I almost bought some of the platinum gorilla. Please post what you think of them when you get around to doing them.

Ordered 2 packs today ( reluctantly an online purchase as my local seedbank won't allow collections due to covid lock down) so I'll hopefully have them in a few days and start popping some beans while the PKB-R and Sour Diesel finish up.

Love doing a new strain and been on the fence with all the GG#4 Crosses out there. But I know the IHG gear will be bang on.

Fingers crossed i get summit good out these also there mixed free 5 pack but dont no what strains they are in the mixed pack View attachment 4789994
In case you wanted to know I asked in house on ig what strains are in the mix pack. They said it’s a mix of everything.

Still not that helpful but it’s a start. I mean I’d assume it’s literally every strain they have currently available and just the left over seeds that didn’t make up a whole pack. But it be nice to know if there’s specific ones that are not included like the platinum kush mints etc. Or is it only the seeds sold at the places these freebies are given out or is it literally everything they sell so there’s also a possibility of getting some of the more limited strains.

I was thinking the same its down to us guess the strains, when buying the seeds and told i was gettimg a mixed pack i thought they would have listed what was in the mixed pack

I would pull the balls and see how things turn out. Did you take any cuttings before flower?
No i don't have the space for taking clone. she grow like a beast and smell very well, its like a forest of pine. I keep plucking the balls, I have a month and a half left before the end. I don't see any new balls since 1 week

This is a nug shot of OGKB V2.1 IX that I just finished as well. Trying to figure out good lighting for nug shots lol. The strain is really pretty though and hits hard. Its really purple but almost black. Has a fruity smell very close but different than the Slurricane I have. I'm looking forward to running this one more.

Normally I plant at least a whole pack when hunting but for this I only planted one bean so it's my only pheno. I got bored one day and wanted some variety so I just planted one seed from 10 different strains just to see and this was one of them lol. I'll probably go back and hunt through the pack soon now though cause it seems worth it.

Nice too known. There are so many breeder's amongst "seed and strain review sections "

You're newer to these parts so it will be nice to see what you post across the threads/breeders.

I think I might really like that. Just a random selection from their entire stock. But they would have to resist the urge to simply use seeds from things that didn't sell well. A true random selection would be sweet.

Yea I agree. I think what it sounds like to me tho is that’s it’s the left over stock from making packs up when they didn’t have enough seeds to make a full pack or the seeds they didn’t think were quit good enough quality to be sold but would still germinate fine it’s likely a mix of both situations imo. Also judging from the quality of seeds I got out of the 15 freebies I got it defo looks like there are some slightly lower quality seeds in the mix. I really don’t think there will be any issues tho as they are not that low quality or anything. but I could see some people getting complainey if they put them in purchased packs.

I am starting my mixed pack the last week of this month, it was going to be my pheno finders sherbet i got when the offer was attitude but i have male flowers showing on my rainbow cake and wedding cake i have off them.
So might just missed them out and move onto the black cherry pie with the mixed pack and few my other freebies

I've had some IHG that looked really pale, small, and underdeveloped but germinated just fine. Hopefully that is the case for yours. You are correct though. people would definitely b^tch about it.

Right then. Im on my last run of the PKB Remix for a bit now and I've got 3 more IHG strains on my list to try.

Anyone had any of these runs yet ?

Platinum Zooks
Platinum Gorilla
Banana Cake

I'm leaning towards the Zooks and Gorilla, but chime in if you have any feedback on them.

Been running strictly PKB and PKB-R for almost 2 years now, its still fire but I wanna do another pheno hunt, got my keeper of the PKBR.
I didnt grow it, and the grower that did I consider OK at best....

Anyway the platinum gorilla SUCKED!
If you want pretty buds, its great. If you want an enhanced GG4....it is not there. The platinum totally bred out the taste, flavor and buzz of GG. It was eh imo.

This grower is mediocre...but the only great bud he ever grew is GG4. Dense delicious nugs. So I concluded it was the platinum genetics.

I dont doubt the beauty of a platinum cross but i have not enjoyed a platinum cut of anything so far. Dont get me wrong,it gets me high, but it is not a cut with any head effects. It appears to be an aesthetics type cut. I am honeslty confused why everyone is so nuts on Platinum. OG has many fine cuts, I have not loved any platinum yet, esp the platinum glue.

Dude why didn't you chime in sooner ! I was seriously leaning to the Banana Cake ( Banana OG x Wedding cake ) and they are 12 packs instead of the platinum gorilla which are 10 packs im a big fan of the PKB ( his OGKB 2.1 which I've ran was brilliant ).

Oh well a pheno hunt will be taking place and ill try and find 3 cuts to run a 2nd time and dwindle them down to 1 on a third run ( 3 x rows of 5 pots in my setup ) I may even just get a pack of the banana cake and run 10 Plat gorilla and 5 banana cake.

I agree that the platinum has a massive effect in terms of taste and flavour, I find it really hashy smelling, overpowering so, but once dried and cured properly its tapers off a lot.

There's a few other strains I wanna try from other breeders but I really can't be arsed with regs ( I got 2 cuts of sour D from Karma im running separately in a Wilma that are good and they were regs, hate regs, just saying). I wanna try and get 2 runs in before summer and shut it down.

Come to think of it, I think I've been running my lights a bit too hard aswell, 4 x 480w lm301b boards with IR, far red and uv diodes in a 150cm x 300cm, I raised them a bit the other day to see if it makes any difference.

Night temps / humodity 17c / 50%

Day temps 26c / 40-45%

Nute strength 900 - 1000ppm ( with cal mag and silica and a triacantanol booster with H&G Shooting powder.

Getting lots of fade already aswell, think I may have started the shooting powder too early. I added half strength in week 3, did a water change today and reduced feed to 550ppm with base nutes and some calmag ( tap water is 150ppm ) and will see how they eat / drink and adjust accordingly

Have you run these before or are they seeds?
