Makes me want to move closer to the equator...... :)

You could say the same thing about Thai. I live at the 38th parallel and equatorial strains are useless to me in their pure form. I don't doubt that there are some ripper equatorial strains . We just don't see it in the US because of geography. I've seen it in Hawaii ( there is no better place...

Cool, thanks. I'll check it out.

I'm just going by what he says, not from my own experiences. I don't harvest early. I'm not just talking a little early though. I know what you mean about the development of the entourage. He harvests at least 3-4 weeks early for his own strange reasons and I won't smoke his pot. He likes it...

It would if you were growing Mex in 1988 and had no other options. :)

Dude, I've been growing for 28 years and you're never going to convince me that Mex is good for anything other than breeding. Again, that argument was settled a long, long time ago. Whatever floats your boat though. One of my closest friends purposely harvests his plants weeks early because...

I have never seen or sampled a pure Mex plant that held a candle to what has been going around in CA for 25+ years. A buddy of mine was growing Mex in San Diego county back in the late 80's. He was a good grower and made the most of it, but I turned him onto some Skunk #1 seeds and it changed...

I never messed with Jack Herer due to the super long flowering time. If it takes longer than 8-9 weeks I'm not all that interested unless it's something really special like Chemdawg. There is a strain called J1 that's very popular among my friends who grow outdoors and want to maximize yield...

Oh, I totally agree. I'm well aware that Mex has uses as a breeder. I have a Harlequin x GDP plant going right now. I think Harlequin leans more Columbian, but Columbian and Mex strains are essentially the same. Of course, the GDP is dominant or I wouldn't be growing it. I just wanted to try...

Best of luck with it. There is a reason why hardly anyone grows Mex and also why you NEVER see it at clubs. I'm sure that most of us have heard the stories about Panama Red and a couple of others that were going around 40+ years ago, but they were long gone by the 1980's so all we have to go on...

I've had good green Mexican weed that wasn't compressed. Sure, is isn't schwag, but regardless of how much you pamper a pure Mexican strain it's not very potent and it doesn't taste good. Unless you want that kind of pot I don't see why anyone would bother growing pure Mex unless they don't have...

Nah, not in this case. The Sugartown and Grape Puff were clones that I got from a friend who bought the seeds. It's still possible that I didn't get a good pheno because he only bought a 10 pack of each and 10 seeds isn't necessarily a good representative sample. A few years back I started with...

Never use a swamp cooler in a grow room. They raise the humidity by a lot and you really don't want your humidity to ever be more than 40-50%. I like to keep my humidity around 40% if not a little lower since I'm terrified of getting powdery mildew. 85 degrees isn't too hot, but it's getting...

Harborside is in Oakland and San Jose. I think they opened a store in Portland under the same name as well.

No, the upcoming "legalization" it isn't freedom at all. What's coming isn't legalization either. It's regulation. It's a bad law and it looks like a lot of people have fallen for the "legalization" lie. The only thing we have going for us in CA is that Prop 215 is written into the state...

Do they carry Dark Heart clones or any other well known breeders? I'm really picky about where I get my clones because I'm terrified of getting mites. I don't have mites and I plan to keep it that way. I live in the Sacramento area, but I usually go to Harborside on the rare occasion that I...

If it specifically says "no indoor growing" in your lease that tells me three things. 1) The landlord is hip to renters growing weed and doesn't want it in the apartment. 2) Because it's in the lease you can bet that the landlord will be checking periodically to make sure that renters are not...

It looks like shock. The smaller leaves appear to be okay so I wouldn't worry about it too much. It should recover fairly quickly. Good luck and watch out for hermaphrodites. GSC is notorious for hermies. I'm surprised that it's still going around. I grew it once and was furiously picking off...

LOL. I know, that's just what I have going right now and the Crimson doesn't hold a candle to any of them. Even the Harlequin x GDP that I have been toying with blows the Crimson away in every dept. except taste. I will make some f2's and see what happens. I got a single male from the first...

Yes, I took some pics of the Crimson at the end of the first run. I will post them later when I get a chance.
