A buddy of mine just had some really good green crack but it had quite a few seeds.. He gave em to me since he has no use for them so I put em in the dirt and all of them popped, what are the odds that this is actually "Green Crack" ive been looking it up and sooo many people are saying that you can only get the strain from clone and if it does have seeds, they wont work.
You're already proven that they WILL work.
As already mentioned, you've got two real possibilities here.
-The se-eds in these buds were created by stray pollen from ANOTHER (non-Green Crack) plant. In that case, the ceeds are "bastards" and will grow into hybrid plants Green Crack x unknown father. How good these are will depend on the quality of the father, but there are plenty of Green-crack x something else hybrids on the market now, and many of them are quite good.
They won't be "true" green crack, but the chances of these se-eds yielding good plants is still pretty good.
-Se-eds found in buds this way could be "S1" ceeds, caused by a hermaphrodite male flower that grew on a female green plant under stress. Now, S1 se-eds like this are hybrids, and they should be expected to throw off a whole bunch of phenos. A *few* of them may be like the original Green Crack clone only line, but MOST of them won't be exactly like, it, they'll just have SOME similar characteristics.
Interestingly, S1 Green Crack plants tend to go purple.
If you read about why that likely happens, and what S1 Green Crack plants can do, please read my grow report on a Sickmeds S1 Green Crack I grew, in my signature below.
Bottom line is, no the plant wasn't the same as the original, but it had the characteristic mango/fruity smell and flavor, awesome purple-colored buds, nice fast flowering time (plants were done after 50 days of 12-12), and moderate potency. Yield wasn't all that high, but I certainly didn't think growing this was a waste of my time!
