Well done :clap: thats one that Im actually really lookin forward to.. seen lots of good reports
Thanks man. Not too shabby for outdoor. :mrgreen:

I can only go off what they're telling me right now, but I think Sundance is well worth running. The Sherb leaner smells of raspberry candy with a hint of ripe melon, that smell you get through the rind before cutting. The other one is like a general fruity smell with a heavy chemical cleaner presence.

Overall I've been really pleased with how they've performed this whole grow. My most trouble free plants by far.

That looks a lot like the 2 Boom Town phenos I grew out few months back. I'm not really sure what Heisengrow is complaining about -- I've had nothing but success with Gu's product. Sure there may be better seedstock out there and clones are clearly superior if you are certain of their origins. However, for someone like myself, growing in a state that has successfully monopolized the right to grow, I must resort to seedstock to build my genetic library. On top of all this, I just started growing last year. Given my current capacity (I grow in a single 2'x4' tent in a 5'x5' closet), I stuck with the best, cheapest genetics I could find so I could get the experience necessary to grow the healthiest, tastiest and most aromatic cannabis plants. After growing out several of the Stardawg crosses, I've decided to mix in other genetics (Cannarado and Ethos) to try other non-Stardawg crosses.

My suggestion -- if you are unhappy with Greenpoint Seeds' products, stop buying them and stop talking about them.
I don't think our two plants look much alike, imo. And I'm not the type to take suggestions on what I should and shouldn't talk about but you do you and I'll do me.

Hey, Magoo. Here's my bb at 82 days. Probably gonna take her down this weekend; 84, 85. I haven't been able to smell anything for 5 days(edit for clarification:loss of smell is due to allergies, not bb's lack of scent) but last check she was creamy onion.20180920_214312_Film2.jpg
I totally fubard these plants, I know. Gotta redial in my recycled soil for these longer flowering ladies.

Before we get totally back on track and since this is the only place I run into you, @AmericanGrower508 How did those banana f3s or whatever turn out? I believe you said they were the same beans cbanana was found in.? Any banana flavor?

Edit for gp related content: Just dusted a couple branches on 2 purple badlands with a bluecaliyo x starfighter male. Seemed like a decent pairing.
I have 2 phenos both smell of banana. #3 smells of banana peels or fresh banana but I didn't get banana taste. I only sampled it a few days after chop. The boys inhaled it quick. Had a super electric, can sit still high when I tried it. My son had a few nugs that cured a few months which he said tasted much more banana and high was more mellow.
#1 was over the top sweet banana I didn't smoke any but kid said it had a nice slightly sour banana taste. I have her at 2 weeks now. I also made a handful of seeds with a male that smelled just like her. Would have been more seeds but was moving and was late hitting her. Most of the pistils had started browning.

Buds look similar, is this your first go with her?

Mine stayed faint all through flower, after two months cure, it resembes a light female perfume , summer time plug in fragrance , think of the “off” bug spray with perfume added version, just very faint , like a diet version of something , Splenda pheno lol

Mine are real fat , but Airy after drying

shit looks like some stuff only a middle schooler would be happy with.. nothing worse than that wasted time feeling.. hoping things will magically turn around in the last week or two.. then they dont :wall:

This a 100 times.

Are people just supposed to not voice discontent at the risk of "offending" someone or being told you're "measuring dicks?"

Fuck that, if I got shit to say I say it and expect others to do the same. Civil discourse is a good thing, imo. Just keep it adult like.
Well yeah, truthful reviews should always be welcomed and appreciated but...
keeping it "adult like" should mean being assertive rather than aggressive. The latter is weak and lame.

And growers who've used GP to improve their gardens shouldn't be referred to as "cheap, nut-swingers, or shills" just because some other "grower" doesn't agree with Gu and his business practice. That's a far cry from civil discourse.

Exactly like two cookie wrecks, except I put them out of my misery. I've yet to get a decent plant out of the 6 CV fem beans I've tried. My hopes are with the prk x cc cross to salvage the buy.
yeah, I've never seen anything like it before- didn't change color or anything, just hit the dirt and dried up... weird... @smashcity, yours looks great- maybe cannaventure is just not good with consistency? or maybe doesn't take care of the seeds right- who knows... (man this thread goes fast!)

