Whew! 133 pages of In House Genetics. Too bad not all of the discussion regards results from this seed producer. Lots of reading to get a bit of information. After all that, I just picked up a pack of Silverback (gg#4 x Black Cherry Pie). Got this because I just got a cut of GG#4 from a highly regarded source. I'll put the Silverback side-by-side (or "side-by-each" as they say in Quebec!). I have a wild hair to hit the GG#4 with pollen from one of my Silverback males...but that would be way down the line. Too many strains, too little time.

There is some fire in ihg gear, but it's unstable as shit and half of it is mislabeled or lied about what it actually is. So I would avoid using any of their gear for breeding. Especially if you're going to cross two herm prone strains. I feel like we'd be seeing more gg4 s1s if selfing gg4 didn't totally fuck something up haha.

I'm gonna pop some purple ark freebies I got. Only have the 3 and my hopes aren't real high. Just more or less something to do for the summer, I usually take the summer off do to higher temps and humidity.

IMHO if you have the real cut then I would just stick to running that. There is someone in this thread that have shown what the Silverback looks like but it doesn't like exceptionally better than GG#4 and I haven't hear any reports to say others that it improved the mom so stick with that. I have a few GG#4 crosses I haven't touched because of reports not being the best and the mom is awesome so why try to grow a cross when you have the cut. I think there are better GG#4 crosses to Bx with IMHO than IHG bullshit

using ihg strains as breeding stock? hahahhahahaha people need to learn more about breeding! using untested polyhybrids to breed?

i have alot of strains, and alot of space. i cannot fathom how these guys are pulling it off. it is simply impossible unless they have dozens of facilities to avoid cross contamination. just the shucking of beans is a mind numbing process. they must have many employees doing nothing but shuck beans all day.

I cant keep my shit straight. I need dry erase boards, powerpoint excel, world wide webs and shit to keep mine straight and istill lose strains from not keeping track.

damn

That's what I was wonder how in the fuksakes are they keeping up with all their shit. Feminized beans that are regs, now that is just to much. Now remember guys these are just souvenirs. I could resist. I put two of the three packs that I have of IHG in the pile that may never get popped.image.jpeg

I ran/am running that 'Silverback' which they re-named to Cherry Gorilla. Already finished up the mom, hydro clones are almost done too. Don't get me wrong, it's decent smoke, but I'm not running it anymore after this round. The pheno I kept smells sweet and has some funk to it as well while growing, but lacks that smell in the jars. Taste is just ok too. Buds looked and felt dense while growing, but feel light after they are dried. Soil did better than hydro is doing. They really stretch a lot and my hydro got a little stretchy so the buds are not forming like the did in soil. They are more airy and lanky in hydro. I found a couple nanners on the mom at around day 50, nothing pollinated, but makes me nervous. Not super impressed. The high is pretty good, but a little stoney for my taste. Overall I'd give it a 7 out of 10. I decided to move on to some Bodhi gear for my next run(s)

Those are good piles to have. My pile was pretty steep not long ago, then I noticed people who stated interest in many of them, and alakazam ! That pile pretty much got wiped out, while my 'must pop' pile grew to 'beyond possible'.

I won't order any more IHG, but I dig all the ones I've smoked, and the Rainbow Cookies trio look superb w/ less than two weeks to finish. With all the knowledge of possible problems documented in this thread, including my boyfems of PAK, I still see it as an acceptable risk to pop more. Just use caution, and pop an equivalent amount of 'cheap back ups' just in case.

man oh man I have a pheno of fat purple from hazeman/fatmarty

that is straight grape koolaid. most grape smelling strain I have ever had, and I ran querkle for years, and have tried dozens of urkle crosses.

it ooozes sap, and the sap tastes like straight grape jelly. never thought the sap would taste like it. first strain i ever had to ooze sap from buds.

grape doesnt transfer over to the hit though, and its real lanky weird buds. nothing like pics. ordered another pack along with Grape 13, tuna x forum, strawberry cough etc.

It still hurts to think about losing 4 gorgeous Fat Purples to pm this past winter

I held cardboard between the hps and the 3 RC plants, and you still have to make an effort, but especially notice the iced tacos on all 3. Easier to see if you look lower. They all look like they'll be done 8 weeks and sooner. I'm expecting a below avg yield of tasty stash.
