So u said he could of selfed them and kept them by their pure names so tell me what are they? Give me the tea of the BS genetics by Cali Connection. I like how they ignore me on instagram as if it makes the issue go away. Proves they do not care. Had he reached out to me saying “hey look your an executive master engineer and your analysis means a lot to us here’s what we got going on and we apologize that our genetics aren’t where we want but what do you think we can improve on and in exchange we will make changes based on your analysis if you agree to stop bashing us on instagram and instead message us direct and we will do our best to make it right, given all the time and energy I put into there strains. I thought it was something I was doing then found out F no they just have trash genetics. The Pre 98 and Purple Chem is Hot Garbage. It was so garbage I sold 1-1/2 lbs of it for $400 just to get that shit out my house. I told them their strains are trash and to stop crossing everything using Pre 98 Bubba, that Bubba is garbage. Infact, I said stop creating new strains in its entirety, instead focus on fixing your current strains. The current strains are weak, herm a lot especially the Purple Diesel, she herms 30-50% of the feminized lineage therefore I know the parents are passing down hermaphroditism tendencies and the Cali Connection is so garbage they didn’t even stress test their Lineage for breeding otherwise they would of found the mothers who are not sexually stable.
I will try and explain more for you. First off, it seems to me like you're new at strain shopping, or I would say, it seems like you aren't aware of the beginning of the OG Kush craze. I remember back in 2012, toward the end of the craze, there were many OG Kush strains floating around. SFV, Tahoe, Alien, King Louis, Diamond OG, Face Off OG, Abusive OG, Ghost OG, Godfather OG, True OG, The Planet OGs, The Star Wars OGS, etc. I would pick them up as clones at various dispensaries all over the south west counties of California. Some of them were likely passed around for some time, and i think some of them were mixes themselves of the origional OG Clones, etc. Skywalker OG was supposedly SFV X Skywalker from DP, just an example.
Cali Connection made a business out of the craze. He must have purchased or traded for a lot of the same OG clones. Along with Green Crack, Granddaddy Purple, Headband, OG LA Affie and who knows what else. He was one of the first selling those strains in seed form. But he didn't do it right.
When I said they should self it, this means stress a female into a hermy, so it pollinates itself, and the progeny seeds will be copies of the mother. They didnt do that. They didn't even back cross them. This is when you pollinate a female (in this case SFV OG Kush) with a male of another kind (because you only have the female clone) so lets say The Purps.. Now you have seeds that are 1/2 of each parent. Then you take the seeds, grow plants, look for another male and cross it back to the original mother. The longer you do this, the more the seeds will show the mother's traits.
I usually stay away from bx's. Purity is great, would rather have FEM seed copies of a clone only parent than something mixed. But again, Cali Connex didnt even do that.
They literally crossed every clone only OG Kush strain, and Green Crack, and the rest of them with some other plant and sold the offspring labeled as the mother plants. If you read their descriptions it even says that's what they did.

If you read it says it was SFV OG Kush clone X Afghani
So I guess I'm wrong - it says they are BXing it now, but who knows. I have heard so much neg about them I wouldn't buy their stuff. I think I have some freebie shit of theirs somewhere in my seed storage but I'll probably never grow them..

^^^ thats what I'm talking about!
Their King Louis OG Kush is half King Louis and half Tahoe OG. Fuckin lame... Anything original about them is gone. Pollen chucking, they are. And have been caught..
hope this helps
