g 13 labs strawberry eclair, now i get why they gave sugar leaves their name, i ate some some half dried sugar leaves off a free seed strawberry eclair
bud, it was amazing like some fruity sugar shit, I'm definately running that again

with reguards to the whole seed lockdown thing

basically i put in 5 of me girl scout x hashplant crosses 1 was a male, he can get busy with a clone of his mother (girl scout cookies)
then im thinking if the 2 yo pollen of white ice is still good i'll do strawberry eclair cross white ice

unless someone got some kuta pollen they want to send west, im out of ideas

p.s. perhaps some sort of pollen register or something where we swap pollen,

an xray would do fuck all to some pollen in a bit of foil

Broke out the old Marlin lure rigging gear, and made some grow light hangers.

And... Dont laugh it's just a worthless bag of shitty old leaf for most of you blokes, but it's my first ever bag from my first grow.

Plants are really exploding with growth, lots of bud sites forming so the topping, LST and super cropping i done seems to have worked.

Super stoked, it's even starting to look like a bud... almost.

Cant wait to see what these look like in a few more weeks, but so far all plants seem happy and they are praying towards the light. Given them a light lollypop, and instead of one big defoliation I've been selectively pruning a handful of leaf off each plant daily to try and let light and air to the bud sites. So got boxes of leaf drying.

Oh and in another first, the clone cutting i took has some roots already. Leaves are a bit droopy but it might just work. And fungus gnats are still under control after using the mosquito bits.

Yeah definitely! Super skunk, NL, white widow for me and then all of the bushy sativas!
I'm obviously from a different time/place.
Strains of my youth are Thai stick, Killer weed (from Dorrigo, iirc), then Skunk #1, other SSSC varieties including Skunk#1 x Basic 5 (aka NL#5), Friesland Indica, Nigerian-Kandahar, Haze x South African (yum) and Hawaiian x Skunk.
Sorry, I'm getting all nostalgic right now, and feel the need to go looking for some of the Skunk seeds that Shantibaba had stored in a 44 gallon drum for a lot of years and sold off more recently..

Pollen register is likely to get exploited. However, if it goes ahead count me in.
I'll add some Bubba Haze to start the register off.

The only issue I see is finding good males worth breeding with. Most people are just grabbing the first male that show’s host head instead of running and hunting through larger amounts trying to find the one with the best genetics/appeal like you would with females

true but if someone made it with sts spray and had to much than they needed it could be shared arround instead of every bloke trying to get the ingredients for sts of ebay

it would be like, being a sperm donor for weed :weed:

to get anything decent you’d still need people to put in the hard yards and find decent males and females to breed with instead of just cracking a 10 pack and chucking some pollen around.

Or you could just sell seeds
Soooo the current system?
This is exactly why we don't need more people polluting the gene pool selling shit seeds. Im all for making seeds and sharing them around, but don't go selling seeds and trying to make a buck off it unless you are actually putting in some real breeding work. Too many pollen chuckers that are claiming to be real breeders out there.

I aint saying that. I was just commenting on the idea of trading pollen, when you could just trade seeds
