Yeah, I'm excited to see how the Greenpoint stuff turns out too. If I have some extra funds by Black Friday I'll snatch up some Copper Chems and some other stuff too.
I used to grow outdoors. I grow greenhouse now. How about you? What island are you on?

That Golden Tiger is supposed to be da killahz though. I'd like to grow it someday. Maybe I'll throw a couple out in the bush or something. The flowering time is too long for my rotation otherwise I'd consider growing them myself. Green Harvest (the helicopter eradication program here) doesn't even check the gulches or bush/jungle anymore. They just fly around and harass medical card holders, which is kind of lame since we're growing legally. It's probably a great time to be a guerrilla grower though, ha ha.
It gets pretty hot where you're at?
I've seen some Aussie grown sativas and they looked like they love it there. How's the Mexican and Colombian's? I've grew out two Mexican strains last winter from Jalisco. They were really enjoyable. One was a good sativa with an upbeat high and a nice smell. I don't really remember what it smelled like, but I remember I liked it. The other was nice too, but I liked the first one more. I've got some vintage Acupulco Gold too from Bodhi. I've only seen one person grow it out, but he said it was exactly how he remembered A.G. from back in the day.
That Blue Afgoo should be really good I'd guess and the CJH too. I don't think I've ever heard of Friction.
Yeah the golden tiger is very strong. I only put seeds in late as other plants started to flower . I couldn't get it to Finnish but I got some seeds off it. It stopped flowering about 4 weeks early and started to die .didn't like the cold.gets very hot here in summer. Its close to the ocean so its very humid as well. The Mexican and Columbian Sativa's go crazy in the heat. They won't start flowering for another 12 to 13 weeks. So they will be over 11 foot before the stretch. I've got about 20 Columbian x skunk plants about 2 foot tall now so they will get huge by harvest. Rippers are more worrying then police helicopters here.there to lazy to drive out bush the police are.

I think you are right on the in-law pricing. Retired NYC cop drives it down each month. Chance to see his kids and grandkids.
This past year I grew a lot of shit/skunk crosses. Afghani X Sh/Sk, Triangle Kush Cookies X Nightcap X Sh/Sk, Triangle Kush Cookies X Nightcap X Sinmint X Sh/Sk and Skunk X Sh/Sk. {I've named this series of strains Poly Shunk} I made crosses with all of them, as well as my Ass Cheese {Donkey Kong X Cindy's Blue Cheese}, Gorille de Raisin {Donkey Kong X Grapish BS}, Powernap X Sinmint Cookies X Ass Cheese, and PN X SMC X GdR. I'm running all those crosses, as well as some of my BIL's strain, CP1 and Too Slow, both sativa dom hybrids.
Almost forgot the Blue Shiva X Blue Shark crosses. I had a good male and crossed it with both AC and PN X SMC X AC.
So here is the list, the best I can remember:
AC
PN X SMC X AC
BS X BS X PN X SMC X AC
BS X BS X AC
GdR
PN X SMC X G dR
CP1 IBL
Too Slow {CP1 X Slo2}
B&S X CP1
Poly Shunk 1 IBL {TKC X PN X Sh/Sk}
Poly Shunk 1 X Skunk Shunk {Sk X Sh/Sk}
Shunk AF {Af X Sh/Sk} X PN X SMC X GdR
PN X SMC X GdR X Poly Shunk 1.5 {TKC X NC X SM X Sh/Sk}
Hope you can get through all the abbreviations.
I have some strains with bag seed genetics mixed in too. I think I have some Big & Stinky{bag seed male} X CP1, as well as a couple of PN X SMC X B&S X CP1 going.
A buddy gifted me some Lost River gear, so I have a few Eeyore, Big Buddha and Tatoonie Dreams going as well. But I killed two LR males this week. I have one more that is ready to release pollen any day, so it is a short timer too.
And two Tray Jumpers. lol

Looks like I got 2 female coppers and 2 fem Garlixs. Man one of the Coppers has a weird chemical unnatural for plants smell to it. I have grown a lot of different weed in the past but have never smelt shit like that. Then again this is the first chem strain I have grown. I'm on the garden isle and do both lights and outdoors. Where you at man?

I guess you would be missing out on variety. I'm guessing you're kind of perpetually harvesting? Have you ever done any swamp grows over there? I saw a guy do a swamp grow somewhere before and it seemed like it worked out pretty good for him. He didn't have to worry about rippers anyway. Apparently people don't like walking through a bunch of waist deep stagnant water. He put his plants on islands in the swamp and at least after some point I believe he said he wouldn't have to water them anymore since the roots would grow deep enough to hit the water saturated dirt. The things we have to go through just to get some weed, ha ha!

I'm on Maui. There's at least a couple guys from each island that stop by here somewhat regularly. Except Molokai. There was one guy that would post sometimes from there and I'm not sure if anybody has ever posted in this thread that lived on Lanai or Niihau (I know that's probably a given to not even have to mention). There was another guy posting from Kauai also a little while back with a very nice outdoor grow and a nice greenhouse too.
What's electricity run over there? Last I looked on Maui I think it was 0.38/kWh. I'd imagine Kauai is even more, but maybe not.
@SensiPuff said virtually the same thing about the Copper Chems just today

I guess it's not even optional anymore to get some of those, ha ha!

