The Infamous Irene Kush...straight outta' the Dirty South!!!

yes. exactly.
That's a nice healthy plant you got there MP, but it looks nothing like the Irene cut I received. The one I have is short and grows like Bubba with big BK leaves with buds that grow out of each major petiole. I have never seen that on an herb plant before.
It seems like if a grower was really on it that trait could be capitalized on by growing it as if it were broccoli and have a nice tight full head of flower buds.
Real nice to have a great new Kush flav with some real dreamy medicinal punch.

I'd throw in some menthol or wintergreen or something that coats your mouth after the exhale.

Grow it organically in cool temps and the buds looks like emerald stones on a mj plant. A beautiful sight to see. The yield isnt that awful as other ogs either, Im so amazed that I was there when this cut was passed to certain individuals, I would have vetoed it if I could do it over again, but Im no hater, let the world love this plant its truly amazing. Take it 75 days (if you dare), and she becomes a completely new beast.
i hope to try her someday
saw some irene this weekend from archive seeds....nice lookin nugs!

Thanks to all y'all for checking in as well...I'll dig up some more info & pics on her as I have time...hopefully some other folks in the know will wander through here and post up some juicy tid bits on Irene (RUDEBOI...where is you man?).[/QUOTE]
Well White Trash Redneck, I see why you're confused or need further clarification!!!LOL This is going to be a lengthy post so please bare with me. I got introduced to the "Old Man" back in '97. The Old Man is somewhat of a Hollywood legend, a true ole school Pot Star of the highest order. He introduced me to his young protege shortly after, the homie Kodiak. Kodiak is the dude that grew up with Kush Ken AKA Orgnkid. That is how I got personally introduced to Orgnkid and got my first real Kush genetics. Kodiak has/had numerous resources and although I really enjoyed the work I was getting from Kid thru him, it was hard for Kid to keep up with the demand. Because of that Kodiak started offering me packs from various sources. 2 strains that he was sending/bringing became INSTANT CLASSICS. After much debate about which was which we narrowed it down to 2 O.G. Kushes that came from a Hollywood grower named Larry. When Kodi and I used to reference them we would say "Larry's O.G." and later we began to refer to it simply as "The Larry". At that time we would still have a bit of confusion because in fact 2 of Larry's O.G. Kushes were being asked for, and he never quite knew which one I was referring to without me having to elaborate!Haha Well the confusion didn't last long because one of the main custies of both of Larry's O.G.'s began to ask for the "emerald green lookin' O.G.". (God Bless the dead R.I.P. Timmy D) I went to go serve Timmy D. and when I got there I pulled out a Lbow of each because I wasn't exactly sure which one of Larry's O.G.'s he was talkin' bout!!! I popped open both of them and soon as his nose hit it he said, "There she goes good night Irene"!!LOL He then began to tell me that when people smoke too much of her its lights out, good night Irene. Plus that was his grandmothers middle name. Anywho ever since that day I referred to one of Larry's O.G. Kushes as "The Larry" and the other as "Irene" Timmy D was a well known dude in the "A" and sponsored a smokeout/picnic/BBQ every year called "DRO DAY" All those "in the know" would gather and smoke the best topshelf we had, listen to music, gawk at big booty Ga. Peaches, and parade around Old School Chevy's! Those were the days. As I digress, Anyways after some time and coaxing Kodiak was able to convince grower Larry that I wasn't a threat to him since I lived on the other side of the country and that I could be trusted to have cuts of Larry/Irene. I got both of them but somehow fucked up and only got to run Irene 1X before I lost her!(I know sux right). I asked Kodi to get me another Irene cut from Larry but that seemed like mission impossible or atleast improbable. Fast forward a year or 2. My buddy from the Bronx,(BX Borough Stand Up) that was living in ATL calls me to his crib and has like 6-7 Lbows of O.G. Kush that is seeded like crazy!!!!! He hands me a bag and says help me start taking these beans out because I'm gonna give all this shit back because its gonna be a pain in the ass to move. So I helped him take out as many beans as we could without destroying the work. To put it simply we probably had 150+ beans. He offered me some but after smoking the buds and not being impressed I was like nah, I've got plenty of "good genetics"!LOL You know verified shit from Orgnkid, plus cuts from Larry, Etc. Etc... Well he gives about 14 seeds to another homie from the Bronx, Nasty. Well as fate would have it, maybe 3 or 4 weeks after getting these beans my boy got raided. He lost all of the beans as well as a shit load of Moms I had just dropped off to him. Anywho, Nas pops those beans and outta it he had several pheno's. One was the "Irene" that is featured in this thread. One other was good with a slightly more indica look. And lastly was by far my favorite, "The Rock" pheno. It was a straight up Uber dank Indica O.G. that was STOOPID potent. I'm not exaggerating when I say it was probably 1 and a half times as strong as this pheno! And like most all great things, "ONLY THE GOOD DIE YOUNG"!!!!LOL It got lost in the mix. I can't tell you how many times I asked Nas for "The Rock" but somehow some way he would give me a different pheno but not the one I so very much desired! We had a lil click of us that hung out real tight some years ago. Smokedherbz is one of the guys, he's a helluva grower and we worked on plenty of projects together in years past. He was one of the Original holders of the Irene. Myself, SmokeDherbz and his partner, Nas all of us proudly come from Jamaican stock and all were a major part of Irene becoming a household name in ATL. When I started to evaluate the bagseed from Nas I realized that it closely resembled "Larry's Irene". Not exactly the same but close enough that it could be flown under the same banner. We began to call this cut "Rene"(pronounced REEN" most people assumed we were abreviating Irene. Because the $$$ was so good for Irene we saw no point in differentiating it from Rene. Like usual after I confirmed that I really liked the cut I sent it out to S4v for safe keeping(I like having my fave's backed up far away!!LOL) I also sent S a one of a kind Larry/PK male but we're not gonna get into that!!Haha And from S4v that's how Dusty got it to give to you I.G.T. Comprende? Sorry for being so long winded but hopefully it can be completely put to rest.

