well if its any consolation that strain is tied to bret bogue somehow of apothecary genetics. biggest PoS in the game if all the rumors are true. he got locked up for a while and he "Leased" the rights to some of his genetics from what I've been able to gather
heres a list of the ones that use the same pics as other companies. its been disputed whether or not he's just stealing pics or what but kaia kush for GHS is for sure one of his.
taken from ICmag.
98 Bubba Kush (Apoth) = pre98 Bubba bx2 (swerve)
Tahoe OG (Apoth) = Tahoe OG (swerve)
Louis XIII (apoth) = Jedi kush (swerve)
Lemon OG (apoth) = Lemon OG (DNA)
Skywalker OG & Regulator OG (apoth) = Julius Caesar (swerve)
Platinum OG (apoth) = deadhead og (swerve)

Sorry i havent been on lately guys ive been So Busy
Just want to Give Everbody a heads up
On September 1 2011 our collective hired Bret Bogue from Apothecary Genetics to be the head cultivator, because of his multiple Cannabis Cups and knowledge.
For the first two weeks it started off ok he worked alot and redesigned the grow. then it was time to bring in the strains he created. Kai Kush, Grape Ape, Sour Grape, Pezz, Chem Dog, Goo, Livity.
He brought in 150 clones that werent rooted and had spider mites, we tried treating them but most didnt make it.
The folowing week his farm got raided and the police took all his plants, after talking to him about it i learned he had NO SEEDS!
How do you create strains and not have seeds?
Bret said not to worry he had another farm up north in Mendo and he would get clones the following week.
Three weeks later still no clones and Bret started showing up less and less, then he didnt show up for almost 2 weeks
And kept hiring more and more helpers, The collective agreed that we didnt need his services anymore (or lack there off)
On October 1 they told Bret that his services were no longer needed
Bret wanted to get paid for all of Oct even though he was'nt going to work in Oct, he started threatining a lawsuit (He brags about suing other people)
On October 5 Bret said that if he didnt get 15000 by friday (Oct 7) he was going to call the police and warned me and the other helpers he hired to stay away from the buildings next week.
I guess im stupid! I never thought that somebody as well known as him would ever call the police
Not to mention that all he's done since 96 is work in the marijuana industry.
On October 13 i went to the buildings to do some electrical work and as i left the building i got pulled over by Los Angeles County Sheriff
They had a search warrant and raided the building took all the plants and equipment and arrested me.
I am just a handyman!
When we got to the police station the cop was asking me questions, he had a notebook and i noticed that it had questions and responses. before the responses it said CI Bret
Then as they walked me to get finger printed, i saw behind a tinted glass window a video of the grow that Bret had took
So in short BEWARE of Bret Bogue and Apothecary Genetics
I noticed his website is shut down now( probably due to lack of funds)
Ya its just blows my mind that anybody in this industry could do something like that. in my opinion that is the worst sin you can commit
And by the way way i have proff of everything Voicemails, texts, emails,(video if the police return it) etc
Pulled that one into an overflow closet w/ a couple other afterthoughts and still hope to get some worthwhile bud off the she-him. The likely problem, is that the Goji clones [2] and a robust c-99 and unknown ww were roomates of the LEMON OG.
