Starting to smell nice a fruity in the tent now.

Not impressed with the seeds I've started though. The Mango Tango has retarded, twisted leaves and the others seem real slow to get going. Only 1 of the Cheese Dawg seems to have any vigour.

I think the moral of the story is don't rely on your Attitude Freebies solely for a run. 3 non germs, 1 retard and 5 slow developers and they could all still be male.

Nice.... chin should be a decent yield. Up your feeding a bit.
In case you didn't already know the hairs are not accurate way to tell if there ready.

Yes I think I will yield good.

I don't keep track of when I started flower... But small things like the start of hairs turning amber I use to give myself a rough idea when she be done..... And yes you're correct she's ready for a nice sup of juice...... Buds are good too like rocks.... Peace dude

@Growan i have had mixed results from their freebies as well.
I learned that using only top breeders makes huge difference. and i would not use barneys again.
I had high hopes for the Mango Tango, but it's 3 twisted blunt ended leaves are getting it renamed Mangled Tangled.
It may however be a Triploid (or whorled phylotaxy as Sativied would say) which would make it interesting at least!

I gave somebody some advice once in a thread about Attitude's freebies. Something along the lines of 'don't order your seeds based on the freebies attached, pick the genetics you really want and consider the freebies a bonus- nothing more'.

I ordered last Xmas, and ended up with about 21 free seeds some of which turned out ok. But....The best seeds I grew out his year were the Rainbow Jones. Yes, those were the seeds I chose....not freebies. ;)

Triploid means it has 3 instead of 2 sets of chromosomes. If double penetration would naturally lead to kids from all three parents who all share half their genome they'd be triploids.

Phyllos = leaf
Taxis = arrangement

While polyploids like triploids and tetraploids often express whorled phyllotaxy, most plants that express wp do not actually have extra set(s) of chromosomes. Ie. You cannot determine polyploidy based on leaf arrangement.

That's it. That's what I meant to say. Yeah. Erm....
Either way, it's a Fuckin Mangled Tangle. I'll post a picture if it's hideousness continues to develop.

@Growan i early pollenated a few lowers of GG with some gonzo a few days ago. the goat cheese beans have been aging, so perhaps it's high time to work on carton lol. may go for different goat cheese variation- was hoping for a male gwh to X to exo, but have a few new female gwh plants germed from rare dankness beans.

:leaf:good to see @Sativied prowling about, even if he frowns upon poly-polyhybrids :-)

Oh man, real exo crossed with gwh could be a face melter. Do it.
Some of the lads in the UK thread are growing proper exo cuts, whether you can persuade one of them to selfie some beans off one or not...dunno. worth an ask.
Can you imagine? 'Moses' Goat' or some other clever biblical goat reference. ...

Pm me if you need to dispose of some of those pesky old GC beans. I'll bury them for you. ;)

Sure, look it. :D

Oh and only from selfproclaimed breeders who sell them as a new variety. imo every grower and pollen chucker should chuck and share chucks of chucks of chucks in seed and/or clone form. With the lack of competent and able breeders currently in this industry it's a good way to keep the gene pool wide and widely available.