Please dont take this as a personal attack.. I hear you but it definitely goes both ways... I have very rarely seen people take personal shots at Gu/GPS, in fact they usually say that the service is great etc, but if there have been multiple instances where people share issues/complaints and are met with aggression and hostility.

Show me a post where anyone has called someone "cheap, nut swingers, or shills" solely because they "used GP to improve their gardens".. Im mostly playing devils advocate, but usually when someone doesn't agree with Gu or his business practices the thread turns into a swarm of bees :fire:..

Shit, just a couple days ago I had an issue with someone who called me a Gu "ass kisser" because they started complaining about not being able to combine shipping on auction wins and I pointed out posted GPS policy/procedure.. but if someone has a valid complaint both sides should try to handle things maturely and avoid aggression. :eyesmoke:

I think that was in response to me, because I said GrowSlut sounded like a shill. Granted, I could have worded things much better and I shouldn’t have singled him out specifically. My point was, some of the praise in this thread is hard to take seriously at times.

And when I said GPS was cheap and that’s why people like it, I’m not saying people who buy it are cheap. I’m merely trying to point out the hypocrisy in people complaining about breeders “in it for the money” but patronize a seed producer cutting corners in order to sell as many seeds as possible as cheaply as possible. And that cheap price means people are willing to overlook things they’d be complaining about elsewhere. A pack from someone else may cost 5x the price, but I’d argue at least some of them are doing 5x the work too.
gu may have felt it would be disrespectful to topdawg and jj... ?
I don’t get the impression that Gu cares about that.

No no...its all good Blow. (had to edit...fuck I'm high :eyesmoke:lol)
I agree. If someone invested their time/resources and has a valid complaint they should absolutely post it. I've always stated this. Just off the top of my head, I've posted "not so glowing" reviews for GP, Bodhi, Top Dawg, Sins, OGR, CC...I try to be honest when reviewing a cross or company and hope others are too.
Negative reports aren't a buzzkill but the drama is.

For some its akin to putting a drop of blood in shark tank.


Honestly don't know where people find the time

Yes. First and only run with her. I didn't take a cut.

Dude what? How does a plant have over two parents? Did someone start making the first genetically engineered seeds?

If you’re saying you won’t buy any strain that has multiple lineages in it....well, good luck buying anything. I guess you’re hunting down those old BOEL landrace seeds, huh?

So you won’t buy Wedding Cake seeds, but you will buy Wedding Cake x Stardawg seeds, cuz somehow that will stabilize things???

And the irony is that you’re supporting GPS, which is literally the definition of a cash grab. Gu does zero selection on his own. He was given the Stardawg male. He crosses it to whatever elite clone he can get his hands on. There’s no thought or intention behind his “breeding” other than, “is this female popular? Then throw her in too”. Then he sells as many of his untested seeds as he possibly can. Gu’s goal is profit. Not to make cannabis better, not to produce something specific and new.

And you all are happy with it because it means cheap seeds. Let’s stop pretending like things aren’t what they are. GPS is concerned about minimizing costs and maximizing profit, and everyone here is a fan because it means $30 packs for them.

Are you not seeing the contradictions here?
Calm down i was making a broad statement that went for gps seeds also

Let me see if i can be more clear when i say 2 parents i mean 2 known strains

For example if u take pre 98 bubba x stardawg thats 2 separate strains 2 parents per say .. genetically its a mix but pre 98 leaners will be clear cut stardawg ones and the mix ones now stay with me

Now if he had a strain like pure vida which is pk x Appalachia (green crack x tres dawg) x stardawg (blizzard bush)

This strain has multiple parents pk,green crack,tres dawg, more tres dawg and chem d being that the stardawg ones will be clear cut after that its a roll of the dice sometimes u have poly hybrids thats still breed the same as the cut ur using and sometimes it just doesnt

Wedding cake is triangle cookies x animal mints do u kno how many strains are in that poly hybrid .. if u were to s1 that what do u think youll get ?

Im not sticking up for anyone or anything just tryna explain why i think sometimes crosses are shit and at this rate u bound to get hermies and weird looking plants bc genetically theres to much going on
