How do I find out who the good breeders are? And how do I like a comment?
A good place to start is to look at the different threads/pages right here in the seeds and strains review section and see for yourself, there are different pages here dedicated to various breeders and the posts from the growers here don't lie, at least not the pictures, LOL. The Usefull Seeds, Bohdi, Mass Medical pages are full of pictures of different strains and lots of people there will help if you are interested in a particular strain.
As for seed banks, you absolutely can't go wrong with Great Lakes Genetics or D.C. seed exchange. they are both 100% legit and all kinds of people here will vouch for them both and I can too.
And I know that for me it actually seams odd that the US would be ahead of Europe when it comes to breading but it's true at least for the most part. These newer US strains are incredible. Don't get me wrong, I have much love for all the old classics and I go back to them once in a while, but for the most part I've moved on from any of the stuff that was bred back then and nothing they have done as far as new strains have really kept up with the US strains I've grown. And it's odd for me because when I started it was completely the other way around, you had to get them from Amsterdam or the guys working on them who brought them back to work with from Amsterdam or ordered them and crossed their fingers etc.
I'd love for Europe to come back and blow us away but I don't see it happening yet. Maybe it's just really being kept tight or something, I don't know but their seed banks haven't offered anything that made me interested in a while, not once I got hooked on US genetics that's for sure.
