Yeah , Tom Hill always told me to grab some sts if I ever decided to play that game. But I refuse to play with poisons like that whereas the c.s. is not only safe, but many use it as a health benefit. It really is just something I've never done, and I like to do things I haven't done before. It just adds interest to the hobby.

So you managed to clone your quad branch? Do you still plan to use it as a root stock for a multi,-dna supply plant? Air layering is a an interesting technique, I've seen it used for trees, esp in the creation of bonsai trees, but I haven't seen it in our game. It's something to consider for sure, thanks. Grafting is another thing that's interesting, but I'm not good at trimming root systems. I've always killed anything I've tried that on. And keeping a mother root stock, nevermind the grafting of new branches onto it, is above my skill set.
I ended up gifting the clone to my mom bc I wasn't happy with the roots at the time I pulled it; defoliated it some to make sure it lived so it is down to three branches from 5. Doing great though now. I'm still saving a clone of that plant to work with for grafting and what not. Going to also use any males I don't want as grafting stock practice and maybe try to overgraft onto my flowered plants stumps after they've been chopped just to see what happens. Willing to experiment and fail with stuff like that, and the benefits could be huge if I pull any off.

If you don't mind a vicious sativa a buddy had a very nice orange from Malawi plants from Ace. Don't know what he had to run to get it.
I do know I didn't find one orange plant in a 10 pack of the new nirvana orange bud, nor Dutch passions either last year. Outside of Tangie it seems to have fell out of favour.

I also forgot to mention riot cubes if you're charging your clone method. I find them to hold that magical moisture level better than rock wool & jiffy pellets.
I can get 12 into a small take away tub in the heated prop so they sit in a nice warm bath while rooting.

Yeah the orange bud isn't an orange tasting line, it's just called orange bud because of the orange pistils. The Cali O is the orange tasting line.
The agent orange seems to be the tasty one that went around a few years back, with all the virus infections going around on the scene right now though, I'd be reluctant to take anything new in at the moment. Appreciate the offer though mate, thanks.
For now I'm just going to chase the lemon, and give it a decent kick. Once I've got that down, I'll go on the orange chase properly, and hopefully by then, the scene will be on top of the virus issue.
I just received my gorilla glue seeds from real gorilla, and I'm waiting on my lemon and lime Jones, and my sssdh from ojd. I'll find the best from them and hit them with either a straight blackG#, or the black n glue G#, or possibly even the blackG# x ecsdxsssdh and do a bit of a folding of hard and lemon genes. Depending on where I find the best male. From there I have some work to do, before I start my c.s. playtime that I've scheduled for the end of this year. I really need this extra tent from mars though.
Until then I'm just getting a supply to carry me through playtime. Which is what this run is all about. Well that's the plan anyway. These things always tend to change when reality hits, which is why I don't really like to say what I'm planning. We'll see how things work out.

Speaking of malowi, I've got some malberino seeds from afropips, I doubt they'd sprout now though, they must be 15-20 years old.

I should have said it was Cali o from DP not their skunk orange bud. Afropips, blast from the past man...

Never say never.
I used some seed booster from plagron on some 10 year old NL beans. 4 out of 5 in 24 hours.
They have been in the fridge all that time though.

When you said Subcool my mind went to Jill's lines, the agent as you say and jellybean. She's actually putting both out herself ATM and seems to have worked her lines for specific terps. I was reading up last night. Nice price mind but if you want it you want it...

Oh, what's that seed booster all about, where do you get it? It's not sold at greens, where I tend to order from, and where is Jill selling her gear at?

Jill is selling at attitude and one or two more in the UK. If you type in Mzjill seeds you'll get her page mate, it will tell you her vendors.
I'm a seed where, I spend nights drooling at websites.

They're both hormone boosters so I'd give it a shot if you have some.

I'm lucky, I get to sample and try things from a friend's shop as more than not I won't pay for them. He gets an honest review from someone with exp...

My review of turpinator.. turdinator!!


Agent orange F2 not interesting you?

Nah these are a mid speed strain. The hamlet you can't see to the right, she's done in 50 days, which is why she gets a free ride. She gets taken so I don't start smoking the others early. The one on the left is nearly half way through, she's a 70 day clone. The one in the middle, well it's her first run, but from what I'm seeing, and from her lineage, I'm guessing she'll be 77-80 days to flower. I could start another hamlet flowering now, and pull her out at the same time as the middle girl. Which is annoying as she really stinks already.

I have started a couple of Black n Glue seeds off. I'm really hoping for a nice male. Mars are restocking their tents mid march, so I'm hoping by the time April comes around, it'll be time to go to the casino and roll the dice again.
