Anyone have experience of chemdog from greenhouse seeds

[Vindicated]

I've grown a lot of Green House Seed Co's stock over the years. I love their mix packs and the way they do their packaging. The videos are pretty cool too and their Strain Hunter's community forum has some very talented growers. I wouldn't call their stock the best by any means, but they are definitely a safe pick and most of their stuff will easily produce top grade bud in the right hands.

The only problem I see with them is how they get their seeds. They find farmers in third world countries, give them hundreds of seeds, the farmers plant them and let mother nature do the rest. Better breeders tend to focus more time culling and breeding particular pheno types, making for a more uniform stock. But nature does a pretty good job too. You just need lots of land and lots of separate farms around the globe which GHSC seems to have.

Has anyone tried Tom Hill? I see his name on Seedbay and heard some good reviews on a few other forums, but haven't seen much chatter from RIU members.

all i know is reserva privida's chemdawg is og kush x sour diesel cross just like ghs's chemdog.



yeah, reserva privida calls it headband and sour kush even though its genetics are similar to ghs chemdog.

Apotacanary give Arjan seed stock and rights to his creation.

Reserva sell a diffrent one to that. Apotcanary coppied names and made strains IE Bubba kush (bubblegum X Kush) but its not.
In english Apotcanary did not have the original clone. They coppied buy getting their OGk and hitting it with his SD hybrid.


I did GHS Bubba Kush and got straight males.. Im not a fan of them because of the bad techniques and disinfo sales .
His widow is crap to Indica, if anyone likes GHS Im guessing they aint tried originals or can not be assed to research

I have grown from GHS : Cheese, Super Lemon hz, Super Silver hz, Exodus cheese, Green-o-matic= really shitty genetics, does not worth the time the space and your money to invest there.
GHS is a good company for beginners (and ignorants) or for people who just want to have a glimpse in cannabis and maybe buy some pretty colourful seeds or t-shirts and jockey hats with cannabis related themes. Also their videos at their site (Strain hunters) are quite interesting and Ofcourse a very good marketing way to attract you to buy those seeds.
But, no way, the GHS is not for the serious grower.
Sorry, no hard feelings..

horrible strain.go with a different breeder. i grew it out and hated it.worst taste imaginable and the scent just as horrible.worst strain ever! waste of money, mine came out like low grade mersh maybe even worse.it wasn't the conditions either because i grew some fire during the same cycle.the only other strain that's as bad as the chem dog is greenhouse seeds super silver haze which side by side grew identical to chem dog making me think green house may have messed up when packaging and gave me the same strain in both 5 packs of seeds and it wasn't the seed bank the packages were both sealed and i didn't mixed them up because i only grew one of each at a time. the scent, taste and even the way it grew was the same looked like clone a of the same strain.

Apothecary did not have the real chem91 that's a fact so therefore a lot of ghs seeds from him were not real deal but I did grow some fire from them. The slh was damn good but this was stock about 3-4 years ago I don't know how they are now.

You had a bad batch or can't grow very well. Man I went ten for ten on these and they were skunky awesome nugs. Very little difference in plants so I wasn't really weeding out to find the best seed to clone off of either. I see lots of trash talk but I'll save some time and say mine were awesome and you were unlucky. Thanks wyteberrywidow for at least acknowledging that GHS has some fire seeds in their bank. Waste of time and money, not in the least. SKUNKY!!!! Now the marketing and things are all kinda just to get people to buy, I mean would you want that? It's def. not an 8 week strain but almost all of you should know that 8 weeks is just absurd for pretty much all kinds of weed to mature. Enough said, go find some facts online and trash talk. I only speak from experience. Weeding through trash talk online makes it hard to even figure out what to get sometimes. Good lord. On that note, I would like to plug the Nebula from paradise. I didn't think it would be good but very happy

hows the taste? same as the smell?

I have talked to a few people who grew the strain and they said they all found keepers. I like that GHS made this into seed form because the only other option were to purchase headband from reserva privada for 17 bucks a seed verses GHS genetics of the same type and thats 8 bucks a seed.

Dude, awesome skunky smell and taste. Not 8 week bud, more like 11 or 12 but really does match all of the sour d like bud I see floating around town. Grabbed around 2oz a plant or better of prime nugs leaving the trash for hash making.

