Best&Worst Barney's Farm strain review

If the genetics suck...
I've grown 5 seeds from my current breeder and only 1 female + it matches the description perfectly.

I need to grow 50 plants to find one even similar to Barney's description?
I'll stick with the breeder's I'm currently using or grow my own creations before paying for Barney's junk.

1 strain and ten females is hardly enough to be able to say barneys isnt that good ......now if u had grown 5 strains from barneys and 50 females u might have a solid point ?....just my 2 cents worth not saying I know anymore than the next bloke
50 females? for a "solid point" ? There are breeders that put nothing but decent plants out there, Barney's isn't one of them. What you say is ridiculous.
Ridiculous.

I don't have to grow 50 females to find a keeper with the breeder's I'm using now.

I don't take pictures + it was years ago.
Pictures don't show you how it tastes/smells or the potency.

Also they took 13 weeks for a strain that he claims finishes in 9 weeks.
I didn't care if any looked like the pictures he provides...

Some people like grilled cheese with Kraft Singles. Some people like grilled cheese with REAL cheese. I think I'm the latter, in both the cannabis and the grilled cheese game. Keep your processed garbage :)

Breeder's that don't produce only fem seeds or American breeders.

Only grown 1 strain(10 females) and all were mediocre + they didn't produce plants that were even similar to Barney's description.
Some threw nanner and the plants that didn't weren't worth keeping.
They were grown next to local clones that put them to shame.

Seeds came from Attitude in breeder pack so I know they were legit.
Which strain did you try? The Barneys strains I've tried so far turned out exactly like their description. Seems this is just one anecdote against another

Violator kush, when it was first released.
It was in Barney's breeder pack...sealed.

I've smoked vanilla kush/liberty haze grown by some close friends.
None were better than Blue Dream/various Og kush clones/etc. that we already grow.

Vanilla kush did have offspring that taste like vanilla + finished close to 9 weeks with harder buds.
The only thing it lacked is the most important thing, potency + very easy to build a tolerance.

Your not going to change my mind, but that's no reason you can't continue to buy his seeds.

I am waiting on some Barney's Blue Cheese right now. I had some pineapplechunk that never germinated, but otherwise, I've found Barney's to be good genetics.

I think it Is not a reason to say that Barney's are non potent weed, The many cup winner, Liberty Haze is my Favorite for the moment, with 25% THC and 1,8% CBD you could expect different buzz then with 22% THC and 0,02% CBD like the DNA stuff. Personally I would rather stuff with High CBD to help with stress/anxiety..

It's vary from seeds bank to seeds Bank, they all have their selection criteria. i remember back in 2003-2004 Sensi Seeds was worldwide #1 with their Jack Herer! Now no one talk about Sensi.

Maybe the LIberty Haze you smoked was crappy ?? For the vanilla Kush i'm agree with you it's not a big name in the weed history!

I got alot of respect for Barney's!

Blue cheese and LSD are the only strains ill try from them as they are the only ones I have heard anything good about from folks I would trust the opinions of.

I have 1 blue cheese seed. It might get popped for a soil test coming up make sure my mix isn't too hot and if it looks healthy I will let it know. The rest I am running is regs, you never know when you're going to get really really unlucky :) So maybe it will come in handy :)

I have had more than a few herm's with BF but there Critical Kush is just a fucking awesome strain ! I know people say it's not a real kush but it grows like a kush, taste like kush and yields big.
BFs Blue Cheese is also a awesome strain.

Warning Critical kush and blue cheese stink very bad.

I know he claims 25%+ THC for almost every strain he sells, but we had them tested and none were over 20%.

Vanilla was ~14% thc and Liberty was ~18%, my Violator kush was so terrible I didn't even bother having them tested.

Have you actually had yours tested for potency? or just what you read off his descriptions?

I've identified 2 different phenos in the Barney's Blue Cheese. A friend recently grew out 4 and 3 phenos were the "standard" more blueberry tasting....(I call it "standard" cause the pheno I had was also very berry, as was another medical grower's I know).
One pheno however was distinctly more cheese smelling and tasting with only a hint of the blueberry. Nugz were tighter and yeild was also higher than "berry" pheno. Great cheese taste though!! I am hoping to get it out of the 5 I have on the way.

That's the one I'm hoping for. The cheese.

Potency will change based on growing conditions right?

Edited to say that I only read claims of THC % as a potential and view a lot of them as inflated numbers.
