Popped a full pack of sin mint cookies (fem) one germ’d and at about week 2 of flower she nannered out. The rest did not sprout. These were bought in around 17’ pack was sealed and the lot # was 27202. Just FYI

On seed runs I’m not to worried about nanners / getting some seeds unless it’s a obvious full blown herm. If it does it on clone runs then it’s gone. I’m hoping I can get her to reveg it’ll be my first attempt. I popped most of this pack back when I bought it in 2015 and none of the phenos were like this one. They were all GG4 dom long Spears of sweet pine and average smoke but this one is nothing like those. It has OG golf ball nugs down the stem and has that blue power kick to it smell wise. Hopefully the smoke is as good as the plant.


I appreciate the look out though.. just curious did you run clones of her?

No after all the others failed to germ and when the nanners showed I decided to chop and move on

Thanks for the replies fellas. Yeah I couldn't find those two years ago while watching the vendorlist over a course of a couple years so I think that ship has sailed :(. Sin city seeds used to have a website with a vendorlist but doesnt seem to anymore. Is there a place where they usually release seeds regularly or first? Drove me bonkers how they'd release like 5 packs of bluepower or something on an auction style site then nothing more.

Last question, have any of you guys ever come across another plant that was actually blue? I had veganic aliens on moonshine at buds and roses once and it honestly changed my life, both because of the color and the refreshing blueberry/koolaide taste. It was awesome. Left the same amount of trichomes in the grinder that blackberry kush seemed to and the smoke didn't dry you out, it was actually super refreshing. I'd probably sell my firstborn for a chance at that again LOL.
The problem is from what I’ve seen is they never do consistent drops where it’s almost a seasonal drop every drop. So you have to grab them where you can. On IG thinktankseedbanks gets regular drops but they only deal from DM’s and do money orders. The dank teams closed for good as their sites been down for awhile. I used to buy from them but their stock would sell it within a hour or so every damn drop :/.
On the bright side I’d hold on purchasing as their next drop looks hype as fuck. Bluepower f3, BX and f2 crosses are currently in the works so that should be a bunch of bangers coming down the pipeline

Buddy has 7 power naps going out of a pack i gave him. Nice pheno variety has a couple sativa doms. Anyone run modified mints or that purple punch cross?
I've run the modified mints I don't have any pictures on this device but if you search my posts on here you might be able to find one I'll try to remember to post a pic later. Also I sent a picture to sin City and they posted it on ig. I had two phenos from two females (didnt pop whole pack) I had a taller pheno that threw some bananas but not bad and didn't pollinate anything. But the shorter pheno is hands down best smoke I've ever seen or smoked. Purple mixed with green covered in frost. A very unique smell that's hard to describe but is def funky and sweet smelling. Buzz is one of my faves, I kept mother's of both as I did want a taller plant. I took cuts from the short one tho and I'm running them now and they seem to stretch out to pretty good size from clone. I'll lost some pics when they get more interesting very early flower right now. There is another guy on ig that runs modified mints frosty genetics I think is his name anyways sin City shared his also and he even has lab reports on it posted.

I've only run it once from seed so far but hopefully they do just as good in full size plants under de hps (last run was tester tent under 315 cmh in small pots)
 
Tried to grow out their feminized sin mint cookies. Hermies straight away. No unusual conditions, she/he looked beautiful... I know their forum cut has a tendency to hermie. Are there any tips on how to lower your chances of this happening. Really want to try and run this again. Thanks
What is your temp/humidity and what type of light and how far away is it from canopy?

Pretty sure that any breeders putting out 10-15+ crosses every few months will have herms in the pack. At least that has been my experience if you happen to find one that doesn't let us know. I will only run seeds in a test tent now since they have become so unpredictable. It sucks that no one will take the time to work and test strains before release but I think part of that is on the consumers as they want the newest hottest strain x the newest hottest strain and if the breeder waits to test gear and stablize a strain before release they won't sell as many because there are other new strains people want by then.

It is 100% the consumers fault for the shit show that is US marijuana seed making.

I mean if you go on IG you'd think by the comments that only the famous elite strains will get you high or if it ain't Cookies (trademarked, lol) it ain't shit.

I would bet money that anyone that has successfully popped over 500 beans and finished those plants in their years of growing have ran across an elite quality cultivar, especially with all the polyhybrids out there.

That hype then has other seed makers doing what the hype train is doing because they're afraid of losing sales, and rightfully so in certain respects. I've seen people turn down bud from certain strains when told over the phone, then when we pull up to them with that same bud but we'd just call it something else suddenly they'd love the buds that they instantly turned down over the phone without seeing it. Instead of blue dream it was blueberry muffins and then it's all "oh man that shit looks fire..." then they come back like 2 more times in that same night, lmao.
 
Temps were low 70s, humidity was in the 40-50% range. Amare Led grow lights (p400) they were about 18” away from light. All organic grow using biotabs
That all checks out. No temperature spikes at any point in the grow either?

If the answer is no.. you probably are just looking at plants that genetically lean towards hermaphrodism in an effort to self preserve. If a female plant has been let to over ripen it will produce male flowers.. can make a few seeds etc. Those male flowers can pollinate other strains for crossing and the seeds can be sprouted and in theory should be all female.

From my experience some plants can carry the hermaphroditic traits onto next generation. IMHO it's plants that have been stressed via heat or other conditions and put out male flowers that seems to do this. I've been successful making fully female seeds via self pollination.

Good luck on no male bananas with your next run.. that is if you're not growing for seed ✌

Another thought.. over fertilization can also stress plants and induce male flowers. Regardless of organic or inorganic feed.

Where your plants burning from over feeding at any point in the grow? IE yellowing/dying of leaves.. I can provide picture example if you're not familiar with what nutrient burn looks like.
