Yes there are much better breeders out there but for the money that you pay for there seeds you get some pretty dank weed I would say above nirvana and a lot of the other cheaper seedbanks out there. Bluedream in general isn't all that powerful of a smoke anyways it's more of a all day smoke that puts your head in a good state but in no means a couchlock weed I smoked the bluedream from Cali and that's my thoughts on it. Now about them selling hyped names I think you might be wrong on that humboldt breeders and grew are actually from Cali so just because they S1 there gear doesn't mean anything and they have been selling reg beans for a while now. Also IMO that a lot of people that have smoked and grew there bluedream says that it is pretty damn close to the real deal. I'll find out for myself soon as I have a bluedream clone of there's going right now but still vegging it. A lot of the market now a days in fem seeds that's what a lot of people want its easier because you don't have to waste time money or electric or extra dirt on males. Well I have never saw a complaint about humboldts seeds in strength yield and vigor. Ya there are better breeders out there but IMO I have popped 100 dollar packs of seeds only to be disappointed so price doesn't always mean quality and every humboldt seed I have in veg have been very vigorous to say the least and grow pretty easy I mean until I find something that disappoints me with there strains I'll keep buying there strains I have three of there genetics going now bluedream,bubba and sour most were freebies except I bought the bluedream after reading good reviews about it and next I am buying there sour blueberry to run because I have heard a lot of great reviews about it. Also IMO in they just sell hype names I think they would be pumping out new strains monthly like a lot of breeders.
 
hi there....I just popped 5 of their Blue Dream...all are above soil within 48 hrs of dropping in water to soak for 20ish hours....good start

HSO is the worst kind of seed company, I took a look thru their catalog and now they have all these clone only strains magically in regular seed form.

They really prey on suckers while dropping a deuce in the gene pool.

I did their Blue Dream and everyone loved it. Their Trainwreck was excellent too.

Got 2 outta 2 for my experience. But I am not a strict connoisseur...if it is good smoke I don't care the pedigree

That said....I won't be going deeper in their offering...just too many other breeders out there who deserve their shot in my garden too.
 
The blue dream is nice smoke,yield and smell, but its not very strong at all. OG was just boring and served no purpose so I trashed her. The pineapple skunk didn't yield at all, but looks damn pretty. Sad to say that there wasn't one plant that I thought "this is something I'd like to keep for a long time". I need to feel that way about every strain I grow or else I don't see a point in doing something more than twice. At least I give them a second chance.

I think it's funny that a lot of people come in to hate on humboldt seeds and probably never even grew one of there strains. It makes me laugh and just a FYI the dudes are from humboldt county. Also how many other seed company's are trying to cash in on clone only strains?? Also what clone only strains do they claim to have I am very interested in this one what the headband? Well who doesn't sell a cut of headband nowadays? Or emdog is that supposed to be a knock off to?? Well I think it is pretty funny that people can bash a company that sells pretty solid genetics even there freebies are good strains. Also just because there cut might be a little different then the next breeders cut doesn't mean a thing in my eyes it's called pheno selection. In my eyes the worst kind of seed sellers out there are the ones that Cross other people's work and sell the strains for 80 to 100 bucks also fuck all the elites lets be real they were all made by hermie fucking plants so who do we blame/credit for the genetics?? Just kinda aggravates me that someone who leaves all fell off there plants found no keepers ummm duh they were probably not potent or good at all because all the stress you put them through. Also for other people that probably never grew there gear shouldn't even chime in with a comment because they so call rip off elites or clone onlys give me a fucking break most clone onlys are from a pheno of someone else's hard work. To much fucking greed in the seed business today maybe more seedbanks should sell seeds for 30 bucks a pack because most of them put no work into the strain anyways and my humboldt seed plants are some great lookin plants and after I harvest them then if my opinion changes on there genectics after I smoke them then I'll change my opinion about them but until then there gear and every review that I have saw that someone has posted about there gear has been truly positive and all my plants are very vigerous and kicking ass in flower right now and my outdoor humboldt seeds are doing great.

It makes you wonder how we will classify strains in 10-15 years. As more people smoke, more grow, more breed, more cross, more trade, eventually these "purebreeds" (that aren't really pure anyways) will all be mixed bag.

I've run and cloned the HSO blue dream. Yeah, we get it, it's not the clone only BD. But prove to me that the clone you got from some brah's basement that he got from some shady dispensary, that they relabeled and marked up, is the "real deal." At some point we're really just hunting for basic characteristics amd type of high/intervention more than true genetic profile, right?

Sure, I hope my Kali Mist has that pre-95 headiness...that my sour has "that" diesel aroma...That my IBG yields as expected. And if it doesn't? I'll try something else! I won't pay $140 for a half dozen seeds, but I can't afford to be such a harsh critic either.

