Yeah... My next experience after SinCity was Bodhi and then Gage. SinCity first. All I can say is I am not even keeping half an eyen on SinCity. They produce a good bean and I guess I chose badly, but i wont easily choose them over Gage. Big huge amazing difference for me is tje sheer terpene levels in Gage gear. STRONG smells and flavors, incredible bubble hash. Always. Dont want to knock SinCity but I never even remember them any more.
Ever since I have started testing for SinCity I have seen nothing but fire strains. The Oscar Goodman and Platinum Delights I grew were both fire. Oscar had keeper Phenos and I'm running the Platinum Delights pheno again. SinCity are doing some great things so retry on something else should happen I think for the few that didn't have good experience with them. Tangerine Power is unstable but there are stable phenos but Agent Orange is unstable so it's no surprises there. Give them a try again I'm sure you can find something you like
Well after running the CherryAK x Jo and Dirty Sanchez from B, i have lost all interest in OG crosses and similar pine cone bud types. Towers of Power are my new thang. Actually used to be my only types I ran, old Dutch types like Chronic and Armageddon were solid bats of dank. Seeing this but with California type terpene profiles and potency has raised the bar for my lab. Anything else must go. Some Karma gear really grabbing my attention right now... Any recommendations from SinCity would be much appreciated AJ. I wont even look at packs without a rec from somebody I trust and I feel I understand your taste and vice versa.
Well if baseball bats of dank if what you love then you will love the Oscar Goodman I tested. Nothing but bats huge dank buds everywhere. Popcorn no such thing as bottom buds were easily 2gram and up buds. Very dense very frosty and potent. Tropical mango melon buds with hints of haze and berry. Buds so big barely had to trim. Check out my Oscar Goodman journal when you have some time. Don't know if SinCity is gonna release it but I think they should. I haven't ran much from them so I can't recommend much but I know that Oscar is what your looking for maybe not flavor wise but dank huge buds she produces.
Find that Pheno of Fireballs I had. Pics in the Breeders Boutique thread. Buds are super dense. Hopefully I can get the clones to be just as fat. Was just a small plant however, i know you grow em much bigger

Good post. How does price factor in to this though? At a certain price point should we expect a better, more stable product?
GGG had packs as low as 42 bucks....and a pack as high as 200(force og)
i agree with the pricing to a point, but pollen chuckers is where its at. especially pollen chuckers with elite clones or strains. the possibility of something better than the original. there's nothing wrong with pollen chuckers. If it wasnt for pollen chuckers, there wouldnt be no cherry puff, grapestomper, white fire, GSC, etc, or with thc over 30%
i actually kind of agree its nice to get a bit of variation in the mix, you might get that super freak, you might not. a true breeding strain with the plants all turning out similar is great if your doing large production grows from seed but lets face it these days we do the production runs from clones and select those mums from the seed runs so a little variation is nice.
For sure. I enjoy digging through those packs looking for a gem.
There's definitely more vigor with the F1's. I grew out a few inbred lines recently, and while the uniformity was nice, they are really slow growers
I just happened to find a couple packs of sin's gear that I wanted to try. I definitely wouldn't put them above either bodhi or gage seeing as I have yet to run either, sin is just another option out there. I do plan on picking up some of bodhi's satsuma to run along with sin's tangerine power give kind of a side by side comparison of the two crosses. Besides, I have zero loyalty when it comes to bean sellers. They all lost a little bit of credibility with me around 2005-6ish. Now I just look at each pack as a gamble because stability is no longer a concern of most customers so few breeders will offer consistent results. Will most produce good smoke, sure, but man I don't ever remember hermies and a thousand phenotypes being the large issue they are now.
How do you think humans got to be in the billions? A lot of inbreeding. Plus, any royal family or old world money family are inbred. Inbreeding doesn't always produce retards. If IBL aren't important, then why are cats like Bodhi out searching for land race IBLs?
