Put some males outside to watch and see if they look ok and maybe chuck with. Just in one gal pots, sitting outside not getting fed or anything. 1670D862-46BB-4826-8039-5C5B29E157A8.jpegDADD9483-0FD4-4291-A613-0104BC45E79C.jpegThis one has some frost and even some faint terps so if I can, I’ll chuck it to some females inside. It’s bright moments x sour grapes

After my failure to reverse Tropic Heat plant, I'm setting up a 2x2 tent just to flower out males & reversals. Got extra clones & lights so why not, seems easier having the pollen ahead of time verses having the male plants in with flowering females. Might just end up with a pollen collection along with my seed collection lol

Yup,GSOG will always have interest for sure...
I myself did not like GSOG till it got into that bx realm.
@SCJedi i agree with Genuity. There will always be some people interested in the genetics, but GGG has fallen off a lot. These days it seems like grape pie, grape gas, etc have taken over the desire for grape terps. You are talking about a year worth of selections if you are lucky just to get the proper bx of one pheno you possess(I’m thinking small scale, someone who can hold at least 40 phenos indefinitely). You would probably be better off going the f2 route and hitting your male to the females you acquired and calling it a day while grape is still popular.

Do you recall what you didn't like about it and what you liked more about the BX?
Mostly education & experience on my part..
I had no reasons behind buying GSOG,other than looking for grape.
But after growing it,which took me to testing for them,to growing out cuts of most of the GSOG bx & such... thats when I found some really nice fresh grape jam type smells & flavors.

The high on the regular GSOG was very bland/dull.

Ha, thank you for the feedback! I can handle a pretty large number of phenos. I'm also NOT looking specifically for grape but if that is what happens, so be it. I hit my Colombian x GDP with the Grape Stomper OG male and got very strong artificial grape reports from three testers so far. I think the comment that came through today was " it’s crazy lol really like you dipped your fingers in some grape children’s Tylenol or something."

Okie dokie, I guess I am glad they were a gift! I'm not holding out high hopes for these two phenos of Divine Image but if he kept them he kept them for a reason. I know a lot about my male after kicking his ass for a year and flowering him out a couple of times now . I am still learning more and more as tester reports come back through. This may really turn out best as an outcross & backcross than a backcross to something indirectly related like Divine Image.

I appreciate your replies and feedback!

Here’s my first attempt at pollen collecting and chucking. Of 5 seeds grown of Hunza Valley 91 (Skelly “Puck” HP x Chemdog91 bx3) from Lucky Dog, I had 1 really outstanding smelly male that I had to keep and breed with.

Of 4 seeds popped of Booty from Bhodi (Pirate Sweat (Vintage Black Afghani x 88g13hp) x 88g13hp) all 4 were male.

Have 1 really great strong smelling Booty that is densely stacked with male flower clusters that had zero stretch. I’m assuming that’d be a hp leaner. It seems slower to mature and release pollen than the others. Excited to play with this pollen.

The other 3 are all pretty tall but good structure. Might be some of the most vigorously growing/rooting lines I’ve grown yet. Assuming they’re showing pretty strong heirloom afghani characteristics vs hp; thoughts? I think the pollen from these are worth hanging on to anyways.

I’ve been periodically collecting the pollen in jars with a big desiccant pack. Gonna give them another handful of days or so and see how much it looks like they have left before chop and proper storage. I have rooted cuts of all too, just in case.

I happened to have a spare nice White Russian, plus a very frosty and tasty pheno of Lemongrass (Lemon Kush x Gelato) laying around so I figured I’d throw them into the room for a real party. I put them basically underneath the Hunza, but they may have a few seeds from the others too, who knows. Win win in my book.

I intend to do some more specific projects with this pollen and I’m excited to see how the female Hunzas turn out. They look gorgeous and one girl #5 is really starting to smell strong, like burning grapefruit, onions, and rubber from a tennis ball.. So that has my attention.

The best female HV91 will get some of the male’s goods and then I’ll have what, an inbred line? No lie, I think I’m more excited for these seeds than those in my most recent seed purchase that is full of goodies; just something about making them yourself and seeing what comes out. Can’t wait!

Hope to find some nice fruit terps in here one day
(Seedsman WhiteWidow X Bodhi Banana Spliff)
View attachment 4905053
The seeds are a bit on the smaller side, like the seed the mother (Seedsman WhiteWidow) came from.

cheers :peace:

How is that White Widow from Seedsman I have a few freebie fem seeds & I've never ran WW before. Been popping random freebies like Barney's Blue Cheese

It's quite nice actually. Smell is fruity, or like some kind of carnival candy and a bit gassy as well. Very resinous. I'd say its very close to White Widow I grew 10 years ago that came from Dutch Passion. I like it. :bigjoint:
