I have noticed the opposite with my bodega bubblegum and Texas butter. There are a few that lean more toward the father, but it's not statistically disproportional.
I am happy with my purchases and look forward to running hibernate, cake n chem, and pure raspberry kush (CV) in my next crop. :weed:

I dont doubt it.. My BB looks good and 1 of my CnC looks to be a keeper.. Ive got many packs Im looking forward to going through.. Im simply reporting what Ive been noticing recently.. Multiple people on multiple threads either offering to swap GPS or saying GPS is at the back of their line and often because they report the male is overpowering or theyre Stardawgd out..

I know my collection is small compared to most and Im already not sure how much more "Stardawg" I really need in my life.. I like GPS and appreciate what Gu has done but a little variety would go a long way..

Since all the available crosses are Stardawg the end results of running a pack of every available strain would undoubtably be skewed toward Stardawg. Say you run 10 packs and half are leaned towards mom the end result would be 50 stardawg and 5x each(10) of the mom leaners.. Thats a lot of Stardawg... I like chem so I'm not complaining with my purchases but if the next drop is more "flavor of the day x Stardawg" I'll probably take a pass

one pure la affie he released at the same time as the PRK I got goin looks good so far after I dang near killed it right off the bat, just sayin. Crazy folks are having trouble with em, I think when he released em, I thought I read where he was giving good genetics at a good price for people breeding, etc. Affie flowering from seed. Along with a Copper Chem female that is goin crazy on the megacrop stuff. I have to recommend the Bounty Hunters again, that onionyrank pheno cures out quickly to a lighter lemon pledge with sweet aftertaste. Really good stone. Plants didn't stretch like some of the others ive done. Not getting much Chem in the taste. Very glad I did the eagle scouts from seedling, else they would have outgrew the tent. Early tester tastes all choc cookie, no chem. Another good stone. Week from being done. Bounty Hunters also didn't go 12 weeks flower, lol, like some of the other strains. Another plus.

One reason people may be looking to trade GPS beans could be that they bought multiple packs of things and found keepers without running them all.
With the great prices and incentives that trigger compulsive spending, it's easy to understand how people wind up with more GPS seeds than they can run in a lifetime.
I know I've bought packs in the past when a deal is too good to refuse even when I already have more than 1 pack of the line just to use the extras as trade fodder.

I agree with the idea though that it might be a good time to be looking for something new to replace the father of the wild west series.
At some point, the current customer base will demand it or go elsewhere for it.

Maybe I've been getting lucky, but I've run 5 packs of GPS seeds so far and have had about 50/50 male to female ratios and HAVE NOT had an abundant amount of Stardawg phenos.

Honestly the phenos have been all over the place except Raindance which has been Deadhead OG leaning with some variation between sweet and nasty, but still Deadhead OG based.

Even Copper Chem had a decent amount of variation (which I wasn't expecting). Two out of 5-6 females was straight Chem smelling (still with some variation), a couple weren't remarkable, but weren't bad and 1 had a lovely fruity aroma similar to the local cut of Dutch Treat we have here and spot on to some Mickey Kush F2's I grew out once.

Purple Badlands was not abundant in chem aromas. Actually only one had about half chem aroma and was a lovely addition to what I assume Flo brought to the other half.

Jamoka had no chem aromas. My keeper Jamoka smells just like Fruit Loops cereal tastes. Catpiss x Stardawg. How does that equal Fruit Loops? Crazy variation.

I did full packs on all of them and 2 full packs on Raindance.

So I don't personally see why anyone is getting their panties bunched up over Stardawg being the only male Gu~ uses because the genetic variation I've seen has been pretty freaking wide.

Also, as @Chunky Stool posted, curing makes a huge difference. I have never grown plants that change so much during the cure. I mean dramatically different aromas with even a pretty short cure. One of the Jamokas I grew I didn't think much of it and turkey bagged it and set it aside. Came back to it a month later and it was really impressive. One of my Purple Badlands was good, had a nice aroma, looked good, potent, etc. Bagged it up, came back a week later and it was like walking into a florist's shop, just straight in your face floral aromas; really lovely stuff.

Maybe some of you guys complaining about Gu~ only using the Stardawg male need to change up your feed game or grow style or plant whole packs or more seeds or ...? I'm not sure, but I don't see the justification for the complaints IME. I've had a lot of good plants from GPS so far and at least one from each pack that I'd be happy to keep for the foreseeable future.

Maybe I'm just luckier than some of you guys too, ha ha, I don't know :mrgreen:

I have Copper, Purple Badlands, and Raindance on hand and was wondering which of one of these three you would grow if you were to do it all again knowing what you know now?

Thanks for your time,

some folks don't have enough surplus to get a good long cure, many times the meds are almost needed as soon as the plants are dry. IME I've had bout the average on females per pack, had great germ rates on some packs, not so good on others, same way of doin it everytime. Maverick, tart berry frontend, chem backend. Nightrider, sour Chem. Bounty Hunters, not much Chem without much of a cure. Early tester Eagle Scout, all cookie, only Chem I can taste I think makes the cookies a choc, slight spice taste. Dandy yielder. Have gifted out many packs, but not heard much back. Prolly grow out what I got and try my luck at chuckin some.

I greatly preferred purple badlands over raindance. Way better structure, smell and taste. Could just be my wife and I's preferences though. I hated the structure of raindance, mine were lanky floppy pain in the ass plants.

Found something interesting out. Found little tiny bugs, microscopic white bugs w long antenna, crawling outa my roots organic original mix! Wtf!! They were running the rim of the pots after filling them. New unopened bags. Well i get a scope out, make few calls, finally get an answer from roots. They tell me its this, that they add it to the compost.

Hypoaspis miles is a small light brown mite that lives in the top ½ in layer of soil. As a natural predator of fungus gnat pupae and of the snail parasite Riccardoella aspersa it is used by gardeners and snail breeders for biological pest control. wiki.

So now i know where the fungus gnat are coming from lol... no more roots for me! They are adding beneficial bugs because its loaded w bugs.. bugs bugs more bugs.. nope!

what mixes do you guys use? bug free..lol thanks all!