Can anyone do a smoke report on the Blue Dream fems? Is it anything like the cuts? Hazey/sandalwood, dryer sheets and blue flavors and smells? I have two of these as freebies as well and after seeing someone else's grow on another forum I'm thinking of bumping them up in the rotation.

It's nothing like the cut(s). The only thing about the blue dream S1 I ran that was similar to the clones I've had in the past was the leaf shape. Overall plant structure, smell, taste and effect were different. I felt the S1 had more raw potency but less of a euphoric high. Strong but dull. Won't grow any HSO seeds again but I'm sure there are better S1 phenos to be found.

Exactly. People come quick to defend or hate on these guys, but in reality the people who have grown there stuff feel pretty meh about the whole thing.

Some of you need not freak out because you're in the middle of an HSO grow. The plants will work fine for you. However, you will probably not keep them.

I'll tell ya what I'll do a smoke report soon of there bluedream,bubba, and sour#2 and for the price u cannot go wrong the plants aren't needy at all compared to some 100.00 packs I have grown out there seeds grow with ease and no nanners to speak of plus very very vigerous not to say that people won't grow them again is kinda unfair just because the seed biz pumps out new strains every week and I am a seed junkie and buy seeds constantly so if there weren't so many options to grow I would probably only grow the humboldt seeds strains I am growing now and can say a all around expirerience with there strains have been amazing so simple to grow not needie plants at all basically grow themselves there 30 dollar packs I can vouch are better than a lot of more exspensive shit that I have grown I actually am making f2 seeds of there bubba if you look in my karma journal I posted a pic of the bubba in veg under a led a great plant stinky and is in flower now and just pollinated it will post smoke test of everything once finished. Peace mike

Pineapple skunk was very vigorous and easy to grow. It stank to high heaven of fruity skunk during flower. Too much so really. Everytime I opened the tent the smell was like a wave and a powerful one at that!

Alas didn't get a fruity/pineapple pheno. It was pretty much plain old skunk which still did its job nicely but no thanks for a repeat.

OG Kush ended up being a nice smoke although the yield was awful (down to me).

Some of the other strains look interesting. Blue Dream gets good write ups, Em-Dog gets good hype, and headband is a smoke I had a long, long time ago that I'd love to have around again.

So far I'd not repeat purchase anything besides the OG Kush but that would only be to see if I could get it right the second time out. I did like the smoke though. Strong, cloudy high, hunger then tiredness. Nice 2 hour ride. It smelled a bit like Lemon cleaner when ground.
If you investigate further you may find a photo album with bud shots....

I agree, and I shouldn't post so late into my night. I guess I was trying to speculate more about the future of actual strain purity and identification than defend HSO.

Ironically, I'm on a employer-forced ßmoking hiatus and sitting on a bunch of HSO nugs. My luck, it probably sucks! And to my point, if it doesn't do it for me, I'll diversify. There's about a million options out there today.

ive got a single HSO blue dream from seed going alongside 3 BD cuts i got. they look similar thus far. its the back right corner and its much younger than the clones and almost caught up to them they have all been heavily supercropped and are in a 4x4 with a 1k hortilux beaming down on them. they are only on day 4 so who knows what will happen.

They are not from Humboldt county, they are from the UK and cashing in on the name. One sign they're not Americans, they spell organization, "organisation". And their strains suck. I saw og and bd, they both got thrown away. The og was really terrible. Nothing like any og I had before.
I think it's funny that a lot of people come in to hate on humboldt seeds and probably never even grew one of there strains. It makes me laugh and just a FYI the dudes are from humboldt county.

That's funny they are from Uk ya maybe they moved to Uk why don't you do your research there partner and you will find out that they are actually from humboldt county. Also are you gonna try next to tell me that emerald triangle seeds is also from Uk? Most people move to the Uk one because they are aloud to sells seeds. The U.S is not totally on board with the medical scene even selling seeds are illegal still so why wouldn't most people move where the law permits them to sell seeds still and not have to worry about it there buddy? Also why don't u contact humboldt seeds and find out where they are really from?? I bet if you do u are gonna piss your pants to actually find out that most of there growers/breeders grew up and lived for many years. Might wanna research a little before you chime in also show me some of your og pics Or your bluedream pics from your grow my guess probably not probably bought some bootleg ass clones from a dispensary and they said they were humboldts gear. Also just a FYI bluedream isn't really all that great or a smoke or strong to say the least I have smoked the clone only bluedream and to say the least I wasnt impressed at all so should I knock it and say its shit and people should throw it in the garbage?? Actually a lot of sativa strains suck balls but that is my preference because I love smoking indica dominant strains also look up people's reviews and grow reports of people's bluedream grows I haven't saw one negative report yet. Bluedream IMO is a cash croppers dream that's why people like it because it yields like a monster and the smoke is decent at best.
