Ok, I whittled my original 15+ strains down to 8. Now, I've divided the 8 into Side A (4) and Side B (4), sectioned off my 2 veg areas into 6 sections (not including a 2-shelf seedling/clone area): 1 section for each Side A strain, and all 4 Side B strains share 2 sections. So, friends can expect to always see all 4 Side A strains and I can keep it interesting on Side B. Also, I'll try out any new additions/RIU suggestions on Side B.
My 8 strains are below. If you see any palate gaps, I'm all ears. I feel like the indicas are in pretty good shape, so I guess I'm most in need of a standout feminized sativa-dominant photo strain.
Side A
- Taskenti (1 source)
- Gelato (Larry Bird) (2 sources) (smelliest indica-dom so far, but my first round of Taskenti finishes in 2-3 weeks)
- Gorilla Cookies (1 source)
- Grape Ape (1 source)
Side B
- Bruce Banner, Bruce Banner 2.0 (1 source of each)
- White Widow (currently, 3 sources; reducing to 2, then maybe 1)
- Animal Crackers (1 source) (smell and taste surpass Gelato but AC isn't as potent; so, in a blunt, I add AC to another strain that's more potent but less smelly/flavorful)
- 5 Alive (1 source) (this one's the most difficult to grow/clone ... and it's slow. Occasionally, I'll bloom one. I might keep 5 Alive for myself, maybe a few people; or I'll eventually replace it).
Coincidentally, the 8 are 4:4, indica-dom to sativ-dom. I've also been waiting for a few Dark Horse strains to become available again. Other than those, I'm looking forward to your suggestions and giving some of them a run!
