openthebox Posted February 8 Share Posted February 8 Had great results on the glow by grounded, the rainbow Z freebie wasn’t bad but no keepers out of the free 3 seeds. Personally I wouldn’t touch the RS11 cross from them though - they had troubles with the seeds, there was meant to be a whole range of crosses releases but they never made it to market - I presume due to the bad germ rates that were touted, now only 1 rs11 cross from grounded was released. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
openthebox Posted February 8 Share Posted February 8 (edited) Solfire gardens is mid price, I think fantastic value for access to top genetics when you consider what you get back - the results were fantastic, 2 out of 3 block monsters were solid keepers. If you’re for crazy USA flavours - find Clearwater genetics - some of the best and their genetics are being used by jungle boys etc. make sure you find their direct website, it’s USA based but they ship to UK, by far the best prices and selection of their seeds you will find online.

Ned The Head Posted February 8 Share Posted February 8 I’ve run Blue Fizz, Raspberry Z, Piñata and Pink Limez (none of 7 Vitamin Z seeds germinated) by Grounded Genetics. Good looking plants with interesting terp profiles. Lacking in effect. Only one plant I’m running again (Blue Fizz). If I could spend the money again I’d probably give it to Karma (at least with the criteria I was after at the time). Good luck with your hunt. 4 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This is what I mean, things can look good smell good and taste good and for some folks that's all they want but well worth knowing they lack a bit of poke. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Part of my problem is I go hunting when I'm ready to start a new run and that's dumb. I should be hunting all the time and grabbing good packs when they are available and / or I can afford them. I'll be ready for later this year though. I plan on taking the summer off and not running a grow as drying and humidity and blah blah blah - plus I promised Mrs Delta I would pack it in for a bit. If I had the cash and the time I would have grabbed some Solfire Mind Melter (they never did reply to contact via their form and email) and run them up against something else decent to compare. I have a pack of Headbanger though to go through and plan on making that my next regs run. Given me far too many new seed options to think about though (thank you!) - it's a bit grim to realise you probably don't have enough growing years left to try them all 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MistYGr33n Posted February 10 Share Posted February 10 I dont buy surplus seeds anymore due to me having too many in the past. My current collection consists of: Subbies Haze x Smile B line f2s Smottie remix Ugorg Exodus bx1 Killer Colada Killerskunk Authentic Genetics Skunk #1 IBL NL#2 IBL OG Kush x NL#5 The AG seeds are for breeding purposes to be used as base plants for crosses. The Ugorg i bought before i returned after my 7 year break away from growing and i didnt know about all the drama. The subbies came from subscription. I will buy 2 Solfire strains but they will be for fem seeds and i want a new breeder to purchase from after losing Ugorg. Also to be used for crosses. To burn through these seeds i will be running 12 plants per tent as a sog. Got to take males and potential mothers into account as well. Its still 2-3 years work with just those seeds mentioned above. MistY 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DeltaMelter Posted February 10 Author Share Posted February 10 For this run I've gone with Humboldt Seed Company beans I already had in the fridge, can't really wait any longer for any other stock to appear but I'll spend the next 6 months hawking beans I actually want, ready for a grow at the end of the year / 2025. As my Volcano vape is on the fritz I'll no doubt need that cash in a bit. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DeltaMelter Posted February 11 Author Share Posted February 11 Fuck it, I think I'm going to be using the money I "saved" not buying new beans to buy a new bar-style light for the 4x4. Investing in more yield seems a sensible bet, If I can pull 18 zips from 9 plants in short order (1 month veg) I'll be happy. I might be able to pull 8 from the 3x3 if I'm lucky. I've already purchased a bar light for the 3x3 too so I'll fill both, hopefully wall to wall and then quit for the summer. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LK1 Posted March 18 Share Posted March 18 These hype packs will be very hit or miss the best I've had was seed junky wedding cake x gelato 33 - these packs birthed what it now known as ice cream cake most disappointing was OZ kush from dying breed seeds - over 200 quid and the first pack didn't germinate, then seedbank sent another pack that also didn't germinate.

They need to periodically breed out to keep germination potential and vigour on-point.. It seems a lot of breeders are just constantly incestifying their strains without consideration for these factors. As an example, it seems DJ Short has worn out his Blueberry at F6 from reports of inconsistent growth I've read about..... In cereal grain production, they only have B C1 C2 C3. B is the original breeding stock, which goes to make the C1 that farmers use to breed more seeds to make C2. C2 is planted to make C3. The C3 is only used for making food. After C2 the genetic integrity of the bred strain is considered to be too unpredictable to seed out again. Edited March 18 by catweazle1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bulldogbill91 Posted March 25 Share Posted March 25 (edited) Once the tea time arrive I would like to send 2 seeds in and hopefully Be passed on to 2 growers on here, I'm not the best grower so would like 2 people to give them a crack if that's possible and put this shit to bed just ordered some mind melter from solfire coming from the states would like to chuck 2 beans of them into the site as well for a couple people to try maybe a cotc winner or something I'll let Bossman decide Edited March 25 by Bulldogbill91 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I wish I could help mate but discussing these things on here is not permitted due to uk420s affiliation agreements. basically their sponsors indirectly control the content that can be posted onto this site, to stifle competition from other seed distributors etc. don’t know about the particular strain, but several uk based sites do sell Solfire genetics. Your best bet would be to Google something like Solfire genetics uk or something similar and have to hunt through the search engine results. best of luck! 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
