I have those two strains too, but those are for my next run.. I have Limonada Rosa, Black Hole by robinhood, Wedding Cake X Banana Buttercups just sprouting. I also have a 3 week old Banana Buttercups. Hoping for good phenos. Purple Punch crosses are next, for robinhood.
Sweet! I’ve also got a couple bbc and a couple wc x bbc. Doing a grow diary on them on growdiaries.com if you want to see how they turn out! Monroegrow is my username on there as well as my insta. Do you share your grow anywhere?

i was hyped for the purple punch crosses until I learned purp punch is known for being pretty weak in potency :(

Like Bankscotti, I'm aware that there is a running theme in the community that purple punch can be weak in both terms of potency and terp profile, but I could swear that there are at least a few good crosses out there with it.

Does it make a difference if it's the mom or dad?

Can any one chime in on this?

I too was thinking of picking up some Square1 purp punch crosses and a couple from other breeders out there, but the jury is still out for me.

Anyone get an e-flyer for the Robin Hood drop that's coming within the next week?

I heard it's purple punch crosses but I wish I knew exactly which ones.

Last couple drops I've been get the Terpy flyer right when the drop happens; time and day of or even a couple minutes after. And I've pretty much given up hope of ever having my follow requests for both Square1 and Robin Hood accepted on instagram.

Duudde, my wife has put a 6-month ban on all seed purchasing until I, "grow the ones I have!"

But she doesn't understand that I need every BBC cross or I else I will die.

And thank you @Nubia for posting the flyer you totally helped me figure out my purchases over the next couple weeks.

i’m debating between bbc or gg4 kinda tired of wedding cake honestly but the La kush cake does sound nice, hopefully terpy puts up a few more runtz pack if so then i’ll skip the punch & just get more runtz. the purple punch myth still bothers me a tad bit

edit: the apple fritters look nice too so i’m in a pickle lol

Well from what I gather at this point, I think purple punch in a cross can be great. Couple of well respected members here have commented that purple punch and oreoz have incredible bag appeal but lack terps and/or potency, however when crossed with other strains can be fire. For instance Ocean Fruit (Brisker OG x Purple Punch) is supposed to be absolute fire, and it is on my list to swoop as soon it becomes available. But I would pick up Brisker OG on it's own too.

I definitely have enough wedding cake and runtz crosses, so I too am leaning towards the BBC and La Kush for this next drop, maybe the GG4 if I don't have it crossed with purple punch already.

It's tough, I just don't know enough about the specific cuts from Square1/Robin Hood that they use in their respective crosses. If I were to skip out on one of their drops, this would be the one. There's so much out there right now that I can't justify anything but proven top notch genetics. And when I say proven I mean in capable hands, not mine. I'm still an absolute novice, but I do want the piece of mind that if things go wrong or don't live up to expectations it's on me, not the beans.

I'm actually looking at Banana Runtz from Solfire to compare results with that of BBC x Runtz. Rather pick up a pack of that before BBC x PP, but if half packs are available on this next Robin Hood drop I won't hestitate to swoop the Iced Wildberry.

Also if you're like me and lack experience it makes matters even worse; I have never pheno hunted, but it sounds like a lot of fun, and apparently Square1 beans are pretty congruent but Robin Hood are more of testers?... So maybe better to pop entire pack of Robin Hood to hunt for a keeper versus 2-3 beans from a Square1 pack. And if that is the case, it could be worth it to consider all the crosses from Robin Hood just for pheno hunting. I'm not there yet, so I will be extra picky, for now.

Bottom line for me is after it's all said and done, I agree with some of the more experienced members on here that nothing is worth more than $150 a pack. I feel like Square1 and Robin Hood sit well within that range, for now, so I'm swooping while they remain there. I mean I just picked up 6 pack fem of Bahama Berry off of GLO for $75, and that's pretty much guaranteed strawberry fire. Whereas I have no clue with these purple punch crosses coming this next Saturday; I don't have access to pics or info of any kind other than my faith that they wouldn't drop anything bad, but how good remains the question?
