Seen enough peeps here talk about mean gene gear to warrant a thread, I do say, so let's see what you're growing!
El Aleph Seed Co is who I got my Freeborn through.(elalephseedco@protonmail.com) – great transaction TBH. He had some great deals at the time and I wouldn't be surprised if they were extended.Why hasn't this been made already? Anyone know of good seedbanks carrying Freeborn Selections other than:
Speakeasy
Neptune
&
SeedsHereNow
?
No doubt! I picked up a pack of those thru regenerativeseeds... ended up with 2 ...kinda ended up lucking out... guy said he sent them but didnt have tracking # when i emailed and asked for it since they didnt arrive for several weeks around the beginning of covid... he then tells me a story about it falling under his car seat and sends another order... the day after he sends the 2nd order the 1st order showed up... then later the 2nd... he also sent some freebies a black lime reserve x testarossa cross... they look like fun... sincerely - i will say regenerative has awesome customer service and i would order from them again...El Aleph Seed Co is who I got my Freeborn through.(elalephseedco@protonmail.com) – great transaction TBH.

I saw someone on IG post a Freeborn Selections pack with a seed count of about 15. Decided to check mine and...
It feels so good to see such a spirit of giving.

The massive seed count, AND the grow pictures coming out of that cross lately really make the purchase feel special. Come on, 2021 outdoor season!I've been eyeing a pack of the ghost x sky jaro for a while but have too many seeds as it is. Seeing all those extra sure sweetens the deal though.
Thanks for sharing, I checked out their page and will highly consider using them next time. Great prices and selection of Freeborn, Emerald Mountain Legacy, and HBK. I like that 15% of all purchases go to fund seed preservation projects.No doubt!

Mine was so tasty alsoHey bud,
I was surprised there was not more mention of freeborn also.
For less expensive freeborn try el aleph seedbank - no website yet but you can get the email and get a full list on his instagram. Some of best priced.
Regenerativeseeds carries them usually and decent prices but they are out of stock now.
Speakeasy seedbank had the latest release but it was 200. Grape lime bx i think.
I got the freeborn selections cherry west bx (cherry west x (cherry west x cherry limeade)) going now. It is an f3 and i am making some f4s. Some of the sweetest herb. Incredible taste cherry lime ish. Like cherry sprite. Great color and resin production. Avg yielder, exquisite herb!
Attached some pics not pro pics but this is cherry west.
Take care!

Unbelievable smell and flavor straight gas skunk and lime alike skittles or starburst and so terps all oil when you press her she’s unstable for like a week straight sauce so only press large amounts into jars and puffco or smoke very low temp I find even low temp I lose that flavor she best enjoyed in a joint in my opinion she leaves you smelling like weed inside your mouth nose and clothes lol bugs weren’t terrible an dif you keep up on thinning as she gets thick that will help prevent bugs and make air flow better preventing Botrytis which she wasn’t to bad to until late late and no pm
I have limepop x skyjaro very excited about possibly being even more limes then this which would be awesome
I ran sky cuddler very stretchy maybe I should of fed more but even inside I wasn’t impressed one pheno did Better outside wish it was the pheno I put in the ground oh well nice bud beatiful nice resistance against pm and Botrytis no bugs so that was all good but the yield was weak terps are nice kinda tangy not sour and not gassy but old school I’m assuming what is kush flavor it’s good but I like the kush or of that has a little more gas nose to it in rosin she’s straight out the press crashing her self into crumble sauce consistency with those volatile tangy terps very floral flavor strong not my favorite

I have seen him on a bunch of different podcasts. He's an interesting guy and I don't want to go out on a limb here but he seems like he likes to spin a yarn.Mean gene on potcast is a good listen
Can you please explain this yarn-spinning?I have seen him on a bunch of different podcasts. He's an interesting guy and I don't want to go out on a limb here but he seems like he likes to spin a yarn.
Here's a question why is some his stuff priced at 300ish and some at 100? I can't tell cause I don't know his gear well enough but maybe the less expensive stuff are F1's and the expensive ones are his stabilized genetics?
Brother those are AMAZING plants and great pics! My mouth started to pucker as i was looking at them the way it does when i hit that cherry west bx!

It seems like those should be good brother. The nice thing about freeborn is that the outdoor environment where they are bred is harsh enough that the freeborn crosses usually handle a bit of variance and extremes in terms of heat, cold, dry, wet, from what i have seen. Also, you are very close to the same lattitude where bred - in norcal somewhere. the ghost og x sky jaro looks like a monster. I will be growing mine out soon.I'm still new at this and trying to figure out who the great breeders are, mostly from reading but I'm pretty sure Mean Gene is the real deal so I picked up a pack of Ghost OG x Sky Jaro from regenerative.
I'm at about 39 north so I'm assuming that would be a good thing for outdoor next summer?
Gorgeous!Rosin was pressed on low temp plates 185f
