How long do you let the fresh shucked beans sit in the fridge before packaging?

I dry em and give them at least a week in the fridge. But I will add that I have taken seeds right out of a fresh bud and planted em...and they popped. I have also had seeds germinate while still on the plant....that was crazy to see.

Ever notice how you never hear of one report of herms on @Useful Seeds ? Know you won't give your fem process secrets out, lol, do you have any pics of your Banana Kush S1's? Lost a label again, I can tell I think by stem rub, etc, but just wonderin, thanks.

Not from his fems, but the Genius Thai Extreme F2's he made. There were hermie's in those. I had one herm so bad, it was like half the plant was a male,lol. And yes I do have pics to prove it if anyone doubts what I say. And don't let my almost non-existent post count fool you. I been around for awhile now.

understood, but I wouldn't have taken a chance on any thai, especially indoors. Having said that, thanks for the report for future reference

tbh i would expect that from an F2 of almostr any thai. i am not knowledgeable on the background of genius thai particularly, but given F2s in general are more likely to throw a variety of things from both parents genetic backgrounds than F1 it doesn't surprise me the notorious hermie traits of thai plants would come thru in that generation. with F2 it is kind on you to be selective and expect many more outliers, including negatives. i don't think this falls on the breeder other than informing ppl of the parental lineage. as bodyne said tho thanks for the report, as this helps other people popping F2s of that cultivar to be more alert

Smell update.They both have this electric limey cleaning agent scent.Like lime pledge.You have to stem rub #2 to get it.#1 all you have to do is brush by the plant and the smell is prolific.If I stem rub it,it's intoxicatingly loud.Haven't had any plants in my garden with this smell profile.
Still have yet to get to the smell/taste canna charts.That's about as descriptive as I can get atm.I do know this...#1 is loud and much frostier than #2 at this point.

Forgot to say yesterday. I grew 2 of them. The other one was a perfect plant. No intersex, fat rock solid buds. Fruity smell.

been gone too long.
Happy new year useful
.What’s the new flavors coming up?

Ohh Boy That chocolate trip F4 looks good!

Banana Kush S1

3 weeks in flower. Landos stash. One smells like lavender, the other is the worst body odor ever!!! Anybody else have allergies pop up during flower?

Sorry ya got a Thai lady boy out of one of them freebies, i'm also glad ya got one that was on point. I appreciate the feedback. For the record, your post count does not affect my thoughts about yer post...I get it.

Hey useful I am wondering if you think your upcoming seeds will do well outdoors in northern america. Or if anyone has grown chocolate diesel crosses outdoors let me know how it went.

It really depends on where you are in North America. A latitude and what kind of weather you normally get in September and October would help tremendously. I'd say they would do ok outdoors structure wise. Not the strongest but way better than ogs.

I didn't have a plant finish before 68 days of 12/12 from sexually mature clones on the s1. I'd suggest the chem d cross from what I know is getting released based on fastest flower time. If you're guerilla I'd make damn sure no one is likely getting within a quarter mile of your plot or area cause, boy, these stink. I had to bring in an extra 12 inch carbon filter when I was running these gals cause I could smell em in my lung room.... I am never not running ecsd so take from that what you will.

Yes my eyes always red
.. even my dog has issues during floweing lol

I am around latitude 40 and it usually rains quite a bit late september and later. In 2018 my area had record rainfall around 50 inches I think, so I think I might run into problems this year as well.... I'm looking for the best value fem genetics I can find that will also do well outdoors, so if anyone has suggestions please message me. Preferably US and Canada vendors.

I wish you luck. Very few are breeding strong outdoor plants nowadays, let alone making fems.

I'm a bit farther north than you and I have had dismal luck with modern indoor strains outdoors. Most won't finish before frost gets them or are mold magnets as a result of indoor breeding for dense indoor flowers.

I am trying out some cannabiezien tree of life bx out door this year, they claim it's done by the end of September. Time will tell. They are very reasonably priced on dc seed exchange. They are not fems, but you might want to check out what they offer and check out their instagram as well.

Beanhoarder on hempdepot has a regular line made for outdoor. I have no experience with it but I'd assume it's up to snuff.

As far as fems go for real outdoors, not backyard growing, it might be best to look dutch. I know Dutch passion has a large selection of strains geared towards outdoor hardiness.

Good luck out there boss. Guerilla growing is usually a waste of sweat, money and time if you're not running multiple spots and lots of plants ime.

Thanks. I may end buying from the useful drop and some others anyway. Will be sure to document the whole process for the forums.

I heard, that tree of life bx came free with some orders in the past month from both glg and dcsc. Good luck.

Thank you so much. I thought I was going crazy because NE Oklahoma has no pollen count on anything right now. I read an article in Leafly that briefly talked about this issue but they were uncertain why industrial workers had problems when all the plants were female. I react to perfume as well, so I guess its more of an irritation than an actual allergy. I don't care how bad they smell, my nose will have to adjust. That lavendar one really has my heart!
