like my 41zlushies. Since day 28 veg. Reaked of fuel. Pure gas station shoes with golfball rock solid flowers. Heavy “tacky” resin production early on. Means great for washing. Now that’s a keeper.
Who was this by? I’m looking for gassy too. Got a bag seed from some excellent Sour Power growing…hoping to see a little ECSD genetics, grapefruit and fuel. I’ll know in a couple weeks

Which gassy strains are HSC known for? Blueberry Cupcake? Lol
Their Garlic Budder I've grown definitely has had the nice spicy garlicky chem smell you expect from a GMO cross. Made our eyes water to trim; it's not the OG-style gas smell, but it's nowhere near sweet or fruity.PXL_20210919_013916837 (1).jpg


Crazy how sticky the bigfoot glue is, and I can see how it earned the name.
It's supposed to be a GG#4 backcross so hey, good to see viable GG#4 seeds on the market, I know Tony Green's did an inbred line as well.

Jelly is a fast finisher and pretty mold resistant. Had an issue with caterpillars near the end, but noticed it right away and only lost a few grams or so. BT knocked them down.
Mostly my experience too, but I do think it's a fast strain that's maybe not as fast as they claim, I was kind of progressively harvesting plants when I grew a bunch of them two summers ago, and I think the ones that ran closer to 8 weeks did benefit a bit.

Garlic Budder sounds interesting. Regarding GG#4, any way to identify the original 2009 cut from Josey? AFAIK it’s not a very smelly strain, I‘ve had it a few years ago but don’t remember what it smelled or tasted like, I usually go for sativas.

I’m 40 days in with Hella Jelly, stigma just starting to turn orange here and there. I transitioned slow so guess I should start checking trichs soon. I have two phenos, both sweet like candy but definitely different terp profiles. I even think I’m getting some earthy black pepper behind the candy from one of them.

WE'VE. GOT. BUSH. :lol: :lol: :lol: Collie Man Kush redemption run is underway. My last PBB seed hasn't popped yet, but i remember it took me and my dad almost the whole seedpack to get three healthy plants (seeds may have been stored improperly or are just old) and admittedly I'm not not much of anything to help an old seed germ, just using my standard method.

All Gas OG in no way shape or form was anything OG kush …. Short squat plants that smell like purple kush with gas… no OG anywhere in the multiple packs I ran… they have garbage genetics …. Any clone from the major retailers are better
Lol. Yeah. Gassy burnt rubber was not what I was expecting. However. Old growth og is a good og.

I am quite happy with my 1st run of HSC strains this year. All were pretty good in my swamp boxes. Notorious THC, Bigfoot Glue, Pistachio, Squirt were all real nice. Lemongrass had a PM issue that I battled all year, Blueberry Muffin really didn't like the swamp much, but turned out OK. Humboldt Dream took forever to start budding and finish.
So far, Pistschio has been everyone's favorite, my Aunt and her Bike club love it and can't get enough.
Humboldt Dream will be coming out of the Cannatrol Sunday afternoon just in time for football and the NASCAR Championship race. Really looking forward to trying this one, as it has a very unique smell, kinda like a sweet, burnt rubber. I will definitely run another series next year in the swamp, will probably add Hibiscus to the list, and definitely run Pistschio, Bigfoot, and Notorious THC again.

Has anyone ever got a pheno of Hella Jelly (Jelly Rancher) that has a bit of an armpit funk to it? I haven’t harvested yet so not sure if it will come out like that after drying…hopefully it stays… it’s sorta like bitter grapefruit rind with some B.O. Not a huge blast in the face but it’s definitely there.

I assume there’s usually 4 - 5 phenos of these seeds right? Maybe more for certain strains?

I have not heard of a musty pheno yet. That’s interesting. You got pics? That’s pretty cool!

I’ll get some pics up when lights come on. Musty would be a good word… someone else thought it smelled like ”garbage” lol. But I got more musty armpit with bitter citrus rind. It’s day 49 of flower.
