Idk why Gu~ is so reticent on sharing his thoughts on his ECSD S1 heritage, it would be nice to hear, but these seeds produce some extremely sour and nicely structured, resin encrusted flowers.

2 out of 4 so far are keeper worthy, albeit for different reasons.

Here’s my Greenpoint harvest of Texas Chem. I grew regs and had three females out of eight?
One taste super gold from the skunk and has some OG Chem taste. The other is less gold taste
and more OG Chem. One harvests in 12.5 weeks and the other was 9. Both grew tall but no stretch
in flower cycle. Grown organically in 5 gal air bucket. DA4E4B6D-B562-4D63-853A-260C2F480AEE.jpeg6DCE74A5-E2C9-4CF5-B6F5-D7F244ECC7C3.jpeg

Those were not even close to being ready to harvest ^^

They look about half way through flower.
I know it looks that way.
I have always harvested kind of late because of pistils being white still.
My hash was usually too dark.
I wanted to try and harvest on the early side this time.
There were amber resin, probably 20%.

Does anyone know about Greenpoint Catalina Wine Mixer or Banana Punch?
I have two BP that are growing. They are slow, sensitive and tall w/ no branching.
I have four CWM, two are tall, one med., and one small. They didn’t like topped, but are
still going. I thought the small one could be the Mendo Purp x skunk side? The tall ones
could be the Sunset Sherb side? From what I have read. A picture of the BP (top two).

The left one looks more sativa.
Any info on phenos you noticed, or stretch. Thanks
I’ll make a report later.

Search “white pistils” on.this thread, or “new pistils”.

Many Greenpoint have been known to make new white pistils even when the trichs are going more and more amber.

Trichs are what count, I like mostly cloudy trichs to be 80% or more. Amber at less than 20%. I simply don’t care about white pistils.

We are growing THC which is made in the trichs. We are not specifically growing pistils.

Dude, a plant is never 'ready' halfway through flower.... if your plant has amber trichomes halfway through flower something's not right....
Ultimately, i could care less, and you should do whatever makes you happy.... i'm just telling you- when a plant is half way through flower, which i CAN TELL just by looking at them, it is not an optimum time to be harvesting, whatever colour trichomes you want.

But you do you.

I grew four Texas Chems. Took them to 11-12 weeks. Was like 2 years ago but all except one kept throwing new pistols or most weren’t turning red or orange. Decided to harvest due to trichs. Was some awesome smoke. Lime soda, og flavor with skunky earthy nose.

Yes, some plants can indeed seem to throw out new pistils beyond the optimum harvest window, but those plants on the previous post were still taken much too early.... especially the first picture of the two.
It is basically all white pistils.... it hasn't even fattened up at all.

Dude just let it go. If someone chopped down their plants early so what? If he smoked whatever he got out of it at the end of the day and it made him happy, isn't that what it's all about? Maybe you could argue (and I would agree with you) that yes it's better to let plants fatten up well beyond their fourth of fifth week in flower or whatever it takes. I've had plants that were ready at 7 weeks, others, I had to chop down at 14 weeks and it was still too early because it was some exotic sativa. My point is that all of this back and forth of "you chopped your plants way too early" and "no they were ready because there were enough amber trichomes already" is futile.
I've noticed a lot of growers on this forum who pride themselves at growing amazing plants. They pride themselves on having a high degree of skill at all aspects of growing, and having their grow room perfectly "dialed in" - and that's great. But we all make mistakes, and mistakes can be made at each and every step of the process. I've had plants that I let grow to perfection, and then I messed up the cure and had buds that smelled like a moldy basement. Oh well .... life goes on.

BR :peace:

You may be correct that it's futile but i'm not trying to ruffle feathers or criticize, but i was the one to bring the subject up, so if that was taken the wrong way- sorry....

But i still stick to my point that those flowers weren't just pushing out late pistils.... the flowers was just halfway through their 'explosion'.

Harevst them whenever you want.

I agree I saw the pic you mentioned and they look like bud that got chopped week 4, week 5 max. Oh well :(

BR :peace:
Hey , to help clarify the plant was chopped at 12.5 weeks. It was a real slow bloomer. I thought about letting it go
longer because of the pistils. Also it had a ton of light so that wasn’t the case. It was probably the sativa because it taste
mexi. I grew a Haze #1 that was Mexican dominant and it finished in 13.5 weeks. I also grew a Jarillo (Mexican) and that took
around 18 weeks. I agree with a aBowlOfWhat? that it has a lime soda taste sometimes. It also has a bubblegum in there. I think both of the plants should just be hashed. I‘m kind of lazy though. I have an Ace Guawi that took 22 weeks or more to flower. And it is all ”beads” not buds.

I have only grown one other Greenpoint variety “Orange Blossom Special”. I had one female out of three. It smelled like garlic
in veg phase. I tried to transplant it and ripped the taproot. It ended up dying I had it growing for three months, so my loss.
I have Banana Punch and Catalina in veg at the moment. I figure another month of veg and they will be good to go.
