Best California Orange? Dutch Passion VS Nirvana?

[DRorganic]

Just ordered and recovered a pack of Dutch passion California orange and a pack of female seed c99 and got one seed of blueberry .I have grown out a pack of nirvana cali-o and I have never forgot it.it was when I recovered that seed smelled and tasted like fruit. When you opened a sack of this seed you swore some one peeled a tangerine or a orange.and the high was up and happy weed.i hope to ring at least one out of 4 seeds has a good representation of cali-o.

Hi men, how you're doing!

I just was surfing on the IC when I found this thread, I have the same question about "the closest seeds to original clone or to supposed true strain" due all the seedmarket is the copy of the copy, it seems the "original old school varieties" have disappeared and only exist "something like that".
Reading this thread I just confirm it.
When you say "Cali-O", what do you mean exactly?
I have smoked ¼kg of "Orange" that's how my dealer call it, though I've received recently a catalog with the same herbs that sell my dealer but it says "Orange Kush" instead of "Ornange California", the herb really was a delight, I love it, the taste is like the orange peel when the herb is fresh, some sweet with some of skunk traces, when the herb is cured aquires the taste of mature orange peels but the skunk taste gain strength though the Orange taste was always there and I don't remember if the hash taste was in the fresh herb but I perceived more in the cured herb. When I finished it, I put all the jar's kief in my pipe and I smoked it; the best taste that I've ever tried in my life, it lasted 2 hours in my mouth until I fell asleep. I've tried 4 seeds had 2 males that really smelled meters away between hash and citrus, the foliage was like the skunk foliage, and were very vigorous. Now I have 1 girl flowering outdoor, but it hardly smells anything, I hope the buds get the scent, this female is another phenotype that the males, more "sativa" pheno, more branched. And the fourth is more seemed to the female. When I test it, I'll post here my impressions. I don't know how to post pics here but when I know I post 'em.

P. D.: My english is not at all good, I hope you understand, sorry for the gramar.
-Cheers!

Greetings! Just wanted to share with you that I have recently grown two types of Cali-O. One is a BX from Norstar which is Cali-O x Tangie. That had an orange rind/skunk flavor which is really nice. I also have Cali-O S1s from CSI Humboldt which are from the AE77 cut. That is a more soft orange flavor & aroma. Both smokes are very nice. I pollinated the S1s with a male from the Cali-O BX so as to have seeds from both available. I also just purchased seeds from a cultivar called Bag Of Oranges from Useful seeds. Sounds like the deep orange rind flavor & smell is there. I will grow those this spring to find out.

Hi bro, how it's going?

It sounds interesting, I hope you can keep all the lines and your crossing be interesting too. I wonder if crossing the BX with the S1, later that result cross it with the clone, and so, could we find a closest form to the original clone but now in reg seeds?, I don't understand why the people never save the lines, particularly like that; a delight.

-Cheers, bro.

Hello Tlatoani, thanks, I agree, I hope to try and get the "original" oranges in a good seed stock. I have 4 more of the S1s and 5 of the reg BX seeds left so I can follow a few paths. I'm interested to see how the seeds from this run express themselves.

I just got the bag of oranges in and will keep that separate from the "original" seeds.

Very well N8VFarmer, you have a lot of oranges so, I hope you can to get some interesting oranges, and you can get close to the original California Orange strain.
I've recently seen a photo from a Cali Orange, I didn't know that Cali O was more sativa type. It's for that what I noticed my "orange" line isn't Cali O, maybe Orange Kush, but I don't think so, my strain have purple flowers, very purple resin flowers, the smell has to emanate barely but I can't discern it yet, I will post some little update from this line, hoping for your opinion about what strain could it be.

-Cheers & success with your oranges bro !

This is my unknown orange line, it has begun to cover of trichomes :

Agent Orange. That's orange with the peel left on. I thought it was covered in tasty puff when I first saw it. I eventually got my shit together but for 6 months it just put me straight to sleep. Nothing else ever has. It was just outstanding.

Beautiful plant Tlatoani. What is the aroma/flavor and effect of this cultivar?

Hi N8V Farmer sorry for slow to respond amigo, how are you?.

I expected the flowers to develop stronger smells to explain you but but they don't do it yet... Although the herb had orange flavor like orange peel, some skunky and some hashy (can it be said like this?) when it was fresh then when it was cured the skunk flavor intensified, and the orange peel flavor became in a rippe peel flavor very delicious, the hash flavor remained, the smell was more or less the same thing but skunky dominant, the orange smell was stronger too and together made a delicious combination, the smell and flavor were very special; my favorite hrybrid at the moment.
The effect begins euphoric, some energetic and very, very, very happy all time, when you smoke too much, the effect turns narcotic but very happy, it was potent not as much as an OG, but strong and long lasting, really great smoke amigo.
I pretend make a selection from this line, keep it and work with it for sure; I love it.

I'll upload some pics when the plant are ready, cheers!
