i did greenthumb's chemdawg #4 and it is pure fire. i don't knowabout the cali connection one but threre are rumblings that everything they are putting out these days even the new stuff is a hermie and autoflower nightmare. a few quotes;
I ran 5 out of a ten pack. All showed female and then hermied at about 14-17 days. Culled and trashed. Newer black packs from attitude

I too have invested $$$$$thousands into CC gear. I wanted to believe.
My first pack of ChemReaper, I had found a keeper, she was the quickest to finish. Her sisters, (4 other females) all had large nanners and did make the cut to be a keeper. I cut them down before they were finished because I didnt want to risk seeds on other plants I had going.
I did have 2 keepers out of the Alien V2 pack I popped, both phenos were different. The only commonality was that they were both heavy in crystal and dank.
I had 2 females from my Alien OG pack I popped, but both had large male flower pods building at week 3-4, so I angrily tore them up and UFC kicked them and ripped them in half. I had nothing to show for that pack.

8-10 of my raskal og went auto, and 2 regular males, but killed them promptly

The difference is- i can call it what it is and have the principal to call him on his lies that COST people THOUSANDS. Not to mention the damage they caused in grow rooms that were operational or to anyone on a regimen/schedule, or patients dependent on good meds, etc... and on top of that i have grit enough to say- 'no thank you, i don't want your replacements no matter how much it cost me'. its not cuz i have the money or the superior genetics.
They/we did not get what they/we paid for the first time, were called liars, greedy, and much more- why would you give the guy doing that a second chance to fuck you over and actually have hope? Guess thats my question..."

I hate the most, even more than the genetic issues, is the fact that so many CaliConnection threads were deleted or edited by Swerve, some with amazingly articulate posts, about breeding and genetics and his gear. His particular censurship ran very, very deep. Im not sure all of you guys understand or realize the true nature of his deceptions and bad dealings. TG has every right to be mad, just as I feel I have the right to throw his crap in the trash for what went down(although I have grown his stuff out before and there is dank to be found for sure) for the way I was personally treated.
