all valid points.
i guess i back them so big since ive gotten all winners from them which is rare for me. usually all breeders have issues w/ quality control. its the nature of the biz i guess. most of it is skill but some luck is also involved.
i plan on trying them until i get a loser.
reserva privada is breeder thats given me nothing but good stuff but i have only tried a couple strains so i cant really make that claim yet and feel confident about it.
i do like paradise...their white berry is super stable.
heres a video to a grow i did of it a couple years ago:

i personally like it. my gf swears by it for when she has cramps. out of everything ive ever given her she said it helped most. probably wont help most growers on here (majority are male) but tell ur gf's/wives. they'll love you lol.
i liked the fact that paradise didnt lie in their description. thats one thing that pisses me off (when i read a great description and get a crap plant/bud that doesnt measure up at all or look anything like the pics). paradise delivered. good yields...smoke that can work for daytime and nighttime use. stable plants (these were bought pick and mix and fairly consistent in appearance...height etc.)
not the most potent strain but it does the job nicely as its certainly not mids.
ive had luck with some companies that others bash like dutch passion. i like their master kush and strawberry cough.
GHS = never worked for me...i got one strain from them that was decent so it looks amazing compared to the endless list of shit ones ive tried lol. the great white shark is what im referring to. it wasnt half bad for a ghs bean lol.
i try to mix it up. this past order on the tude i tried all new breeders i havent tried before (delicious, sweet seeds, ceres) except for the purple wreck from reserva. i grew it as my first grow and it didnt turn out well on my end but the bud was actually good even though i overwatered...tortured and abused it so im curious to see what happens when i "do it right" and decided it was the perfect choice to close out my order.
im always looking for new breeders/strains lol
