Cubing, Preserving Elite Genetic Lines

FUCKITUP.COM....grobot...I see why subcool doesn't visit as much.

Sub..... I know this post is years late and probably will lie unread for years to come but if you ever see this thank you. not only for your fine genetics but your informative and open attitude. I admire the way you educate people and try not to let trolls bring you down into arguments...with experience comes wisdom i suppose. I am on my last month of a deployment in Iraq and cant wait to return to the states take, 5 weeks off work and "relax" ya know. Just wanted to let you know reading through all your teachings lets me learn about my favorite hobby even when i cannot partake in growing or smoking until i am out of the military in 2013. I have some beans of yours saved to pop the DAY i get out (Aug 10, 2013)... until then i do research scientist style, help my buddy (who i got hooked on TGA) with advice and new knowledge from you and others, find alternative ways to deal with stress and pain (other than the best method we all know and love) and i hope to one day shake your hand and let you take a rip on somethin of yours i grew. almost a year ago I spent a week narrowing down what beans to order and save for good ol' 2013 (my wife...Sativa...yes Sativa...would only allow me to get 4 diff strains at the time). Do you think your seeds can last that long? I have The Flav, Space Bomb, Space Jill, and Deep Purple...i hope to get many more of your strains and maybe make some crosses to spread the love once i practice my hands on skills for a few years. Well I ramble, its all I have to do until my wife wakes up to video chat lol. Peace Brotha, thanks again man. PS KEEP UP THE YOUTUBE VIDS!!! I felt like i was at Seattle Hempfest 2011 while in southern Iraq thanks to you.

Brother loving the story this am glad I gave you something to read over while you served my country.
The beans should be fine but that dont matter you get out just contact me and remind me of your story and whats mine is yours

Sub

You are welcome for the service Sir! You just made my day Sub, I'm grinning from ear to ear and it was needed. Your generous offer is greatly appreciated. I love getting such a personal message from one of my few heroes! I can't wait to tell my wife. I feel like a 10 year old who just got a baseball autographed at the big game! You're the man, keep it up...if trolls or haters ever get you down just remember there's thousands of us out here who literally got your back! If you ever travel to D.C. and want a tour guide or a place to rest your head hit me up!!! My base is like 10 minutes away from downtown. Peace brotha!

Awesome!! That's real right there!!

Well, thanks for being a breeder sub. You have done more with mj than most of us ever will. If you're making money because of your hard work, great! Too bad you don't give out much advice, but I have noticed when giving advice lately other members are quick to criticize that advice and don't offer their own, more informed or learned opinion, just flame out on you.

Anyway, just wanted to encourage others on this board to help out new growers and show a little respect to their peers. We all share the same passion, albeit in different ways.

Too bad you don't give out much advice

Seriously
I have been typing non stop for 12 years now.
Just because people dont take the effort to find the answers don't mean there not out there.
I google my own articles to give you an example.

sub, I was empathizing with your general statement earlier in the thread about being apprehensive to give advice on individual grows/threads due to the heat you seem to receive. I have read many of your sticky's/threads and know you contribute to the community. I was not criticizing you, though when taken out of context it may appear so, lol. I do agree with you, some people are just too lazy to research, but looking at books and web pages only goes so far in the learning experience. The interaction of student and teacher combined with hands on experience provide the best means to learning, imo. Happy growing!

hey Sub did you see the big RIU BBQ that's goin down?? It would be tooooo cool to se ya there.

interesting thread. I like how its sprinkled with pictures

Sub, any plans to actually cube some of your gear (the A-13 you weren't supposed to breed with, perhaps?), instead of just making one off crosses and then bx's with limited seeds being sprouted? I guess what I'm asking is, are you going to step up to the big boy game of breeding and sprout 50-100 seeds of a strain to find a male, or are you going to continue to rely on your 'eye for dank'? i've got an eye for dank, too, and I've recently had the displeasure of smoking some TGA garbage that my buddy grew. I thought he was just a shitty grower, till I gave him a clone of something and he came back with what actually resembled dank weed! Your genes need work done to them, buddy. Get off YOUTUBE and go sprout some seeds...

Your opinion is like an asshole, everyone's got one. How many TGA strains have you actually grown? You gave your buddy a clone of something that resembled dank weed? You're a very reliable source of information..... -_-

You got something to show for all your bullshit you speak of ? Not sure why you just troll TGA gear all over the boards. You some breeder rep with your fake ass shit trying to push one man down to get a leg up?

F4 and F5 backcrosses are better than the F1 hybrids usually, or should I say more stable. Although the way Sub is doing his shit is working, cuz I'll say I use to have his agent orange and that girl was amazing, so you can talk all your shit on him you want but he's the one with a seed company.

Sub, not sure if you'll see this but. I understand the process of cubing and genetic breeding. What I'm wondering is have you dabbled in pheno crossing to either strengthen or generate a consistant phenotype?
