Can you name some breeders that you can find winner phenos in almost every pack?

over the course of my growing for about 3 years now, id fair to say the 4-5 times i grew out Greenhouse Seeds "Super Lemon Haze" I am YET to be dissapointed by anything. That and DNA genetics/Reserve Privada has a pretty good track record with me.

Does anyone has first hand experience with mr Nice seeds?
Everybody says his strains are legendary, but he ripped me on 1 of his auctions.
B.T.W. I can't imagine how Neville Haze can be better than CBG Destroyer or Ace Panama, Golden Tiger, ...
But of course; if I'm wrong I'd be very glad if someone tells me.

After spending thousands of dollars and euros on seed I've come to the conclusion that keepers are indeed rare. I try to cross the few keepers with other keepers and go from there. You are your own Best breeder.

I disagree. While it's nice to do your own thing, you better have an idea of what you're trying to do and how to get there or you're going to find yourself traveling down the wrong road.

Well said.

I much prefer the hybrids I have made over the original parents.

You know what you like and will select accordingly.

Though every OG Raskal WiFi plant has been exceptional. The hardest part was deciding which ones to get rid of.
 
out of the few packs of nevils seeds ive tried, not even the whole packs yet,
I have found very good plants.

NH35 x kanga I saw a couple good plants, was planning on keeping one of them. still have half a pack left.

jims Hawaiian NH mix I found a very nice very fast plant I would have kept, and still have half a pack to go.

the nh21 x mms I had two going and they were almost halfway, but they weren't very exciting. now there are 3 more starting to flower, 3 weeks in, and I think im starting to smell that smell tha ive been searching for for the last couple years. sweet citrus fuel type of thing. very excited to see how much more it comes out. wont be seeing them for another month so when I do I expect good things.
sad to think Im not cloning anything at the moment, what a tease it will be.
but half the trouble is finding seeds worth running, now that ive found them itll just take some time...

green house- super lemon haze
mr nice -super silver haze
Ace - malawi

If you consider the price : Ace Malawi 50 euro and Mr Nice super silver haze 120 euro, ace would be a better bet even if their packs contain 10 seeds and Mr Nice's packs contain 15 seeds I'd still go for Ace.

agree..but when i started to grow i didnt know much and

i grew only dutch hybrids which is skunk the most..
the topic has a tittle and i had a clearly post..nothing about the prices..anyway agree..:tiphat:

only thing I've run from them is a pack of grand doggy purp was very impressed though out of 5 fem beans got some nice phenos. You really cant go wrong with Bog,archive, Ace, csg has some nice stuff as well from my experience with the Gdoggyp and the grow reports ive seen.

Yeah, at some point I'd like to grab some BOG gear for sure...

Back in the day I would start with a 100 to search for male and female parent stock. Now it seems like most well repputed breeders are delivering good examples in 10-20 seeds. I still feel 50 to a 100 to see what's there. Can't pop 3 beans and give any opinion on the strain or the breeder imHo.

That reminds me of Vic High. He would do some grow-outs at BCGA that were fun to watch. 100 samples of every plant, growing regular plants, crosses like G13 x Cinderella 99 (to make Killer Queen.)

On the other hand, I have met wealthy & accomplished growers in California that started 4 new seeds when evaluating a strain (admittedly they were operating in an environment of plant count restrictions.)


I think with the Fem seeds things change a bit.

Some of the Fem plants I've gotten recently - Green Crack, Dynachem from Dinafem - have been great & vigorous examples of the seed growers craft. And that's just one seed.

I'm about to try CSG out for the first time in a my next run. I chose his new Lemon n Lime Jones (Casey Jones x SSSDH) in hopes of finding a super powerful sativa hybrid.

Sweet! I picked up Sour Hazy Jones a couple months ago, haven't been able to drop any yet-but am hoping to soon!
I have a Cheese N' Chaze about a week from chop, and a SSSDH about three weeks into flower. I am excited about them both!

Ive had the best luck with SLH and Sour Bubble. Both great balanced highs too. The SLH less couch lock, much less actually lol.

For a great chance at premium fire, I would look at:

Bodhi's Sunshine Daydream or other Appy crosses.

Greenhouse's Super Lemon Haze(their only fantasic smoke - it's wicked)

DNA/RP's Kosher Kush and it's crosses.

Sin City's Blue Power and it's crosses.

I've heard good things about Karma;s Biker Kush and Snowhigh's strains but haven't tried them yet. I have Snowhigh's Golden Lei two weeks into flower and it looks like it's going to be a great plant. They promise electric, overpowering psychedelic effects on the GL and I'm hoping it delivers.
keep controlled the golden lei: with 3 females, 3 erma....i hope to make a bit better in the outdoor with the last 5...

for the breeders chart my vote it's for :
bodhi
top dawg
..2° position for:
dinasty
pisces
illuminati
archive
immortal flower
303 seeds
..3°:
alphakronik
rare dankness
trichome jungle/sonic seeds
motarebel
gage green
cannaventure
