So has anyone had a good experience with g13 pineapple express? lol

I use to run it for years the thing about it is only gets good if you cure it for like 2 months then gets really good flavor and potency wise lol

HSO Truthband was super disappointing. Big solid buds, but 0 frost and super low potency.
Best plant I ever had actually was a super lemon haze from Greenhouse, ran it for years.
Now I am running just America breeders. Euro breeders have been left in the dust.

I actually was happy with a single 707 truthband a while back. I don't think I even would have chose it but it was a freebie that cracked in transit and somehow was still viable. Great frost and very unique terps, nice euphoric buzz, not too potent though.
I believe I was told that it is a strain bred by mandelbrot of emerald triangle, if my memory serves correct.

I found a greenhouse SLH that was kickass too but I got really sick of it. Still have the rest of the pack if I get the itch someday.

If you enjoyed SLH, the sour tangie regs I just ran from crockett had a very similar terp profile while flowering but the finished product is better than slh IMO. I'm not huge on fruity smells/tastes but the sweet and sour fruitiness it gives off is quite good- I love ECSD so maybe that's what does it. Tight frosty buds too just prepare for ultra stretch.

Oh yeah, I'm supposed to point out shit beans in this thread eh?

I've been choosing wisely recently but when I think back a little bit...

Sweet tooth by barney's was a hit or miss. Found one that was decent but the others were such garbage. Bad ratio.

Blue dream by HSO sure seemed like a haze crossed with a blueberry, plenty of frost but not very good bag appeal. Lots of variation. Nowhere close to the clone only but that's to be expected. I enjoy the clone only but I basically hated every HSO BD that presented for me.

Pre98 bubba kush from cali connection was potent but the smell/flavor was unappealing.

GSC from cali connection was hit or miss. I found an OK citrus pheno but didn't like it enough to keep and one of the other phenos might be the absolute worst plant that has ever appeared in my garden. 0 frost, and smelled of stinky cheese in the worst way imaginable.

I still have an old pack of chem 4 from swerve that I don't see myself getting into based on the other two experiences.

On a positive note LSD from barney wasn't bad, but not a keeper. And desert diesel from HSO wasn't too bad either. I'm running dynamite diesel from Greenpoint now and it's smelling awesome!

That doesn't sound good haha. I think I have some of those from freebies when I used to order from the tude.

Med mans Special Kush was a total waste of space and resources, absolutely nothing special about it.

Greenpoint hickock haze. 400% stretch terrible bud density however a redeeming smoke value.

I hope they didn't sell early afghan, lol

no he don't sell early afghan.i made lots of fem beans of that so I am the one calling it early afghan.i do not sell seeds but I DO GIVE AWAY SEEDS TO most people that wount them.

Uh oh, did the HSO beans come in a fancy wooden and inscribed box: sealed shut w/a glue gun?.

add barney liberty haze and lemon amnesia, herm and mutant...

I got a Liberty haze freebie that I grew alongside HSO's OG Kush and Female seeds Grapefruit.
Got 11 oz , 3oz and 1 oz respectively.

Liberty haze was a beast of a plant and stole all the space.
Gave a great sativa high with strong pine taste. Loved it

... I smoked the wood instead

Crockett strawberry banana...all 4 plants were exactly the same. Leafy buds with no frost and no smell.

Damn that sucks. I’ve smoked strawberry banana and it was fucking potent. Smelled delicious too. Must be real hit or miss.

Budzbuddha said:

Been here on RIU for a bit and been green growing for years but I thought generating a thread of the SHIT STRAINS each of you growers have encountered..... thanks @pop22 for the idea.

Each grower have constantly stated the strains they love , but what about the over hyped , shit breeding , lousy performance and less than stellar stuff ? .... Breeding has hit highs and lows over the decades , reach out and tell us about your experiences. No matter sativas , hybrids or Indy , you tell us.

Tell us about how they ran , yielded, problems , etc.

I’m asking about seedbank offerings and known breeders only , not your custom cuts.
Believe me , there are “ breeder bunk l floating out there ..... let’s hear it.


I’ll start ....

Barney’s Blue Cheese ..... runty shit
Tangerine Dream ....... horrible smoke

Click to expand...

Tangerine dream was possibly the worst I have ever grown,,

nxsov180db said:

I gotta say.. I also had horrible luck with his gear, i didn't get hermies but the finished product wasn't that great and the yield was low. I have a legit GG4 cut now and it's nothing like the BX I ran from tony, not even close.

Tough rips. I usually get better than a lb per plant. Statistics what can you do.

Don't call people names because you don't like it when you get called names.

nxsov180db said:

I've gotten excellent yields with other genetics, as much as 6lbs 9oz from a 4x8, maybe I just had bad luck..

Statistics. Seeds are a numbers game. Take Amos for example, he popped like 4 seeds and declared the line shit. Then you have hundreds of growers showing bad ass plants from around the world.
Once you start inbreeding traits start segregating as opposed to more heterozygous f1s that 99% of breeders make in their one off "strains" they never even have any documentation of their mothers or breeding plans they just show up with beans. It really isnt work to cross two winner clones.

I don't like running seeds much anymore, It's like playing the Lotto. Most are hyped up bunk and a waste of time and space. Currently running some of Oni's gear and will be chopping 3 different strains with 3 different phenotype's of each this Tues and will be repeating the process 5 more times over the next few months. I'm sure we'll be tossing quite a few clones into the compost bin as well. Also have a Black D.O.G by HSO on a whim with a free seed, not holding my breath but it's looking good at week 5 of flower.
A couple seeds I did get lucky with over the last 8 years; Black Russian by Delicious Seeds, found a keeper that we kept in rotation for a couple years. TGA's Ace of Spades was one of my all time favorites.. Still kicking myself in the ass for letting that one go. Most recent, RareDankness Ghost Train Haze 1.. A few friends and myself are really liking this one and it will remain in the stable for a while. I definitely prefer proven cuts over the searching and hunting game...lol I'm getting to old for this shit and don't have the time.
I forgot to add the shit beans,
HSO BD
Anything from Barneys or I should say everything I touched from Barneys,
Elev8 was complete Bunk except for one BlackBerry Dream
AMS's Borderliner Extreme and Chronic all bottom to mid shelf
G13's Midnite and a few others I can't recall.
Fucking list is getting too long... lol fuck beans anymore!

C'mon, Tony. Tell the truth. A lot of people were there.

People have no problem trolling and talking shit then get offended when others speak up. Sensitive thugs... Yall need more hugs... Like Jay Z said. Try to find more examples of me talking shit... You won't because I don't.
