hey man that ac/dcXa11g is clocking in 20-1 cbd - thc great cuts to be found ..
The following is just to help save money by deciding which plants to have tested, instead of having to test every plant and paying 50 bucks or so each plant...you can use the following method to figure out which ones need to be lab tested. This method is also very good for people who do not have access to lab testing.

This method gets tweeked here and there over time....currently working on tweeking it to pre test male plants.

--------------

Pheno seedz' CBD test method

------------

1.5 ml micro centrifuge vial (snap top)
0.08 gram lye
Tiny roach sized "pinch" of plant material.
1ml of 50% iso rubbing alcohol (although 70% can be used)
1 tiny Carbon pellet (sold at pet stores in fish dept)

--------------

Do the following in this exact order.

Add 0.08 grams of lye to vial, add plant material, add carbon pellet (on top of plant material to get better visability of color change), add rubbing alcohol as close to top of vial as possible (about 1ml). Close vial securely and shake for 60 seconds (making sure lye is not stuck to bottom..give few light taps if lye is stuck), wait 10 minutes and shake another 60 seconds, after 10 more minutes the color reaction should be ready.

Green = 0%
Yellow = 0-3%
Orange = 3-5%
Maroon with slight purple = 5-8%
Light purple = 8-12%

--------------

LYE safety should be researched and understood before trying the testing.

DO NOT add over 0.08 gram lye as the more you add then the hotter the chemical reaction will be and you can get burned, 0.08 is the most sensitive amount for percent testing (under 0.08 and you may not get any color reaction)....I burned my finger when I tried 1.5 gram of lye.

You should try to use dense samples over fluffy samples (fluffy samples do not react as good).

You should perform the test 3 times to each plant...using the highest percent as final result. Taking a pinch from different buds or different areas of a bud.

Wash hands often and make sure to wash work area after, cover work area in paper towels or paper in order to better clean up after.

Purple Nitrile gloves are better suited than latex gloves when dealing with lye.

As extra pre caution you can wrap toilet paper or something around the vial during the shaking process.

Drain cleaners can not be used instead of actual lye (drain cleaners add dye to the lye).

Thought that I'd post the email I got this AM from Great Lake Genetics...


So, a couple of questions...

1. Has anyone ever seen a link between LED growing and hermaphrodism before?
2. In another thread (in LED lighting section) it was commented,



which does seem like a logical conclusion... but I thought that Bodhi has a good rep!

Hello from Great Lakes Genetics *** IMPORTANT NOTICE ***
*** IMPORTANT NOTICE ***


BOBHI Seeds has asked me to make this announcement in regards to the Hybrid Freebie “Purple Urkel x Snow Lotus”. Although it has been tested, it was recently brought to our attention that it may show some hermi traits under LED lighting. So we are advising this strain be grown Out Doors or indoors with caution!!!!!!!

If you have a order pending and would like to change your Freebie pick please send me a message from the message board on your order.

If you have already received a pack of these, you can send them back and I will give you a replacement pack.

BODHI Seeds and Greatlakes Genetics are very sorry for any inconvenience this may have caused. Your satisfaction is very important to us.

Thank you for understanding.

ITS NOT CRAP GENETICS. At all. They r freebies because these crosses.were considered less likely to produce the quality strain that othwr crosses may have already proven to produce.

I tested blueberry snow... 4/10 females 0 herm 2 keepers
Geisel x appy(Wolf Pack) were all killer 8/12 females

Pics are on ig/stax, but report is only on stax.
Wish I didn't get warnings for this site or I'd post here 2.

not sure what else you are looking for ?

hermi behavior in a strain is inherited, its in the genetics. Under various environmental conditions a plant which has hermi tendencies in its genome may or may not sprout flowers of the opposite sex. While its possible that various marginal lighting may trigger the display of hermi traits, its not the fault of the light its in the genes.

Its the fault of the breeder to propagate hermi traits AND give it to people even though they know it should be trashed.


As far as Bhodi rep goes, they apparently feel that the strain despite hermi tendencies is GOOD enough for their customers. Just because its a freebie isn't an excuse. Personally I'd be embarrASSED.
