Just wondering what you would consider to be your best strain ever grown and why?



Trying to decide what to grow next and been mooching for something new to try, already tried power plants, white widow, skunk1, skunk11, Northern Lights, fancy something new, was thinking something from serious seeds but cannot make my mind up between ak47, white russian, chronic, or perhaps something entirely different to them.

Would also be useful to reffuly see what people are getting in terms of female/male ratio in order to ensure i buy enough seeds.
Any help would be a blessing.

The search function is your best friend to answer your question. It's been asked a million times........

Thanks matey

To put my head on the block as it were I believe Super Silver Haze by Mr Nice to have won the most cannabis cups - bit pricey though!

Out of all the strains I have grown (not many ), I'd say my Hawaiian Skunk by seedsman was my best smoke by far, very dreamy and definately different (11-12 weeks flowering), also good yield.

i had them for free as well

medicine by far is the best smoke in the uk there are things that can compete like cheese

You've smoked them all then to be able to say that?

no not atall ive smoked cheese though and everyone knows its the best but medicine beat it for me

Horses for courses, isn't it? Or is it one man's mead is another's poison? Who knows? Anyway, the point I'm trying to make is there's so many different strains out there, why not try them all? Buy cheap seeds to start with, to learn the basics (particularly if you're new to gardening), try different grow methods and mediums, learn how to take cuttings/clones, identify phenos, tell males apart from females, maybe even go so far as to develop your own strain(s) one day. In the quest to attain enlightenment, make note of the strains you have liked best, or have been most beneficial and grow those.

I think it's best to have a bit of variety in the grow myself, not just due to tolerance build-up, but because moods change and so on, you might need to relax one day, the next you have to write your memoires or something, times when indicas can help you sleep, times when you just want to soar and have just the right sativa for lift-off, or the perfect mix of both for an entertaining evening with friends.

It's all out there, in little packets of 5, 10, 13, 15, 20, or at home in 100s and 1000s, if you've learned to make your own effectively. I don't just mean hacks, or unwanted pregnancies, I mean actual cross-breeding programmes, tailored to suit your own particular needs, designed by yourself, to give you what you want from your weed. I can see landraces being the way forward, it's just a shame that Holland has been the only country for such a long time to be permitted to legally do research in that area on a commercial basis. I mean no offence to the Dutch by the way, I mean from a global research perspective, ie different ideas and strains and people and such.

So yeah, try a few out before you say one is better than the other, wonder what one would be like with the other, remember there are more strains than the Dutch offerings, dare to be different (but not too weird). Vive la différence!

i think the bud i'm smoking today is the best ever, i thought that with the one before and before, and i'm sure the next plant i grow will be the best ever, but then again the one i grow after that will be awesome, i grew some awesone pot last year and next year and the one that got me very high was the best of all and it was them all. and the first plants i ever grew the guy who sold me the cuttings said it was called skunk and it was awesome

Grandad - it's like pizza, even a bad one's good.

and no matter how good it might be it soon becomes boring

Too true!

My body also seems to get used to strains and the more I smoke the less high I become!

A new strain always seems better (if its good quality!)

ive found strawberry cough by dutch passion to be a strain i jus love to keep growing as its got such a lovely strawberryish taste an smell its just tooo nice, the flavour is like the smell so is very berryish, the potency isnt dome of the strongest ive grown but its deffinalty got a nice sativa kick that mellows off to a nice realxing indica stone so its one of my favourites,
there are others out there it jus depends waht qualities you want in the weed, wether its pure potency or flavor or size, an yeild or a nice mixture of all of them,
id say the strawberry cough has a good mixture of all the qualities youd want,
the others ive doen which surprised me was white berry from paradise seeds, it was some of the most potent frosty weed ever it really did live up to its name,( people thought it was laced with fibreglass at first, until they took a closer look), some of the frostiest ive grown but it wasnt that great on flavor, il grow this one again but mainly to breed in some more falvor.
if you can narrow down what you want in a strain then it will narrow down your options cos at the moment youl probably get a good thousand strains that are classed as some of the best strains out there by either the breeder or other growers,
the ones that win all the cups tend to be best for obvious reasons but its down to personal preference really.

this thread got me thinking. over the years i've smoked bud from sumatra and true nepolese temple balls and beautiful lebonese gold and red, zero zero and more and lots of stuff in the dam and i think bubblehash rates against any of them.

See you will never get a definitive answer, as we are all different and have different tastes. For example I grew out a whole pack of Strawberry Cough and didn't like it at all... In fact I thought it was really very over-rated strain... Nothing more than a nice name too me!

Out of all the strains I've grown, I'd say one particular MasterKush pheno was my favorite, with the Org. Cheese as a close second. Such a shame my friend didn't keep the MK for long.

If your getting serious seeds get the kali mist m8, i hadnt even considered it cos my mind tend to lead me towards indicas till my mate brought some round the other week, chopped at 9 weeks and it was lush, cant wait for my clone to arrive.

The bubblegum is really nice too, its a toughie for sure.

Do they now?
What tosh! Sorry man, but that really is a ridiculous claim.
Firstly, I doubt very much you have interviewed everyone - so such a claim is just nonsense!
Secondly, Cheese is by no way, no way in a million years "the best". The original Cheese is just a rather good Skunk No.1 pheno. I like it, but rarely keep it as a mother because IME its just not quite there as a keeper. Why? Because I (and this has to be about individual experience surely) find it is very easy to build a tlerance to it, as in smoke it for three days and get thoroughly bored with it. And others I know have the same opinion - easy to get tolerant.
Thirdly, the idea that there is a "best" is equally absurd - best by what standard, and who's opinion?

There is no definitive answer to this question. My own opinion is roughly in line with that of "grandad" - although I did not find Bubblehjash lived up to its rep. But again, personal experience.

Hey peeps,

Arnie loving ya sarcasim mate, reallycracks me up!

I think and again its my opinion....Amnesia Haze is the best strain, if ya looking to get high that is......

On the other hand, you cant beat a good old sit on ya couch and do sod allweed like Afghani....

Each to their own and all that shit though!

I wouldn't have cheese as part of my grow as much as i wouldn't have white widow, it does nothing for me whatsoever wow its tastes nice so does coca cola (not the drink) and that does nothing either, its a personal thing.
For me the best 2 strains i've ever had the pleasure of growing and toking are ESB bloody awesome taste and effect, and Sweetskunk x Congo Kandahar a bit long to flower but well worth the effort, an extremely potent taste and very high, high.

But then theres plenty more strains out there to try so its a evolving opinion although i doubt if either of the above will lose there appeal others however may well join them, like the Daughter oooh i did like the GD, and then there's and... i'll stop now before the drooling gets out of control again and ruins another keyboard.
