HELP....triangle kush? INFO?

those are all nice photos dank frank, they all look like the triangle actually, lol, it had different looks in different rooms, when i did it in a cooler room it looked like the colors of the gsc you just posted, but in warmer rooms such as in the summer time it took on a bit more of a greener look. there surely is a good chance of the white coming from the triangle in seed from, just because I could not get a solid match from the seeds i found in it doesnt mean it wasnt possible. it just wasnt very consitant, like a mutt if you will, many lines mixed in I guess that led to alot of variations. I was also very picky as to what I kept as being a connoisieur myself. again , im trying to gain anything out of all this, I just happend to be missing seing the triangle so i googled the name and found these forums and people speaking about things they have heard and what not along with stories that sounded funny considering I had a big part of this history. the guys i was involved with back in the day where always looking for the big yielders for sure, and the original EMERALD TRIANGLE they had was a pretty decent producer. I dont remeber why they got rid of it or where it ended up going to. ive spent the last 5 years of my life paying for it all , but i would do it all again im sure. one day things will change and ill be reunited with my girls Im sure. she is still around like i said. I have never followed any of these types on online post as Ive alwasy been too paranoid for obvious reasons. and now more than ever people are waking up to just how much the gov keeps an eye on everything online and thru devices. I dont know how timelines match up for everything I have expalined to what others think they know. but im 100% sure of what ive said and the dates involved. maybe one day when things in this country are more relaxed ill somehow get involved in breeding, and getting more involved in the scene without remaining in the shadows as i always had to.

Does this look like your strain tritip?

picture.php
 
very simlar but the hairs appear more dark red in that photo, hard to tell with photos though, as lighting and cameras vary. and like i said it had different looks coming from different people and how they manicured and cured it. those photos you posted before looked real close, and the photos i posted a couple post back too. they looked exactly like it
 
I had a great collection of photos i kept, but they where all destroyed by the man, along with the rest of my stuff, in spite, they can be real fuckers when they want to be.

Well those nugs are "the white". So it seems that what you are talking about is in fact the triangle, not triangle kush. So far most of the plants you have indentified to look like the triangle has been the white. And your boy who GSC is like the Triangle or triangle kush is out of his mind. However cookies does grow a bit like OG kush. But definitely not like triangle kush, or "the white/triangle"

triangle-11-1024x818.jpg

thes photos that popped up on google search are exactly what it looked like when it was done, the triangle. the photos of the triangle kush and the triangle look mostly the same. and as far as the photo you posted of gsc , i said the colors looked simlar, but the stems are thicker on that photos than the triangle would usually get. my buddy in cali only said it resembled the taste and was the closest hed seen to compare to it. all I know is im telling it like it is, Ive been directly involved with the name of the triangle whether its now known as the Tk or what ever its know known as. for a while in the voluisia county area people where calling it the Pitbull, but that didnt stick for long. people can add extra names to it all they want, but what is the chances of somone randomly starting a strain that looks identical and nameing it triangle kush. Im telling you its the same thing. apparently someone from fl brought it out west as the photos on google show. i was only trying to clear up where it originated from, and when

That's what I'm saying man, GSC tastes waaaay different than the white and triangle kush. Only grows similar.
 
well I was only saying what a friend was comparing out west, apples to oranges, I have yet to enjoy or see the GSC in person yet. google florida triangle photos and see what pops up, the photos of -TRIANGLE and TRIANGLE KUSH are identical. so explain whats the differences if not , I know photos cant explain or compare for smell ect. but why is it so hard to believe someone just added the word kush to it with time. like that never happend before

Because your story is matching up with a strain already known to the community as triangle/the white. A lot of us have experience with both the white/triangle, and triangle kush, any they are different plants. Why can't you accept that maybe kush wasn't added tithe end f your strain? Maybe that's a different strain and your strain had the name changed to the white? Cause people had triangle kush before you claim to have created it. However, the triangle/the white popped up during your timeline...
 
