Hey Joe, you ever flower out that Pistachio yet? Hembra is giving them out as freebies right now.Nice, I'm running two of the lemongrass myself in a little winter pheno hunt, I've got a 3 pistachio, 3 Vanilla Creme Pie, 2 blueberry cupcake, 2 lemongrass, 2 Hi-biscus, and 2 raspberry parfait mixed in with some of the Mephisto autos I'm running for a repro/to make crosses. I'm not in a huge rush to veg them and I want to piggyback on the 18-6 cycle I'm running for the autos to veg the photos.

Let me know when your getting down the stretch in flower if you think about it. Really interested in what hibiscus and blueberry cupcake both sound worthwhile with wedding cake and zkittles mixes not to mention and they must have been pulling overtime because all this new stuff is S-1, IBX3, everything is IBL at least so everything should be pretty dang uniform. The hibiscus looks like a good looking plant.Hey Joe, you ever flower out that Pistachio yet? Hembra is giving them out as freebies right now.
Dont label them as scammers, because FIRE can be found in their lines (especially Blueberry Muffin)....but stay away from things that dont sound legit....for instance, I believe their trainwreck isnt real trainwreck and things of that nature. But BBM is legit, ive heard Strawberry Cheesecake is good too.I am very glad for this thread. Have been reading about Humboldt Seed Company on a magazine called Growing Marijuana Perfectly. They even have one on the beautiful girl who is the daughter of the company founder. The articles make it seem like this company's seeds & strains are perfect and amazing. But in this thread and elsewhere (growers I know who have grown their strains), there are problems with hermies, runts, not enough cultivation info on their website for each strain, low yield, inaccurate flowering times, and they say the strains have Sativa effects but many of them don't, and the strains they say are Sativa effects come from Indica genetics, which makes no sense. I appreciate all of you sharing photos and info. These days, with so many scammer seed companies, the only way to know for sure before buying a strain is to see what other growers are getting from it.
Thanks for the details. I don't know if they are scammers, but a lot of companies are, as you say, they may have some fire, but also some garbage. Reading the articles on them where they say they have 100 percent genetic guarantees and such, I assume every thing they sell is gonna be fire, but sadly, from what I see here, that is not the case. I am financially challenged and can't afford to buy seeds that are anything other than fire, so I hope more people will weigh in on this, and again, thank you!!!!Dont label them as scammers, because FIRE can be found in their lines (especially Blueberry Muffin)....but stay away from things that dont sound legit....for instance, I believe their trainwreck isnt real trainwreck and things of that nature.

Just like any other breeder these days, they've got a lot of garbage, but a few classics as well.
Might wanna check out Hazeman Seeds....i believe $50/pack at dcse....definitely some awesome strains he has.....and his freebies are dope too....ive got 15 seeds of Blue Dream x Stardawg as freebies....i NEVER run freebies, but those i will eventually!Thanks for the details.

All of my stuff is still vegging, I'm running less lighting than I would for a full-scale grow at half-power (since the autos finished) because I'm going to take them out of the tent to flower them in the early spring (probably mid-january so that they have time to finish before the end of march). I want to be able to cut clones before I take them out to flower and when they finish I'll run the clones from whatever was best. If I had run more lighting and transplanted more aggressively out of the 2-gallon bags I started the seedlings in, they could definitely have been further along, but I've been very busy and taken a hands-off approach.Hey Joe, you ever flower out that Pistachio yet?

Speaking of scammers stay away from crop Kings my first seeds for purchase online from Canada and it was the shittiest plants I'd have ever seen also ethos have good seeds but I've had them herm on me a few times especially the Grape Diamonds R-2s.

Wow, had never visited DCSE and they got a bunch of seed makers never heard of, other than DJ Short. Thanks! Looked up Hazeman and saw photos of their Elephant Stomper that made me drool. Also found this review of Hazeman:Might wanna check out Hazeman Seeds....i believe $50/pack at dcse....definitely some awesome strains he has.....and his freebies are dope too....ive got 15 seeds of Blue Dream x Stardawg as freebies....i NEVER run freebies, but those i will eventually!
thanks for the update and from what you say and what those articles say, the penningtons are really Kind people who do much good. when i look at the HSC catalogue it looks like he has terps that nobody else makes, lol.Her name is Haley Pennington, she's not just good looks but next generation of Humboldt County. The family is a great part of the story Humboldt has to tell also a major driver of the legalization push. Her father has led the drive to clean up the streams and rivers of the Humboldt area. Breeding wise the stems are not as heavy as some would like but the 3 or 4 I've grown out were fine just pulled 3 strains out and some great odors came out the grow. Most of the lines or S1 self One X and back crosses ibx 3 also just ibl's damn bread lines so everything should be stable and comprable incise smells vigor all that stuff I just think the stems could be a little stronger
You're not the only person to warn about Crop King. Their website is flashy but apparently they sell blanks.Speaking of scammers stay away from crop Kings my first seeds for purchase online from Canada and it was the shittiest plants I'd have ever seen also ethos have good seeds but I've had them herm on me a few times especially the Grape Diamonds R-2s.

All their gear is new territory for me, I though they were Humboldt Seed Organization based out in Spain. Ordered from Hembra but of a different breeders seeds for $45 + the 3 fem Pistachio freebies, was a good deal! It does seem like HSC is putting in work by doing large pheno counts & working the lines a bit. Definitely want to check out more of their gear, they have a large selection which overwhelmed me a bit. I'm satisfied with the freebies for now lol.Let me know when your getting down the stretch in flower if you think about it.

No worries. Sounds like you have you hands full as do I. Not even sure when I'll be able to pop these, fem seeds put me in a bind from popping too many randomly here & there smh.All of my stuff is still vegging, I'm running less lighting than I would for a full-scale grow at half-power (since the autos finished) because I'm going to take them out of the tent to flower them in the early spring (probably mid-january so that they have time to finish before the end of march).

Your posts have me thinking that maybe I should plant a few of them in my grow room in the new year. My only experience with Humboldt Dream has been with my gargantuan backyard plant in 2020, which was so great but my supply is running thin.All I was saying is H dream is the closest to dark hearts Cruz cut as far as seeds go imo. h dream is an indica dominate from their specs which explains the more sedative buzz. Which I agree. Very pleasurable smoke.
My mistake for calling it blue dream. Because in reality. It’s not.
Not a bad idea lolYour posts have me thinking that maybe I should plant a few of them in my grow room in the new year. My only experience with Humboldt Dream has been with my gargantuan backyard plant in 2020, which was so great but my supply is running thin.

Blueberry Muffin from Humboldt is a beautiful cultivar. Smells exactly as the name suggests, and seems to be very uniform in terms of genetic differentiation.
I've purchased several HSC 10 packs from Hembra. Easy purchase, got a tracking number the next day and delivery within 10 days.How is Hembra?? Dependable ?
