so i stole a family members phone while over for the holidays because mine was broke by my growing pit bull
lol wasnt mad just being cheap. I couldnt resist not giving an update tho… But still as planned the pack recieved and opened inspected.Interesting read…
Pollen tube interacts with female plant tissue
Led by Ueli Grossniklaus, professor at the Department of Plant and Microbial Biology at the University of Zurich, an international research team has now demonstrated how the pollen tube interacts with, and responds to, female plant tissue. The pollen tube does so by secreting extracellular signals (RALF peptides) which it uses to explore its cellular environment and regulate its growth. Two receptors on the cell’s surface enable it to perceive the secreted signals and transmit them to the inside of the cell.
Intracellular signals regulate growth
Working together with the teams of Christoph Ringli from UZH and Jorge Muschietti from the University of Buenos Aires, the team around Grossniklaus was able to determine that further proteins had to be active for the pollen tube to recognize the signals – LRX proteins. These proteins were identified at UZH 15 years ago by Beat Keller and his research group, but their function had previously not been clear. LRX proteins are localized in the cell wall surrounding plant cells, where the signals can dock. “We suspect that the pollen tube explores changes in the cell wall by sending out signals and responding accordingly, for example by realigning its growth,” says Ueli Grossniklaus. It is rare for plants to produce and perceive signals with the same cells. The researchers suspect that this allows the pollen tube, which grows extremely quickly, to faster respond to changes in its environment rather than being dependent on signals from other neighboring cells.
Molecular insights open up wide range of potential applications
The signaling pathways described by the researchers are involved in many other basic processes, and knowledge of how they work opens up numerous possible applications for plant breeding. “By better understanding how these proteins work, we can not only influence pollination and seed formation, but also the development and growth of plants or their defense against pests,” concludes Ueli Grossniklaus.
Those are some nice looking seeds! All signs point to success!!
You could count me in! Very interesting sounding strain and I have no Cherry. Awesome guys!
peace

The difference in a day
Pictured in the background is a reveg im letting grow back for giggles. Its a recent harvest split completely at the base. since i run no till i was about to re-use the pot and saw it said im coming back… so im just watching it until it take up space.
Woo Hoo! Let the grow begin!! I can’t wait to see how they perform for you
Danggit! I have just recently received "The Bible " Marijuana Horticulture by Jorge Cervantes and that’s how I found this place. Looks like I should have checked you guys out the first day I read about it.Sometimes that’s the breaks tho. Can’t wait to see some of these beauties in full flower, only wish I would be seeing it firsthand. Maybe next time
I added you to the recipients list. I’ll PM for shipping address and when seeds are ready we’ll contact you to arrange shipping.
Thank you so much. I love this site already. Although I have found that most of the growers I have met or talked to are some of the coolest down to earth ppl. Once again thank you
I’m a big fan of Greenpoint. I’ve grown a lot of his stuff and a few things ive noticed in all his crosses 1. Agressive fast germination prone to vine like stretch if not we’ll lit 2. Early sexing 3. quickly root bound. The Greenpoint stardawg is a beast.
That stardawg is a stud no doubt. Seems to drown out a lot of the females he skeets tho
The Cackleberry, jamoka, dream catcher, and full moon fever are pretty true to their mothers.
I’ve heard he drowns out just about anything else.
One of my sisters Cackleberry reeked of cherry air freshener.
Thanks for info. Definitely a lot to be found in GPS gear
Damn it 
, are you trying to stir the seed fever in people? You’re making me need to go visit the GPS 
site, 
.
I try not to be a fanboy but every single cross of his I’ve grown has simply blown my mind.
Keep it fed give it enough light and you can’t loose
I’ve heard bad things about his non stardawg stuff though.
I too am a fan of Greenpoint seeds. Always shoots tails 100% germ and vigorous plants. I just popped 4 of their Golden Nugget. Of course the Copper Chem is a delight to grow but I did get 2 males. Looking forward to smoking it soon. Hope you’re well and lifted my brother.
