Sorry, I read that on AFN, on the Mephisto official IG it says Wookie is Alien v Triangle x Skywalker.

Looks like a short list for tomorrows drop, glad I stocked up when I did.

yeah, Canada and the EU seem to have more choices this time around. there's only a few strains at this point I'm interested in, so I'll keep watching and waiting.

Popped one Fugue State, Day 1

Nice! I look forward to hearing how it goes. I've only got two Meph strains in my line up for the summer outdoor, a HubbaBubbaHaze and a Mango Smile. I'm also popping an AvT and Doube Grape for a friend (and about a half dozen other strains from a few other breeders), but I'm having a hard time controlling the heat and humidity in my sprouting space this year. Hopefully they'll all survive this first vulnerable week, so far only one simply didn't pop at all.Popped one Fugue State, Day 1

Is it too hot or not hot enough, humidity can be controlled at least until they break on through, right now I'm using sandwich zip lock bags over solo cups to keep them moist. Man I went on a popping spree, got too much going on lol
Looking forward to seeing how your Mango and Hubba turn out outdoor, do you have a green house?

Is there really such a high demand on them or its shortage regulation to build a hype like old school italian brands? It feels like you re buying an exquisite vintage coffee table with the catalogues and everything.
Gotta have one go, at least pfffff
Still waiting, patiently

Opening next Monday (US store), and they post before hand what's being released/restocked. Make your decisions before the site goes live so that you don't waste time picking and choosing.Is there really such a high demand on them or its shortage regulation to build a hype like old school italian brands?

You can find other banks that sell their stuff too (list on their website) but you generally don't get freebies or the extras.

I'd say that's the most crucial piece of information, but they post that as well. Usually 12PM Eastern

I am in exactly the same boat. I've been using plastic domes to cover them to trap humidity, but twice a day I have to take them off for an hour or so to dry out or they'll be too wet too long. Early on I got paranoid that everything went sideways and started a few more as insurance, now it looks like all of them have popped and this point I don't know what I'm going to do with them all.
I don't have a true greenhouse, but I have a "high tunnel" because I need bug netting where I live, and I have plastic up to keep the rain off. I live in a place with very windy winters, so anything that's going to stay up all year has to be built well. First year I'm using that structure, we'll see how it goes.

Yep, I was like " 1 of this, 1 of that, 2 of this, 3 of that"... It's nice having options lol
Do you mean seeds that haven't come yet or seedlings?
I got one as a Christmas gift last year, haven't put it up yet. Not sure if I'll run autos in there though, might keep them in the tent and run LED to keep things cool

I cover them before they pop, and then if the RH is below 45% I'll keep the covers on except for some breaks for a couple more days. I'm just making this up as I go, it's not anything I've heard about as an established technique, it's just me trying things. So far it works.
Greenhouses can be awesome, but they can also be a lot to manage.

Mephisto are in a class by themselves in the world of autos.

That's what I've found so far, but I'm trying some different breeders this summer. Have you grown Dutch Passion, or RocBud strains?

I grew Rocbud Passion Punch and Purple Bastard Eater. Both are great. If Mephistio was 9/10 then I would call RocBud a solid 7 and Dinafem an 8. I really like RocBud but Mephisto has 10 - 12 years under their belt and have solid established lineage. I never tried Dutch Passion. Do you recommend them?

Have only done one small DP run, and it was an indoor that went badly. But that said, having taken similar abuse, a Mephisto Mango Smile and a Dutch Passion Critical Orange Punch ended out of similar quality. That's all I have to go on so far. This summer I popped a RocBud Purple Scoop, a couple of DP strains, a couple of Mephs, and even a Twenty20 auto. Also some Fast buds, people seem to be giving them more props lately.
A few years back I compared Mephisto to Fast Buds, Sweet Seeds, and Barney's Farms, and the Mephs were definitely in a different league in terms of frostiness, potency, and flavor. I'm wondering if anyone else is catching up lately.
