ALIENS??

F

Fluffy Clouds

hype is hype.. it starts when somebody is impressed with something new, or something old is great again nad again.. but theres overhype too.. and overhype starts when you want to sell something quickly :biggrin:

im fan of crossing landraces with favorite cuts.. for sure... i dont say anything about quality of alien genetics outcrosses... it seems its beautiful genetics..

but let take look at another breeders with ghani landraces.. cannacopia was mentioned..

nad rare dankness has ghani ibl too, straight for Afghanistan.. but he calls it afghani ibl, not commercial title... im sure crosses with HP13, ogk ghost or willie wonder... they have some quality too.. but theres no overhype about them...

so if ya want to buy it.. no prob.. its your way, but dont come here and try to say us its the best of the best.. everything it touches goes better and so on :biggrin: just because kids are raving over the title: alien.. just beacuse you paid 150 bucks...

so there are equally quality outcrosses: landrace ghani vs. cuts... but cheaper... again your choice, and im happy for you you got something worthy for that price..

i would say that alien tech is good name for sales.. its design or proper package.. i dont see many wise men on the earth, except few: one of them being even from USA :biggrin: poet, he wrote:

"All the kids will eat it up, if it's packaged properly
Steal a sound and imitate, keep a format equally
Not an ode, just the facts, where our world is nowadays
An idea is what we lack, it doesn't matter anyways"

and it says all about overhype... :tiphat:
 
IMO aliendogF1 was a nice cross for the 60usd I paid for them... seems to make everything I put some AD pollen on fatter, frosty, and funky...

The original aliendog got put out for 80 bones. The alienkush f2 for 80 or 90 bones.
Also the alien tech is not dominate unlike the deep chunk crosses put out by cannacopia.
I grew their krush and genius crosses with no expressions of either, just dominated by deep chunk.
I still hold a pack and half of alien kush f2 along with superskunk and purple urkle crossed to alien kush.
Maybe if people are interested I could make f3's of the alien kush for the server fund or freebies. Or incross the superskunk or ukle crosses for the same purpose.
One other note, for those of us who dont have access to world famous cuts these are great.

The person who came up with the name Alien Tech isn't even selling it. How much of a clever marketing scheme could it have been? lol.

You seem to know a lot about the quality of these genetics, since you're comparing them so definitively with other afghani crosses. I'm sure you must have grown out a few alien crosses and are speaking from experience, right?

(sits back an watches the show lol)
I just wanna say one thing ..I hate poly-poly-poly hybrids ..not saying they can't produce great buds ..but c'mon :( ..I'd rather spend my money on what I kno is quality ..there's a few breeders selling the exact same alien crosses but with males than some "unknown" afghani father ..for example karma sells "biker" Kush for half the price of some alien gear ..if u have the money and like alien gear knock yourself out ..but it's hard for some like me to say im gonna take $100< and get something I kno nothing about ..I rather spend less money on certified dank like karma for example ..

I have Karma's Happy Brother BX2 going right now, as well as his White OG V2. The alien gear is better than either so far.

I was persuaded into ordering some HB from a friend who said it would be so unique and dank. It has turned out to be rather boring. Even my friend is disappointed. Slight citrusy spicy thing going on. Very ordinary imo and it's about 8 weeks in so I'm not expecting anything more from it. The White OG's are only about 4 weeks in so we'll see. But the alien gear is nicer in every way.

Here's the problem I have with some people. You have these ideas in your head about what is better or worse than said genetics, yet you have not grown any out. You say karma's is certified dank. In my experience, because I'm actually growing both of them out, I can tell you that is not true.

Not that Karma doesn't have great gear, I just have experience with those 2 creations of his, but I have yet to see the superior certified dank. If the White OG turns out superb and better than the alien gear, I'll be sure to chime in and say so. So far, that does not appear to be the case.

