Late 70s here, so I vaguely remember the dying days of disco before MTV was launched, and I watched MTV videos pretty regularly while mother partied and drank. One video I found reverberates what social media is become... if you listen carefully, Don 'knows' what's going on that the peons don't :o

MTV was what we watched also, always had something cool to play

6 bigger ones are the cripXmas. Had to move the dankmasters crippy over here because the cat said they were in the way.

He's happy now

Also just read a review posted of the cripXmas. EVERY review I have seen so far are just like this, although not as eloquent as this one.

I asked, and 9.7 is the highest he's ever rated anything. I knew the answer.

We top the cripXmas at the end of the week and transplant. 2 weeks later were taking an exorbitant amout of clones. An adequate sufficiency, as my grandfather would say. Then a few more! Hard to believe I'm only 8 weeks away from chop and hanging these up. It would be another 12 with anything else I run.

The only thing I'm not happy about is not getting one outside this year. And that is easily remedied next season. Along with some fire crosses were going to explore. bongsmilie

Hope everyone is doing well, and thanks for reading!

Now you know the "Dankmaster standard" for potency. I believe I made posts in Dec of 22 saying CripXmas will be game changing. I don't think many believed what I said then, but I yet again prove myself with time.

All the plants look great, fairly consistent and strong. She's a fast rooter too, but yeah I'll look forward to seeing a true crop of this grown. I bet it's gonna be a sight to behold :bigjoint:

It's hard to get past the speculation. So many times I've heard the hype, but this time I don't have that uneasy feeling where I'm planning what pack to pop next. There's too many reviews from too many trusted sources. I can't wait to be the next to confirm that weed is back on the menu!

This is not only a game changer for the state of cannabis today, but a game changer for my financial outlook. I know about 50 -75 people that will be trating drop day like black Friday for the flower! Thank God it's done in 6 weeks. I'll trade samples and prerolls for their torches and pitchforks.

For the better part of a year I've been pheno hunting, so it's been a crapload of plants in 5gal buckets trying to find some magic in frosty's hat. Once I get this cripXmas going, it's getting the 4x8 scrog treatment, or a 4x8 sog. Since there's little to no stretch, I can slam 18 5g buckets in there. My first "proper" run in just short of forever.

You know I'll have to dust these with some meltdown pollen too! Some purple cripxmas anyone?

Farmaid is at SPAC this year! Saratoga Performing Arts Center. An outdoor amphitheater in a state park like 25 minutes from me. We go walking there with the cat sometimes.

I just bought tickets for me and my wife for our birthday presents!

Willi Nelson, Neil Young, Dave Matthews & Tim Reynolds. Others too, but... you know.

So, a couple things. Farmaid is September 21st, my surgery is scheduled for september 18th. 2 days isn't enough time to recover from surgery like that, not even for me.

So, I got it moved to August 28th. 21/2 weeks before the concert. I was up and walking on my own 5 days after my heart transplant, so 2 1/2 weeks should be golden!

Other thing. Transplanting the cripXmas A2 today, with Mr Zeus of course.

One done, 5 to go. I'll be topping them after as well. Hopefully 2 more weeks of veg, then clones and 6 short glorious weeks of flower.

I just looked at the calender. If I pop one in bloom Sunday, I can have cripXmas done, chopped and dried by farmaid. Yes, I'm doing that. I got one stretchy one picked out already (back right in the above pic)

Kitty says it's a good idea. I run all my ideas through him first.

Everybody was transplanted yesterday. Time for a topping. I'm going to leave the super stretchy one (back right) as is and put it into bloom tonight. I'll take some clones and see what we got. The other 5 are very consistent. Close nodal spacing, nice and compact so far.

I'm noticing a leaf wrinkle on the one going into bloom, and the front right plant. Could just be the fan hitting them.

Oh you have a TC phenotype in that case. ONLY Tampa Crippy does this wrinkle from excessive Mg need, even then it more of a trait than Mg. All looking great. You're the only one that GETS IT about the time cycle, which is another huge advantage to this line.

Any major differences you noticed in the Tampa crippy pheno? Stronger/different flavor scent or potency?

Thats a bold statement if true I will be first in line The quickest, I have seen in 40 yrs of growing is 56 days an I lost that 25 yrs ago.
Same here man. 8 weeks was the norm on everything I ran from late 90's until 2017. I've seen too many reviews by people I know personally to doubt it at all.

I've heard it all before as I'm sure you have. Fire, gas, "this shit is good smoke" or just "good smoke" wtf does that even mean? If I want good smoke, I'll buy tobacco.

After every review, there is always another final statement apologizing for not being able to put into words how glorious these crippy crosses are. I'm sold. I'll know for sure very soon, and so will anyone else interested in the community grow.

I couldn't believe it myself, but at 28 days my F3 cut looked 1/2 way done with how the glands started to come in, and sure enough SEED matured at 49 days, so peak potency is about 42-45. Wouldn't bother trying to mass produce this line if it was just average, so far from it. Like a dream come true for a sativa hybrid similar to Jack Herrer.
