty dry from hanging them. The total weight from the one mother plant is 46.8 grams. For those of you who dont know your grams thats 1.67 ounces ( 1 1/2 ounces is 42 grams ) so 4.8 grams over 1 1/2 ounces is what the final weigh in was. Now lets think about this, I murdered the hell out of that mother plant for as many clones I could get. So there was only the two top colas and the two baby clones that I left on there because they were too small to take at the time. The rest of the plant was stripped of everything except for some big fan leaves. I am really amazed at how much she yielded. This is definatly a 4+ ounce yielder in soil under 1 1000w light. Also to add that my HPS bulb burned out on me in the fist 2 weeks of the grow so I just used my Neutral Delux MH conversion bulb. These clones that I am growing are going to be way better than the mother plant. The conditions in the growroom were not ideal by far, sometimes reaching temps of 93 degrees with 16% humidity. This strain is super easy to grow and very forgiving. I used VICS SUPER SOIL for my first grow in five gallon buckets under 1 1000w light. I vegged the plant for about 8 weeks but that was only to get as many clones as possible. I didnt add any nutes or anything to the soil just watered once a week with plain RO water and that was it. Now for the clones I have actually got a better air conditioner to controll the heat and some water sprayers for humidity. The temps now are almost perfect, 75 - 77 degrees during lights on and 73 - 75 with the lights out. Humidity is about 35% in there during the flowering , And I have ordered a new HPS bulb from hydroponics.net.

Now to the second part of this story, The smell when I opened the jars this morning to let the buds breath almost killed me. I popped the top of my mason jar and I almost dropped it because the smell hit me so hard I thought I was in a fight. I dont know if this is because it was the first night of cureing but I can honestly tell you this, I have never smelled anything like this before and I pride myself on being a smell detective. The first wind you get is kind of fruit loop cerial box smell ( you know when you open a box of fruit loops and smell that dry cerial) its kind of like that, but OH NO my friends its not over, after that comes this really really pungent citrus smell. It is very intoxicating, almost like if you were to be wiffing gas or ethanol. I have never smelled anything like this before, I had to ask my fiance to come and smell it because I didnt know if I was overreacting or what the hell was going on. But happy to tell ya she had the same reaction that I did, As soon as you smell it there is this urge to get it away from your nose as soon as possible, like I said before its like taking a huge wiff of Ethanol. The citrus smell is intoxicating almost causing light headedness if kept at the nose for longer than 5 seconds. Like I said before I dont know if this is because it was the first night in the mason jars but it was something I have never experienced before. Sorry to tell you this but dont have a smoke report yet but comming soon ( hopefully tonight ) I will let all of you know what happened.
Going to give a smoke report tonight and in about 1-2 weeks to see what the difference is after the cureing process. Got some pics I am going to load here in about 30 minutes. Later

WOW Awesome pull man. I can't give you any rep right now, too early since last time. Smoke up a nice bowl or two for your friends here at GC.

Hey thanks everyone for your replies. Did a smoke for my friends at GC and I gotta tell ya, after only 1 day of cureing this is some really good stuff. As of right now the smell has changed from that ethanol citrus smell to a very very very very fruity smell, very strong froot loop smell now, and still extremely pungent, definately still a 10 out of a 10 strength smell.

Smoke Report time:

This is a smoke report for a one day cure, I will have a final smoke report for everyone in about 1 week ( maybe in about 10 days).

Strength: As of last night I give the Black Pearl a rating of a solid 8 out of a 10. I am comparing the strength to the ChemDog I got from the LA Clinic from a buddy of mine that works there. I am expecting once the Black Pearl is properly cured it will be a solid 9-9.5, one thing to note is that this grow was in no way perfect. The temps were very high
( mostly high 80's to low 90's with a humidity level of about 20%. The bulb that I had to use was a MH bulb for flowering because the HPS bulb burt out on me in week 2. I am hopeing that this will definatly be a 10 if I do everything the right way this time.

