What's going on with the lupine lime? Who's got a pack of those

If that's the cherry bomb from bomb seeds it should be good. That's actually one of the mothers I lost in the flood. A cherry bomb from them. Smelled like candied cherries. I loved it. I bought two 5 packs. Only popped one pack to find her. I crossed it to master kush, and called it cherry master. After the old video poker machines. They were called that. If @Gu~ found a nice cherry pheno ig probably will go great with stardawg. I'm definitely interested in it. Cherry is one my favs. I'd like to him cross some relentless genetics frosted cherry cookies to his stardawg. But I'll end up with both it and the peacemaker

My male already has open pollen sacs. I didn’t expect that for several more weeks.
Is that a bad thing?

I haven't noticed any difference in potency of males by how fast they flower. I know a few breeders who say they like males that hold their spunk. I had a c99 years back that flowered super fast and he bred really good. I look for males that don't preflower but then flower quick, but thats because I'm always trying to lower the days of flower in the cross
 
On a random note. I've come to the conclusion that my 5 bulb t8 sucks balls 8-) I've been using it since 04 but I am getting mad stretch and no side branching on my Gmo x dawg. I put them in mom room under the 600w mh. Maybe I will throw some led tubes in it IDK

My reply wasn't exclusive to GPS?
And "tester" =/= "unknown. :roll:

I buy many packs based off genetic make-up only. Lots of growers do, especially if they have experience growing said genetics.

Yep, tester == unknown.
You may be familiar with two strains but there's no way to know exactly what the combination will produce.
Negative traits could also be exposed.

Unless I missed something, Gu hasn't really told us much about his process for creating seeds for the retail market.
That's totally understandable, and could even be considered a trade secret, but people tend to make assumptions when information is scarce.

Has he even grown any of the new strains?
I assume not since there aren't any bud pics -- but I could be wrong.

Mrs. Stool says I'm wrong a lot... :dunce:

According to mrs. Widow I'm always wrong even if no is around to even here me. I'm still wrong. But she has that little patch that says I'm wrong. So I'm fine with being wrong. Lol

What? I guess maybe "unknown" to someone new to growing but I know if I grow say, fc GSC x Stardawg (regardless if its JJs or Gus) what to expect from the offspring. The same can be said for just about any proven male x to real deal Holyfield cuts. (another reason people should read descriptions carefully but I wont go into that)
Plus, this is all part of pheno hunting through F1s. Its about variation. You "may" occasionally come across two alleles that don't pair well but IME, its rare and often subjective.

There are few "breeders" that actually show their testing or selection process. But I could name countless that announce drops with 20 different strains 3 times a yr with nothing more than a few professionally photographed bud shots.
Not to mention all "pre-release" sales that sell out almost immediately based on exactly what I've posted....familiarity with genetics used as well as breeder credibility.
At the end of the day, we're all testers....whether anyone wants to admit that or not.

yeah the whole male plants that flower early get that from hemp and will be weak is a very old outdated idea and is really just rediculous if you think about it.

many would consider a female who flowers quickly a positive trait. does that mean that it comes at the cost of potency. not in my experience. why would males be any different?

you go look around the seed vendors these days and you will see many of them dont even have a single photo. it doesnt instil trust in me. like did you even grow them out yourself at least?

And most are on IG so even if folks did grow them out good luck finding them. IGs search function sucks donkey balls!

I consider research just another part of growing but its a huge time suck.

Damn after checking that out I'm definitely chucking with this black chinook male. Going to be hitting another chinook, pig whistle and some apollo 11 x purple badlands

Dang I had a black female, she was VERY chem tasting after a couple month cure there’s a slight berry smell when you open the jars.. oddly it’s too sleepy for me.. I seeded one limb with nyc SD..

I actually have no trouble finding breeders or grow pictures on instagram. Quicker and more efficient than the forums here, imo.

If you are on a mobile device, running the app, but their website is bullshit. IG on a desktop computer using a regular browser is donkey balls.

Here is some GPS OBS, CnC, Blizzard Bush and Shoreline Genetics’ Sour Glue, just starting to stretch. Grown in an unholy combination of different media on a single dripper system, deal with it, lol.

I get what you are saying, but it really depends what you are looking for and expecting to find. Hashtags aren't meant to describe anything, they just get you there. If I search a hashtag, and then scroll all of the posts containing that, then read the captions/comments often times posted with the photos... well there is quite a bit of info found in a short amount of time. That is all I am saying.

No I get what you're saying. I use IG for keeping up to date on up coming drops, new projects in the works, etc. I'm just partial to the forums (breedbay was always good for solid info)

And I also like growing F1s and will pay the going cost if its something I want and they're genetics I've grown more than once.
Damn....
Its like its against the rules not to debate every statement in this thread, lol

I probably should've clarified that because IG is a mobile app after all and I'm almost always on a laptop.

Those plants look lush and healthy!

Lol, I hope you don't think I am trying to debate with you, Tang. We all have our own way of doing things. I was just sharing my .02. Friendly discussion. :blsmoke:
