I'm sure Canadians are getting some seriously dank cuts, but California just makes the most noise.Is it me or do us Canadians get ripped off when it comes to genetics. Between the US and the UK we really don't get much to compare. If if wrong please correct me and point me in the right direction. Legalization made things even worse here since now they are taking a pretty hard stance on seeds and where they come from. A lot of suppliers just stopped
You have inspired meFurther, anyone who wants to be a breeder can just buy a bunch of seeds, smoke a bowl and come up with some names and marketing bullshit, and 'poof' you're a breeder.
Dynasty Genetics, is an excellent breeder. Consistently great genetics.
I bought some Banana Jack OG from Subcool's, 2/10 germinated.
Nirvana, bought about 10 packs, literally 1 seed germinated (Master Kush), all the others had black mold after 24 hours in a paper towel.
Turdburglar is a great seed c.... wait a minute WHAT THE?!?!?!
Anyways, regardless of genetics, or how they were obtained, if the breeding program produces top notch germination rates, well, it is service that is needed.
I've spend a small fortune on seeds in the last 10 years, over 50-100 different companies and what has stuck out for me has been Sin City Seeds, Humbolt Seed Organization, Ken's Grand Daddy Purp and maybe a few others.
With these companies I can buy a single pack, and know that I will get high germination rates. The rest is up to me.
I remember buying literally 30 packs of Rare Dankness, and maybe got 10 seeds to pop. That was a terrible experience and really put me off from buying seeds for a few years.
It's true, anyone can slap some strains and names together, market and be a "breeder", but the true breeders with passion and who put all their efforts into providing a great product, geared towards customer sastisfaction, and providing a superior product. I will never hate on that, as I am out tens of thousands to breeders who give 2 ****'s.
I think this thread will benefit from some pics.

Here is some Dream N' Sour, from Sin City Seeds. They are at least a few years old and gave me perfect 15/15 germination. Sour Jack is one of my all time favorite strains as well, quick flowering sativa dominant plant, which smells of lemon candy and chocolate, sometimes a bit more berry, but gives amazing yeilds and super high potency. I can't wait to see the outcome of the 15 different plants I got for $130.
Worth!
I'd also like to point out, that if seeds are placed in the market, and have low germination rates... Well it's obvious the company knows about it, have they not tested their genetics? And if they have such low germ rates, why did they release them? It's super easy to wait run a crop to fruition and collect seeds and sift out the bad. Took me a couple hours to sift through 2000-3000 seeds and pick out the 750 tiger striped seeds for storage. The under developed seeds I simply flushed down the toilet.
The companies with bad seeds, know they are of low quality. So there is a lot of people getting screwed deliberately. I feel sick thinking about it because I am one of them.
Government rules allow me only handful of weaker genetics, I couldn't even buy seeds from them if I wanted to. I rely on good, trustworthy breeders who put significant effort and thought into their strains and customer satisfaction.
Thank you to all the breeders who think of others.
I'm sure Canadians are getting some seriously dank cuts, but California just makes the most noise.
I mean really when it comes to indoor a Russian could grow weed just as good as a Californian. Sure they won't have access to the clone onlys but the seed versions do have potential to be better, especially with a little pollen chucking and lots of selection.
I definitely think it's just more to do with the fact that we don't really hear too much about Canada. Also I'm sure Chimera and all have some really nice clones. I don't really know why but people seem to look to California a bit too much. GSC is a low yielding, very herm prone strain clone, it may be dank but is it really that dank?
I've definitely heard GSC is no better than a good OG. Then you have Blue Dream which is nothing more than SSH X Blueberry, I could probably do pretty close if I selected parents from 50+ of each strain then selected the best mom out of 50-100.
This is very helpful. I just finished my first grow and I'm looking at different strains but it's completely overwhelming. I saw some high quality plants from In House Genetics and have been trying to find out about them but can't seem to get a lot of information. They're not as known as the more established breeders - which is not a negative necessarily.Avoid those with 100s of different strains, no one can breed that many new strains and test them, in most cases what you get are 200$ untestet seeds made by either reversing a dispensary bought clone and crossing it with another clone, or some male selected from too few seeds crossed to some clones they bought, its mostly a name game, 90% of all breeders care more about matching popular names instead of looking at what traits will compliment each other.
