[Lester Beans]

Like the title says....what is the best, most potent, most flavorful or you enjoyed the most so far in 2025..and why?

Great thread Lester What have you been smoking?

I've been enjoying Capt. Kryptonite's Abusive x Bubba and Ot1's Oldtimes. Both bangers of a high. That's the reason... The highs are all positive in nature and allow me to function whilst being extremely lifted to the point of way beyond.

All in the high and the qualities of the high bro and how they make me feel and react to my surroundings.

It is important to me for a strain not to elevate my ego to the point of getting argumentative but to remain open to all influences from everywhere without judging, if this makes any sense at all.

I like nature and meditating so the highs have to promote this. To have pain killing properties and muscle relaxant properties is great too. Laughter and giggles are great to have back within a strain too.

I personally don't care a massive amount for taste. I would prefer great tasting weed but I can suck on a sweet while smoking if it tastes bad

What have you enjoyed smoking?

Zombie Kush from Ripper Seeds was my winner from last year's season.

 

[FellaAndrene]

Paraselene - one of my own experiments. Dinachem (Guava IX S1) x Dog Patch (Chem D x Chemdog '91 BX2).

I like her high. It seems to ease my natural anxieties without making me absent-minded. Keeps me grounded, centered, and connected.

Chems were never really a thing here in Northern Europe, yet these Chem lines somehow remind me of the varieties that were around in the early 2000s. All the Khyber-Nepalese hybrids etc.

I've been enjoying ink drawing more and more, working for several hours in one sitting, fully absorbed in the deep nostalgia this stuff conjures up in my mind.

Also, it's the best-yielding cut in my collection at the moment. So, naturally, I've been enjoying her the most.

Great post!

I really have not had a lot of new variety so far this year. I'm still enjoying my volunteer plant from last season. She's a dream to smoke. MAHA's Mind Blower x Sour Bubble. Definitely the best I have smoked this year.

Also found some two year old OGKB 2.0 that was surprisingly potent and great before bed.

Few months I will harvest several different new to me strains and hopefully will have something to further add to this thread.

I'd love to hear what y'all are enjoying in the pipe papes or vapes

Triangle Kush

 

[BCBIGBAG]

Death Bubba x Ice Cream for Indica and Harmony x Super Silver Haze for mostly Sativa are standouts

 

[aCBD]

Not far into 2025 but on the hunt and got one absolute favorite so far.

Beasty / TH Seeds - uniform plants, dense buds, one pheno reeks like pure garlic in a hot cooking pan, loud strain, high yield, fast onset of effects like heavy body load and stoned head feeling.

The most important and best thing is, that it works great against Insomnia.
I sleep like a stone and wake up refreshed. Good smoke for the late evening.

Two things; a Silver Pearl F5 from some random guy on IG. They're all amazing, fantastic high, with a crazy unique flavor. All plants were like clones. Going to have to make a half baked reproduction from my last 9 seeds. I love this weed.
The other is one of my own creations. It's GG4 x Velvet Buzzsaw (Original Haze x The White) x (A5 x Mirakel Thai). Those combined wonderfully. Long spear shaped buds, great energetic high but has a full stone as well, but the flavor and smell it leaves are the best. Pure frankies in the air, but the flavor has that and just the right amount of chem funk from the GG4. I love this weed too.

 

[CannaRed]

My new all-time fav is a Permanent Marker S1 from ESCC. I love the stink. I can smell it over everything else in the room. I have too much of a tolerance for anything to really break thru, but a friend said this was the strongest in a long time. Everyone loves it, it was gone in a weekend.
My next favorite is a Critical Mass clone I was given years ago but still my strong and stanky. It was found in a pack from Canuck.

 

[PadawanWarrior]

Lately clone only GG4 is what I've been smoking 90% of the time. I can't believe I passed on growing it for so long. I didn't know what I was missing.

 

[Finepointcanon]

For me it's an F13 x Temple Flo (F13 BX) F2 I made from Josh Blue's stock, a really cheesy dense blue plant with a buzz similar to a 1/2 tab of lsd but also relaxing. A creeper where you forget that you smoked after about 5 minutes and just sit there smiling.

 

[bigsur51]

triangle kush x Durban poison

works for me , nice balance of chill and energy

very loud lemon pledge overtones of anise pepper

yields 2-4 pounds outdoors , harvest early October 37 degrees longitudinal

plant is on the left side

 

[PadawanWarrior]

I love GG4, but I'd say Arctic Cookies is my strongest strain. Just bagged up the last batch tonight. I wouldn't recommend smoking this strain if you have no water nearby. It will make your mouth dry.

Boo's cut of Truffle Treats started the year off pretty strong aint gonna lie..........I have high hopes its early yet.

 

[Prs2xs]

I was pleasantly surprised with "island time", a cross of Jamaican with Maui. Seeds were cheap, but a good producer and a very nice buzz! Nice to get some good quality seed for cheap!

Cheap seeds resulting in killer herb is always a bonus. I have found so much gold in cheap seeds. I'd love to see this Jam x Maui.

Beautiful nuggetry Dogster! What is the flavor like on those sparkly gems?

 

[Hash Artist]

I’ve been smoking on some headbanger and a long flower Frankie’s haze. The headbanger has great taste and the high is a strong head buzz without much crash. I love the Frankie’s because I can smoke it all day no ceiling great buzz taste is hazy frankincense cola musty basement.
