The Worst Strains to Grow

I have the same experience with everything I've tried to run from bcbd. ~50% would crack when germing then die immediately afterwards. Never got to know whether the strains were goof or not because of the immature seeds.

The BCGB was crap.

You can find bangers in r dankness gth#1. But it can take multiple packs to find that pheno that has it all. Gth is a tricky one. Ive found awesome females alongside completely different and junk plants in the same pack. Much more than say Sin City seeds gear..With those strains especially.the Blue Power based ones...even the less than stellar phenos are damn good. What you want from a good seed breeder are packs where its hard to choose keepers cuz they all are kick ass. Gth from Dankness is not one of them. Phenos all.over the place.

Yer just gonna have to run the whole pack and sort em. Iam not a gth expert by any stretch. I ran a pack....actually my cousin did. Picked up 2 more in Jackson and the Cup...all were duds. That first pack had one that was killer but we let it go and i dont remeber why. It was awhile ago.

Pretty much all of the Barney's I've grown were ok but not great, I am a very picky guy it would seem .

Barneys..like greenhouse seeds has been bad luck for me. Tangerine Dream or whatever its called is a joke. There is no way they have cup winners on those seeds.

Get your hands on any of the newish breeders in my opinion. Besides Serious and Paradise Seeds the old timers hqve gotten left way behind. Sin City Seeds has fire as does Gage Green MotaRebel...Bodhi Seeds...Ace Seeds. There are a handful of them for all your seed needs.

Is there such a thing as a bad strain?

yes

^^^^more and more I think, but probably better ones as well, just hard trying to find them hidden within all the mutts .

Has anyone counted the strains that Barney's sells? It's a joke really.

The amount of strains that a company just blasts on the scene with CAN be a warning but it all depends in my experience. There is a such thing as a bad strain for sure. More like the amount of poopy doop within the strain in general. To be honest and usually....i will try just about any strain...ONCE. If i dont find something at least decent. ..shes gone. Cold Creek Kush from ThSeeds comes to mind. Cracked all 10 awhile back. Got 4 females i think. It was awhile ago. All 4 grew similar and uniform in veg. Got my hopes up. All four were complete duff. I grew these in damn near perfect conditions too. Giant hay smelling and tasting. Close to zero trichomes. Just garbage. Like hemp. Never again.

Anything big bud that I have grown threw dicks. Both the ww and nl strains crossed with it have hermed the fuck out on me. Nothing else that I have in my garden atm has ever done that. Ever. I have been growing for years. Weak genetics, boss. Snake oil.

Maybe it was your defoilating and flushing techniques...

Its the Haze really. That variety has been giving breeders and growers headaches for decades now. But once you lock in that special haze...its game on. Look at the clone only santa cruz cut of Blue dream...and how breeders try and make seed versions of a haze blue berry cross....most turn out nothing like it. You have to go through alot of seeds usually with haze based strains. And breeders will tell you when working with a Haze...it usually dominates the cross. Haze is a tricky one.

I grew a pack of Sensi Seeds Silver Haze that we smuggled back from Amsterdam in 94. It produced some of the strongest weed that anyone in our Seattle circle had tried. It was amazing once you picked through the seeds that is. One plant left in the rear of the room switched sex after the 4th week and completely fertilized everything in the room, before I discovered it.
The gth#1 did not herm on me, even though I had a hard time feeding her like she wanted and spider mites found her delicious. Perhaps, I should give her another shot and pick her up domesticaly from James Bean. I also have a pack of 501st. Og's to test out but I am gun shy to try.
