Dank Hands- haha, I know right? We also have strain we haven't even started flowering yet- ATF, Pre 98 Bubba, OG Kush, Jack Herer, and recently germinated a pack of Tahoe OG :) We had LA Confidential before and it was one of the dankest strains we've ever grown/smoked, we posted pictures of it within the first few pages i'm pretty sure. But the LA Confidential's we got this time are shit strains. Super weak structure and OK buds. We're hoping to fond our old LA eventually. The Lavender is super frosty and smells so amazing! I was expecting her to get a little purp to her but that hasn't happened at all. Anyways, thanks for stopping by!

I was giving a family member a big nug of Lavender once and I opened up a new ziplock and dropped it in. I noticed after I put in there that there was a fat trich trail on all the parts of the bag that the nug grazed. Only bud I have ever seen do that. so fucking frosty. Ive never seen any of em get purple that I can remember.

Granddaddypurped - My GF failed me and hasn't posted anything recently. When she gets home from work I will get her in there to take some pics of them. You can see the variations for sure already. About 4 of the 10 have their second set of true leaves. 1 still hasn't popped out of the cube we put it in and 1 other still has the seed on it but is about an inch tall. Those 2 were behind the whole time. We have a small 1 in there that isn't behind just way shorter and it already is getting some frost on it. Kinda surprised to see that. I know she has other pics she has been taken of finished buds, hanging plants etc.. so she will get those up tonight. Sorry about that its been awhile.

IDK If I already said this and don't want to read back but We have the literally bad strains we had clones of trashed. Those were Cherry Ak and La Con(Same strain somehow and garbage) Strawberry Kush(we got two different plants under that name1 was bad 1 was alright so we got rid of em all) and the Casey Jones(smells like hay and is airy as crap). They aren't cheap to grow out either so it is annoying and the reason I never go to collectives for strains. Never know what you are getting. I guess we were lucky enough that about half the Plants are at least smokeable and some are really good. Grape Krush is my fav plant of its kind that we have grown(Master Kush, Grape Ape, Querkle). It is amazing how very similar they all are. Looks wise they are pretty much identical with this Grape Krush being a bit frostier than the rest. I also enjoy the smell of the Grape Krush the most but it is very similar to Querkle. The smell is like Rotten Fruit pretty much while the others have been a sweeter smell.

Yeah I am horrible at explaining these things though. It is def a very strong indica which is cool at night but I smoke the Blueberry trainwreck and like it a lot more. The Voodu2 has the better bag appeal though for sure. My GF said she would get pics up tmw on her day off. I will see if she will explain some of the smells/taste/high etc. for these. Hopefully she is better at it than me because I won't even attempt it.

Strawberry Kush #1 & #2, Cherry Pie, and God's Gift are still drying. LA Confidential's (All 3 of them, since Cherry AK was definitely the same) are trimmed up- i'll get pictures of those later. :)

As for room updates- since it would be soo empty now, We have an Alaskan Thunderfuck and another Blueberry Trainwreck which are about 1 1/2 weeks into flowering. The ATF has pretty decent sized buds already so i'm excited with that- it's our first run through with her we got her as a clone from a pretty reliable source but you never know. We also just recently put in a Bubba Kush, Jack Herer [both of which are from the same guy as the ATF], a VOODU2 and a Cherry Pie.

I would have thought a clone coming from a dispensary would be a better plant... They would have already grown out a bunch of seeds and been able to choose the best pheno, in theory anyways. I guess that's not whats happening? or maybe they are just bad strains?

That sounds like alot of work to find out its a junker, I am glad I'm starting with kali mist, Ive never heard one bad word about her

Thedillestpickle- I don't know if it's our bad luck or just shitty collectives in our area, but we always seem to get screwed with clones. Whether it be bad genetics, two of the same labeled strain end up being different, spider mites, or gnats. Always SOMETHING. Really annoying. But we always seem to get a few keepers. AND usually when we call the collective and bitch to them, they make it good (like this time, giving us a 50$ credit towards our Tahoe OG Cali Connection 10 pack.) They don't grow from seeds though, most collectives don't- they just have vendors. They said that they thought their clone vendor was a reliable source, but that he had gotten everything mixed up and they would no longer be receiving clones from him. Kali Mist is a great strain- we had 1 seed of her which ended up being female a few runs back, SUPER frosty and gorgeous growth. Like little Christmas trees. I'll throw a few pics up for you in a bit (and reply to your pm as well)

Like my gf said most collectives have Vendors that they get their clones from. So that collective has no clue about the strain unless they grow them out themselves which most likely they will have claimed to do. You find good collectives but I have been to some from bigger cities that had good rep and had got nothing but bad strains. You really never know what you are getting and your best bet is to make or have friends that grow and pass along and get clones that way. Like the LA Con it does seem like a pheno of LA Con but maybe that is the best pheno the person got and decided to keep it for some reason. When we got that clone the guy at the collective was like "yeah this is a cut from a very reliable source from LA". That right there made me question the clone because it isn't like it is a Elite cut from LA lol. It is from a seed company and the location of the guy had nothing to do with it but a lot of collectives act like people are dumb. I am sure a lot of people that go into those places don't know much but the collective's always seem to act like they know more than any1 that goes in there which is rarely the case.

Did you buy Kali Mist seeds? That is 1 sure way of finding a legit strain unless your unlucky and somehow don't get a good pheno. The 1 seed we grew was pretty bomb and I too have heard good things about that strain. The thing is if you get a clone called Kali Mist you hope it really is Kali Mist but you never know till your done. You can go to two collectives in the same town that both have Kali Mist and there is a pretty good chance it is completely different even for elite cuts people just put popular names on clones/weed just to sell it easier. As much as I hate that fact it is the truth.
