I did the jabbas stash which is the bubba x snow lotus, I got the taste for bubba from a pheno of sunshine #4 from bodhi
I just started some seeds from a feminized hybrid of Triangle Kush x reversed Hollywood Pure Kush.
@shamus you mentioned you have grown the HPK, is there anything I should be looking out for to spot phenos that carry some HPK infuence?
What would you look for in a keeper pheno from this hybrid?
@Heritagefarms have you grown the triangle? what did you think of that compared to the cuts that were circulated in California like tahoe, platinum, sfv, etc?
It has been years since I have grown feminized seed. should I be worried about stability?
I was planning to include these plants alongside an important preservation breeding project to make some additional hybrids, so I don’t want to take any risk if these might herm.
Vigor
ive grown all those as well
At one point I had 20+ diff clone only OG’s
Ran them all with undeniable provenance
At this point I can count the OG’s I haven’t ran on one hand
Triangle is a great cut, not huge yielding, more kushy then OG if that makes sense to you. Still an Og tho
SFV is a great all around cut unfortunately swerve selling seeds as SFV really fucked the legitimacy of cuts most get leading them to think it’s sun par
Platinum is meh
Tahoe is great I’d say it’s a top 5 right there with triangle and HPK
Deadhead OG was good, that was a hybrid of sfv and chem. Really nice forest floor moss and soil smell. In my outdoor grow the pistils used to turn pink.
I think the high from the platinum was less nuanced and more knockout. I grew it for a while in a greenhouse. Not the best OG but it had good medicinal value, and was good for making concentrates. Small dense buds, good calyx to leaf ratio. Classic 3 blade leaves.
It also had that og trait of producing a ton of resin on the underside of the guard leaves.
I would love to find a seed line that expresses that trait.
I’m pretty sure the triangle I had was not legit so I killed her after one run. I know somebody with a legit verified triangle but don’t trust the mail so I’m missing out on her and the sunset sherbet he has
I’ve grown a lot of og cuts over the years and the ones I keep and continue to grow are the original that came from Florida and the ghost.
The ghost is not the best yielding plant but has a nice uplifting trippy head high and great flavor, the original has a different more kushy then sour flavor, no lemon and a very narcotic your day is going to feel more difficult high.
Yeah I’ve smoked some fire deadhead
Swerves first release was amazing
After that tho it went downhill
But amazing plants were still found [quote=“zephyr, post:191, topic:84437”]

I don’t really think there’s a bad clone only OG, if you put in the time to understand any of them and truly dial them any could be top notch smoke
Like if given the chance to get any (if anyone reading this is taking my words to heart) don’t not grab something because it’s not “the best” OG. They’re all good pot
the best OG is the one you dial. It’s an anthem lol.
cuts are fine to mail, the DEA classified clones and seed as hemp product
Just label it properly ya dig
Double vac seal and don’t contaminate the outer layer
I had a goof ball from Ireland send “someone” the livers in a fucking ziplock lol
I was pissed
I’ve been seeing a lot about folks saying the joshD and ghost are the same.
what you think about that?
crazy composer is fucking slaying the ghost on IG rn
Dudes got that magic touch
I saw that his Tropicana cherries looks fire also , I think somebody would be very hard pressed to find josh saying they are the same. Tons of other people do believe that and he says it’s the same cut it just changed over time…
I mean he’s selling a story
it’s in his best interest to have the “joshD” be the “better” one ya know
I don’t have any opinion on if they’re the same but if everyone else is saying they are, and he’s not… someone’s not telling the truth lol
I don’t really think genetic drift is as prevalent as folks say, it’s just an excuse
I’ve had so many old ass cuts (30+ years) with amazing vigor etc
they all aren’t that way but
it exists I just think it’s an excuse
people try and say that about sour and it’s just not the case. They’re all diff cuts that came about from
Accidents or lies thru out the years
doesn’t mean they’re not dank but
some are the same but they’re actually the same just different names, no drift etc you know what I mean?
my friend that has that opinion on the ghost told me the joshD was one of his favorites when I asked him before.
I’ll have to grab it again
Got it 3-4 years ago… well… I got the 92 and the joshD at the same time. I thought they were the same for some reason before hand I remember thinking that idk why
I never flowered either for whatever r reason and ended up culling em
To be honest I’ve never even watched the whole history of og kush thing with him
Haha
Just parts friends told me to watch
Exactly. The Platinum OG was the one that worked best for that particular greenhouse grow, and very medicinal for migraines and pain relief.
