Wanted to start a thread about Barneys Farm Strains

*Best & Worst BF strains
*Stable strains
*Strains tendency to Hermie

Post some past experiences with barney's strains fellas and lets see what BF has to offer

I got some Libery Haze and Critical Kush from BF, Once I get them going I will be back and update how the strains are.

Should be a fun project.

Growing Critical kush, killed my pineapple chunk for being a herm. the critical kush is in a tent with 3 AOS, 1 cotton candy, 2 voids and 1 3D, it looks alright so far, not showing any signs of stress. smell is average, trichome production is average, i will have to see how well this strain yields before making a final judgement. smoke can't be bad if everything keeps going the way it is. the best plant i got from barney's farm was Red Dragon, everything else seems sub-par in comparison, that red dragon was as good as anything else i grew alongside it at the time until it was scrapped. i wish barney's farm still offered regular seeds, because that Red dragon is something i would grow again, sweet strawberry/grapefruit odor just sticks to you.

yea that was the one thing I didn't like about barneys. I have never growing fem'd seeds but I took the plunge and see what happens. Why doesn't barneys offer regular seeds anymore? Is everyone growing fem'd seeds over there in the uk or whats the deal

fems are ok so long as you stay away from breeders like barneys and greenhouse and you should be ok with the feminzed beans ime..

Got one pineapple chunk seed free, but it didn't sprout, so I have never grown barney's Farm...
I have a Reserva Privada Sour Kush going right now that is a super awesome plant, but that is neither here nor there...

I grew BF Blue Cheese 3 times, Vanilla Kush 1 time, and am currently growing Utopia Haze. The first time I grew BC I beat it up and ended up with 3 seeds. The yield was well above average for my set up. The flowers produced were quite nice. The VK was a good performer and had a really unique smell that I have never encountered before. The UH was touch and go in the beginning but has come back in a big way. It is twice the size of everything else in my tent. I keep having to tie it down because the main cola keeps hitting the light.

Barnies Blue Cheese is probably the most stable he as and most reliable.

Mine take a kicking, never ad any herm issues. The flavour of my pheno is sour berries on your pallet but cheesey dank smell to it not far of the original clone (much better than Dinafems, B Buddahs Cheese).


Ive smoked but not grown out the red diesel, and it was pretty desent, not top notch but desent. Better than anything you would get from Nirvana put it that way

Ive grown, Vanilla Kush, Blue Cheese, Acapulco Gold, and currently I have a Pineapple Chunk growing in the garden.
From what ive learned, Tangerine Dream is really nice, but its not stabalized so you kinda have to luck out to get the good phenotype.

Overall I like Barney's Farm and next chance I get im going to grow some Dr. Grinspoon. I heard it was the bees knees if you like sativas.

its all marketing you see all these people here that bought them just imagine how many people in the world buy their seeds they have a bunch of cup winners so people want them fem or not but fems make sure you don't copy there strains so you must come back cause if you buy 50 regs you can breed a copy close to what they sell and have hundreds of seeds.

why would barneys stop selling regular seeds if their fem'd seeds are junk? seems crazy

I have grown only 2 BF seeds.

Top Dawg feminized=First time tried 12/12 from seed. Shit was mad leafy and barely any trichs. It seemed like it stopped growing and when all my other strains grown with a regular photoperiod were harvested I put the plant in a little box with some cfl light. One time I went to check on it and pulled a bud away from the stem and it was all moldy. I am not sure if it happened before the box or after, but could explain why the pplant stopped growing. Also, I wasn't sure if the 12/12 photoperiod had anything to do with the poor results, but the strain is specifically recommended for 12/12 from seed. Regardless, I have stayed away from the seeds ever since and there was absolutely nothing that impressed me about it.

Blue Cheese feminized= The plant is very much like the description. I was expecting a tall plant based on the sativa leaf structure but it stayed very short. I overfertilized it and had some other problems that were my fault so it's hard to evaluate it. The buds are very dense. I thought I'd get an ounce but it was 2. Very respectable based on the size and the issues I had with it. The buds smell of blueberries and creme and has a heavy lethargic indica stone. I thought it was cheese x BB but it's the big buddha cheese which has much more indica in it. I wanted a more sativa hybrid, but anyways I've seen some good grows of it.

Grinspoon is nothing but a mutant. I've seen a Neville's Haze look exactly like it; and someone over at the MNS forums saw the same effect born out of an Alaskan Ice plant. A real shitty plant to grow. POTENT, yes, but not your ideal garden variety, especially when cloning it. And that pic of Grinspoon supposedly is not Barney's.

read more about it on this page:
http://www.mrnice.nl/forum/5-strain-base/3625-barneys-farm-dr-grinspoon-4.html

You want a sativa, ACE would be your number 1 vendor for the real deal psychedelic sativa high with ZERO body. Just get the Haze/Thai crosses from them.

My opinion, as shitty as it is, is that Barney knows how to market his shit, he's just not a top notch breeder. But I have seen a lot worse than his and he has some decent strains.

I meant Derry, not "Barney" lol.

While I will never run Tangerine Dream again, I dont regret growing it. Nice learning experience.

Is it more barneys strains being crappy that people don't like or just a tendency to turn herm? I was looking up seeds and saw BF won the cup and thought what the hell I'll try liberty haze haha,I thought they would be a little better than the feedback im getting from everyone. Bummer but to late,Im gonna grow em and see
