Most potent strain in todays market?

[SamSmith]

Ah... the memory of things more often than not becomes greater than it actually was at the time. Ever look at a commercial for a Big Mac that you haven't eaten in a year or more only to be terribly disappointed when you get one?

Back in the day the quality of weed varied quite a bit so when you got some really good stuff it stood out. Now most if not all of what you get is decent so the differential is not that far off.

Like the other have said. It's not the raw THC numbers but the terpenes that dictate the effects.

Finding a good breeder of a strain that posses the traits you want is the challenge. Most of the really good stuff I have gotten have come from USA breeders that are not the heavily advertised companies.

The issue that I have currently is the way stuff is bred. It used to be that a breeder would really work to develop a strain now they keep crossing crosses in hopes of finding something new that draws sales.

Lastly I have not observed a definite link to potency level by resin/thrichome density. I have grown some very frosty stuff that was middle of the road buzz wise. Most of the stuff I grow now gums up my vapes and gets all over your fingers and lips when you try to smoke it in a joint. Sticks to the grinder and your fingers. Again the buzz varies.

Future # 1 is a highly potent hybrid, whose effects start quickly and with great energy. It provides a stimulating, strongly euphoric high that also has psychedelic elements and expands the senses. At the same time, the effects are extremely physically relaxing and create a floating feeling of lightness and positive mood. This strain is suitable for sensual experiences and to get involved in a deep high. It is suitable for creative work, evening relaxation and leisure, but in no case when you need to be focused. Beginners will often find her too strong and should be careful with her. Overall, the dosage should be adjusted gingerly.

The flowers reach an amazing size and density. Throughout the flowering period, they pile up a thick glittering layer of resins on their surface what is a result of the enormous resin production. With 500 g m² indoors and up to 1kg per plant outdoors, it is one of the high-yielding varieties that are also interesting for commercial cultivation.

Now this sounds like what I'm looking for... the proof is forever in the pudding though and I'd have to grow some out myself to be convinced. What's your recommend for an ordering option?

It was a article I found
I copied and pasted it

How true it is I'm unsure
Though it would be good info for the question asked

Ahhh... and here I was thinking you were like a seed bank rep or something lol

 

[Diatomacious]

Cruel and unusual.... boooo

In both post I say
Article I found ??
How did you get seed rep from that ??

I'm not even stones yet

I guess it's just so well written and long and I was more or less expecting someone to come through on the resin gland of a plant I'm looking for that...

Anyway exactly what I'm looking for just with a first hand account of "yea it's the shit" or something

Gorilla glue auto feminised #4

I've grown it, I've got seedling Started now
And I'm going to do a monster Bruce Banner no 3 to see if I can get crazy THC levels from mine.
DWC, diy buckets with a solar air pump
And Bruce is going in a aquaponics system to increase its output hopefully

All I'm saying is the worst plant from quality genetics will always be better than the best plant from mediocre genetics. Those 2 plants I said were not as good were still better than anything you can buy off the street. If two white people have a baby it will not turn out black... that is genetics.

Potency isn’t the same as skin color.
Choosing based on thc% is a false path to follow. Don’t get caught up in that hype...

Science Reveals The Cannabis Industry’s Greatest Lie: You’re Buying Weed Wrong (And So Is Everyone Else)

Do high THC numbers matter? Only for sales: as researchers recently found, more THC doesn't necessarily get you more high.

You will never find the same effects that you found all those years ago. Chasing nostalgia is what almost all of us stoners do. The search is the fun part. Variety is what gets us high.
If you want a classic high, go with the classics. good sativas have longer lasting psychoactive effects than do indica in my experience.
Some breeders that I have good experience with are shantibaba, chimera and cannabiogen.

This is some Peyote Purple bud from one I grew a couple years back. As you can see it’s quite frosty, but it’s about the weakest bud I grow. Very very mild.

Sweet... some info I can use. Ordered and grew out too many nobody's already. These are on my list for next order. Definitely let me know how the Bruce turns out.

Oh btw, which breeder on the gorilla glue?

That's a good point. So much focus can be placed on THC% in advertising that often other contributing factors of the entourage effect go unsaid. I'm trying to understand myself what I should be aiming for. I have been looking at the strain Strawberry Cough which seems not on the top level when it comes to THC% but some folk are suggesting that it is quite special for less understood reasons. I just want to go straight to the primo strains and acquire them, but it is hard to work out what is really special and worth it. I will go take a read of that link you posted, it looks interesting.

That has stunning looking buds, and so frosty in appearance. It is very interesting that you have found it quite mild. I have seen numerous pics posted that have unbelievably frosty looking buds and I have wondered with that appearance does it slay all before it in the potency stakes. So it's really interesting to hear you confirm that it isn't necessarily the case.

I suppose the frost indicates a lot of resin glands, but there’s no way to know what the resin glands actually contain, just by looking.

 

[CannaFish]

Smoke test is the only true test.
Selection is important no matter what seed line.
Auto flowers maybe convienent but i don’t see them winning any competitions outside of autoflower categories.
If you flind a good breeder of Cheese, chem/diesel, gorilla glue, or haze you can’t go wrong.

Yes, I had wondered the same thing, some plants trichomes can be quite short and not so numerous. The frosty ones are visually mind blowing.
A WW I grew was like this, and seemed to almost secrete it's resin so it appeared like it was running down the stalks and cover the sugar/bud surface. It probably didn't but just appeared like it was, however the bud was potent. Who knows!

Yes it is frosty with trichomes... but compared to the stuff I'm talking about it looks very dry in the resin department. Very hemp like. The crystal I grew looked a lot moister with all the resin that came out of the trichomes and the trichomes themselves were quite large. Like I said it oozed resin out of the bud... little resin balls would form about the size of pinky nail all over the bud where the resin would coat the outer surface.

100% false... potency is a genetic trait in marijuana... all the offspring of the super crystal had terrific resin production as well.

They really don't say who the breeder is. If they ship to the US I'll try some out. I know Mocha had some nice looking buds I was thinking of examining more closely

Hey any help at all at this point is appreciated everyone... I want to quit hemp farming and become a marijuana farmer.

I think a lot of those claims about THC percentage are a load of crap... not saying they all are but it's just too easy to take some garbage and claim it's got XX% in order to make the sale.

All these inferior strains makes me wonder what happened to the good shit I used to smoke back in high school... 80's. Can you say government conspiracy?

The moisture percentage can have a significant impact on the percentage of thc claimed as results are given on a dry weight basis.
