Cali connection seeds what the deal

Real talk...I have not had an issue with hermis but i have noticed only about 35 -40% of the seeds i have gotten from them in the last 6 months have been female and the majority have been male... I guess its tough loss.

Running into this same issue myself. Out of 4 blackwater and 4 OGiesel I got a single BW female. I know it's not environment, I'm always 50% or above with other reg seeds (TGA, GGG, ect)

Sorry you had an autoflowering plant but I in no way mentioned Arjan in my earlier post(if you were in fact referring to me) and was not trying to compare the two breeders. Just saying problematic seeds come from all over the place. And I even said earlier that I have personally had problems with the Larry, but also alot of things I haven't had problems with coming from CaliConnect. But as for Gage Green and Emerald Triangle, I have been wantiing to try the emerald triangle genetics for a while. I can say that Alphakronic genes are cheap and I have got fire out of the eisbaer and snozzleberry for $35 a pack. I do think it sucks some breeders charge so much for things that are not tested as they should be. Especially when I can grab a pack of Alpha or even Reserva for $60 for an amazing purple strain (snozzleberry/ purple wreck) and not have the problems it sounds like Blackwater also has. I have one on week 4 or 5 now thats nice looking, but no nicer than the others I mentioned. Sorry, rambling. This is about customer service and like I said in my previous post, I have not encountered many breeders who have ever even heard of that word.

And I would like to add, for what it is worth. I tried Rez's genetics long before CaliConnection's and I never even had a keeper. Spent I don't know how much on ChemDoubleD and nothing but hermie after hermie and same goes for I think it was Alpha Diesel. And you think swerve is a jerk? Try that dude on for size. LOL. It is hard to find stable Diesel and Chem genetics. Before Elite got busted (for being a complete idiot), I got same amazing strains from him. The double dipped banana og, strawberry diesel, and the fire og. All great.

Someguy15 you just had bad luck 4 males you should be blaming the guy that put the seeds in the package or the mail man not the breeder.

Well my Ogiesel polinated the bottom half of itself lol. It also hit very very lightly a couple lower buds from my chem d, what I think is Ceasar (I grew out the mix pack), and a Tahoe. One damn closter of nannas I missed during all the routine checks. No biggie. The buds on the bottom of the hermie wouldn't amount to too much and the other may be 3 or 4 grams. But if that would have been a few sets right in front of the fan, my garden would be f'd and I could see how that would piss some one off lol

I place no blame... just share my experiences. I have 6 more OGiesel seeds to sprout eventually, will report back if I actually get any females.

Now you are starting to see the light!

But all this has been fixed,remember... must be you... it's your fault...has to be.
Now you must go back to newbie central with the rest of the people that grew TCC gear.

So i stand corrected ran into a hermi im my room a cpl days ago...thought about maybe stress but my room is almost 100% dialed in. So neways its only happening on the lower branches and only started showing 4 weeks into budding

Did you have reg seeds or feminized? And where is Swerve to tell you and hazeman that you're full of shit? Or that you must have fake beans or must be a terrible grower.

Another one,it's never ending....just wait till reports come out from the promo.

I wouldnt want any Cali Con u seeds period!
TCC has a much worse rep than even Green House seeds.
Why would i put that trash in my garden & fck up my grow?

EDIT:Replacements dont mean shit theyre trash too.

Ahh isn't that cute. And that's just a wunnerful way to actually handle your business and stand behind your product. And franhkly why would I WANT any " replacements" , I mean I already have plenty of bird seed.

So, would you really not try a seed you already have just because someone else said they didn't like it?! If I am looking at buying a seed and I have heard terrible things about it, I won't look at buying that seed really, but if I have it I will plant it just to see what grows...Everyone talks crap about how awful and hermirific Greenhouse Seeds is, but I sprouted a freebie of their Super Lemon Haze..and it is definitely the most awesome plant I have ever grown...although I haven't smoked it, but have enjoyed the crap out of growing it...Not to mention different people get different results...

but as for your actual question haven't ever tried anything from cali connection...any seed that grows cannabis I like though...I have had a favorite plant go hermie on me...oops...oh well..at least I have this not hermie clone...lol. and did you know that even though I took that clone from a plant that later turned hermie it does NOT mean that the clone will hermie too...given you fix whatever made the first one do it...Some clones of hermies don't hermie with no change...so I stand by the simple fact that cannabis is awesome! Will this seed grow cannabis? If the answer is yes then I say try a few...why not?

Hmm well that explains why 3 out of 4, of my chem4 og plants look like they're starting to develop sacs a week after the flip. It sure does suck to spend so much time growing them out, taking clones etc, only to have them hermie during the home stretch.

GL with yours. I don't see why you wouldn't try them, unless you're pressed for space. It's easy to spot the hermies early if you look your plants over each night.

I have 4 other plants that are ready to move in to the flower room to take the place of all 4 of the chem4 og's just in case they all hermi.. that way I don't have 1/3 of my room empty. I try to do that every time I grow plants that were started from seed, I have some back up plants to take their place if they hermie.

I guess the only reason I'm not pissed I blew that $ on bad seeds is because I have some Leia OG and Candy drop waiting to crack and this just means I'll have room for those sooner :) Weather it's cali connection or fem seeds in general, I am done with feminized seeds. Hell, you have to watch for hermies anyway, how hard could it be to watch for males... should be easier.
Just because a plant in flower hermies it doesn' t mean a clone of the plant will, or that there is even anything wrong with it...

My Blackwater was great. My Pre98 bubba kush is awesome. For the record the cali connection gear smokes dank.
