Next grow will be from seed, I have a ten pack of BBBC and some Lemon Skunk seeds but I really want a nice kush. What would be better OG kush or La Confidential? And what is a nice OG kush breeder? I know there is almost fifteen spin offs.

OG Kush is a finiky lady, and has a tendancy to herm late in flowering with any stress. She's also a heavy feeder with a longer flowering period than LA Con. I just gave away an OG teen, because it's just too picky.

really? that might explain why every time I come across any OG there is always a little white seed.

OG has always been easy for me, probably cause I don't feed it shit though... never had a hermie issue either.
Best source for me was finding an outdoor grower, trimming for him and asking to keep about 100 seeds (He bred one plant indoor from the best female and best male of the 2k seeds he started with). Plant all 100 of the seeds, keep double your plant limit while they're vegging, and take a clone off of each one. Keep the best females and you got yourself some good fucking bud. If you want to get shit tons of your own seeds, breed the best male and best female and next season you won't have to go someone else to get your seeds.

edit:
The Thai in OG gives it the herm trait.
I think the Thai would give it a ruderalis (auto) trait if anything. Which it doesn't, so I don't really know what you're talking about.

If you got seeds, it's not a true OG. True OG Kush comes in clone form only.

The Lemon Thai lineage in OK Kush is Sativa, so I'm not sure you or I really know what YOU'RE talking about.

OG Kush is so overrated imo. I've grown it, and won't again. There are so many great strains to choose from. I think a lot of folks just get too caught up in the hype of OG Kush.

is LA Confidential in anyway like OG Kush? I've never had LA.
No, LA is a pure indica. It's a cross between Afghani Kush (sensi seeds) and a LA local Afghani cut. OG Kush is not a true kush due to the fact that it has sativa in it. OG is really only like 50% indica. OG will take a couple of weeks longer to flower than LA, and will give you a lower yield with more potential problems.

I'm not wrong, it's simply a matter of opinion. I've had pleanty of OG, and personally would take Jack Herer over OG any day, even if the Jack was 20% more expensive..

Alright PJ, I know you got so much cool knowledge from what you've read, but quit getting all butt hurt and providing totally false info.

Most strains that are said to be clone only simply means that the original breeder isn't selling his seeds anymore. The guy I got the OG Kush from has been growing it since the mid 90s (about 3-5 years after its creation) when it was still widely available in seed form and been breeding it with itself ever since. Every year he has at least 50 OG plants, not because he likes it, but because that shit sells. It's a fucking gold mine, why would he stop? Now, he doesn't sell his seeds, because he can make way more money off of a "clone only strain." So he keeps the seeds for himself and starts over each season, there's really nothing like growing a strain from seed, it's way better every time. Once you start growing you'll understand this.

Any strain originating in Asia will have ruderalis in it. Maybe the auto isn't dominate in all of the seeds originating from Thailand, I don't really care, but it's there. To say all bud from an entire region of the world is hermy prone is fucking moronic. Yes herm issues have to do with genetics, but do you realize exactly how much Thai stick (what I think you meant by Thai, which is ruderalis btw, and came as sensimilla back in the 60s and 70s so there were no herm genetics) there is? And how many different sub strains there are of it (phenos). Obviously you don't.



To the OP, be careful about what OG you buy. There were two different types of OG coming out of the LA region, and one is different than the other. Ocean Grown Kush is probably what you want, and it's not that easy to find. Start trimming for outdoor growers with BIG crops and new opportunities will arise for you, but not too many still grow Ocean Grown Kush. Original Gangster Kush is a different strain completely, and lots of people call it a knock off. I personally think it's almost as good if not just as good, but people are fucking picky about their OG.

Never grown OG, but dealt with alot of LA. LA confidential flowers fast, but to really maximize potential it helps to veg long. I veg approx 6-8 weeks up to 15 gallon pots. Lots of topping/training is helpful. It grows very dense, with huge leaves, and close nodes. Produces good smoke, doesn't cause bad couch lock like other pure indicas in moderate qtys. Not known for exceptional yields, but its easy to grow, so easy to maximize.
