Tell me sweet little lies! If you look at the sheer amount I have posted on Insta under the Manidoo Seeds handle I use for my project your gonna find that nothing was selected out of anything more than just a few trays and a few hundred is more than enough to find plenty of keepers regardless of the seed origin and stock. We picked killer highbrid plants back in the midst of the 90's out of Mexican import that was Hybridized with Broad Leaf types and it was never necessary even then to grow more than just a handful of seeds to find gems.

Sadly Sam the Smartass or Skunk Man as he loves to be known insisted that people are just poorly breeding with poor numbers be it direct lines or open pollination where he stated you need more than just hundreds lol

This plant evolved in smaller isolated places then he's letting others know. It only grows in the thousands when planted in the thousands for charas and other products including textiles from the diversity of plants used for not just hash but utilized to their fullest potential from textiles to seed and oils.

Otherwise there's no magical forrests of thousands and thousands of plants growing wild to even compare. I also have to say that nature takes out the weak and people like Sam include it when open pollination takes place smh ! Might explain why his skunk went sweet somewhere in the midst of his work lol
I definitely remember when I first puffed in the 90s there was skunk terps and very strong skunk nose on bud that was going around. Maybe it's a nostalgic thing, tend to think it might be, but I know I was definitely smelling straight up skunk in the 90s.

Ok now we are getting to the thread. You reccomend these 4. Who are the vendors you dont reccomend? Since shinobi and another you dont.
This thread bounces back regardless of the topics drifting. Sadly there's a lot of seed scams taking place too- never bought seeds myself but others have had horrible luck with 7 East as a example. Herms and Rope was the report from several people I know

I don't think there's another one I can list besides Shinobi, the others were people banned eventually that I and those in my Collective dealt with one way or another through Strainly. Oh yes, Oneoftheluckones already mentioned- Bad news Bear unless you want viroids and pests plus mold.

Black Sheep, not through Strainly but One of my buddies wasted 600 recently to recieve nothing more than twigs and a few roots. Nothing survived and it has nothing to do with the shipping stressers either.

What type of strains do you like to grow and smoke, what your preferences on terps?

Old-school, I have been smoking for a long time. I prefer strong vigorous cultivars and heirloom types more than anything. In the journey nowadays it's not the same nine out of ten times. I like mostly though my own work as it's customized for me

I have everything that there's terp wise either in cut or seed within the collective but I love funk, fuel and Skunk along with the classics like Bubba Kush and everything else that's unique.

Outside of a few cuts that are hard to aquire, Strainly served us to check out the new era hype and nothing has changed since we last did this sadly.

Brother I'm off limits and I don't want to sell my passion and pride in the work I do and if I did it would be wrapped up so tightly nobody else could open it up.

Knot for sale, not even my own cuts I cull. Just here to help others see in a different way so nobody has to buy weak genetics and sick cuts if they want to go a different route. I left the trail. It's best that I don't speak like this in the main forums so onwards with the reports. Rains passed by and I have gardens to care for...


Walk in peace

Ya man I agree with alot of what your saying. I do like the modern day gelato/cookies etc. but must say they are completely lacking variation, when you've ran a few of em> you've ran them all. They become redundant. The looks and structure are so similar on some of these strains that you really can't tell different strains apart. Same with terps/smell all very similar at least to me anyways. I've been trying to find cookies/gelato strain that have a bit more gas/fuel terps and have had success with wyeast farms + crane city.

I think we may have misinterpreted each other.

Someone reported you?

As I stated above I like that your willing to share knowledge and help fellow growers but think this thread is about clone vending and who to and who not to deal with.

Monterey Garden Insect Spray (Spinosad) works pretty well on thrips.

As for heat stroke, I (again) recommend using Phase 22 Cryopak "phase change" packs in conjunction with ice or heat packs. You can read more details and purchase at Superior Shipping Supplies. During extreme weather I suggest two Cryopaks to each ice or heat pack. Even in mild weather when an ice or heat pack isn't necessary, you can use Phase 22's to maintain a moderate temperature.

The pack on the left is liquid, the one on the right is frozen solid.

Neem karanja oil mix in veg-week 2 flower along with pure crop 1 has worked wonders for anything I have come across. It has become my quarantine process and basic preventative maintenance in my room.

Happy growing!

Oneoftheluckyone is good for seeds and snips. I think some y’all need to try snips, then you can clone em lol. Per the heat, last year most took the summer off from sending cause of it, I seriously doubt they be paying for cryopacks, jmo. But it looks like money talks and they’ll send some. Lol damn the post office tho, every priority box I send or receive lately got a big portal hole in it, no matter how good it’s taped up lol

After my experience with rooted cuts I am willing to try snips. I agree most sellers probably won't spend an extra $11 for a couple cryopaks, but I think they would have less bad outcomes if they did. Sellers with $75 cuts could charge an extra $15 for enhanced shipping, and people selling cuts for $500 can afford to eat the cost themselves.

So I just received platinum gucci (Roc’s cut) from Rocbudinc himself, however I didn’t realize he would be sending unrooted cuts. They are not in the best shape & per instructions I did not dip in rooting hormone. I never had anyone send unrooted cuts so what can I do to ensure success❓Or are they too far gone❓CA9F5C1A-52CA-4040-8718-F0F6723C0C93.jpeg7B361003-D9C1-4510-B976-051458511E4A.jpeg894BD82D-9B7C-4AA1-9277-55EF038F4719.jpegF47D2390-11AD-4598-B9DB-A1E2B8EC884D.jpeg

I know I'm usually a complaining SOB but those don't look that bad, put them under a humidity dome and they should perk up. I'm not sure about not using any kind of rooting solution though, never heard of that. Maybe dip them in something when they recover from shipping.

I would usually put them in a cup of water to perk up, but they're already in cubes so I guess go with that.

He said he already dipped them in hormex vit B after cutting. Says that gel restricts the cut from soaking up water & has better results with the hormex vita B. You think I should make a fresh cut & dip in powder possibly?
