[MEGA] Strain Discussion- 3rd Backcross *ALL STRAIN TALK IN HERE*

Think my weed has definitely some Northern Lights flavor in it.

Now to know what strain it's crossed with, that's difficult.

btw, the site I posted is good too ;)
 
No prices treefa, thanks.

also, A_E knows the BL law well. Sorry, but do not link off to sites that sell any sort of merchandise. Thanks.
 
So I'm thinking of trying the original real skunk #1 from Shantibaba & Mr. Nice, now called 'Shit'. You get an incredible 18 seeds in a pack for half a quarter the price of most other reasonable seeds, or even less. It was the original strain that won all those awards in the 80s and is a cracking strain. It can be grown indoors or out (preferrably in a greenhouse) and flowers in about 9 weeks or less. I would flower it for longer than normal to give a higher CBD content and control anxiety and paranoia issues.

I'd also love to try the original Sensi Seeds Jack Herer, but it's just so damn expensive. Still, might be worth it. Unfortunately I will have to grow these outside of where I live as it'd be too risky otherwise. I plan to find an outstanding phenotype and repeatedly backross the progeny with the F1 cross (cube the clone) to be able to save seed each year and grow as many plants outdoors as I need, rather than relying on buying the expensive seeds from the breeder.

Yet another strain that I'd love to try is NL5 x Haze as well.
 
Unfortunately a lot of breeders are selling skunk #1 when it's nothing like the real thing. They literally just label hacks as the original strain that won all those awards originally. Fortunately Mr Nice seeds still sells the original genetisc at a reasonable price. Their strains really are the real deal.

I'm also thinking of trying The Real Seed Co seeds, since they sell genuine landrace strains that haven't been defiled by the dutch. Their strains are perfect for forming the basis of a breeding project to produce something truly unique that's different from the homogenous crap that's dominating the market at the moment. Their strains are real oldschool genetics unlike anything you've probably tried before. The great thing about the strains is just like the farmers from the strains' native countries, you can save seed from the best plant from that year for the following year and hence you can become completely self sufficient and you won't have to rely on keeping a clone line alive. The only issue is that until some breeding has been done (really easy if you know what you're doing and is not hard to learn), the strains are tricky to grow indoors, but not impossible. I really like the ethics of the RSC and tbh this is what mainly attracts me to them. Unfortunately there's too much deception within the world of breeding, such as when breeders for example will cross two unrelated hybrids to create a multi-way hybrid or cross and call it an F1 hybrid/cross. Technically this is correct terminology according to the strict definition (or one interpretation of it) but the grower won't get anything like what they expect from an F1 hybrid, as more of the ancestral traits will start to be expressed, making the plants too variable and lacking in uniformity to be of much use to someone wanting a decent crop. Probably only one in 30 seeds that germinate would be worth keeping.

Hey i was lookin through this thread and i might of overlooked this, but can anybody tell me about this "elephant bud" strain? I have heard rumors of the THC content being like 33%! Is this really around?
 
^ I seriously doubt that. Do you think if I bred a strain and told everyone it was 35% THC I would get more sales? Unfortunately I probably would. THC percentages don't usually go over 15% and sometimes up to 20% or thereabouts in extremely rare circumstances, but 33% is probably not correct or realistic. I think it's probably just been made up in all liklihood. Do you really think the breeders actually pay to have the THC percentage of all their strains tested? Even if they did it would be pointless because everyone else is lying.

edit: just realized you said 'rumours'. Says it all really...

Yes I did Thai weed, Jamaican, Accapulco Gold (Mexican, superb), South African and a lot of other african grasses. I even tried some Himalayan weed in Holland once.
 
Yeah i was seriously doubting what I have been hearing but I wasnt too sure. 33% seems pretty high. Thanks man.

Strains can hit 30% THC but it's rare - nature vs. nurture plays a part. That seed company however is faker than my comedic value. And gas chromatography tests aren't rare a lot of companies and even dispensaries get them.

I'm not saying it's not possible, but 30% THC is so rare you probably wouldn't ever come accross such a weed specimin in your life.

As for GC/MS tests, I think they are quite rarely done throughout the industry. Because of the inherent dishonesty it's so much easier to lie about your THC percentage (like how Greenhouse Seed Co does). However I think it will become less common at some point in the future as the cannabis industry becomes more 'legitimate'. But yes, there are some breeders that pay to have it done. Separating these breeders from the ones that lie can be difficult though, unfortunately.

No problem. Even if you're strain naturally has a high percentage, it's only probably 1 in hundreds of different phenotypes that would hit that sort of d-9-THC level, so for all intents and purposes you don't get that kind of level in reality. But anyway, more importantly, high d-9-THC percentages in and of itself is most definitely not what makes a strain good. I think the cannabinoid profile is far more important than potency in most cases. If you had a strain with massive amounts of d-9-THC but not much CBD or other cannabinoids it would be a terrible strain that pretty much nobody would actually enjoy smoking! This is quite ironic if you think about it IMO.

Sorry I didn't realize you had. It would more of a generalization about most people rather than you individually though.
 
Does anyone else like to buy different types of bud at the same time?

Does anyone else like to buy different strains of weed at the same time to either have separate or mixed together or one after the other?

Personally I found that buying a quarter smoking like 5gs and then buying from a different dealer the next week or the same one if he has different stuff, always helps me to remember to make awesome electric salads that make me so much higher
 
I love mixing different strains of weed with each other, not really when it comes to buying, but when all my stuff is mixed together, its good to have lots of strains.
 
I used to smoke everyday and I never liked mixing strains in the same joint/blunt/bowl or whatever. My close friend buys in bulk so he always has a variety of strains available. The last that he had was skywalker and medibud...Both kicked ass.
 
I go nuts at the dispensaries and get as many different types of kind that i can then I put them into blunts in order. like; og kush followed by purple urkle followed by super skunk and i always end it with trainwreck because thats usually how i feel after it.
 
^yea, pretty much that right there. A place by me has specials of five dollar (imagine the weedage because I know I can't write that in here) and I buy as many different kinds as I have money for, roll them up and then each time I smoke, I'm a new kinda high.
 
its probably just a made up name, but I have been smoking something that my dealer calls s5 Amnesia, he is very reliable and only sells top notch smoke. But I looked it up cannot find it anywhere. It is by far the strongest cannabis i have EVER smoked. much stronger than anything I have had in the Dam, including tangerine Dream, super lemon haze and all that potent stuff. Definite sativa buzz to it. I really don't know what it could be. Its also extremely moreish.
 
^ thats a varietal cut of Amnesia Haze it sounds like...

Elephant is another of Barneys same with the Vanilla Kush-- they have ridicules THC %'s for all their strains, which are all great that ive had.
i did have some and do now have a GrapeGod seed -grape ape x god bud- and am looking forward to that one bean... haha


ive got some -Fire OG x Ice, Island Sweet Skunk, AK47, Mr Nice, and MKUltra- plants running ATM.
one OGxIce and one ISS are males.

the AK and the OGxIce, as well as the ISS and another OGxIce i want to cross for myself, probably will get seed from this then back-X into the OGxIce again with a male of the hybrid
 
For me, I buy a q of different stuff every time I see my buddy, and I usually have at least 5 different types on me at all times, just for personal.
I do not like mixing the strains all into one joint or whatever, just because if it is good weed then I think it should be enjoyed separately.
