Updating my Jelly Pie and Doc Holidays: The plants are about 7 weeks from seed and about 18 days since first pistils. The tallest plant in the back is a Doc that is 31" tall today. These plants have been growing about 2 inches per day for the last 12 days. Hopefully they are almost done stretching.

From this morning:

These are under 3 quantum boards running 285 watts. The tallest colas are 9" below the light. If these keep growing, I will need to relocate my fan/filter to outside the cabinet since the lights are as high as they can go right now.

If you get the email then you should be g2g, hit the "read more about" button and once its live put ya 1 in your cart fill out the info and checkout. Sit back and wait for it to go live. Now.........With that said though, they do go quick. Last time I missed the Western Grail because it went live and crashed his site with so many hits! lol it literally took like seconds (all I can picture is piranhas, eating a dolphin!) and shit was gone

Comments from several breeders I follow suggest that it's common that people who sign up to be "testers" actually never show pics of their runs (if they run the seeds at all.) Rather than complain about it (which I have never seen Gu do) it seems like getting tester seeds of new greenpoint lines is really more like a race than an application process.
From the latest batch of new Wild West series gear, the first tester release was announced a day in advance. That resulted in so many hitting the site to try and snag one of the packs that it crashed it.
For the second release that happened today, Gu left the model the same rather than try and change human behavior, or somehow restrict the opportunity to get lucky, but he reduced the amount of advance notice time a LOT.
Honestly, I think that's what I would have done too.
I wish I had been logged into email or IG when the announcement came out today, because I didn't know it was happening till it was over. But I'm impressed by Gu's approach and glad to see things moving forward.
Assuming the load on the servers was safely in the green levels with today's 1 hour warning, it wouldn't surprise me to see Gu swing a bit wider on the next one as he aims for the sweet spot like always.
So . . .how do you become a tester? Turn on notifications for greenpoint's IG account on your phone, and sign up for the email list and check it all the time (especially on fridays.)

I wish @Gu~ would give a bit more notice for gold and diamond level customers, but besides that, it the law of the jungle.

Does anyone know if the Stardawg F2 is in fact Corey Haim cut x greenpoint's purple stardawg male?
The strain description seems to go out of it's way to not say what the female is.
Also, if you read this Gu: whoever is writing your strain descriptions now is screwing up the pedigree of tres dawg.
Tres Dawg is made with Chem D and afg #1, not Chem '91.
You used to have such great pedigree details but lately they have gone to crap.

I really wish some people would post real reviews of City Slicker on GPS website. I mean wtf is this??? "Have not had the chance to plant any yet but surely getting ready to ". 5 stars on that awesome review. Literally NONE of the reviews tell me if I want this in my seed vault or growing in my tent. I am sure there are other strains with equally unhelpful reviews, but that is a strain I do not have and the Gelato seems tempting to me.

I was interested in the F2s as well, but being a working man, I can't drop everything thing for the tester drop on a work day. Figured I would check them out this morning. I saw the jacked up price point and the description with incorrect info and promptly closed that tab out.

Pretty sure that seed tester email is just a marketing deal to let everyone know there is a drop coming. As many people as waiting on stuff, it seems and there is only 20-30 packs, the minute it goes live, usually bogs down the site, then poof they are gone. But if you read the email, it plainly states if you missed out on the testers, you can still order, lol. Seems a bit quick, wouldn't you think, lol, if you were actually gonna use testers for the info?! Im not really sure why anyone would want the Stardog f2's to be honest when you can get the corey cut fems from the same place, lol. And I most definitely don't want any purple pheno of chem anything, lmfao. I too laugh at some of the reviews, don't really care how the pkging looks or the seeds, lmfao, more interested in grows, but the way the reviews are set up, you can put a review up pronto, even if not grown yet, and for some reason many do. Seeds look good, lol, can't wait to grow, etc. read some of those reviews, it is kinda funny. Wished I was psychic enough to look at a pkg or a pile o beans and know how they are gonna turn out. lol

I've only grown out one. Certainly some purple influence in the bud. Very smooth smoke.
Mine was in a small pot, a little over a gallon. Coco peat with worm castings, added perlite. Megacrop plus some added liquid kelp. Almost No stretch on a 12/12 light schedule. This was the extra pot in my tiny tent. Planted last as a 'just in case' fill in, and ended up competing with four larger girls. I want to run one a little bigger.

I don't get the indica effect off this one. Great mid day strain that keeps me starting projects I won't finish when it gets cold. It's also pretty tasty.

The OBS you ran were impressive! You should slay this one.

How is she smelling? Great job on this one.

Smelling rubbery gassy slight skunk with a fruity back. Sounds strange but surely lovely. Dense and frosty. This was a straggler and a last minute throw in to fill a spot. Then I ditched the rest. Now kicking self in butt for that one. I lost my keeper pheno too in a shuffle of genetics so I will absolutely pop the last 4 or 5 seeds I still have of the pack. Very good smoke, great producer and pretty to look at.
