About day 50 since showing sex. ~ 65 since flip.
Getting the chop today. Out of 2 packs, I have found one outstanding plant, one full blown hermie, 3 plants that showed balls in early flower. Several other mediocre plants. Happy with the one I got!!! Good job Cabin fever.

Thanks for the feedback. So the 3 that showed balls early did you keep them?
Hows the smell on the girl pictured?
I kept them and ran them in my other room. They did bust and pollenate my existing run which kind of pisses me off but no sense being angry about something I cannot change. Just wasted energy.

The one keeper is pure og. The most OG smell that I have came across. Its like OG kush on steroids. Super sting branches, great vigor, and up'd yield.

The smell is pinesol, fuel, nail polish, lemon, pine. In that order. Real strong almost overpowering stink. I really like it. Probably the best plant Ive grown from seed. I hope the flavor and buzz is there. I will find out soon enough. Thanks for watching, everyone.

I am glad you found what you were looking for, but that seems like a high number of he-shes to deal with while finding the one. Were they 10 or 15 seeds per pack?

I was pretty tempted by Cabin Fever genetics after you started this thread, especially this strain as I love the Fire OG I currently have. But hearing about nanners has changed my mind. Same reason I won't spend a penny on CC genetics, fire to be found or not. Just my two cents.

Cheers on your treasure hunt! She is definitely a pretty girl!

I was thinking the same thing, but if kgp says it's a perfect example thus far of OG in bean so far, that's quite a feat I'd say.

I think that number does turn me off as well, only because missing one nanner would make me very unhappy

Here's my opinion on the subject.. As a og lover looking for og in seed form for many years, I've tried a good number of strains and breeders. I've found some nice plants but all have been a variation of real og.

One thing I've noticed is the more og the plant is (genetics wise) the more potential a plant has to hermie. Another thing I've noticed and might be some reasoning for finding a couple ball sacks early in flower is that og kush has a potential to intersex with small amount of stress that other plants can handle no problem. Why do you think there are so many s1's. It's in the genetics. Serve's male is a hot topic of conversation and many blame him but his fem line has the same issues. I've ran gear from several other legit, respected breeders that intersex early in flower. Serve is a douche and probably a good reason to hate him. Notice many breeders will use og but breed it to something more stable and sensitive.

Think about it, taking this plant from 24 hours light, which in nature is odd. Immediately to 12/12. I'm not a botanist by any means but I would think that would be stressful.

Enough rambling, my point being many stay away from pure og for this reason. It's in he gentics. Though proven clones don't show this trait, many of the off spring do.

When growing genetics like this I expect, and anticipate balls, full on hermie is bad, but a sack or two can be plucked off and never grow back. You just have to make sure to look and find them early enough. Which I failed at this run. But this smoke is for me, not entering a cup, if I pick out a couple seeds, I've delt with much worse things in life...

To score a super special plant is an exception, not the norm. It sure pays off when patience and diligence finally comes through.

Again, just my observations.

I like your hypothesis. Gotta take the good with the undesired.

Just plucked 2 ball sacks off this CC 22 I am growing in a party cup as a fuck around. It is fair to say this thing has seen its share of stress lol. So like you said I was vigilant and caught the nuts before the were fertile and no more have showed up. Literally the lowest of the low branches.

Awesome looking buds kgp. Any plans to try the forest fire x headband that cabin fever has? I am torn as to whether I should get forest fire or its offspring...

I sure was expecting more keepers,out of 2 packs..oh'well
I got a few packs,that are still in the bean popping list.

The forest fire is a regular bean yes?
I scoped up a few of Cabin Fever's feminzed Apollo mixes. I've got high hopes, especially since the only other source for Apollo seems to be from TGA

Well the smoke was a bit of a let down...

Nugs were covered in trichs, hard as rocks, almost tough to break. No larf, the smallest bud was still dense and had substance. Smell was on point with a quality og.

Flavor was a bit lacking, the smell didn't go into the flavor like I would have liked it to. Still better than mediocre smoke.

The high was rather boring. Did the job but rather simple.

7/10 from K

Sure was pretty and fun to grow. One more round and I think she's getting the axe.

I only compare it to my faceoff. Get into some shit everytime I mention it. People say it's not the same cut as thadocta. I don't really give a shit what it is. It's the best cut I've ever had. Blows everything out of the water. IMO

Anyway, looking for better. I don't think I'll ever stop. Never stop trying to be better.

Running a bunch of clone only strains. High hopes.thanks for reading.

Peace

K
