My opinion is that if you are really serious about finding a good keeper from a pack of seeds, the best way to do that is to get reg's, pop a whole pack or even more of you are really serious., select your favourite male and female and breed them back to each other.
That f2 generation of seeds is going to give you way more variation in phenotypes and a much higher chance of finding something really special and unique that no one else has

Bodhi is not a breeder, just a random F1 pollen chucker and the gear he sell reflect that, nothing to rave about, random males with supposed elite cuts, crapshoot
I know this because I grew 10+ packs from him
For new growers bodhi price point is ok, nothing more
Strayfox is a F2 breeder, buy packs and sell untested F2 seeds, not even from elite cuts.. Pass for me.
Doc D again same issue like bodhi
CSI is a F1 pollen chucker, no work is being done in the normal F1 crosses
I also grew much from CSI, nothing special and packs are overpriced to hell
I dunno.. I just run numbers of everything I can get and hope for the best
I don't think this breeder is better than the other
They all do the same thing, F1 or S1
The only thing that matters is if they started with the og elite clone

Which breeders aren't throwing out f1s? I dont think i know if any.
The reason breeders sell f1s is because f1's give good consistency.
F2s and f3s give off wild results that vary a lot. Throwing back to the parents and grandparents even. Which is why I like them for pheno hunting. But not great if you just want to buy a pack of seeds and grow some consistent smoke.

Connoisseur Genetics is a very old breeder from the UK, I think when I grew my first plant some 25 years ago he was making a name for himself, so I do trust he have the elite clones he claim
He is not a breeder by any means, F1 is the ultimate style of his gear
But he took the time to S1 and S2 the SD line and the Chem D, which should sprout some very consistent results of the mother plant (that is if he selected good enough down the first S and the 2nd)
We shall see, Im supposed to get them shortly
To me the way to find good keepers in any pack is to run numbers of it if possible
I do 100-150 plants hunts in 1 cycle so it works for me
F2 and F3 don't give wild results if your selections are tight down the line
The whole point of going to F2 F3 is to create consistency in the line, not to jumble it
If you select an equal or better fem in the F1 and F2 it, your next selection will be more tight, making the F3 even more leaning towards your initial selections
That's called breeding out the bad, keeping the good
It doesn't matter how you do it, by Selfing or Crossing
Only selection matter to the subsequent generation
