Take T-1000, an Old Family Purple selection named by CSI Portland, built on Triangle Kush and Purple Urkle, and put it over Triangle Kush, the Florida clone a lot of people credit with starting the OG line, named for the Jacksonville-Miami-Tampa triangle. That is T-1000 x Triangle Kush. Humboldt CSI work almost entirely from clones they hold themselves, so both sides of this are the real thing rather than a seed-line approximation of it.

Order matters in a cross name. In T-1000 x Triangle Kush the T-1000 side supplied the seed and Triangle Kush the pollen, and the reciprocal - the same two plants the other way round - is a separate breeding decision with its own results.

Genetic Lineage

• Mother: T-1000. An Old Family Purple selection named by CSI Portland, built on Triangle Kush and Purple Urkle. Parentage: a selection from Old Family Purple, which is Triangle Kush x Purple Urkle. Appreciates steady feeding rather than a boom-and-bust schedule.
• Father: Triangle Kush. The Florida clone a lot of people credit with starting the OG line, named for the Jacksonville-Miami-Tampa triangle. Lighter on the pine and cleaner-fluid terpenes than its reputation suggests, which is why breeders pair it with louder cuts; Humboldt CSI's 5150 is their pick out of a large Triangle Kush S1 population.
• What to expect across a pack. Two distinct parents means real variation in frame, finish and nose. Select early and take cuttings off anything you would want again.

Flavor and Aroma Profile

Expect the profile to move plant to plant rather than settle.

• The Aroma. Juicy grape and sweet cream over pine needles and skunky diesel, with musky earth and a touch of spice from the T-1000 side, against classic OG earth and pine, noticeably restrained rather than loud from the Triangle Kush side.
• The Taste. Cream and grape into pine and light diesel, earthy at the end up front, turning to earthy pine with OG weight behind it, cleaner at the finish than at the start through the exhale.

What each side brings

• Two different harvest dates. Roughly fifty-six to seventy days, with many growers looking at week nine for T-1000, eight to nine weeks, reported sixty-three to seventy-seven days with most growers near seventy for Triangle Kush. Judge each plant on trichomes rather than pulling the room together.
• Two noses, one pack. T-1000 contributes juicy grape and sweet cream over pine needles and skunky diesel, with musky earth and a touch of spice. Triangle Kush contributes classic OG earth and pine, noticeably restrained rather than loud. Which dominates is the main thing that varies.
• Build. On the T-1000 side: indica-leaning at roughly seventy-thirty, medium height, stacking dense spear-shaped resinous colas. On the Triangle Kush side: stocky and bushy at moderate indoor height, up to two metres outdoors; vegs vigorously and throws heavy foliage; takes trimming, defoliation and lollipopping well; dense bright green flower under heavy resin. Select early rather than trying to train your way out of it.
• Opposite ends. T-1000 is reported as calm rather than busy; body-heavy and relaxing; Triangle Kush as the potent, focused end of the OG family. 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. T-1000 is medium-sized and about seventy percent indica, stacking resinous spear-shaped colas. Triangle Kush is stocky and bushy at moderate indoor height, up to two metres outdoors; vegs vigorously and throws heavy foliage; takes trimming, defoliation and lollipopping well; dense bright green flower under heavy resin.
• Before the flip. Decide the shape now. These lines do not tidy themselves up once they are running.
• Flowering Time. The parents are not on the same clock. T-1000 runs roughly fifty-six to seventy days, with many growers looking at week nine, Triangle Kush eight to nine weeks, reported sixty-three to seventy-seven days with most growers near seventy. Judge each plant on trichomes rather than pulling the room together.

Effects and Experience

• The Mind. Growers describe T-1000 as calm rather than busy; body-heavy and relaxing.
• The Body. Triangle Kush is reported as the potent, focused end of the OG family, and that is the side supplying the weight here.

In the pack

7 feminized seeds per pack. Feminized seeds from Humboldt CSI. Nearly everything CSI put out is built from cuts they hold themselves rather than from other people's seed lines, which is why their catalogue reads like a list of clones instead of a list of brands. Original Humboldt CSI stock.
