Here is my review on my last grow...

The Autos
I won't comment too much on the autos, they can not be compared to photoperiod ones.

#1 Serious Seeds White Russian #1 Auto
The best performer of autos, I had 5 plants, 2 phenotypes, one is stretchy, the other one more like a bush. The THC is no less than 15% with high resin production. Under ideal conditions, I believe this plant can yield 40-50 gr. Unluckily I ended up with 15 gr/plant due to heat stress.

#2 Dinafem Seeds Critical + 2.0 AUTOFLOWERING
The quickiest and packed with suger... If it wasn't for the weird high of White Russian, this plant would be my choice in the autos. Very strong terpenes, so smells heavily.

The others didn't make up any ranks;

Auto Seeds Auto Pounder
Good grower, poor high...

Grass O Matic Seeds Auto AK
Good grower, average high...

Barneys Farm Seeds Auto Blue Mammoth
Small trichs, slow growth

As for details on top winners;

Serious Seeds Happiness
This plant is has all the properties of my dream Mother of Clones. To summarize;

- Super hybrid high, with at least 20% THC, I'd say 50/50 Sativa Indica. The buzz lasts for hours, and if you smoke too much, it makes you sleep. Among all the others, this plants high is so different that everytime I smoke it, it takes me to another dimension...
- Superb fast bushy vegetative growth, outperforming all others by far, except Bubblicious...
- Quick finish (10 weeks soil) with fast yellowing of fan leaves, the inner leaves turn purple covered with trichs. Most other plants were full of green fan leaves when this baby was finished and covered with trichomes
- Very easy to train, very strong fibers that gets into any shape without breaking
- Easy to clone
- Strong fruity smell towards the end of flowering, a very unique smell that I can't describe. No smell in vegetative growth.

Resin Seeds Bubblicious
This is a strain that surprised me. I had the chance to have Lavender (Soma) in this grow, which is the father of this strain. They had similarities in fan leaf shape and stem growth, but Lavender performed very badly where as this baby was a monster in growth and a super sativa high.

- Super sativa high, with at least 20% THC, I'd say 80/20 Sativa Indica. The buzz lasts for hours, hitting your eyes and ears with heat. Energetic high, not stoney but very strong.
- Large sativa leaves, fastest vegetative growth I've ever seen, outperforming all others by far.
- Normal finish time (12 weeks soil) with fast yellowing of fan leaves, the inner leaves turn purple covered with trichs.
- Easy to train, very strong fibers that gets into any shape without breaking
- Easy to clone
- Fruity smell

STRAINS WITH PROBLEMS

Green House Seeds Super Lemon Haze - High resin production but very light buzz, 5-6% maybe...

Connoisseur Genetics Seeds Rainbow Jones - Poor yielder, average high... Only the top parts flowered, maybe didn't like training

Soma Seeds Lavender - The most expensive bean in this grow, very poor yielder, strechy growth

Dready Seeds White Jack - Slow growth, low THC... The last on the list...

Photoperiod Agree with you about Green House seeds - not that great if you can get them to germinate. green house seeds really are disappointing - surprised you didn't mention Holy Smokes Seeds good reviews - you also din't mention DNA Seeds very good also - hint a good strain to try "Blue Venom" by (I forget) and Fruit Juicy by Delicous - I believe (really good resin production)

@CenkTripper

Are these all from one seed?

Very nice reporting, good details. Why so many Dutch companies? Is it because of the stabilization of the strains? One thing I'm content on is while most of the Dutch genetics are pretty bland they're very stable, which is nice

I purchased a single seed from each strain (Pick n Mix) from Attitude, hoping to find the "Champions" to clone. I didn't realize many were Dutch, just picked up from the Pick n Mix list by my past experience and reviews. There were 70 strains, unluckily most died during seedling stage due to lack of water, after a series of unstoppable events :-(

Among the seed breeders, Serious Seeds is the best in my experience. But when it comes to best genetics, they come from clones that are not shipped internationally. I wish I lived in Canada and Canada was warmer :-)

Now I have Happiness, Bubblicious, Critical Kush and Motavation revegging.... It will be another journey to test their clone performance.

Can you please elaborate on the blue mammoth some more? Saw some pics of one on here and had to try it so i ordered a pack. Im pretty pumped to start them and am curious of the details at to why you didnt care for it. Thanks!

Pics or it didn't happen. Those are almost all on the lower end of breeders, I wouldn't consider any of those breeders having fire gear and running a single seed from each one really is a bad way to determine which are winners, you need to run at least a pack...

It was the smallest one and the plant stopped growth after 6 -7 weeks with little trich production.... I guess it was a bad genotype, judging from one seed is not deterministic as Yodaweed pointed out. The data presented here is an experimental grow of different strains under same conditions to compare different parameters. Growth&flowering pattern, flowering time, resin production and most importantly different types of high.

I wish everyone had the resources for that... But I found what I was looking for. Who would think Resin Seeds would have such a beautiful plant as Bubblicious. The high is like best Dutch Coffeshop or Spanish Club weed, the growth rate is monsterous...
