Cali Connection Tahoe OG Feminized - wtf?

UPDATE:
I received a message from Swerve today and he has offered to send me a new pack of seeds, and some goodies. Since I've only run one pack of his seeds, I think I should give it one more shot to be fair and balanced :)

Anytime a breeder contacts you after seeing a report, you know that they are at least trying to do the right thing. That makes all the difference in my book. But yes, I will be running this next pack in it's own tent, just in case. I'll also do a report when it's finished.

---------------------- End Update -----------------------


I've never filled out a grow/smoke report without finishing a strain, but a frustrating situation compels me.

Out of 6 Tahoe OG seeds, I got 6 hermaphrodites. Full on hermies with male flowers popping up all over at 3-4 weeks into flower.

Unfortunately, they seeded my entire tent, so I culled them and decided to make a post. The frustrating part is that they seeded some kandy kush and one kosher kush.

I've had a hermie here and there with female seeds before, even with regular seeds, but I've never seen anything like the tahoe OG's! Male flowers were hiding under almost every bud and even growing straight off the stem. It's a shame because they looked damn healthy and frosty too! They smelled lemony pine and I was getting excited. What a let down!

Live and learn I guess. At least I have a few Kandy Kush and Kosher Kush's that weren't seeded because they finished right when the tahoe OG went into flower. Kosher Kush Grow/Smoke report coming this week.

This isn't intended to bash Cali Connection but simply relay my experience in case anyone else had similar results.

oh man that sucks bro. Alot of people had that problem with CCs Fem seeds.You had a so-called breeder (used loosely) trying to make some extra $$ by making fem seeds that he didn't know a damn thing about, and that's what you got, crap! I have had a couple good phenos from CC reg gear, but over all none of em' were worth the price paid. I'm running some Kosher right now as well, and know KK is great too, so they will make you happy.

That sucks dude! I had the same problem with Subcool's Apollo 13 x Vortex...and those were regular seeds, i don't understand how they could have hermied so bad on me (at first i thought they were just both male, but then in week 3 i noticed a few white hair here and there).

I grew a Tahoe OG from CC too, but mine was regular seed that turned out to be male...having said that, it was the most resinous male I've ever seen...had trichomes on leaves...i didn't know males could even have trichomes outside their flowers...made some crosses with that, hopefully the seeds will be worth growing...

Hate to hear it. I was actually really looking forwards to my tahoe freebie. I was really hoping that with the bad reputation CC already has that they would have gone above the call of duty with these freebies to ensure they were not crap. But I guess dollar signs is all that some people see and dont give a shit what product they send out the door.

I advise you to contact swerve. He says he will make it good in those threads. Ask politely and see if he stands by his word.

you see people still saying "Use hermies for breeding, you get fem seed" LOL

gutted for your time though, would you want to run a cali con strain knowing he doesnt fem he hermies???

Ask him for BIG BUDDHA fems. Atleast them guys go the chemichal root (They both work together so its possible)

How is it not considered herm when the seeds were feminized.

Funny how every1 is a pro..
Plants CANNOT flower in VEG!! Did you mean while in flower?!?!? If not then I dont know what to tell ya. Ive never heard of a plant flowering while in veg. Wierd. You probably got a male and seen the preflowers. A plant cannot go hermi in veg. It needs to be in flower or there are no budsites to hermi. STRANGERS! HA!
Im done answering questions for noobs. They dont fucking listen! They argue and fight you the whole way! Sorry, but Im done answering q's for anyone who has under 200 posts! PEACE!

LOL obviously you don't know jack because a plant will show its sex in veg. if it's mature enough. Go look it up wiseguy, I can tell from your post that you think your a know it all, but really your the real noob. I'm done with noobs that think they're master growers cause the can post junk all day long.

I've been a member longer than you, Your number of post doesn't make you a master grower.

If you knew how to read I said it was pre-flowers fuck bag!!! POST #12. Pre-Flowers is how you check the sex! Your a fucking idiot, douche! Go waste someone elses time with your stupid posts.
If you meant that your plants showed both male and female pre-flowers then its all a big misunderstanding and you should learn how to speak the english language, to write what you mean in detail, so your not confusing people or giving them the wrong ideas.

Your the dingbat that thinks you know it all. For the second time they were fem seeds showing signs of male preflowers in clusters. You are the numbnuts that is saying plants can't herm in veg. If you veg out a seedling long enough, it'll show signs of the sex without being in the flower cycle.

I think your the only dumbfuck that doesn't understand. Go fill someone else's thread with your bullshit.
