Big Bad Wolf (Chemdog D x Chemdog 91) is Chem D crossed to Chem 91. Chem D is the workhorse of the Chem family and the cut breeders reach for most. Chem 91 is the SKVA cut, the original Chemdog '91 and the clone the whole Chem family is named after. Between them they cover ground neither reaches alone. Every parent CSI use is a cut they keep alive themselves, so nothing in this pack is a reconstruction of a famous name.

The number in Chemdog D x Chemdog 91 is a specific plant, not a decoration. Humboldt CSI grow a population out, keep the individuals worth keeping and number them, so Chemdog D x Chemdog 91 is one identified selection rather than Chemdog D x Chemdog in general. A pack naming a different number is a different mother.

Chem D sits on the seed side here, Chem 91 on the pollen side. If you have seen these two names paired the other way round, that is a different pack and not this one.

Genetic Lineage

• Mother: Chem D. The Chem family's workhorse and the cut most breeders reach for first. Given as another phenotype from the same 1991 seed lot. It is the Chem half of Giesel, and one of the most widely used Chem cuts in American breeding.
• Father: Chem 91. The SKVA cut - the original Chemdog '91 and the clone the family takes its name from. It traces back to one of thirteen seeds from a bag bought at a Grateful Dead show in 1991. Skunk VA was given a cut in 1995 and has held it since, which is why the line survives.
• The point of the pairing. Neither parent needed rescuing. Putting them together is about what sits between them, not about fixing either one.

Flavor and Aroma Profile

The nose is where these two argue hardest.

• The Aroma. Chemical fuel over dark, turned earth from the Chem D side, against heavy diesel and soil with a thin pine and citrus line at the back from the Chem 91 side.
• The Taste. Fuel and earth, greasy and coating, finishing sour up front, turning to fuel first, earth and pine behind it, sour to close, and it coats the mouth through the exhale.

What each side brings

• Timing. Chem 91 runs sixty-three to seventy days, and that is the half of this cross you can actually plan around.
• Where the nose comes from. One side gives chemical fuel over dark turned earth; the other gives pungent turned earth and diesel with pine and citrus behind it. Plants landing in the middle are the keepers.
• Build. On the Chem D side: open and loose rather than compact, wants support once the colas load. On the Chem 91 side: loose and open rather than compact, moderate to heavy stretch, branches that soften under weight late. Select early rather than trying to train your way out of it.
• Opposite ends. Chem D is reported as alert and head-forward rather than heavy; Chem 91 as alert and head-forward, sativa-leaning rather than heavy. The cross sits somewhere between and moves plant to plant.

Cultivation and Growth Traits

• Plant Structure. The two parents disagree here, so plan for range. Chem D is open and loose rather than compact, wants support once the colas load. Chem 91 is loose and open rather than compact, moderate to heavy stretch, branches that soften under weight late.
• Veg and stretch. Set the frame while it is cheap to do. Anything you fix after the flip costs you flower sites.
• Flowering Time. Chem 91 runs sixty-three to seventy days. Start checking trichomes a week before you expect to be ready.

Effects and Experience

• The Mind. Growers describe Chem D as alert and head-forward rather than heavy.
• The Body. Chem 91 is reported as alert and head-forward, sativa-leaning rather than heavy, and that is the side supplying the weight here.

In the pack

Feminized seeds from Humboldt CSI. CSI work from clone stock they have kept for years and reverse it into seed, so what arrives in a pack is the real cut's genetics rather than a seed-line approximation of it. Real Humboldt CSI stock, not a copy.
