Hey guys,

need some help with an ID on the plant. Ordered 30 plants and it's my usual supplier, with the same exact order, except this time the leaves are 2-3x thicker.. heres a couple of pics of what I am referencing.

I’ve got a genuine MAC going from a cutting. Second run. Leaves don’t look like those. In my experience MAC is a slow grower.

How old is the plant? Is it from f1-f2-f6? Mac v1, or v2.0? It looks like a million other strains so far.

Just a hunch , dosent look like the Mac I've seen ...my opinion shouldn't be taken seriously
If he ordered 30 plants then I guess he should trust his supplier and question him

From a guy whose clique here has kept alive original MAC for a few years. Unsure about anything else except every time it yields some mighty fine smelling bud. Slow to root. Slow to grow.

My bad, I was asking the OP. It looks like it was grown from seed.

I think it is, because I order every like 5 months lol, have a bad back and a group of friends who have the same back problems.. MAC1 is cheap enough to grow and sure feels better than other strains I've tasted

These are some of my older MAC1s.. but now I am doubting if they are or aren't. Anybody have a comparison? Or reasonable doubt that this isn't MAC1?

Hey thc , please forgive me for being somewhat obnoxious for my " fake" comment , I have no idea if it's authentic or not , just really hard to tell from a pic .....
I've had the same plants display completely different growth patterns and leaf appearance depending on factors like health , and light
For instance plants vegging ing under t 5 flouros look different than outdoor and high intensity discharge , or led in appearance .......

I don't doubt that the supplier is honest and doing his best to get you the right genetics , I'm sure he's willing to discuss your issue , good luck

You plants look good ...do you dry them in the pot ? The bud pics look manicured and on the way to dry ?

Yep on their way to dry, I hope the supplier is honest, because the 30 already costed a bit more than I would like to spend.. plus I doubt the light/etc made that big of a difference on the leaves, theyre huge compared to my older ones.

It’s 30 of them I do believe and I’d be unhappy if they weren’t what I thought I’d bought.

Miracle Alien Cookies is a cannabis classic bred by Capulator. It started with the marriage of Colombian Gold with Starfighter. “Miracle 15” was the sole survivor, the fifteenth, of this batch of germinated seeds. Since this survivor was male, it was unable to continue on without the gentle love of a female.
