I was just about to look that up good looks! Want a safer way to store my beans than the drawer..
One more ? So the rice/seeds go in the freezer or the fridge?

Well I signed up for this website called the CannaCollective and the admin had these PurpleWreck x BlueMoonshine beans listed as freebies so I dropped him an email asking what I had to buy to get the freebies and he said "...give me your address and I'll just give em to you." So I did. Along with them came JTR x The White. I was shocked. Especially since I was not an active member there and had only registered 5 minutes prior. Soakin a couple those JTR ones now. Hope it's fire.

When's the dumbo drop skunkie?
Thats a good question... As far as i can tell there's no exact info yet...
Just Coming Soon...
Same thing with MendoMontage F2, Burgundy, ETC...
Stomper Bx will be next year now and the newer Burgundy & Sun Maiden are due out before Xmas in these coming weeks. Once I get a for sure date I'll pass it straight over to you guys/gals here.
Mendo Montage V2 is in testing atm and may need some more tweaking yet. A large numbers run is in order to see for sure and is ongoing atm.

Fresh off the block in January there's more grapey goodness coming out in the form of ~
Grape Stomper X Stomper OG
White Fire X Stomper OG

I'll have more info for you soon :weed:

I know I am many pages too late and no quotes but so far I am impressed with Alphakronik and Connoisseur. I cracked 2 Eaisbaer from Alpha and both turned out female and almost identical single cola females except 1 is a little taller than the other by maybe 3 inches and has 2 little tiny branches. Both were slow in veg and stretched 3 times in flower. Ialso cracked 1 Connoisseur GDP and this thing is growing like crazy and on the 2nd node after 2 days from seed. I am gonna veg it for about 6 weeks because they say it does not stretch much and needs a long veg.

Never heard of Canna Collective, it's cool you got free seeds from someone there. Did you give your address or a PO box - I'd get a PO box for stuff like that.
I just got some Jack from Delicious Seeds because they're doing a 15% off thing with Attitude. Which is like 6 pounds less whaattt, that makes a difference for me. It also applies to World of Seeds but I don't order from them, did anybody ever try them?
Delicious is known for their Sugar Black Rose and Cotton Candy which make good crosses for taste. Gonna order those next week since the special runs through Dec., and hopefully they'll make it in time to be stocking stuffers.

right this second i have tahoe og (cali connex) up against houston shoreline (clone only) in a smoke off.

shoreline by MILES & MILES.

pork & chops.

batmanskunk asked me about e$ko's c99 parentage.

e$ko related he got the f2 & f3 beans created from bros grimm stock as selected by a certain (very popular) canadian cultivator... they did an elite bean for elite bean swap ...so this canadian fellow did the selections for f2 & f3 bean batches, e$ko got lots of those beans & did his own selections. parentage is pure bros grimm stock nonetheless.

dizzle asked about the drop.

e$ko related that seeds are ready. might not get released if sannie doesnt give homie his own seed section on the website. dont forget you already buy his seeds in other ways when purchasing from other companies. and there's another shop some of us use that carries gear made by my dude. i cant say more than that till im sure the seeds are in stock. he told me they might not be available any way than over the counter at said shop too. like no outlet for the rest of us. i'd like to see him reposition himself in case something happens to the outlet we all know & love. behind the scenes huge investments are made & its a $ game. i've yet to see quality c99 like what's in e$ko's pocket.

outlets are everywhere. its biz. e$ko's looking out for his investment.

imma try and grab 20 to 40 from him... all fems (natural made no chems like sts) ...spread them around to the worthy.
^ believe it just like blueberry indica. i got plants in flower already ;-) & those seeds aint even hit shelves.

^ got a few to trade ...known peeps only so dont ask otherwise ;-)

he just scored a bunch of those plastic vials so im excited for my next delivery.

How short is short term? Couple of weeks? a Month? Longer?
Short term is anything you plan on poppin in the near future just keep them in air-tight containers however you keep them and in the fridge when not in use..
I keep what i know im gunna do for the next year or so in the fridge, what i might do i throw in there too just in case..
But if you know that your not going to be poppin them beans for a fact for Awhile... put em in the freezer.. (dont packem so you have to De-frost all of them just to get at one pack..)
It isnt good to de-frost seeds multiple times just to get out a few... Chances are if you packed em right, and put them in the freezer.. Well all be dead and somebody will be poppin our seeds...:blsmoke:

Got the confirmation that HighLife received my M.O. and BR is on its way.. They also reserved me a V3 which wont be in-stock for a lil while... 8)

*multiple years in the fridge is fine in this quote from '07 Shanti says he popped seeds from the fridge for 5 years and the germ rates were "very good".
"Hi All

well since I just sent some seed recently to a chap from 2002 stock that had been kept in a fridge all its life...and had very good germination levels I believe the methods of long term storage are as follows....

1. We keep 2 stocks of seeds, i for the everyday use and 1 for long term use.
2. Long term use means vacuum sealing the seed in small quantities in an air tight , moisture resistant plastic bag and kept in the freezer.
3. Short term use is keeping seeds dry in air tight containers, always put back in fridge when not in use.
4. Point about long term stock you cannot defreeze seed only one time and then keep it is the fridge stock, till it is used.

We have seeds from 30 or 40 years ago still in fridges and even if germination is lower it still pops up a few ...so it all works for us.

Be well all the best sb"

Someone was talking about the WW/BW last week.
Here is a great post from Shantibaba
http://www.thcfarmer.com/forums/f10/shantibaba-setting-record-straight-14972/

Here is cut/paste

In the late 90s I gave plants to Soma, and he began a seed company a year later too…mixing his skunks to my males. This has occurred many times to me just look at the Spanish seed companies and 10 years ago…none existed until I went there in 1995 and gave away 3 kilos of seed to growers via Canamo magazine…

GK I wonder if this where the double white come from?
That would explain DW being a super keeper.
