    Looking for best Haze/Pure Sativa

    Sorry haven't grown anything like that. My longest plant keeper was 13 weeks, and that's about as long as I care to go. I mean I would love to smoke some 20 week sativa, but I don't have the time/space to do them any kind of justice myself. 100 plants, I think you can find something worthy. I...

    Looking for best Haze/Pure Sativa

    There's a whole haze group of breeders at the beanbasement now (they used to be on icmag), but be warned, it's like a haze cult over there... Also check out Kwik Seeds/Real Seed Company https://kwikseeds.com/ or https://proseeds.co.uk/index.php/product-category/tropical-candy/madmac-haze/

    Looking for best Haze/Pure Sativa

    Problem with pure hazes is you have to grow a ton, and sift through the hay and grass phenos to find something special, and then the effect doesn't carry through to the progeny in a predictable way, so breeding with it is challenging to say the least. And that's probably why most breeders...

    Does the Northern Lights #5 from the 90’s still exist?

    Yeah your best bet is to do some hunting through seeds. Either a nice NL5 cross, or one of the various NL5 reproductions. Grow a ton, find and keep the one. Also mind you, most people's recollection of old school NL or NL5 is probably from Neville's seed stock, unless you were in the know in...

    Does the Northern Lights #5 from the 90’s still exist?

    It would be impossible to recreate at this point some 40 years later now. The plants and seed stock used then are now long gone. All we have left are remnants and fragments of them. Sure, you could use what's left of these lines and do a recreation, but it wouldn't be the same, and how close to...

    Stay away from ILGM!!!!!!!

    I'd remove this comment. Regardless of the poster's legal expertise, just having any link backs out there to comments like this can't be good. No one here wants that visibility. /my $.02

    og or kush

    Yeah I think I've read that common ancestry claim before. Who knows though right? I mean hell, any plant bred in the 80's was likely to have some ghani in it, since that was the overwhelming trend to shorten flower times. I've read lots of speculation over the years about what the actual...

    og or kush

    I don't know if you're talking about the dna sequencing places. I think the only thing we learned from that was there wasn't actually any chemdog in og kush, which is what people assumed for the longest time.

    Seed Verses Clone

    Some sativa suggestions. You can also reach out to AK Bean Brains directly via email (I forget it, but I'm sure someone on here can post it) He'll give you a long list and he's got all kinds of cool stuff and basically doubles your order with freebies. Here's some quick sativa finds on jbc...

    Seed Verses Clone

    In terms of variance in what you'll get, that all depends on the specific cross and is more phenotype (genetic makeup) than genotype (genetic potential affected by environment). Every cross will have a range of phenotypes. In a good F1, you should get a relatively low number of basic...

    Seed Verses Clone

    Those 60% indica / 40% sativa percentages are just nonsense mostly. Any seed bank marketing seeds that way is honestly trying to pull a fast one on customers that don't know any better. Truth is, anything they claim is 90% sativa or more is 99% a lie. First, they don't have an original cut from...

    Does gender matter by strain?

    What do you mean by you're not supposed to have a female plant of a genetic? Is someone gonna come and break your legs for having it?

    Is this a deficiency or anthocyanin production

    I believe this is a deficiency. I had a plant with the exact same issue, and I could never quite tell if it was just purping up, or a deficiency. But I lean toward deficiency because if that marooning of the margins spreads to the flowers, it can cause bud rot. I witnessed this first hand...

    How to read trichomes?

    I think for long flowering sativas trichomes are a good indicator. But anything in the typical 60-70 day range it doesn't tell you much, cept maybe if youre way early or way late

    The skinny on LED's please

    I wouldn't say much better. They will give you a better spread I think, but light is complicated and raising a board to a certain height could offer equal spread, depends on the situation, but either are good. I personally love my hlg boards and have no reason to switch to bars. You can always...

    Sour diesel

    He teamed up with someone to do some seed releases with recently. I think he's announced some of them on discord. Not sure if his sour is part of any of that, but he has an old sour cut that he talks up, and people seem hyped on.

    Black Triangle seems a hot topic these days. People finding bangers left and right. Must be people finally soaking these bodhi packs they've been holding

    The skinny on LED's please

    all the brands mentioned here, from the amazon brands (mars, spider, vipar) to hlg (diablo boards are goated imo). all can grow great dope. The technology is now the standard over HID because for most growers, the efficiency of LED vs HID makes it a no brainer. I say that with the caveat that...

    Blue dream

    I don't think there's ever been a fem release of the santa cruz blue dream that was truly representative of the clone. Not sure why that is, maybe it produces sterile flowers when reversed? No idea, but history sure shows it's never happened. Knock them or not, HSO's old releases of blue dream...
