Does this look like a good start to a pain relief seed bank?

Looking for feedback on these strains, and what else I may try. Going to be ordering from Attitude tonight or tomorrow.

Was going to grab a 5 pack of each when available, might as well use some of that bitcoin :)

Barneys Farm CBD Critical Cure
Barneys Farm CBD Blue Shark
BC Bud Depot Harlequin BX4 (other Harlequin out of stock)
Resin Seeds Cannatonic
CBD crew sweet and sour widow
TGA seeds Pennywise

Got Tony Greens Gorilla Bubble BX1F1 on order.

Already have some High Amperage ready to pop soon.

I think for pain, you need more THC then CBD , all your picks seem to be more to the CBD side,

I just had a good experience with Neptune seed bank .

I have pretty severe arthritis and chronic depression and for me a 2:1, CBD:THC made into cocobudder is the bomb! A tsp of 20:1 a couple of hours before bed has me grinning like a fool, sleeping like a baby and waking up in a good mood with hardly any joint pain. Lasts until the late afternoon where I take small hits in a cheap pipe to maintain until I dose with the oil.

Just about to flip my CBD girls and until they get done I today ordered 1/2 oz of CBD Critical Mass from a club I belong to in Kelowna. I'm in northern AB where there ain't nothin. It's 9%CBD, 6%THC so close enough.

I've grown and tried so many strains the last 16 years trying to find "the one" and some Sweet Skunk CBD I got out there a year ago has me growing the other way with hi-CBD the goal. I got an Otto#1 female I'm going to use to make some nice crosses. BlueBerry, Original Skunk, Island Sweet Skunk x BB and many more in the future. Might get into seed sales with each for $2 kind of thing. Set up a little website and take cash orders. Probably not tho. :)

The Otto is <1%THC and up to 27% CBD and I hope to get her lab tested to be sure. The other 2 are the Otto crossed with Cannatonic and I want both tested as well as they are from seed. Finally getting me some real medicine!

Tbh I’d stay away from Barney’s and BCBD and I’d go with and the Hurkle over the Pennywise isn’t very good compared to the Hurkle I’ve grown both.

Bodhi Sunshine Daydream
Bodhi Black Triangle
2 packs of TGA Hurkle

Buy better seeds get better weed. The Sunshine Daydream is fantastic smoke the Hurkle great smoke. I’ve never grown the black triangle but a lot of growers report she’s very strong.

Everyone,Thanks for the replies.

DAMN too bad I didn't see this until after ordering :).....Got the following (mostly arbitrary picks):

Brothers Grimm Seeds Cinderella 99 ($$$ stuff, supposed to be a top pick overall, regardless whether it helps with pain was planning on trying)
TGA Subcool Seeds Pennywise (will see if Attitude will make a substitution, same price.. )
Resin Seeds Cannatonic
Barneys Farm Seeds CBD Critical Cure

I'd have to agree on Bodhi's Sunshine Daydream, warm blanket of stoneyness and heavy eyelids with the most comfortable sense of well being. Back pain forget about it. Also great for if you are like me and just feel shitty in the morning sometimes and also great for getting through an uninterrupted night of sleep if you're a light sleeper. Rare Dankness's 501st OG is a really heavy stone narcotic painkiller effect, will put your day on hold for sure. Not to mention both SSDD and 501stOG both are some the best tasting strains especially certain phenos. And with CBD's its definitely best to consume a 1:1 ratio CBD/THC according to the general consensus

Can one actually function/work/drive/be active with these strains? 70% of mornings I wake up and my back is so stiff I have to execute this silly looking roll off the bed just to get to my feet. 30% of time I'm up with minimal pain. On the worst days Im usually ok after getting moving. It loosens up to the point I can lightly jog around and the kick the soccer ball with my son. However once I start pushing it I may get a crippling spasm.
Had this pain since 2010 to a way less degree (morning pain started early 2017) and was actually able to play competitive soccer for years at a relatively high level. It doesn't help that I'm way outta shape. Seems like the more I move. . I.e. yardwork, chopping firewood, gatdening, woodworking. .. the better it gets. Def need to get in shape. Lol.

You sound like me man. GB should do ya wonders. It was bred for us. She is nearly pure thc. The best phenos are like taking a Valium in the middle of a spasm attack. When I smoke her I can feel the muscles and spine relaxing. I Will often get some relief popping of the vertebrae mid smoke.
My advice make some edibles with her to get those metabolites in your system long term. I take a piece of a brownie every morning to get me loose.
Please let me know how she does for you. She has given me back my mobility enough to greatly improve my quality of life. Spasm free for two years with just minor stiffening to deal with if I overdue carrying heavy shit.

I’m running C99 now.
Ran 7 seeds, 4 went into flower then 2 weeks the other 3 went in.
They seem very stable, and very alike,
I know I have the pineapple pheno, but hard to tell if I got the other flavors . (The pineapple is overwhelming all other smells in the room)
Out of the 1st 4. One is almost finished @ 50 days . The one that’s making the big buds will go around 55-60, one is purpling up, but bud half the size of her sisters .
The other 3 , 2 are not as good as what I’m seeing with the other 4 . I’m watching the other one, could be good too.
I’m keeping the fast one, and the strongest one with the big buds .
But you don’t know what ya got till it sees fire .
They seem to be heavy feeders , next run I’m going to up the feed

Same thing dude along with spinal stenosis and arthritis of the spine. Also got a fractured vertebrae in the thorasic that never healed. Back in the day battled sciatica but that's gone away as shit started to fuse... now I get the spasm attacks that will make me unable to walk for a week or two if I am not careful. Wouldn't wish back spasms on anyone.

Damn, yours is alot worse than mine. Mine started in 2010... was manageable until 2016.. got worse around Feb 2017. Still haven't had any sciatica yet, knock on wood.
I've had dozens of muscle spasms. Haven't had one in a while. I know now when to call it quits.
Docs tell me no way they will operate until it gets way way worse. I've heard that once the fuse is complete it can get much better.

Same thing they told me. You need 5 replaced but you're too young so get used to your back going out 4 5 times a year.

Less pain but not as much mobility. Stiff as a board when I slide out of bed. Also can't sleep for more than 6 or 7 hours tops. If I do I'm damn near crippled when I get up ha.
