So far there was a 4/4 germ rate on the Wedding Cake x Dojo and the Flo x Dojo. I had 25 freebie fade to blacks accumulated so i tried popping those and got a 3/10 germ with 1/3 that sprouted and its pretty runted and messed up looking compared to everything else. I use the ol' paper towel method and it honestly gets 100% germ rates across the board usually except in now 2 cases. so im gonna keep popping through the rest of the Fade to Black and see if they are all just bunked somehow or if it was just the first 2 packs. Not a loss really cus they were freebies with the other ACTUAL Big Worm genetics im tryna really grow. I in no way want seed replacements. Big Worm you already hooked it up once and i have plenty of stock piled genetics from you and other breeders (just dont wanna sound whiny and like im trying to get shit). But the other varieties are doing good. they look like clear sisters again which is good for a more standardized grow. leaf development and lateral growth are equal.
Also the Purple Wipeout (that im keeping around for now), while not purple at all lol, sure is fucking frosty and terpy. I am personally not the biggest fan of the exact terp profile but its for sure one of if not the smelliest ive grown in a WHILE and its suuuuuper fucking sticky. Like if i poke it once my finger is just sticky AF. Smells kinda like industrial grade cleaner with a hint of berry. The other Purple wipeout that im not keeping has an amazing bud structure like out of an advanced nutrients advertisement, however it has virtually zero smell and i could man handle it and my hands wont be sticky; though it is clearly got frost to it.
so in conclusion the gear is good to a degree but i equate it really to a lotto thats more in your favor than not, but it still feels like a lotto. I would 8/10 still recommend Big Worm gear to friends and upstarts.
P.S. my outside Bigworm plants that were the OGs from seed all got jacked by someone. I assume kids but who TF knows. Was a shame because the one that produced all the terps and resin inside was like 6-7ft tall outside and the jackasses jacked it first week of flower!!! and they came and got the other one the last week of flower!!! so i cant give results on the outside development other than not very bug resistant because i had hella bugs but they were so effing huge. leaves and stems purples in the cold as well. sorry if this was long i have a long study break at school and am super into documenting this type of stuff so others get a solid feel for the breeder and what they are buying.
