That's funny. We were just talking about that. East and I both always hold back some of the pack. Odin is a full pack guy. lol

Weed, women, beer, food, it's all the same. You gotta get them all in a room, the first one you go to is your "main bitch".

It would drive me nuts (OCD) to pop a few, become partial to one, only to find another gem in the next pop. I'd be torn between the two, or even 3. No, I get them together and find the main bitch(es).

Keep in mind, this is only my 3'rd "bean pop". I was all about clones since "the beginning of time". First run was an expirement. A few of my own "abominations" before the introduction of my first order. I'm having fun with this/got the space.

Also needed consideration... I'm pretty faded right now. I'm on the grill (thighs n Mignon), ate oysters with Corona's, had the last of the "Mystery", and sippin' down a Straffe Hendrik 11 (11% Belgian Quad). Feelin' pretty good. :blsmoke:

Keep us posted on both. Shot glass to paper towel or shot glass to soil

My first bean pop I went "shotty 2 Earth", "shotty 2 Rapid Rooters", "shotty 2 Soil Mix", and "shotty 2 paper towel". The "shotty 2 paper towel" ended up as "shotty 2 paper towel 2 soil mix" and those did the best. So, that's what I'm sticking with.

I plan on letting everyone know the story behind all my bean purchases and pops. No bias, no bs.

How long have you been popping beans?
I use to get clones first, because in my neck of the woods it was always easy.

Then I got seedpacks. For a bit of time I was popping whole packs and then, I lost a garden. After losing a whole garden I said I wish I never threw out the similar phenos and said better to pop 7 seeds and save 5.

Also when doing seed runs it's about 4-8 strains at time.

Good luck..

Btw the Tres Sister beans I said I was going to run where from saved seeds. JJ hasn't remade this one again and Im glad I have them still.

I'm in Southern CA, clones everywhere and I know a good number of people. The problem with clones... where do I start?

It's sad, no one takes care of their "young" and/or they're not handing out the "cream of the crop", you're getting the shitties that are hanging on to life. 99% of the time the strain is not what they claim/believe it to be. PM, every fucking time. Mites, every fucking time. Mites aren't really an issue, PM can be dealt with, but the last strain of PM was something not of this Earth. This PM was the product of E20 (and other fungicides) abuse. It would not die, zombie apocalypse type shit.

After years of strain hunting, I had 8 keepers (lost a few along the way) out of hundreds, probably thousands, of strains. I've kept my beans over the years, have a thousand, or so (most from a light cycle change with my Mystery). Looked into quality fire beans (the reason I came out of the woodwork and joined RIU) and wanted to pop a few of my own as a practice run. I told my sister in law about my bean popping endeavor and she reminded me of some fire Animal Cookies she'd gotten (when I was "dry"), said she had kept the seeds she found (because it was "so good"), offered them to me. I found some really special girls in there.

Anyhow, that was last year, new to the bean scene, but I like it. :bigjoint:

Popping the whole pack + is cool for pheno hunts. From my experience when having a lot of females in one pack there's a lot of different pheno's. I rather see them all at once. If I hadn't of seen this one killer funky lemon lime skunk pheno that was 1 out of 7 females, I wouldn't of been interested in growing out the rest if I had saved some seeds.

On the flip side when you have to scrap grows or whatever it sucks not having what you lost. For me that was the last of the Animal Face & I had 2 females :wall: lol!
