G13 Labs - C99?!?

You didn't know? everyone thinks G13labs doesn't have the fire....
It's their loss, you guys think your going to find special plants buying single beans?

I found 2 PExp. in a 5pack that were top shelf hard nugs, the other 3 were avg. high yield with low flavor/potency.
Should be easy to find the killer keepers in a 5pk. Their OG13 was all above avg. with one real winner(4/5 germ.)
The keepers seem to stretch more + yield less, but have much higher potency+better flavors.

Same genetics as everyone else???? Not that many people rocking C99, I can only think of 3 other breeders off hand.
same genetics just different names its what a lot of breeders they don't breed their own they buy from a big producer and give them different names for different companies its mostly the fem companies that do it. its a really shady business but their are a few legit breeders out there.

What other "breeder" has Pineapple Express (photoperiod)? It must be mass produced from these people too!

been growing Pineapple Express for a couple years, it is by far the favorite of the land. I was reading that this is just like PE but an upgrade, have seeds coming and well, we all know it will be about 5 months before I know. :+) the 7-8 week budding time is same as PE and im excited about this also. I already have double tall boy filters as the PE stank that much. Good luck to anyone growing this and i hope it turns out as good or better than their PE.

I'm sure there will be keepers+average plants, you can't avoid a few average plants.
G13labs hasn't let me down yet, a keeper in every pack so far.

I'm spoiled from the clone-only around me; so it has to display something real special for me to give it keeper status!

ive only grown pineapple express from G13. i got it as a freebie a couple yrs back. it was my last grow before my current one actually.

I didnt find it to be a bad grow at all. i was hesitant cuz i heard lots of mixed reviews but mine was pretty good. had a citrus/fruity scent in veg...it vanished in flowering and returned slightly in the cure. definitely not a clear pineapple scent.

loads of trichs. grew it in a 1 gal pot and got almost 2.5 oz under a 150w hps. not bad. above avg potency in my pheno. not a 1 hitter or something id call top shelf but its definitely heads and tails over typical street weed.

i didnt enjoy the high enough to buy a pack though.


for some reason ive always been kinda skeptical on G13. after i grew the PE i relaxed a bit but now i seen this it makes me wonder. however for all i know they bought mosca's bx or female seeds version and did a fem cross with another C99. idk.

all the say is its "grapefruit x pineapple" (or maybe the other way around)

it must be fairly new since some other members are excited by my find.
...I thought this was a very good theory...

IMe g13s genetics are pretty mediocre not too bad tho I say why not try it since they are pretty cheap. U can find keepers from any company if u grow enough packs I'd say
I have grown c99 from female seeds I had two phenos one that was a VEry heavy yielder they seemed pretty legit I chopped some at 42 days and it was a very nice sativa high can't beat that in 7 weeks anyways that's just my .02

Mediocre...YOu haven't tried the more expensive beans apparently!
My worst G13labs bean wasn't as bad as some of the expensive beans I've bought.
AkA Cali Connect+RP/DNA+OGraskal>not saying there isn't fire in exp. beans, but I didn't find them.

G13labs has a taller phenotype which tested higher THC% then the clone-only here in Cali ~19.39%(clone-only)/21.62%(my keeper).
They are buying my clones now...

I haven't tried their C99, Pineapple Exp. is my motivation+day-time smoke.
The thing about new breeder's is there isn't any stability(including G13labs)
The beans are all S1 + it's almost impossible to find identical plants in S1 strains.
I enjoy the search for special plants + perfectly stable strains wont produce anything but the same plant.

I've found some great OG13 phenotypes, not quite like real OG.
Majority of phenotypes have the lemon/pinesol/fuel/hash flavors + head/body combination buzz.
I found a phenotype that I'm going to have tested with Pinesol+hash flavor, but low yield.
The lemon-fuely tasting ones aren't quite as potent, but yield double.

They created a nice strain with OG13, and I'm glad they didn't just call it "og kush".
The RP/DNA OG kush(plain>not #18) didn't impress me as much...
OG18 did impress me(stock from 3 yrs. ago), but now the clones are available @ dispensaries.

The reason the X-Line C99 is an "outdoor" strain is because it is finicky and troublesome indoors. It's likely to hermie indoors, but outdoors it's natural and less likely to happen.
The outdoor c99 has auto genes in it. Their c99 is real c99. Am growing it again. I also still have orig. Bros Grimm c99 beans. It is true to the original with the pineapy pheno. Very trippy indeed.

Well I guess I should add that I've only tried g13's ww,blue venom,blueberry gum, cheese, raw diesel
Also should add that I've tried a LOT of different breeders. Hundreds.
Some of my favs are gage green bodhi DNA/RP ograskal soma serious mr nice mandala
and several others.. And yeah they are more expensive. U will find duds in expensive gear and keepers from cheap seeds
Female seeds c99 was on point like i said they r one of the cheapest breeders and people can hate all they want but Barney's farm pineapple chunk has a place in my garden and even ghs I had a keeper lemon skunk (took lots of packs to find ONE)

Like I said g13 doesn't really stack up. FOR THE PRICE they aren't bad I don't always have 100 bucks to drop on seeds and they are a breeder u should CONSIDER if ur on a budget
That said I'd like to try all of their strains cuz that's just what I do try every strain I can bc u never know u may do d the one I e been lookin for if their og13 is anything like og18 I'd cop it. And I have been wanting to run sour candy but its always out of stock

Got a little off subject expensive vs affordable beans but here is c99 from female seeds I'd reccomend them bc they are cheap and legit even tho I'm not really a sativa guy(only in the am)

One question... are you talking full packs or singles?
I've never grown those G13labs strains, only the new ones PE/CHZ/OG13/SourJack

Finding a keeper with singles is laughable...DNA had some terrible phenotypes in the packs I bought
I buy 2-4 packs when I try a strain> PE(3pk)/CHZ(3free beans)/OG13(4pk.)/Sourjack(2pk.)
I found a keeper in almost every 5 pack(except CHZ > was just avg)

3packs DNA OG18(double the price) Most $ I've ever spent on a strain + be dissapointed.
One real keeper out of 3 pk. and it was killer sour nugs, but most people don't buy 3 packs.

I'm in Cali, so a majority of buds don't impress me.
Over 20% THC on the G13labs keepers I've had tested proves to me they are keepers.
The dispensary buys my Pineapple Express+OG13 clones+bud which is a good sign of quality.
+OG18 is sold regularly there and it has similar test results.
These Fem. breeders need to work on STABILITY.

Looks like a heavy yielder + legit, If I needed a Sativa I'd try C99.
I'm into hybrids + mostly indica plants
