Not knocking the ECSD or the OGK.....BUT Rumors spread like wildfire when half truths get reprinted on other websites....shit drives me crazy....and Lineage gets lost and screwed up...so lets rebut the story and give another perspective.... "if you watch CNN and believe everything you see, your in too deep..."....Damian Marley.....
The main problem with "thos kids" story (which has changed 3-4 times already) is they Originaly said the "chem" seeds came from a "couple of pounds" of Chem.....not they were handed seeds by a Co grower...They said a friend in CO Shipped out a bunch of herb and a couple of seeds were found.......
The other problem is not alot of folks have grown or seen the CO Chem compared to the EastcoastChemdawg except for a select few....The two Versions of Chem are TOTALY different.....the version started on the East coast is much closer to bud structure and flavor to the ECSD WHERE the CO Chem is closer to the OG Kush/OG'ers Kush....The SEEDS that they East coast krew claim to have gotten were crossed with something entirely different than what the Orig CO Chem resembled.....yes they smell and taste similar but budstructure and potencey are lackin from the Originals...and all the mold and hermie issues also popped up in the EC chem.....
Some of their story makes sense....but it was after I questioned the Male in the seeds of Co chem (Since CO chem is a FEMALE only strain) they changed their story from "we found" to "we were given seeds"....bunch of BS if you ask me.....
From more reputable sources out in Colorado I heard the CO chem originaly came out of PNW in the mid to late 80's......It was grown in a extremely tight group of growers who lived in the Leadville area...It was even known to be grown outdoors at 9000ft and Finish before the first heavy snow (49-55 days not the 67-72 days of the ECchem)....From what the old timers say it was MOLD PROOF.....which is not the case with EITHER ECchem or the ECsourD cut.....OG is quite the mold resistent strain......apparently the strain became extinct in CO in 98 due to that entire group of growers being busted and moms lost.....and I heard this story from one of my friends Dad who is almost 60 and a much more of a believable source for me....
So what they got was a form of Chem and the ECSD came from their...but to compare it to the Orig CO Chem or to say OG was a hermie from the EC I just cant believe it and I wont let the rumors fly without sayin sumthin.....
A much more likely story is the Orig CO Chem was crossed with a few different males over the years and the ECchem and the OG kush were off shoots of the Orig mom...Either in CO or in the PNW, northern Cali......as their is no way to "backstep" from the ECchem and get OGK....you cant even compare the two.....
all it takes is a lil actual growing of these strains and you can see for yerself the wholes in the story.....

I'm gonna start a thread on how I was the original Breeder of Bubba kush under another name on OG and see how many people fall for it....too many folks believin what they read insted of growin and seein for themselves.....

Well the Current version of the EastCoastChem plus The EastCoast SourDeisel both have Powdery Mildew problems.....Like you said in yer PM..the cuts got weak over the years....hasnt been the same since 95 I believe was your comment......
Ive been saying for a while , for 5 years I spent living in EastHampton I used to see SourDeisel, Headband, Daywrecker and a whole slew of other stuff and it all was MUCH better than todays versions...better flavor better high....glad CD backed up my thinkin on that in that pm......Orig I thought it was cause I was younger and my tolerance level was lower but I honestly believe the stuff was better back in the 93-96 era....
whoever was responsible for keepin them clones all these years did a real bang up job...lol...
Nespecta...you know where to find me....
