Looking Good, have you found any distinct phenos in the western wizard?

I believe Gu stated before that the discontinued strains are just the bottom 50% sellers.Any word on why Lucky 7s is on discontinued list? Seems a can’t miss to me
If he isn't impressed by the Boom Town then he must have some true elite clones in his garden. I found two phenotypes out of 5 seeds.Interesting how is the smell on them?
It was never in stock and when it was restocked it'd be like 7 packs that disappeared in hours.I believe Gu stated before that the discontinued strains are just the bottom 50% sellers.
A lot of people that got real elites aren't impressed easily, it's hard to find an OG that stacks up to my white fire og it's probably the best OG ever made, yield, flavor, frost it's got it all, so when i'm running other OG's and chem crosses it's always a let down for me because i got a champion plant growing alongside. I know when i compare plants to strains like golden goat, wifi og, blue dream (santa cruz cut) and other rare cuts it's difficult for MANY crosses to stand up against them. Like i'm growing this skywarden from GPS, i bet a lot of people would think it's a keeper but to me it's a B quality strain since an A strain is an elite clone only type plant.If he isn't impressed by the Boom Town then he must have some true elite clones in his garden.

One was a heavy LVTK leaner in structure and aroma. Gassy, creamy, vanilla kush flavor all the way. During the cure, I would have sworn there were kush flavored marshmellows in those jars. The second phenotype was a balanced gal, taking on the structure of dad (the Stardawg) and incorporating all the funkiness he has to offer with the LVTK's more mellow, vanilla kush gas cake. Difficult to describe that phenotype's aroma -- earthy funk, lots of gas and lemon skunkiness underneath. Often times smells just like gassy/skunky coffee. Yield was great on both. 3 gallon cloth pots filled with cococoir, vegged plants from seed for roughly 6 weeks (think they were about 16 inches tall from base to tip) when flower was induced. 10 weeks for flower for sure. Any earlier would have been a huge mistake. Each plant offered up ~4 ounces of baggable buds, with roughly 1.5 ounces of popcorn and trim. Effects are potent and dreamy if overindulged. Definite day wreaker as the effects come on hard and fast.
All my people like the Boom Town over the Jelly Pie phenotypes I found. Flavor and effects were cited as the main reason. If you could hunt 10 packs of the Boom Town, I guarantee you'd find one of the best OG/Chem plants in existence.
Not all of us are lucky enough to have access to elite cuts. Seeds are our only option to build a genetic library.A lot of people that got real elites aren't impressed easily, it's hard to find an OG that stacks up to my white fire og it's probably the best OG ever made, yield, flavor, frost it's got it all, so when i'm running other OG's and chem crosses it's always a let down for me because i got a champion plant growing alongside.

I always tell new growers around here to grow some clones from the dispensary first so you know what a quality plant is, many people have no clue what a keeper really is because they have never grown an elite plant.
This.Not all of us are lucky enough to have access to elite cuts. Seeds are our only option to build a genetic library.
I use bx because I got bales for 20 bucks on sale. So I bought 6 bales. I know it doesnt have any nutes in it. I prefer that. Bc I run megacrop. I feed from day day 1 sprout. I feed every day. I couldn't pass up a sale like that. They were closing the store. And liquidating everything. That's why I bought it.It doesn't really matter if you go with medium or large perlite unless you have a consistent particle size.
All it does is take up space and decrease the amount of moisture a growing medium will actually hold.
I bet you'd get similar results by switching from BX to HP.
BTW, promix doesn't have squat for nutrients. A little cal-mag from the dolomite but that's about it.
This.
Imho every cross with an elite in it has the capability of being better than the cut itself. Sure it might take popping 200+ seeds to find it but generally they're in there.
I agree, every seed has the possibility of becoming an elite clone only type plant, however it does take many seeds to find the best, like @quiescent said you gonna need to run a few hundred and you may or may not find something good.Not all of us are lucky enough to have access to elite cuts.

Keep in mind it is a pure numbers game. If I hunt 20 seeds per flower run, in a year I can hunt through 100 seeds (regardless of ancestry). I'll find an elite cut eventually.I agree, every seed has the possibility of becoming an elite clone only type plant, however it does take many seeds to find the best, like @quiescent said you gonna need to run a few hundred and you may or may not find something good.
Only problem with that is, how do you know what an elite cut is if youve never grown one, not gonna lie i thought i knew what one was until i got a clone of golden goat. It changed my entire way of plant selection. Keepers are what you wanna keep but elite cuts are very rare.Keep in mind it is a pure numbers game.

I had been waiting in ck out and my clock synced to the auction and it had been working ,the last two times I did this I screwed my self because price didn't drop when i hit the button. Maybe I did something different idkwhat you need? you add it to cart. go ahead to check out.you can add riu or nugs in coupon code you can stop there in check out cause you everything done
now go back and wait till the price is what you will pay
I'm sure even if clones aren't accessible that USPS is delivering the same flowers to those of us here in prohibition land. Unless someone's totally unconnected and their grow is their only source there's a good chance all of us have come across elite flowers.Only problem with that is, how do you know what an elite cut is if youve never grown one, not gonna lie i thought i knew what one was until i got a clone of golden goat.

Could you give me a link to the auction site,It's a reverse auction. When seed packs are on auction, they start at regular price, say $89 for most of them. Then at timed intervals (20 minutes), the price drops by 10% of its current value, so $89 drops by $8.90 to $81.10, then by $8.11, so on and so forth.
There ya go. Just gotta watch the site and see what goes up.
I compare to incoming flower all the time it's a big curiosity of mine, sux living where I do. Probably no elite cuts within a thousand miles or more, love to have some , if not just for comparison.I'm sure even if clones aren't accessible that USPS is delivering the same flowers to those of us here in prohibition land.

Price is the throttle on sales velocity for a strain.It was never in stock and when it was restocked it'd be like 7 packs that disappeared in hours.
$20 for the big bales (3.8 cu ft) is a great deal, I would have bought it too!I use bx because I got bales for 20 bucks on sale. So I bought 6 bales. I know it doesnt have any nutes in it.

I have a few of Nspecta's F1 PCK in the vault.Those packs were given to me from csi. I didnt pay for them. So no I didnt research them. But you can bet your ass I research them before i pop any. I looked up all his phenos on the 91 chem before I popped them.
I got a shitload of sunshine mix #4 irrigation from home depot for 12$ per bale (3.8cu ft expandable to 5.5 cu ft) you ever used it? i used it outdoors this year shit worked great on my tomatoes im very tempted to try it indoors$20 for the big bales (3.8 cu ft) is a great deal, I would have bought it too!
