OG Kush... The purple pheno...

[Megatron]

So I found a guy that has rooted clones of this for about $100.00. Im not able to get them any where else, so the price is fine with me. What im wondering is has any one grown out OG Kush before? And if possible, does any one know about the purple phenotype? What can i expect, estimated harvest, tips, tricks, ect. Any info on this strain is going to help alot. I will be going to pick it up next weekend. The plan is to make a mother out of the clone, and clone from it to move into DWC buckets. I plan on growing the mother in soil, and the clone DWC style. Thanks!

I don't have any experience with OG Kush, but since it's clone only I'm wondering how it would have a purple phenotype, since it's a clone, which would mean it would have the exact same phenotype as the original, but whatever it is, it sounds interesting but a little pricey. Your plan sounds good though as far as making a mother out of it.

I'm wondering how it would have a purple phenotype, since it's a clone.

I dont understand your question. All plants have three phenotypes. One that mostly resembles the mother, one that mostly resembles the father, and one that is a mix of the two. If one of the three phenotypes has the purple characteristic in it, and you clone from it, the clones will poses the same traits as the mother it was cloned off of. In fact in order to get a phenotype that has the traits your looking for, its easiest to get a clone that some one has already identified as the desired traits.Rather than growing from seed, inbreeding, looking for different phenos, and then test them out to see if they posses the trait you were looking for. Hope this makes sense.

I don't understand your logic. The original OG Kush is a clone only strain. They all have the same phenotype.

ahhhhhh, I get what you meant now.

The clone was taken off of a mother that is a purple pheno. Sorry if it sounded like I was saying the clone was a purple pheno, and the mother was not. The mother was a clone that the guy got a few yrs back, it is a purple phenotype for sure!!! I did not know that OG kush is a clone only strain. I guess commercially it is, but there are still people out there with OG kush seeds. Im thinking that they got a clone, and cubed it with something else, and looked for the purple pheno. So with that being said, this might not be a 100% original OG kush. hmmmmm.

Either way, if you know it's good, go for it. It sounds good, but like you said it's probably not the original OG Kush, but like I said, it sounds really good, just a little pricey.

he's not that far off, there is some truth to what he says. the difference is if it was a stable strain or not. if it wasnt stable or it was crossbreed you can expect to get several phenos.

The OG Kush are all asexually propagated daughters of the same mother- the same individual plant.
There are no seeds and no phenos.
There's no purple version- it's a delicate pale almost pink color.
There ARE three lines, though- over time, cuts that made it to different region started to show subtle, yet noticeable, mutations.
Eventually these cuts were named: SFV (San Fernando Valley), Ghost, and Abusive.
I run the abusive. It's the lankiest of the three.

Question.... If I were to stress a clone of the OG Kush, causing is to go hermaphrodite, couldn't I pollinate another one of the OGK clones? Then wouldn't I have seeds of OG Kush? The only down side that I see would resemble the down side of feminized seeds. Since it would not poses the male chromosome. Please correct me if im wrong, I dont mind, it just helps me learn. Also I was wondering if my statement was incorrect. I was under the impression that all plants have three pheno types, like i stated...Is this incorrect?
