CC isn't for me but I like to read the swerve soaps. I found this old picture (2009?) while surfing elsewhere.

That is because he is done defending his gear, he knows its shit and theres not much anyone can do about it. You can pop beans all day from him and sure you might get yourself a plant of fire but your also destined for some hermies and some headaches that other breeders don't give you.
Anyone can fling pollen into the air and call it heaven but he flings shit and spreads the word like its the great great... I don't trust him or anyone who works with him. Hes a thief, a knarc, a total douchebag in person, and ... worst of all... human (He is a waste of carbon and he even makes dolphins look smarter than humans)

@thecouchlock, I'm not a fan of his either, bought a couple packs, but gave them to a long time friend when I had to shut down, much better grower than me, and like you said and many others have said Hermes galore, although some of the plants that made it to the end were good, just not worth it
I was just wondering where he was because like you said he was constantly defending his strains,now he's not really around,
I guess he figures if he stops posting and arguing with everybody, he will still be able to cash in on the company name and logo, plus the ads in HT

We all get lucky sometimes 
I think your right BX, by staying out of the scene he is drawing less bad publicity and eventually most of us will "forget him" or he is hoping. I know that experience is key but there is no rhyme or reason for my hermies only coming from one company. I have sannies, tga, cc, dna, reserva privada, and even some local kids who wanted to slang seeds. I support small business as much as I can and I was rooting for swerve for the longest time but true colors always show and in the end you fool me once shame on you, fool me twice... im an idiot.
Here is the hermie list for you
Deadhead OG
Tahoe OG
SFV Og
Boss Hog
Larry OG
Blackwater
now, don't get me wrong most of this shit was fire. We didn't do them all from seed either so that could have been some of the issue. However when your growing for a collective and you have different rooms for everything and the cali connections seem to be the only one to herm out it seems that either he has bred into his lines some bad genetics or they are just sensitive. I can understand if they are sensitive because I am a sensitive person hahahahahaha
No but really... Fire and hermies don't mix, you get seeds in your dank and it just aint great.

Now.......as far as honesty and integrity, I want to support companies that display these qualities. My next seed purchase will be Rare Dankness Bubba's Trainwreck Haze and Mr. Nice The Stones. I am after a Bubba and Master with a good kick to the head. Having grown both strains before on their own, these two sound great in that you get some Haze mixed in with the awesome body effect each has.
Good Luck with your current grow......hope you find some keepers!

I am doing well friend thank you!
Right now my list is
Jack Skellington
Pennywise
True OG
KO Kush
Sannies Jack
Jackberry
Sour Diesel x Haze
Grand Ak
Tangie
C99
Blue OG
So far so good with these ladies, have a few gentlemen too that I have to unfortunately part ways with. I have changed my ways of growing entirely and have stepped back from working directly with the collective. I am most likely going to keep the pennywise and just run that if the CBD level is higher than 15, I want to give people medicine that is clean of pests, pesticides, mold, and any other bullshit chemical people put in their ladies. I am no longer big time at all and that is because the people who make it just want more money and more money and get more greedy cutting corners and using chemicals that give people cancer and other lung problems.
All I want from a seed company is some honesty, integrity, and a desire to better the world just that much more.
(also have the forum cut gsc and the 7 attitude promo seedlings going.. I think it is purple trainwreck, green crack (going to donate it), silver kush, and some others I wasn't too excited about)

Hey bro those are looking real nice, are any of them chem based?

Thanks Couch.....sorry for the slow reply, work between two IPads. I chopped her at 70 days, but, she coulda gone another week. This was the second Boss from seed, vegged both for 5 weeks, untopped, the first was finished in 56 days with 20% Amber trichs.....it grew short and single cola style, not branched out like the one pictured. My IPad camera didn't save my pics of the first.....but to sum it up, they look like two different phenos. I don't know which represents a more Chem profile, the taste of the first was hashy, with a touch of lemon head candy and og kush.....Nice! The potency was a 7-8 outta 10, taste 7-8 outta 10. This one has a stronger aroma......the whole house smells like funk......and, flowers! I have clones of each....in flower and veg....will give a detailed smoke report of her in a week or so. I do see similarities between the 818 Headband and Boss Hogg, but the 818 is a stinky fugger.....and taste/potency are both a solid 9!
What a fun hobby........some people hunt rhino's with pitchforks! Thank You, State of Michigan! Smoke report coming soon!

Dry weight on the Boss was 70g......in a 3 gallon bag, with a 5 week veg, 10 week flower. The potency at this time I would have to say is close to a 9......stronger than I thought, balanced head and body, more body. The taste is not strong, not bad, not as flavorful as I thought it would be. And........I did find some seeds inside a few buds, maybe 6 seeds so far......smoked about and oz. I did not experience a CHEM taste with this one, again, I think she leans towards the Tahoe. The 818 Headband cut I have is almost all diesel, with little Tahoe coming through, in comparison.
Yield and and potency win with this one.....both 9/10. Taste.......6.5/10
Good Growing Everyone........hope ya find some keepers!
FoUhCiKo........BEAT OHIO!

Swerve is branching out and using his master geneticist skills to bring "exclusive top-of-the-line genetics" to Colorado.
http://mmjamerica.com/the-vault-genetics-marijuana-seeds/
"When MMJ America took home a medal for Larry OG, we knew we had achieved something most growers only dream of. Out of respect, MMJ America decided to track down the master geneticist who created the strain. Swerve is a geneticist from California who is known around the world for the incredible strains and seeds he developed with The Cali Connection. Because most dispensaries buy clones without trying to improve upon the product, geneticists are rarely ever approached by dispensaries. Surprised by the astounding humility of MMJ America and the respect for his work, Swerve decided to team up with MMJ America to create The Vault Genetics, LLC."
