Just wanted to give some feedback on my experience with Greenpoint thus far. I ran a whole pack of California Cannon and a few didn't germinate, one was really weak and culled, and the rest ended up male. I decided to give them another chance and got a pack of Cowboy Kush and Copper Chem. I popped 1 seed of CK and 1 Copper Chem with some other plants because of my limited space and both of those ended up being males. I've read through this thread and noticed several accounts of the male percentage being much higher with the Stardawg crosses. I'm glad I got these beans at a considerable discount considering the frustration they have caused me and am very reluctant to pop any more Greenpoint gear. I'm not the one to bash anyone, I just wanted to give an honest review and hope you guys have better luck than me!

That observation has been stated by several people here over the last couple months, "Stardawg throws a lot of males".
Sorry for your bad luck but I hope its just that. Still puttin' my faith in the law of averages, I have no choice. Coming to the flip here in another 10 days or so, then I'll have my own opinion.

I bought into that at first, but I don’t think it’s that simple. Honestly these stardawg crosses can throw some ambiguous looking preflowers, and looking back I’m absolutely positive I threw out some tomahawk and copper females that I misidentified. I got a good ratio with the sky master — 2 females to 5 beans. Got 2/5 with the snake oil too but one pheno wasn’t really worth keeping. I think you have to pretty much just wait for fully formed pistils or balls and only make your decision once there’s no question. I don’t know how many others on here made the same mistakes as me, since I’m not all that experienced.
All my bodegas are starting to show preflowers now and even under magnification some are hard to identify. With the last run I was in a hurry to make room in my veg tent, and most likely fucked myself with my haste. Now that I’ve got my grow schedule organized better I’m not running into these issues and don’t need to take any more chances.
You mention the law of averages, and I’m starting to think that if you pop enough Wild West beans, you’ll get about the same ratio as with bagseed or any other breeder’s regular seeds. I’m trying to keep a pretty good record now that I’m not jumping the gun on sexing.

You've been crying over that f-up for a long time, you gotta quit beating' yourself up.
Wish I had some of those Bodegas

You’re right, and thanks. I’m way too hard on myself for my mistakes. Always have been. I’m stoked for those bodegas. I don’t think I’ve seen a single one posted on here that didn’t look fantastic.

We all f-up, it just sucks when its you! Besides, those plants you pitched were all males, I saw 'em!
Yeah, lots of great picks of those Bodegas on here. I'm sure yours will turn out nice as well

They are a little over 2 months old with a 18 and 6 and Light schedule since birth
I am also curious if I am judging them too early. just getting really bushy in the tent.
Any advice?

I’m not an expert or anything but I believe ( I really don’t have a clue) that gps strains are first crosses of strains, there is no back crossing, cubing or whatever breeders do to get more stable genetics and more similar characteristics in seeds. So I think in these first crosses there isn’t much similarities or stability between the seeds but there’s for sure chance to find gold and you find something the breeder may have chosen to breed out that you may like? But maybe that’s why the seeds look so different idk just my opinion and I really don’t know

I expected some differences...I am hunting for a gmo leaner.. I have never grown a strictly male..I have grown trannies not *on purpose..but the kind you find when you really break it up with those premature nuts.. lots of'em
