So far I have 501st, Scott's, GTH#1, StarKiller, and 1/2pk Ghost of LeeRoy...
Starkiller is still my favorite and I dont really see myself keeping the other strains. I may change my mind after they finish, but so far, I wish that I had another Starkiller in their spot. GoLR in 2nd place.

GTH#1 has to compete with a Bodhi Silver Mountain to keep a spot, both have a haze influence, but Silver mnt has a petro kick and yields nice!

I have a RP Skywalker OG that I am about to flip, and my Rare D Skywalker crosses are Starkiller and 501st. I thought that it would be interesting to see the 3 crosses side by side!

I can start all 3 clones together, it will be summer by that time, but I should have an awesome compost finished then also!!!

So did you get rid of your raredarkness? I have 6 gth but worried about the strecthyness for my set up. Did she stretch a lot with you?

Everything is looking spectacular MSF! The GTH is especially good looking!

I talked to Scott yesterday at the LA Cup and things sound amazing for the future of RD!

I didnt have the darkness. Most of the GTH did have a crazy stretch to them, but there is one that is not so bad and it fills out. I bet that someone could train them easily. Looks like it is time for water lol. GTH is growing directly into my Gavita, had to use a stick to keep it back!!!

I heard something about them working with OG Raskal! Dont get me wrong about Scotts OG, I should probably wait until they were done before I started commenting.

Something occurred to me earlier. I feel like chopping my GTH#1 just to get rid of it! I bet that other people have had the same exp and decided that ALL of RareD stuff was not good! I see the same thing happening with Elemental Seeds and True OG. The breeder's staple strain that they take to the Cannabis Cups and win, but when people buy the seed packs, they dont have a winner in 1 pack... Why wouldnt these breeders enter strains that are viable in seed form, they are a seed company, why not enter a strain that does well from seed? People are buying their most popular strain and getting let down! I have heard of Grape Ox and StarKiller winning awards, feel me?

Sorry, my Silver Mnt is killing it! Very similar, but GTH just does not have a complex terpine thing going. Scotts and 501st have something going. I am just saying that my GTH seems like just another haze cross. I am sure that I dont have the right pheno, but I did run a whole pack. Oh, GTH had great germination rates and I had about 5 females!

I guess that's why we have to pheno hunt. When I first started I didn't know that. I thought that there would be a winner in every pack but I had to educate myself and read and search things out.

I am not trying to say anything bad. I bet that they could win cups with a few strains! Like you said about hunting, the 2 GTH#1 stinkers that I had ended up being male. Maybe I just missed the female!

I kind of feel bad about making a fuss about it now!

I was just trying to figure out why this thread is losing popularity? Every time that I look for it, it is 5 pages back!!!

It is not their strains, but perhaps the marketing strategy. Maybe they should lead with another strain that does well from seed!

Maybe it's the competition. There's so many good companies out there. But I'm sticking with my darkness all year round. One because I put so much time in pheno hunting. My other pheno hunt right now is sinmint cookies...and I'm thinking of getting some dungeon vaults grandpas breath and in house genetics pops purple monkey (grape ape x gdp). I guess marketing helps to. The reason behind the last two genetics I've mention is because they responded back to quick questions that I've had. If you respond back to me I'll definetly support you. Which sincity has done too.

Your happy with your Darkness and I love my StarKiller, I am just glad that GTH#1 was not my 1st strain that I tried from RD.

Starkiller is in my top 3 from seed. I run about 3 seed packs every 2 months, and I use SK to eliminate entire seed packs. I have a very low% of stuff that I keep clones of! I had my SK for over a year and it is very hard to find anything to compare it to. My point is, they are a seed company, market the best seeds that you have!

I'm in the early stages of testing out my raredarkness. I'm happy with it so far.
Scott is on Instagram and Facebook.
There is no interaction from RD on here anymore.
I have some Longs Peak Blue I am going to run this season and I will post it here.
Yeah I follow them on Instagram do you Mohican? I've seen some starkiller shits on instagram that made me want to get some....

I have trouble putting my thoughts into words so here is another attempt. I mean this with the best intentions!!!

I think of my 1st seed purchase from a company is like being on a first date. If the first date does not go so great, there is only a small chance for a 2nd date... Think of the people that buy only one pack of RareD and it is GTH#1, because it is on the front page of most seed banks, and they didnt find a good pheno. Bad first date! My first date was with StarKiller with a free 1/2pk Ghost of leeroy, it led to me buying 3 more packs from them.

I did my homework before I bought the 1st time. Thanks StrainMan from ICMag. It was his pick.

I run clones of every seed I grow. The clones are always different and better - more like the winner.
Running my first clones soon off the mother plants that was from seed. Two different phenos of raredarkness. One pheno is in the cloner and the other is in my veg unit. I'll veg 2-3 weeks under 4 t-5's and squeeze the best 10-12 under my 600.....
