I beg your pardon? I didn't say that every CC bean was a keeper. I never said anything about how many packs are required to find the fire either and that statement applies to ANY breeder's seeds.

Anyway whose genetics do you suggest are better? I'm open to running anyone's in this search and herm's do not scare me in the least, nor does small yield. I'm hunting potency, THC primarily.

Anyway I am planning on crossing a Boss Hog male with a number of his girls and checking out his genetics that way. It's a lot cheaper to produce your own breeding then pay for their handful of seeds/pack.
That's right it easy people expect someone on a pedestal or a weed degree but if u go up north they still seed up a few branches n go for next years round nothing special keepers are in every camp and herms are in many camps as well.. I can't wait for someone's keeper when we can make our own great if not greater!!!

1 seed Buddha Tahoe OG fem freebie… grew poorly from seed, scrawny little fucker… but put it in flower where it blew up and grew some dank… slow to veg from clone but once it roots it's a monster with a perfumey smell and og'ish taste.

Exactly my experience. That's why I haven't killed the Purple Diesel. For me the oddest, most troublesome plants seem to have brought me the best high, go figure? Amazing how biology performs under stress.

Reserva Privada, Bhodi, Illuminati, Rare Dankness, Elemental Seeds. Some really good stuff comes from Cali Connect but for some reason there are more losers than winners with his shit. I rather go with someone that I can sprout some fire on every seed. I like to grow from seed and from clone but mostly seed!
Oh that's kind of funny actually. I've had better luck with CC than Bhodi! I haven't tried RD or Elemental. I agree RP has some good/great stuff. The best genetics I have are my Kosher Kush I got from them! I am flowering one of her crosses with a Girl Scout Cookie/Durban Poison cross.

Essentially at our sample sizes it's really tough to make any sort of prediction. Do you have any specific recommendations from Elemental or RD?

Their True OG is definitely a winner all around, their gummy bear is touted as incredible as well I forget the test but it was pretty high. Rare Dankness the ghost train haze, grape ox, el jeffe, rare darkness, karma bitch, dark shadow haze. The collective has stocked all of those and they were all dank as fuck.

CC is fine, I don't like swerve but when you find a real nice cut it makes you buy the seeds thinking your getting something that dank. I haven't found any gold yet there.

Sorry im too stoned to continue this, time for bed!

Maybe fire in CC beans but at least if I pop bodhi I know I'll have a better shot than CC in terms of quality and consistency of the offspring. Got no love for hermi plants and as much as I love OGs, I don't chase em.

is that the same as the grape og? the freebies we got? That fuckin guy can't seem to release a stable strain to save his life.
Yup, same one.....Huge ass plant though with crazy colas. I was changing nutes out last night and noticed some balls I plucked em off, but one of my other plants got polinated apparantly just a couple seeds I've found nothing too crazy

My bad the Grape OG and Grape Kush are different, but they were both freebies. My Grape OG hermied too in hydro, but it may be because it got a little stressed. I cloned both the Grape OG and Grape Kush and put the cuttings in soil so if they still hermie in the organic super soil then I'll really know the deal

iv learned a hermie on a 1st run doesnt mean shit to me. run your shit from clone and you might clear up that herpes. strains that had herpes cured from being cloned a few times: cherry mountain, cherry puff, power pie, ghost train haze1, im forgetting at least 1 other

For sho, My chem 91 hermied on me sometimes and sometimes it didnt...So easy to get stressed in DWC

imo, the 1st run the plant is stressed from not being in the same conditions as it was grown in. after cloning a generation/s it must acclimate which is awesome.

Okay just pulled out the 4th plant of my little CC OSD x SOG experience and can't complain. 1 + 2 grew some solid hashy nugs, with #2 having a more grapefruit aftertaste and #1 having a very sour/piney taste. #3 seems more of what Swerve was shooting for with a diesel piney taste, not as hashy as the first two, more subtle with a nice diesel smell. What I've smoked seems potent as fuck but I like to let other people tell me that. Haven't tried any of the 4th plant (#5) yet but it's different than the other 4. It's got a sweet smell, a kind of berry smell mixed with a sourness. Grew multiple solid tops, a bit stretchy, but yielded well. BTW the 5th or #4 is still flowering and seems to be the big yielder of the group.


Okay here's my question, #3 seems to have made some seeds in the lower popcorn area, I have 7 seeds I'm keeping to germ later on and there are probably a few more in the popcorn that I have in the hash bag. So have I been Swerved or since the plant was femmed is this Swerve's idea of a rebate :-P?

I think you swerved right out of the danger zone, had you let them run longer you might have had a whole room full of seeds. I have a bag of like 300 seeds from a run with boss hog and blue dream haze that wrecked my shit.
 
Ain't that the truth! I'm thankful that the DNA Lemon OG trannies seem to have only knocked up some bottom branches of the Goji clones, but trashing 2 plants after 10 weeks suXXX. I've got CC freebies the last 2 orders; green crack and gsc. They're in the tin w/ autos and other undesirables. Might toss 'em all outside around June, but they'll never get near the indoor rooms.
Hey toss the trash my way lol. I've had good experience so far only done two strains 2 fem beans of each. Phenos were close no hermies or anything but I've heard a lot of bad stuff and the customer service sucks

I have had good luck with CCs gear. Good quality plants and most importantly HERMIE-FREE!!!! I would have no worries about running his gear and there are quite a few strains that I would like to try....... Buuuuuutttt I wont be giving Swerve anymore of my hard earned money.

I have been swerved! I am not one to typically complain to a breeder trying to get free shit. I had an issue with some beans not germinating. I emailed Swerve just letting him know about the issue. I honestly didnt expect him to even respond. But surprisingly, he took the time to respond. He was actually pretty cool and asked me for a safe address and that he would replace them and hook me up! I was very appreciative and was not expecting it, so I gave him the address. We messaged a few more times but I have yet to receive anything from him.

I would not have cared had he just ignored my initial email all together. Or even had sent me a generic email just apologizing or saying "sorry but we do not guarantee germination, better luck next time" or even to tell me to buy some more and he would throw a few freebies in. Anything along those lines. But to lead me on and lie to me was a total douche bag move in my opinion. My wife had really wanted that strain, and I was going to order another pack, but I didnt when he offered to replace them. Well during that time they ended up selling out and I am unable to get them now. Soooo the situation kinda pissed me off and because he lied to me i will no longer "support" the cali connection.

* i do have a Grape Kush in flower, and she is beautiful! I do have a few other strains in the fridge that I will run at some point, but no more future purchaces
