Has anyone gotten any solid og phenos from the OG lines?
I get nothing but very watered down chemdog smells out of 4 packs of SFV OG x Faceoff. I got 3 phenos that looked EXACTLY like SFV and smelled like it live but when dry have a spot on sour skunk chemdog without the extreme chem or gas smell. Kind of like an ok skunk. 0 taste on any phenos and muted smells for an OG. 2/3 were females. Handed 2 lb's of this to front to someone to sell since I couldn't move it my self due to quality and they handed it back and said, "Dat shit low man. Can't do nothin with it". Someone handed me back a fuckin front...That was a first ever lol. I expected him to at least steal half of it lol /shrug. I was not even in a legal state...Just giving an honest review. The line needs work and the face off needs to be bred out to the point it DOESN'T dominate everything if you ask me...If it keeps going that direction imo the crosses will be as about sought after as Deep Chunk crosses are...I run from it and the white crosses like they are the plague...
SFV to me is the standard bearer of OG's. It is the definition of OG. This is why I bought so many packs. This has stopped me from buying anymore of the OG crosses until they are worked more unless someone can give me alternative cuts that shine through in the cross instead of being battered by the Faceoff. which I am convinced is not OG at this point and just a Chem/skunk pheno (skunk more than anything due to strength of branches).
I got solid OG's from Karma's crosses, phenos you can't tell aren't legit OG in anyway, but avoid the ones with the white in it like the plague...It ruins the taste and smell of OG like Faceoff and Deep Chunk do imo.
The dosidos lines have great phenos with taste and smell from my experience, but the Grape Ape x Dosidos turned out bad as well. 4 packs. I wanted sweet grape jelly. I got one pheno of the packs that might smell like White Grape. None have taste or good smell outside of strong cookie leaners from the lot. I blame Grape Ape completely for this as several other Dosi crosses produced great results with 2 plants I will keep around for years to come.
Does grape ape smell like wine grapes and not what most of us really want when we think Grape? Never bothered with the cut so I don't know...I know after growing those out though that I do not think it breeds well AT ALL and won't ever buy crosses of it again until someone proves me wrong with a sample....
Dosi has some great stuff in it. I commend the breeder on this one. It is ready for prime time. Faceoff has potential if the faceoff can be bred out. As of now I would not pay more than 40 bucks for these OG crosses compared to everything else I am growing from competition and would only run no more than a single pack at a time. I remember him saying he is working these lines so I will be interested again in a few more breeding steps perhaps, but this purchase decision really hurt my wallet not only price of seeds but product produced. 1-2 a pack will look stellar and 1-2 females of 15 will look exactly like SFV in structure and smell while live, but be prepared for a real let down upon jarring if you have ever smoked real deal SFV and Triangle Kush.
very interesting thoughts. but I think you got it wrong, a little. as tha docta is not using face off male, but face off BX male. he used Manic for backcrossing, and if you ever have backcrossed something, you know it doesnt stabilize anything... so I think that Manic is responsible for these bland terps.. so it would be the white, deep chunk and manic you should avoid LOL but I think these are great breeding tools, it just depends on how you use it. look at wifi from raskal, its the most popular version of ogk cross in seeds.. there is even wifi43 cut, it should be up there with best ogk cuts(I didnt grow it. so maybe I am wrong..). same with deep chunk, powerhouse from Htc was great cross. it just doesnt combine great with anything.. and that is breeder´s work to find out which combination is winner and not to cross one male with every cut you can get on your hand, right?
