The places around me typically will have clones and in my area (South Orange County) there's a lot of dispensaries and collectives so there's a lot of strains to choose from if you want to stay away from seeds. I am still needing to head in to LA to this one spot that has Sour Grapes. It was my highest yielder so far and everyone, including myself, loved the smoke. I little too much indica influence on the pheno I had for daytime smoke but for evenings it was awesome. I'm curious if I'll get the same pheno by taking a ride up to that club. They get there's from a guy that lives a little north of LA and have a bunch of Oaksterdam clone only strains from him if I remember right. I heard about it from another RIUer and have been meaning to go check it out.
I am glad I didn't buy the SLH clones I checked out BTW. I know a dude that had some delivered (sketchy) and put them into flower 3-4 days after getting them since they were verey well established when he got them. He put them in 3gal smart pots and a few days later flowered them. Anyway, I'm glad I didn't get them because he says they don't even look like the SLH he and I already grew from GHS seeds. He is not even sure it's SLH and if it is, he's got a crap pheno. Look like they will yield poorly and don't smell like SLH at all. I told him they were probably mis-labelled and he's got something different.
