Down here in LA, you've still got to search out clone only elites in clone form.

I don't know why people complain about Cali Connection, because what swerve has done is taken it upon himself to send out the most popular clone only strains from this area. He's not Gage Green or Reserva Privada, but really, would you want him to be?
everyone wants access to genetics. no one wants to deal with reality.
i simply appreciate that swerve is here to answer genuine questions, which get buried in the garbage.

if you guys want 100% stable clone only lines but are not in cali, i suggest you find some laboratory to get you cell cultures. that is the only way.
and if you think seeds are expensive... haha
good luck getting girl scout cookies (or whatever stupid fad is next) cell culture mailed to you. my estimate is between 2 and 40K depending on the fad status.

if you have a friend they can mail you cuttings. but if you had a friend like that you probably aren't reading this thread anyways because you already have the best pheno of OGwhatever mothered out.

thanks for being a part of RIU Swerve. I'm sure there are members who have honest questions for you.

I will say almost all the seeds I spoke of were regular except the Lemon Larry which I did have problems with. But I have had alot more problems with Greenhouse and Dutch Passion seeds in the past (wasted probably $500 on the ever herming blueberry, same on DJ Shorts damn grape krush that almost never germinated) so I know there is alot of gear that's much worse that don't get shit on like this. And I def don't agree that his lines are watered down, at least not the ones I have tried. I say the same about Reserva Privada's OG kut too. Straight fire, while other places name there seeds og kush, or chemdog and they don't even seem related, let alone a worked self pillination. But how many seed vendors are out there that send someone free seeds just for them saying they hermie'd? Not many. I will give DNA boys props for sending the Tude another pack of Silver Bubble for mine not germinating. I never even asked. Just wanted to know if they changed the line at all and they sent me a pack. I wish other vendors had that attitude, but in this business it is a very rare trait.

dont get me started on DP's fem blueberry knock off. which costs WAY more than any cali connect bean. i grew the real blueberry from seed for a decade, and trying DP's version is one of my only regrets. waste of a run.

This is a Moderated forum. When a member posts using verbal abuse, or derogatory language, it will be deleted. It has nothing to do with your inane opinion, so rave on.

My opinion is that you guys complaining about hermies don't know much about breeding, hermaphrodites are a property of hybridization. So you should grow only pure sativas or indicas, but oh yeah, you can't find any of those, so just keep complaining.


:mrgreen:

Nice bit of hypocrisy there , since labeling another as " inane" , saying " rave on" , and then of course calling into question the basic intelligence of all who fail to share your *erroneous* opinion..........ALL those things are derogatory.


And of then there are all the ridiculous arguements flying about " Swerve isn't is bad as Arjan"...............AND? So?


That makes his crap right does it? His crap **AUTOFLOWERS** on me during veg and it's *ME*? Yeeeaahhhhhhright , guess I learned nothing in 35 years of growing this plant.


What folks were asking for was honesty , civility and customer support for the product , the cornerstones of most businesses. They got none of those , instead they got an attitude of " it's a privilege for YOU to give ME ( Swerve) money so shut up and send me more money and by the way you're a lower form of life."........


Swerve is one of those unique parasites on the trade that have arisen in the modern era since quasi-legality , he'd have long since been ostracised and blackballed in the old days.

no offense but you should have pulled that giant crows foot off for the picture.
hehehe prob' right, no offense taken lol, but it's not my pic', but in the next 7-8 weeks my test grow of the White Kush x Blackberry Pie should bring some bud porn more to your liking Matt.

I'm a fan of your hash vid's bro, have you tried Grape Stmoper for extracts yet?? She's pulls off a sweet yeild for bubble :weed:

munkie this stuff is amazing!! whitch strain is it? GGG are very cheap compared to many other companies
Cheap but doesn't affect the quality any, that is a new strain currently in testing White Kush x Blackberry Pie. I got this goin atm along with 6 other new GGG test strains. As well as all my bought GGG gear and saved clones since last year. 2-3 keepers in every pack of GGG gear (10 seeds) reg's, no mass produced fems using a shitty formula thats proven not to work lol. (How can so many growers be so wrong??)

Solid gear and fresh & exciting crosses nobody else is putting out. I've grown CC gear too and only Tahoe really stood out, and even with that I got shitty germ rate (7/10) and only 2 females that needed 11 weeks veg from seed and 72 days flower in hydro to really get them to produce.

But everything I've run and am running from Gage Green, Sure Fire and Dankhouse is straight up potent flame Mari with more females to choose from than I can space. Most are half the price of Hermie Con too and way more reliable to run for any level of grower too.

Come visit us over at the GGG forum or Cannazon and see how much of a difference there is in standards

I totally disagree with this statement. Unhybridized land race genetics are often full of hermaphrodite tendencies because there is nobody to thin the problematic plants. The only selection is natural selection and the hermaphrodites are especially successful at propagating. Hybridizing has nothing to do with creating hermaphrodites unless the parents were already prone to it.

Why post anything at all on a public forum if one can't take a lil' constructive criticism is what I say fella, some folks get too defensive. Not me I'm a true stoner/grower lol, I just love to grow my way through the dankage get mashed and share my exp's as I go. And criticisim is what takes you to the next level in any chosen path in life, I like to learn from it and further my own art.
