Thanks hellraizer. I took some pics yesterday but my camera was really pissing me off so I haven't even looked at my shots yet. I'm pretty sure I got exactly none of the burgs. I was so mad at that damn thing my forehead was sweatin.

Well I'm sure if untested/undocumented strains/beans were just pulled off the shelves.. all of a sudden *Poof* 80% of the product being sold then dissapears.. people would have something else to complain about. I could care less that we get the chance to buy shit that's untested, I run untested shit all the time. I know the chances of buying "shit" is gonna be higher.. but I like the selection. My only gripe is the price. It just isn't practical to stabilize everything if you're a breeder trying to make a living making cash. That is mostly their priorities, not you being able to pop 10 seeds and get 6 keepers. It is what it is. We are lucky in this day and age to have access to everything we do and its all thanks to technology, nothing else. I personally am very happy with the way things are.. probably because I get free shit all the time.. but also because I can grow more plants than most people. So whatever.

Another thing. Sub's exact words... "t I don't consider myself a educated breeder as much as I do a collector of Elite genetics"

So he isnt some self proclaimed ganja God. He's got some killer keepers himself but he isn't and doesnt claim to be some master breeder. I like TGA cuz usually.. most of the time you grow a pack and do find something special. But its not going to be every single time from every single strain. These are plants and they are unpredictable. I expect exact and to the letter results when I buy a piece of consumer electronics, or computer gear. I expect variety and surprise when I pop a pack of seeds.

Chernobyl is dank as fuck tho.

it would be nice if 80% of untested/undocumented strains/beans get takeing off the self,but that is a whole other subject.

i was not talking about subcool,that is to anybody who takes that title,its not hard to take "your" prize cut,and hit that with "your" super male,6-8 weeks later,collect them beans,let them beans dry,for a few weeks(no rush).pop 24 beans,do want to bite off more than one can handel,send a few packs out to some testers,things happen with testers,so expect worse,and hope for the best.
i too have tga running at the moment,mostly due to a lot of herm reports,and i was like c'mon man,his stuff can not be that bad,so i "pay" for a few beans,and will find out soon.

spacebomb is some very nice smoke too,but i seen nanners on it too.

Any Dinafem lovers around? ..I know there's a lot of hate out there for the feminized seeds but I really like everything I've had from Dinafem so far (CRITICAL +, Moby Dick & their "OG.")

Fuck yea me too. I'm gonna do Venom OG for sure next.. and since I might end up with some RD beans soon possibly a couple of the unreleased surprises. But if I had to choose Trainwreck Willie, GhostTrain#1 and #9, Karma Bitch, Cougar Piss, and Scotts OG.

Was thinking about picking up a 500wBlackstar LED and just sayin Fuck it to the Badboy T5s.
WeJuana gets some nice results with his Blackstar in his test thread. It's only money right? & since I haven't spent a boatload on seeds this year, probably only about $300... I can justify it.

Having two 900w Blackstars running would be the shit. But that's alot of Cash.

Also, are there any "mommy" plant collectors around? I find this just as fun/interesting as seed collecting. It saves $$$ as well :D...

I actually popped two dinafem white widow beans. I wanted to make sure that seedlings could survive in my room after my bout with pm,before I popped the dirty Sanchez. They both popped,survived and are doing really well.
Batman I don't know a ton about those LEDs but I've heard great things about them for vegging. But man I really love my t5s. Stuff does so well under them. And they're way cheap.
Hang on I'll snap a pic of my seedlings and throw it up here.

Yea well a better name for the thread would have been Genetic Collectors.. I give ya that for sure..

Unrelated...

Fish emulsion fucking stinks!!! fucking bleh.. gross shit. literally I guess. I am coming to see that I am underfeeding during my experiment using the Lucas method. I was scared of those high numbers so I upped the feed a bit and am trying to negate my mistake by using the fish fertilizer. Hopefully I won't fuck this up. lol.

Bubba Kush x Deep Purple fucking rocks. & so does Immortal Flower. Janja aka Supernatural is a cool dude with some cool shit.
Definitely ... as a kite.

Yea I know I'd do well with the Badboy. But I want the LED anyway for clones/seedlings. I just do. I think they're mad cool if you buy the right one.. just for that application tho. Virtually no heat. I could run it anywhere.

Yes but F1's are not new breeds (I'll go back to bubblegum simon and th seeds did not event a strain they just stabilized a strain). It's true that if you find the right combo they will be stable and uniform, F1's are not a true breed, meaning that if you cross them the resulting strain will be unstable with several pheno's thus annoying growers and breeders a like, i.e. TGA strains. In the case of TGA really doesn't make any new breeds, their beans just produce pheno's, some like the mom, some like the dad, you would have to find that rare pheno that isn't like either mom or dad and stabilize it to make a new breed.

Hahaha it's not a drink carrier. Go to one of those candle stores,like a Yankee candle or bath and body and ask for the candle holders that the candles come shipped in. They are sweet. No more spilt cups.

And that's what you notice?!!ass. I put that up so u can see my seedlings.

haha. I couldnt help it. I like to idea. I hate it cuz sometimes I drop the cups when I water or move the container its a sweet idea.
but yea the plants look good too lol. I can't wait to pop some seeds. I took a shit ton of cuts the other day. I hope I have a good Chernobyl pheno. I'm gonna veg out these cuts and slice and dice a bunch more up just in case. If not I have a shit ton of [blood wreck x] seeds now. Timewreck is going to be fantastic I just know it.

anyone ever had these little tiny off white hard shelled things on there stems of their growing plants? They seem like they dont move and can be crushed easily if u apply pressure with your nail. They are proly about the size of a pin tip maybe smaller. Are they a concern? how do you get rid of them?
