But I have to ask, seed, or legit clone? Seed isn't "legit", and even clone implies innumerable variables.

"Guy" grows, what is alleged to be, GG4/GSC. Says it's bunk, you find out it was seed. Ditch the prospect of "GG4/GSC", or dig further for the legit shit?

I have my shovel in hand.



Props to those who are contributing knowledge/personal experience. It's much appreciated and relevant to "the cause". No disrespect intended.

If my "Labyrinth" experience differs, I'll be sure to share. Much love. bongsmilie
Peyote Purple was never passed around as a clone only from my understanding it was a s1 of Bubba which Bubba who knows but I guess you can say the s1 selection is the clone only but the seeds I believe they were supposed to be fems s2 but they spit males out so they sell them as regs. I've heard all the same tho not potent very pretty and super frosty not Reggie either tho lol but I never heard of it as a elite clone only tho that's just me tho

thanks for the input bro, I'll pinch them off and see what happens next. Not sure i can do the 20 plus thing without changing the schedule on my whole room, but if he goes back to normal i'll remember/try. I have had this happen before with a grease monkey male, also have had the lowers on Kimbo girls start to flower in veg, but thought it was b/c they were so thick the lowers were practically in the dark. I would say it's definitely something coming from the starfighter side since this not the first time, and everyone had starfighter genes. Kinda sucks b/c i have had my eye on this one for a while, he was my favorite.
Im new here I'm normally on IC mag but ive been looking to sww if anybodys had the same issues with the cube as me. It seems you have. I popped 5 cube seeds 4 weeks ago there no more than 10 cm tall and two are showing serious male reproductive organs far too early20161223_131213.jpg I run my veg room at 20/4 and I've got 2 lots of other seedlings with no issues.

Thanks for stopping in, looks like you caught your's earlier than me. Besides the clusters i posted up top, i had two more at the next node down hanging like it was going into full flower. I pinched them all off, and we'll see what happens next. Out of the 5 i popped, this is the only one...so far. Have you grown other strains by exotic? I had this happen once before with a grease monkey male, and i just trashed it. This one i'm going to keep around for the time being, and see what happens.

This is my first exotic strain tbh. I was looking round his strains and the cube became available so I picked it up thinking guaranteed breeding potential but if this is happening so early I don't think that's the case. It does seem isolated to males so far. Have you seen any female pre flowers yet? How long have yours been vegging buddy?

Mine are at like 40 days give or take....since sprouting out of the rooter. I have one other one that is looking a little weird where topped, but need to give it a few days to see what develops. Other than that the rest look pretty healthy, and fairly uniform so far....they are in different areas in relation to the light source, so node spacing might be a little different, but they are still too small for any major differences to be popping out.

I'm no pro, but by no means am I a novice anymore. Here is my recent experience.

11 Trap start- exotic genetix
11 Adonis- exotic genetix
6 White cookies- relentless genetics
6 White pie- relentless genetics
12 Emlers glue- relentless genetics

Everything has been Herming. I'm on no band wagon, and I've tried them both inside and outside. I thought when I first saw the herms outside, something must if stressed em (even though I had 6 other personal strains finish herm free) so I put the clone I took in veg into my indoor room. HERMED AGAIN, even though I have everything dialed in near perfect.

Part of me thinks it has something to do with the strain called "the white" which was used in all those crosses except trap start. Probably not good for breeding but it's REALLY good for the hype train I bought into.

I recently popped "the cube" by exotic genetix and am hoping to not find and herms, though that could explain why some people get herms with his strains. Most of them are crossed to Starfighter aka the cube.

I don't know enough about either of the breeders to judge them, but my experience with the gear they provide hasn't been a good one.. I'm gonna make sure to do research like I used to before I buy into "missing out on this amazing strain" I'm probably just gonna stick to my own seed that I breed. Those strains have been Hermie free and SUPER GAS.
I've ran a lot of their stuff the only time I've had hermies from exotic have been on my part mostly and was right after I built my new room and found I had a light leak. The other was from me stressing the other out. Other than that I've had very good luck. It's sucks you've had issues but check your environment.

I have several other strains in the same tent with no issues. Environment is looking good. It's a shame but I'm 99.9% it's the beans.

If it's making sacs on 18/6 it's very possible it's autoflower but it very well could be stress induced flowering too from topping. Try running it under 20+ light see if sacs appear. Would've thought it was preflowers it it wasn't so small and at the top of the plant but sounds like autoflower to me but try him under longer veg hours see if that works. I hear this is the problem Archive is having with Dosidos which is why he isn't breeding with a male from that cross but yea don't give up on that yet. You don't see auto in photoperiod much it happens but not a lot if the clone does this he had to go don't want autoflower traits passed along to offspring
It's my first time running regular seeds peronally. I normally run fem.
Are the plants more prone to hermie under extreme conditions like 24/0? I've always vegged like this, the only difference i've noticed with these seeds i'm running (Blue Steels- Cube x OG Blueberry)is that the stems are quite more red. Temps are 75-84F at the highest under a 600hps. I've had blueberries in the past the get red stems early in veg. not sure if i should look into 20/4 photoperiod instead for regular seeds.

Before I made my exotic purchases I have heard wonderful things. It's so funny that now that I have gotten them I have been hearing and reading bad reviews but I will still have faith. I have 2 black mambas going into flower currently and both are looking indica dominant. One thing I like about them is that they were fast veggers and not a lot of space in between internodes. Also they they weren't too finicky at all. I am hoping for a mint chocolate leaning pheno!

I also have some Labyrinth seedlings that I am super stoked for. See what had me excited was the picture that went along with the purchase, I mean complete snow covered plant but after hearing about the purple peyote and it's potency, I am little troubled. I am hoping it's cross with the cube will increase it's strength. But overall they're small and by the looks of it 4/5 look indica dominant and the other looks a little strange but nonetheless going strong. I will keep an update on both strains. Keep up the good work everyone.

@kingzt I'm not concerned about the potency. I was reading about the different phenos. Read enough touting heavy potency. One is all Bubba, chocolate coffee musk, another is kinda sweet pungent fruity. So, there's definitely some variation there. Mike (Exotic) either got a clone of THE PP, or would have picked out a solid pheno for breeding.

@akhiymjames The seeds are all S1's from that hunted pheno, rare purple potent pheno that stuck out as special. The S1's, from the sound of it, are hit and miss, probably same as the results of that breeding project, too much variation, the reason for the S1's and not Reg's.

Funny how these threads veer off in a different direction. I am a huge fan of Exotic, and this thread is full of fire(plenty of pics in here to back up that statement). It's safe to say you have nothing to worry about. When @Odin* compared the peyote purple cross to pure starfighter, I had to ask why. As a fan of the starfighter, I figured i was missing something, but it seems what i was missing is that @Odin* is a fan of the bubba, so this is basically a ford vs chevy debate. Both strains will produce fire, and both will produce garbage, it's all about the odds leaning towards fire. I grow exotic b/c I feel confident the odds are in my favor. Exact same reason I have packs of archive, sin city, thug pug, relentless, topdawg, etc, i like my odds.

Where'd you get thug pug genetic's seeds? i'm trying to get a hold of their meat breath and peanutbutter breath.
ps- any1 know of a strain that smells like anything like peanutbutter? i love strains with unique smells/taste. i once had some weed that smelt like rootbeer!
