Girl Scout Cookies

[b00m]

Looking great there OrganicBuds and I bet you can smell those girls a mile off

Edited my comment to not drag this thread down. Thanks for sharing the outdoor pics. I'll put some dry pics up when mine are done.

My main qualm is that your claiming things you know nothing about. Which leads to further misinformation.

There are three possible cuts. OGKB, Forum, and then the Animal. There is no Platinum, or we would know. It's just properly grown cookies. So please stop spreading misinformation.

Abja Roots is right on.

More than likely the Platinum cookies is 1 of the 3 cookies that was after-the-fact labeled 'platinum GSC' by a dispensary to make it more appealing.

If my memory serves me correct, OGKB left posts saying that dispensary sold a couple of his as "Platinum Cookies" on the first 20 pages of this thread. ( I can dig it up) - but obviously many dispensaries are known for putting platinum before a strain name, so it could be any of them.

 

[GET MO]

just a rating level clubs put on weeds, platinum is top shelf, regular name is good shit, n whatever on 'special' is the lowest quality, lots uh times still some good weeds.

Well...you're going off what you've seen on here, we're going off what we see in our gardens, so it's not really an opinion at that point.

And mmj916 just a few months ago you posted about how wifi is the best og and all the others are the same, not to mention the thread was talking about how OG's and hype strains (which you included GSC) are taking over and asking why? Well if you really had "PLATINUM, ANIMAL, & THIN MINT" you'd understand why that's what people are asking for. So I highly doubt you have the Animal, let alone two cuts that are non-existent.

Your argument you've put forth, lacks merit. Your comments fail to show the pertinence of the information you bring up, and how it relates to the discussion taking place. As I previously said, yes I enjoy the wifi, an og hybrid, more than I enjoy "pure" og's. That has nothing to do with this conversation - at all.

Moving on,

FACTS:

1) Last week, Harborside was offering clones labeled as GSC by 2 different nurseries (Dark Heart & Mountainside Organics)

2) Last week, Harborside had trays labeled "Thin Mint GS Cookies", from M.O., for $40 per clone

3) During the same time period last week, Harborside also had trays labeled as "Platinum GS Cookies", from DHN, for $50 per clone.

4) Mountainside Organics has posted on other forums, stating that they purchased 2 different phenos of GSC (which they refer to as platinum & thin mints) earlier in the year 2012.


OBSERVATIONS:

1) The DHN cut, labeled as "Platinum GSC", (aquired by someone in my circle) looks slightly different from the "Thin Mint GSC" cut. It could be possible that they are both the same cut, but differences between DHN's mother room environment & the environment the previously verified Thin Mint cut is siting in COULD account for the visual differences. The DHN cut and the existing Thin Mint cut would have to both be raised in the same environment to make an accurate assesment based on veg characteristics.


I hope that makes my post a little clearer. I'm not trying to argue anything, all I'm doing is stating some facts. Testing and documentation will sort out what is what.

I find it humorous that you're trying to come at me with an intelligent passive aggressive tone, while obviously missing the ignorance in your dunning-kruger esque statements. You said my argument lacks merit, but then you go on to name the weed walmart as your source of cuts. And to date, 0 yes ZERO, have come forward and said I got the real cut from *** but MANY have said they bought over priced fakes.

BTW FACTS are verified bits of information provided by experimentation, you my friend are going off hope and LABELS, not fact. And your observation is of a vegging plant so how are you going to claim it as such and such, without ever growing it to the end?

The real facts are this...1.there's no Platinum Cookies, its a rename 2. "thin mints cut" same boat......3. HH$&DH have been verified only to have fakes, may have changed now, but as of a month or so ago a close friend got something that's definitely not GSC from them.....4. ALL these could very well be real, but I just wouldn't say for sure without having end product verified. Which is why I appreciate you saying "LABELED". Pictures always help though...so what's up let's see all these cuts.

And what happened to your Animal? Love how that somehow just failed to be mentioned even though it's the only one I'd care about. To this point it's kinda like you're like a kid at show and tell failing to show, so put up and I will happily retract everything and everyone can point and laugh.

This page is pure fuckel. Talking about how you're life sucks is cool and all but I know from personal experience if you take a hit that puts you on your ass you just pick yourself up and work twice as hard (credit to Y4P for helping me realize this). If you "live2gro" be about it, or you may end up (like) alone.

Now how about we get back to the cookies eh?

Thats right Unknown! This break-in was 3 years ago. My point being....It doesnt matter how hard you get hit...as long as you get back into the game. But what I refuse to do is take a shotty strain that finishes in 8 weeks just to get the dough to make up for my losses.
Call me crazy.... but I insist on only the best of the best. Even if I only break even with long flowering sativas.

