Names are way too overhyped and silly. I've grown a lot of different strains and often times things become cyclical and I start to think there's really only maybe only 2 dozen or so truly different strains, not thousands.
None really irritate me too bad but some are such a turn off it's hard to buy them. I cant see myself growing anything named after piss. I hate cotton candy, it's so damn gross to me so I could never grow something named that.
I think what gets under my skin the most is hype and hijackers.
Like Zkittles (another silly name) winning an Emerald Cup. That's cool and great for the breeder.
But within 6 months there's Zkittles autoflowers, feminized Zkittles from a half a dozen or more different breeders, and also crossed with Gorilla Glue, GSC, OG Kush and there might even be a CBD strain of Zkittles. You know damn well none of that new stuff has any connection what-so-ever to the Zkittles that won the EC. When I see that the breeder is immediately dropped from any consideration for me.
Well I guess a strain named “ Piddles” is right out then. :)
The original Cookies and cheese strains are some of the best imoI wont say specific names. Cause I just can't bring myself to do it.
But anything with girl scout and or cookies, or diesel, or cheese, or sour, or anything like that I automatically dislike.
There are some stupid strain names out there, but I do love telling people that I have a closet full of Agent Orange. The looks I get are priceless.
I've been eyeing that up here in the store, it looks like fire for sure.Try some Sunday Driver:fire:
I think its cool, some of the strains I am growing right now mostly have been named by the area in which their landrace parent strain comes from. Kabul, Kalashnikov, Baikal.
I see where youre coming from BC, especially in the days of legalization and trying to prevent innocent youth they should be trying to get their hands on some girl scout cookies. But at the same time im with @1diesel1 and how they crack me up. I think its hilarious when relatives ask me what im growing and Im like some peyote cookies, or green crack, etc.
Have yet to tell them anything like tranny panties or stripper piss
Since this is the new era of cannabis i hope that there will be soon some changes in the names.
I hope that names will become codes for plants that will tell you what you have.
Let me give an example: 80S/lem
That would mean 80% sativa dominant with exprest lemonin terpins or something like that
Please don't attak me it's just a suggestion.
I wish you all happy growing experience
I enjoy the imagination of some names , Also appreciate the serious breeders products that have names with clue to lineage. - That helps . It's difficult for me to separate the breeders that have serious time invested vs chuckers fast bucking a name ........... all in allllll the enormous variety is amazing........... catchy names for marketing - doesn't bother me......... ''sticks and stones ''
If i had to gripe it'd be on the ''initials'' in the threads - spell it out ONCE ...... I'm getting better and a couple familiar but a lotta dam guessing . Knowledge base here is mind boggling for someone new to knowing (( any )) names .....beyond skunk or christmas tree...... Diggin the threads / breeders with HISTORY lineage of their endeavors ... or long time clone lines ...........WOW
Dam bro you’re missing out on some fine stains jus because of a name. I do agree that some of the names are ridiculous, but this shouldn’t be a reason not to try them. I’m sure we all have a couple friends with some odd names but that doesn’t keep us from hanging out with them, just because they’re parents gave them a different name than we’re used to. Idk I say try them, you might like them. I’m still searching for a strain I had years ago in MT called black coal it was some fineeeeee smoke.
I see you, fellow Kalashnikov grower! I've got a bunch of their stuff going at the moment and it's been phenomenal.
There are some absolutely ridiculous beer names though. Raging Bitch, Tramp Stamp, Moose Knuckle, Arrogant Bastard, Big Cock...
