Hello UK growers. Is there any chance any of you have pics of the Brightside Cheese cut you'd like to share? As well as ways to distinguish it from Exodus and others? Thx
I think the stink n smoking it is the only legit way to tell if its one or the other they look similiar cos exo is off of brightsides cut and i aint got it there is a few who do have the exo cut on here however idk if anyone on here got brightsides tho mate its tighter held i know that connoisseur genetics still has it truecanna used to but lost it and some offline folks got it too exo is sweeter and less stinky and bigger yielding than brightsides

Thank you. I've heard smoking is the only way to tell as well, and pictures are... not definitive. I've read it foxtails but maybe the B's cheese only a single foxtail per top. It can get some slight purpling on bud leaf tips. I've read it's lanky and spidering all over. I read it comes from a Skunk#1. I haven't grown a Skunk#1, from Sensi, since 1998 so my memory is a little fuzzy but I can picture it. The 4-way sticks out in my mind more readily. I heard there are dudes that still have cuts of that. Well, this should be fun.

Stacked calyxes not foxtails as there dense not airy and both cuts and most copys do it too its genetic

I've given the sifter a spin after a few teething issues it's up and running.

I'm happy with that but I was maybe a bit quick to press it, I've since learned that I can clean it up with static, this I'm not too concerned about its more the stuff below i want to clean.

I've run the same material for 2.5/3 hrs cleaning every 30 mins...
The top piece was the 1st 3-4 minutes.

Has anyone tried static separation, checking with a loupe there's plenty resin in the last sample that's spun for hours?

It works its slow going but u can clean it up to 99% resin heads u work it carefully and long enough using the static tech mate

Cool. I brought 4way seeds from Sensi back myself in the 90's. I had a nice pheno. Big buds but not dense. Orange funk odor. NL5xHaze was the first strain I ever grew. I still have found memories of that strain. Now, Bubbleberry from Sagamartha... I still have old school friends who think that is the best strain I've ever had; which is hard for me to believe. I've hear it's not the same these day; after the fire and then the bust. Anyway, someone gifted me a Brightside Cheese cut for safe keeping. Busy, I gifted it to a friend. He says you can already see the double serrated leaves.

Thats a skunk trait so the double serrations are not so exclusive also you can get it in afghan stuff and thai and Laos plants as well quite often show it too

Word, I figured it wasn't the only one, but at least is has one of the traits known to the B's cheese, lol. There's a lot of... drama and opinions out there about whether it is still around in the US or even whether it's different from some other cheese cuts. It's actually quite amusing.

Has anyone used ozone generators or know anything about using them?

I remember the silver bullet and a uvone from years back but they were expensive at the time and I didn't really understand it so little attention was paid.

By chance tonight I stumbled onto commercial ozone generators for £40/60 @5/20mg versions, apparently ozone kills smell, spores, mould, pathogens, equipment etc, all in it looks like a handy bit of kit for a grower.

Got any links? They sound interesting. But with all these things there will be a cost overhead with running them.

Out of curiosity mate did it come the proper old way when u got the cut ie you get two cuts one to keep one to pass on to someone else? Cos thats how it used to be/is supposed to be that cut should always be free as its how brightside gave it out should never be sold either

The cost will be minimal as it's not in continuous use, from what I can gather it's not a growing aid as such its a more killing/cleaning agent for the room, the tent, tools etc etc.
Here's a example from ebay it's 20mg, from what I've picked up that's big enough for a living room, but blitzing/overkill with ozone is method employed in operating theaters so i thought ideal for a tent and the room it's in.

Other bits and pieces I've picked up suggest that it can be used in a grow but i didn't really go into it, it’s well documented that ozone is potent to anything organic including ourselves apparently it'll fk plants up in a very short time.

Yeah mate it would fuck your plants up if they were exposed correct its just for killing smell and pathogens really its one of those things handy but with risks

Sensi lost a lot of cuts in raids years ago but deny they lost anything ... they continue to say they have been using the same mothers and fathers since they gained all Neville's stock
