That eucalyptus/menthol terp profile has shown up a couple times for me lately.
One Pig Whistle plant (keeper)
One Tomahawk plant ( keeper)
Pretty soon this is what I will be hunting for in the GPS packs I pop in the future
Greenpoint seeds!!

Comin from the stardawg side chem 4'ish. Hate the smell but some people really like it. You guys would probably like Moonshineman's/Raredankness http://raredanknessgenetics.com/Seeds/KUSH/CommerceCityKush.htm I think it was. His chem 4 cross to rare dankness male. Lots of that and nail polish remover and metallic smells. Some phenos smell like strong licorice. Yield is huge like you would expect with chem 4 cross. Frost is on another level. This is not my shit at all but bag appeal is crazy good and so is yield.
If these were smells I loved I would cross a male of this to Paradise Seeds Sensi Star (metal and lemon).
Edit: had wrong strain name originally. It is commerce city kush not cornbread.

Next run all greenpoint,pebble pusher and sundae stallion.
Nodes are all staggered so should be a good run

How many phenos you running? I was very curious of these got 4 packs of each because chem tends to blend amazing with forest fruit smells. Would be great if Gu would get ahold of dj's indica cut that bodhi uses and cross it to his stardawg. Blueberry and chem are phenomenal and the yield is fantastic to boot.

7 total females from 2 packs.i like taking cuts cause it gives the plant time to mature a little,plus I have 12 bucket systems so I can double up on a couple to fill it all in.
Just soaked 2 packs of snake oil 2 days ago and only 13 out of 22 popped so far.gu is slipping.

I got two Raptors. You can convert them to DE?

Yeah if you know how to wire.i used the nanolux de fixture and screwed it into the raptor and re wired the cord into it.hung the ballast remotely.
1000 w cmh is no joke.shit is a beast

Pretty low germ for sure. I bet he would help you out replacing them though and that is the good thing with him. My only qualm with him so far his method of sieving seeds. Why on earth you would ditch small seeds is beyond me. Corporate/government level thinking there and a travesty to the gene pool. Heart sunk a little when he stated that publicly. Can't tell you how many amazing strains and phenos came from tiny seeds (from bluberry lines to train wreck to I could bore you with a list)...has nothing to do with vigor, quality, or anything really. Genetic correlations do exist within lines, but for all he knows he is throwing out the best of the crop. Diversity is the spice of life and throwing away that which you don't know when it comes to germplasm's is horrible ;\ Same goes for those culling shit plants in initial stages of breeding. For all they know they are throwing the plants that give their line vigor, pest resistance, mold mildew/resistance, and you name. Don't guess in the initial stages save being picky and following intuition for later when you can go back and make changes if needed.
Look forward to reports on these man and thanks for posting your reviews.

But on the whole is this something you notice time and again or just with this lot? Seriously it has nothing to do with viability. It can within a certain gene pool, anything is possible, but it is far from a constant or even related.

First time ever had issues germinating

sounds bout right. I been getting beautiful looking plants up, even get good germ rates, and every pack has at most 3 females seems like. This is why fems and autos are popular, no wasted space or time. Thinkin of startin to try to fem one female out of every pack and see what happens, just as a small project. People mentioning the bean size, etc. I took the three smallest and palest Copper Chems and got two up lookin good and one CV LA Pure Affie and it was a small, pale bean and it come up and is startin to look good. I did it just because I was leaving the better looking beans till later. We'll see if they are something special.
From Cookies n Chem 1 pack, I got 6 females. From Bodega Bubblegum 1 pack, 7 females. No joke. Every bodega bubblegum smells like bubblegum. The cookies n Chem I have 1 stardawg dom, 1 stardawg mix with ogkb I am guessing smells, the others are starfighter dom with now ogkb sort of mix smells. Smells got more complex the last week

pleasantly surprised you use a humidity dome for cuts with your volume, etc with all your lighting, I figured you had a 36 or 48 banger cloner laying around.lol Very nice setup by the way and even though all that lighting talk is Greek to me, you seem to have it goin on.
On another note, the Maverick cured out to be Goji tasting good stone meds. Got one bean off one plant, I think due to a pinhole light leak in tent, fixed. Grew out the seed. Its bout done. I like that cross. Light chem dust on a sweetart goji berry.

sounds bout like my luck considering I don't have the Bubblegum yet and haven't cracked any CnC's yet, lol. No gripes here, Im a Chem lover thru and thru, so all the GP stuff I got or done is fine by me. Close to what I'd make if I was a doin it, more or less.

I've read about fucky germ rates a few times with GPS gear. He detailed his separation of an A batch and a B batch. If the A grade batch sells out before the new seeds are finished he puts out the B grade batch.
Hearing about these types of issues gives me slight anxiety as I've got around 30 packs of GPS gear in the fridge. Makes me wonder how many will be popped several years from now with 1 or 2 seeds making it from a pack. By luck of the draw, no decision of my own, I could have 10+ B packs in my possession.
I will note I've had maybe 1 or 2 duds out of 4 packs so maybe the issues are more isolated.
I have smaller seeds but they look mature, all passed the pinch test when I checked em out upon arrival.
The discontinued strains list growing is disappointing. Lucky 7s never in stock, gets sniped when they put 4 packs up as a restock day of, discontinued. TNT, rarely went on reverse auction, had like 4-6 packs for weeks. Sold out, not listed anymore. The TNT doesn't bother me that much since there's a fake deathstar cut going around CO. If I were willing to stick my neck out there I could get the cut locally, alas I'm not.
No heads up on discontinuation for either of these. Tell people if shits going away with a fresh batch at $45 and I bet it's sold quickly at a higher price than packs usually go for. Who actually pays full price with the auctions? Even at 25% off I'm not buying a full priced pack. If the auctions don't come back and his pricing doesn't come back to earth to reflect the absence of auctions I'll have to abandon my hope on a couple of the strains currently in testing.

I get higher rates of vigorous survival (98%+) with rapid rooters, clonex, a dome and a spray bottle of water. Keep humidity In the dome very high, barely cracked vents, a couple 5 minute stints with the dome off and wet the foliage before reapplying the dome for the first few days. Let the rooter/rockwool get a bit dry before rehydration. Gradually open the vents and extend the time the dome is off, avoid directly spraying the clones. Make the leaves suck the moisture out of the air. Super simple.
In the aero I made years and years ago I'd get about 90-95% to root quickly, the rest kind of hung out for a week longer than they should have. Could have been an error in engineering/construction as with anything I diy. I feel like giving my clones a small amount of attention with great success was worth the trade off over a lower maintenance method I'd have to fiddle with to get up to where I wanted it.

Thats great, don't see too many about. Decent odds, taken me half a pack to get a female but I seem to have a high m / f ratio nowadays no matter what I pop. She looks and sounds great, got another plant with eucalyptus flavours and its a real winner.

I didn’t know they made a 1kw cmh bulb. Very very cool. I feel I need this in my life.
Why are all the CMH fixtures sold with built on ballasts? Shit is crazy.
