Yeah ET has made the first step in making things right with me but it would be nice if they would post that my story is 100% true but atleast you all know now what genetics were used before they took them and did their own work. I agree with Frost stay away from the Fems for now but with the genetics they used in their regs seems like a no brainer since most are from my Chem Sis x NL 1x5 x Sour Lemon larry. I know for a fact these are super strong frosty genetics that yield well. I think my gear will soon be sold through the ETS company. Alot of work is underway on my end as I type this. Gonna be some crosses no one would think of like Reefermans Phenom Phen x old school Afghani #1 . this should be a powerhouse of soaring highs with a heavy indica come down. I love the Phenom Phen but I'm trying to bring down the flower time with the #1

are they going to fix there strain descriptions and add the proper lineages? or keep on bulshittin.. hopefully if your gear is released through them they give us the correct info instead of just bullshitting to make it sound cool.
is ET a group of breeders or one person or what? are they in fact based out of the emerald triangle? i get the idea they want everyone to believe theyre old hippys from humboldt that have preserved all the old norcal genetics that were so dank but in fact its just a few business men from LA or some shit that hired some guy to f2 your gear, make up cool sounding descriptions and sell them online and clean shop. thats just what it seems.
would be cool to get some actual info on the breeders themselves.
Well I'm about a week away from choppy down my emerald jack that has now pushed out a bunch of male flowers... It looks great and buds are hard a rocks...it vegged fine but once I flowered it , it started thrown out nanners everywhere... It would have been culled but I'm only running her and a og kush18... So it's gotta few seeds here n there by looks... But it looks really fire though... Never again will I run there shit genetics...

they sound like some fire
Found it interesting to see how many people had full blown males in their fem grapefruit krush. I had exactly the same experience. Out of 5 or 6 fem seeds, 3 turned out to be males. I sent an email to their website but got not reply. It was around about the same time as other people had them looking at the dates on these posts so maybe it was a batch mixup, who knows.
What I did grow was the remaining grapefruit krushes and a few blueberry headband.
One of the grapefruit krushes smelled and looked similar to one of the phenos of cali connections sour diesel that I was running alongside it at the time. Turned black at the end of flower, had elegant little foxtail buds with a nice coating, and had a slightly fuelly smell. It was a nice plant. Not a keeper though.
Of the blueberry headbands, one was a bit bland. Pretty standard indica fare. While another was really frosty. Probably the frostiest plant of the grow...but... no flavour. Which was a bit shit.
All in all, if I exclude the issue with the fem seeds and judge them only on the females I grew out, I'd say they were pretty good, but no more than that. I reckon you could find some nice plants in amongst what they've got, based on what I saw. But I wouldn't say they were at all stable and consistent in their quality.

I'm going to be growing some of they're FEMs this summer along with some other strains outdoor right now from Emerald Triangle I have started since 5/13, Grapefruit Krush 4/5 germ, Trinity Kush 2/3, Lost Coast OG 3/3, Super Sour OG 3/3, Blueberry Headband 3/3, Bubba 76 3/3, Royal Purple kush 3/3, I also have Dr.greenthumbs Iranian Chem 9/9, Female seeds Easy Sativa 9/10, FMS Purple Maroc 5/5, FMS Maroc 4/4, FMS Lemon Kush 1/1, DNA La Chocolat 1/1, Samsara Seeds Alqamista 1/1, like I stated these are all FEMs and will be grown outdoor in NYS, I'm hoping that since these Emerald Triangle seeds are not being indoors that there will be less of a chance to hermie since they will be outside,but I don't know so I'll keep an eye on them, so far everything is growing nicely,so I will add to this thread my results as time goes on
haven't read the thread, here's my report on sour lemon o.g.
picked a single seed to make freebie quota, grown in a hot, tough little microcab. good news is it survived! grew it twice last winter/spring.
easy to care for, buds are dense, trichs are respectable, not jawdropping.
smoke doesn't have a lot of personality.. no strong taste or anything. doesn't come on too fast, doesn't face you immediately, not a couchlocker.
for a while after harvest i'll reach for other strains first. after a two month cure it is some heady medicine, like after five minutes it tells you systemically you're about to be real high and all you can do is surrender. if you know what i mean. lasts a while too.
remembering that my cab was nowhere a plant wants to be, s.l.o.g. threw out a few male blooms at the bottom of buds at the beginning of flower on the first grow. clone on second run didn't hermie. "trained hermies" like this aren't a problem for a micro, got a few dozen seeds (just what i needed), not a few hundred.

I'd like to know where they are based as well. http://www.emeraldtriangleseeds.co.uk/home.html is their website. .co.uk? Not talking trash. Just wondering.
I grew the mastodon outside and it was awesome!!! The taste was really nice and it yielded really well. Had a trinity kush that was a fem bean, that turned out to be a full blown male!!! Glad I caught it before it did any damage. I was a little upset with the fact that I bought a fem seed and it turned out to be a male, but whatever, life goes on.
