Anyone else picked up snips from CW in the last 4-5 months or so? I ordered snips, took a few weeks to finally arrive and came littered in PM. They did admit it was an issue on what "facility" the cuts were from.. attempted to make it right by replacing the dirty cuts, but I ended up with new dirty cuts lol. I'm just going to do a hard reset in the garden and pop every bean i have in spite.. but damn I had high hopes. wondering if anyone has had a similar experience with CW snips?? Any good remedies to dip my cuts in an attempt to salvage any of this? I've had success in mediating the PM but it seems impossible to completely eradicate it.

Wettable sulfur is the only thing that eliminated PM for me.

Damn that sucks to hear. I'm still too cautious to go the Clone route. Some awful tempting cuts tho.

Male flowers from feminized seed… love it.
This karma 20/20 plant is throwing balls… my other Apple fritter x creamsicle 4 has side branches that are overtaking the tops. I fear if I take them out I will get almost no yield. Seems like another genetic oopsy. I tried Clearwater, and I am certainly over it. Unless the smoke turns out to be absolutely lit these growing issues are too much of a headache when you’re trying to fill jars for yourself and others.
The finished plant is another karma 2020 it is small and not that loud but looks good

This is just something that you have to deal with when running genetics from these big name places. The ownership of creating solid genetics is quickly going away as these types of businesses continue to grow. Now it is just on us to pop the seeds and hope for the best.

The thing about cuts is 9 outta 10 times I tr6 the flower and say THIE is what everyone is go8ng crazy about? Normally ends up being some mediocre smoke in most cases.
Yeah, I agree. I'm not really interested in any of type of stuff that most of these places are putting out. Once you've tried one of them you've basically tried them all. The high is almost always the same. its weed made basically for dispos. smells and looks pretty to move it out the door.

Yeah I've had some mixed results. More bad than good sadly. Every seed other than two have had all different issues. The two were vigorous and crazy growth I couldn't kill them if I wanted. Everything else mutated, stunted, died or just quit at life. But it's that one good one that keeps me running the gear I bought. Now I'm just culling plants to save my soil and nutes. Lotta money wasted for seedlings and plants to just stay 4 inches tall for 3weeks. People have said his old gear or stuff from a year or more was better. Sucks I missed that wave.

anyone tried any of their clones? was able to get a cut of the blue razz ($750)
typical IG weed, beautiful, sticky and a bland ass high. reminds me of pink runtz with less of a kick
i dont really understand what their pricing reflects cause it goes up to 1.2k for some of them

the mods aren't any help either "bro its dank midz"

it has to be good. they added the Z on the end. IMO the price is jacked up because it will be mostly commercial growers buying it to try and stay up with what is trending in the market. They don't really care what the end effect of the product will be, just that it moves off the shelves.

Both my ECSD x Mai Tai hermied in early flower, around 7 weeks. Full on herms at most of the nodes too, not just a few nanners.
Clearwater gear is the least stable I have seen in 10 years, and I have bought seeds from all over the place.

I only chose Clearwater because of his reputation as a breeder, but the seeds I got are not the work of a reputable breeder. They unfortunately were stunted and mutated and hermed.

If you thought ANY breeder that pollen chucks F1 hybrids of the latest hottest strains wad reputable I'm sorry that's on nobody but you.

I'm sick of seeing ppl complain about herms on F1 hybrids that were CLEARLY pollen chucked and not tested properly.

I'm not defending any of these breeders; but at the same time; do some research and it's easy to see what breeders are pollen chucking and what ones are working lines and breeding.

Anyway; I have the opposite experience it's my first time growing Clearwater- I'm growing Lime OG x Karmas Sour D.....it's been vigorous....it wreaks of Chem....and is a clear standout

interesting. i may have varying opinions on his work time to time but i will say its actually some of the most stable gear i've grown in the 'hype' category of strains. but that's just me.
