SOMA seeds used to have a line called ,“Lavender.” Over 100$ for a pack in '06, and I was trying to get some good beans for foundation of my breeding temple. I got itchy throat and that was enough for me. Then my psycho semantics put me off the whole breeder catalog. Like some jilted lover or something. “Naw honey, stay away from them beans, they gon break yo heart…”
DJ Short has been around a while. You should look him up. I appreciated his dedication to crafting Blueberry, and the other strains that followed. I am not saying he is the end all be all. And some of the strains are low yielders. But I look at his offerings as small, boutique batches for my personal pleasure only. Like letting relatives use the good china,or removing the plastic off the sofa for visitors.
He made a CoCo Kush that was straight nestle quik chocolate smell.
I used his FLO for many breeding projects. I also made many a grape krush hybrid.
Considering how much I love BLUE DREAM, he will always be cool with me.
I have Vanillaluna,F-13,Coco Kush, True Blueberry, Flo and back in 06/07 I already started pollen-chucking and making seeds. I have Blubonic and C4 also.
He has offered many different strains since then,but I am still stuck in the 8-track player past.
Wait what?!?! Blasphemy!!! Lmao DJ Short is a legend tho bro. One of the Blueberry creators. I grew a Harliqueen by his seed company… AMAZEBALLS. Vanilla Cherry Coke flavored. And some fresh off work, 2 puffs and screw it weed.
Perfectly stated. While he does have some ‘cash crop’ level yields… most the good ones were either low yield or impossible to breed with… ive heard horror stories about tryna self those keeper blueberry phenos lol.
Lavender is one ive heard a few holy grail stories about. Funny thing is it normally never has Lavender terps. No idea where the name came from tbh. But its a history book of new strains kinda strain
Its all good just depends on who grows it. I can grow some sativas that will put you on the couch. Just have to let it ripen longer [lots of amber] requires patients.
Least favorite anything autoflower. Not saying some people can’t grow some good autoflower but most can’t or don’t. In my experience.
Second reason. Wife has neuropathy and all she has tried has left her in pain. A lot of friends grow it and say my photoperiod is to much for them to handle.
One example blue dream auto and blue dream photo. She can tell from blind smoke one is not right from the pain.
Hehehehe I’d have heard of him but in all honesty I had no idea it was to do with seeds does anyone watch Mr Canucks on YouTube? I wanna try the seeds that dude gets! I can’t remember the company though but I’m going through some videos to find out now
@PurpNGold74 robin hood seeds is who I’m thinking of! Have anyone had experience with them? Some of their strains and the flowers come out looking INSANE
My new favorite breeders are Bodhi (wicked dude! Top 1 bar none). And Dr D (Magic Spirit Seeds I believe).
Some solid companies are Bomb Seeds (my original just starting fav) G13 Labs (pretty dope smoke) and InHouse and Dark Horse. Both the last two are some of the most expensive seeds ive bought but the strains are always beyond sticky and smoke like a champ
I bought some Thin Mint Cookies before I started growing at a dispensary and it tasted like toothpaste crossed with Kool cigarettes. Never again,it’s the only strain I’ve ever smoked that I couldn’t stand.Yuuuck…
Berry Bomb was my first harvest. It was fantastic (albeit low yielding). The next grow yielded about 4 oz but it smoked like dirt. No trich production at all.
That was I think round 3. I had a couple stragglers I didnt really push. One grew absolutelt BEAUTIFULLY. Like textbook cross shape to the branching, thick colas. Just no trichomes. And I had decent lights and knew what I was doing (relatively). Just smoked terrible tasting and nonexistent high. Would grow again. Just bad vibes then.
The other I cant even really remember (not a good thing). But that first? Grew it with cfls. 4 to be exact inside a fishtank. Didnt know squat so it suffered horribly. Some of the finest sativa smoke ive ever choked. And I dont like heavy tivas lol
You grew inside a fish tank?? I’ve never seen that before! I have heard of people using fish tank water to water their plants though surely that can’t be great for them?
I may try a couple more bomb seeds in the future once gotten through all these FastBuds seeds
FastBuds isnt too bad a company. Got them beat by popularity lol.
But the fish tank had no water. Hindsight it was a humidity high stuff mess of a grow. But i learnd ‘anyone can grow pot’ but ‘it takes work to grow fire’
I’m loving FastBuds atm, them as team are a great bunch of people giving alot back to their community, won quite a few awards at spannabis and on growdiaries aswell, can’t fault them as of yet, I’ve heard some good things about ripper seeds also, but never tried anything from them
I was impressed with the dj short too. The blueberry could really take the rain. It had rain for a month without bud rot. Flo was too slow for me outdoor.
I had a jillybean pheno that tasted tingly on my lips like menthol. Terrible taste and headache. Mentholated jillybean was a fail.
I was really impressed with irie genetics. The strawberry starburst and cream were real winners for me last season. I also tried dj short’s son’s seeds. He goes by second generation genetics. His Oregon cutthroat, key lime chem, and pursuit of happiness were all great plants that finished outside in their trial pots last year.
