Purple City Genetics (PCG) appreciation thread

is that from Archive? i saw they had a crazy sale going on that. im trying my best not to buying more packs though for the moment. their Rainbow belts 2 was pretty killer.

the crinkle cut is the only pheno of legend og im familiar with. both times i ran her she had this floor cleaner pinesol thing going on in the exhale that i really liked. ask your buddy for the cut and give her a whirl. fantastic bud, too stretchy though, made it hard to keep her as a bonsai mom. i keep my moms in 4" pots and the ogs absolutely hate that for some reason. i picked up the oaksterdam og cut aa few months back. im taking a pause to work out some lifes chores but when i get back into the growing mode she will at the top of my list. similar structure, kind of annoying to keep bonsai. ive gotten lazy growing too many cookies cuts that stay compact / have minimal harvest trimming.

tag me if you ever run those hazmats. pretty much anything in the chem or og families has been a treat to grow for me. the structure is obnoxious but the flower is worth it.

@Zanzibar enjoy! Bob Hope is legit one of my favorite cuts that PCG has put out over the last few years. I hope you enjoy her as much as i do. she produces buds with strong fruity terps of medium thc strength that leave me super motivated to get shit done. trim her by hand, she get really mangled in a tumbler.

Alas, I don’t think the Bob Hope will make it. After a long road trip, and now in the extreme heat of our desert, I think she’s just succumbing to it all. I’d wanted this cut for awhile now. Such is how it goes sometimes

Oh nooooo! Dang man I feel for ya. When I move my clones long distance I keep them in a cooler. The heat is an absolute killer. Lost more than my fair share of clones this way

I still have that cut and would be glad to share, though it’ll have to wait until probably oct when I have both the time and space to let her fatten up.

My first big breeding project once in back up and running is going to be to make a shit ton of s1s to pass around as freebies. Bob hope is a cut that I think alot of haze fans out there would enjoy having in their gardens

No! What a bummer. I had Zev from them, but it had to travel a few hours in less than ideal conditions, and ended up not making it. When I got the cut, I posted I scored Zev, and was shocked at how many people came out of the woodwork like “You got the REAL ZEV?!?!?!?!” Had no idea it had an underground following like that.

Wasnt zev their sr71 purple kush x gushmints cross? I missed that one. Was supposed to get so purple that the bud looks almost black. I didn’t get to run her. Interestingly enough I just looked up zev to see what her lineage and notice they’re selling their own cross labeled as sr71 (Oaksterdam x Street Guru) which is definitely not the same as the old sr71 purple kush cut. So confusing.

I don’t remember the cross, but that does sound right. Was so bummed!

Slurty3 is a classic, tried and true. I’m curious about Curacao, we don’t get a lot of true orange or citrus down here. Let us know how those terps work out.

Whered you source the cltvd cut? I thought they went out of business

A guy on discord who vends clones in the states.
I’m pretty sure they are still around. I was able to get on a site that I’m pretty sure was theirs

Maybe it’s out of date. Seems some pages aren’t working.

Cltvtd was pcgs biggest competitor, there were several dispensaries near me that stocked their gear. Around 2022 they essentially disappeared off shelves. Not sure the story behind that. Their apples and bananas cut is worth looking out for. Thanks for the link, looks like they’re still in business but non of their retail partners are even remotely close to me.

I asked the guy I got it from.

He said that they are in a legal Battle with compound and it’s having a big impact on why they aren’t as available.

@Justblazin here is a few grams of the slurty cut. Everyone loves her, she has a nice gassy terps thing going on coupled with lime green buds, orange hairs and a blush of purple. Give her the full 10, the last few weeks she starts really packing on the weight.

You’re looking for compounds apple and bananas breeders cut? Shouldn’t be too hard to find, it’s wildly distributed. Cltvtd distributed it for years. Gushmints is a better cut though, a&b has better terps but not nearly the same vigor
