Greenpoint seeds!!

Did not know they had problems, i don't really buy their bud as i don't need any more flowers but their seeds seem to always turn out fire.

They have a real nice setup and some decent growers, you sure they got all those problems you say? They are pretty transparent about their flowers as they are constantly posting pictures on IG of their flowering plants.

Here's a picture from their IG https://www.instagram.com/p/BlWhdyFlVUi/?taken-by=raredank

You remind me of this commercial, the way you go into threads and claim all this crap only to be made to look like a constant jackass, you must actually enjoy it.

I saw it with my own two eyes when I interviewed there. Granted, that was over a year ago. They may have gotten their shit together since then considering they laid off 90% of the grow staff twice since then

yea, couple yrs ago, somebody was selling their gear on FB, supposedly a worker, by pm. Im sure those side deals with a sticky fingered employee got found out, prolly why they cleaned house. Some of the best smoke i ever had was some of their gear crossed by some club, can't remember the name, couple yrs ago, Scotts OG x Ox. But, JME. Still got a pack of LeeRoy from 6 yrs ago. Was a huge bldg they posted on IG though, didn't think it was just the offices, thought it was a big operation, but couldn't quite tell by the pic. Sorry off topic.

Ghost Town F1, F2, F8 are all still Ghost Town. That's what I said. No where did I say results would be the same from them all.

First, Ghost Town isn’t a strain. It’s just the name applied to the offspring from a specific cross. Strains, as in stable line bred lineages, largely don’t exist in this world of F1s. This isn’t a knock on Gu, it’s just a fact of cannabis breeding.

Second, Ghost Town F1, Ghost Town F2 and Ghost Town F8 are all going to be different from each other. Even Ghost Town F2s will be different from other Ghost Town F2s with different parents selected. The name doesn’t mean much.

Third, Ghost Town F2s are going to show much larger phenotypic variation than the F1. It’s very possible that the selected phenotype from the F2 doesn’t even show up in the F1. Showing a picture of an F2 as a representative of the F1 is a misrepresentation.

That’s why this whole notion of “strains” and their names is meaningless in most cases.
 
Their facility is huge. They usually let people go in December or January when the market is very slow(pounds are usually wholesaling for about $150 to $200 at that time) and they can't make payroll on a full crew.

Do you grow cannabis? How many gps beans have you popped?
 
Do you think it is better practice to give a different name to each filial generation?

Which generation do you consider a cross to be a strain?

I’ve grown cannabis since I was a teenager. Have I grown GPS? Nope. You want my seeds? I’m happy to trade em cuz I have no desire to pop them anymore.

Also, when studying plant genetics at uni, I grew thousands of plants including multiple F2 lines (some phenos look vastly different from the F1s), and lines selected up to the F5. I’ve seen first hand how much variation can occur in plants selectively bred despite similar origins.

I don’t think a different name is necessary. But I do think correctly identifying the filial generation is necessary.

As for when a cross is a strain, that depends a lot on how good the selection has been. If the selection criteria is consistent, it could probably be pretty stable within a handful of generations.

Wait, what, huh?

You haven’t grown any GPS?

Hmmm....

No i dont want your beans-i thought maybe you had a bad experience w/gps but in reality you've never ran anything from this guy's menu-maybe iam insane but i pop beans, run'em& clone'em & if they're great i run'em again & again-no matter who's name is on the front of the package

Yet you don't have any pics or reviews up.
Kinda unfortunate because your posts can be informative but your delivery pushes people away from your msg.
Its just weed and its just gardening. It doesn't warrant the vitriol and personal insults displayed here.

Exactly tang-guy hasnt grown a thing then you have no data or 1st hand experience to form an opinion-i dont give a shit how many books you read at the uni-thats like askin a vegetarian how good the steaks are at ruth chris

What vitriol? What personal insults? I had one post where I admit I took things too far and went somewhere personal. I try to avoid that as much as possible, because, honestly ad hominem attacks are the sign of someone unable to develop a coherent argument. I’ve been the target of multiple personal attacks on here, but ignore them.

I actively try to keep things as close to facts as possible. If something’s my opinion, I try to make it clear it’s my opinion while also explaining my reasoning behind my opinion. If I’m unsure of something, I try to make that clear as well. I admit, I’m terribly blunt, and it rubs people the wrong way. Oh well.

I think that's typical for any location during this time of yr. Maybe not quite that low but the outdoor growers flood the market.
A lot of indoor growers use this time for spring cleaning and maintenance. Or at least they do in this region.

And which other dispensaries did you use for your other clones or were they sourced somewhere else. I know there's numerous clone shops in denver, most of them have average to below average offerings. Dispensaries have a invested interest to not give you their best genetics.

I thought you quit this thread. How many times are you going to just fuckin repeat the same shit? No one cares. Move on with your life.
