Interesting about the immature seeds. I just sent a question to subcool regarding those and he has yet to respond on the show.

My first time getting them was Agent Orange years ago. I think over the years most times I didn't notice when they were there coze u only notice when when u accidentally trim the buds at wet trim.

Now that I rosin though I've seen it come up in a few of mmj y strains.

I'd really like to know why they are there, is it strictly genetics, environmental, over ripening? ??

Since most strains don't do it I shy away from them now, just killed a stinky stink bomb from archive because the flowers were loaded with those immature seeds (for the record the plant was not pollinated but every pistol has produced a "pre seed".
yeah gotta be genetic because they did it just about every cycle and i stopped running it after 3 runs. be interested to see what sub says

My chernobyl is looking a lot better, first couple set of leafs had some weird type of mutation, leafs were discolored and came out missing pieces of leaf(looked like they got eaten by a fan but theres no fan near them) I grew querkle, ace of spaces and plushberry so this is my 4th TGA strain but it's the first time growing one of his strains from seed ( i got all those others from local dispensaries)

You ever see those real tiny brown ones? I notice them in all my strains I get these little tiny brown seeds that form where a regular sized seed normally would be if it were pollinated. They're extremely small and hardly noticeable. Everyone tells me not to worry about them. They don't seem to effect the taste. From my experience I think it's environmental and perhaps also genetics play a part. I assume genetics can determine almost any factor such as how much heat a plant can take before it stresses. In my case I don't believe over ripening plays a part because I usually harvest every early at about 7 1/2 weeks. They seem to get darker or mature more if the plant goes longer. My friends I give clones to of the same strains I grow don't get them but they have lower temps. These supposed seeds literally fit on the date of a coin. I'm even considering it some type of mutation over time from the radiation generated by the Chernobyl :lol:. got a couple pics. Jesus that went through the grinder and seed looking things picked out. uploading pics is down so here is links.

Great I hope subcool chime in. I have a stinkbomb that had them recently but I'm regrowing her anyway. This time she is bigger and healthier and under better lights.

How much blue do u have in ur flower room? Like I have a couple side lighting that are around 5000kelvins and was wondering if may have something to do with this.

Anyway interesting how ur friend does not get them with the same cut.

Any info on the Girl Time and Space Glue? I'm rebuilding my collection and need to replace GSC and GG#4 crosses that were all seriously dank.

Right now in have 2 flower rooms.One room has 2 600w hps, the other has 1 hps and a KIND LED(RUI users seem to hate these but they do have excellent results). I still get them under HPS and even when I ran only the HPS. It seems like I get them on all my strains which is why I'm suspecting heat. I used to use T5s on the side but took them out a while back. These seeds things never really get bigger than the ones in the pic. I've grown a lot of plants that hermied on me but they were from other companies. To me seemed to be more common with feminized seeds but i've seen regular seeds do it as well. TGA seeds I never seem to have problems with hermys. I find a pollen sack here and there sometimes but never seems to do much harm. I beleive this can happen with any strain no matter where it's from though. I think some are just more stable than others due to genetics. I never once had a true problem with hermies from any TGA Subcool seeds. Besides SLH, the TGA strains are truely the bread and butter of my grow along with the dedication. My rooms have actually been a bit cooler lately because my CO2 gen is down. I'll have to wait and see if things change.

I actually just grinded up a chernobyl bud of my friends and I actually seen the little seed things in his this time. I'm really suspecting heat now because he said he raised his temps this winter. Last year he had PM so he keeps his rooms much warmer this time and no PM problem whatsoever. Around here it seems like whenever it gets cooler out is when all the local growers get PM. I can check with some other friends that grow the same cuts as well that I give plants to. I spread these things like wildfire because I don't have room for them.

All pictures are gone? What happened RIU?
I think the server got DDOS'd and perhaps it's just taking staff a while to get the pics back. I'd imagine they keep backups of everything. Probably just too busy getting high. damn hacker kids.




I have to share this
This guy had some amazing pics but i fell asleep
yeah im a bit obsessive

How do you use your keif? I could see putting it in a Joint. But I am just curious how you smoke it. It seems like you tend to make it a lot. I never really make it.
Put it in joints or mix it in a bowl w/ flowers. I know there's some leaf material in it but it's so worth it to me. The ice w/ bubble bags and whatnot is great if that's what you like but it's just a pain in the ass for me. But that's just me :)

Last night i culled the chernobyl male and transplanted the female, she's now got a large container and a 600w hps all to herself, let's see what this gal can do!! She has a weird leaf mutation that in my opinion makes her unique, some of her leafs have two shades of green , it's quite beautiful.
