Vortex from SubCool’s The Dank

Wait, did you carry the 2? I don’t think you carried the 2. Just kidding. Sounds awesome!

The f1’s from @Griftee arrived, the bad news is that the tube got crushed by the rollers, fortunately we only lost one bean, it could have been all of them, the lesson here is never send tubes in regular envelopes. But thank you very much dude, we appreciate it! :+1:these are headed to @Dirt_Wizard in the morning.

About gave me a heart attack when I read that man. You must have nearly gotten one too. Lesson learned. Good luck with the rest of the project!!!

So these are original f1s from @Griftee? I was assuming the were from a newer 5 pack, but since they aren’t in a TGA package are these from the 10 packs?

The 10 packs were TGA Subcool and the 5 packs were Subcool’s the Dank. I was hoping the run would be from the original TGA Subcool packs!

I am also hoping to get an Agent Orange co-op going…I thought I had found a place to buy these beans but still searching.

Mailman brought two seed packages today, both @Guitarzan 's F1s and the F2 pack from Genetic Supply. They sent some pretty :fire: freebies if anyone is on the fence about getting the F2s now, instead of waiting a year for the ones that will come from this project. Two freebies, (10) Chernobyl x Vortex and (5) Highland Oaxaca Gold x Jesus OG. There’s a code for 10% off I think it’s ROLLITUP10. Packages from @buckaroobonsai and @CADMAN still inbound to the Magic Wand Factory (soon to be the Magic Bean Farm)

I can add that 5-packs of TGA beans were for sale as far back as 2014 when i got Querkle and Apollo 11 x Vortex 5-packs. From a CA dispensary.
This was well before Subcool added the “Dank” name
So those are likely f1 orig. seeds. Good shit that is!

Also the Apollo 11 “baby poo” smell described, was for me a rotting Apple Sauce w Cinnamon smell and taste. Just very unique and old-school flavor.

I grew an organic Apollo 13 x Vortex that Subcool labeled “Apollo 13 bx” and it was the MOST SOARING high i’ve ever felt. It was great but not very functional at all. You could only just sit there w your head in the clouds.

I liked the effects of Vortex alone better because it was “clearer”. Vortex made everything brighter and exciting. It’s happy and highly stimulating. But not too racy like C99 or a pure Haze can be.

The closest i’ve found in effect to Vortex is Kali Mist, NL5/Haze, Jack Herer, and similar to but better than Jillybean, Super Silver Haze, East Coast Sour Diesel and Green Crack.

Genetic Supply is a great California seedbank. They sell 5-packs of MANY NorStar Genetics seeds. NorStar is a main breeder who sold many dozens of strains to Subcool.

By my getting 5-packs vs. 10-packs means i can afford to try out twice as many strains. Variety i do like.

So, @Dirt_Wizard

What is the breakdown on seed count?

@Kabuddha it’s 13 GroundBreaking F2 + 4 F1 from Grifter + 5 F1 from Guitarzan + 2 F2 from Cadman makes up to 24 to soak, we’ll see how many pop or thrive, and I haven’t decided yet how many of the GB F2s to include. I’m aiming for no more than 16 taken full term, ideally 12 with as many of those F1 as possible.

My vote is drop’em all….lol :grinning_face_with_smiling_eyes:

I wouldn’t use men f2 but only women would not mix f1 x f1 and f2 x f1
However, these are only my two cent …

Man, I would love some of SubCool’s genetics. I never ran his stuff, nor was I able to get any before he passed. Always was interested in his Jack the Ripper.
I have smoked Vortex that a guy I knew grew out and it was very potent, knock your ass off smoke. If that is what you plan to run, man I would give body parts for some of those beans.
