Got too many strains, need to drop a few. Which would you drop?

mother of berry
Blueberry muffin
Doslato
Rainy lady
Granddaddy purple
Zurple purple
Gold leaf
Sour claw
Green crack
It’s it.
 
I would only keep mothers of exceptional plants. Not worth it to keep an average mommy of any strain. I think a best practice would be to clone every seed you pop, evaluate the plants and final smoke, then either keep or trash the clone. Eventually you'll end up with a few epic tier mommies, go for quality not quantity.

Objectively comparing 10 strains to pick ones to drop is an exercise that’s going to be hard for anyone else to do for you. There will be strong subjective opinions but picking them for you is a fool’s errand. If it were me, I’d ask two questions about all those strains:
1) Which 4-5 strains do I like least?
2) Which 4-5 strains are the biggest pain in the ass to grow?
Any strains that fall in both lists would be candidates for getting dropped.
 
Yes, these are mothers. I haven’t even grown half of them and won’t for many months if ever to be honest. I get gifted too many plants. I will keep them for a few months and hopefully pass them along, but I don’t want to take care of all of them.
 
I have room for 4 mothers. Each time a new seed produces a superior specimen, I replace my least impressive mommy with it, that way my small collection will continue to improve. I don't need to keep any, I just like to keep certain plants around if they impress me.

Get some STS and start making feminized seeds. That way you won't have to drop anything and will be able to grow again if you decide. I make seeds of every strain I grow. I don't keep mothers just seeds.

How similar are you finding the MOB and BBM? Those are the two that stood out as possibly similar.
The Doslato could easily be found again too. Lots of peeps have pollen chucked those parents. Should be easy to find.

Agree. Or something easily replaced with something similar or better.

Yeah I was leaning towards doslato and the MOB myself.

As far as making CS. I am trying to make my life easier, last thing I need now is months of taking care of plants for seeds. Although I've done it in the past, not against it, just need to simplify.

So I think I will get rid of the doslato and MOB. Maybe one more.

edit: The MOB and the Blueberry muffin are not at all similar in my opinion. Blueberry is much sweeter and a quicker finisher but the yield is not very good at all. The MOB is a better yielder but the smoke is forgettable for me, but my friends like it.
