Just Want Mottled or Tiger Stripes

My 1st ordering exp. was 13 yrs ago w/ emery and they were tremendous, HT centerfolds. Unfortunately, I didn't know enough when seeding them to keep the genetics inbred. Ultimately they lost their vigor after several gens, started stretching and produced hermies. Since then, I have gone to multiple sbs trying to recapture the glory days of emery. Not one of my purchases has been satisfactory and I am extremely cautious about experiences I read online.

So.... I'd like some reco's for the following minimum requirements: seeds should be mostly or all indica but must be clearly mottled or tiger striped - anything else is suspect. Vegging plants should have very short internodes - no more than 3/4 inch - preferably less, and there should be good branching. Ultimately, I'm looking for a classic Afghani christmas tree formation with tons of icing and THC>12%. My experience in 30 grows tells me the genetic vigor of a plant - or lack thereof - starts with the appearance of the seed and can be seen very early in the veg process based on growth rate, internode length and branching. Who will go out on a limb and tell me what sbs sell seeds with these critical characteristics? I'm tired of wasting time and money on rip offs and shit genetics. Please post your pics of current grows too.

You my wanna try some Mr Nice strains. He has a few with old school genes.

and sexy looking seeds I hope? I guess I'm more interested in the most reputable banks although I understand they are just retailing some wholesalers stock. I have seen repackaged seeds supposedly from reputable wholesalers that grew swag; in fact that's been pretty commonplace in my experience. I wouldn't think fat resinous indicas with short internodes would be "old school", unless you're talking about the multiple crosses I see at the banks or a >50% sativa mix that would explain somewhat elongated nodes. One of the plants from Emery back in the day not only autoflowered under 18/6 but also grew a donkey dick cola that just dripped with trichomes. Now that's what I'm talking about. Thanks for your reply!
