Cali connection

awww it doesn't load

im quite offended!!! magine if it loaded up to the CC site...hahahaha its raining fems, hallalujah its raining fems!

the big buddah tahoe og has alot of hermie problems as well. i was thinking abut it but saw a grow and decided not to try it. it was pretty bad, and the big buddah tahoe is different from cc buddah tahoe og as the new tahoe from cc uses the louis cut of the og supposedly with the tahoe but im thinking it might be the sfv male hes been using on everything and theyre available in regs. i have no confirmation on that though so its purely a guess. maybe a tahoe x sfv male x louis xiii cross, who knows anymore. things are getting all mixed up with the new kids, no scientific methods at all.

I can say for a fact that Swerve sorted out a few guys that suffered badly with herms. Bitched about it on the CC forums, he asked them to PM him, next thing happy customers. He did do right by his customers.

And I recall him updating some of the breeding too, like using SFV 4 instead of SFV 3 and so on. To get something like the Tahoe takes a lot of 'inbreeding' I guess, and somewhere along the line something went out of whack but he was VERY aware of it, and very on top of it too.

All politics aside, the guy IS a good breeder.

dunno mate, i don't know much about it other than a few growers here with problems, as i recall at least one of them was not a noob lol
like i say it was some time ago
i still look at his strains and have a few i would like to try
the FAK i am growing at the moment is a cross made with cc (alien kush), i'm not against them

the name has to do with big buddha seeds and the genetics... its a big controversy. well not really but kinda. swerve basically swerved all over the place and named something first before someone else could. sorta.

just another crazy business exchange among people toasted on dabs bumping rap music.

I can say for a fact he is a liar and full of stories. I was a moderator on his site and for me saying something publicly about his lies of replacements and gifts/prizes he removed me. I've been waiting since Dec 2011 for something swerve said "I'll mail it out this week what do the you want" lmfao. I kni plenty of others on the Cali connection forum too who pmed me because I was a mod and swerved owed them seeds or something.

Even his OWN BROTHER INLAW said swerve ganked him and still owes him with swerve telling me to just delete it lol.

I would have to agree with wyreberrywidow on this. I was asked several times for a "safe addy" so he could mail the seeds i supposedly won for two or three bud pic of the month contests and he was supposedly going to hook me up for some hermie problems but after several months he sent nothing.
He still has some great gear but you have to be carefull while running it and watch for hermies and dont believe much that swerve says.

I have never ordered CC gear, I would like to grow his gear some day.

At a certain point all you mofo's are just bullying the dude, all that has needed to be said has been said. There is no need for a new thread to bash him personally while a majority compliments the guy's genetics.

Is it any wonder he posts the way he does? his posts read as pure frustration that people are still doing the same thing years later. Sayin the same things bringing up stories they twist to make him sound like the most evil man in the seed game, meanwhile half the shit you hear is not how it went down.

I know people love drama, hell I have read a tonne of these threads (while shaking my head at all the new accounts that pop up) but as time goes on it's the same people posting the same thing, if you feel wronged I understand your rage, but every single one of you have said this shit in another thread, why not just link to that?( instead of allowing these threads to go on and get these retardedly twisted stories like "swerve posted everyones CC info online" (you can effect the guys business with bullshit like that all because of what? i'm sure loads of people would love to have their livelihood shook up because of some bullshit retelling of story )

you'd swear swerve tenderized someones baby marinated it and threw it on the grill right in front of them. I try and keep it real civil here but threads like this really need to stop, it's a bunch of idiots half a world a way talk trash about someone personally.

all because of bad business practices. swerve deserves anything he gets, its called karma. he might as well start tenderizing someones kid....

Mr head. I often lock and close these types of threads when I feel they've turned into a bash fest instead of being informative but the problem lies in that shortly after I close a thread, another pops up soon after..
The funny thing is it seems that all Cali connection threads go down this road after a few pages..
I've been keeping an eye on this one and will leave it open for now so long as it doesn't get much worse..

iv been trying to avoid personal attacks as much as i love em.

well mr head its a lot more then just his genes or his business that comes into question.

The whole capt krypt thing made it to were i don't feel comfortable publicly defending his genes any more. ya the guys is a stoned forgetful nerd that somehow got "street cred" cause he used the same text as the godfather movies. but he's also got himself tied up in 100's of lies.

swerve reminds me of a lot of the rappers i meet out there in my line of work. most of them have this dazed look almost like "i can't believe you all are falling for this" like they don't even believe their own hype. its easy to spot.

at some point i agree we need to quit rehashing a lot of the old details but thats the thing with swerves company. it preys on the new and uninformed. they all prey on the new and uninformed don't get me wrong. BUT his company for some reason gets all those new and uninformed buyers all worked up.

This is good and bad

good for his wallet

bad for his grow reports.

when you got a buncha first timers running your shit your gonna have ALOT of herm issues. hell he could sell carrot seeds and i bet we would see herm issues by the first harvest. not always his fault

BUT when you have ALOT of new growers who already put your company on shaky ground representing you AND then you release something with shaky genetics all the while touting it as the best. even "Bitchin!" lol

your gonna catch the shit storm that swerve has parked over his head at the moment. swerve is like one of those shady guys who run a lawn mowing business. don't ever listen to half the shit they say and only pay em when its done. he somehow just managed to get into a higher position before it all started blowing up.

my guess is its the weed seed game so he figured "shit whats someone gonna call the BBB on me?"

Hell all this controversy keeps us all talking about him so he probably loves it.

i know I'm bout to give him a pile of cash for beans just to get a real taste of it all myself lol. he's the hollywood bean man.

These threads definitely have a mixed effect, I honestly believe more people are drawn to try his stuff out for themselves by the time they are done reading a few of them. It's a mystery catches the curiosity for sure, and like I said we all love a bit of drama

I have seen so many amazing looking tahoe Og grows and that bubba sounds awesome aswell, I have to try em, will be going with a bank for sure

for sure. theres something inside me that screams "hey this fuckers lying too ya, CC is dank and he wants to keep it all to himself" whenever i read the reports. I've only read a few from people i actually value their opinion and they have usually been moderate. not the best grows but the smoke came out great.

all in all i think if swerve behaved like B not one person would be throwing a bitch fit. i don't mean to bring his name into this but he is a beacon of the bean industry. i bet B sleeps SOOOOO good at night.

i think you should keep the thread open myself, but even if you close it, there are still quite a few threads
that can be found using the search function featuring swerve fighting with folk here
i recall him fighting with stickyfingers over hemmy plants
this was some time ago, hopefully he has worked on his people skills,
it is not good business to go around upsetting potential customers
some folk will not buy his gear on principle

i have seen you yourself and others make negative comments about subcool on quite a few occasions , it would seem a little hypocritical to me if you
were to close this thread, although i guess if someone started a sub cool thread with negative comments you would have to consider closing that too ?

since subcool does attract users here and is a regular poster , unlike swerve ?

peace

i kinda see sub and swerve a little differently and i think its why it gets played the way it does.

you WANT to hate sub but its hard to find reasons. even if you hate him for being a dick he's being an honest dick. only thing you can really hate on sub for is your jilly bean doesn't taste like your buddies. PHENOTASTIC!

But with swerve you WANT to like him but every chance u try to give CC something else jumps up. i think this makes people get vendettas too. they invested their emotion into CC and bought the magic only to not be a part of the cool kids table. then too be part of the cool kids table i think some then swap and go bashing.

vendetta threads all day need to be shut down immediately no matter who its about. but a factual honest thread should never be shut down no matter how its making certain individuals look. if its factual and honest said people should of thought about it before they made their decision.
