Hey growmies! I am on my last ilgm grow and one plant keeps getting spots on the leaves. Oh i HATE ilgm genetics. I havent had 1 grow of their beans that went great. Never had any of these problems before ilgm. Their stuff has weak resistance apparently. Anyways can anybody tell me what this is? I think septoria? Or maybe rust. Think neem oil will help? Or what will? Im already starting some other seeds in case i have to scrap and start over. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated ! Hope yall are good. Thanks

This is the best Bergman Bean plant ive had so far. The other ones spots have not gotten any worse after the neem oil, but its more like the others ive grown with their gear. I.E. no smell, dull look. That 1 though already reeks. This surprised me as its the first time I have gotten any smell worth a fk from their beans. Pungent skunky citrus. Fkn weird . Its still vegging and smells better than the buds off the last 2. Maybe I finally found a decent pheno. About time. Oh well , I already started another bean, hope its good. Hope yall doing well. Slaveboy! Did cure help that skunk? It sure looked nice.

my dp is starting to become a little smelly as I cure it. I asked friends how they like it, they love it. I'm just really picky. The skunk isn't smelling, a bit harsh and gave me a headache. Jedi mind trip Columbian has great terps, which I don't have much of, from DC seed exchange, that a couple were hermaphrodite. All in all, I'm not satisfied, but will have a lot of edibles

Isnt that how it is? My friends dont get it either. Wife has told me im too picky and to stop bitchin'. They ALL love the shit even though it has no taste. I pulled out the end of last winters WWauto and it was so harsh and nasty I couldnt smoke it. It smelled like oak leaves . Yuck! . Then I pulled out the last (almost) of the bagseed kush cross and it still tastes and smells same as it did 9 months ago. I dont think its being picky or asking too much for decent flavor. Non-growers dont get it. Kudos on the clones. Do you have a place to grow inside? I figured that skunk woulda been better the way it looked. I started a couple bagseed that I found from some fragrant mexican stuff a buddy gave me. Even if its less thc its a worthwhile trade if they have good terps. Hopefully this GG keeps doing well too. About time. Glad you at least can make edibles. I get too wasted on them but have turned ALOT of ILGMs crap into pudding and cookies. Good luck my friend, I hope you find the terps you crave.

I hope the edibles are good. The Mexican is probably great. If our friends thinks it's great, they can come get it. Yes, I have plenty of space inside, but I only keep mother's inside over the winter. Growing outside is a lot less expensive and great yields. Some of those clones may get chopped down, depending on the outcome of everything. If I keep even one, I'm settling, which I probably should just rid of them all. I have a friend in Florida, has Maui wowie. He grows and dries it like a Mexican, but the strain is gas. Going to throw him some bud soon. Try to get some seeds from him.

Is that cannabutter? Nice! Yeah I agree about friends.lol. I been gifting a few with GG buds and they fkn love the shit. I dont get it ,wish I did. I hate smoking tasteless weed. The Mexican(bought from one anyways, no idea what strain) was very good, dense round ping pong nugs. Army green with purple hairs. So at least some indica. Hell its gotta be better than Bobs. Just looked and that one GG4 is popping pistils at 25 days. Its like a totally different strain every bean I pop. The phenos are so different theres no consistency. I miss the days when you could find a real landrace strain. Hope you get that Mowie Wowie. Seems like you could use it. And outside you can grow it to its potential. I hear they get enormous.

This last ILGM run is progressing albeit strangely as usual. They are all GG4 autos. The 2 in front were germinated and planted at the same time. The left 1 took off and is by far the best Bergman bean plant ive had. The other, .. not so much. They're only 1.5 months from germ. They look like 2 different strains. The big one popped pistils at 25 days and is now budding nicely. The other just today has (1) pistil in the center. The bigun has 18 tops after light LST. The other just got tall enough to LST the branches. One smells great, the other like nothing, maybe dirt.. I just transplanted the seedling into a 5g bucket and im tempted to give it the lightspace of the sketchy one. ILGM beans havent given me 2 similar phenos in 5 grows. Pathetic. A buddy just gave me some Ice Cream Cake bagseed beans I cant wait to try out. That stuff was the flame cant believe 1 bud had 7 seeds . Good luck growmies! Hope yall are well.

Hey, was just thinking about coming here. Good timing. I just responded to ILGM , telling them that I went through the curing process, and still nothing. Just like you, I got a bunch of different phenotypes. I had a couple of good ones, not many. Although, while cloning after everything showed sex, I just went crazy and cloned a bunch of lower limbs, all stoned lost track of them. I put them outside and they all matured from six inches to two feet. Was an amazing thing. Anyway, I found some gas in there. I believe it's the tr. I just cut the big ones down. They smell the same. The TR wins! Still not over, but I do believe TR is the one. A couple of them were a little different and not as stinky as others, some has dense buds, some loose. I cloned the best ones. Still in the drying and curing process. ILGM already in jars and ready to cook. I did cook some, not very strong hopefully, it's the chef

Looks like the same situation. I hope you find something good in the end.

I am really shocked at how good the big plant has been doing. Its stinky, its grown fast as shit and its just hands down better than the others. I wish ALL the seeds in that pack were this pheno. I wouldnt have any complaints. I guess they just dont care. It cant be that hard to look at the difference and say "Thats the one!" and chunk the others. Oh well, if I get screwed again it wont be by those bastards.

I would if i could, but its an auto so i wouldnt be able to keep a mother. If I had known there would be so damned many phenos i woulda bought photo beans. Ah bugger. The wedding cake beans i have are photos so maybe i can do something with those.

Duh, I forgot. When I first started growing, I had ruderalis. It was supposed to be auto, but I cloned it and it was my favorite strain of all. I grew it in the bush, sides of highways and all. My friends said it seemed to get better every year. I grew it for about 5 years straight. It didn't flower under 24 hours light, but maybe it wasn't auto.

These are definitely autos, however i am suspect about just about every other part of their genetics. Ive been running them 20/4. Im just glad to have something growing right now. I had to stop for a few months and im running low! The 1 thing that these GG beans do is flower fast. The big one doubled in size in a week. They have access to good phenos but apparantly dont care to separate them. I am ready for the new gear but hopeful this grow might actually be a good one. Its about time.

I sent this link to ILGM support. He wanted to see pictures, so I said, go to our conversation and see what everyone is saying about your seeds, plus a lot of pictures.

Hell yeah! Hes sure not going to find any super glowing reviews here. I have put up quite a few underwhelming pics myself lol. And I know its not just me because everything I grow from bagseed turns out great. I hope it makes a difference but I doubt it will. Most of their customers are like I was. Never bought beans before and they guarantee shipping and germination and take cash. And....Google......I learned alot of things playing around with their 10+10 for $110 beans. And the stuff does have a decent buzz. But now im ready now for quality,consistency, stability and TERPENES. If you're reading this ILGM, then please fix this. We care about finished product not only germination. Give people what they're paying for and you'll make loyal customers.
