My drop to GLG has net been shipped yet due to the exact same things @Bad Dawg spoke of previously. I myself live in the NE and it has been seriously brutal here as far as weather goes. It was so cold here that our water system froze up , and we had the water faucets running!!! But when the temps drop to - 15 and the windchill is - 40-50 below zero...shit happens. The last thing I wanted was to send this this drop and it just sits outside in a shipping container waiting to be shipped. So I waited...the Useful drop will ship out on Monday.
Great Lakes Genetics Useful Seeds drop shipped this mornin as promised. :bigjoint:

@Useful Seeds
i don't see any Fems from you guys. anything coming down the pipe at a later date??

and could you describe the 1979 christmas tree bud? what's the origin? and what's it like?
There are some feminized offerings in the drop I shipped out yesterday. :bigjoint:

The Christmas Tree Bud is from NDNGUY, it is an IBL that is heavy indica and absolutely smells of pine/pine-sol cleaner. Very little stretch, and flowers in 8-9 weeks.

Well, my cash in envelope to GLG never arrived. It has been over 2 months now so I am assuming its "lost". It was tracked as entering the USA on 10th December so have given up on it now.

Pretty strange for a registered letter to not arrive, first time for me, but GLG assure me it has not arrived and I have no reason to doubt the guy. He also reckons his local post office is trustworthy and was not happy when I suggested maybe his PO was blown so it's a bit of a mystery.

Pretty bummed as I had snagged the only pack of @Useful Seeds GG4 S1s they had left. Ah well, you win some you lose some in this game but I think my days of cash in envelopes is over.

Thats really kind of you, thanks for the offer. Unfortunately, I am in Oz and it is a hassle to ship to this country so I wont take you up on it.

GLG have a good stealthy delivery method which is why I was using them.

And in this case the breeder was Oasis Genetics. And I pulled the strain because it was to old to sell.
I have pulled several older strains and will be giving them out as "Getting old freebies". Not as your normal freebie. But as a bonus freebie.I would rather give them away as to throw them away.
Did you know that all the remaining Bodhi Appy crosses are 8-9 years old? Bodhi ran the Appy male only a single time before he lost it on a trip.** All those packs of SSDD, Silver Mountain, etc... are just as old as those long gone packs of Lucky Charms and Blood Orange. I doubt Bodhi has even sold a pack less than two years old, it takes him forever to test and bless a cross and his backlog is massive. Maybe you are being too conservative...

I tried to be a hard ass and tell some breeders I would not make a order until they send me pics and descriptions. But It back firered. The other seed banks bought the gear and made the sales and me and my customers missed out on the gear.
That sucks. I guess the breeders have more business sense than I thought, still lazy though. The real problem is growers are shelling out good money for untested chucks with no pics or descriptions. Stop doing that! I know I'm a hypocrite because I have tons of Bodhi packs. There, I said it, Bodhi is a lazy chucker who doesn't supply pics or descriptions. He also collects, makes his own males, does some real breeding, preserves landraces, and is an awesome guy, all of which puts him miles ahead of almost every other guy in the business, so don't get me wrong.

My gear is documented up and down. Blame the consumer who accepts that crap. I stick to my beliefs but there is more money in random chucks.
People are lined up by the hundreds to buy random untested shit right here on these boards.

How bout some kylie jenner sour apple cake? It has fire grape phenos.

Lol

Really? I have now grown out 6 different Bodhi crosses after trying your GG shit. I’m so glad I tried your untested shit because it led me to some real fire and a real stand up organization.

How about some BX2 Special Hermie Tortured Shit? It has buds that grow out of the leaves, special self pollinating flowers, and you can get a whole 1/4 ounce from one huge plant!

You're the dude complaing you couldnt keep your dwc rez under 80 degrees and left it for weeks at a time. And hundreds of people who have grown gb will say you are wrong. You even posted it may be the most potent youve smoked lol.

Go check the 5 year thread ya hack.
Show me another cultivar with 5 years of development documented.
Ask all those still getting top dollar for their elbows in rec states. Your calling all those independant growers around the world liars spouting your crap.
You stalking me does nothing to affect me but carry on a few more years if you like.

OK, my GHS Bubba (feminized) hermied on me. All the clones and the flowering mom decided to go for it. I hate that. I guess it could be said that is the risk with feminized seeds, but still. SLH has been fine and seems to be a great plant. Bubba is going bye-bye.
With the HPS I was always up over 80 all summer, even higher.

I had a Goji that hermied next to the WP. Doesn’t really count and should not be on the list :)

I find his GB to be a very potent plant, but it produces like shit and is very prone to hermies. Yep, I grew it out, yep they all had balls (unlike the idiots here, who are SOO tough behind a keyboard, LOL.) Oh, and yea, I have NEVER had hermies in 30 plus years of growing indoors. Sorry, @DirtyEyeball696you fucking dope.

QUOTE="Tstat, post: 13765127, member: 216092"]Yea, it may just be my conditions are not right for this strain. But again, I was not disappointed with the quality, but as a med grower, I have a plant limit and if a plant isn't producing it's gone. These are gone from garden, replaced with some Bodhi crosses. I am forever looking for the elusive cut that produces and has high quality...[/QUOTE]

That said, I do like his Killer Queen Redux, which I am still growing. It's not as potent as the GB, but is a nice plant structurally and yields are decent.

Similar problem with your bohdi...maybe something you are doing ya cluck.

QUOTE="Tstat, post: 14262634, member: 216092"]I’ll just comment on Black Raz. Mine grew huge and vigorous, then produced less than an OZ of popcorn. Sticky popcorn that I haven’t tried yet, but this one will not get space in my room again.[/QUOTE]

I have recently noticed that the Kush is growing a little funny this time. The tops seem to be growing kind of "spindly" and I think the cobs might be too close. I also had to high PH that also could have caused this. Any suggestions?

When you can keep your room temps under 90, rez under 80 and know what your ph is running rdwc then you can call me out my name. Here is what gorilla bubble looks like when you arent snorting adderal. Fuck you very much and have a nice day.Gorilla-Bubble-BX2-600x450 (1).jpg

Thought this was a GLG thread ? I dont say much anymore for certain reasons,, but if not strictly pertaining to GLG''s conduct or lack there of (as a seed provider). I think bashing in either way or another is irrelevant. There be other threads to clog up for that I'd think. And no need for vulgar language, my kids read this as well as home gardener.

No need to make a Canna site so vulgar and aggressive. We all on same team and if not same team than in the same league I'd like to believe. Lets us not argue amongst each other, Plz, life to short for that.

Yes, please try and keep things upbeat and pleasant.
And discuss the plant we all love.

Much love.
