Long time no see NT, good to see you round...
So much truth in this post, most companies work with very few actual lines nowadays. OG, Cookies, White, Diesel, Chem, just like the market dictates. But I do want to add in, the company/breeder you go with, does play an equally important part as the choice in line you pick... For instance when Cookies first blew up, there was a shit load of guys trying to get their hands on some seeds over at the mag... Out of the options were Cannaventure, and BCBD, unless you got the forum cut. We all know BCBD is sketchy at best...
I agree whole heartedly though, don't just grab whatever breeder is hyped or told to grab, I may throw a few suggestions of what I had luck with but everyone has different tastes...I'm leaning hard to fuely OG's currently, but I still plan on running a bunch of c99... IMO the best result comes out of having a clear idea of what you want in your purchase, and tracking it down in seed line... I think too many new guys just want the hardest hitting hype out there, without truly knowing what they look for in a line. But thats not my problem, my problem is too much expendable income spent on seeds for backlogging. I got a grip of old sensi stock hehehe. +1 on ndn's line I have back ups of all of mota's ndn crosses
