You should be a subcool salesman. I have changed my mind many times and I settled on Dairy Queen and Spacejill. You just threw a monkey wrench in my plans. Hmmm Agent Orange and DQ, maybe.

I am one of those people who can not handle the confusion and paranoia I get from Jack The Ripper or anything with Jacks Cleaner in it. I am finding that I am rare. I love everything that TGA Subcool produces that does NOT have Jack Cleaner in it. THAT Being said, I grew out an agent orange and it was hands down the most beatiful, orange/tangerine smelling and tasteing plant I've ever grown. The High however was WAAAY too psychadelic for me. Very colorful and made me very very paranoid, it is a very very trippy strain. I would say its a very Magical and SHamanistic high that goes into an intense mental kalidescope followed 2 hours later by a comfortable relaxation like you just dunked your head in icewater then let it sit in the sun to warm back up while still being cold. IF you like JTR high, you will LOVE the Agent Orange high despite the fact that it was waaay too trippy for me (just as my JTR was last year).

I say it like I see it. I love testing strains from seed and seeing how A) it helps me digest, and B) A high that makes me happy. Favorites are all the subcool strains that lack Jacks Cleaner in their geneology. I am aware that I'm judging the JTR genes in only 2 plants i've ever tried. One JTR female and One Agent Orange female. Both of them were way too psychadelic for my needs. I don't enjoy the highs personally, but i'm aware many many many people do.

My favorites would have to be The Flav (Which i'm growing again now hoping to find a male among 3 seeds), Vortex (I'll be growing this my next grow, damned plant limits), Querkle, Spacebomb (so good i'm growing 2 Alphakronik superbombs so I can see how well he does with it). I don't think i'll ever do a grow without at least one Subcool strain included because I know I can rely on quality bud from one seed with his stuff.

For the record I have recieved nothing free from subcool, neither does my post reward me in any other way then knowing I'm helping newbie medical growers like myself grow themselves so they don't have to suffer putting their limited energy into growing something for 3-4 months only to find it doesn't help them medically. I'm also a big fan of G13 labs Pineapple Express and Blueberry Gum (I'm curing now, the effects are medical, relaxing, and euphoric).

If you only try one TGA Subcool strian for med, i'd recommend Vortex.

I heard jacks cleaner wasn't that great however I've been interested in space queen for a while. TGA subcool has another tasty treat called Agent Orange.
Subcool has recently stopped producing Jack Cleaner because it wasn't stable enough for his liking. There was still some sick pheno's to be found, its just not for people who aren't willing to grow out a bunch of different phenos to find that extra special legendary pheno.

I think you meant Jack's Cleaner 2 is no longer being produced.
Sub hasn't made any Jack's Cleaner seeds in years since he lost the original genetics (thanks to the police).
As far as I know though, Sub was able to secure an F1 cutting of Jack's Cleaner some years later from another grower.
He's been using that JC cutting to make strains like Agent Orange, Jack the Ripper, Qleaner, and Kaboom.

I'm not a fan of Jacks Cleaners offsprings i've tried. Didn't like JTR, Didn't like Agent Orange. However Vortex and The Flav and spacebomb are my absolute favorite smokes!!! Querkle is also super great. Anything TGA Subcool creates that does't have Jacks Cleaner in it is absolutely heavenly. I will always have one or two TGA Subcool strains in every grow because of how reliably dank they are.

The reason I don't like jacks cleaner? The high is just way too powerful and psychadelic and I like to get ripped when I smoke, but I don't like taking a trip on it. I'm sure some people love that its that powerful. Not I.

That being said I really really really want to grow Black Dahlia when it is released!!!

I've only heard Rumors so it may not even be true. You know how Plushberry is Black Cherry Soda X Spacedude? Well Black Dahlia is Black Cherry Soda X Querkle.

That taste I keep hearing about BCS mixed with the fruity pebbles goodness of Querkle I think will make a smell and flavor that i've never experienced before. Sounds like it will be awesome. Something for me to grow in 2012 or 2013. I got more seeds than I can use.

if you like blunts and you like wicked potent hazey highs, you'd love haze x skunk. me? i merely ENDURE it's yucky cigar wrapper with hints of ashtray flavor for the best indoor buzz i've ever had yet, but it's 3 weeks behind JtR.

man do i hate it when breeders give great gear like this and killing fields violent names i won't buy gear over.

I'm tripped out by your opinion on the JC. I keep it in my room because of it's superior ability to relieve severe pain. The flavor is off the charts. I can understand the potency being too much for the unseasoned smoker, I would just like to put my two cents in on the JC and give it a better rep, because it has helped me through some rough times. peace

sounds like he lives up to his strict quality control rep there
