Are lines like Strawberry Guava , and Melted Strawberry’s solid for both taste and potency. I see stuff like Guavez 74 crosses but I’m not sure what’s what.
I almost bought a pack when my Old Family Purple seeds wouldn’t grow from being zapped at customs. I figured I better not do another impulse buy to fix my last impulse buy that went bad.
Are most of seeds being sold by the well known breeders/seed makers basically the same, quality wise?

Harry is hands down near the top of better breeders of fine bird seed then most chucking now a days .

So my answer is an infatic yes their is a difference in seeds just go ask Oni their name was made off of Harrys sweat.

Is there a cross of his that I should try first?

The guava pie is a 10 for bag appeal and terps, but the high is like a 6 or a 7. Pretty much on par or a little better than cookies. I’m sure some of the other strawberry guava crosses like the ogkb2.1 or the kushmints would pack more of a punch though. Got some (forza sour xi95)x strawberry guava for freebies with a pack of strawberry cooler I’m pretty stoked to run.

Forza Sour or SGC Bx would be my first packs but i don't know how easy they are to get now a days

That or Riff Tree

Update on final product:

I'll take some pictures and post them in the next few days, but wanted to post incase I forget.

San Sour Soci- 7/10-8/10. The better ones look nice, some of the lesser quality ones would be good weed if you live in an illegal state, but with so much good quality bud in legal states, this one leaves some to desire.

Grape Cream Cake- 6.5/10-8.5/10. A few phenos are very nice and would be keepers if I was pheno hunting. Some of the other were similar to my feeing about the lesser quality SSS.

Strawberry Guava S1- This one is 3 weeks from harvest, but it has been a great plant to grow and looks like it will turn out well. I only grew one of these big enough to almost fill out a 4x4.

During this run I also grew some cannarado seeds which I had problems with and the freebies were the only ones that popped. I know 2 isn't the best to judge from, but not so great.

I have another pack of Bloom Seeds I am going to run eventually, but growing non-feminized seeds is a huge pain in the ass and I don't have the mental energy or time to do them now. I will say that the GCC keepers were just as good as some of the White Hot Guava keepers that I found with clear water genetics.

TLDR: Found some okay ones and some good ones. I'll know more once they dry and cure. I've found it's harder to visually judge many green plants, compared to purple plants, maybe it's the contrast.

edit: I will also say that I grew these in soil. Typically I've used coco, but because I was going out of town, I didn't want the person watering my plants to have to show up everyday. So, I definitely did not push these genetics to their full potential.

Strawberry Guava S1 at week 5, looking pretty good and hasn't started to bulk or frost up yet.



San Sour Soci 7/10 and 8/10





Grape Cream Cake 8.5 keeper and 7.5/10, didn't take a picture of lesser quality one fresh. These plants all have pictures taken at day 56 of flower. Will get pictures of dried and cured flower in a few weeks.





I know the hair is out of control. I have two huskies.

Beaut!

I'd like to amend everything I said. One of my plants hermmed on me and I caught it late. every plant had 30-70 seeds, so the quality won't be as good as it could have been.

Do you know which one it was that went hermie?

It was one of the Grape Cream Cakes. It came out with 3 cotyledons and was topping itself. I had a clear water genetics plant that did that it turned out great, but this one herm'd. I didn't catch it until week 3.5-4 ish because I was out of town and had a friend watering for me.

The terp profile on the Guava S1 though is really solid though, even if it did herm it smells great.

Water stress issues maybe over/under watering?

It's possible, but like I said this one came out genetically funky in the first place. They were getting about 1/2-3/4 gallon of water every other day in 2 gallon pots fed at 1300-1500EC and proper pH. Temps float around 65-81 and RH is low, 35-50.

If you can raise your lights out temps you'll have better plant metabolism/water uptake which could raise your lights on humidity.

I'd bump the feed down to 1200 max with less nitrogen, more micros for most berry/grape genetics. If you're growing chem/sour/og they'd probably love the regiment you're currently using. You're overfeeding nitrogen trying to get your calcium/trace minerals in balance which definitely can cause things to herm. More frequent waterings, lower feeds with plain water every 2nd/3rd feed to keep from chasing those defs by feeding more.

I'm not sure how you would know that, as I never gave you a ratio of the fertilizers I used or my growing medium (which was soil not coco). The feed range, pH, temperature, and humidity I used are not the reason why one of my plants herm'd. All of those are well within an acceptable range. None of the plants showed deficiencies throughout flower or veg other than a few adjustments early on. This was genetic, not environmental.

I wasn't even talking about the herm, I know that they just happen sometimes. Those were just general things I noticed.

I can look at your pictures, what info you gave and tell you things you might not be able to extrapolate yourself. Genuinely trying to help you out.

All of your plants are showing nitrogen toxicity and are showing micro defs which are generally first seen as a calcium def but progresses from there locking out everything, eventually. It didn't get to that point because you kept feeding it just enough calcium.... but this was because you were feeding too much of everything in the wrong ratios. This is on top of having your temps/humidity off point causing your plant to have wet feet with an overabundance of food when they did finally drink it.

raise lights off temps/root zone temps and humidity

water less volume, more often with less concentrated feed with more emphasis on the micros just as the lights turn on or middle of the light cycle

build filter boxes/use pantyhose for your intakes, seal off the others completely

You'll get more weed that tastes better with less dog hair.

lol wtf. The plants were fed with a 1-5-4 solution for the last 4 weeks of flower. There isn't any nitrogen toxicity. Honestly, what the hell are you even talking about. The pictures were taken 8 weeks+ into flower so that fade is going to happen, other than the strawberry guava s1 which was at week 5, and it was fed with a half 1-5-4 and half 2-2-3 for the first 5 weeks of flower. I don't what to tell you other than you analysis of my "deficiencies" is wrong.

Yes dog hair is a problem. I have two huskies. Temperature and humidity are not ideal but not much more I can do about that right now.

If you think that they're supposed to look like that I don't know what to tell you. I tried to help you, sorry I bothered.
