You buying any new strains this season ? Or sticking to the strains you have
yes im going to be buying a few more like IHG Purple Sherbet(Purple Hulk x Sunset Sherbet) & Golden State Seeds Berlato(Berry Gelato x Gelato 33)
there's 3 main pollen chucks im interested in doing, and i can only perform one type per year, the cookies chuck, the high yielding early finisher chuck, & the purp chuck, the cookies chuck will end up being top headstash types of low to medium yielders & i would love to cross these together...types such as; Cannarado Shave Ice, Exotic Genetix Mint Chocolate Chip, Sincity Sinmint Cookies, GGG Mendobreath, Dynasty Platinum Huckleberry Cookies, Bay Exclusives Poly Hybrid Mix, Golden State Seeds Anniversary Cake, Pheno Finder Seeds Sunset Sherbet, Cannaventure Animal Cookies, IHG Purple Sherbet, Greenpointseeds Nightmare OG x Monster Cookies & Cannarado Barney Rubble if his pollen has worked well in this seasons chuck...most of these types ive seen grown out in the Seed and Strain Reviews thread here on RIU & are proven dank!
the heavy yielders chuck & purp chuck will consist of approx the same number of players...from proven top quality strains grown out by RIU members & listed in the Seed & Strain Reviews thread, i mean there's lots of other strains out there with wonderful sounding names but i do not want to waste my time with them, because if there is no real unbiased tested grows of them they may in fact be rubbish? im looking for only the best quality proven types...lifes too short bro

Hey fellas, it seems like I need to comment on the American side of this discussion. It should be noted that America is very large, and the prevailing attitudes/laws vary quite a bit. The open, innovative community you guys are talking about describes the West coast. The rest of the country is anywhere from a little to a lot behind. There are plenty of folks here who assume all quality bud is hydro - other than legal states, indoor is better quality, and most do not realize you can use soil indoors. Knowledge is spreading faster as more places legalize. But there is still a lot of bs being spoken as truth. Other than growers, few people are motivated to find out what it takes to produce top shelf nugs.

Nice strains . beautiful buds. Bought some femme spray yesterday to try out on different females to see which works better that or colloidal silver.

Your best bet for improving yields is to use non cookie crosses. There are a lot of good crosses that have most of the quality of cookies and a lot better yield. If you are anything like me, it is great to have some super quality head stash, but it is nice to be able to roll J's and pass them around without worrying about depleting the supply too.

Not good. Liberal/conservative aside, Trump and Sessions (the new attorney general) are trying to undo about 20 years of slow legal progress. The average person is anywhere from in favor to accepting as long as users don't bother them. It is being set at the state level now, but if they crack down federally, even 'legal' states may go back to the being black markets regardless of what the average person wants.

Mr Trumpet really frightens me to to be honest, such an erratic & impulsive person...definitely not the type to be running the US at this moment in history...or at any moment thinking about it? im sure there's many citizens there for the first time in their lives feeling actually embarrassed about their president!...same as here when recent prime minister Tony Abbott held the reigns...total retard...ashamed that dude was there representing this country!

That's a shame to see all that hard work could be undone by people who don't care about the people or system

its the old story of its too easy to destroy in a moment of madness which took a lifetime to build...
That is all too true. I am hopeful that the success of the states that are already legal will help people realize how much better off.they could be. Those states are seeing so much tax revenue that they have budget surpluses, even after spending much more on education and healthcare. DUIs are down. Drug crime in general is down. Its obviously clear to some people, since whole countries are going legal. But the US is extremely divided, and I do not expect anything good from the current government. The complete cluster f#$k of how they are handling the Russian investigation gives me some hope Trump/Sessions may lose their jobs though. It would be a lot easier to survice a year of them than make it through four years.

Raspberry Kush x C99 pollinated via G.A.S. Cherry Sherbet(top pic) & IHG Cactido pollinated via Cannarado Barney Rubble(lower pic) each show 1 blade purping effect, sacrificed 1 lower bud on most pollen chucks for an inspection of seed development & am happy to see bean formation is proceeding well with no abnormalities appearing so far

probably the hardest fact for me to accept is...that both Trump's & Abbott's positions of authority were given to them 'BY THE PEOPLE'...which means that...a large proportion of mainstream society think that its ok to have these very flawed individuals ruling them, leaves me with a very jaded view of humans in general
