Norstar Genetics Elite Tester Program 2022-2023

Hey Man! I’ve been looking at some of the Norstar lines for a while and absolutely fell in love with his crosses and the genetics he’s using. I managed to pick up some Zapotec seeds from a previous release, but only one of them survived unfortunately. My family’s from Oaxaca and Jalisco, and golden sativa phenos have a soft spot in my heart haha

I’d love to connect and hear more about your experiences as a tester for Norstar! I was just watching some of Joel’s YouTube videos on breeding and really want to bring some more quality sativa genetics to Illinois!

A couple tops are getting big.

Smells are getting more diesel dominant it seems still with a skunky cheesey funk undertone but not as strong of a cheese like smell as it was a week or two ago.

Genetic Supply still has 15 packs and even 50 packs in stock of cherrygasm F1!

I hope that helps, and if you don’t have the money to buy seeds right now, which I totally understand seeds aren’t cheap, then I’m going to preserve those to F2, along with many other Subcool strains I have in the vault!

So ultimately whether you buy them now or stick around and follow my threads I will definitely get that one preserved, as I grew it back in 2015 or so and I absolutely loved it.

Glad you found it!

Yeah, it would be awesome to keep that one around and definitely also any offspring that you made from it.

I always try to recommend people to Genetic Supply as they have always been great to me very helpful, honest, down to earth, and good people.

Plus, it’s the best place to get Subcool related strains, whether you buy producers overstock that they made, or Badgers batch, he has JTR, Qrazy Train, Chernobyl, Cuvee F2’s or even Norstar genetics crosses with some TGA gear like Deadlights crosses or F2’s or Jesus OG crosses.

Between them and Headiegardens where I get Bodhi, Copa, Doc D, and Strayfox from it’s hard to keep any extra money in my wallet at times lol

So this run was nothing but straight trouble. It happens I guess. Had some heat issues and humidity fluctuations, a fan crapped out on me and so did my old dehumidifier.

My plants kept taking longer foxtailing and never seemed to actually finish, but again between my environment issues I had this run, with some not perfectly stable genetics equals this mess.

I chopped everything and will probably be using it in hash production or edibles so my time isn’t completely wasted.

I talked to a buddy on roll it up who also tested for Norstar genetics around the same time as me.

He grew everything like he normally does and he has three or four keeper strains in rotation, but the new testers went Hermie and seeded all his keepers and messed up his run as well, so I admit, I did not have my environment dialed in like I should have, but definitely shows me that the last Norstar strain I grew that went hermie was not my fault as some of their Genetics are not completely stable and may need a different type of environment then say hot and humid Florida, even though I am indoors.

During mid summer heat and humidity still are pretty high inside which is why I have to run so many fans and dehumidifier 24 seven.

Wish I didn’t feel like I lost so many months, but I am preparing for the next run with some new approaches in mind.

I will probably be making a new thread for that grow, as it is not related to Norstar or Subcool.

I have been on a huge Bodhi and Strayfox collecting spree, so I’ll be popping some of those gems next I hope.

Still have some good ideas for F2’s I want to make, and once I have a dad or two in my stable I’ll be making lots of seeds via pollen chucking with moms and dads I like to share on here through giveaways etc.

Happy growing everyone. Have a good weekend. Peace!!
