Greenpoint seeds!!

[CoB_nUt]

Hey ya'll...I'm looking to unload most/all of my GP seeds. All well taken care of. I just have waaaay too many other things to play with. I've done a bunch of GPS runs and I've had nothing but above average results. PM me for the list, details, etc.

If you have Jelly Pie, when was it purchased? Was it during this recent drop or before?
@Gu did you recently do a limited drop of JP during or near black friday?

Do u know if most gps strains have a hollow stem ?

I believe hollow stems could come from calcium deficiency and/or an imbalance in the calcium and magnesium ratios. Could depend on your medium as well. I get hollows from time to time. It's hard to pinpoint I'm sure others have some ideas. I think if they stretch hard n fast it can happen too. Like some strains could be prone to it based on genetic background and in the right conditions present that characteristic.
A more studied botanist should chime in, if they haven't already, I'm still reading up thru the pages today.

If you're into gps gear and holding a pack of raindance, pop them first. I've ran or tried purple badlands, blizzard bush, cookies n chem, dreamcatcher and raindance. Deadhead leaning raindance, hands down is the best one. Mouth coating sour skittles flavor with a nice potent high. Delicious. Keeper.

I have enjoyed all of the strains well enough, but was getting burnt out on SD. This had no stardawg.

Thanks for the tip, that's next on my list. Gonna fast forward them now

Of my 2 phenos they're nice n frosty and pretty chunky, but honestly a mild nose. Depending on what your cross will be. Dont let that turn you off to it but I'm hunting cowboy cookies next looking for more dank within her genes.
Just my 2 cents for now. I'm not kicking cookie n chem out yet, need more evaluation and smoke reports.

For those who have grown Dynamite Diesel, Hickock Haze, and/or Night Rider
I'm wondering what I can expect for a stretch so I know when to flip. I'm running all 3 of these as a sativa scrog canopy and only have about 70" ceiling with a mixture of cobs and cmh. I know they will reach bigtime, but I'm wondering which I need to expect them to do tripling or quadrupling in size as those two would obviously make a difference in when I should flip.
What was your experience with the stretch on these sativa dominants?

They're currently only about 5 to 6 inches tall but only because I have them tied down to their 3 gal pots so they can branch out, otherwise they're maybe 10 inches of total length. Most are beginning to show tiny unrecognizable preflowers. I'd like to wait to flip until after they've shown sex but what do you guys think?

I'd wait till they are sexually mature and clone from mature parts of the plant, then flower the clones.

You'll get a more complete understanding of the different phenos and not wonder if it throws nanners from clone or finishes faster, etc.

After trying a few different variations, I am not the most experienced grower here by a damn sight, I totally agree with this. Will never pheno hunt another way, if I can help it. Let them show, make two or three clones of each individual you might keep, flower at least one of each, cull the rest only after a good cure. It is long, arduous, annoying, and the fastest, most reliable way to hunt for top-notch mother plants at small to medium scale, depending on your risk profile.

I reluctantly let mine go after one run, but I may have made a mistake. There are lots of cookies crosses around me, so I decided to chase something less available. I got one female from three seeds, it was fucking killer, absolutely cookies n cream dom. But again, lots of cookies round here. My pack had twelve seeds, will pop the others as a group someday and look for one that matches the one I grew out. It tasted like shortbread, so smooth, and stony af.

Just because she ain’t skanky, it don’t mean she won’t rock your world, @el kapitan.

Agreed as well indeed.
I only run plants from seed into flower if I'm too curious and have to fill spaces. But without a doubt my clone runs of these GPS strains have been lightyears better than the seed plant run.
If possible I do exactly what you said, sex em, clone em, keep a few flower a few, go from there.
Also it's my experience that they evolve as they move a few generations from the original mom seed and will develop based on their environment and condition themselves to perform as they get used to where they're living. My experience has shown 3 generations out from seed they can stabilize and change slightly, all of course considering growing conditions are close to optimal.
When I tell my friends about new seeds n flavors they get all excited...LOL, I'm like wait wait, we're not gonna know how these turn out for 6 to 8 months, they have a slight reality check glimpse into my struggles but still they dont get it...

Agreed indeed that's why they're still here and growing. I do want to pick one from the 2 I have but also lotsa cookies around so its definitely gotta kill it. Hoping for some GMO from the Cowboy soon.

In a perfect world I know that would be ideal but unfortunately I'm completely strapped on time and running late on flowering a run so I dont have time to take clones and veg them to size. As far as manners I'm not too worried about that, is there something I've missed on any of these strains herming?
I was just curious what peoples experience was with the stretch and these specific strains. I almost guarantee they much more than double in size, but hoping someone can tell me their personal experience so I have a better idea.
As long as they're sexually mature, there should be no difference in growth from a clone to a seed right? If they wernt sexually mature yet then yes that could change things a bit, is my understanding atleast. I'm still learning.

My two phenos of CNC have next to no smells @ like week 7 in flower I’m still holding out hope though

I checked out Raindance after reading JohnGlennsGarden.

Looking for early short cross with Chem 91 or SFV OG Kush.

I think it could be good to look a bit further if you have any surgestions to look at?

I grew out CNC in the past and got 5 females. All 5 were nothing to shake a stick at. In comparison with the other GP strains I've ran(something like 6 strains, not including what I'm vegging now), your better bet is with CNC to find a keeper. One of my cnc's was some of the strongest smoke I can remember trying.

Yes, enquired about CNC. Hope I get a few males, normally over the average Females with todays kit.

I actually thought the same thing with my couple.. turns out both of mine had a very sweet smell that I just wasnt anticipating. a couple weeks in a jar brought the funk out.. Bodega Bubblegum on the other hand smelled great going in the jar.. 2 weeks later, MIDS

Ain’t that weird? The OBS1 female turned out to be total mids after wowing a lot of folks here with trichome heavy pics, and me with everything about it except the smoke. After three months in a jar it was passable old school haze.

OBS2, conversely, tasted great as soon as it was dry and only got better. It was dense and only got more so. I can spot a popcorn nug of it in a bag of larf from across the room, sofa king puffy and colorful and generally good looking, and even those taste great and rip my head off. Shit is bomb.

Same with me and Dreamcatcher. I had mid, mid, upper echelon mid and then straight FIRE!

Yeah, they were up for a couple days...

Interesting to know I'm not the only one with mild or no smells on CnC. If you can run it into 9 weeks hopefully you'll squeeze some flavors out. Mine are still not ready to trim and cure yet.
