I've been there recently as well. I liked it but they seem to attract a much younger crowd.
............. alla the older folks are here, which is nice!:biggrin:

From my perusing you are right. Younger – with lots of drama - run for profit by a guy in the Czech Republic. They have an elaborate trust system that rewards post whores, with members running near-continuous ‘server fund’ seed sales and pollen chucker seed giveaways to the worthy.

Do a search of richard hratch baghdadlian, there's a lot of interesting stuff on the history of OG and what happened.

As far as I know RC just 'disappeared', never made a statement or nuthin'.

I had a seed order in at the time but was too nervous to send payment and address details as you could just feel the bust about to happen, HS was a good company and I got a lot of seeds from them in the past, no regrets there!:biggrin:

thanks, one of the first google entries that showed up was wiki! :biglaugh:

Yes, I agree - HS was very reliable. I never had any issues. The only trouble was my impatience as it was always a pretty long wait ;)

So, just out of dumb blind curiosity, did the original C99 and super silver haze live up to the hype? :joint:

I was amazed when I joined way back when. People were doing things with stealth cabinet grows I hadn't even considered. I was like a kid in a candy store with those threads. I drifted to IC after the shutdown like many others here.

Everybody seemed to be growing C99 back then, it was really popular. Can´t remember the breeder though ?

Interestingly my first and only full grow diary on this web site back in 2006 was some C99 that Gypsy gave to me but it wasn't the original Bothers Grimm version it was the feminized version from FemaleSeeds.nl. Below is a picture of one of the nicer buds from that grow.

It doesn't really show in this picture but the thing I liked most about this C99 was the copious amounts of resin one could get dry sifting the buds.

does "C99" refer to Cinderella 99? i found a seed in a dispensary 1/8 and it grew, up about 30" now, going into the flower cab in a couple of weeks. took some cuttings that haven't sprouted roots yet, but also not dead, my usual outcome for cuttings.

Yes usually C99 means Cinderella 99 although it's always good to ask because you never know these days with so many abbreviations going around. Anyway when I say C99 I am indeed talking about Cinderella 99 which is a fairly decent hybrid that leans a bit more to the sativa side in terms of effect and it generally has decent yields for it's size. Now there is a pheno of C99 out there that has a pineapple scent/taste called the "pineapple pheno" and if you're luck enough to get that you can expect it to be even better then the regular c99 buds.
