1) I said there was NEVER a G-13 but only SCHWAG at the University of Mississippi. NOTE: They may grow fine product there now but it was schwag when Dalton Turner ran the show there. Ground up stems and seeds included in his product - WTF?
I was agreeing with you.
2) Kush (tasty) is from the Hindu Kush plant NOT Afghani (Gold Seal / Freedom Fighter hash but Afghanis can have somewhat of a fecal taste). There is NO Kush in Chemo (Thai x Afghani) so I speculate that there is NO Kush in the "sister plants". My Purple Kush plants are both (Purple Afghani x Hindu Kush) and are very tasty but are pure Indica and are NOT GMO.
I was talking about the Afghani "kush" type plant or what is called kush. While it might not be kush it is completely different from most Afghani's.
3) I did not say hundreds of thousands, I said hundreds OR thousands. These full grown mother plants have, reportedly, sold for $10K and the small clones have gone for $1K. You probably pay $10 for spider mite infested schwag clones and cheap wine. You gotta pay if you wanna play!
My bad if I misread it but a G for a clone is retarded.
4) Chemo was developed at the University of British Columbia by the Canadian government (Dr. David Suzuki) and NOT the U.S. government. The director of the program at U of M, at that time, was a real piece of work. Ask High Times about his paraquot testing machine. I do not think "American Beauty" would want to say that the Canadian government developed it unless they wanted to call it "Canadian Beauty" but that might cause box office issues. Hence the G-13 bullshit story...
The G13 legend was around way before American Beauty came out and who ever said G13 was the same as chemo. G13 is just a potent indica that someone hyped up but that doesn't mean it's a bad plant, just try Killer Queen or anything from Shanti with G13 in it.
,,,,,,,,,and just so you know Chemo is not in anyway related to the OG/Diesel family and deffinately not G13. While the G13 story might be bullshit there most definately is a plant that was/is known as G13 and companies like BCGA, Mr. Nice, and may others have used the actual plant that was originally called G13 in there crosses and it in no way resembles chemo, diesel, og, or whatever.
I agree that you cannot purchase seeds that will produce 50% THC content with a traditional diploid. I do believe, however, that GMO pot (tetraploids) will get you up to 35-40% range when grown well. Any believers can ask nice later and I will send pictures of the flowering and a smoke report. I will even try to get a lab report done for them as well. Who knows maybe the lab report will make me look a fool. I seriously doubt this. I will consider anything over 25% to be a success as that appears to be the generally accepted threshold level. >30% will be considered the "In Your Face" level. Sound fair?
There is no research that conclusively says creating tetraploid cannabis will produce extremely potent weed. The varieties tested in the 40's where they found 150-266% increase in thc originally only contained about 1% thc so an increase to 2-3% is not that big of a deal and does not mean there could possibly be a 50% thc tetraploid.
