Weren't those PF's nuggets brought in off a different mother? Idk. Either way I remember a slew of folks here drooling over the anticipation for that event to obtain it. Where did they all go? Maybe they are all snowed in from the mass amounts of frost?


I donated those flowers. Yes my cut came from the nicest person I have never met. I miss his presence from here very much...
 
no doubt, but that's the way it goes sometimes. That's why its just a tester plant for me. I have another one ready to go in, my heart tells me to give it a shot, my head tells me to bin everything. I'm most likely just going to move on.

If the cup cuts were all problematic...

How in the world did they come from the mother plant that produced the winning entry @ the LA Cup???

Seems to me if those cuts were duds - then the flowers from that mother would have also been dud flowers...

Yeah, something about that just doesn't add up at all...for those who still think about it.

I saw sl's buds at the cup, they deffinatly weren't duds.he must have sold a couple pounds that day and they all looked good.

ive recovered multiple dud plants including dubb(from progressive options) SW og, escd...i've always been able to get em to come back to normal after a couple months...good environment, light feeding, sometimes you just have to clone out of it a couple/few generations once you get one duddish plant to root vigorously it's usually good from there.

imho using pesticides like avid and floramite doesn't do anything to genetically change a cut...although i agree 1000% that using them without eliminating the problem can breed super bugs....

Progressive Options are the biggest single spreaders of BMs and other pests, including "Forbid resistant" BMs.
Not saying that's the problem here, just sayin'.....
Even walking into that place can make you a vector.

i'm far from a cloning expert, but i imagine something could have happened to the cuts themselves between the cutting and the giving that could effect them.

maybe they were from a different plant, i have no idea, but i don't think its a straight line to that conclusion.

If its cured from throwing out in the sun then i dont understand why people are tossing them out..:thinking:

People just want the hottest thing in their garden so they can say they have it instead of taking the time to nurture her back to health. Thank god for the pre cup cuts.
All of this just makes me appreciate the big homie that hooked it up a million times more. Hit me up brotha!!

Since the new thread has been started trying to identify the problem and since their are pretty much only two options at this point

1.) Throw her outdoors and wait until she heals herself
2.) Throw her the fuck away.

Its starting to get old coming here to check on a strain and its the same thing over and over and over.... and over. The only people having this problem are those that got it from sunset it isnt a problem associated with the strain. Go plug up sunsets thread or the dud identification thread with this bullshit.

It took me a solid 6+ months to get my GG out of its dud state, and I got the cut long long long before the cup, but from SL. The plant was 80% duded but after a few clone generations looks like a completely different plant in veg

Aspirin for "duds". Anyone try it? Don't have GG, but it has worked for me on many other strains after BM toxins made my plants duds. Salicylic acid is a powerful immune system booster for plants, and it stimulates the "SAR response". Once the toxins are out of the plants, they recover. BM toxins can linger for a long time in plants, even after BMs are eradicated, if you are fortunate enough to eradicate them completely. That's why it took 6 months, IMO. Once the toxins are gone, plant recovers. That's IF mites were the original cause. I know many people believe it's a virus of some sort, but virus claims seem to run into a dead end. I have yet to see one person post a positive test for TMV, or any other virus, for that matter. Not saying it's impossible, but if there were a virus, a lab should be able to detect it. No one has submitted any tissue samples for assay?
In the absence of any other real scientific evidence, I still have to guess toxins from BM/Cyclamen mites are the cause. Until someone sends some of these plants for assay, it's kind of a guessing game. If they were my plants, I would not hesitate for a second to hit them with aspirin. Anyway, I always keep aspirin in my rez. Numerous benefits:
"Salicylic acid (SA) is a phenolic phytohormone and is found in plants with roles in plant growth and development, photosynthesis, transpiration, ion uptake and transport. SA also induces specific changes in leaf anatomy and chloroplast structure. SA is involved in endogenous signaling, mediating in plant defense against pathogens. It plays a role in the resistance to pathogens by inducing the production of pathogenesis-related proteins. It is involved in the systemic acquired resistance (SAR) in which a pathogenic attack on one part of the plant induces resistance in other parts. The signal can also move to nearby plants by salicylic acid being converted to the volatile ester, methyl salicylate."
