If that were true bloodwreck is on the chopping block, just following the dioxide line of thinking. Good thing I have a 5 pack of Timewreck, Chernobyl, and Qrazy Train, been waiting to sprout those bitches!
Idk if there is bad blood there and are just saving face publicly but they are no longer affiliated that is for sure.
Sorry Kine not trying to take over your thread with TGA banter, he does have a whole sub forum for this lol.

That looks awesome..

What pheno is that? I'm just trying to figure mine out. Day 35 and one smells like cherries. The other 2 smell like feet.. I just want to know which pheno is which. I want the big yielder one. Alot of people are anxious for the pink pheno. I get asked about it all the time..
This is the one that is full of cherry/candy smells. Really pleasing smells. And a good yielder, too.

The feety ones are the "kushy" phenos, according to a description I read by Subcool about it...I've never run the "kushy" one.
I had quite a bit of difficulty germinating PB beans, and this one was the only one that took of the lot.

From what sub was saying, the pink pheno isnt actually the best pheno...it just has the colouring that everyone is hopped up on. Sub prefers the pheno I'm growing out, of the three, due to the smells/tastes.

Sub said that making Plushberry and Ace of Spades took much longer than any other strain they make due to the Black Cherry Soda mother. He also mentioned that PB wasn't very medicinal compared to other strain that they could be making. So by dropping those two strains from production he's making room for more potent crosses.
Now that is what Sub is saying publically, but I think there is another underlying issue that led to this decision. Dioxide brought BCS into Sub's stable of mothers, and Sub and Dioxide are currently on the outs with one another. So Sub maybe dropping BCS as a way of getting rid of some old memories, too.
PB wasnt very "medicinal"...as in, it doesnt have any/much CBD in it? I'm a little confused by that explanation, too. Its a good relaxing strain. I joke that this strain is akin to having a few drinks, and getting that chatty/happy glow-on. While its not my daytime go-to (I do use CBD-rich strains most of the time), its a nice strain to pull out after a long day dealing with douchenozzles at work.

I think you're prob right on the call of getting rid of old memories.

I think Sub meant Plushberry is not very medicinal in the sense that it is considered the weakest/lightest smoke in his arsenal of strains. I've never had it, but that seems to be the general consensus.

now I'm more confused. I have the same pheno you do. And the other.

from tga site

Two main varieties occur the smaller dreading pink phenotype is my favorite. The larger more Indica dominant phenotype is the heavy yielder

I read there are 3 main phenos, the pinky one (small yielder), the heavy-ish yielding cherry/candy smell-a-supreme pheno, and the kushy pheno.

I also read that Subcool preferred the super smelly one to the pinkish one. From what I've read, the pink pheno is the least potent of the phenotypes, and is all about the colouring.

Sorry if I missed it but...which led seems to throw off more heat? (the little that it has) and what about fan noise?
The Apollo has more fan noise, from its 4 fans, than the XGS does with its 2 (larger) fans.

I dont notice any difference in heat, by hand. I'm going to put my thermometer on each side for a bit and see if I can see any differences. Not sure if thats the best way, but we'll see.
