The Seed Collectors Thread

[cmt1984]

PipeDream,Santa Marta Gold and Punta Rosa,still float around the S.E. US as " good regs". I see Punta Rosa 3-4 times a year and the Gold about twice. If you're not an old fart you wouldn't have any idea what the stuff is. I know none of the young guys who sell it here do.

There's an old grower/toker I know who has literally saved seed from every good batch of weed he's come across for forty years. Keep 'em all labeled and dated in a chest freezer. He'll tell you he'll let you have a few,but when it comes down to it,he never can. He's just a tad OCD. Grows some excellent buddage w/ his crosses.

His house and property looks like one of those places on "American Pickers",he's got junk his grandpa hauled home back in the 30's.

thats awesome. would love to try some of his bud.

i totally understand him not wanting to get rid of them when it comes down to it...i mean dam, he's had em for so long he's gotta have a tight grip on them.

haha...maybe frank and mike from pickers could get some of those seeds of his hands...

I sware on my life i was in a thread talking to subcool about his strain plushberry..
I asked him how is it a kush strain and whats in black cherry soda that makes it a kush hybrid.
The dude came off like a real douche and now the thread is gone like a mod or sub himself deleted the whole thread wow is all i got to say.

The only answer he gave was saying" its kush because i say its kush and it smells like kush" wtf???
I never heard that from a breeder usually kush would have some type of afghan,paki,hindu,chemdawg something in it from that line.He just straight up said because of smell..
I will never ever waste money on his strain ever again since the dude came off like a douche and deleted the thread i found that shocking and funny at the same time

No reason, I was going to order one when it was a freebie, but they pulled it. Just be careful about chasing pictures. If I'm wrong i apologize, but you seem to be Just starting out and i was just going to say that instead of chasing pictures, try the different strains out and find what you like. Purple and pretty doesn't mean anything in the bowl, but Diesel tastes different from Haze and is different from the Trainwrecks. Too many people focus on looks and not quality. Just want you to get off on the right foot. Also, look for different strains so you can see how an Indica grows versus Sativa vs Hybrids.

But yes, g13 seems to have very good, strong seeds. I have some Pineapple Express going right now, VERY strong and healthy.

I have a ton of seeds already, mostly singles, but some packs as well. I don't go by the pictures as much as by the description of the strain. I have maybe 30% indica dominant strains, but most of my seeds are more on the SATIVA dominant side. I eventually want to try out some pure sativas, but I want to go through a few more grows first!

 

[wyteberrywidow]

So according to subcool because it smells like kush its a kush when it does not even have kush in its background and because he is a breeder i cant question him about...
So TO ALL PEOPLE WHO HAVE PLUSHBERRY KNOW ITS NOT A KUSH STRAIN ITS ANOTHER ONE OF SUBCOOLS MIXED AND MATCHED STRAINS..NOT SAYING ITS BAD OR GOOD BUT ITS A MUTT.IT HAS NO KUSH LINEAGE IN IT BUT YET HE STILL SAYS ITS A KUSH HYBRID LMFAO......

i saw that thread too. i was shocked by it as well...he must have woke up on the wrong side of the bed or something. i dont consider it a kush just cuz he said so, he admits to not liking kush so he stays away from it so i dont think he has the experience to start naming kushes....but i also know he has killer genetics so ill keep growing them. i try to keep personal shit out of business shit. probably wont go up to his booth at any cannabis cups/expos though after that.



its just like riot, yeah he may be a dick head and a thief...but if his genetics prove themselves, then ill buy a few.

 

[wyteberrywidow]

Im not saying the guy has bad genetics at all i was just caught by surprise after chatting with the guy and how he was..You would think he would answer the question that i asked which was"what is in black cherry soda that makes it a kush hybrid" he dodged around that and said its kush because i said so and ive been doing this for 4 decades so i know..I lmao when he wrote that because either i hit a nerve or alot of people are asking him this.
I guess he wanted to jump on the kush train because it sells..

 

[cmt1984]

yeah didnt mean to imply you were calling his genetics bad or anything...just rambling on about what i think.

i think its in the plushberry picture thread.

ive seen a couple other posts where he gets a bit snippy with people asking the same questions over and over...same with a few other people on here, its understandable i guess....and the internet tends to make some people sound rude when they had no intentions of being so...thats happened to me before. but i still dont understand how just smelling like kush makes it a kush strain...either way, it looks amazing and im pretty excited to see what comes of my plushberry plants.

