People like to whine. Barney's Farm and Greenhouse are fine. I've only grow 5 times and never had a problem with any of their seeds. Some of these "expert growers" aren't the experts they think they are. I'm not saying that it's not possible to get bad seeds, but there's a lot of demonstrative evidence in the form of grow journals that seeds from those companies can produce. Some people hate "big brands", anything mainstream, or a company having the audacity to be in it for money. I don't care about any of that shit, all I want is good weed which is I have gotten when I've grown BF seeds.
Say whatever you want but Tangerine Dream sucks. It is very rare indeed to get a keeper out of Tangerine Dream seeds.

Have you grown Tangerine Dream? Or just some of the other strains from Barney's Farm?
How did the strains from Barney's compare to the strains you were growing that were not from Barney?

I can't comment on anything else from Barney's because after trying out Tangerine Dream, I havent rushed out to buy anything else.
I do have a Red Dragon in waiting, I have heard good things about it. I hope it lives up to the rep.

I've grew a few of Barneys strains with mixed results but I absolutely loved Top Dawg. I found the fruitiest smelling pheno and ran it for quite a few grows, a very tasty daytime weed and was gutted when I lost her. It never yielded huge but it was very nice. Tangerine Dream was a sort of impulse buy and ended up being an epically long grow. The plants were huge, even with a screen holding them down and although the yield and effect were great the taste was decidedly lacking. One of those had an unusually tacky kief that was a pleasure to smoke, a little squeeze and you had a gooey blob of hash. It wasn't enough to make me run it again. Most of the other Barney strains I've grew have been very tasty, Blue Cheese (probably one of the most distinctive tastes out there), LSD, Pineapple Chunk.
 
I think that there seems to be a pattern w/ the Tangerine Dream. So, as a grower, perhaps we should take great care and patience with this plant. It needs much TLC. We cannot treat every strain the exact same way, and apparently this one is a special needs case.

Has anyone been successful w/ the Tangerine Dream? I feel challenged now! I have not tried to grow this, but have grown Pineapple Chunk, LSD, and Critical Kush (is it a Kush?), and have been satisfied w/ BF thus far.

Just started BFs Pineapple Chunk, most seed banks/growers, I don't get most seeds to sprout. So I started all 5. Have 5 plants, and they are growing good. Am interested in trying it once they are ready to smoke. Going to try to get the Red Dragon everyone is talking about. In the past I have focused on Holy Grail 69 from Samsara Seeds. 21% THC, CBD not listed but cures my leg and back pain. Will update on how the Pineapple chunk is doing.

Bought a 5 pack as well as a 10 pack of critical kush from Barney's farm. Germd then all at the same time. 2.5in rockwool cubes socked in tap water set to a pH of 5.5. All seeds germinated within a few days. Going into a 2000w room set up with DWC bins. Four bins with four plants in each bin. Expecting over 2lbs with no hermies or males. Honestly not a lot to ask for out of feminized seeds. Give your plants what they need with minimal stress and you will get over a 90% success rate as most breeders boast. They don't lie when they clame that.. They just provide their plants with optimal conditions whereas most less experienced grows, do not. Hense why BF such a commercial company has the most overall complaints. I will keep people posted threw my entire grow to show what right conditions can do for a grow.

I have a Barneys Farm G13 Haze at day 128 right now looks like she could go 160, not running this one again its too long for me. I also got a Cheese pheno from the Pineapple Chunk that I am really liking right now, smell is intense!

Been growing Barneys Farm Night Shade fore 5 years straight. When you find this quality of smoke you just done need to look any longer. All Fem's, no hermies, each plant yielded 1/2 lb dry weight, couch lock high with a small up to it.

I am germinating 4 pinapple chunk, 2 critical kush, 2 tangerine dream all barney farm ill let yins kno how that goes. But I also have 4 afgooey from strain hunter, 1 purple paralysis from cream of the crop, 2 blue dream from humboldt seeds, 1 white widow from royal queen seeds, and 1 northern lights auto from royal queen seeds all female seeds in a 6x9 room with 1 400hps 1 600hps and a 1000hps so thats 2000watts total grown in dwc 5gal buckets with 4 week veg bc if I veg any longer I dnt think they will fit in the room but im defanitely gna train them.last grow i had only 12 and got about 5lbs lbs but i def think the training multiple topping and super cropping did alot for yield.but i veged for a lil over 6 weeks and i bent all the plants completely over at like 3 1/2 weeks so all branches coming out would turn into tops then fimd some and topped the rest and about a week into flower i super cropped them and tied other branches down to make even more tops there were nice big buds even on the bottom of the plants i had only 2 bf strains in that grow one was pineapple chunk that got huge!! And i had a tangerine dream that was amazing but only got arounda lil under 5oz but i dnt kno y people are complaining mine was falling over like crazy at 63 days anyways got chopped at 72 days and people were goin nuts for it. itmite of been the nutes or mabey the grow like soil or hydro and did u go with chems or organic and wut kind of soil or wut type of hydro setup mabey the watts and lights u have mabey to much or too little watts for them or the temp or humidity or fresh air flow any of these thing could make a major diffrence or even ruin ur buds making them less potent. Mabey ur roots too cold if ur plants were on the ground and it was winter werent getting what they wanted. For example i ordered a bunch of seeds and i gave my friend 2 diffrent seedlings we grew them at the same time and harvested 2 days apart at 20% amber and mabey 75% cloudy and we had the same watts but my room was a foot longer the strains were grandaddy purps and blue cheese.. and he has around the same expierennce as me and not only were my branches full of fat buds but they were soo much more potent too mine came out super dank and his was like average mids so in my opinion I could be so many reasons y some of the tangerine dream yins grew was weak and u didnt like it and some ppl got sum dank shit. It jus mite be sum plants like what ur doin and how ur controlling ur setup and some dont. Ive even grown clones of a cupl strains that turned out to be some fire and way better then the mother plant.and also grew a cuple that wasnt as good as the mother there was probably a problem in ur grow room that some strains jus dnt adapt as well too as others like nutes, temp, humidity,water temp, light distance, a big temp drop or higher temp during lights off, light leaks, and soo many more things. Anyways does anyone have any kind of first hand info not jus something u heard or read at some point on the non barney strains that I listed.

You're at 18 weeks. That has to be done. No way it could go 25 weeks. It's not uncommon for Sativas to continue stacking new calyxes on top of each other in a foxtail which will continue spitting out white pistils giving the appearance that it's not "done".

Have you checked this under a scope, or are you basing this just off of the look of the plant?

I'm assuming that you're talking about an indoor grow...
