It is worth mentioning tho that Breeder's prefer you really have interchangable lens DSLR's before you test. A camera that can do the strain justice by taking a photo that really does show everything due to a much bigger sensor.

To anyone really interested in testing having a nice camera is a big plus. I have tested for Subcool and Alphakronik and because of that and the successful grow and having some really nice pics.. My Apollo13BX photo is used to advertise his strain over at the attitude. My Snowdawg BX by Alphakronic actually got some mention in Skunk magazine a couple issue's back.

Having a point and shoot really doesn't do the plants justice. They may be great looking plants but it's even better when you have something to really show them off.

yeah, AKG requires a real nice camera...but most other tester requests ive seen do not. a point and shoot with macro settings is plenty if you know how to crop/edit a bit.

Not trying to get in skunk mag. But if I can take pics like cmts I would be happy so u can't say his 40$ camera isn't good enough.

So riot was totally cool, all it took was one email and a few hrs later he msgd me back and said he's resending them. Totally impressed and satisfied with his customer service. And I wasn't really expecting that but I am very happy.

My Plushberry, Belka, SSSDH, and my own cross all came out male :(
But majority males means I can kill males and crack some new seeds :)

Lol CMT, I'm running some "BlooGoo" atm. I just cracked the seeds, and they are some fast growing seedlings too, they've caught my others up already lol and they were all a week ahead of the BG's!! Do you know anything about the parents/lineage used for this strain mate?? I traded for them as the name "BlooGoo" just screamed out to me, and I just had to get them. I have all of DHS's gear apart from SweetDawg now, lol I've doubled up packs on a few too, to get the best possible selection I can for mother stock from "SAK" & "SF", man I love that place lol even though I keep spending there, :roll:...

Sorry to hear about all the males you just pulled Tardis, but thats the way though sometimes with reg's. At least the seeds you have left from those strains will be more likely to be girls now though mate :mrgreen:...

And 'Lastwood, it's good to hear you got a replacement for your failed germ's. I hope you have better luck with them mate. Keep us updated :joint::peace:

The ungerminated seeds have no less chance of being male than they did before any were planted. If anything they are more likely to be male since the same factors that made the others come out male ( breeding problems, environmental problems )may influence them too.

I guess I was being pedantic. It's a common mistake in thinking about probabilities. People tend to think the 'Law of Averages' means things have to even out and that somehow the remaining seeds 'know' that there have already been too many males and adjust accordingly.

But there is a time and place for such comments, and yes, when someone has just been hit by bad luck, it's probably not the kindest thing to point out just how bleak his prospects are. Sorry

Thanks bro. yeah I hope the smaller ones are girls as males do tend to show sex earlier than females. I do breed as well but the 4 I really wanted to try came up male. Oh and I will use the pollen, so thats looking like a Plushberry X Chocolate Rain maybe.

Twas me mate lol, you scored a goal there. It was the white paper packs that were the suspects, so you should be golden with them mate.
 
I was thinking of that cheeseband name aswell.. It got a ring to it.

Yeah I got a bunch of plants flowering under the 400 watt. I got a pre 98 bubba bx2 that's at 5-6 weeks along with a corleone Kush clone and a Larry og. These 3 are pollinated with a Julius caeser male.

I got a Chem 4 og male and a Jedi Kush unknown right now.4x corleone clones and 3x bubba clones which are all going to flower in 1 gallon pots so they all can fit under the 400 for now, I also want to see what I can get from a 1 gallon.

I will let the seedlings veg for about 3 weeks when the other plants are about done and put them to flower. I'm trying to decide what to pop next. I know mr.nice ssh is def going next along with Tahoe og.

very nice line up.

i used to use 1 gallon pots under 600 watts....i would advise against it. too much watering for me, had to water pretty much daily...plus its harder to keep the plants healthy with smaller pots. ive been using 2 1/2 gal pots and that works pretty well, im goin to 4 gal pots atm, hoping to up my yields a bit, this heat really took a toll on my yields..

I use 1 or 2 gallon pots in coco depending on the size of the plant. From now on everythings going 2 plants to 1 16 oz beercup till it sexes.

Every time I kill a male or harvest a plant I investigate the rootball and iam always surprised how little of the coco is used, most looks brande new. Tempting to use again, but I don't.

If I like the s.a.g.es smoke as much as I like the plant, it will be a keper. I don't kno what it is, its just badass. Its got narrow sativa leaves where they bow in it gets so thin its amazing it can hold the leaves out so straight. The atypical branching started young too so that means long colas

The plushberry is such a nice bush with like 18 clones but I kinda wanna flower it a big bush like it is. Probly gonna take like 10 clones wait a week and flower her.

With winter coming there's a lot of pollinations I wanna do, and some long term projects I've thought about.

next time I do pics ill show u my beastly pineaple express. Its 1st nodes foxtailed and are as big as the main stem like a mean ass sativa, its awesome, they were like a month younger than my jedis and were the same size when I flipped them all together. Its gonna be a nice yielder too I can already tell, she's just startin to frost too.

So I wanna reveg her, if I really like the smoke, ill take some cuts and get a male c99 from the pineapple pheno seeds, hit the pineapple express then bx an f1 male till I have stable regular pineapple express.

I also thought about doin chocolate rain x mns black widow, chocolate widow.. ill find a chocolaty female and a frosty ass male widow.

I already talked about the romulan and walhalla

Probably too much too do it all this winter. Probably do 2, maybe 3.
