surprisingly good strains, add yours

Post by bigbadbillybob »

ok, well here i go again with another one.
Name a couple of strains that you have grown which have surprised you by how good they were.

I'll start
first up - pyramid seeds white widow auto. this was one of the first strains i did, years ago, i grew it in mud, orgnically, about 15 yrs ago, and scored about 3 zips per plant off it. SUrprisingly, for me anyway, it was like getting in a time capsule and transporting myself back to when i lived in Holland for a short while, Amsterdam, 1990 something, and smoking copious amounts of my then favourite strain - k2 in numerous coffee shops.it was from, i think it was homegrown fantaseeds. its a hindu kush cross white widow strain (the K2, this is), and it was perfect - strong, great buzz, lovely taste etc. the pyramid widow was very similar, similar taste and stone, was lovely stuff.

next surprise, for me was pineapple express-g13.
i smoked some street version of this yonks ago and it was shit, but thats probably because it wasnt even pineapple express.
i grew it a few years back and its a belter, lovely tasty strong weed, that keeps you high and has a great buzz. ive just dipped another one, to keep as a mother.

oh and choco mint og, it was really nice too, ask the grouse, even he liked it..... i grew 6 and half of them hermied, so, er not very stable, but bloody lovely smoke, smooth, tasty as fook and po---tent.

Next/....................????

notice these are all older strains Jimmy, same as my own choices , well apart from cmog hermie fest.

i dint know the G13 founders came from the UK, before heading to AMsterdam,
i didnt know that till 5 minutes ago, but they do some good stuff, thier superskunk was another good one. i think they are pretty under rated as a breeder.
the traditional strains have always been good, the blue venom is widow crossed with blueberry, both have been about for yonks.
same with the jack, its an oldie too. but i dont think its the same as the old jack, its no where near as potent these days.

I grew some S.A.G.E by TH seeds about 6 months back that caught me off guard a bit. It had a super enjoyable soaring sativa high. It was a real mood lifter. Smoking it with a coffee in the morning would just fill me with joy. It made listening to music super enjoyable. Great day time smoke. It was had a really solid yield too. But it was a full 10 weeks in flower.

I don't grow autos anymore. But when I did... Delicious Seeds Critical Neville Haze was hands down the best auto I came across. It finished in like 75days from seed. Massive spear like colas and a huge resin producer. The high was electric and kinda scary.

A really good AK47 is a thing of beauty. Or a 90s super skunk..,its in a baggie, stuffed in a wallet, in your pocket...you get on a bus on in a car and everyone swings to look in your direction. That 90s skunk was always ninja turtle green

ive heard that thseeds sage is a good one, produces some mondo colas too dont it?
Delicious seeds are hugely under rated, they do some great criticl crosses, thier critical yumbolt was a favourite for yonks, it pumped out big colas tooo

nice....Anyone else been surpised by a strain ?

Pineapple Express auto from barneys farm was the first ever plant I grew having smoked shitty street weed for 10 years ,
Finished in 70 days from planting the seed. Produced 5oz ( for the first plant I ever grew was gonna smacked ) and the smoke was amazing ! Tasted sweet, nice fruity after tone on the lips and the hit ........ I only smoke bongs , pipes and now vapes , so hit it in the bong after a month in jars curing ...... 2 full bowls and BOOM !!! My first whitey since I was about 17 , literally passed out lmfao
I am growing another as I write this Image
This ones fecking huge
