Starcrash, what was the flowering time on that pheno?
hey ledo ,and that time is much quicker than most give due credit, like immediately it begins...... How them Chilies doing bro? You work up the courage to try them yet, what about the crinkly ones, the reapers? If you grow them, you gotta eat them you know !!
Apologies in advance if you’ve already seen these it was my 2003 super silver haze keeperView Image View Image
You could take her at 12 weeks ... the longer you waited & the more light & nutrients you gave her & the more time you gave her >>>the bigger she would get I let it go to 14 weeks once..That was these pics I just posted
Are the SSH seeds your growing now the same as this?.
LOL I knew I'd seen that SSH before star ... It's under NH of MNS site
Hey Donald How many reapers did you grow ? I've grown quite a few and the heat level varies widely some are just straight Habenero others are like eating magma or something.
Hammerhead, I'd love to check out your hybrids is there somewhere I can find them to check out ?
The pictures from 2003 stock..Maybe earlier but I grew them out in 2003...I have no idea what the female I discovered will do ... super silver haze Was never stable ...always was unstable but I got lucky back then ...there were other phenos ... they were radically different from each other...Some I felt was just bizarre...just didn’t keep them...I probably should’ve it was a long time ago I didn’t really know what I had back then ...I’m hopeful this new plant will do something special ...so far it looks really goodImpressive yield for such a short flowering time. I've had a huge yielding pheno of ssh but it went closer to 20 weeks, just wouldn't stop growing.
lol @ magma ,LOL I knew I'd seen that SSH before star ... It's under NH of MNS site

The Trinidad is an heirloom variety 2nd hottest in the world I believe and the hottest heirloom, I think the moruga is a bit milder then the standard Trinidad ?
I've got a few of them this year, great taste and consistently really dam hot, I've not had much luck with the coralina mine were all mild but a friend of mine had some that were stupid hot.
Just another plant to pheno hunt ....

Most of the USA seed banks carry HHG. No clue what they have in stock.
i hate to keep flogging a dead horse ,
but that quote is about vietnam , its not about thailand ,
and it doesnt say anything about thai sticks being infused with opium or anything like that ,
no offence man ,
but your missing a bunch of dots if we were to try and join them ,
the us vets were mostly in udonthani,
which is close to the laos border in the far north east,
they would have smoked thai there ,
thats how the thais knew westerners were keen on their produce,
i spent some time in the museums when i was there last time and read the history on the american soldiers ,, 10 000 were stationed there , they helped the economy a lot by injecting at least 50% of their pay into it ,
and i bet some of that went on both weed and girls .... there was an airbase there also ..
as far as i know they didnt grow opium in udon , that was another part of the country ,
hence the difficulty in combining the substances together for commercial sale ...
they may have in vietnam ,, but they didnt have thai sticks there as far as i know,
your article says marijuana cigarettes , not thai sticks ,,
i best make that my last reply cause i dont need to prove anything that i already know ..

In some parts of North America, for instance, the following combinations are found: 'Candy sticks: cannabis herb cigarettes laced with cocaine;'Buddha': cannabis herb spiked with opium; 'Ace' or ' Zoom' : cannabis herb mixed with PCP, etc.; use of cannabis in food items (e.g. in NorthAfrica'); 'Marijuana brownies' (e.g. in North America); as well as frequent use of both cannabis and alcohol (often reported from Europe and Aus-tralia).https://www.unodc.org/pdf/research/wdr07/WDR_2007_1.4_cannabis.pdf
Drugs and the Vietnam War
Drug use was rampant among GIs in the Vietnam War. Marijuana was a common recreational drug. Good quality stuff included "Thai sticks" and opium-laced hashish. Many American servicemen became addicted to heroin while in Vietnam. It was not unusual for battalion to have a single combat death but 18 from overdoes.
On one way China was helping North Vietnam during the Vietnam War, Chinese Premier Chou En-lai told the president of Egypt in 1965: "Some [American troops] are trying opium, and we are helping them. We are planting the best kinds of opium especially for American soldiers in Vietnam...Do you remember when the West imposed opium on us? They fought war with opium. We are going to fight them with their own weapons."
The recreation habits of American GIs had a profound influence on the cultures not only of Vietnam, but also Thailand and Laos. In many ways the association of these countries with sex, prostitution, drugs and decadence can be tied to the American influence during the Vietnam War.
Michael Herr wrote in "Dispatches", "Going out at night the medics gave you pills, Dexedrine breath like dead snakes kept too long in a jar. [...] I knew one 4th division Lurp who took his pills by the fistful, downs from the left pocket of his tiger suit and ups from the right, one to cut the trail for him and the other to send him down it. He told me that they cooled things out just right for him, that he could see that old jungle at night like he was looking at it through a starlight scope. "They sure give you the range," he said."

"Thai sticks" are small bamboo shoots filled with marijuana and laced with opium. The agreed price for these Thai sticks was $21 per stick. The persons who were to deliver the marijuana and the Thai sticks were different people. Hills returned to his farmhouse; shortly after 7:30 p.m., he left and went to the Riverview Bar where he was to meet the agents. Hills stated that the "Thai sticks" had been delivered and the person who delivered them was waiting alone at the farmhouse. En route to the farmhouse Hills stated that this person did not want to meet anyone. Upon arriving at the farmhouse, Hills, the informant and two agents entered. They passed through a limited area in the kitchen. Hills directed the three men into a den. He told the agents not to go into the living room; however, as they entered the house both agents observed the defendant-appellant, Thomas Monahan, seated in the living room. Following a discussion Hills left the den, went through the kitchen and into the living room. Following Hills into the kitchen, one agent observed Hills remove a bag from underneath a couch in the living room directly to the left of where Monahan was seated. In the den the sticks were counted, and after it was ascertained that there were 200, the bag with the sticks in it was returned to the hiding place in the living room. One agent left to get $4,200 from another agent waiting in the car while Hills brought the sticks back into the den. When the agent returned, both Hills and Monahan were arrested.
It was later discovered that the sticks were not laced with opium, but contained only marijuana and hashish.
