cali connection blackwater...boo!

Well good and bad news! First off,bad news for blackwater,I found that after misunderstanding my partner,the one that pollinated my garden was MALE!..FROM FEMINIZED SEEDS!!! That's the bad news I guess if you might wanna grow blackwater..good news I think,and correct me if I'm wrong,a true male pollen is more stable than hermie,and less prone to defects? Like variant traits? Could the seeds I have now have a def. feminized trait..not trying to take any fame from anyone,just wondering what might be possible from these seeds..any insight I welcome.

whoa a male from a fem.. thats a long shot chance but a stud...off spring will exhibit a higher female ratio

Dude..I'm not trashing your shit..I'm a veteran grower,and just saying what happened while growing this strain...I just wondering what would happen growing out these seeds..cuz my cannadential mom is the moneymaker,and that said I like the look of your shit so far,just had an issue..so whatever,I just askin any people who don't wanna be biased a question on these seeds and there outcome if I plant em...get a grip man,a tight one around a bong.

i don't think he's saying you're trashing his gear, he knows he had fems throwing out male plants in some of his gear, but rather saying it can happen.

Well I apologize if I'm mistaken,just seemed a cynical statement..still wondering what I'm in for if I plant these seeds...

Bro I think he's just sayin that if you did get a male ... Then he should be a good one that produce the majority female seeds, with fem seeds there's always a little chance of getting a male , that's why a lot of companies will say 99% female cuz there's always a chance, I have a friend that has been growin sour d for 15 years and every once in a while he will find a few nanners a get a couple beans , a couple of years ago he found a male ( the only 100% male sour d I had ever heard of) and he keeps that stud around and gets great offspring from him. So it might b a blessing to get that male

See that's what I wanted to know or hear...I just don't wanna waste my time growing out these seed if I can find out now that they will be male or prone to hermie..blackwaterXcanndential=conspiracy theory ..putting some seeds in the grond next tues!

i was impressed with yall tahoe og... i got a sick ass pheno!!!!! good work bro

I aint tryin to b a party pooper or nothing and I started to post this bfore but didnt because of the aforementioned reason, but the ONE time I fucked up and thot I had really done something good by allowing a male white russian to fertilize a killer unknown bagseed I got nothing but fucking males every time I grew a seed of that trash out! Finally after like 10 goes at it (plus giving 4 starts to a friend that turned out male too!) I said fuck it and trashed the seeds. Decided to leave the breeding up to the breeders and let them go thru the tedious selection process that I had really no clue about. I figured u cross a killer strain x a killer strain and u get a killer strain? But who knows what kind of bastards those poor mixed up "hybrids" throw out when combined together? Hell some of em are hybrids of hybrids w/ over 8 strains "contributing" to their lineage?!?!? WTF? how is someone gonna cross a seed like that w/ another hybrid and expect to get anything more than a bunch of gear that doesn't know wtf its supposed to b. lol?

YEP that was the first og from seed i trie and loved it.. Got some buddha tahoes going now hoping i find a keeper out of these because these are my last 3 beans \.. 1 is already looking like a runt and is about to get culled because its not keeping up with the other 2.

Well I pulled two males today...cut a clone off the best one...both looked real nice, grew like fems, shame they had to go...but I will say so far I am digging this strain ...longer veg time is a must ...will post update in few weeks.

I grew out a 10 pack of Blackwater early last year, 1 turned slightly purple (was gone by the harvest & cure) but all were pretty SFV Dom.
Wasn't extremely pleased but definitely wasn't disappointed, pollinated a bunch of females with a male just to see and the SFV was still pretty dom with the crosses. The grape smell still was very evident in the crosses, smoking one right now, Blackwater x Diesel.

Also grew out a Famed Mix pack from CC, never had any herm issues.

Bac to the BW, the smoke wasn't that potent but it did smell really nice, total grape/berry flavor and smell. My BHO guy loved making wax with it just because of the smell alone..

Just my 2cents.

Thanks for the info..I got about a week left before I chop them down,and another before ill even think of smoking it...it has a little purple in it and smells fruity with a spicy hint when I squeeze the flowers...

Ok,so I have three phenos,blackwater 1,3,and5...blackwater 1 is nothing othe everyr than purple..the buds are rocks..the 3 and 5s are nice,white buds...bad news is I never cloned the #1 blackwater....I'm pissed at myself,but am still gonna try to clone a flowering plant..any suggestions as I've never done this....and I gotta say to swerve,my final pick of the litter is a true keeper,but I'm still reminding myself of the trouble I've had..not trying to be an ass..but hopefully things are. Recognized for what they are...

You can clone a flowering plant or try revegging it.

I took a half dozen clones 8 days ago ....no roots yet....most strains I have roots by now...you might be better off revegging. Her.

Never reveged before or cloned a flowering plant..stak,I'm not lowering my standards of life so you can raise yours..B-)

I WOuld plant a couple shit why not? I know user on here that grew out a larry og fem it hermied and pollinated a lost coast og or something like that? and all the seeds grown from it were dank with no hermie traits or i didnt hear of it yet... Captainstickfingers i think it was

True. I even passed the cut on to my cousin that beats the living hell out of it and still no herm action.

Ok...so I haven't visited my thread and it seems to have blown up...so,I'm an honest dude..I didn't just get a hermie,I got a male.period..I grew 5 out..2 were stunted,2 keepers,1male..one seed dropped on the ground and never found/grew..stak....anyhow..2 keepers..after the male seeded my garden..just left said garden and the keeper I want is black and dark purple and is nice..I cloned a flowering plant and wanna reveg this plant...all that being said I still say I had a male out a 6pak of "fem" seeds..that's my whole deal...I'm not saying c.c. sucks by quality..but its a fucked up way everyone percieves their buisness..I got lucky with a nice pheno and hopefully it clones or reveges...I like what I got but there wqs a lot ofr bullshit inbetween to get it...and again,my shits legit,never had an issue before...mmy two cents on my own thread..I say this not reading the recent posts..

Popped 5 "feminized" seeds..got 3 keepers,1 hermied and my partner didn't see it in time..I knew swerves stuff was touted to be unstable,but I chose to ignore the issues and got a crop of cannadential that is full of little half mature seeds,and the blackwater was the culprit..I culled the hermie and still have 2 keepers and they are 3 weeks away and beautiful,but I'm unsure if having a shitty quality crop is a risk anyone wants to take to find a golden egg in cali connections genetics..next time I order beans it won't be from CC...next time ill listen to that little voice in my head...and half the members here on r.I.u..

Don't buy fem seeds if you don't want hermies.
