L-R: PRK [ which looks nothing like the last batch ], AG, CT.
wow. you might have a keeper/fresh breeding stock if that PRK stays in beast mode all the way through flower like that. Looks like it'll be a high yielder, a first for PRK

here in the tents, Albert Supertramp is the biggest of the bunch followed by Ghost Arcata, 91 Skunk D. Electric Larryland got stunted and remains behind the others. Still not sure what happened to it, but is recovering now but still in a 3L container

Thanks for a solid elbow...I need to grab a couple cuts of that one, you're right. I've got a sack of about 60 Copper Raspberry from the last batch that need to be tossed, yet somehow I haven't been able to set them free...lol. Would have loved for that cross to have worked out. I only tested 3, but tossed them when they were as slow as the moms.

I'm considering pulling the AG and giving all the space to the happy PRK and CT.

Did any new information come to light on why there was that ogkb'esque issue with that batch? Was it a rough reversal or an unexpected result from continuing the line?

I'm pretty sure he wouldn't mind me posting his comments from our mails:

"This news really bums me out man, We've sold a couple thousand packs of the Pure Raspberry Kush FEM seeds during the last 4 or 5 years. Obviously, something is not right with that last batch. Id like to get to the bottom of it."
And then:
"Well I am completely bummed about this. PRK has always performed well, I honestly don't know what could have gone wrong with the last batch. Its weird, but it seems something did go wrong."
And then:
"I threw in some nice gear, but the Pure Raspberry Kush FEM seeds, are from a new batch that I just harvested, its not the same shitty batch you had problems with."

That's as much as he addressed specifically. He took care of it immediately, professionally, and won my support. All I could have asked for.

I’ve got two packs of prk from gps bought in 2017 with the black label. Those the ones affected?

I think so, but the new pack was in the same packaging; same label. I got 2 also from GPS, and, you know, they crapped out.
I bought a pack of PRK from greenpoint and threw them away after reading the bad reviews.
His next batch may be better, but I'm not buying it again.

Fool me once... :roll:

yet you have multiple packs of GPS that some say nay, some say yay, lol:bigjoint:. I got my LA Pure Affie from there when he first released them and they been great. After reading what Amos showed he said, I think Id try those again or the Cheap Thrills even, but thats just me.

In my defense, I didn't see any bad reviews until the packs had already been purchased.
Exactly how does a breeder go about making a "bad batch" of seeds?
Especially on a restock.
Sounds like Rusty got sloppy, which doesn't fill me with confidence.

On the bright side, my triple novas are doing well in organic soil.
I topped them yesterday in an effort to keep the canopy even.
Was going to LST, but my OBS had root issues so I want to slow the TN down a tad.

yep, I'd mark Rusty off now. It must be Rusty. Just like with all the good OBS reviews, it must be the strain, lol. Cmon, man, lol, its all just growin a plant. Hell, he let eso get a five yr old pack replaced, I'd at least try him, just sayin. And Ize just teasin a lil, lol

I picked up the LA Affie and Cheap Thrill the first go round as well. I'm anxious to run the Affie after hearing of your grow. I can say this, one of the CT phenos I grew has very strong PRK characteristics. Has amazing flavor, smell and high, has become my go to from the afternoon on. I've got 2 more seeds left I'll definitely crack her the next time. I so want to grow out some PRK now.

I think your negativity gets the best of you at times man. There ain't a breeder out there that hasn't made mistakes.
And from what I've seen Rusty always goes out of his way to make things right. Just like @Amos Otis commented you should contact him, might be worth your while. I'm definitely gonna grab a pack when there in stock.

Did I say the OBS root issues were the fault of the breeder?
Nope. That was my bad.

Is a "bad batch" of seeds Rusty's fault?
I'm thinkin' yes; definitely.

"lol"

I hope it works out for you.

I was pretty down on the PRK's 'til I harvested 'em and smoked/made rosin from them. Even the leaf dropping plant makes serious rosin. (Red...almost transparent). Mine were freebies with last year's 60% off sale so I'm not gonna ask for a replacement...LOL. I wasn't cash cropping...so no loss here due to the lower yield (other than that yummy fuckin rosin). I'll definitely snag a pack again soon.
