Your friend is CecilC or are you saying that CecilC did not make the cross?
Creamy hashy? This is the first time I have heard anything near that. Sweet rotten mango seems to be what everyone says.
Or are you saying what everyone calls green crack is not truly green crack? I'm confused, but I know what everyone calls green crack doesn't smell creamy hashy. The fruit smell is pretty dominant.

Sounds exactly like what I have here... The branching is incredible. tangy rotten fruit smell to a tee.
Cecil c ,the guy from Ohio,no way don't even know the guy ,none of our circle knows the guy,that said we did share the clone with friends just to make sure we would keep her.the cross was done in 91-92 by Kurt .there is no purp in the parents.however I will tell you nl and skunk are involved in the first cross .it is a true 56 day hydro strain.we have no ties to Cali,but good shit spreads like plague .sorry if that isn't what you were wanting to hear

I also don't understand how a strain widely known for a fruity/mango taste is actually not what it purports to be, but OK.
If the internet story about the creation of this strain is false, can you set the record straight?
-What other strains were involved in this cross?
-Was there any real attempt to work this line, or was it just a one-time lucky/accidental cross?
-Any other interesting backstory?

Nah, that's cool. I've heard 3 different stories in the past. This makes the 4th and I appreciate you sharing it.
So you said the "first cross"... do you know of other crosses that were made and/or spread around?

This is one I had heard... I have heard another very similar with just a few changes.
Copied from a post that was copied from a post, etc...
"Green Crack was an 89 SSSC skunk#1 crossed with an unknown indica in athens ohio in about 1990. It was indeed made by cecilC. Cecil is the kind of guy who would'nt want to take credit for making it as it was just a random cross. The part about MrGreenBeans was pretty acurrate. Only mrgreenbeans was'nt living anywhere near georgia. He had people that were bringing him pounds of Green Crack aka Cush and he loved it and wanted to grow it. He kept trying to get clones from these guys and they would always say no.
Eventually for the price of $2,500 he was able to get a clone of it. Those georgia guys, mrgreenbeans and CecilC all call it Cush with a C not to be confused with Kush. I think when mrgreenbeans got the clone it was around 94.
Cecils old friends that had the Cush still he stopped talking to for reasons and was'nt in that area anymore. Another old user some of you may remember named Bunz had this plant out in southern cali that was not named but he was selling herb to snoop dog if you believe the story(but bunz was'nt one to make shit up), was selling herb to snoop dog and snoop named it green crack.
Years later, I met mrgreenbeans on a canadian IRC chat client and invited him to come chat at truestoners. He did and he and cecil kicked it off and the three of us met up and exchanged clones. At the same time or rather right before then, cecil got Bunz to send him clones of green crack and a few others and the green crack and the Cush are identicle.
Now as everyone knows I used to send out tons of clones/cuttings constantly and the green crack aka Cush was one that I sure had a big hand in spreading out. Sometimes newbies in chat bitch about me hoarding shit, but anyone who thinks that has'nt a clue. Look how many folks out there have some of my old strains now. CecilC was the same way though he was a bit paranoid about sending out and sometimes would take forever to do it, but he honestly is and was very much against hoarding, thinking that everyone should grow the best possible.
So green crack aka Cush sure got spread around a bunch. I have heard folks saying that her structure looks like old skunk#1 or super skunk, but it is not, it is what it is, just apprears very similliar, but hell let's think about it super skunk = skunk#1 x afgani, Cush/green crack = skunk#1 x indica, same basic theory of a cross. She is very fast flowering, the fastest by far that I have ever seen from the approximatly 200 strains that I have grown. She has this super sweet like sickly sweet candy fruit taste and smell. She is a good one for sure.
She is not my favorite, I find that with those types of fast sativa doms I build a fast tolerance, of course everyone else gets ripped from it. I think she is decently potent, not schrom or OG kush, but not weak by any means. Well that's the story if anyone has any questions shoot. peace"
Hope this helps settle the Q's.
Cheers

They're some truths in that story,it does have skunk looks,it does flower fast,but this fruity claim is just way off,there is nothing fruity about it ,and in the twenty years she's been alive there isn't any purpling ever,,,she has so much creamy flavor that never ends,you can imagine after that long I've ran many strains and can't get anything with that much flavor.anyone in north ga will be able to tell you fruity is not Cush.its funny though some of the shit said is kinda close.
Trust me I'm smoking the real ga Cush,the sooner you learn that atleast 50% or more are not what they're claimed to be,I love fruity bud and by what many people say he'll I want to give it a go,I'm just telling it as it is ,it's not Cush from ga,green crack is what your smoking,and it sounds good
everybody knows the cecil story and it is widely believed to be the truth. Ive been running a cut for 2 years and its definitely fruity. definitely a hybrid, it has thin sativa like leaves but if you let it get big in veg the fan leaves can be huge. very nice branching and perfect stretch. grows a little tall but not out of control and has rock hard buds that taste very fruity.

That is interesting.
Yeah, I've grown what I received as the clone only green crack and 2 s1s that I collected from that clone. I have never seen even the tiniest bit of purple from those 3 plants.
All of them, pale/light green colors. Even when I hit them with lots of N (which they love) the stay a lighter green color with flowers that also stay a light/pale green.
These days, I don't even grow the clone only (though I hold it) as the S1 I collected yields and grows better.
When I say "clone only green crack" , I am saying what I received as the clone only.

It just lacks body, imo. I feel like potency is there. Just not enough body to please what the masses want.

Ok, I just realized... you're not saying that green crack is creamy hashy... you're saying that Cush is creamy hashy and that Cush from GA is not Green Crack. I think several people here misunderstood in the same way I did.
Well damn. I'de like to try out Cush...
