Wow I just ordered beans and was gonna go with the money maker. But decided against it and got Emerald Triangle Lost Coast OG instead.

let us know how that goes...I couldn't get mine to crack

Sorry to hear that Johnny I hope I get better luck man. That happened to me last summer on some sour kush beans I was drooling over lol

Peace

That would be a little disappointing, but I guess that's the way it goes sometimes. Better luck next time Johnny.

I have 6 money makers idk why lol fell into propoganda

Got an Arjans Strawberry Haze flowering right now. It's really sweet smelling. The plant was half the size of everything else when flowering began but within 2 weeks it had surpassed my other plants in height. My issue is the buds are scraggly looking but it may be due to the fact that it takes much longer than their recommended flowering time. But the buds are starting to form everywhere with no hermie issues. Other than that I've been really surprised by it after all of the negatives on Greenhouse reviews. On the other hand, a CaliConnection Original Sour Diesel is the only thing in my garden to turn hermie on me. I cut that trash down last night so that it didn't effect the rest of my grow. Blimburn is a breeder I've been really surprised by. Grew out their Mamba Negra and it was a darling to grow and smoke. Easy to grow. I'm currently flowering a couple of their Wombat and its the frostiest in the grow room. I've also got a Silver LA(no branching, small buds below main cola but the sweetest, most delightful smell I've encountered), a Humboldt Seeds Trainwreck and she's the best looking, stinkiest in the grow. She also has the best branching and growing structure. I've also got a La Chocolat that's super frosty but doesn't grow or stretch any where near as much as my other ladies. If I were to rate my current grow I'd rate them in this order....Trainwreck, Wombat, La Chocalat, Arjans Strawberry Haze and lastly Silver LA. I know this is a lot but the first 3 on that list is what I would recommend along with Mamba Negra, Madness from world of seeds, Stacked Kush or Kandy Kush.

I have had very good luck with the money maker strain. I don't understand the problem others seem to have with it. is it the strain itself or the breeder that people do not like? using the wet paper towel method all my seeds germinated and three grows with them produced good crops. herbies has a great reputation.I do not know why the would damage it carrying bad seeds and the money maker is one of their most popular strains. am I and all those other customers who by these money makers wrong?

At ten mins arjan explains how the inbred land races exist..they fail to explain by going there and trading beans with the locals they are destroying that very seclusion they are coveting!!

and I can't find the video that made me dislike the guy but he walks up to a wild plant and just starts ripping leaves off and molesting the buds smelling it like a crack head making noises and stuff lol he is just a schmuck id never give them money for their Hermie prone junk rebranded or not ..just me though..the reason they got popular is the same reason many garbage breeders survive..hype! They make YouTube videos for the sixteen year old kids and a prepaid via that will never actually grow the plants, they have a good name and gimmick...and get lucky sometimes just my opinion

My god! I saw a video on vice about those assholes! First, the arrogance straight up annoys me. If you even have your toes dipped in the growing community, you are quickly aware of the history of that bank and how generally shitty their generic offerings are. Next you have them in this video straight up molesting plants and being completely ignorant sounding while holding immature beans, acting as if they've struck gold (all part of a good marketing ploy).

Do they win cups? Sure, just goes to show cups can be bought (as they were and banned for a short period of time).

Who ever watched a strainhunters video knows what kind of people Arjan and his minions are. As mentioned before, they've crapped their rubbish seeds all over india and who knows where else and if somebody tells them what they are actually doing they stupidly defend their actions without even thinking about it.
Also, there are rumours that Arjan and/or GHS were involved in bribing the judges at the Cannabis Cup a few years back. Or was it Barney's Farm? Nevermind, they both dropped off the shopping list a long time ago.

And who calls a strain Money Maker anyway?

No, I think SLH has legitimately won everything it's won. It's won blindfolded secret cups too. I've also had some really excellent Arjan's Haze. It's easy to hate (they particularly make it easy), but the reality is they have some great lines in their stable (as well as some that probably aren't so great). I understand not wanting to buy from them for other reasons.

Some of the hate is legitimate because of bad growing experiences, but most of it stems from winning too many cups and Arjan being too full of himself. That being said, I've enjoyed every Greenhouse strain I've tried. SSH was super potent and got me wrecked, SLH was very uplifting and enjoyable, and HS had a really nice clear heady high that morphed into an enjoyable stoney head high, weird creeper effect with that one. From what I sampled all three of those deserved the cups they won IMO.

I just want to second on the humboldt seed org, some people blasted them but ive been running some of their genetics in the last few grows, just cut down a trainwreck and sour diesel of theirs still hanging the trainwreck smells A+ and their green crack i have in a jar and its also very pungent and knock down. Their pineapple skunk was also spot on with smell and taste. Yeilds werent the best on green crack but potency is there. Trainwreck has the yeilds and is frosty as a bitch. Also ran their blue dream but i wasnt impressed as many seem to have been, the pheno i had yeilded very nice at almost 6 zips for a small majorly trained plant but potency, smell, taste where all mediocre. Im gonna be popping their lost coast og soon to give it a whirl. Some others i have this run that im so far pleased with (havent yet harvested) are dinachem, cheese bomb. The thc bomb, reserva privada headband both are taking a little longer to finish than i like and the structure up to this point isnt quite what i like but we shall see before long. Just threw in a white lavendar and blueberry gum a friend of mine has been preaching about so we will see. Good luck on your search

LOL I am currently Growing STRAIN HUNTERS *White Lemon* (El Niño x Super Lemon Haze) its very easy to grow... really big leaves... and the smell is kicking in now... very nice... got 3 of those no problems with any of them....

I've grown
GHS Lemon Skunk every growing season except this season which is why I chose WHITE LEMON
I LOVE Super Lemon Haze from GHS absolutely the BEST tasting and best smelling weed I've grown so far
But it takes ages! I chopped it in November and I'm not a patient person!
I've grown JACK HERER from GHS and it was perfect, delicious, jacks are my favorite personal smokes
Also CHEESE from GHS very very very very stinky and lovely also no problems easy easy easy grow
Also GREAT WHITE SHARK very easy to grow and thou turned out more like Big Brown Bear was massive yielder
I have grown EL Niño from GHS lovely lovely hard-nugs of goodness YUMMY very easy no problems there

I'm thinking of AFGOOEY from Strain Hunters............

Anyone tried Afgooey .... ?????????????????????

xxmissxx

Most of the strains I have tried from Greenhouse may have been top of the chain 15 years ago, but there is just so much better out there now. Like the above post mentioned... SLH, good but not great. Jack Herer, eh I will pass. Cheese- played out and not great to begin with, etc...

But would you buy a chocolate cake with no icing when there are types of Chocolate cake out there all iced up and ready to be scarfed down? Analogies are fun!

I always stay stick with the tried and true strains! A hard hitting indica like OG Kush gets my vote everytime for the couch lock high. Dr. Greenthumb/CaliConnection/RiservaPrivada are all awesome seed banks with some of the best genetics in the world. Dr. G always gets me my beans in less then a week, never had any problems with cutoms or not getting orders. I don't recommend buying from a seed bank. Why go through a middle man? The best places to order seeds, IMO, are from the breeders themselves. You can call the Dr. personally, and that goes a long way with me. The only bad things I ever see about him are his prices!

cc are hit and miss too.greenhouse sell the most seeds,so ofcourse they will have the most negative reviews.but many more ppl are happy with greenhouse strains,than what arnt.i personally dont grow their stuff,but they have lots of fans,who keep them in business.