You're absolutely right, with so many different O.G.'s more than just a name should be known!

You got any info on the real ghost RUDEBOI?
Sorry MJ5050, But nah, don't really have much to offer in terms of relevant/significant info bout the Ghost! I vaguely remember askin' Orgnkid about it a looooooong time ago and he was pretty dismissive about it. Kinda like some dude was buggin' him to sell him a authentic O.G. Kush cut(back when it was really really hard to get a real deal O.G. Kush clone) and he gave him that so he could stop being harrassed!!!LOL Anyways, I plan to go out to L.A. in the near future(soon as I feel comfortable with my parole situ) and have my buddy Kodi hook it up so I can go out to Kid's house and pick his brain! Haha As well as get some of those dank ass Banana Kush Banana Nut Muffins his girl makes. Those F'N Muffins are legendary, tasted great and got ya high as phuck!!! Hopefully I'll remember to ask him for further insight into the make up of the Ghost. If I get any more info. I'll make sure to share it wit' cha and the rest of the O.G. Kush Headz.....
makeup is S1 of OG Kush
he hit it with CS and then we get 100 different things called OG kush
OG K = Oregon Kid
wish folks would just come out and say it and quit the guessing game, basiclaly every cut came after his, and CS was involved
saw some Earthshaker OG the other day that looked phenomenal, it appears to yield, and look/smell amazing
Hey what's up DIDM? I have read on old posts from OverGrow and elsewhere that the Ghost O.G. was a S1 as well. But, I was trying to keep my comments based on my own personal real world convo's and recollections. The problem with most of the "CannaHistory" that is prevalent is the fact that it is mostly based on "factoids". I rather say nothing than repeat what someone else has proposed and lend credence that it is a fact when I actually don't know. As far as OrgnKid = OGK, thats a bit of a double entendre!!! I know for a fact that OrgnKid was actually born in Oregon!!!Haha And I agree with you to a certain degree, most folks online will not give Orgnkid his just due! He singlehandedly gave real Cali Kush to a broad sector of the world!!! Thats no small feat and is something that I believe should be celebrated and revered. I won't go as far as to say all of the O.G.'s came from him but, I will definitely say that he was the pioneer of the online O.G./Cali Kush movement. While he was online I guess he rubbed some folks the wrong way, and vice versa to the point that he decided to leave it alone but, I think that was definitely to the detriment of the Online community. A guy like that is invaluable as a resource and should be a online living legend, what a shame. But that's the way of the world. You can look out for somebody, hook them up with "game changing genetics" that they would never be able to obtain and soon as they get a chance they will treat you like a dog!!! Soon as they get some top notch trade bait from you that they can use to further their cause, they forget all about how they got in that position and swear that they're THA SHIT!! Haha Sorry for the mini-rant but I felt compelled. Orgnkid not only brought the world O.G. Kush but he also brought Bubba Kush, Sour Kush, and Banana Kush. All of these were extremely important to the community. Sour Kush showed how great a marriage Sour Diesel and Kush strains made. As well as showed the world how they have to be related. The Banana Kush cross was important because it showed that O.G. could be crossed and maintain O.G. Kush traits while assuming the positives of another strain. That Sag 60/40 was straight up Banana Yoohoo!! And in those Bubba S1's he made were certain pheno's IMO/IME that were better than the actual Bubba Kush clone!!!! And I know this for a fact because I got the BK cut from Kid but have seen S1's that were better than it. I used to talk to Kailua Kid(God Bless the dead, R.I.P.) alot on the phone. He tried to convince me that he knew the actual guy that created the Original Original Gangsta Kush!LOL He told me that the guy still had the "lemon thai" and crossed it with the "West Coast DOG" yada yada that created O.G. Kush. I used to say to K.K. then tell him to make it again!! LOL