 

[wyteberrywidow]

but i still dont understand how just smelling like kush makes it a kush strain...

You and me both..

 

[hempstead]

Isn't the real OG Kush not even a kush but a sativa. And most of the kush hybrids are not real kush. I am growing Dinafem Powerkush right now and this girl is mostly sativa. From what I gather most breeders are adding kush in the name to help it sell.

I could go pull up a chart for you but ill just say this.
Og kush is lemon thai x old world paki kush x chemdawg

 

[wyteberrywidow]

Man I hate Kushes and especially OG Kush and I mean the clone. It has permeated the cali scene and I just hate the flavor.
It is very potent Indica and yes the one strain I would use to try and improve that is Querkle which has amazing flavor and color but not the potency of OG Kush

My crew just located a Pink OG Kush Cutting but its hella sick and infested with bugs so it will take a while to secure a decent cutting.

Sub

Its Kush cause I say its a Kush simple thats not being arrogant, anyone growing these days at any compitant level should be able to make the same determination.
Bean Counter just asked me the same question so I let him smell the Chemdawg then the Plushberry and he could easily pick out what I term the "Kush" smell I mean its a pretty definitive odor.
Sub

As you can see this is what sub says and i find so hilarious..

I had typed a response to that thread,Plush Berry was the title, and when I hit send, the thread was gone.
Looks like Sub has been called out and he tucked his tail an ran.

sooo, sub has been breeding for four decades huh?? look at the dude, he can't be much older than me, and i'm only pushing 40 this year, so unless he came out of his momma's womb making strains and crosses, theres no fucking way that that dude has been in the game for 40 years.. WTF... i don't even think that dr greenthumb's would say that bs, and i think he's much much older than sub..
i know that there are ton's of subcool haters, and now i'm starting to see why, lol...

 

[wyteberrywidow]

Thats the reply i got from him that he been doing this for 4 decades and he has knowledge at this but not once did he give a background on the strain saying it has this in it to make it kush he just says from the smell its kush..I dont know how he gets that or where he got it from but he is wrong sorry.

i really wish that he wouldn't have closed the thread as i would love to read this.. i'm a drama mamma and i love this kind of shit, lmao..
i know that someone other than sub has a thread on here called something like.... sub, have you ever heard of a strain called black cherry soda.. its pretty old, but it should still be on here somewhere that maybe you could find out what the make up of the bcs is wyte.. gettem.. lol..

Yeah I'm sure good beans can be acquired from bagseed but as you mentioned, I don't have any idea what is what and that is my overall goal to find what I like and make it always accessable to myself. I have friend that collected beans for many years as well, but never kept them seperate except for one outstanding strain. I havee grown some of them in the past and it was amazing stuff but I have a whole lot of them and there's no way to know what to expect. Also, I didn't get any to germinate last year so they are not keeping to well. The really good stuff I intend to get some more and if I have to perhaps look into giberralic acid (sp?) I would like to try out some thai and hazes maybe go 12/12 from seed or something.

 

[Alabaster Jones]

I just saw Punta Rosa on a website today selling those strains.Does his strain look legit? I was thinking about buying some of his last packs.

http://brazilianseedcompany.webs.com/

Maximus,he's either got his pics mixed up or his strains. What he's calling Colombian Gold is the Punta Rosa and what he's calling Punta Rosa is Colombian Gold. Either way those are can't miss strains. There was always speculation they were the same strain. The Colombians would gird the plants late in it's life cycle to get the gold color.

His Colombian Black looks a lot like Esmeralda Grass,which has been grown on the Pacific coast of Ecuador and southern Colombia since the days of slavery. It's another can't miss strain. The Black was real tough to get outside of S.Florida and still passes for regs down there occassionaly. By the time it reaches the States it's got dark black/green leaf and orange hairs. Very stony,even more so than the Punta Rosa. The Gold has more of an up high than the other two,but if it's been harvested late it can knock you down. All three take forever to mature

I'm real interested in those Brazilian strains. When I was in my teens a local company had a contract to build a chemical plant in Brazil. Those guys would come back with an orange colored weed that was amazing. It was 50 bucks an O when everything else was 15-20 bucks and well worth it. Other than Thai Stick,it was the best weed I smoked in the 70's

Damn, did you go to Weed college or what?!

Good to know, I'm gonna pick up a couple packs just for the historical value. Thanks! I think the gold is sold out but the black is there, as is Punta Roja. We used to call it red hair. Took a second to recognize, ours never looked that good.
