To a certain extent that is true.
However a true OG Kush or cross thereof is
very recognizable in look, flavor and effect.

Quote from a very trusted source:
"I love cannabis mythology. It's fun and the stories are fascinating. The whole JoBlo/Chemdawg story about OG is a great one. They are the cannabis equivalent of campfire tales.
Until we can examine genetic evidence, it's tough to say where all these strains originated. Based on chemotypes, OG is likely expressing Thai/Nepalese origins. OG could have some Af/Pak genetics in there somewhere, but it doesn't show up in its morphology. My current favorite OG story is that it's an NL/stress cross from Sylmar in the early 80's. I like the simplicity of that creation myth. The most ludicrous OG myth is that it originated in Iran in the 70's.
Affie is supposedly an early Afghan from Venice. Bubba looks considerably different, as it's much lighter in color. They are definitely not the same strain. To me, Affie smells like coffee; Bubba smells more like sandalwood.

Of course real Kush isnt just growing out in the wild, it's been selectively cultivated by the people who live there for hundreds of years.
What an incredibly narrow minded world view you have if you think western cannabis breeders could do something in 30 years that the natives of the Hindu Kush Mountains could not do in 2000 years...
LOL! I'm spreading the word about the clubs fraudulent claims. The owner really creeps me out. Im dumbfounded in how many of his customers eat his lies up and worship him. I soo wish things were more legal and the Fair practice commissions would serve him with charges.
I grew out a dozen Chitral seeds from Pakistan in the Hindu Kush Region about 10 years ago. It was some of the most amazing bud I have ever toked. The buds were light blue.

Most of the food we eat in the world today has been selectively breed in the last couple hundred of years. You didn't have beans and corn in Europe and you didn't apples in the USA. Check out this site:
http://www.pbs.org/thebotanyofdesire/
Corn that taste like sugar, rice that taste like popcorn, red apples that are sweet and pot that can be finished in a couple months.
In the third world and especially with illegal crops technology lacks the US. In Morocco, for instance, the weed they grow is openly pollinated and pretty much just ditch weed. The hash is good sometimes, but the weed sucks.

I invented the phrase "What is this 2 girls 1 cup you speak of?"
Now you're showing us what you really know. Apples never breed true. It's almost a genetic impossibility for them. I only say 'almost' because nothing is impossible. Cannabis, on the other hand, does breed true consistently for many traits. Go back and re-read the Botany of Desire instead of just referring to the PBS special on it.

So you think I should have scanned the book and cut it paste it onto the thread?
When you say breed true, you mean when you plant a seed you will always get the same thing? You seem more intelligent than to state that so I need some clarification.
I do know that weed has Always been a name game. But really bud is a crop that is good or bad, or an era thing. We had Colombian in the 70s grown by countless farmers. You had importers going to Colombia and selecting out the good from the bad to bring back. The Americans gave it names like red or gold. If you go to places that weed is grown you will see so many different kinds being offered. You may even have a hard time getting the same kind twice.
I was in Arcata and I seen several different kinds of bud that come in different looks and smells called Kush. I almost feel that Kush is another word for weed there. Hell, if it gets you high that is the bottom line. Some of the people here act like it is a religion or something. Do not blaspheme the holy kush. I even got a red mark in reputation for my opinion on it.

can you say the beginning of a "pissing contest".

we're well aware of this. this was a thread to help people steer clear of this dude that is an obvious douche and fraud. then it's just fun to jump on the band wagon. i think it's pretty obvious that these indicas came from the mountains of pakistan and afghanistan. the chem line probably started with a pure afghani or paki "kush" plant that seeds were brought back to the US from in the late 60s early 70s. by the 80s they were selected for potency, then by '91 whatever that herb was that the original chem seeds were from was probably a result of closet breeders throughout the 70s and 80s from the original paki or afghani seeds
and speaking of people taking credit for things. this is the same thing that bret bogue and his crew does out in san diego and LA. the apothecary site claims that him and his breeders are originators of Strawberry Cough, Chemdawg and Bubba Kush. last time I checked Kyle Kushman, or the dude he got the cut from in vermont isn't working for him, and neither is Chemdog. the people we know put those strains out. I know some one who personall got the cough from Kyle in detroit in '97-'98 on his way out west after he quit high times.
