Definitely can't hurt to try man, you may even come out with something better!!
My grow is going well mate, my plants went back to flower last week so just waiting to find out the sexes. I'll post up some detailed pics over the wknd or monday night. They're all looking very nice though so far!
Yeah poor James had issues with his a/c or something so had to trash his plants due to landlord coming round, think he's back up now though.
be good to see how yours are coming along! sad about james's landlord, i think it shouldnt be allowed those landlord inspections....invasion of privacy

Yeah man, they're trucking along well, should turn out real nice!
Yeah wasn't much James could do, the a/c carked it so he had people coming round to fix it! Still, landlords can't just turn up...mine was doing it not long ago, I got stuck into him and haven't seen him since ha ha.

lol maybe the lord will keep away for awhile now?, those inspections really piss me off...just another human right of privacy that doesnt exist anymore,

Yeah I'd say he will mate, until something breaks anyway ha ha.
I must admit, he hasn't done a proper inspection in the 4 years I've lived here so I'm happy with that. I do agree though, inspections are an invasion of privacy!

recent test germination rate of 2016 pollen chuck out of 10 seeds per strain;
spliff ak48 - 10
cannaventure raspberry kush(purp pheno) - 2
GDP - 10
alphakronik jackpot royale - 9
mosca C99 - 4
thseeds mk ultra - 7
la plata labs DGOG - 8
sour diesel x chemdog x romulan - 10

of interest in the above germination rates - the ak48 despite obvious suffering from root rot disease during growth the resulting beans expressed most vigour during germination
the rasperry kush purp pheno feminized beans have shown very low vigour, possibly from incompatible gene combination?
surprising low germ rate for the C99 too?
but very happy with the germ rates of GDP, jackpot royale & DGOG, & these 3 will be served as mains in next seasons outdoor grow, SD x C x R is great but too stinky to have outside in general... ohhhh ok then...maybe just a few!

test germination rate of cannaventure raspberry kush cacao chocolate non purp pheno is 10 out of 10!, very glad to see this figure as these raspberry kush fems are the first feminized types ive pollinated, was not sure how they would go, disappointed in the low germ rate of the purp pheno but happy with cacao pheno's fertility , inspired now to dust burning bush nurseries key lime pie & sunset sherbert & CV pure animal fems with suitable donor male/s...come on summer!

thanks easty, looking forward to throwing some tiramisu, grandpas breath & meatbreath pollen on those sunset sherb, key lime pie & pure animal fems, hey hows the led grow going lately?
Nice!! They should be some wicked crosses! I'd be happy to test some out for you if you need :)
LED grow is going well man, transplanted the girls out the other day so they are rocketing along now.
Going to get the road kill skunk project going in the next few weeks, just waiting for a midweek song order to arrive!!

sounds good bro, which roadkill did you get?

I didn't buy any roadkill man, I'm trying my hand at recreating it from really old seeds. I've heard good things about KC Brains afghani so I'm throwing some into the mix to see if they are worthy of breeding with. Can't say if I'll find the roadkill due to low numbers, but we'll see. I'm also going to make a jack herer x skunk 1 cross too, Flowamasta's blew me away, I want to create something similar :)

man ive found some gems in kc's gear!, about 1999 when i first started ordering beans online from seedsdirect.to i was leery about sending much money to an unknown situation so my first few orders were cheapo's like kc brains stuff, cyber crystal, ,leda uno, mango & especially kc's haze special were really very good, the haze special made the most deadly outcrosses, we all get caught up in the hype of mainstream RIU popular banks like bodhi, ggg, RD etc for good reason, it IS fire gear, but its always good to have an open mind & be prepared to give some unknowns or non popular types an unbiased go as well, good fortune in your pheno hunt bro!

Absolutely bro, I'm also taking advice from a world renowned breeder that the afghani used in the road kill is from Sensi but KC brains has a very similar (and extremely stinky, resinous and potent) afghani. I'm never put off by lesser known or cheaper beans, they've done me well in the past.
So basically...I'm using Sensi and KC brains afghani and crossing it to some really old skunk 1 seeds that I was given some time ago that supposedly came from Sam's stock. Those and some 'shit' from Mr Nice. If I can find that really stinky male, I'm half way there.

sounds good, you have got it mapped out well, hope you find that elusive breeder, if a person keeps at it eventually that super rare pheno will appear then you can capture that gene combo :peace:

Here's hoping bro, hopefully I get lucky, then I can pass out to the masses that want it :)
good spirit man, exact opposite of many growers here, im happy to do the same though mine may have that root rot infection on the beans? dunno, recently got feedback from someone i gifted some seeds earlier this year who lives 30km away, his resulting crop from my beans showed the exact same disease symptoms as mine, his area never had any issues like my area before? dunno...

Yeah I don't see the point of hoarding a strain, if it's good and what people want, I'm happy to send it out! I'm no breeder, just want people to have good weed!!
I've actually heard similar things bro, a close friend had the same issue with beans he got from overseas, he never had issues prior to getting the beans and the guy he got them off had the exact issue! You would think that eventually, the strain would build immunity to it but if its systemic, they find it hard to adapt! The story of evolution my friend!!

man id be devasted if i passed on this loathsome disease present in my grow area to a friends uninfected area through infected seeds, after massive losses for 14yrs ive finally got some semblance of control with it but if it struck a person unawares its a true nightmare come alive

I dunno man, could be coincidental too, nature has a way of these things occuring when the time is right. If it keeps happening to your mate, just tell him to stop using the beans you gave him.
