What is the worst strain you have smoked or grown?

Think Different hands down.

Cali Conn-Green Crack, if it germinated, it was a hermi. The same with Barney's Critical Kush! My Pineapple chunk was atleast potent. I am embarrassed to be talking about Barney's lol.
One that I am most disappointed in would be TGA's Vortex. My cousin was asking me about it, and it was 2012 when I ran it the first time. I bought another pack last year, and it was nothing like the 1st!!! I have to tell people that it is no good anymore, something happened???
My favorite seed is probably Reserva's Kandy kush. I just ordered 2 more packs!!!
I really enjoyed and am enjoying the taste of sour secret atm would like to try kandy kush seeing as it is one of the fewer DNa/RP offered as regular. Did you find it has more kus
I was able to be a judge this last year for a smaller competition but I was really appalled at how the whole process was put together. They honestly don't give you enough time between picking up your judges bag and the actual submittal date. I think I had 6 days to try over 31 samples.

The cup winning entry was decent in my opinion but it is really hard for me to tell how these folks picked. I honestly think it is more of a favoritism thing, people in the judges quarters seemed to know each other and some even discussed about which ones they entered so even though they were all labeled with celebrity pictures it isn't hard to tell which one is purple trainwreck from durban poison.

Competitions like these aren't really objective at all.

TLDR: Do not get hyped up about who wins, you will most likely never encounter the winning cut and if you do find seeds for sale you are basically buying a lottery ticket. ( Just take a look how many strains win cups and then within 6-8 months they got seed packs all over, how much testing can you possibly do )
so say I was thinking of grabing some karma og which comes in reg packs if I find decent enough pheno female and cross it with a strong male from the pack and then make a selection out of those seeds you think the chances of winning the lottery went up or do I have a lotta bs to look forward too

My take on this is, there might be some straight fire in there and karmas gear has proven itself many times so I would think the chances of finding your own special one would be decent depending on how picky you are. The people that I know winning cups are using either clone onlys or they are growing out hundreds of these seeds and selecting that one special something.

I take my chances all the time, sometimes it isn't worth it and other times it is amazing. Either way I still feel like it is grabbing a scratcher and hoping for a miracle.

My favorite Kandy kush is very skunky, grows in a totem pole, and it taste piney and very OG! If you like the skunky-og smell, you will def like this one! I like it because it is has the most odor that I have came across.
I end up smoking it for the flavor, it is easy to over-do it and take a nap lol

And once you find that special one cross it with the father you started with hopefully giving more special ones lol it'd be nice to imbreed your own strain

I think that you could grab a single Fem seed of Kandy. Last time that I got a pack, 4 of 6 were very similar, keepers!
Sorry, I am waiting on my order to come in and I am excited. I am always running too many seeds looking for the perfect one. After searching for 4yrs, I am ready to settle down with Kandy for a while.
I have a couple of other OG's that I will keep, but I am most excited for Kandy. My wife thinks that Starkiller OG is too potent. I got a pack of Regular KK so I could have a look at some males.
Sorry, I got the last pack of Regular from Choice last week!

aint that the truth,,, you can spend a thousand dollars on seeds from 1 certain strain,,plant them all and not get ONE that even comes close to resembling the write up and picture of that strain!!! i feel that seeds should be stabilized more often so you can get what you pay for...not be on a hundred seed phenio hunt to find that one that you thought you wer buying to begin with!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
ive found only 1 true strain that fully resembled its cup winning profile, that being sweet tooth #3 from 2001, quick mature heavily budded very potent and goodlookin, its cured buds were exactly the same as pictured in the high times mags pics for that years cannabis cup winners, it also made for an excellent breeding stud, there was much dismay in the camp when spice of life discontinued that strain

Tried any grand daddy purp?
The GDP that I had made me grumpy and shit. I felt like a bear getting ready for hibernation, all hungry and sleepy... I really dont smoke much purp for that reason. Personal preference. It was purp and potent
I have not ran it myself, but a couple of years ago I am sure that I had Ken Estes's GDP from someone else

That hibernation is what I'm looking for, helps treat my insomnia I heard good things from ken Estes in past readings but of late I've heard he got raided or lost most of his gdp stock not sure if it's true but I'd love to pull trigger on a pack of gdp but 125 a pack need to know that might get a least something worth keeping or seeding

ive still got some crosses from that original ST#3 from 2001 but also another point of view is there are many as good if not better strains available today, just read what the experienced growers here on RIU keep on growing & banks like bodhi - sincity - rare dankness - dynasty - exotic genetics etc are always at the cutting edge of weed evolution, if you get beans from those banks your assured of having topshelf gear at the end of the day
