Just get the good ones friend hell everyone I know only gets the good ones. The point is don't meny miny moe just get some seeds growing. If you don't know which to buy just ask someone that knows when you are there and buy some. It's very easy to get super seed in Amsterdam.

and also very easy to get taken advantage of
I didn't know that about Amsterdam. I thought they were a cool bunch that was honest. Soma and some of the others are the nicest people on earth. Thanks for the heads up rvansteensel.
I think I never had bad seeds in my life.
And I grow many of them...from various breeders.
From small hobby breeders to big commercial I Always found 1 plant which was worth growing them.
I dont say that I always found true "elite" but very good plants I are easy to find.
4 plants that I regret I havent cloned were.
1. Rqueenseeds Northern Light...haribo smell like pheno with bit of honey. One of the best positive care free relax high I had in life.
2. Shiva shanti XXL yild bit airy but full on Garlic onions plant smell and taste.
It was hypnotic strong indica brain high.
Not so heavy on body. But when you smoke it you can watch spinning washing machine for hours.
3.skunk kush by Sensi i found bih calyx skunk Like pheno that was smell skunky ghani with lemony bit menthol smell
It was strongest sandalwood Incense anise smell i had in life while burn.
High was uplifting classic skunk with bit kush.
But I remember whenever I smoked this lots of head Will turn around and ask ohh what you smoking. Especially on big music festivals or somethimg Like that. My friend was DJ back than.
When he lit it on music show.
Heads of festivals imidiatly come and say WTF you been smoking whole houl is smelling on dank weed.
4. Barney farm peyote cookies.
Still the best cut od cookies/sherbs/gellatos I smoked till now.
It was Like vanilla green Apple cookie.
And had light Incense from Bubba while burned.
Perfect mix of Bubba and GSC/og.
Best traits of all parrents in 1 plant.
Those were real elites...which I didnt save cuts.

I've grown a lot of Sensi seeds over the years. Some were good, some were bad. And most of the times they weren't like the strain descriptions in their catalogs. But the worst Sensi's seeds I had I have bought in the Sensi seed shop in Amsterdam. Worst germination ratios ever, plants the total opposite of what they should have been. They have them laying in the counter, uncooled, and they're probably just filled with seeds from the floor in one of their rooms. Do I still buy Sensi seeds? Yes but not from their shop in Amsterdam anymore. Another shop episode happened at the RQS shop in the Dam where they had this pack in the counter hand labelled HYpro Amnesia. 100 pcs for 80 Euros. Well, the stuff I grew was not like Amnesia regarding smell, but had a crazy punch. I gave some seeds to a friend who started to grow back then and he manged to get a spot-on Amnesia pheno which yielded like a pro but the motherfucker didn't clone the one and let this unicorn die. That was the only good pheno of 100 seeds, lol. 2 lessons learnt.
My advice for Amateurdam, don't buy seeds there. Make your homework at home and buy from reputable resellers or websites. The shops ain't good.

Got some good quality seeds at flying dutchmen back in the days but they are out of business unfortunately. Dutch Passion was also good.
Often heard bad storys about the Sensi Seeds shop and when I made a visit, it seemed they didn't store their seeds in a fridge properly. I guess thats where the poor germination ratios coming from...

My seed run starts with reading catalogues. I narrow things down to about 10 choices. Then fly to the Dam. While I am there, I will discover the main cash cropper of the time. It's easy enough to spot, as it will be in many shops. However, the name may change. It's important to see what is current, as things evolve quicker than reviews get published.
I smoke nothing else. If it's not a contender, it's just hours of the hunt lost. Realistically, I can try maybe 3 things a day. If I'm to really know their buzz, in terms such as longevity. Each really needs 6 hours of my time.
I won't find most of what I want to try. Which is fine. As it means somebody else has done the selection for me. I will nearly always end up in Barnies, as there is a good chance they can put something on the table. If you don't see what you came for, talk to them about your needs. Either they engage with you, as you are not another tourist. Or, you find they are just another shop keeper. People interested in green, from a commercial prospective, will soon let you know what the cash croppers keep offering them. If instead you are looking for something psychedelic, you are probably on your own. It's a business, not a fairy tale.
I have found a shop on Damrak that seems to have fresh beans, and a good selection. It's main focus is seeds. They know quite a bit about what's going on, indoors and out. They will post them home for you if you like, but write out the address label yourself.
Don't buy from headshops. The stock is generally old and not well kept.

Yes they did in 06 or so but meanwhile they closed it down completely. I guess Sensi is not the best at keeping motherplants lol

These are the guys off Damrak https://www.amsterdamseedcenter.com/en/
1500 to choose from. Nice shop, focused on beans. The staff are not just students. They were quickly trading info with me, regarding my the UK outdoor experiences, and the performers in the last German season. Which had been a poor year in both countries, with similar weather patterns favouring some of the outsiders in areas they could name, but I don't remember. A level of knowledge that shows they are friends with both customers and suppliers, and are learning all they can.
My mate barely spoke. He could hear wedding bells
