Pretty sure everyone hates phlyos as they started breeding after they swore they wouldn't using what was sent in to be tested
Phylos asks you to send in a dry stem. How could they possibly use a dry stem for breeding? Is it even possible to tissue culture from a dry stem?

They are not breeding with samples. They are breeding, yes. And the data we all voluntarily sent them will be very valuable as they will be making extensive use of marker assisted breeding. But to say they stole genetic material for breeding is simply not true (and not possible)
Wow, after looking into them just a little more, I don't think I'll ever send them a sample.

Their VP of Breeding, John McFerson's LinkedIn page shows he works at Monsanto. Sounds like nothing but trouble here. Does Monsanto own Phylos? Staying as far away from Monsanto as possible.

No, but they are clearly positioning themselves to be acquired by big ag once they arrive on the scene.

Part of the fun is finding your own fire with trusted breeders beans imo. If you can trust your favorite breeders than you can trust what you grew from seed is legit. I'd love to have some of the legend cuts and do hold a "certified" cut or 2 but my keepers I have found by far meet or exceed the MSS cut I have. Many members in this very thread do as well.

Tissue culture from dry stem I'm not sure is possible so I'm not sure they are stealing but who knows with today's science etc.

I find breeders I trust and try not to get caught up in hype, least if I have never seen or tried the variety etc. IMO if you put in the work you will find the fire, I was was raised and taught to grow non lazy. I was always told shit in shit out. Some of the plants posted here would rival the elite clones people are so horney for. No doubt in my mind.

Happy growing!

Thought I'd share as I'm board as f###... Shit starting to pull together. Little saggy after watering an hour ago. SM still orange and packing frost. D-tang and BBIC from red eye looking great as well other than a couple low low bananas I should have and prob would have cut off anyway so time will tell in the upper half of bbic. Nothing yet. Sorry for the shitty pic through window. Day 38 or 39 I think of 12/12 new years day went 12/12.20200207_201433.jpg

Also getting transplants/new 12 seed cover crop, and a well needed tidy up in veg tent after a small leak and mess . Started another selection process also a bit back and added a few as well. From seed but may be culled prior to flower as well. I want strong genetics. And all must flower stable as well for future breeding. If I had more room I'd give them all a go. Plus the "hunny I'm low on seeds, you want good weed right" excuse comes faster.(guava wookie!) She is very nice about it if we can afford to though. Great lady she is!

New babys for the "hope for another keeper run" in my near future.

Bodhi- clusterfunk (1), more cowbell ogkb (2). Laplata labs- colorado clemintine (2). In veg tent pic.

Also added to the dome and heat mat.

Laplata labs- alien bubba pez (2). Bodhi- lucky wookie (2). Tga (old gear) cherrygasum, in honor of sub RIP. We will see what comes up (strong) just to ba safe I bet on a 2-3 not popping..20200207_201401.jpg
I'm in the search for real elites not just great. My d-tang does it for me, maybe the a11#2 but the structure I dont like (rear right) I have the space monkey clone and the BBIC as well but have yet to flower fully. My MSS and ecsd x wcsd a close buddy has and I can get back when he clones. Trying to save some room to find more fire! Slow and steady wins the race. 2 years and one keeper.... REAL stable keeper. That's it and 2 that got away silver mountain #2 and clusterfunk #2 phenos from bodhi. The red purple fad of the CF was a beautiful thing!

Babys to rapid rooter day before yesterday. Bodhi and laplata taking off ahead and fast!

All this BS and phylos galaxy talk has me dropping beans lol. To many at that. I always say only strong will survive and sometime they all strong lol. Sorry for the rant I'm very stoned!

Happy growing!

Last day to hop on that BOGO sale at GLG, just a heads up! The Granola Funk remix freebie disappeared fast! Anyone have a comparison between the Forum Cut and the OGKB?
Forum Cut > OGKB. At least in terms of yield and I would say more potent as well. Taste wise, I like both equally. Just my opinion.

I have definitely had multiple strains by Bodhi rival elite clones. Years ago you get get almost any elite cutting in Colorado. Not so much anymore but you can get a few still.
Exactly screw the elites, I hold a couple and honestly my seed found keepers I like better lol. Obviously you put in the work and found "the shit". People get way to hung up on clones. Imo much more satisfying finding them and then grow out the good ones from clone. The elites can be great or all hype jmo:blsmoke:.

Happy growing!

does anyone know the genetics on the new crosses? this is from a glg email I got
Smart Move
Sunshine Kush
Dazzleberry
Celestial Citron
Spirit Train
Siam Space Probe
Rajasthani Space Probe
Devil's hashplant
electric cowboy
purple wookie v3
twin flame v2
Curious about the same thing. Regardless, it's always fun to guess. I'm going to go out on a limb and say Devil's Hashplant is HA OG x '88g13hp.