The smart thing to do for me financially is take an 8 week indica and SOG the hell out of it to get a lb per light, but I take a 14 weeker and get 12 ounces per light. WHY? One Word....QUALITY.

Why this conversation on the GSC thread?
Because I appreciate the fact that good growers will sacrifice the yield for a quality product which I can attest to is extremely honorable. If the GSC is a small yielder, but top shelf smoke, and its not being grown because of the yield...... then growers have some growing up to do themselves.

When money becomes the main factor in determining strain and style grown....You get mexi-brick strains flooding the market for shwag genetics.....Beasters flooding the market harvested at week 7, unflushed, for kindbud genetics.

When love,compassion, and learning become the main factor in determining strain and style grown...you get the Cookies.
Its not about the yield. Its about the quality.
to all who grow for quality over quantity. You are the silent heroes of the cannabis industry.

i was just stating facts lol.. im actually doing alot better .. just was pissed that day.. was thinking about how fucked up everything went over the past 6 months...

but anyways.. this GSC u got unknown is looking like pure fire... looks like it would be great for sog or scrog..

im a go hard starting in september. ya and my mom only let me back in just for 3 months.. sept being 3.. so gotta look for a new place asap.. hoping can find cheap enough rent to be able to afford electricity.. i wish i could fine some sick clones like this in my area!!

Whatcha mean ??? hell he's already advertising that his super breeding skills are gonna be pumpin out GSC beans soon on a cut he has that isn't even verified ....


not to mention ,,,just because you make seeds from a particular cut doesnt mean the offspring are going to be even close...

a particular cut is just that .....

a cross with a desirable cut can breed garbage that needs to be tested and verified before any expectations can be made...
simple as that ...there are no guarantees...

Jesus does the MJ scene suck ass today .....

It's a bunch of baggie pants wearing lil shysters wrapped and double dipped in materialism totally void of any brain matter.

 

[Cabron]

I 'd like to add that this is the USA MJ scene only ....
The rest of the world isn't as fucked up as us.....

There's a saying in Europe my Gal told me about ..


"Americans know the price of everything and the Value of nothing "


I'm starting to see the wisdom in that .....it really does represent this
country more and more ...

 

[coastal]

Validity of cuts aside, did you really expect people to not start selling girl scout cookie seeds asap? Did you honestly not see that coming from a mile away? People have been doing this exact same thing on seedbay and similar sites for years and years... we are kind of beating a dead horse at this point imho.

Say what you want about the USA MJ scene, I'll take a diesel, kush, chem, or gsc over some likely bland, boring, and floral euro bud any day of the week. Same goes for many seeds.

Anyone else notice how slow GSC vegges? Like Bubba slow. From what I can tell, that is its main hinderance yield-wise.

 

[Abja Roots]

I've not noticed that it veg's slow at all. Even if it did, the stretch would more than make up for it. It does take a second to catch after rooting/transplant. Once it does though, it seems to take off. Others can chime in.

As to those mentioning "Thin Mint", "Platinum", and "Harborside". I hope that you did get a clone that is some form of GSC. Buy 2, grow one out, and you'll know. More than likely Harborside is just pulling their usual move of trying to cash in on the hype. They are notorious for selling mislabeled and unverified clones there. If you did get some version, then hopefully you'll start putting up pics. So you can stop spreading the misinformation and start contributing to this thread. Until then, I would recommend you ask questions. Instead of offering "Facts". We'll answer....

You acting like the ABF don't run the bay..."Go ahead and let the grownups work, and go somewhere and play" (Schoolboy Q)

If the shoe fits...I'm calling you a toy. Maybe you know what that means.

 

[Space Case]

I think like you said, its just slow to take off from rooting/transplant. She is also in a single/triple leaf confused reveg stage right now. Trying to give her intense 24-hour light to snap her out of it. Hopefully she will veg faster when she does.

And yea, Harborside is crap. Know some guys that ran Harborside's Headband and Chemdawg cuts and they told me that Chemdawg is the worst strain in the world. I explained to them that Harborside's take on Chemdawg is not representative of the clone-only Chemdawg, but Harborside ruined it to the point that they wouldn't grow a Chem D or '91 Chem clone. Pretty sure Harborside cracked a 10 pack of no-name Chemdawg seeds and picked the first female without flowering it and cloned it to hell and sold it in their shop.

 

[Yes4Prop215]

selling seeds that were created from a "harborside" clone...good marketing!

have fun fightin over our leftovers....
