I like most everything I grow. One plant that is not as potent may have more of a medical effect, more relaxing. The weed that other people rave over I don't usually like all that much.... so it's all subjective.
Right now I am looking for fairly tall plants that are fems, those are on the top of my list... tall plants because of the room I have and fems because of plant limits.

My faith in BOG is renewed, with a gift cut of sour strawberry kush
well ours is a short...very short list...the only true keeper we have ever found was in a $10buck pack of nirvana's jock horror...a couple of their other offering were also 'ok'... so making the Zach's favorite top 10 is...'nirvana'...
othe'sr that get a 'not-so-honorable-mention' are
rez - lots of hype..n we bought into it buying 12/15 diff packs..
sensi- not a keeper in a number of diff packs of various beans
mr nice... his ssh/mango haze, n 1-2 others were a 'best' 5 on the 'zach' rating scale of 1/10... him and rez should get together and massage each other.
bog... should have stayed retired
djshort- a 'master'??... bator...
hybrids from hell... can't rate em as none of his fuckin seeds sprouted...
wally duck... stay out in the bush...
serious seeds... u can't be serious
and there have been numerous others-
we are now growing some of ace's offerings,here's hoping..
in a nutshell, other then the jock we grew, i can't name one varierty that is equal (def not better), then the weed we were buying in the late 60's/70's...
breeders..HAAAA... a bunch of bullshit...

Dutchgrown-vigorous keepers, absolutly no disappointments
Cannabiogen- exploring new directions, very professional
Bog- slow in veg, no other complaints, worth the wait!
Mr. Nice & serious- best of the old Dutch breeders but behind the curve.
D\A / ;eserva ?rivada- solid, one of the first really repping cali genetics.
Sam-huge vigorous potent plants, must be doing something right!
Bodhi-I like his philosophy and his archive of mothers, you can tell he puts some thought into his work, and is always trying something new.
time will tell, same goes for a bunch of newer cali outfits ( hso, emerald triangle, riot, gdp, gage, etc.) banging poly hybrids and clone onlys.
I like seeing the cannabis breeding world expand beyond the small pool of Dutch breeders where I think things have stagnated for a while. Spain has good stuff going on, but the huge and rapidly growing and increasigly legitimate and competitive American market is the hotbed for cannabis breeding and will usher in a new era of ganja genetics the world has never known before.
My two sense.
Also looking forward to trying hortilab, karma, more! Also I think a small number of ic mag members are probably more skilled than many of these professional breeders.

So far the best I have found is through the private breeders section.. Most of the clone only's have come from personal grows..

Maybe most reliable breeders would be a better topic, or how about least reliable?
Least reliable breeders: Note! Not saying they don't have some good gear, I'm just saying there are some serious duds too, hermi issues, no germination, difficult keeper ratios...etc.

Nirvana is complete crap. I wouldn't recommend that anybody buys from this seed bank. You can hardly call some of their strains weed. The pictures may look good on the website, but they're deceiving. Very dissapointed with nirvana.
I have got much better results with some of Mr. Nice, G13 Labs & Dinafem strains.

Buy from America
fuck Euro TRASH
Dinafem? really? They don't even breed, they hire a Spanish company to do their work for them. There are a few companies in Europe I support, CSG for one, but come the fuck on, you live in WA. It's not like we are isolated from good genes here in the PNW

1. Private Breeders!
2. Mr. Nice/Shantibaba
3. ?
Have found quite a few keepers in Soma's gear too. Although I don't consider him a real breeder, he just makes polyhybrids (I've never seen any phenotype resemble another). But I have to admit I have always got decent keeper ratios and always found at least one per 10-pack (wouldn't buy all of his strains though)
-999. Greenhouse: by far the worst ganja I have ever grown (and have seen grown/smoked, they're way too popular over here). Their strawberry haze might be some of the worst genetics I've ever come across. I'd rather grow hemp. I think franco might know a thing or two but arjan is such an incredible asshole.

I gotta respectfully disagree... the 'best' herb we have grown is a cheap $10 pack of jock from nirvana... we have grown others from them , and most equal/on par with the other breeders.. except on price... I still can't believe how many times I was on seedbay ..refreshing like a nut, trying to get in on one of rez's auctions.. paying $200 (plus) for a package of 'hype'...
or paying $180 for some old mr nice's ssh... every lady we grew , we culled after 2-3 grows...
as someone said ...breeders...HAAAAA

Hey Zack, Thanks for the reply. Maybe i was a bit harsh, I did say "You can hardly call some of their strains weed." Some being the keyword there.
Good on you for stumbling across a keeper that only set you back $10 though. I guess it is hit and miss with a lot of breeders yeah?

I didn't find anything but extreme long flowering garbage in my pack of SSH either and far cry from the 9-10 week strain it's supposed to be. It actually really pisses me off when you grow out plants expecting them to finish in a reasonable amount of time and they end up going like 20 weeks. I know there is some good plants in MNS strains but you really have to like sorting thru a million pheno's from every end of the spectrum to find them.
Rez's SD IBL was the most money I have ever and will ever spend on seeds, 7 males, 3 females, 2 of them were crap but one was ohhh so good, Im still running it to this day 3 years later. It is the all time stinkiest plant I have ever come across.
I got my $ back on that deal by making a few hundred F2's with my keeper.
