ChemDawg, OG Kush, Triangle Kush, Kush Mints

Well-Known Member
After growing 40+ strains from multiple breeders over the past 4 to 5 years, I've only really enjoyed strains with genetics that include some combo of ChemDawg, OG Kush, (which includes ChemDawg), Kush Mints, and/or Triangle Kush in hybrids that don't include so many other strains that they drown out the influence of these four.

If I'm wrong, what am I missing?

If you line up all 40+ strains, some deliver effects that I can only describe as a "flat" high, others are "noisy," or, worse, effects that make me ask "where are my keys"? If, for example, the high is flat, more or less THC isn't going to change that -- more THC would amp it up but, overall, the effects are flat.

I enjoy and continue to search for strains that deliver a clear up or down high (maybe even spaced out if indica-dominant, but not couch-lock).

And I realize 40+ strains is still a relatively small sample, but I'm not throwing away as much money on seeds of strains that don't deliver.

Been growing indoors 10 years and my experiences are similar. A good kush or a good chem are hard to beat. Have grown like 50 plus strains and Tahoe og, chemdawg variations and lvtk were the most memorable in terms of quality, potency and effects. I'd say try to find you some keeper males and females of that lineage and maybe make your own seeds. Cheers.

Thanks. Yeah, looks like a future diy project. Closest thing to a strain that combines all four (that I could find online) appears to be only available as flower ... in Canada (no seeds): Snowtorious 9.1.K (Kush Mints x Chem Dawg x OG Captain Krypt).

I've found that the most important thing in searching for quality genetics is in choosing the breeder. Freeborn, Crickets and Cicadas, Rebel Grown all have decades of breeding and growing experience. They aren't doing pollen chucks to make a quick buck on the latest craze. Double OG Chem from Rebel Grown has won multiple Emerald Cups for a reason!
 
I forgot ... a sample seed I recently received also has 3 out of the 4 strains and not the same 3.

Prince Pluto by Always Be Flowering is TK91 (ChemDawg X Triangle Kush & backcrossed with one of those two) x Z Cube (OG Kush x Zkittles).

Might be decent.

And Gas Mint by Grateful Seeds has all 4! I'm running it for the second or third time -- new seeds, winter was rough in greenhouse. Definitely discerning preferences with genetics.

Gas Mint is Gushmints x 26mm.
I liked it a lot, particularly the 8-week flowering time. Its effects are very close to Gorilla Cookies by Elev8, which takes 10 weeks.