Smoke/High: After only 1 day of cureing the smoke is very strong but a creeper, first start to feel the body change and then before you know it you are messed up. Very strong Sativa High, Highgrade was not joking when he said that it will whip your brain because thats exactly what it does. While adding everything together ( smell, taste, and high) I give it a solid 8.

Taste: Ok, here is one of the best parts. The taste has a hint of fruit but very sweet, the thing that comes to mind while smoking is that fruit zebra gum. Very enjoyable.

Smell: This is definately a 10 out of a 10. Very extreme and fruity, and it gets fruitier and fruitier every time I open the jars for fresh air. The strength of the smell permeates the room after a few seconds of opening the jars. I showed my friends and they are all freaking out about the smell, they cant keep their noses out of my damn jars.

Yield: I am expecting huge yields out of this strain. For me to yield 46.8 grams off of 2 top colas and 2 baby growths is rediculous. That plant was stripped of almost everything and still brought me over 1 1/2 ounces of some great Ganja. I am easily expecting atleast 4 ounces per plant from my clones that I just put into flowering.


Like I stated before I am expecting way better results next time around. This is a very good smoke for even chronic/picky smokers ( which I am ) and is very very easy to grow for beginner growers. This strain is very forgiving and I recommend this strain to everyone. I fully understand why highgrade calls Black Pearl a SUPER STRAIN. I am very happy my first pick was from Highgrade. Once I get ahold of Highgrade I will be ordering his Hindu Kush ( thanks to Mr.MJ ) and some Black Queen.

Please everyone, replies are greatly appreciated and welcome. I will keep everyone updated and the final grow report is coming. Happy smoking to all.

Dude, that's some KILLER color on that bud! It's friggin gorgeous! Black Pearl was the first "super strain" I grew from Highgrade Seed years ago and that is the strain that sold me on that seed bank. All I can say is wait till you smoke this mofo after it's cured for about a month in jars. To this day my stoner friends still rave about the high and the taste and they've been around the block weedwise. I pulled of almost 1 POUND from just 4 Black Pearl plants something I had never before been able to achieve with any other strains. So yea, I know why he named these mofos "super' strains cause they ARE!!

we were just talking about fruit stripe gum a couple days ago

that's jacked up cuz I have not seen that gum in 20 years and to come across a post mentioning it is kinda freaky

HGS has too many great sounding strains!

Their white russian is stellar

LOL thats crazy. I am very excited to see what its like once cured for a couple of weeks. Of course you all know the weed has been getting better everyday. And the smell is extreme fruit and very strong. I love this strain, and cali is right about the friend thing because all of my friends are begging me to let them get some off of me. Only smoked them out one time and they are freaking out about it.

Alright everyone, just sent in my money to highgrade for some Hindu Kush and some of their Black Queen. I cant wait to get those seeds and start on finding my mother plant from those 2 strains. By the way my clones are doing great and I am very excited to see my whole grow room with plants that are bigger than my mother was. My room is starting to fill up pretty quickly with a forest of beautiful ladies. There are a total of 7 clones of the Black Pearl and I also have an unknown strain, and I ended up with 4 females from those batch of seeds. God damn I cant wait until I get those Hindu Kush and Black Queen seeds, I hate being so impatient, My life is based off of instant gratification so its killing me. I will load some more pics of my current grow room in a couple of days. Later everyone.

Hello everyone, today is a very happy day for me, because I cecked my mail and my seeds were in there with a little something extra from highgrade. He told me that if I did a grow journal on my Black Pearl he would send me some free seeds and he kept his word. Not only did he send me extra Black Queen and Hindu Kush seeds but he also threw in there 10 Purple Cindy seeds FOW FWEE. I can not wait until I get these things going. He shipped out the seeds on Saturday the 28th and I got them yesterday ( Tuesday the 1st). Oh and I am going to be posting my new journals for Black Pearl, Black Queen, Hindu Kush, and Purple Cindy in the grow journal area this time so look for me there. It will be a couple of weeks before I can load new pics of everything because I came home and Maximus had my fucking camera in his mouth ( or what was left of the camera ) wagging his tail and so happy to see me he walked right up to me and showed me what he had, like he found a new toy. But I will keep everyone posted on what is going on. Later
