Hey this may be a stupid question J, but have you grown the GSC without training/topping/fim whatevering? Just wondering if she doesn't take well to a certain training technique? I don't see why she would be like that, and so stubborn?? Curious if the CM will give it better structure? Twould be sic if you found a pheno that had the GSC bud, with a better way more workable structure. I hear ya on fussy plants too. I'm not a guru perfect grower, like the rest of us, but if dudes like JAWS can't get this plant to perform what does that say about the cut? I mean it seems like one of those cuts you need to run 4 times to dial. In the end those plants are no big deal once you figure them out, just another cut in the library. Sometimes I just so tempted to cull certain plants for just lettin me down. lol Like some cuts practically grow spider mites. You'll be fine then bam one bitch gets it and spreads it. Hard not to think that if that wasn't so fire I would cull it and not have such a SM weakness in the momma tent. Have any of you guys/gals seen a diagram or technique for culling plants lol I haven't, though we know it's personal preference, and common sense, but man I have tried to keep cuts that don't want to be kept lol Fightin it. Then don't miss them later lol
Either way I think that if the GSC has something to offer, but has crap for growth/structure breed her to some known studs! Maybe a sturdy Afghani with a smoking structure?! Eh just spitballin brotha... Aliendawg bubs with some lemony OG full melt on top! mmm Enjoy your evening Farmers!

ya ive grown her STRAIGHT--TOPED--MULTI TOP and for-sure she'd yield much better toped and more so multi toped, but damn she seems flopyer then the trainwreck...im thinking if one were to grow her staight up strip the lower postion of the plant and pinch the upper portion a couple time through vegging and let her vegg for 6weeks they could get a decent cols from considering the type of bud structure she puts out...
like i said im on my 4th run of her but actual its what im going to call my first real run of her, reason for saying that is in the past i really had no ide how to grow this strain and ive had big time problems along the way mainly the BROAD MIT if i ever had them but thats not a problem any longer..
the first one i did was a full on test just to see what she looked like I BOMB with that one it was a 15/18 inch two tower no bud producing piece of shite, the second run was much better but by the time she was done the whole plant went into the scrap pile with not a puff taking from her.....and she was the one youve seen many pages back in this thread she was the big girl i had taken pictures of in the tub, she looked awesome and then about 4weeks into flower she just went to shit and nothing i did seem to help.....
now this last time was the best i have done SO FAR she was untopped so she was very small again much like the first one but in much better shape and i had very little problems with that one other then her not really givening me that mint smell that ppl talk about with this strain, but right at the end i did get her to purple up just a bit nothing big time but still it was there....she drying as we speak so i'll atleast get a taste of her from the last round...
now 1-2 pages back you can see where im at with this the 4th run of her and she looks alot like the second run did and this time im going to give her more of my attention to see if i can get her to preform in a much better way, i still get a chocolate tootsie-roll kinda smell with her with a hint of mint but its nothing right in your face...
the Question for me about whether she real or not has been answered as far as im concerned im going with ya she the real deal, i cant explain why im not getting the over whelming mint smell but..
and also there is a guy here at the farm who is growing a GSC CUT that nobody seems to be saying is not ral and hes made/making HYBRIDS with that ppl are really wanting and he and i have the same EXACT CUT not only did we get it from the same circle of ppl at the mag we got it from the same EXACT person, so im not sure why hes is 100% YES SIR and mine "ummm i dont know maybe"...
there no doubt hes rocking his much much better then im rocking mine but just because hes runing his better dont make mine not the real deal, he says hes getting minty smell but he also has some really nice frost which i do not so maybe the minty smell comes with a good/decent coating of resin....
like i said many pages back on this cut and that was for NO ONE to take what i say about this plant to be solid on if she a good plant or not because i cant truly say that untill i get atleast one good run done of her, but i do believe i have the real deal.....
peace brother:)
