I have grown out 5 or 6 packs of emerald triangle seeds I think there blueberry headband and bubba 76 are about the best.
With that said phenotypes are all over the place and in a pack no 2 will likely be the same with the headband
There is the low yield super small frosty nug one the huge yielding huge budded smells legitimately like blubbery
after a cure pheno that lacks taste or potency a mixed pheno (super red haired mild fuel) and then a straight up fuely funky decent yielding fast finishing
pheno you will know it when you smell it. it needs to be topped a couple times for yield but its mother plant
worthy.

What strain was it? I've heard this a few time before it was the same strain I just can't remember. Thinking makybe Grapefruit Krush? No idea what happened, but I was thinking maybe some regs got into their fems somehow.
i remember seeing a few say bubba 76

I know my bubba 76 that's coming down in a couple days looks amazing! Nice and dense round nugs!!!! Mmmm. So excited to get the blueberry headband going!

Slimjimham, good choice of strain. Best to use Light Warrior during germination or any light soil. I found 90 watt UFO was ok for this period but the seedling grow pretty slow. Mainly short for sometime but they are getting stocky during the initial seedling stage so be patient. I grew them outside in 25 gal smart pots, ammended soil and they grew very thick and bushy, multiple stocks rather than just one stalk and multiple branches. I found it is a late flowering strain but once it kicks in it goes bonkers.
Best to use bamboo support rods as the multiple branchs get heavier and heavier indoors or outdoors. I will go with E Triangle again and thought the price was reasonable for their products.

I've got a BBHB and a Lost Coast OG in my tent right now. I've run the Lost Coast before and thoroughly enjoyed it. Stinky towards the end of flowering though. Hoping that BBHB turns out some of the pics here make her look pretty nice.
 
Got some BBHB from my caregiver. Energetic/Euphoric buzz. Makes me chatter and laugh at everything. Didn't take more than one hit for me (although I quit for about 10 years and just started again recently so I am officially a lightweight again). ET lists it as 50/50 and I think mine was more on the Sativa side. Smells like blueberries. Tastes like blueberry-pine. Never grew any (or anything else for that matter). Not my favorite strain but not bad by any means.

I ran a Bubba 76 fem and got a great plant and smoke. Did not seem all that much Bubba to me but great none the less.

Yielded well and stretched, both are non bubba traits. Did not taste of coffee like a bubba, but rather earthy with some sweetness. Potent meds whatever it is.

Will try a Mastodon and Trinity fem seed next time I order.

Grew a single from an old promo. Plant was pretty easy growing. Mine seemed to resist mites compared to other plants. Grew well and was an easy plant. Responded Well to topping. Had very large buds, basically two long arms, Not much popcorn.

Smoke was decent, certainly want impressed with the smoke. It wasn't bad, but it wasn't good. I certainly don't have interest to try any of their gear again. Trichome coverage was medium in output. Only thing I can say is the yeild was great, 2.25 ounces or so off a small plant vegged two weeks. But the smoke and taste were not memorable. Ran her twice and then dumped her

Eta: she ended up in the hash pile both times. I didn't wanna smoke it and didn't wanna rip someone off with average to sub par smoke.

^^ Must have been the 76 like mine was, they were doing the 76 freebie for a long time. Well, I thought it was great but opinions vary.

To be honest, it is only one ceed. Certainly not a fair assessment. The thing is when you have a collection of ceeds that has an almost certainty of producing plants you love, why bother. Besides a freebie is what made me ditch plants.

This plant certainly isn't a huge fail. It's upside is I'm sure a cash cropper could do very well with it. Medium buds, which were large, fast flowering and it did clone well.

Harvested bbhb last week. Good smell, good taste, good high. Buds were hairy, which I don't really like. Yields were medium. Id give it 6/10. I threw out the clones I made. Not a keeper in my opinion.

Well i got a bbhb by et as a freebie from the tude...grew it out, vegged slow but healthy flowered after 5 weeks or so and she definitely started a vigorous stretch. Was very promising, then she took on thrips pretty bad worst than all 4 other diff strains i had....managed to get it under control with the others except for bbhb...the bbhb was last to finish .took 15+weeks in flower!!! And trichs still not ready ....decided its coming down and straight in to the freezer than bubble bags for some ice extraction..overall she seemed promising prior to flower. Then she slowed down and every other girl surpassed her in growth...i got a very leafy pheno, but seems like she'll be the yeilder out of the bunch! Wasn't too happy with this bean waste of my time and electricity. Im sure the thrips and some treatment for the thrips didn't help, but all the other girls bounced back and didn't seem to b affected! Good thing it was a freebie ...ill stick to tga and dna from now on...

I havent grown my freebie yet (and will not) but both of my buddies grew out their freebies and both plants were shit IMO.
I will be giving my freebie to the birds.

Your loss man. I've grown several ET strains both indoors and outdoors. Probably about a dozen or so plants in all and have had nothing but positive experience with them. One fem Grapefruit Krush did throw a few pollen sacs about 5-6 weeks into flower, but I'm pretty sure that was at least partially due to a light leak I had in my tent. I'd have to say Mastodon Kush is probably my favorite. As far as I'm concerned they are legit, but to each their own.
