I wish I'd taken pictures of Cole Train a couple of years ago. 4 weeks into 12 / 12 it looked like a plant, but not a pot plant - executed it. Connie Chung was pretty good. Have a new baby Kushberry just started 12/12 fs.

Was you at the Spannabis Barcelona this year? I think its a much better place to go than the High Times in Amsterdam just wasn't feeling the dark dirty warehouse venue...it's like Dam is going backwards and getting too restricted where other countries are going forwards

Not so much the gear but the owner Brett. People kind of put him and swerve in the same category.

u too huh? i guess all our wives can not understand our seed addictions.. i know its an addiction i have more than i can ever plant yet still browse strains and have a need to get more..i told her 3 times "this is my last order"" i guess now its just a straight out lie!!shishkaberry i think is discontinued haven't seen it about for around 1 year i saw some apothecary old school jams @ spannabis looked nice, a mate done the same last year he said it was a decent strain but he did not take cut

Mine learned fast that it wasn't going to be the last time...
But I have regulated myself for now.

No need for lies. A gift for you (beans) means a gift for the other half (whatever works). It keeps the peace and everyone gets something shiny. Cheers!

4 are by DNA (Kushberry, Connie Chung, Chocolope and LA Chocolat). Sour Diesel and Cole Train are Reserva Privada. Those are all fem seeds. The Atomic Love and Sweet Tooth are regular seeds.

well its been 7 orders in the last 8 months alone, the last 3 is wen i said my last ones and they wher over $1,000.00 orders...i have a refridgerator(full size) in the basement designated for seeds.. i have over 200 strains, and probably 200 more i created myself by stabilizing packs of 10, then my own f1 crosses..3 times? thats it? thats not an addictions
got stephen hawking on the way.
i have every land race and stabilized hybrid i could find from seed companies. then regular f1's and feminized, many of them i have no idea of when i will get to planting..
wright now i have 7 strains i popped last year that im flowering, then i have 7 strains i popped about a month ago of the 7, 4 wer feminized and i have 2 of each of the regulars that i just cloned so i wont know which are females or males for a few more weeks..
i plan to do 1 or 2 more cycles finding out which strains to keep then i want to narrow it down to 3 strains an indica dom a sativa dom and a hybrid so my patients can have a strain to suit there needs, indica for sleep or pain, sativa for daytime and the hybrid for whatever.. i hate having so many different mothers to tend to, its much easier to care for 1 or 2 strains than several..

hey guys, maybe u can help me with a question?? ive read in high times how they prefer getting your mothers from regular seeds rather than feminized, why? i bought hundreds of regular seeds but recently im wishing i had bought all feminized..much easier to plant 10 fems then keep the best than to plant 10 to weed out males then still have to find the best female..why do they think regular seeds create a better plant? i know with regulars u can breed ur own but u can with feminized too if u use silver spray or the rhodilization method to get pollen.. i dont understand why they think regular seeds are better for finding your mother,,it just dont make sence...
also why dont seed companies sell more stabilized strains?? most seeds are f1's so u have to plant a bunch to find the phenio u like..and the hybrid vigor of f1's isnt all its cracked up to be.. id prefer a stabilized hybrid over f1'any day as uniformity is more apealing than getting 10 different looking plants...pluss if u were buying stabilized plants u can just breed to get ur own f1's rather than having to put in all the back crossing and keeping the best males around to bring that phenio u like to a point were all the seeds will be the same as that phenio or close to it..in my opinion seed companies would be far better off selling us stabilized seeds it may be a little more work for them but then wen we buy a pack of seeds we know they will be like the breeders write up on that strain.. i hate wen a seed company says this strain will smell like this and yield like that, then u plant the seeds and none of them even slightly resemble the picture that that strain was suppose to be????
WOULDNT U PREFER A PACK TO BE UNIFORM? OR DO U LIKE PAYING UP THE ASS FOR 10 DIFFERENT PLANTS IN THE SAME PACKAGE??

I grow whatever is available in what I want, doesn't matter wether it is fem or reg to me as long as I know what to expect. Companies don't stabilize strains because it takes a lot more dedication to go through many cycles selecting the best mate out of 100's of plants.
It is much easier to collect a bunch of winning females and hit them with a stud. Instead of having one strain you now have 20 or 30 or whatever. You just gotta think about it from the "if I was the seed breeder what is the best course of action". It is a lot easier for people to sell 12 strains then it is for them to sell 1 (unless the hype is real).

Yea ... Totally correct . However I'm quite unsure why some breeders just don't work a line out and then release let's say gorilla glue #4 F1 for 150$ f2 for 125$ and F3 for 100$ and f4 and later for 75$ All at once . Obviously people can get stable to finding gold . but let's agree each generation loses a little less from those F1 which give you the closest representation of mommy and daddy . If they worked a line for 2 years and dropped dropped F1 through F3 at once everybody gets what they want . Maybe I should start breeding program and working my lines like that . Hah. Just a thought

My only question to you would be why do you charge less for beans that took longer and more choosing to get to?
