HSO-Mark Posted May 2, 2018 Share Posted May 2, 2018 Hello all. I hope everyone is well So we have been chatting at the office and if the community want this we will be bringing exclusive HSO strains. Not yet release to be tested out on the UK420 platform. A few members have asked if this is possible and yes it is This thread is for some community feedback, input etc We will see what the feedback is like and if good and something wanted by the UK420community we will get this going. This will NOT be like other seeds4diary giveaways as for 1 we will be dealing with regular genetics in various test stages. Some of the strains will include Bubbas fire f2(bubbas gift x white fire og) Platinum yeti f3(platinum cookies x yeti og) Bubba 76 (pre 98 bubba x Afghan 76) Sour 76 (sour diesel x Afghan 76) Lets see what the community feedback is like them we can go from their Kind regards Mark.. 21 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
perkie_uk101 Posted May 2, 2018 Share Posted May 2, 2018 (edited) Sounds like great idea mark. I wouldnt mind being part of the community gang. I do indoor and outdoor grows, so you would have both backgrouds covered on your gentic test. Just give me message if you decide to go ahead. Ild be happy to help Edit. All i need is a basic layer/ format on what you are testing for or how you expect it to be written ect to give me better skills in the presentaion. That would help me lots. I can grow no problem. Last years outdoor antics are posted in outdoor random thread with company i was trying out for first time, after 3 year break. Currently doing my first indoor diary with same company for 2018 and on the outdoor scene again this year. I am interested in learning more.

zen-ken Posted May 2, 2018 Share Posted May 2, 2018 (edited) Great idea....maybe not for an enthusiast like me as unless it was diary driven...Im no master grower and not sure what I could bring to the party....(i would probably cause more problems than help expose them ) But for seasoned growers I would imagine this to be both a challenge and the chance to have genetics early. Being a member of a site with early access to genetics gives me a semi...I know we have this already to some degree but Im a strain whore (variety is the spice of life) and love my ladies in all their beautiful forms....

golf.007 Posted May 2, 2018 Share Posted May 2, 2018 @HSO-Mark, bubbas gift x white fire og sounds a great combo as does the platinum yeti, unfortunately I can't commit for a few months as got some 707truthband and purps#1 to diary but if the offer is still open in a few months I would love the chance.

HSO-Mark Posted May 2, 2018 Author Share Posted May 2, 2018 @golf.007 This is more to gauge community feedback for now brother If we get the interest we will do this and my end goal will be to have the latest "tester" so this will be a rolling thread with new releases being added as and when "testers" are needed Kind regards Mark.. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
leapsure skemor Posted May 2, 2018 Share Posted May 2, 2018 Everyone loves free seeds! How would the test results feedback into the breeding program though? I mean, the variables would be all over the place. Is there much value in the anecdotal? Or is it more a case of building awareness of the strain in advance of release? 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Smokebelch Posted May 2, 2018 Share Posted May 2, 2018 (edited) Hi Mark, you can count me in on this when it is up and running. I have been doing mostly fems of late but I am experienced at growing out regular seeds so yeah this sounds really interesting and also a lot of fun.

Most of the strains would have already been tested and are now growing out in Humboldt. What we will be looking at is Consistency Germination Phenotype variance Growth structure Stretch Whilst also getting the name of these potential new strains out there. My biggest aim is to get some of the best California strains into the hands of our dedicated UK420 members. It will give some a chance to grow a strain that is highly sought after, give feedback to help improve the strain and general input @Smokebelch We would love to have you along my friend! Let me get things set up. More info from Humboldt then we can get this rocking Kind regards Mark.. 7 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HSO-Mark Posted May 2, 2018 Author Share Posted May 2, 2018 @zen-ken We will want all levels of growers my friend so don't discount your potential to this project If we only did this to seasoned growers that would not be a true representation of what these strains can do in the "general/hobby" grower. One of the main things we will be looking for is detail and commitment to the diary. So we can get as much info as possible The strain that peaked my interest was the Platinum yeti Sound like a banger Kind regards Mark.. 7 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
leapsure skemor Posted May 2, 2018 Share Posted May 2, 2018 @HSO-Markthanks. Definitely a hobby grower here. When my current grow is close to finishing, I'll tag you in the diary and if there's anything going, you'll be welcome to dictate what gets germed next etc, Dinafem or HSO, i'd like to broaden my horizons and you definitely put the legwork in on here. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In that case my friend Im all yours in about 6 weeks.....I can give you a hobbyists diary in RDWC.....I need smaller strains due to me 2m height so would leave you to decide what would give you the best feedback. all the best Ken 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cantharellus Posted May 2, 2018 Share Posted May 2, 2018 (edited) I would be interested in the sour76 or the bubba76. I see the feedback you are looking for are you planning on sending 12 packs of these ? Just curious what the target is for number of females for each grower ? Any info on the Afghan76 male and what line it came from ? Edited May 2, 2018 by Cantharellus 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