I just read the forum at Kind reviews from Krome about the - White, which he basically referes to as - triangle or triangle kush , both. he even claims he didnt want to go into details about its origin as it starts heated debates. so people who doubt my story need to research a little more before you go and try and debunk anything im saying. triangle and triangle kush are the same strain. the word kush was added on with time. simple as that
 
unless you can honestly claim you have been growing the Trangle kush for over 15 years yourself. then your timeline may be off. the internet is full of know it all types, but im not trying to be one of them. show me photo comparisons of the two triangles growing if you claim there are two different ones ( the triangle vs the triangle kush )

Dank.frank just did exactly that. He posted pics from a well respected member here. One is triangle aka the white, the other is triangle kush. I posted pics of the white dried and cured. I don't have any TK pics in my albums right now. They are different strains, and everyone who has grown them or smoked them knows it.
 
if so it seems to me the white was from a seed found in the triangle, and the triangle kush is the one i started years ago. the photos Dank posted all looked like the same strain exept for the GSC photo . anyway I dont need to argue with someone who seems to think he reight about everything, Im just telling my story as to how the triangle aka tk was started in florida. the chances of a strain that looks the same with the same name coming from florida years before i said it came around are slim to none. unless someone found some of the original seeds from the EMERALD TRIANGLE seeded batch a couple years earlier and happend to get lucky enough to have found the similar pheno, and knew enough to call it triangle. all very highly unlikley, as the seeded batch of EMERALD wasnt even called by its name when it was sold in the first place, so yeah like i said I dont need to be arguing about such things especially with someone who calls himself ticklebyballs on a forum full of guys

but what is the chances of somone randomly starting a strain that looks identical and nameing it triangle kush. Im telling you its the same thing.

the photos of -TRIANGLE and TRIANGLE KUSH are identical. so explain whats the differences if not , I know photos cant explain or compare for smell ect. but why is it so hard to believe someone just added the word kush to it with time. like that never happend before

And this is where I have to disagree...they are NOT the same. The TK was out in Cali before you say you made or named Triangle...

The White, a KNOWN direct descendent of Triangle...is not like the TK in growth, smell or smoke. The White grows MUCH more indica - doesn't have that lankiness that TK/OG's have at all. The nugs are fully different at the end of the day.

The time frames don't add up for it to be possible for it to be the SAME plant...just isn't.

Keep in mind every photo you pull off Google could be mislabeled, as they are just photos from some other guy on the internet that is going off whatever information the person before them passed along ... which more than likely, came from the very folks that have been here on this site at one time or another in the first place.

Triangle and TK are NOT the same plant. Nor is the White the same as TK. TK is OG. White is hash plant / indica of some kind.

What is curious to me - is that NO ONE I know of in the Cali scene knows of or talks about or has heard of a plant called "Emerald Triangle" - which means that it is probably just some re-named cut - like always happens, and you really have no clue what it was you were working with. MY BET, is your boys got a nice plant from the NorCal / Emerald Triangle, and for that reason alone, called it that - to add hype to their Cali cut - NOT because that was the actual name of the cut...like you just got done saying - it happens.

AGAIN - and this is the LAST time I'll say this - IF YOU WANT TO LEARN WHAT HAS BEEN DONE / BECAME OF TRIANGLE - you need to be researching posts made by Krome about The White - plain and simple - that is the information you are looking for.

I've got no reason to point you in the wrong direction. And for not really knowing the online communities - I'm giving YOU the history you have missed over the years by not being apart of the community at large. :tiphat:

GSC - is not even 100% certain to have come from TK - or that for certain the Flo-Ryder OG ie Florida OG is the TK - all though, it has been assumed such by many simply because we know that TK came from Florida and is an OG...if not the original.

How likely is it that people name things the same?!?!

I had the bright idea to call Ghost OG x White S1 = Casper. Another breeder not knowing what I was planning, did a Ghost OG x Face Off Bx1 cross...guess what he called it, Casper OG. We live in completely different parts of the world.

I was working on a Gorilla Glue x (SSH x ChemDog) cross, wanted to call it Super Glue - and I'll be damned if someone in Amsterdam hadn't already named some NL cross, Super Glue - again, completely different parts of the world...

