Underrated and Overloked Strains
- Thread starter ft100
- Start date
Sensi Skunk and Early Queen are two I rarely hear mentioned. A couple buddies got hold of some I grew around '03ish and they still ask about it from time to time... keep in mind they've smoked tons of killer shit since then... but those two still stand out in their minds. Both really mellow, super tasty smokes with well balanced highs.
I've seen Sensi Star mentioned several times in this post. Can't believe it could fall into this catagory???Probably the most potent I've ever grown, but I'd still rather smoke Early Queen or Sensi Skunk over Sensi Star 95% of the time(unless I wanna get stupid stoned)

the old positronics and kulu strains or the brand new one that resurfaced recently ?
the old posi stuff used to rules !
People will say time and time again that Northern Lights is played out, old and boring. Smoke a Northern Lights #2 sample and then make those same statements. Northern Lights #2 is highly overlooked.
Sensi Star
Hindu Kush

They still rule, the strains stil excist. Theyr just not around growers anymore, but that will come back. Oldskool stuff stil beats the new overhyped market any day.
I dont know alot about Kulu Seeds, never used theyr seeds before. All i know is that Wernard from Positronics stil has he's piece, he used the Posi Citral for the strain Double Fun. I also got some old seeds from Posi, cant wait to get them going.

One overlooked strain that I think is pretty amazing is Chocolate Trip. I was lucky enough to find a pack and it has been really good.
"Dutch Flowers Chocolate Trip
Type:
Lineage: (Indigo Diamond X Chocolate Thai) X (Chocolate Thai X Indigo Diamond)
Indoor Harvest Time: 50 Days
Outdoor Harvest Time:
Breeder’s Description: Chocolate Trip will please indoor growers looking for exotic sativa quality in a highly manageable hybrid exhibiting the curiously strong chocolaty sweetness and brain-wiring psychoactivity of fabled Chocolate Thai pure landrace. Chocolate Trip's stocky, tight-noded phenotype thrives under indoor lighting, and will reward with an abundant yield of dense buds of top notch headstash quality.
We obtained Chocolate Thai from growers in Hawaii (who also sourced our Lemon Thai, already offered here). The Chocolate Thai had a classically thunderous, soaring high that immediately won everyone's preference. Unfortunately, the superb quality came with a 14 week flowering period price tag. The buds were incredibly aromatic and resin coated, but very spindly, with strings venturing on their own out of the thin main floral cluster, giving it an overall skimpy braided look. Curious structure, definitely landrace looking, but hardly productive even outdoors. Our Chocolate Thai source had warned that to obtain a reasonable yield outdoors, his method was to crowd many plants in a limited space outdoors, in a style reminiscent of hemp grown for fiber.
While the Lemon Thai only needed heavy parent selection, the Chocolate Thai demanded a lot of work to make it worth growing for the indoor grower. We used an Indigo Diamond female crossed to a male Chocolate Thai and selected the best female out of over a hundred seedlings. This female was then pollinized with a pollen pool composed of the three best males of a twin cross where the roles were reversed, i.e. a Chocolate Thai mother crossed with an Indigo Diamond male.
The resulting Chocolate Trip passes with flying colours the flowering time and yield breeding goals: it takes around 50 days or less to flower, and is an extremely generous producer of hefty, thick buds that carry the trademark spicy sweetness of the Chocolate Thai. As a result of heavy selection, the Chocolate Trip exhibits an amazingly short and bushy phenotype: will finish under a meter (40 inches) tall if flowering is induced at 16 inches. This plant will yield an average of 4.5 ounces of exceptionally aromatic buds that retain the vanilla candy taste and trippy psychoactivity of the Chocolate Thai.
The Chocolate Thai has passed all its extreme sweetness and spicy exotic taste on to our Chocolate Trip. The taste is exceedingly sweet, and flavor is highly appealing with a very strong vanilla note over a peanut butter background. It is this extreme vanilla sweetness over a peanutty base that brings the smell so close to chocolate, although we are sure that the uncanny chocolate smell in some imported Thai is the result of a peculiar curing procedure that may include substances unrelated to cannabis.
Chocolate Trip's Indica base hits very hard, but still gives an extremely energetic, lucid, visual high. It has both a lot of "bass" and "treble", yet the overall tune is definitely speedy, like a dance track. The Chocolate Trip prowess is to satisfy the Indica and Sativa lovers equally, even when it is clearly sativa dominant in both high and taste. This allows for a powerhouse high, but there is no "dumb" or "lock" effect: remarkably cerebral and active, with a knack for inducing visuals (as some smokers report colours).
Stocky, tight noded phenotype, great yield, quick flowerer, Chocolate Thai high and taste with a hard punching Indica base make the Chocolate Trip an excellent all-around strain for growers looking for landrace qualities in an easy to manage plant."

Stonehedge is curiously underrated.
Old school strains....
Old school strains....
Hi All !
Here's an old school mix.....1986 SSSC Heavenly High
a "Texas Legend" thats what the catalog said...and the 1991 winner
Afghani in Oakland Cali.....anyway the Afghani was a male VERY POTENT/sticky/smelly??? The Heavenly is dynamite in a small package
the yield is low, so by crossing it to the male, it brought up the yield&
resin also....here's day 30 into flowering..... Peace!!
The ferts used are PBPBloom,Big Bud,Calmag+,Sweet berry,Carboload powder,Sensizym, & Liquid Karma....."Sweet 7" mix...and
once per week Maxicrop liquid seaweed + Blackstrap molasses added to the fert mix....thats it!!!! This strain is a 60+/- days to
harvest.....So these will be MONSTER BUDZZZZZ!!!!! in another 30 days.....Peace!

The one n only Fast Freddie.
This is most def a sleeper. I could go on and on about the pearl n da lights but don't have time. Try it, you might like it,lol.
I feel the Pearl shines alone, but a cross to a NL takes things to a new level. Talk about Mold proof, yes I said MOLD PROOF. I have grown the Fast Freddie in the Jungles of Hawaii, no worries. One time my crop got solid rain from WEEK 2 TILL WEEK 9 of Bud cycle, constant cool, wet, overcast conditions for 7 straight weeks and lost maybe 3 buds to mold out of 25 big mommas. They did not skip a beat, hard chunky nugs in the wet
