Hey everyone. I hadn’t realized that loompa farms has lost their Yeti line (not sure bout their clone of the Underdog) but I have two females going from my last few Yeti f3 seeds and would love to either acquire a few more seeds for a male or pollen as I think this line should be preserved. Some of the tastiest flowers I have ever had came from my previous seeds of it and the two I have going right now smell fantastic and remind me heavily of the other female I held.
Anyway thought i’d ask… or if anyone else keeps a clone or or has grown the strain would love to hear others thoughts.
I have what you seek.
IF youre looking at preserving this line and doing a club run id be more than happy to shuffle what I have out to you.
I think there are 6 f1’s there.
I would truly appreciate being involved in this somehow. I have had a beautiful love affair with Yeti OG for close to a decade and I recently lost my cut this summer. Positive vibes…
I have a few left from Cannavore. I think they are either f2 or f3. Been sitting on them for 5 or 6 years, maybe more. I really wanted to use them for breeding projects, but I would be happy to send what I have left. I agree with @OleReynard, that these should be preserved. I would think the 6 that he has are what you are really looking for, since they are f1. Another option would be for me to pop mine at the same time that you start your project. Perhaps then we could either trade cuts, or pollen. Sort of a collab ! lol
Hey @OleReynard nice man. How long have you had the F1s? How did they turn out? Still new to crossing / preserving. Taking F1 males to F3 females would equal what? Its a BX if you bring like the F3 or F4 and re-cross it to the Underdog right?
Really nice ganja… surely a plant to preserve and pass around. I am not into keeping the best things secret so would love to have the great people of OG have access.
I am into doing preservation run / working with someone else who is also running it at same time or whatever, but have to think about the timing as I need to finish current run and may be going away from the house for a few weeks after that if all works.
@TheShowMeHomie Yeah man I had a stupid AF lighting mistake or I wouldn’t even be asking as I had a really nice looking / smelling Yeti F3 male but I accidentally started flowering it and pollinated my whole tent of Elf Snack x Sunshine 4 and culled it as I was scared of pollinating the other 10 plants I had going.
@Jamescoldflame Sounds like a wicked cross man. Haven’t ever run anything with the Yeti crossed into it yet, although plan to run @stanknugzz77 yeti x tropicanna cookies someday here.
@stanknugzz77 I feel you man. I haven’t ever sent or received cuttings before but maybe we can link up down the line and get you one of these two females.
@mtntrogger Yeah for sure. From what I think I am gathering…Cultivated Choice Genetics made a Yeti F4 and actually returned the genetics to loompa farms at some point after they lost them(i think?). I haven’t seen any Yeti seeds for sale anywhere though.
@ifish Thank man. Who produced the F4s? Did you grow the others out? Any thoughts on them if so.
Theyve been in the freezer so I know they’re well taken care of on my end but I got these from someone else and I dont assume anything anymore.
As far as growing any out, the only ones I grew out came from a pack that I split with a couple others.
I didn’t care for their growth structure at first “phone poles” but finished nicely.
Good deal man, yeah was really asking out of curiosity as to how long the Yeti had been around in the first generations. I’ve had these F3s for probably 4 years now I want to say. I know what your saying telephone pole style lol… No branching… looks like these two may actually stack it up the pole decently.
Both the phenos… both smell really good. One has darker leaves and this huckleberry syrup with funk thing going on that is mouth watering.
I think I have ~5 or so F4s from Cultivated Choice:
HEADBAND HEADBAND HEADBAND! Terpene profiles include, gasoline, rotten Thai food, and burning rubber. Very few phenos will have a citrus and fuel profile. Indoors, 90% of the phenos are tall, lanky, and have a VERY high Calyx to leaf ratio. Outdoors, most phenos tend to bush out with a very branchy structure. Males from this F4 will produce a heavy amount of trichomes. Every female is a keeper!
I’d be willing to send them your way if you sent me some back in return when you made seeds. I also might be willing to hook up with you on a project and sling you some pollen if you wanted to do it that way.
What do you call the generation if you cross the F3 female to the F4 male, do you know? Those F4s sound really nice and their male description sounds great. Did you run them in the past? Lot of potential we have here in this thread to preserve these which is great. I am not really sure which generations re-crossed would be best.
I haven’t run them yet, so I can’t tell you anything more than the description. For preservation of the line, the F1s @OleReynard has with open pollination would be the best. Or even if you had more space adding some F4 males to the pollination wouldn’t be bad either. As many plants as you can grow, prioritizing the earliest filial generations is kind of the best possible preservation. If you’re trying to lock down a really good pheno, then crossing with a good later filial generation male and backcrossing is probably how I’d do it.
This seems like it’s starting to snowball into something even if we had multiple generations on an open pollination it would be better than the line being snuffed out we could call it a yeti remix though I agree the higher percentage of F1 the better I sure wouldn’t turn my nose up at a mix of generations
Yeah man pretty stoked to have so much feedback / interest / possible seeds available.
At first I was more just looking to find a male or pollen for the better of the 2 females I have here but thinking a full on open pollination preservation run would be pretty awesome and beneficial to all as well. Hm
had I known it was so uncommon I would have been more careful with them I think mine are F2
