    you guys see strain hunters at the tude?

    As far as I can tell the "point" of strain hunters is mostly self-promotion, on the part of GHS (not that there necessarily is anything wrong with that). The fact is, most of the "exotic" landraces simply aren't suitable for either indoor or outdoor growing in most of the USA, and the best...

    Leaning Grape Puff

    Forgive me if this is a silly question, but what's so great about the Grape Puff? Is it the "grapiest"? Something else? I'm not skeptical, I just want to know.

    Best cashcroppers strain

    Sickmeds just dropped a new shipment last week, and as of this posting, they're available right now, at least at this place, and probably others shortly: http://www.seeddepot.nl/cannabis-seeds/sickmeds-seeds/william-s-wonder.html

    Sickmeds William's Wonder: grow journal. review and all things Wiliams Wonder

    Those look great; super short and bushy. FWIW, all the ones I grew looked similar. IIRC, there are already test reports of this posted on at least one British grow site, and in summary, I think they said it improved the flavor on Williams Wonder a bit and reduced the "couchlock" without...

    Best cashcroppers strain

    You could say that. . .the biggest cola weighed about 1/2 an ounce dried and trimmed by itself, which is not bad for a plant that's only 24 inches tall. Note that the weight here is more than it looks because the buds are super-dense. The colas are so heavy, the side ones will go...

    Best cashcroppers strain

    I agree with everything you said there, except for the last statement. Even assuming a novice grower, without a dialed in room, some strains will simply outperform others. IE, strain DOES still matter, and in my opinion, a beginner trying to grow commercially will still do better with a "cash...

    Phenos.

    I understand what you're asking for and why; I'm telling you its not going to happen. With the possible exceptions of MTF and maybe g13 (both of which are practically "mythical" strains) I don't think any of the strains you mentioned are inbred lines; all of them are unstable hybrids that...

    Phenos.

    How can anyone "prove" that genetics are legit? Sort of DNA sequence analysis (of which a proper comparison would be unavailable, and would be cost-prohibitive at this time, even if it were), I don't think there is any objective way to do this. Even if you're familiar with a given strain, I...

    Gypsy Nirvana

    If he's not a US citizen and his business wasn't conducted in the USA, he shouldn't owe US taxes, and I'm not sure how the Feds can make a case for tax evasion, let alone a criminal one. On "racketeering", a full discussion on that is way beyond my ability, but my understanding is that the...

    Gypsy Nirvana

    You'd have to read the text of the actual indictment to know what was meant there, but FWIW, under US Federal law, viable ce-eds are considered "mari-juana". It was "conspiracy". Again hard to know what that means without reading the actual indictment. Maybe it just meant he knew that...

    Phenos.

    An S1 is a plant crossed with itself. Take a female plant, force it to make male flowers using colloidal silver or another similar agent, then use the self-created pollen to fertilize either the same plant or a clone. Its, in effect, a sexual cross of a plant with itself. This isn't quite...

    Gypsy Nirvana

    I agree, but it looks like its more than just selling ceeds: Don't know how hard/easy its going to be to make these "conspiracy" charges stick, but it sounds like they wanted this guy pretty bad. He's also been indicted for money laundering, and that particular charge could be a tough one to...

    Grapes?!?!?!

    There are any number of strains known for "grape" flavor and/or color. "Grape Ape" is an old CA standby that has a grape-like flavor. Maybe that's what you have. Or maybe not. Impossible to know from just a name. . . If you really want to know the genetic pedigree of what you have, go...

    strains with high % of purple phenos

    Sickmeds Bizarre ("ultraviolet") is another one purpose-bred for color. Its ((Black Rose x Double Purple Doja) x Black Rose)) x (Double Sour Diesel "Pinkeye" pheno). So that's basically two super-purple lines crossed with a potent pink one, and it will throw off purple and pink phenos...

    Phenos.

    Well, this is a whole other topic, but if you really want to grow "the smoke of legend", I'd argue that what you want are legitimate clones of these famous plants. In some cases these are difficult to get (supposedly "real" cuts of ECSD are tightly held), but in some cases anyone with a card...

    Phenos.

    I think seedfinder is the most comprehensive database of its type out there. They do have a beta list for known phenos, though its not present for every strain, nor can I comment on how reliable it is.

    Phenos.

    The quick answer is that most or all of these lines you're buying from GT are self-pollinated or lightly worked versions of famous "clone only" lines. As such they should be expected to throw off different phenos. How different these phenos will be from each other depends on the line in...

    Phenos.

    Doubt it. So far as I know, there is no "pheno" database. Not exactly sure how you would create one anyway. If you're interested in particular strains, its probably better to solicit opinions on them (and phenos) from those who have grown them. I think I understand what you're asking...

    Phenos.

    It does make sense, and the answer is that it depends on the line in question. With some lines, there are recognized "name" phenos that people may look for. For example, with Serious Se-eds famous AK47, people talk about a "cherry" pheno that's desirable. How frequent this particular pheno...

    Phenos.

    The term "phenotype" has a very specific scientific/genetic meaning; its been listed above. But trying to avoid the scientific/genetic talk and making this as simple as possible, when people are talking about "phenos" with respect to cannabis plants, they just mean particular plant...
