I had a message typed and clicked something and oops....

Anyway, I was going to cmail you to tell you how to start a thread, but I see you figured it out. Cubits is a bit different, but if you poke around a bit, you can usually find out what you want. Never hesitate to ask though!

What are you looking for in a dip? Spider, Round, UF? Scapes that are thick? Well branched? Lots of buds? Not sure exactly what you mean by strong... could be several things. And, important to know what form of flower, and even color you would like on top of that scape.

I don't grow a lot of dips anymore - although many of my seedlings seem to be dips.... LOL

One dip I can think of that has nearly Tet like strong oak tree like scapes is Warrell's Chief Black Hand. That thing could fool an expert into thinking it is a tet, with it's huge scapes, branching and high bud count.

I have not grown it in many years, and back when I did I didn't have the greatest of camera, but this will give you an idea what it looks like. It's a sooty blackish purple spidery.
