Its 975 . 25% off Pre-Orders.
How you doing I wanted to ask a few questions concerning the LEDs you are using. number one do you veg and flower with them? number two how does the quality stack up against MH lights and HPS lights? and number three how manageable is the heat the temperature from those lights as far as using LED? I'm very new to that and I'm looking to make a change because of heat problems and such and such so if you could please get back with me thank you

Hey GU what's the difference between purple chem 4 and purple chem? I just ordered the purple cam with the women's History Day coupon yesterday but now the site says the purple chem is out of stock so I hope that means my order actually went through and then it ran out but I don't know. And are the ones you just listed the only new strains you're bringing back to the menu or are there any more plus are there going to be any regular seeds cuz all those were feminized?

Do you find pheno variance to any degree in GPS feminized seeds? Just wondering if my Purple Cake would display variety from seed to seed. I usually grow regular seeds-thank you!
Yes. A good example, if you have the time, is too look at my Cake n Chem pics. 14 Females. Some look very chemish showing the Stardawg genetics, some look more Wedding Cake, and some are a hybrid of both. Pretty even blend with that run. I've done smaller one pack hunts for which I thought the female was a bit more dominant, but one pack is such a small sample size. I've been very happy with every pack I've run, and all gave me some varieties without thinking, "hey, why does look completely different than either of the two parents."

Oh shit, man. @santacruztodd I'm sorry. I was referring to reg seeds. I misread your statement. My bad. Disregard my post as I haven't grown feminized, and I'm not very familiar with feminized in general.

Hi Todd,
A feminized F1 hybrid made using a genetically different reversed female for pollen is the same as a regular F1 hybrid WRT pheno expressions.
You typically see ~25% offspring that favor one of the 2 parents and about 50% that show some combination of dominant traits from both.

Any recessive genes in the DNA of the parents will be masked by dominant genes at the same loci unless they have the recessive gene in both strands (when a seed is made, it combines a copy of the DNA from each parent to make the DNA in the seed.)

Here is a simplified example:
If you have a hybrid made with 2 plants that are true breeding for their different leaf traits, a wide leaf parent (WW) and a narrow leaf parent (nn), where wide leaves are dominant (W) and narrow leaves are recessive (n), all offspring with be (Wn) for the leaf width trait.
Because the Wide leaf trait is dominant, it will mask the narrow leaf trait even though the offspring all contain the gene for that expression.
So, all the F1's will be wide leaf.

When you make F2's, the genetics (Wn) combine to create the following possible combinations for that trait

Wide leaf expression:
WW
Wn

Narrow Leaf expression:
nn

The WW and nn combinations were impossible in the F1 generation with true breeding parents.
Recessive traits only express themselves when they occupy both sides of the chromosome pair.

I hope this helps.

Purple Chem is Star Dawg x Purple Punch
Purple Chem 4 is Chem 4 x Purple Punch

yes your order is safe if you were able to checkout.

and yes more regular seeds are right around the corner dropping on 4/20 as well.
Don't mean to pry but would you happen to have the name of the new strains due to be released at 420

I understand the process of dominant genes with an F1 and the difference it would make with an F 2 but what would constitute a breeding parent to be an F1 opposed to being an F2 and what exactly is an s-1

A f1 is the first gen of a cross of two different lines , f2 is the second generation of the cross etc.

A parent would be a f1 if it was the first gen of the cross that created the parent.

A S1 is a female polinated with its own pollen.

The F stands for filial. Which is denoting the generation or generations after the parental generation. F2 is two generations from original parentage.

Anyone pop the purple mac's yet? I just soaked one for 12 hours and put her in the root riot like 2 days ago and just waiting to see if she pops up. Planning to run one of those and a Russian Snow from Vision Seeds but may end up running two of the Russian's if this one doesn't pop. Got hope tho! Will try again later either way if she doesn't, just lookin for some sexy pics. didn't see anything on the search..

edit: That Purple Mac popped right up with two leaves ready to go by the time I checked tonight. She beat the Russian Snow that I saw coming up this morning, that one still hasn't broken the surface. Nothing to worry about here it seems ^^

1 of 3 PPMAC have one pretty stunted but growing and the other looks
Like it’s taking the purple side. I think this one has the Mac look.

Purple Punch flowering in a tent.

Oil Slick in a 7 gallon pot of coco and perlite. A few more cuts and she will go in flower.

And this is what its all about. Wedding Dub...cured for a month in a vac seal...smells like fruit punch and works like a freight train.
Dubstep, Purple Punch, GG4, Topanga and Wedding Night are all on the go. Should be some great frosty harvests coming up.
