The un-rooted cuts I recently ordered from Redrum have again started life in their new home. I always find it mind boggling how life can to continue on with just the littlest bit of assistance :). These cuts made it to me on a what can only be described as a fantastic journey. They left their point of origin, were transported in several jets, trucks and a boat, sat in I'm sure less than ideal temp/conditions, crossed an imaginary line, then sat in my refrigerator for two or three days, and despite all of these trials and tribulations, have rooted or are bumped out and on the cusp of throwing roots.

Strains are Dog Walker, Archive seeds Duct tape, Archive Seeds Rude Boi, Gushers and Jbeezies Triangle Mints #3 (aka Wedding cake)... All cuts initially arrived in excellent health, bug and pm free... Not to mention that Redrum is a pretty awesome guy on top of everything else.

All in all, I'd say I would unequivocally recommend both Redrum + Mainely's if you are looking for cuts, even in Canada, which despite being SO close, can seem a million miles away when you're dealing with customs...

Also, I was pretty blown away that one of the 16 cuts sent from Mainely's and put into the cloner on Nov.8th, a Tropicana Cookies cut that didn't root from my last batch of clones has finally rooted. I pulled it out of the cloner, after all of the others had rooted, threw it in a glass of water, then into the fridge for a little less than a week while I tore everything down and sanitized, including the cloner. When the Redrum cuts arrived, I put them all back into the cloner at the same time. Pretty crazy to think that the Tropcookies cut has been through weeks in the cloner, into the fridge, then BACK into the cloner, and has rooted.

My Lemon Royale came out similar looking on the bottom nugs with less spear point on the tops. The smell to me is definitely stronger of a GMO with a slight hint of lemon. I was at a show the other day and it was awesome watching everyone's face when they opened the jar. All went back for second and third smells. One of the bikers was able to taste the lemon a little but for the most part everyone was like why is it called lemon royale, lol

None the less, such a banging strain. So savory to counter with the sweet from most weeds but not overly spicy like some LA Confidential. One of my top 3 favorites from Mamafunk up there with the Wedding Cake and Sundae Driver.

My buddy visited his friend in Florida in early 2000s and came back with the word crip/crippy for kind bud. Not a strain but street slang. Also the term "cables" was used.

Other than that I know nothing.
Kottonmouth Kings called dank bud crip/crippy since the late 90s early 2000s that's how us michiganders learned the term way up here.

My old college roommate used to go back home to Miami during breaks and always brought back an ounce or two of crippy ($480/ounce). I'm not sure it was a strain either, as he said his options were "regs" for schwagg and "crippy" for kb (kind bud) or higher quality flower. However, his connect always gave him the same strain for "crippy" as is was always the same taste and effect. I always wondered if the connect was the grower or knew the grower.

I can still picture the bud. It was tight nickel to quarter sized width of the buds 1-3 inches long that were tight, bright green mixed with bluish/dark green hues, and had a clean "bounce" like laundry detergent smell to the flower. The high was a strong mostly sativa high most similar to a Jack Herer high but not as hazey and with no edge/paranoia to it. The high would last 3 almost 4 hours sometimes from a bowl of it. It was some of the best bud I've ever had and it was always consistent.

Would love to get that strain to grow and hopefully the crippy sold here is the same. If I ever get some reports like this I'll grab some.

Spot on. This is exactly what I remember of the crippy we got, smell and taste and it did seem to always be the same strain. It was great bud. I was in the Ft. Lauderdale area just north of Miami, 96/97. Do you recall what year it was your roommate was getting it?

Yeah, he got it in '97 fall semester to '98 in May basically. So yeah, same time. Wonder if it was the same connect.

I think the bud you and I had were the same strain. Im not great with smell profiles but your description was what I remember and the bud size too. I remember thinking how small an 1/8 looked because I was so used to getting flat ass brick weed lol.
So, I think that may be where some of the confusion starts. We had consistent tasting/looking bud that was called crip/crippy making us believe it was a specific strain, but it sounds like that Miami/Ft Lauderdale crippy(the strain we were smoking) was possibly done in a large grow op? I always figured it was the first hydro I had come across.
I think crippy is a blanket term for kind bud/seedless, too bad that Miami grown crippy we got didnt let their strain be known. I'd like to try to run that for nostalgia's sake.

I might try one day but I'm just a little hesitant still to drop 400 on a clone online. If it was real, it would be worth it. The pics of the plant/clone on strainly right now seem like they might be the one. The seed offering by shoreline sounds like it could be it too. Not sure if it's an outcross though.

I actually looked around for crippy genetics online a few years back circa 2012 and couldn't find anything on crippy. now all of a sudden it's jumping up again. I'm wondering it's bc of all the fame triangle kush is now getting, but crippy is nothing at all like triangle kush. TK is mentioned on the strainly ad. Admittedly, I've never had the real triangle kush clone, but I have grown out 3 of the Bodhi crosses now and have a feel for the og. Not similar at all imo.

Just finished a Wedding Cake from Mamafunk. Gorgeous rock hard nugs. Curing right now. The cut is getting tossed around a lot for cheap now in Cali, no reason for it to be fake. Madscientist seems like a good dude and their operation is legit. Follow them on ig to see what I am talking about.

Loving the sundae driver right now as well. Smell is just grapey goodness. People want more. Going to get a tent going of just her soon. The Lemon Royale is reeking and gorgeous dark nugs covered in trichs. The smell though so nasty and good at the same time. The winner in the yield category was definitely the Strawberry Cough which was about 4.5oz. All of the plants were in 2 gal felt pots in coco. 9 plants per 1kw in 4x4. The Cough just grew crazy all over the place. Had colas coming in angles that made no sense. Not the best bag appeal but the smell hits you right away with its pungentness.
Do ya happen to have any pics of the strawberry cough
 
I've purchased the MAC1 from One Love Elite Clones and it went smooth. Clone was shipped in a clone shipper and arrived healthy. I'm putting it into flower now and will post a picture once complete. I also purchased the TK from sunshine state seed co. Sad to see someone say he's not legit but I already coughed up the money so might as well flower it out. I also purchased the Chem 91 Skunk VA cut from One love but he was having trouble getting it to root so he refunded me and also gave me a free pack of Caps GAS seeds for the trouble. He also said he would send me a free cut of the 91 once it rooted. Solid guy to deal with from my experience.

The cut i got came from madscientistgenetics. It was $60 and sold as the jungle boys cut. I sure hope it's not a s1 or f2 but we'll see when I flower it out.
Definitely bet its real. He uses it in his breeding line. Has some sweet strains and great prices. I am about to pull the trigger on a Mac1 cut, Lava Cake (BSF cut), Sundae Driver(BSF cut) and a Trop Cookies (Oni cut). He has some solid genetics in his library and some fire crosses of his own. That Platinum Wedding Cake and Cheesecake look gorgeous.

I am waiting for PCG to drop that GMO Skunkmaster flex cut and the Slurricane cowboy cut at Harborside, along with their Capstone, Gushers, Kush Mints and Zookies cuts..
