Before i pulled my chemD pheno the best girl i grew in 2 decades came from a bag seed... tried a reveg and failed
Got a single late harvest s1 though...
Chemdogs legendary beans did come from a 500$ z 20 years ago... he bought 3... that dog bud musta had some serious bag appeal.
EnglishRick, do u have any pics of ur OG s1? Here's a pic of my SFV OG s1 (AKA OG #18 or Sour OG):
Also, for anyone who's interested.......This was on another site (I'm sure some of u have read this & THESE ARE NOT MY WORDS):
"Once the 91 thread started blowing up, I spoke with a representative of the Chem Family who, in correlation with the same story I've always heard, re-stated that the origin of OG is 91 Chemdog (also known as Chem #1) back-crossed into itself. Now, I love Chem, but I have worked with every Chem cut and with real Chem seeds (according to the rules outlined by Proposition 215 and Amendment 420), and I have back-crossed the shit out of everything: Chem #1 back into #1, Chem #1 back into The Sister, back into Chem #4, back into Chem D, etc . . . I have also worked with tons of cuts of OGs both growing and producing, and although it might ruffle a few feathers here on WT, I have to say: OG IS NOT CHEM #1 BACK-CROSSED INTO ITSELF OR ANY OF THE OTHER CRAZY STORIES THAT I'VE HEARD ON THIS WEBSITE. I do believe that OG has now been crossed into Chem, which is why it can be such great medicine, but as a breeder, I cannot endorse a story that just can't be true.
What I recommend to any patient who questions the heritage of OG, is to try to find the original SFV OG cut (NOT THE SEEDS . . . THE ACTUAL, LANKY, STINKY, LOW-PRODUCING CUT). It was the first OG I worked with and it taught me the most. It stayed in my small room for a long time as other cuts came and went and when the "hoarded" cuts of Skunk came through, I knew I was close . . . those foul, stinky, I just butchered a pack of skunks with my F150 type of genetics . . . so, I took the SFV cut, Chem #1, a Skunk #1, an "MSS" (also called Skunk VA in some parts), and one of the newer, more popular OG cuts . . . and I took them all through the entire process together. The conclusion: the SFV, Skunk #1, MSS and OG cut all grew and produced similarly, though the SFV and OG produced less. The Chem #1 grew almost exactly like a Sativa phenotype. OG IS NOT CHEM . . . IT IS A PRODUCT OF AN INSANE SKUNK CROSS. The other strain is most likely one of the bomb breeder's cuts of Northern Lights or another bomb breeder's cut, since, really, OG was developed in America, probably in California or Florida, long before 1991 and held onto by a very small group of people (with no name).
This is obviously a very important matter, especially to those patients who need to know what genetics exist in their medicine. One thing I can say, is that, when we have patients, like my mother (and many other cancer survivors), who ask for that, "crazy Skunk from the 60s and 70s," I show them our top-shelf OGs, and they generally say, "That's the stuff." And when they medicate with it, they report that it's even better than "the good old days." I am an OG-Fiend, so I had to know where it came from, but I truly believe that, just like in The Search For Animal Chin, we should all just skate this amazing halfpipe together and agree that now that we have medicated with the OG, Animal Chin's spirit lives within all of us.
Have a wonderful week!

is that the DNAsour OG18 clone?,,,
WOW........... That's some straight CHOWDER right there homie....
Good Lookin' flaowas fella>>> Some bomb Chowder right there...
Blessings......
i enjoy a rather wide variety of strains and dont believe that chem, og, and ecsd are the ONLY strains on the top shelf...they certainly are on the top shelf...ECSD is prob my favorite all around smoke, got a few og cuts that the flavor just rolls everything, the chem d is straight up medicine, the kind you dont always like to smoke, but it gets the job done every time. im doing the 4 for the first time now and her structure is absolutely amazing.
...while the hype is incredibly over the top, it has mellowed over the last few years...shit, i remember when a thread like this would have been binned long before there were this many posts. i actually booted sfv out of my garden before flowering or tasting her when i had to make room just cuz i was sick of all the hype and controversy it caused online! no shit...anyways...while certainly not the be all end all of strains...believe the hype...just dont listen to all of it! you will enjoy the herb much more!
