Default Strain acronyms seem to be way over used

For all of you veteran growers, all of these strain acronyms may be second nature but to a novice grower all they do is make for poor reading.

I've just read several threads and I honestly have no idea what strains they were talking about and it is frustrating. Plus there are so many strains now that the acronyms must be being re-used for more than 1 strain.

If I may make a suggestion / plea ...
If you are going to use acronyms to represent the strain names to save keystrokes then please mention the entire strain name at least once in the thread. This is how we newbies can learn.

Or maybe Logic could make a lookup table on this site

Example : SSH is easy to figure out but what the hell is 1IX or BX1 or JTR ?

Nice try rookie but you are gonna have to learn them all. Now get busy there is an acronym test in the morning.

LOL! It does get on the nerves doesn't it? People just whip the letters out and I used to be scratching my head try to decipher them.