I just read a summary of it on IC
I don’t believe much of it lol
I think it’s people taking credit for shit they stumbled upon the same time others were
They’re just the most vocal
The story after 98-99 sure I believe it
For anyone curious
It’s not a summary of the interview but instead a dudes on investigative work
SMF is a cool dude
my first indoor grow I ran a white erkle he made that smelled like cherry cream soda
this was long before he ever had a seed co
Was a lot better than raskals version
I still miss that cut
and then also that first grow I ran unreleased raskal gear called super alien kush, it was raskals super skunk x alien kush
and I could honestly be remembering it wrong
Maybe it said 92 OG/JoshD
as I definitely wasn’t sent seed stock
I just don’t put any of these dudes on a pedestal
I know a lot of these “canna celebs” fairly well
there’s well known folks who don’t believe much of what he says. They won’t say so openly there’s no need for the drama
Me I’m nobody I don’t give a fuck lol
my homie true grit finally found the master, he’s been looking for the real forever
I would say the others you mentioned aren’t as hard to find tho
That’s subjective however and I shouldn’t say it like that
depends on who or where you try and get cuts from
I have no experience with Strianly or whatever that sure is where you buy beans and cuts
or like clone sellers and stuff
I feel ya , I’ve definitely heard some people sound unsure if they believe it all and everybody involved has something to say that seems to fit together but also at times contradict or conflict with other aspects of what is told. It’s amazing how much attention some people in the cannabis community get or have gotten while others go unnoticed by the masses. The true old school breeders that did the work when it was dangerous and super illegal dident make a habit of documenting things and those who knew them dident talk. A lot of peoples connects told tall tales in regards to where it came from to avoid people knowing they were the grower like I can hook you up but I have to go to this crazy dudes house and you can’t come. That was the standard prota call , also kept people from asking for fronts or deals. In god we trust all others pay cash lol
Also chem 91 is definitely around
While I’m sure there’s plenty of fakes it’s not as hard as it once was to get
and the unvariegated D is still kept pretty fucking close but the variegated D is pretty accessible
And the variegated won’t always express that way if it’s really healthy it won’t
But the one that doesn’t never will regardless
I’ve ran both
I had the unvariegated first actually
skunktek whored out the Tahoe so, I’m sure just be patient and that wish will come true
rather positive he gave out the real, I think I know who gave it to him and they’re as solid as they come.
any rare cut is gonna have plenty of fakes
tons of people are soooo sure they have the real
and people create sagas to profit from it
Controversy makes money
if you knew fillial OG beans existed would you give any fucks about any of these cuts beyond the “originals”? lol
Another cut a lot of people think they have and don’t is animal cookies
That 09 animal is the most ridiculous Shit I ever heard
Like well known respected folks be having a fake ass animal lol
I’m finally trying cannarados green thin mint to see if it’s the same green thin mint I grew in 2010-11’
I called it the pre forum at the time due to what I thought I knew about cookies
I was and still am that way
wanna find the gems you still gotta be a cowboy with the numbah’s
I just don’t tell folks I grow
Only two friends and direct family know I do
and all you fine folks
that’s why Ive always loved the forums
Only place I could share what I do
Yeah I can get the chems in Southern California and the triangle and sunset from another place but I haven’t seen the Tahoe or master in some time and the la confidential I could only ever get from one person who lost his mind and moved to Hawaii and I haven’t seen or heard much about her sense.
I have Tahoe og beans from master Thai but that’s a whole different subject and line supposedly and I promised not to give the line out if I ran and made more for myself even though he let plenty of packs out to people who probably won’t keep that mindset, also sitting on some of his uncle fester beans and ATF as are a few other members here. Master Thai Tahoe og is very similar in relation and genetics to the blue orca plant that boel made popular and swami holds onto for dear life. I know boel members who don’t even hold that line anymore but still have Mexican gold lines and hazes.
I don’t think boel members are running around telling people they’re boel members lol
Hey I do organized crime guys!
For fucks sake
this shit is getting out of hand
I have that pre pre pre pre G13 from BOEL members who still manufacture L$D at 1310 E Olympic Blvd Los Angeles , CA 90021
They source their di3thyl-4min3 from Gary at 255 Winston Dr, San Francisco, CA 94132
I did run “the one” for a couple runs tho
It wasn’t half bad
Any folks actually involved in the actual shit and talking about it now are long retired and incredibly fucking careful still
there’s morons in any organization I suppose
Animal cookies 09 is very easy to get legit one…st8flame aka tone gave whole bunch of people the cut thats how it got out in 2010 ish…jigga was charging them a light for cuts back then…thats how seer got the cut and just renamed it…no such thing as animal cookies it just a gsc diff pheno from original jigga made
I had the f1 Durban, thin mint, and cherry pie around the same time
animal came later
I got the second thin mint jigga touted around 2014 that yielded like crazy but didn’t punch after prop let the forum out and they needed to regain exclusivity
Berner sold evoke a cut for 500$ that I believe was the same as the green thin mint I initially had in 2010-11 years later
I still have pink lemonade beans from back then
09 animal came about because of fucking justblazen or for those that weren’t around “seed junky” as he’s called now
Sounds like you know your shit haven’t seen you around welcome to my thread stay a while glad to have you lol
