I've got an older friend who's very deep into the cannabis culture/scene, have been going to cannabis cup for the last 15 years, and seems to personally know just about everyone who's anyone in the growing business. He told me I should steer clear of sub and their gear, said they are shady and their genetics are unstable. Is he right or what? Personally i've never ran any of their stuff even though i've known about them since i started coming here back in 2011

I've run Jillybean and Cheese Quake. Jillybean was a nice plant, that smelled great .... but that was about it. No flavor, and below average potency. Cheese Quake I've had in my rotation for a while now. I really like it, and more importantly my patients like it as well.

All in all I think TGA is just average. I've grown and smoked stuff that is superior to TGA (Sannies, Bodhi, Mr Nice, Serious Seeds). He seems to have a loyal following though.

For fucks sake, thank you. TGA gets old fast. So many better genetics out there that aren't so mediocre. Use to love Pandora's Box, got old after a couple months.

Watched a recent weed nerd episode and got covered in bull shit.. I don't know if it's people from Michigan or what but I have a hard time believing Subcool doesn't just bullshit people. I know his genetics are good but their just not great in my honest opinion.

I'm glad we agree haha. :) Funny to see you posted that just before me and see how we both posted that TGA is just mediocre..

I don't know what it is about Sub, but I cannot sit through a whole video of his.

The music doesn't help, the lack of organization doesn't help, and it doesn't matter what I smoke.

they are so fucking awkward....

i feel like I'm watching that guy who just got home from rehab tell you how he's gonna get a career going. it all just seems so contrived and fake.

jorge's videos are the same way... i think these guys took acting lessons from 1980's pbs shows.

It's nice to see opinions about Subcool other than what his fanboys write. His gear is average but he's a great marketer. Personally I think everything that comes out of his mouth is an advertisement in one form or another.

I also like watching FarmerJohn420's vids. Too bad he recently hooked up with Subcool and is one of his minions now.

Thanks for letting me stop by Michigan. Imma go back to So Cal now. :)

His genetics are better than just decent. If you watch his show or any of his "minions" than you know the proof is there. Trichome production, yield and bag appeal. Most of the posts on here sound like haters anyway hanging on the 2 % of the peoples nuts whoe might have some ground to stand on.

True, true, and true. But I'm not 18 and trying to impress my buddies with a nice looking bag. I want medicine. His stuff looks nice, and smells nice, but that's it for the most part.

hey i love me a subcool winning pheno. I've ran more subcool strains than i can remember now. HE GOT HUGE in michigan when this medical thing popped off. up at the GC3 it smelled like the tropicana factory for MONTHS. everyones weed tastes like some oranges in one way or another.

a few people including myself dug out a really nice pheno of a strain or 2 and they are going strong all over.

not many people will bring his genetics into question and if they do they just are salty about the unstableness probably.


That being said.... i stand behind my statement. that video and every other subcool video I've seen is awkward as fuck. feels like a fuckin paid advertisement late at night.

and if you can't see that you mighta taken a shot in the eye 1 too many times by the submeister!

My main issue with SUbs stuff is that you can buy a pack of ten and get nothing but crap phenos. They smell good, but the taste and high are weak and not worth the cash.
Maybe some pink plushberry, but thats about it.

I've been thankful for the vids that guys like Sub and Arjan have made, as I've found them both informative, and entertaining, to watch.

I think they've helped a lot of people see the many different approaches to cannabis cultivation, and how diverse cannabis can be throughout the world. One can have personal reasons to dislike their business approach, or their seeds, but you can't take away their legitimate contributions to the cannabis community.

sometimes one can wrap up advertising in what seems like informative packaging so people feel good about spending their money with you.

I think this has been TGA's knock all along........and Sub has even mentioned it in articles........he's breeds for taste and smell first and then the high. Maybe it's changed lately, but it was exactly like that a few years ago. I don't bother with his stuff anymore.
