Before you make claims of this sort - please provide VALID current - up-to-date TRUE information PROVING such OUTRAGEOUS CLAIMS!
Never heard of duds. If anything you sound like a dud.
some times not everything is perfect buddy.
I grew some vintage 2006 - seed plant with the worst vigor - bud development - and frost - good smell. Now with what you are saying - I have a dud. It was weak all around. Now was that because of me or the plant?
Id say me. cause I grew out 2 clones off that bitch and fuck me i wish i kept one of those clones cause that shit was BOMB! totally different plant - 2x stretch - FAT buds - great smell - deep colors... But if I thought like you and tossed it probably in flower... i would of never had that great experience I did later on and savor/miss.
Stoneyk - Shit looks dank! Don't sweat the 1 un-happy plant... can't kiss everyones ass!
just because you haven't heard of it means what exactly? The game is evolving and changing... most of you will not survive the thinning out process...
a Dud is not a weak plant... you have no idea WTF your talking about... many people with exp have come forward and already thrown in their 2cents...
Don't trip homie... DUD is coming to all of you soon... you can only overcome it by trashing all your genetics and starting over ..
good luck... once your shit is tainted... its an uphill battle the whole way....
Do some more research instead of acting like cheerleaders for cuts and you might have a leg to stand on...until then... I welcome the thinning out of all the whack ass growers ... its about time mother nature started using natural selection in the growing game...
BTW... DUD can be just one small branch on a whole plant.... but once you've seen it... unless your genetics are immune to it.... its just a ticking time bomb until all your shit goes into HEMP mode
We'll that's enough for me.... I respect greyskull I already tossed my two teens I was trying to hold onto a cut to throw outdoors to possibly increase vigor now that's getting trashed....what causes duds I don't know I think its BM toxins but whatever it is its scary your mothers catching that shit. Whatever it is it causes those weak branches and small fans isn't grower error I'm man enough to admit if I somehow screwed up a cut also its ignorant to claim grower error and say duds don't exist just because YOU haven't seen it you're just lucky IMO but if I'm sitting with a gifted healthy cut and see page after page of healthy glue plants I'd probably be skeptical as well....but to think 20+ Cali IC members all reporting the same symptoms from the same source is grower error is a bit dense.
After reading all 18 pages im guessing i have duds as well. I havent attempted to bloom out my la cuts due to my spot came down and had to be rebuilt because of inspections..I originally purchased 18 cuts for immediate planting from the cup. Half died driving them 40 minutes home lol. They wilted from not having roots..went back sunday to address the issue to no avail. Picked up sunsets diablo og while i was there. The 9 gg's that were rooted i put into 4 inch rockwool cubes where they started vegging for approx. 2 weeks before i gifted them to a friend for safe keeping while my situation worked itself out. There wasnt any fantastic vegging like ive read just seemed standard at best....fast forward to now....my buddy reports its a finicky plant. Strangly sad when others are thriving but bounces back when tended to...vegging huge regardless. Vigourous and these are indoor and some moms in greenhouse enviro. I took cuts from both indoor and greenhouse glues. All cuts rooting extremely slow. Here we are in week 5 and less than half are rooted. Fucking nuts one rooting per day! Never seen anything like it. Using same technique i cut sour d, gdp, a couple ogs and sunsets diablo og and they all rooted around 7-10 days. Since 10 of 40 gg rooted they went into rockwool 4's and are vegging decent right along with everything without showing stress? What do you think? How fucked am i? Lol
Small leaves and tight nodes = bad news. My new glue cuts are insanely hearty and fast veggers. Also the plants themselves stink in veg!
