Yes...it's not the bible of cannabis genetics but still very informative though...Some strains have wrong info, maybe u want to double check on other sites...

i found some strains rated VERY high that i'd naturally think wouldnt get much attention at all...like white labels white widow...look here http://en.seedfinder.eu/strain-info/White_Widow/White_Label/ rated 9.75/10...seriously?

thats not the only one but its the first that comes to mind...

why are knock offs getting so much credit?

how legit are the reviews there?

Those are user reviews. The problem with 'user' reviews is that most growers are awful growers and their impression of a strain is completely relative to what they've smoked and/or grown themselves. What one grower rates a '9.75/10' might not even be a keeper in someone else's garden.

Not only that, some seedbanks run single seed promos so just because a single Barney's Farm seed could yield utter crap doesn't mean a larger sample size couldn't yield fire.

Personally when it comes to smoke reports, I'd like to see a grow journal along with said report to really put things in perspective, good or bad.

In regards to that site, I like it for the strain linage diagrams.

Yes anybody could post a (subjective) review there. But who's giving the basic info for the breeders/strains? Who's responsible for the updates? It's a great site, I'm quite often there, but despite the fact there are almost every known breeder/strains, I can't find much info for the OGRascal's gear..

Lord crazey grapes will tell you all you need is smoke reports.

But forgets that the whole lot you wrote is why we moan about growth info and no pics......

The site as good info but you only need to look at the sides to see why "Comercial" strains get good reviews. (ads)
Some of them do have grow reports and smoke reports.

Sometimes when a user they dont know ad a report they dont use it so strains that should be aint listed

user reviews aren't always accurate on seedfinder ...... and as homebrewer said ...what is a 8 or 9 in someone's garden could be a 5 in another. What is great about the site is that it can link you to others grows and reviews ....
....i never go off ratings ...... haven't you ever noticed that everyone is smoking anywhere from a 7-10 if they've grown it out themselves ....shit i'm even guilty of it. I have to laugh wholeheartedly at myself when i go back to reviews i've given on mediocre bud.

but yes seedfinder is the best source for info about strains, breeders, and lineage (for the mmost part)

i love love love seedfinder.eu.. not so much for the reviews on strains,, but i more go to check out the lineage of strains .. most times it's pretty accurate imo, although i find things that are wrong from time to time..
but over all, i think they're one of the biggest genetic resources to be found on the web.. not every breeder nor all of their strains are always listed, but they are pretty up to date on most things and like i said, one of the biggest complete resources that break genetics all the way down the line..
i've yet to find a better site for genetics anywhere on the web.. :D

I actually just found it yesterday, it's like a big web that connects all the lineage of the strain you are looking at. Origin and offspring etc. It's on the left side of the page, Descendants Map.

that is a pretty cool thing, i'd just wish it wasn't so jumbled up and a bit easier on the eyes if you know what i mean, i'm getting older and i need things a bit easier for me to see i hate to say.
