These dudes that sell herm genes...most of them havent even grown their own crosses to observe all the problems first hand.... honestly if "Breeders" are selling u seeds they arent even growing for themselves and getting top dollar for it on the market.... do u really want those seeds... most of the time they are complete let down ... Im str8 on getting dank advice from some dude in Alaska ,,, thats me personally ...maybe its because im born and raised in SoCal... the worst is then the fan boys come out swinging on the nutts of these pollen chucking hacks... Herm lines are trash

Am I remembering correctly that you have a Dope Beard Durban going right now? How's it progressing, if you don't mind me asking?
No, not the Dope Beard (although I grabbed a half-pack as a freebie). I have a few Durbalayans outdoors though. I've had a big mite problem so I'm not going to see the best of them, but I'm getting a look at them anyway. A female and a male triggered into flowering very early and I decided to f2 those two. The female looked pretty promising early but is looking sick and exhausted, and I don't think I'm going to get smoke that's going to represent the genes well . Between mites and fairly heavy pollination and a near-frost couple of days, I'm just hoping she can hold on to make viable seeds for that fast triggering trait. My hunch is that those two are SSSC Durban leaners. I have another quite different pheno that still needs a week or two. She's pretty... neon green with pink/magenta pistils until recently. We'll see about that one. There don't seem to be any stanky-danky odors in any of the plants... sort of an odd (but appealing) blend of soft, kind flavors.

I appreciate the details. Good luck finishing things up.

Here are the SSSC F3 Durbans I grew last season. One was purple ad the other green. The DBD nugs are more rounded leaves slightly wider too. I have one other DBD that is lighter green and coming along slower than the one pictured. I'll try to pull that one out for a quick photo at some point.

Ah, cool! Yeah... my fast triggering Durbalayan female looks quite a bit like the purple one. I didn't mention but that one has darkened a lot in the colder weather. That helps confirm my suspicion that they're Durban leaners. But I have no idea what pre-1980 Himalayans and skunks should look like either.

What was the smoke from that purple one like? Was that one a winner?

I've noticed that he really loads up those little conical vials ( are those sold as centrifuge tubes maybe??). Putting myself in his shoes, I could see losing patience with counting seeds and just filling those vials to a point where you're sure there are at least the promised number. If you go over by a lot...so what... happier customers, less petty labor. One little overlooked bonus with AKBB I've noticed.

Swami does the same thing, unless theyve recently changed. I havent bought any of their gear recently. Usually if you buy a pack, they will send some extras of the strain you bought, and another free pack of 15-18.

I also got some good freebies when I bought 2 packs of TkNL5/Hz fromm the seed source. I didnt get nearly as many. 5 Americanna x Black Domina
3 Lemon Thai 57 x 87 Limepop, which is supposed to be a super potent huge plant.

It was a nice, smooth smoke. Slight sweetness to it with the terpinolene mellowing way out after a good cure. I used it for daytime physical activities. Very functional and energizing. Not a super potent plant but enjoyable.

+ 1 on the freebies, I got two packs of ssh x Tk Nl5 Haze for a total of 12 seeds. Looking forward to that one.

reading comprehension is a good thing, too bad you don't have it.
I'm not ruining this thread because you're an idiot, I joined this thread to defend him against someone who never grew his gear, then grew his gear and reported back it's trash,like you. You want to go back and forth, let's do it somewhere else.

Here is my quote defending him back in may,

can't give likes yet, but this says it all. quote teddy bonkers

Hey, we can agree on something, because reading is fundamental.
Like reading the forum rules about having multiple accounts.
Thanks for quoting/outing your other account, idiot.

Nice score on the Black Dom/NWHP X Super Skunk, I think you will be happy with that one. They are very vigorous and the buds set on thick, I have one that is super stinky and CHUNKY, not to mention very frosty.
It's a beautiful strain.

I just started some. Have you smoked any yet or are they still in flower?
