Im sorry guys, like old school hashplant and original blueberry, the genetics for this strain died out almost two decades ago. Im from BC, born and raised, the son of a grower, been in the business myself for decades, not really a pro, though I did it for a living more than once, but certainly not like some of these guys. That being said, I was there, I remember, its not second hand for me. Some context, other than south western BC everyone in Canada smoked hash, or if they were really unlucky mexican dirt weed, pray it didnt have peroquat on it (before my day). Out east the drugs were run by the actual mob, yes we had it in Canada too, the most prominent being the Montreal mafia, part of the regular mob, again im no expert on that I just know gold seal black hash was brought into the rest of Canada by the ton in the 70's and 80's. There was no gold coin, contrary to popular myth, some bricks were labeled shit like the shahs reserve and that might have had gold leaf on it..hard to remember. Im fairly sure the good stuff had ipium in it because Ive never been as fucked up falling over dundee from weed product than I have with this shit. But heres where it gets historical, after the Seattle KingDome was built, it was the first indoor football stadium and they needed lights that would mimic the sun so the old TV cameras would work properly. Combine that with comparatively lax drug laws a few minutes north across the border, a mild climate, cheap hydro, an established horticulter and indoor/greenhouse farming tech center, northern deepwater ports close to the largest drug market on the planet, draft dodgers and the hippy movement and along with that the green movement (greenpeace was formed in BC) and many strong ties to the Netherlands, made it the perfect recipe for a burgeoning marijuana industry. Which, coincidentally are some* of the reasons UBC was used and not more established eastern Universities to grow this experimental strain. So, long story not very short, we didnt need to import hash, we had, even by the eighties, stopped all importation of all significant amounts of marijuana the strains were so good, so varied, that by the early 90's when i started smoking, and before the massive commercial ops ruined the scene here for so long, i smoked bar none, even compared to todays so called super weed at mid 20's to 30% was not as potent, or as flavorful. Hashplant was called that because it literally tasted like hash, not because it was a strain used for making hash. original blueberry stank, i had a single plant in a 40 light room of Jamaican sugar and all i could smell is fricken blueberry...anyways I digress, i have not tasted OG chemo in 20 years, or anything like it, as far as i can tell its gone, same as hashplant.
Now aside from having one amazing PK dab before buying a G of this stuff I have had no experience with dabs before so take my review with a grain of salt for those of you who have clearly been around the block. I am a heavy user of normal bud and thought this couldn't be much different but this stuff really knocks you on ass. I had already had chemo before and knew it was a heavy indica so I knew it was going to be strong but after just a few dabs I was completely debilitated. My gram lasted me 3-4 days and I don't remember any of it. Tasted just like good chemo should and I like not having to smoke so much to get to that level but you really gotta watch yourself, it'l get ya.
This weed when smelled has an odd pungent smell, but when inhaled kind of tastes like straight up ammonia. It gives you a high the is vey cerebral and very sativa dominant. 3/5 I just don't prefer this
wow nice calm one !
Excellent night time smoke. A hard hitting, indica high that you feel right away. Also has a great taste

Had UBC Chemo in the mid-90s when I visited IRC buddies in Vancouver. It was just "Chemo" back then. I was told about UBC breeding the perfect cancer therapy weed. I called it "God's Weed" and for good reason. The buds were almost solid as a rock. I was told that when UBC tried to go for higher THC there wasn't enough plant matter so the plants weren't viable. Other posts say it's an indica but I was told it was a ruderalis.

If grown right this is absolutely one of the strongest indica strains i've had. Very very good medicinal properties. It hits the spot just right. Long time smokers know what im talking about. Absolutely a classic indica strain. straight fiya!

Oh man. This strain in amazing. As a daily smoker with quite a high tolerance. This really does the job. I shared it in a blunt with several other experienced smokers and got asked what strain it was.
Gets your up there decently quick. High isn’t overly couch lock but definitely heavy. Munchies. Such strong munchies every time I smoked it. Won’t feel any pain after this.
Totally worth giving a try!