I had a bad grow with mine and they came out with the wispy look and hay smell, so, I'd have to agree that it was probably an error on your part Killer. My temps were far too high throughout the grow, so, temps have been dealt with, and things are back to normal, My friend grew out a couple of the GHS Chemdogs, that I gave him as clones, and I have to say it's a great strain. Very high yield and a taste that's true top shelf. I'd recommend this strain for sure....

lmmfao! cannabis cup....you gotta be fukin kiddin me! king of crap....although i have heard the lemon whatever is a hit or miss, i would never(and i mean never) entertain the idea of buying their crap....i hope you luck out......peace

Just started on the SLH from them because I nabbed some from a friend and it was WAY better than the Paradise "ACID" that I had. Don't get me wrong the acid has a beautiful structure and looks amazing but no real standout smell or taste. The SLH I got didn't blow me away with smell or flavor, but I haven't given it a shot yet

 

[harley420]

I'm running the chem now I have no complaints although I don't like GHs I have 8 foot sativa like chemmys with 24 g dried colas there drying as we speak I will comment back with the tatse I found a very fruity punch smell on touch

 

[harley420]

And mine where completely 20 % amber at 8 1/2 weeks

I enjoyed the chemdog that I grew last year so much so that I have another batch in flower atm.Never found a hermie yet(knock on wood!)Yes my first chemdogs hit 6',but so did everything else I used to grow(had almost 2.5mtrs of height to play with),my current chemdogs are only in 8ltr pots of coco and are a mere 4' tall.The yield from my first was 4.8oz dry per plant in 15ltr pots of coco,I'm aiming for 2 per plant but its looking more like 2.5-3 per plant!Don't get me wrong,I was very hesitant to grow these as I have had some sh33t seeds from GH seeds a few times previously,I was tempted to go with advanced seeds-Critical again instead.I did find that the GH chemdog does not clone very well,all 24 cuttings we tried to take died on us,yet cuttings from other plants were great

That's the thing with greenhouseseeds I have 3 monsters that germed out of 10 imo horrible germ rater but the 3 that survived are monsters 8 feet in hight, and out of my 3 I cloned 15 all but one live I found that they cloned very well and I used soil jiffy pellets witch some say is the hardest I find it very simple and easy always works for me, all I can say is I was very worried because of everyone bashing GHS like another posted above it is mostly 95% of the time the grower not the strain or genetics what I find is of all 3 have different looking buds all 3 are different phenos I took all the clones from the best 2 all in all you have no worries if u know what your doing with this strain I find it very good smell amazing amount of sugar coated buds great big colas took in nutes very easily and very high ppm without nute burn also can handle 85 degree temps no prob there a bit finiky with over watering so watch for that currently each of my ladies are consuming 2.5 litres of water everyday I personaly like this strain but I will not be buying GHS again because of shitty customer service and the first pack of beans I bought all 5 dies didn't even pop the shell the other pack 5 poped up and 2 died as soon as they got 4 inch tall and the remaining 3 survived I found they were EXTREMELY fragile during germ and eraly growth stages. That's my 2 cents happy trails

 

[harley420]

take a look at my avatar thats the chemdog

 

[Midwestmetal]

SLH Gold here, must have lucked out. No need anymore though, laws are changing so fast that US strains are the ONLY way to go!!!! Obama OG....... Most unique I've see so far........ just getting started.

GHS chemdog. I bought a 10 seed pack. I fucked up 4 seeds out of 10. after 3 weeks of veg. I flipped to 12/12. One lady is gaining height over my Og kush x black domina. The leaves give off a dank smell. The buds are Into 2nd week of flowering. So not much information regarding trichomes etc. the chemdog ladies I got ain't so uniform. Some plants are lanky. Some are just as they should be. But you won't have problems getting them to flower. It's actually my own fault for rooting the seeds weirdly. :8. I shall try to upload pictures if possible. All in all. Good seeds. Good plant. Give it a few weeks. I'll post up supplementary info regarding bud structure smell etc.

 

[eyeball696]

I am growing it right now. It's about a month into flowering

 

[jackblack21]

I grew GHS Chemdog and Super Lemon Haze last summer in a 2x2x5 tent. I let it veg for six weeks due to topping and fimming. Needless to say it quickly outgrew my tent with a Diamond Series 200 and Solar Flare 200. People saying all Greenhouse Seeds are crap are just spiteful. Yes bad seeds happen, but all 5 seeds I've tried from them pop with no issues. I've never had a plant hermie on me either. I was a very novice grower, as evidenced by my stupidity of growing both strains together when SLH required a longer flower time. The top of the Chemdog has some light bleaching because it grew too close to my lights and I couldn't move them any higher. I had to cut the SLH early because I need the tent to dry my Chemdog. I got 5 ounces off the Chemdog, and 2.5 ounces from SLH. Sorry about the quality of the pics. I didn't have the best camera then.

I just ordered some chemdog seeds from GHS and I hope I get some good beans. I have some trainwreck from them growing now and it looks good. Germ rate was 100% 5 out of 5 popped in R.O. water in less than 24 hours.
