Off topic, but this was some purple punch at one of the booths. It's trichomes were off the hook and plenty stoney, but the entire jar was all small nugs, so unless you've got the time, money, and patience, don't expect shit for yield. Although, I've got a pheno of some snowball from ethos right now that is off the hook and frosty as fuck too, unfortunately, like that purple punch, it doesn't yield enough to keep around.

Let me just say this though, I almost always run things twice if starting from seed. Seeds run tap roots and usually exhibit cola dominant tendencies, which, if fimmed (like i did to most of them), is awfully hard to tell. I'll be running my #2 snowball pheno from clone soon. It's rooted and vegged right now. This is an exotic genetic thread though so I don't want to keep spamming it.

I tried to take a couple pics of snowball for you, but they turned out like crap cuz I can't hold the phone and flashlight still enough at the same time. I need a real camera and tripod like the seed breeders use. I also should turn off my fans like they do too, but I'm just a regular Joe schmo with a cell phone so it is what it is. They're only going into week 5 right now. Just a little behind the grease monkeys.

I went to the harvest cup in San Bern a couple weeks ago and monopolized Mike's generous time for quite a while. All of us have different goals it seems when trying to choose genetics, but I did spend considerable time picking his brain and asking him quite a bit of questions. I didn't mention who I was, or what I'd spoken with him roughly 18 months earlier at the same location, but apparently he remembered me. What i can say is, that he spent far more time than he needed to, and answered every question i had in the best detail (If I were in his position and had a dozen or more crosses to remember off the top of my head) he possibly could. My questions touched mostly on:
1. Growth structure and whether or not the plant gree like a power pole or christmas tree because i don't veg mother plants and if I could yield enough good, viable clones off it, REAL flower time, TRUE overall yield potential, and overall bag appeal and TERPS. Obviously, his menu has expanded and I could only afford to buy some of what he offers, but after talking with him and giving him my basic criteria of what I was looking for, I ended up leaving with Crunch Berries, Triple Chocolate Chip, Donkey Butter, A1 Yola, and Caesar. I have high hopes for all of them, but so far, my best return on investment has been Black Mamba, and Grease Monkey. He did say, that A1 yola delivers colas, but that crunch berries delivers more overall yield. Details like that, which are left out of nearly every seedbank's descriptions are not only important details, but HUGE time savers. That being said, I've run a pack of kimbos, and was sorely disappointed. The 3 keeper phenos I found out of a pack of bm's though have served me very well. Also, I did see dry flower of both the donkey butter and triple chocolate chip and both were AAA+++! Guicy G, also had a good look and MAD TERPS. I'm just another guy who's been growing for 20 years and have experimented with tons of strains, but I don't have the time, room, or cash to phenohunt 100+ seeds at a time like these huge commercial grows who, for lack of a better term, have bribed their way into doing "legally" what most of us wish we had the capital and resources to do ourselves. For what it's worth, I hope that helps.

did you ask anything about caesar or trilogy by any chance??

a1 yola is a good pick for the colas cuz it'll make harvest and trimming a breeze. i'm shying away from a1 yola because it resembles caesar soo much that i don't want to find myself in a deja vu situation.

I already have a solid Tahoe Alien OG I'm running, but it's hard to yield more than 1.5lb per 4x4 in anything but ideal conditions. He only mentioned that the yola was a cola style plant predominantly. That being said, keep your eyes out for bud rot, imo. Take your chances i guess.

what disappointed you about kimbo?? it was suppose to be one of those 'winners' rivaling c&c. Some ppl on this thread found some VERY nice phenos.
Most of my phenos were males or had hermadodrophic tendencies, and the one that didn't took FOREVER to finish, and had a similar, but rougher, and looser look than blue dream. And WAY less yield. Super hard, annoying trim, too.

@hyroot. Have a pic of the entire plant by chance? What was the yield per 4x4 tray under a 1000 hps? Data like that is the most valuable to most in my opinion. I grow Mandarin Cookies from ethos and the flower looks insane too, but it's a matter of efficiency. I'm not sure I'll be running it much longer unless I get it mastered. One pro tip, regarding Mardarin cookies, do NOT flower it over a foot tall, under ANY circumstances! Stretch, stretch stretch!!!

3 in the pink has Pink cookies aka wedding cake. (cherry pie x cookies) x triple og
and also triple chocolate chip. mint chocolate chip x triple og

i know i said i was going to stay away from his cookie crosses. but after looking his next year's release, which is going to be strains crossed with his male mint chocolate chip stud. i wanted to get a strain that has something related to his MCC just to get a feel or comparison for next year :P

but at the same time.. he's already got a lot of cookie crosses, c&c being the most popular. but after his triple og lineup release, do you feel there's a 'higher end' cookie cross on top of them all? i'm leaning towards his milk and cookies only because it has all the winners cookies and cream (undisclosed cookies x starfighter) x (triple og). as where his other cookie crosses are something along the lines of donkey butter which is (grease monkey x c&c) x (triple og).

i guess you can say DONKEY BUTTER is Grease Monkey (GG#4 x cookies and cream) x OG cross
and MILK AND COOKIES is Cookies and Cream (Starfighter x undisclosed cookies) x OG cross
and 3 in the Pink is Wedding Cake(Cherry Pie x Girl Scout Cookies) x OG cross ***anyone have great things to say about cherry pie? a lot of guys were butt hurt myself included when we missed out on Cherry Cream Pie. I don't know anything about cherry pie crosses/strains but heard great things about it.. does it carry any fruity smell with pungent gasoline smell?

Pink cookies is not wedding cake. I know you looked up leafly and saw the genetics there or somewhere, but that is not them.

Wedding Cake is

TK X ANIMAL MINTS 《Animal cookies x {Gsc X blue power}》

I just finished the 3 in the pink. its a ridiculous plant. I ran it in a 1 gallon pot with amended soil with a few compost teas, without topping it. It grew like a pole with super dense frosty buds of all cookie funk. I didnt take a clone, but I made ample F2s. Definitely recommended.

Just a week or 2 before Flower

IMG_20171009_135633.jpg
Around 30 days from flip

IMG_20171122_160603.jpg
About 75 days

IMG_20171123_195503_452.jpg
Chop day 87.

Its still drying but I am going to say it yielded about 30-35g total.
