Don't be modest. That's some nice looking green. It's much easier to prove you have a valid point by showing me you know what you're talking about instead of bashing a seed company and showing me magazines lol. I agree genetics play a major roll, but I've come to find out some people will grow better weed from a seed of schwag than some people will grow with $250 in expensive seeds. Some would disagree, but I say technique and care play a MUCH MUCH MUCH larger roll in the end product ... my opinion tho .... is that high times btw ? if it is the new issue has a very interesting article on new balms and smokeless products a cancer survivor came up with .... it's on the same page w/ the article on grape ape
yes technique plays a much larger role, if you can't grow for shit it don't matter what seeds you buy, you will end up with a similar product, but i know 100% i got the technique down and a whole load of knowledge on growing, i could better use my time to help others, but it doesn't work on a forum like this, as soon as i say something theres 10 other people who say different, its just the way forums work, theres a whole bucket load of misinformation on this site.
You can read back through my posts again,
you asked what strain i answered, i said bubblelicious because its the only strain i like of theirs.
i grew their white rhino white widow and snow white and found it almost impossible to distinguish between.
ak48 i never bothered with, it may well be ok smoke, but its not ak47 and its nothing like it, and before you say how can you say that if you haven't tried it, well ak48 is short and mostly indica and can finish in 48 days, ak47 is 20%+ thc sativa that grows qiute a bit taller than an indica and won't be done in much less than 65 days, so its clearly not the same thing,
nirvana contradict themselves in so many areas like k2 for example, this is not quite as heavy as a white strain, well what is a white strain, according to nirvana its a strain that glistens in thc giving it a white coat, well surely any plant that is 20% thc is a white strain in there book, so everything else on their site that isn't in the white strain section and is 20% thc either isn't 20% or its a white strain in their eyes.
homegrown fantaseeds who also produce a k2 plant say its a sister of a widow, which in my book would make it a white strain, i class white strains as anything that comes from the widow family, such as snow white, k2 or whatever.
the fact of the matter is that all other seedbanks produce original versions of nirvana's stock that are better but more money, they are also f1's and not f2's like nirvana have, so your going to get more plants that match the description your buying.
nirvana's blue mystic i didn't like i found it a very poor plant, very weak, not in potency terms but just in general plant quality.
Jock horror is a sloppy jack herer copy which i didn't think too much of, their big bud strains are just god damn awful,
as i said earlier in the thread, you can get good homegrown results using nirvana stock but you will never get amsterdam coffeeshop weed which is what i aim to grow,
i'm sorry if i set my sights a little higher