I can agree with u on not growing it out side by side to compare ..and I'm sorry to hear that ur karma stuff isn't up to par with "alien" ..but ur comparing apples to oranges ..a poly hybrid to a bx ? ..And everyone knos the white lacks flavor and smell ..but is super frosty ..Why not compare his OGK crosses ? ..Alien gear is "elite clone x ____" ..with crosses like that when was the real work done ? ..who gets credi if I take my super dank clone and hit it to ur "afghani" male ..?
I can say this for a fact ! ..breeders like karma will still be around after the "alien craze" phases out ..every year there's a new "craze" and people. Cashing in ..2yra ago it was c99..the the "white" Etc..now we're seeing a big ""OGK" seed influx and "alien" gear ..I personally I try nt to get caught up in the "craze" ..alien might have some nice gear but I'll pass

lol scrappy you silly puppy.. you dont get it.. i wasnt talking about guy who came up with name... but about guy who is selling alien crosses, marketing is not just name... but i will not explain you things you dont simply see.. and yeah i was talking about current offering of alein genetics:ying:

if i would grow every overhyped seed.. my garden would be full of gear for kids.. i was just saying the same as growhi, its F1 or simple outcross of cuts and landrace afghani, rest is overhype.. so yeah comparing them, they are cuts x ghani... you say its better..
even new offerings are something like cut/F1.. i would ask you how many pure ghani lines did you grow? to assure myself you know what you are talkin about...in proper way if ya want to say its better than other ghani lines... im sure you grew alien tech itself :biggrin: and those other lines... and you know how it combines with other genetics and so on.. :tumbleweed:

lol do you know logic? i dont say its better.. its you.. so you have to prove it.. not me.. but prove it with overhyping? i cant prove that its not better, cause i would prove that "not" which means negation, nonexistence.. do you get it?

i dont know what the hell is certified dank?!? jesus.. kid.. but Karma genetics is proven, as well as dj Short genetics. by reputable growers here.. why do you think people are testers and make reports... ah i see you dont read it.. you have to experience it yourself.. ok but you have to grow much more beans.. until that your "experience" is very subjective and only particular... you overhype your experience :biggrin:

lol certified dank:laughing: are you adult?
 
i dont know shit about alien but i heard about og raskel
so i got "white fire alien" and" Fire Alien kush" as they were the only raskel crosses i could find each were i think $135 for 11 seeds
all were good but i decided on the "white fire alien" as a keeper
it was frosty REALLY Frosty

Yo scrap there is no point in this for real hommie if they dnt want them fine its their loss alien's gear is super dank and until these doubters spend the bread and grow them out all they will have is their theories on what alien genetics is all about. Alien genetics is totally different than the poo swerve puts out why because alien is 10 times the breeder swerve is breeding comes down to your male and female selections and alien know his gear and knows what to look for plus he has ben doing this for a long time only resonantly has he decide to share is gear with the masses. So dnt sweat it scrap you can lead a horse to water and what not you know. But he i like it the less people want the gear the easier it is for me to get.

Yo Fluffy Clouds... whatever bro. Take your pathetic argument elsewhere. Learn to read and write proper english and then maybe you can talk to me.

lol certified dank:laughing: are you adult?
You can start by reading the post directly above where I said that. Then you might begin to start having a clue.

For everyone else interested, the only thing I'm going to judge by is what I get in my own garden and grow personally. Nice grow/smoke reports and pictures mean very little to me. Lots of people are easily pleased and lots of plants are photogenic but don't smoke so well.

My experience with alien crosses has been very good so far. I don't care about the breeder and don't give a fuck where they come from. All I care about is having nice plants in my garden. When I find something I think is good I'm going to say so. I don't care who has a problem with the homie who made them that's your issue. I don't have a moral position on hype and costs and whatnot. That's just business as far as I'm concerned. I got some nice plants. That's all I have to say.

Sure bro I feel ya. To each their own. The only reason I jumped on Karma is because you basically said it's guaranteed to be dank (or that's how I took it anyway) and from my experience that is absolutely not true. But I smoked some ghostrider OG that was great. The man has some great skill as a breeder I'm sure. My point was it's not guaranteed just because it's from so and so.

As far as your question when was the real work done, compared to creating an ibl you're right it's no comparison. But I'm sure some work went into creating the male being used. I don't think it was just luck or some random choice for a father. To me selection skills are where it's at. 2 people can have the same genetics but one has a better eye and palate for selection. He appears to have that.

But in the end I really don't care about the details or work or ethics of the breeder. I care about the plants. Look at Raskal. I don't know a whole lot about him, except from what I've heard lots of people seem to think he's a prick, but apparently he makes some real nice plants. So I went ahead and picked up 4 different strains from his last drop. Hopefully his gear lives up to the hype hehe. I just want nice plants that's all I care about.
