I'll take Rusty's word over yours. Either way it blows that fake ass sfv from dark heart away.
You’ll take rustys word over a pic of nspectas cut? So I’m assuming you think csi uses a fake cut of tk? It’s ok bro, your cut looks good, but not a bit like og....sorry.

btw I intentionally used CSIs cut in that post instead of mine because I figured you come up with some new excuse or say that I don’t know what tk looks like, lol.

Something ive realized is that flowering pics arent aways the best way to judge if you have a legit cut.

environment and many other factors play into how the plant buds and looks.

im sure some ppl that have soent yrs w a cut can tell but seems pretty unreliable to just go by flower pics.
only way to really know is genetic testing and that of cours is assuming that phylos or whoever you use for testing has the correct info in their database for the cut in question

You're so correct, environment can change phenotype dramatically.

Even my new room with different lighting calls for different feed and changed the look of the same cuts I have grown for years and they are almost unrecognizable in pics alone.

But whats true is that a good cut is a good cut regardless. I remember hunting these og's about 6 or so years ago and the difference between a real and fake is very evident. The ghost, SFV, and TK are crazy similar. But they all have that smell and taste with a high that was very enjoyable compared to the few fakes i recieved. A blind man, could pick these out of a jar on smell alone. Not the difference between them, but the difference between real OG and a hybrid or fake anyway.

Heres a good example. Purple punch cut under led/cmh vs hps/cmh. Cuts are from the same mom these are 3 days apart 12/12. Leds were started the 3rd of dec, hps was the 6th.

I'm really liking the LED/CMH combo. And great example of pheno expression. Many would argue they are two totally different plants,
I like both combos for different reasons. And I would probably be one of those people if I didn’t take the cuts and grow them myself. It’s kind of crazy how much spectrum can affect the way a plant expresses its genes, this is the first time I’ve had a sort of side by side comparison like this.

same light intensity over both(900-1100umole) and medium/nutrients, so the only difference is light source type and spectrum.

looks like this black triangle definitely leans towards the TK mom. Very cool, enjoy seeing the pics of the cuts used to make all these modern crosses and how the offspring look in comparison.
if You find a good plant in a bt pack, they seem to lean to tk. In the couple packs I’ve run 9/11 have been total crap. 2 looked great, but one of those had 0 smell or taste and was bland. I got one marshmallow fuel that was good.

Oh yeah. The TK I sourced was a dud. Looked like TK but was pretty much terpless :(
I guess that could be grower error but I'm still not convinced it was authentic.
Im sorry, the TK is a terp monster. Even a bad grow should be stank. You win some and lose some, I've lost more than I have won, but persistence pays off eventually.

I went underground for a couple years. Still pumping shit out, but the OG's were not hot here anymore. They weren't yielding like some of the other strains and the price per ounce/pound were not even close to what they used to be, I couldn't keep up.... You couldn't fathom the years of networking and how much I paid for a couple of these cuts. About a year or so ago I tossed just about every cut I had and regret not passing them off. The hype, supply, and demand are not here in michigan but they truly are something special. Great pics and knowledge shared here by all. I'm glad to see this thread still alive and kicking 6 years later.

I tried to edit that post and deleted it, but yeah, after smoking the real TK, I knew there was no way what I'd been given was the real deal.
The growth characteristics were present but it was so bland.

I understand why you let your cuts go but its too bad you didnt hand them off to reliable gromies so you could recover your originals.

The OG aren't the best yielders, and market demand dictates direction but I'd still like to see some of the older ones make a solid comeback. They might not be as photogenic but they smash todays purple hybrids in potency.
And don't get me wrong, I do love the Cookies, Sherbets, Gelatos, Grape and Cherry pie cuts. They make incredible extracts but for flowers, its the OGs I seek.

Hopefully this thread will keep going for many more yrs to come.

I agree on just about everything you said and I even felt the same way about the new hype, never really giving them much a chance, but I have to say after growing and smoking the product some of these, cooks, sherbs, pies, zkittlez, runts, and breaths are down right fire. And some of the crosses I recently got a hold of are out producing, more potent, and pack just as much flavor and aroma as the og's with even more bag appeal. Honestly, I am moving forward with no regrets. That doesn't take away my love for OG, but man, some of this new shit isn't just hype. They are truth.
