Flamedodger Posted June 9 Share Posted June 9 @badbillybob the local cash cropper has been growing this for years and I’m of the same opinion as you, not particularly strong and smell is non existent, some of the shite grows I’ve done have been better 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Also, I'm sick of chem and og's, i think alot of folk are, however its the holy grail for loads of folk.....back looking for bc in smottie up next.

BC still stand bc as probably my favourite strain . iits still packs a punch but its just a lovely smoke. i too am sick of ogs, maybe not as much the chems, but when i last grew sour d (HSOs Amherst sour d) i had an absolute beauty of a pheno. i swear it smelled of pure gas/ diesel. you could taste it. it would have been great for a cross but the fuel was overpowering, i ended up glad to be done with it, but still wish id taken a cut because it was one of those special plants, a one in a hundred job.. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I cracked a couple different CC strains recently and have had plenty of issues (poor germination, hermies) but damn does the Purple Chem smell amazing. Completely different looking to when i grew her years ago, but still has the same stunning smell. Hoping the taste holds up too. There's definitely some good stuff to be found in their beans if you can overcome the issues. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Revive Posted June 9 Share Posted June 9 This pgr dealer weed is a health hazard imo, plus it kills a lot of the terps and reduces the plants ability to produce thc and resin. Prob why the buds are like stones, lack smell and dont have much trich production. Keep your pennies in you pocket @badbillybob 7 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

KC Posted June 9 Share Posted June 9 Just because buds are rock hard doesn't mean they have pgr in btw, I've grown plenty. I'm not saying it doesn't happen of course. This includes hid lighting too, some strains are just solid. 13 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I’ve got 4 Humboldt mint og seeds the originals and got to be well over 8 years + old tried popping one with the water in glass technique but no joy they have been in the fridge so thought they should be preserved as best as I could. Any tricks ? Thought maybe a light scarification but never done that before. I tried the matchbox method years ago with some seeds which were approximately 2 decades old. I used the paper towel method though, perhaps that was a mistake. In any case I had no success. I still have some of them and like you, would like to germinate them. I think they're some old cheese beans. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Greenfingers95 Posted June 9 Share Posted June 9 @northern_soul its a bummer isn’t it I think I will try what @MindSoup suggested nothing to loose really at this point I guess. They was sat in my seed fridge and seen them so I thought I would try it out but it failed to crack open. i know Humboldt has got the 2.0 version of choc mint but probably nothing like the original version before they got raided. Let us know if you get the cheese going 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Let us know if you get the cheese going You'll all know if they germinate! Can't say too much but this is ganja from my youth, I remember it fondly. It's either cheese or skunk#1. You have a seed fridge? Just for ganja or other things also? I have three small tubs, only 1 is for the good stuff. Sorry almost forgot to ask, do you understand the thing MindSoup recommended? Or know where the link is? Not something I've heard of before. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Let us know if you get the cheese going i believe gibberlic acid works reasonably well on old seeds, sure i saw it somewhere but cant remember the ratio for soaking them with it 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Moonstone420 Posted June 9 Share Posted June 9 . Stawdawg has saturated the market because it ticks so many boxes. You probably just got a badly grown version so don't write it off. Not exactly my fave strain, but i absolutely see why its been so successful and is everywhere. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
