I start mine directly in the soil.Wet soil, put seed in soil ,place under a 600wt Mh and 3 days later there sprouting up.I like this method cuz I don't have to touch the fragile seedling.

I had my Budda Tahoe OG stall but at the time I thought it was just because I didn't flush my coco properly. However, since then it has turned into a great plant. No nanners, decent yield, and looking pretty frosty 4 weeks in. For a freebie i'm happy with it.

Here's an update on the survivors!

The Deadhead on the left started out as a mutant but started growing leaves. It's Female and has a nice kushy smell! Smells the best out of the three!
The middle plant Buddah Tahoe Fem. Smells like sweet lemons and makes your mouth water.
The Right is Buddah Tahoe Fem. Smells like toxic milk weed. Has a horrible smell. Can't described the smell other than milk weed, if you know what it is.

I didn't get the replacement beans after all. I had a problem with the mail, the mail man stopped delivering my mail for a few days. I don't think they were sent because I went into the post office and all I recieved were bills.

I will never buy Cali Connection beans again! I have bought over 20 packs of beans this year from many different vendors. I have only had problems with CC beans. The CC beans had a very low germination rate and now I have the only Deadhead OG Autoflowering on a 24 hour light cycle. WOW! I have two Buddah Tahoe plants and I hope they don't hermie on me when I flower them. Before anyone says 24 hour light is bad. Read this!

"Many C3 plants, including cannabis, do not need a rest period. They continue to photosynthesize as long as they are receiving light.
The plant's photosynthetic rate determines its growth rate because the sugars are used by the plant to build tissue and for energy. Cannabis under continuous light will grow 33% faster than the same plants on an 18-6 light regime."
Ed Rosenthal-

Swerve, some of your stuff is dank but damn your beans are unstable!

I bought literally an entire fuck load of seeds this year.
I will continue running lots of CC and Rare Dankness gear.

You described exactly what happened to my buddha tahoe reg freebie.
No branching,no preflower hairs.Nothing.Put it in flowering along with 3 other different plants,and all the other plants had nice little tiny buds.The tahoe nothing.
I thought for sure it was a male by the way it grew so i kept it to do a little pollen chucking.
Awsome dark green looking plant too.Then 2 weeks after flower it started to pump out hairs everywhere.It actually caught up with my other girls like it didnt skip a beat.Cant believe how frosty these buds and leaves are at such a young age.Fuckin awsome.So far no hermie.I will keep checking.
i had something like this happen but later in growth...i have one bhudda tahoe next to 2 other strains...of the 6 plants its the only one that did this so its not conditions....basically what happened is it grew to maybe 4 inches and was normal and then when the rest took off and started branching out and all the bhudda tahoe was at like 6 inches no branches then 8 inches no branches by this time the others are about 2 feet tall and ready for flowering...so in they all went (because the tahoe was in the same large container) now 3 or so weeks into flowering the other plants have decent little buds started everywhere and little retard tahoe is still 8 inches strong with ten hairs poking out on top lol...i promised i wouldnt disregard cali connect from all the hermie hype or the shit talking so i grew out the freebie..well i got what everyone told me id get, a letdown, so at least i never expected much out of it

try repotting it lol autoflower hahahah guys its impossible.

It's not even close to being root bound! I already checked. I have a couple bigger plants in party cups not having any problems. Out of 80 plants this is the only one doing this. I'll post links of other people having autoflowering CC plants. I'm not the only one!

I just harvested some 818. It is seriously great smoke!! I was blown away. I just popped a pack of fem buddha tahoe. I don't expect any problems with the fem seeds.

I have no reason to talk shit until I have a problem. It just happens I have a problem. It seems Cali Connection has quality control issues and unreliable genetics. You said Autoflower is impossible but yet these posts proves you like to lie! THis does not even scratch the surface, I can find atleast 50 posts about your autoflower issue. LOL Telling me to repot when it's your fuck up, man up and admit your shit autoflowers!

"No, these were regular seeds that had an auto flower issue. Swerve caught a lot of shit for this. He say's that an outsourced grower had an unknown auto flower male that pollinated the crop. He's being stand up and replacing the packs with the a/f traits and adding an extra pack of Alien Vacation which is a Hawiian Sativa X Alien Kush (Alien Tech pheno'd male). I have no idea what it's going to be, but it sounds dank." http://forum.growkind.com/showthread.php?t=40936

"I remember when swerve was on icmag and I remember him always beefing with rez, then I vaguely remember a bunch of peoples gear starting to auto flower and all hell broke loose and he got the boot. Gypsy has swiped all info about swerve from the site, can't find shit about that situation but, I remember the gear and his breeding practices coming into question."

"they grew fine the first grow around 5 of 10 were female....after I cloned the bitches 3 went auto" -Colonuggs https://www.rollitup.org/seedbank-reviews/416980-what-happened-cali-connection.html

CC does have dank. That's not the problem, the problem is Swerve likes to lie when there is a problem and the second problem is you have to go through some fucked up genetics to get the dank you want. Germination issues, Hermies, autoflower, ect. Everyone knows all it takes is one pollen sac to fuck up your entire grow. If i ever use CC again, I won't buy beans but instead get CC clones, that way I can avoid the BS and let someone else go through it.

I also have two FEM Buddha Tahoe, no problems so far. It has five phenos, I have the Tahoe and Lemon pheno.

Unstable, hermaphradidic, autoflowering, random phenotypes, etc.. This is Cali Connections reputation. All you ever hear is people complaining and then someone comes in and says they pulled a gem out of like 20 seeds.

Swerve, what your doing is unethical and immoral. You should stop while your ahead...

If you got a gem out of 20 seeds from someone, that wouldnt sound like a bad deal...Unless that person was lying about the gem.

Personally the thing that actually lets me down with their beans is their organization, i mean, the hermies and autoflowers are a pain in the ass and can really fuck up your whole crop, but these are hermie prone genetics and everyone knows that.. Some say that the same ogs could be s1 of 91 chem which had already hermie genetics as it was a bagseed strain...Basically for example deadhead is an hermie prone and pretty old strain crossed with the reversed pollen of its S1 which is genetically speaking a true mess (a selfed bx) and the fact that DH og or other CC ogs hermie for me means two things: 1 they are the real deal genetics 2 it's absolutely normal to have some mutants, hermies and stounted plants from this genetic background...There cannot be any complaints about that in my opinion...if u want some killer plants with CC be prepared for hermies...

Total different problem is their management...Everyone can see when seeds are premature, and the fact that they selled some unviable seeds perfectly knowing that they were such is a very bad sign...Plus i really can't stand how is possible that i have to search the genetic lineup of their strains into the forums because every seedbank has the wrong infos...Fuck even in their shop there are some errors (Larry fem is listed as a larryxSFVibl while should be an S1)...Really not hating Swerve, he is one of the few offering everybody the possibility to grow clone only genetics that others would have kept for theirself, but he has a serius problem in the breeding and packaging stage, and after years of complaints from his customers he has to put an end to this bs once for all...
