Mephisto Genetics Mephisto Grower of the Year 2019

I don’t see anyone with a non new tester strain really standing much of a chance though, unfortunately. They’re going to be wow and poppy and overshadow the common strains.

Not necessarily. I thought the same thing at first and was like wait a minute no fair, but I really don’t think the fact it’s one of the new unreleased strains will sway voting that badly. Just because other people are growing “common” strains doesn’t mean they won’t have a better looking plant and ultimately earn themselves more votes. The last winner of Mephisto Grower of the year won with a northern cheese haze, and that’s a 2017 artisanal.

No such thing as a common Mephisto :smoking:

I had two choices for a battle plant. Ss x fe or deez nugs.

Ss x fe is going to be a monster! She’s my pick. Day 13.

Thank you. Here she is today. Very very excited to see such a healthy vigorous growing plant, not just for this fun battle but it really is growing at the most powerhouse of a rate of any of my other plants in the tent.



Also, this is my week 2 contribution @bushmasterar15

Just the opposite actually. They aren't "new strains" yet.. They are "testers". And testers are just that. If there is a common issue with a strain, they can decide not to release it. These testers are so mephisto can get an idea of the different pheno expressions in different grow environments. The seeds they sell on their site have already been tested, except for the illuminautos, those are untested releases. The ones running the test strains have a lot more variables to deal with.

Excellent Point(s), Brothers .......

Even with all the variables, I’m thinking the “test” Sam’s Crack will be my choice .....

Had four entrants, 3 Bears, Gold Glue, Strawberry Nugs and Sam’s Crack ..... one of each of my seed stash .....

So being first Grow Battle I may of not thought thru entire process after hearing wife’s comment, “Size Does Matter” ..... so in my mind I’ve already kicked out two of the plants, the 3 Bears and Gold Glue ......

Remaining is Strawberry Nugs and Sam’s Crack and Strawberry Nugs was a late bloomer plus Sam is the best of the bunch so Sam’s Crack will probably be my entry but Nugs still in the race but behind by 9-10 lengths at the quarter pole but ya never know until they hit the wire!