Here's the info from Greenpoint:
Genetics: Chem DD F2 x Star Dawg
CHEM D - 43.75%
SOUR DIESEL - 25%
CHEM 4 - 25%
AFGHANI - 6.25%
The famous garlic bud is resurrected in Garlix. A cross of LemonHoko's Chem DD F2 and Stardawg, Garlix is guaranteed to encompass all the best of the most offensive aromas in cannabis.
LemonHoko's Chem DD F2 is a cross of Rezdog's Sour Diesel inbred line and Chemdog D. One would expect pungently skunky aromas of gasoline and diesel as well as body odor and dark, dank, basement. Here's what Lemonhoko has to say about it:
”This all started with Rezdogs creation when he crossed the famous Chemdog D to his Sour Diesel IBL male back in 2007 - 08....One that shows up about 30% of the time, is the famous Garlic pheno. She usually will lean a bit more towards the Indica/Kush type of profile and easy to spot either through plant structure or scent....you cant go wrong and you will see why this strain rides high in my stables and one I consider a rare and elite keeper. Depending on your veg time and your pruning and cropping skills, this strain can produce very respectable yields.”
Our Stardawg male adds to the gnarly funk of Chem DD, further rearranging the Chemdog genes. Garlix will exhibit phenotypes smelling like garlic, body odor, diesel fumes, roadkill skunk, mildewy carpet, and other funky aromas. Her fragrance is not her only strong point, due to the Stardawg influence. Stardawg brings up the yields and vigor of Chem DD, without bringing down potency, fragrance, or bag appeal. Once you smell this plant, you'll never want to let her go!

That's too bad about the GT, but everything else sounds rad. I have no doubt Colombian Skunks would get HUGE.
The cops don't repel from the helicopters there? That's what they do here. They'll send a couple guys down and they cut everything and then bundle it up and take the buds to their cousin's/uncle's/auntie's/braddah's house and then take the rubbish back to the heliport, ha ha! That's only half joking. There's been a ton of times the cops have done some shady stuff like that. I've got plenty of stories about the cops here and their "enforcement" involving scheduled substances. I'm not complaining really either because when they tax you they don't bust you and I'd take getting taxed over getting busted any day.
They also used to have a hose they'd lower down and spray some herbicide on plants they found, but they don't really do that anymore. I saw them flying around with it earlier this year or later last year and that was the first time I saw them cruising around with it in a long time; probably like 15 years or so. I forgot they even had that herbicide hose. What's harvest time Down Under? Around March or April?

Haha . never heard of the hose. Down hear they just pull em out take some selfies and burn them. Harvest time here is march April .but i have Sativa's so it will be about may for me. Plus I have a shitload of autos growing out bush. So surprised with autos just give them a bit of good soil and they love the outdoors.

Yea, no doubt. I kid my buddy's lady when we smoke. I tell her there will be a quiz at the end, and she has to name the strain we smoked. Too damn hard for me to remember, and I've been living with these Shit/Skunk strains for about a year now. That is why I came up with the Poly {many} Shunk {Shit/Skunk} handle. That led to Poly Shunk 1, Poly Shunk 1.5, Shunk AF and Skunk Shunk. I have more crosses I didn't grow, so there will be more when I get around to growing them.Ha ha hah ahahahaha hah ha! That is a lot of abbreviations
Last year was my first fall/winter/spring grow. I harvested in fall, winter and spring. I ran into re-veg problems with the spring crop, so I don't think I will plant anymore for this year. So even with the Sativa's I should be done by the end of February. Won't have a harvest then until the full season's are ready. I want to get my hands on some really early stuff, or semiautomatics, so I can get another harvest in late summer.
When I was younger, and everyone still had access to 1000's of acres of timber land, I did grow in creek bottoms and such. But not in any open water type swamps. This past year I looked into some swamp growing, but the swamp I had access too didn't have enough light, and like you said, you have to wade each way. I was going to put in a small camp if it had turned out, so I would have an excuse to be back there, but it was just more trouble than it was worth.
I did grow in some marshy land this year. The plan was to wait til late to pop seeds, so the plants would not get big. But I had a few out early, and I ended up putting some of them there because the holes were ready. They got big early and the damn county helo found and chopped them. There were others out in the brush in the same marsh that didn't get found, but I stayed away until harvest time. Non-optimal. I need to re-use those holes for my fall/winter grow. Good spots don't grow on trees. Maybe they won't be looking in the winter anyway.

@rikdabrick i got the garlic breath from labyrinth he's an underground distributor for thug pug. A crazy strain to say the least. All the thug pug strains are insane looking just search through instagram and see. Looking at getting one of the last packs of peanut butter breath as well.

That's good to hear about the autos. I've heard there's some good ones nowadays. I have my doubts I'll ever order any since most any non-tropical sativa will start flowering here pretty quick, but it's good to know anyway. I grew a couple autos that I got for freebies maybe 5 years ago and they were the cutest little plants ever, ha ha! They probably got about 10" tall and probably produced between an 1/8 and a 1/4 of flowers. I haven't looked into them much since then. The cool thing about that is I could probably plant 1000 of them around the yard in the taller grass and Green Harvest would probably not notice a single one of them, ha ha!

I like the name Poly Shunk. It's catchy and applicable, ha ha!
You could probably plant autos for springtime harvest too. And I'd guess from the ruderalis genes they could be tough outdoor plants.
And I'd also guess choppers wouldn't be flying around there in the winter. They don't fly here in the winter anyway.
That top picture in the swamp looks like it could be decent. And taking down a few trees could fix the sunlight issue. I wouldn't want to be romping through a swamp, but it's probably a pretty safe spot to grow.

Thanks for the info sourchunks. I've read good stuff about Thug Pug. There's really too many good seedmakers around nowadays, ha ha! I'd need at least a couple acres to grow out all the strains I want to grow out. I'm sure I'm not the only one with that problem, ha ha!

I did cut a few trees back there when I was looking around. But I was going to grow with a buddy, and he didn't act like he was into it, so I never got back there again. The swamp is behind his work, so without him, I can't really get in and out.
I don't think local LEOS know about spring crops. Or there is just so few of them here, it's not worth the trouble. I've never run autos, but would not mind crossing some with photos.
