Yeah these seem to be a little cursed but you can kinda see from the pics the really mangled one I still don't know if it will live or how it will develop but I got a good cutting of it and the others I have cloned are fast rooters and problem free plants that have the most beautiful leaf structure I've ever seen. I wonder what ever happened to the other guy who was growing these (meda juana?) last I remember they were sprouts. Anyways that sux about the chocos i think I'm going to buy those seeds this weekend and maybe some that jackberry too. All the sudden I want some seeds if I can get some more I want to buy some more $ from the doc also since everything else I want seems to be always out of stock everywhere else.

yah, i hear you about beans being out of stock.. my boy went to the dam a few years ago and he couldn't stop talking about martian mean green, and everywhere its out of stock.. and im looking for g13 x widow by mr nice, and the same thing on that one.. i am sure there are a few others that i want but can't think of at the time as well..
i definitely recomend any of sannies gear, very good genetics and can't beat the prices.

at hemp depot they had a ton of the g13 widow crossed with all sorts of different strains for around 30$ I think. Not exactly what your lookin for but maybe close and affordable. I've ordered from there they had good shipping stealth and speed. Im surprised the Choco and freebies are still available though to tell you the truth and I can never get my hands on DJ short's BB.

no problem that's the connasuer genetics or however you spell it. Used to be all the rage at potpimp but I see he doesn't carry any of this gear anymore and seedboutique is all out of his sssd they had listed like a couple weeks ago. I hear that people get their seeds from them but never personally used them.

Well why im at it something I overlooked somehow...Racer the super cannalope from DNA is g13hazexcannalope just resaw that seed browsing:)

I wanted to make an update because something strange/cool happened. The one that survived the initial high temps and than the drop from the light has preflowers coming out everywhere. The clone also has preflowers and what's funny is the Mikado says right in the description "preflowers are evident making sexing a breeze" well my clone has been under12/12 for like 3 weeks now and nothin. the querkle sexed last week or something so hopefully this is a female. Since the Mikado didn't respond to the topping with 4 but 2 tops, I decided to put the clone in veg again and flower the plant because it's too big in need of transplant and for the reason above. So IDK if that will cause problems with the clone or not but if it does oh well. I am planning on sticking at least 2 dopes in flower this week sometime with the cannalopes coming down. They will be accomanied by the Mikado and possibly a clone from a local grower. That might leave me with some extra dopes especially if I get some females but I didn't realize they were females when I planted and the other 2 aren't as vigorous anyways. Might keep them as mommas and test them out later, who knows. So if you read all that than Iwill reward you with this..finally I may get the strain I've been looking for!!

So I have clones of all the dope seeds now. They were transplanted into soil and I transplanted the second dope into the flowering room. The one that got hurt did end up dieing but like I said I got a clone of it so it's all good. Here's the pics of them.

Interested in your grow, but I gotta wonder, why did Dr. Greenthumb give out seeds of a strain that isn't even presently offered on his site (out of stock) as a means of proving himself? At the same type, he's pushing all his S1 "elite clone-only strains" on all the boards... posting about how great his OG Kush and Chemdawg seeds are. Why not let us see some grows of the genetics that he's actually been selling on his site??

Where are the OG Kush, Chem #4, Cheese, and Trainwreck grows? That would be a real test since everyone knows what those strains are supposed to look like. Surely by now there must be at least a few people who've grown out his versions of these clone-only superstrains???

Whatever "The Dope" turns out to be, there's really nothing to confirm, since it's the Doc's own strain. I would bet that customers are calling him a lot more about the OG, Chem, and Cheese. Let's see if those beans are legit!

well I think the main reason is publicity. By giving out beans to a lot of people word of mouth will spread and some of us will be return customers. To me that says a lot of what he thinks of his gear. He never questioned how they would be grown or gave them to people who were using inferior genetics to make his look better. From word of mouth I have heard so many good things about his gear. I think that his prices are the main thing that drives away customers, but at the same time quality genetics are definately worth the extra $ and by showing his gear from unbiased viewpoints everyone can see how it stacks up. In all fairness I am not sure that these beans were all out of stock when he gave them out, the dope wasn't even on the order form yet. Everything has been on sale and you can still pick up his c-99 and other elites and I think that people hitting the doc up about those elites already know about the doc and know where to find the stuff they want. The doc said that this strain is supposed to be his best yeilder and all the time that he's spent developing the parents he has something to be proud of. What better test would there be to try greenthumb seeds than these?

oh yeah and how can he prove himself by sending out seeds from cuttings? They may be great strains but the doc didn't have anything to do with breeding them that's why they are elite cuttings. He has access to them is all almost anyone could make those seeds if they did, doesn't mean they are a master breeder but with the docs strains, he can prove himself through the outcome because they are a product of his work.

"oh yeah and how can he prove himself by sending out seeds from cuttings?" - He proves that he's not ripping people off by selling bunk seeds that are being misrepresented as S1's of clone-only strains.

"He has access to them is all almost anyone could make those seeds if they did" - Wrong again... First of all, how do we know he really has access to these cuts? Because he's charging $200 for 10 beans, so it must be true?? Also making S1's isn't as easy as flipping a light switch. If if were as easy as you imply, everyone would be selling OG and Sour Diesel S1's. It's not as easy as you think to stress and self polinate and wind up with decent seeds that aren't prone to going hermie. Doc has also made a point of claiming that all his fems are true fems with no hermies. Let's see it.

Proving your breeding skills is one thing.... proving that the bulk of the beans you sell are legit is another thing. I'm frankly a lot more interested in whether the $200 I spend with Dr. Greenthumb on Chemdawg #4 will actually get me some true Chemdawg #4. I've seen at least one post stating that a customer was not that impressed with Greenthumb's OG, so that's why I asked. There are a lot of sites selling b.s. beans. Doc is claiming that his OG and other elites are the real deal. I guarantee the bulk of traffic on his site is because people are searching for these clone-only elites.

Also - I'm not saying the Doc should send out any free seeds at all. But where are the successful grows from the paying customers?
