Skunk Red Hair of late 80's (absolutely the worst) and -let's say- half pack of DP Blue Moonshine. The other half were pretty potent. No middle ways.
About germination...it often depends on shops, their fridges and how much they wanna sell old stocks like they were fresh.

My worst strains so far:

Mississippi Mud(JLP)-have 3 more packs, perhaps I will take another run? Saw so much good reports and all my 8 females suck

Legends Ultimate Indica(Fed. Seeds): germrate2/15, got two nice looking girls, but both did smell terrible

Ruderalis Indica(Sensi seeds), not worth to talk about it

Everything else I grew until today, was definitly better than those 3!

White Widow was my worst. Poor yield, smelt bad, tasted bad, high was good (not worth it considering the rest) and way to long of flower. Hard to control height as well.

Forgot, hermi'ed as well.

Hiya Mr Celsius od it was not my experence with the widow i found it excelent in both smoke and smell taste infact.

I think it may depend on whos widow you grow but saying that diffrent people like diffrent things.



I find it supriseing reading threw this thread some label a strain bad becouse of poor germ rates.

You need to first run a strain with desent numbers grow the plants out to matureity harvest dry and cure then sample each to really say yes or no on it if you dont you your self could be over looking a true gen and something you will value for years and years.

Thats hybrids for you some are good some are not some are outstanding and special.

I had a great 2 years running Widow. Who's widow did you grow?

I would have to agree, you should not judge a strain by germ rate at all. That's all dependant on the storage not the strain

Sorry Dailyhempy, but if they're gonna sell seeds in packs of 10 then there should be at least one good representation of the breed in that pack. Either that or on the description they should say "must buy and germinate 3 or 4 packs in order to find the one decent pheno." LOL !! I think that any seeds I buy should germinate well also. I had a pack of ssh and a pack of critical mass that I couldn't get 1 seed out of either pack to germinate. I know people like mr nice stuff, but I am really hesitant to try them again.

Agree with you about the white widow though.

A cut from the club, so I have no idea who's white widow it was... but it definitely looked and grew like widow.

Green house's Trainwreck. i decided to grow some to maybe incorporate into my own trainwreck. all 10 seeds germed and grew. got 9 still in the ground. i had one that budded early. it sucked. no smell, no crystals. i gave it away. that was with over a 30 day cure. still sucked

Maybe it sucked cause it wasnt from Sensi Seeds.

robbiedublu yes any seed strain should have plants resemble the strain line being offerd in a pack you should also be able to germ the seeds your paying for if you cant then you should contact seller or breeder you got them from for replacement and shanti stands behind his work and does just that.

I know there was a germ prob with a few lines erly this year i think but shanti posted it and told who ever had probs to contact him how many do that few.

I germinated seeds i got from shanti dateing back to 1996 and had over 60% germination and i have germinated seed from 2002 to the more fresh seed made in 2007 and had 90% to 100% germ rates.

A seed companys only as good as the strains they offer and there customer support that is offerd and mr nice has both.

Sensi Star is from Paradise seeds not sensi seeds.

I knew this would be a good thread. Everyone talks about how great this or that is and I just wanna know what to stay away from.. Thanks for all your help.

I tried to get some classic BOG genetics from BC Bud Depot. I swear I got 10 random seeds from floor sweepings.
