Every single person I know personally Including a 20,000 sq ft medical warehouse grow and myself love the 818 headband however will never grow it again. For me, it's the only strain I have ever had that will almost always hermie out. At minimum there is always a few nanners for absolutely no reason. Totally pollinated a huge medical grow at a buddies medical warehouse grow mentioned above as well. For me, never again!Are the genetics that much better? Opinions please!
Cali Connection Swerve
I guess we just differ in our opinion on what "connoisseur genetics" are. To each their own. My .02 is there.If you got to grow commercial, then yeah connoisseur genetics prolly aren't something worth considering, as a little more time and effort is required...
It's crazy because I've never ever had a Hermie issue like this. The plants in the same room of different strains were all just fine.
My experience with CC is similar to what is here. I’ve gotten good nugs with their SFV and Tahoe strains.
Gonna go give that a read!I don't want to post a link to it, because the thread is on another cannabis-related forum, but a search for "Cali Connection Feminized La Cookies Review W/pictures" (with quotes) will bring up a thread posted in October, 2017. There are some interesting pictures in it. I had never seen hermaphroditic expression take that particular form before - it's almost like Swerve created a third plant sex.
Oh my gosh! That was a crazy read. The pictures are unlike anything I've seen! You have to work awful hard to make a hermi hermi out lmao....That is something special. Makes my few nanners look like a 100% successful grow.I don't want to post a link to it, because the thread is on another cannabis-related forum, but a search for "Cali Connection Feminized La Cookies Review W/pictures" (with quotes) will bring up a thread posted in October, 2017.

Again, grow room variables can stress plants (I once grew one (each) Serious Seeds Kali Mist and Sensi Seeds Jack Herer, and ended up with seeds - might have been the many months of vegetative light cycle, LARGE plants, and small containers, IDK), which can cause opposite-sex flower production. But this was... It would have surely won an award, lol, had someone been able to figure out a category for it.
I have read good things about their Tahoe OG. Mostly. Well, more than half. I have two seeds labeled "Buddha Tahoe OG" (and that's the only information I have, as they were gifts from someone who received them as gifts), and I remain somewhat hopeful that they'll be fine when I get around to trying to grow them.
I have heard that the hermie genetics come from the SFV Og they use to breed female seeds. Don't know for sure if that is a fact. If I was going to buy Cali seeds I would look for something that does not have it in the mix. I don't know for sure they use it for everything.
You asked if it is worth the coin. That answer has to be NO. Not at their prices. It all matters what that money means to you. There is a chance you will be wasting it. You could get some kick ass weed though.
What are some better breeders that you would recommend?I see the word is out. Cali Connection has some great genetics. They also have a hermie problem. I grow their Tahoe and get a hermie here and there. It is strong as F**k so I keep growing it.

Way too many great breeders out there too risk your money.

If they have a strain made with different genetics then It might be worth a try