How often do people name something the same - ALL THE TIME!!!

Based on the time line you have provided - it is TECHNICALLY more likely, that YOU named your plant after Triangle Kush - NOT, the other way around.

And given I've never heard a single person but you mention this "Emerald Triangle" clone - it is more than likely a plant that was simply called that because of where it came from by your boys - NOT what it was called by those who gave it to them.

You've got to do a bit more research - you came here looking to fill in the gaps - we are trying to help you do that as correctly as we know how.

The White came from a seed that Krome found in a bag of pot given to him labeled as Triangle....IE YOUR PLANT...

TK was held down on lock before Krome ever brought his seed plant, The White, to the online communities.

The White and TK I showed you look COMPLETELY different - I wish I had full plant shots to show you - they grow completely different - flowers are different, smell different, smoke different, dry different, etc...

NOT the same plant by any means.

Not saying you didn't make Triangle - I'm saying you didn't make TK, and they are NOT the same plant.

Now...I won't exclude the possibility that what your buddies brought back from Cali was TK - and that they called it Emerald Triangle - and that you bred with it by accident, and from there named a plant triangle...that hermied on itself, produced some seed, that Krome found one of, and viola, was born the White - a watered down version of TK...

THAT might be possible, in a long shot - but not the other way around...



dank.Frank
 
you might be right Frank about the - emerald triangle cutting, back then I was mearly a worker for these guys who brought it back, thats what they called it, I no longer talk with anyone from that era, as they all got into big trouble and moved onto other things in life, I only remeber what it was called when it was brought back here. could have been anything really, but it was from nor cal for sure. the only reason i used the triangle name on the seed I popped was that was the only thing i had to go by back then. like i said most of us where not very concerend with lineage back then ,the early 90's I was just happy to be part of it all , and i also helped get rid of all the work they did too. i was just reading what Krome had to say about the white, and he said it came from a bag seed from the triangle in florida where he was from. he also refered to it as triangle kush too. maybe what the guys brought back from cali back then was actually the true TK. cant say for sure. the one ( emerald ) they had back then grew with thicker stems and larger buds but with less punch and expansion in the lungs. the seed i started was a bad yielder just as krome desribes his White. you have to manipulate it and veg it longer to get any weight from it. I didnt come on here to start any conflict with anyone, just trying to fill in some blanks, for anyone who wanted to add to what they think is the truth or not, either way. there are things I cant be certain of, the original lineage of the Emerald triangle clone that was brought back here around 91 ish. the guys called it that, and thats all we knew. when I had gotten a hold of those seeds, I held on to them for years before I started them. there was not many people here in fl at all that knew anything about the name Triangle then refering to a strain . and everything else is exactly how i desribed it in ealier post, if i was making this all up, i would have come up with more details maybe of origins ect. I just told everything I knew and had to do with it, the fl triangle. which some refer to as both triangle and triangle kush
 
Ive actually also always been into the strain histories and originas myself. if anything, hearing about a TK that may have been around in cali pre 90' would help shed some light on some gaps in history Ive always wondered about while growing the triangle I started in fl. I never truely knew the exact lineage, would be great to be able have a dna test done, I hope they come up with t such technology soon, would put alot of debates to rest

That technology exists - ie DNA testing. The cannabis genome was mapped in fall of 2011 - I posted a link to the site in another thread just the other day - don't feel like hunting it down at the moment...

I can say with 10,000% certainty - the TK is not the same plant as Triangle, neither is the same as The White. That much I know. Where they all came from ultimately, is just compiled years of conjecture. What can be said for certain, is that The White, came from a seed found in a bag of FL pot label Triangle - that was circulated around a bunch of surfers. And when the White came on the scene is very consistent timing to when you say you made Triangle. TK, though, was before all this.

I don't think anyone is fighting with you - nor do I think you came here to cause problems. I appreciate the time you've taken to share your story and it does lend a bit of background to the ever increasing mystery that is some of the greatest cannabis of the face of the planet. If it wasn't so good...people wouldn't care so much. :tiphat:
