I'd part with a fair chunk to get my hands on the mephisto mother plants. Somebody must know where they come from?

In my limited experience, I've found Mephisto to be more forthcoming with their breeding background than any other company out there. In some instances, I've seem them give credit to the breeder(s) from whom they sourced the seeds they use to find a mother plant and encouraged growers to shop there! Some breeders might say we crossed our popular A plant with B plant and found a special girl ect... But if you go look up A or B plant, you usually don't find much info in regards to genetics. Just my 2 cents!

I’ve already started my 2019 pop. Personally I know the best plants come from photoperiods/regular seeds. I love autoflowers but the problem with them is yield and the fact that you can’t replicate them and constantly have to buy seeds. Autoflowers are good for hobbyists, but for someone trying to have a consistent harvest and quality it’s a no go. Mephisto uses a lot of other breeder cuts you trade around like forum cut cookies etc... they probably reverse them with STS and use them in breeding regimes. The best auto can’t even hold a candle to a decent elite cut. There is no comparison, the ruderalis also effects the cannabinoids.

I’m off to grab some shelving
So I can go vertical, save a bunch of space

Yum...I Like to stick a bit of mint into my joint...sounds like something I would enjoy......and..she is a Looker....



Check the first post @CTb1 ...it tells you what Teams are in here...
Short Stuff is an Independent Battle ..your update will be in the Team HQ...



We have Talked to Mephisto about photo before @EvilScotsman ..but they are only interested in retailing Autos...

You got any idea what genetics they use? Only grown 1 meph auto and it was one of the best smokes I've had. The photos they use to make em must be absolutely lethal.

Cos they'd be even stronger !

Some people have forgotten where autos come from let alone grown them brother [emoji3]

Yeah @daggersstrain it has been 11-12 years since the current Autos hit the market....
Back in my day.....they only sold them as 25% Auto..and you had to make your own....these kids nowerdays are Spoilt...

Yeah mate I like growing autos. Only had 1 strain I'd give less than 7/10. Had a couple auto strains that nearly wiped me out. Ripleys og from mephisto Is an absolute miracle of a plant. Can tell the difference when you grow photo and auto of the same strain though. I'd part with a fair chunk to get my hands on the mephisto mother plants. Somebody must know where they come from?

Yea u got that right and honestly autos was garbage back then

On my first grow I had Autos and photos......I hadn't tried either.
All the Trolling at the time said Auto's were low potency...so I' reading all the trash talk as I'm growing wondering if I had done the right thing.....before the Autos were ready hubby and I were getting high smoking just the sugar leaves...we had been on bought bud..and the sugar leaves beat it hands down...

So I harvest the Autos and we were Happy little bunnies....but after al the trash tak I'm Thinking Gawd..when these photos finish we are going to be floored by the strength of the compared to the Autos......and was completely disappointed when they weren't.

Even my very first ...25% Auto autos...Beat all but 1 photo period in strength/effect....that is why I went Auto from the start...if I could grow a perfectly formed THC tric in 8 weeks.....Why wait..?

I'm looking forward to 2019 so much...Autos hitting photo Harvest weights and photos matching Autos grow times..

It is going to be very Interesting...we'll See which comes out Top at the end of the Year....
and..we'll have Watched it all...Live.......

I don't really have a winter, the days just get a little shorter...... This aussie is ready for battle outdoors all year long here!

Cheers up @EvilScotsman ..you'll never have to Try...the seasons are wrong to have an outdoor to outdoor Battle with [HASHTAG]#teamaustralia[/HASHTAG] ...one of you would be winter...

Oh..that's an idea......we'll handicap the Aus Team by growing Scottish Summer against Australian winter..

 

[SeaTurtlesAreGreat2]

Here's my order. The b c blue berry is supposed to be the best shit ever . that's coming from the mouth of the guy I been talking to at the bank. He called the breeders and said ty that they was gods lol. I can't wait to grow it out but the rest is just as amazing

@EvilScotsman like @Need4Weed mentioned mephisto are really open about the genetics they breed from.
That ripleys og you mentioned was bred from an alien og from cali connection seeds.
