I’m a big fan of a lot of the hype strains when they first come out. Some of it is I get used to them and the original clone was a rare pheno type doesn’t stabilize. I find sticking to OG kush is a decent but not perfect cheat sheet on finding good bud on the west coast.
I cannot thank Sherbinski enough for the Bacio!!! my absolute favorite! that´s why I germinated a Jealousy for this run 💚
In the mid 90's we got some bubble gum from New Orleans. The strain was absolutely tasty and we laughed uncontrollably for an hour or so! I miss the way our smoke made us feel back in the day.
Modern hybrids suck. I started smoking before these guys' fathers had their first wet dream. Thank goodness I saved seeds because if I'm going to fill my lungs with smoke I want more than 30 minute effects. I don't need bubble gum or gingerbread, I need weed that gets me stoned for 5-7 hours.
Anyone tried the Official Limited edition Chocolate Runtz? (Chocolope X Original Runtz) It's an official collaboration with Ray Bama, Young LB & James Loud. Only 200 packs; each pack containing 5 feminised seeds. Each pack signed and numbered.
no thanks – i'll take the old school genetics…ya can all keep that desert stuff
I'm so sick of cookies, gellato, and especially runtz! Some of the gellatos are good, but I'm over all of them.
Just for future reference. When you say, “Black in color” is, to people with a command of English, is an illiterate redundancy. Black IS a color. Cops do this to try and sound “official.” But, it’s just simply redundant and not necessary. And since I brought it up the phrase, the fact that, is a particularly debilitating phrase and should be removed from every sentence in which it occurs. There’s no need to ever use the fact that in spoken or written English; the fact that I have a blue car. Just say I have a blue car and so on. Just to let you guys know because I love what you do and I want you not only to be intelligent which you are, but also sound intelligent. This is not a dig, and there is no shade whatsoever intended.
Respectfully,
I had the Diablo OG clone once. Pure fire, so Dank I could pull up to someone's home with my windows up and they could smell it. So good I had to charge 400-450 an ounce. Most folks had to say "I'm good" after the second pull……..
It’s like triangle og there’s 300 bangers plus that it’s a grand Ma of
28:35 MĀORI MENTIONED
Chem is for sure the most iconic for me! Also, Blockhead bred Blockberry, SuperBoof was a pheno of Blockberry that was still fire, but (ironically) not QUITE as good as Blockberry. He plays that cut a LOT closer to the chest.
runtz ruined weed
Yo dudes!!!! Did you all forget the punnet square for blue eyes? Same in genetics. Each seed popped have roughly 1,000-1,500 different possibilities. That's WHY you can't find skunk in skunk#1 anymore. I want that roadkill funk that you smell through the mason jars. I've never had a good gg4 it's a bummer😅
Seems to me in the states, the moment cannabis became corporate it started to become ambiguous. Lineage lost to the flavor of the day. Someone brought up primary colors, what happens when you dump all the primary colors in a bucket? What color do they create? 🤷♂️
Is someone would grow and sell Panama red or acupco gold that was actually very red and gold like it used to be everyone would buy it
Please…please say the word details
17:40 18:00 that's completely normal for s1 seeds of polyhybrids, of cause the variation will be huge and most plants just standard, that's why those companies plant thousands of them to find that one good pheno that will be the Runtz or whatever else. Even with seeds from the best breeders you would at least need something in the two digit range to really find the keepers most of the times.
Great show fellas!!
yea dog, i can taste the difference and smell the difference between candy runts vs white runts. I have two right here. They smoke different too. Candy is more smooth, taste like fruity with signature runtz taste. White runtz is more vanilla floral/woody, but also got that runtz taste. Point is, i can tell the difference. both desert, but both different.
I have the original green crack clone out of west coast and was in clone only form. My friend Paul originally paid 5,000 for the clone in the early 2000’s and kept it going for all years and gifted me a copy 5 years ago when he finally decided to retire from growing. The original green crack clone is Indica dominant. These new ones I see coming out of seed banks in seed form are sativa dominant and no where near like the original clone.
Has anyone ever had a girl scout cookies that actually had a flavor ive never had one that tasted good
Shout out ODB… ohhhhh baby i like it RAWWWW
Old school for me is Skunk(the late 90’s skunk that actually smelled exactly like a skunk not this new fruity stuff they call skunk), Northern Lights, OG Kush, Bruce Banner, Girl Scout Cookies, Wedding Cake/Ice Cream Cake, AK47, Alien OG.
th gg4 was lawsuited by merchadise mishap. people were buying gorilla glue shirts at a shop in ohio, the actuall gorilla glue brand found out about the shirts/logo and than linked it to the strain wich led to a sieze and desist from there name- it was changed to gg4 at that time. there a doc on here about it
Let's go.
Jay's
Girl Scout Cookies is Florida OG X Cherry Pie (Durban F1) [Durban Poison X Grandaddy Purple])………….its NOT the flavor Stupid do you even smoke Fraud boy it is EFFECT obviously it is much more Fire than anything else. yeah I have the experience they are ALL Fire I Have never grown a bad Gelato and Ive grown a TON
Permanent Marker and Sherb Cream Pie and basically MOST of the Fire strains today are all related they are Cookies remixes DUH guys…..
Runtz is Runtz Family Premium Cultivars has a section for it you can order individual strains or box set packs its ILL ILGM has the REAL ONE TOO TRUST
Chris: Order Runtz seeds from ILGM or Premium Cultivars they have the real seeds I grew Boof once off a main brand Runtz NEVER AGAIN ILGM "Runtz" is Purple Runtz and its Real it was the head stash for years of a former main plug for a large city access to tried everything ILGM Runtz Straight FIRE TRUST 100 Do Any Gelato I Know you liked the Jealousy Do ANY Gelato maybe try one of Mike Tyson's New Gelatos or Gelato crosses he has Great Taste I Copped his drop might pop some this year
Gorilla Glue the name stuck on the blackmarket and the bud was FIRE it was basically better than anything else I Picked for my entire areas black market Glue was in high demand because people knew it was going to be very tough or strong like the glue (perceived customer value created by the name and the product literally) and Then, it delivered. Some batches were too sedative but no one cared because the high was so fucking good. Sativa dom batches were HOARDED.
Biscotti is a much more sedative version of Gelato that features Bliss instead of simple Strong Euphoria it is also just more BLAM but that isnt always good it will Make you Nod out like you are on Fet…..its FIRE ASF tho
Gelato is basically 90% Thin Mints with the effects of the Burmese Kush that went into the Sherb thats the Remix Burmese Kush was/is FIRE BuKu
Ive been growing a lot of different types of Gelato for years RN I am running generation self 2 of Gello among others….They are all FIRE….Biscotti is FIRE ASF Ive been Growing Biscotti Mintz for a few years everyone loves it it is basically the best strain overall. that said, like a Reg Gelato that isnt couchlock is perfect anytime smoke, kind of like Sherb, or a non couchlock Cookies….These are All my favs they are the best basically Original Overgrow was breeding Sour a long time ago I Smoke Cookies variants basically ONLY now yeah I bust down some Green Crack or Purple Haze or OGs but Cookies and after is the Best….I Smoke a lot of Purple Runtz too (my main crop last year Gelato 33 X Z its Fire ASF lots of people say most Fire bud/strain they ever tried coming from me I do grow Fire I am an addict what do you expect at least I am Not drinking and smoking rocks NOMO Yalll Digs)
