I also did "SuperSherb" (your freebie). It was nice but took an extremely long time to finish indoors. You might want to take that into account outdoors.

As much as I love it (multiple packs over the years) Black Cherry Punch can also have mold issues. One of the phenos that I have seen a few times grows large pink fluffy buds and they always went rotten on me. The dark purple punch-leaning phenos were very mold resistant however, as were the spicy green ones.
If you get that pink one, keep a close eye on it. You will know early because it grows buds that are about 3 times the size of the others.
Good to know thanks will keep a eye out. that sucks cause pink phenos are so pretty

This may be more of a general discussion type question than inhouse particularly, but they fit in this question too I guess.

why do we as consumers of these expensive packs have to“pheno hunt” to get the plant on the picture? To get those “picture perfect colas”? Why doesn’t the breeder take that gem plant, and work on it, stabilize it. I hate popping expensive beans and getting some stupid leafy pheno, or a “purple” and getting a green pheno. Etc. F4s, F5s, why aren’t we as homegrowers seeking these? I personally don’t have the room or legality to have 87 plants trying to pheno hunt. One reason I’ve been looking into just getting clones. Let someone else spend all that time finding that pheno....

edit of 5-7 trichopath grows I’ve seen, only one of them looked desirable to me and that makes me frustrated. I paid 240 dollars for this pack. I only want the good tricopath. Not leafy shit.

There are a lot of people seeking stable genetics. Unfortunately more people chase hype names so it is FAR more profitable for most breeders to just chuck pollen at hype strains and then move on. It takes a lot of time to work a line with no guarantee it'll sell or that someone like copycat wont just S1 it after you've done all that work lol. F1s can also be good for someone who wants to really hunt for something special to them. Personally I wouldn't pay a super high price for an F1 for the reason you speak of though.

If you don't like hunting through F1s then search out worked lines and be more choosy which seeds you buy. Clones are good too but also have potential drawbacks. They could have pests/disease and over time clones can be less vigorous. Also people who pheno hunt look for what they like, which may or may not be what you are looking for.

Thank you for this information. I appreciate it. With all this being said, does inhouse have any worked lines?

I have noticed that most of the photos I see on IG are sharpened or otherwise post-processed and may not be an accurate representation of the product offered. There is no regulation in this industry, so anything goes. It pays to do research, as with anything.

Any one have a favorite seed bank to buy in house gear from?
When can I get the best deals on IH gear?
Personally, I like Heavily Connected out of Arizona for IHG. The site is a little budget but the guy himself is always easy to contact and sometimes has been quite generous with freebies. Rocky Mountain is decent too.

Psh. I spent over 500 bucks with heavily connected and will never do business with ever again. Rocky seems cool. As does terpy but someone was complaining the other day terpy is BS

I personally don't care about a flashy site . Allot do but I dont. That Auctually seems a huge part in popular seed vendors . Flashy packs. I love Mr nice and Humboldt csi. Both of there sites are pretty low tech. I had some one complain about Mr nice website to me one time about how 90s it looks. Just goes to show what marketing does.
Thanks for the info I'll look at those vendors.

Hmmm. Maybe I got lucky. Maybe not such a consistent place if I got double freebies and you got none. That was my experience with Neptune the last time that I ordered from them. No freebies on a multiple order of IHG.

Pointless update:

3 freebies of "Tart Pops" looking good in veg. Very stinky already. I am starting to wish that I bought a proper pack of them :(

If anyone has finished the OGKB V2.1 what are the terps like on it?

Im asking because they’re saying the MacDaddy gives off dirty gym bag terps and I was wondering if that’s coming from the Mac1 or the OGKB V2.1.

The Banana Macs I ran, none of them faves off dirty funk terps.

Also some crappy pics of I think day 53, two different Truth Serum phenos. They’re a little goofy looking this run but I really like them.... More than the Bananacanes

Havent been on in awhile. Popped some slurricane 23x12(pictured), some ogkb v2.1, colt 45. And now about to pop 2 of each of these 9 to try for my first selection on breeding.
Pop a trichopath and we will compare. I’m only about two weeks into veg.
